Jeremiah 42
1 And they approached all [the] commanders of the armies and Johanan [the] son of Kareah and Jezaniah [the] son of Hoshaiah and all the people from [the] small and unto [the] great.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo anene othe a mbũtũ cia ita, hamwe na Johanani mũrũ wa Karea, na Jezania mũrũ wa Hoshaia, na andũ othe kuuma ũrĩa mũnini nginya ũrĩa mũnene, magĩthiĩ harĩ
2 And they said to Jeremiah the prophet may it fall please supplication our before you and pray for us to Yahweh God your for all the remnant this for we are left a few from many just as eyes your [are] seeing us.
Jeremia ũcio mũnabii, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Twagũthaitha ĩtĩkĩra kũigua gũthaithana gwitũ, ũhooe Jehova Ngai waku nĩ ũndũ wa matigari maya mothe. Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa ũroona, o na gũtuĩka rĩmwe twarĩ aingĩ, rĩu tũtigaire o andũ anini.
3 So he may declare to us Yahweh God your the way which we will go in it and the thing which we will do.
Tũhooere harĩ Jehova Ngai waku nĩguo atwĩre kũrĩa twagĩrĩirwo nĩgũthiĩ, na ũndũ ũrĩa twagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka.”
4 And he said to them Jeremiah the prophet I have heard here I [am] about to pray to Yahweh God your according to words your and it will be every word which he will answer Yahweh you I will tell to you not I will withhold from you a word.
Jeremia ũcio mũnabii akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩndamũigua, na no nginya ndĩmũhooere harĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu o ta ũguo mũnjũũrĩtie njĩke; nĩngamwĩra ũrĩa wothe Jehova ekuuga, na ndirĩ ũndũ o na ũmwe ngaaga kũmwĩra.”
5 And they they said to Jeremiah may he become Yahweh on us a witness of truth and faithful if not according to every word which he will send you Yahweh God your to us so we will do.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo makĩĩra Jeremia atĩrĩ, “Jehova arotuĩka mũira wa ma na mwĩhokeku wa gũtũũkĩrĩra, tũngĩkaaga gwĩka kũringana na ũrĩa wothe Jehova Ngai waku agaagũtũma ũtwĩre.
6 Whether good and or bad to [the] voice of - Yahweh God our whom (we *Q(K)*) [are] sending you to him we will listen so that this it may go well for us for we will listen to [the] voice of Yahweh God our.
Ũndũ ũrĩa ũgũtwĩra, ũrĩ mwega kana ũrĩ mũũru, nĩtũgwathĩkĩra Jehova Ngai witũ, o ũcio tũragũtũma kũrĩ we, nĩgeetha na ithuĩ tuonage maũndũ mega, nĩ ũndũ nĩtũgwathĩkĩra Jehova Ngai witũ.”
7 And it was from [the] end of ten days and it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah.
Mĩthenya ikũmi yathira, ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova nĩyakinyĩrĩire Jeremia.
8 And he summoned Johanan [the] son of Kareah and all [the] commanders of the armies who [were] with him and all the people from [the] small and unto [the] great.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩĩta Johanani mũrũ wa Karea, marĩ na anene othe a mbũtũ cia ita acio maarĩ nake, o na andũ acio angĩ othe kuuma ũrĩa mũnini nginya ũrĩa mũnene, makĩũngana hamwe.
9 And he said to them thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel whom you sent me to him to make fall supplication your before him.
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli o ũcio mwandekirie kũrĩ we ndĩmũtwarĩre mathaithana manyu, ekuuga:
10 Certainly [if] you will remain in the land this and I will build up you and not I will tear [you] down and I will plant you and not I will pluck [you] up for I am grieved concerning the harm which I have done to you.
‘Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũngĩikara gũkũ bũrũri ũyũ, nĩngatũma mũikare mũgaacĩire, na ndigacooka kũmũhurunja; nĩngamũhaanda na ndigacooka kũmũmunya, tondũ nĩndĩraigua kĩeha nĩ ũndũ wa mwanangĩko ũrĩa ndĩmũreheire.
11 May not you be afraid of [the] king of Babylon whom you [are] afraid of him may not you be afraid from him [the] utterance of Yahweh that [am] with you I to save you and to deliver you from hand his.
Tigai gwĩtigĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni, ũcio mwĩtigĩrĩte. Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, mũtikamwĩtigĩre, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ hamwe na inyuĩ, nĩngamũhonokia ndĩmũrute moko-inĩ make.
12 So I may give to you compassion and he will have compassion on you and he will restore you to land your.
Nĩngamũiguĩra tha, nĩguo o nake ndũme amũiguĩre tha, amũcookie bũrũri ũyũ wanyu kĩũmbe.’
13 And if [are] saying you not we will remain in the land this to not to listen to [the] voice of Yahweh God your.
“No rĩrĩ, mũngĩkiuga atĩ, ‘Ithuĩ tũtigũikara gũkũ bũrũri ũyũ,’ na nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũremere Jehova Ngai wanyu,
14 Saying In-deed [the] land of Egypt we will go where not we will see warfare and [the] sound of a trumpet not we will hear and for bread not we will be hungry and there we will dwell.
na kana muuge atĩrĩ, ‘Aca, ithuĩ tũgũthiĩ gũtũũra bũrũri wa Misiri, kũrĩa tũtagacooka kuona mbaara, kana kũigua karumbeta, kana ngʼaragu nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga mũgate,’
15 And now therefore hear [the] word of Yahweh O remnant of Judah thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel if you really you will set! faces your to go Egypt and you will go to sojourn there.
Kĩiguei ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova, inyuĩ matigari ma Juda. Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga: ‘Mũngĩkorwo nĩmũtuĩte atĩ nĩmũgũthiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri, na inyuĩ mũthiĩ mũgatũũre kuo-rĩ,
16 And it will be the sword which you [are] afraid from it there it will overtake you in [the] land of Egypt and the famine which you - [are] anxious from it there it will pursue closely behind you Egypt and there you will die.
hĩndĩ ĩyo rũhiũ rwa njora rũu mwĩtigĩrĩte, nĩrũkamũhĩta kuo, na ngʼaragu ĩyo ĩramũmakia nĩĩkamũrũmĩrĩra nginya bũrũri wa Misiri, na kũu nĩkuo mũgaakuĩra.
17 And they may be all the people who they have set faces their to go Egypt to sojourn there they will die by the sword by famine and by pestilence and not he will belong to them a survivor and an escapee from before the calamity which I [will] bring on them.
Ti-itherũ, arĩa othe matuĩte atĩ nĩmegũthiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri magatũũre kuo, makooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, na ngʼaragu, o na mũthiro; gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wao ũgaatigara kana orĩre mwanangĩko ũrĩa ngaamarehithĩria.’
18 For thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel just as it was poured out anger my and rage my on [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem so it will pour out rage my on you when go you Egypt and you will become an curse and a horror and a curse and a reproach and not you will see again the place this.
Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘O ta ũrĩa marakara na mangʼũrĩ makwa maitĩrĩirio andũ arĩa maatũũraga Jerusalemu-rĩ, ũguo noguo mũgaitĩrĩrio mangʼũrĩ makwa rĩrĩa mũgaathiĩ kũu bũrũri wa Misiri. Mũgaatuĩka ta kĩndũ kĩrume, na mũtuĩke kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi, o na kĩndũ gĩa gũtuĩrwo ciira, na kĩa njono; mũtikoona kũndũ gũkũ rĩngĩ.’
19 He has spoken Yahweh to you O remnant of Judah may not you go Egypt assuredly you will know that I have warned you this day.
“Inyuĩ matigari maya ma Juda, Jehova amwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Mũtigaathiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri.’ Menyai wega ũndũ ũyũ: Ũmũthĩ ũyũ nĩndamũmenyithia
20 For (you caused to err *Q(K)*) selves your for you you sent me to Yahweh God your saying pray for us to Yahweh God our and according to all that he will say Yahweh God our so tell to us and we will do [it].
atĩ nĩmweĩĩkire ũũru rĩrĩa mwandũmire thiĩ kũrĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu, mũkĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Tũhooere kũrĩ Jehova Ngai witũ; twĩre ũrĩa wothe ekuuga, na ithuĩ nĩtũkũwĩka.’
21 And I have told to you this day and not you have listened to [the] voice of Yahweh God your and to all that he sent me to you.
Niĩ nĩndamũcookeria ũhoro ũcio ũmũthĩ, no rĩrĩ, mũtiathĩkĩire Jehova Ngai wanyu harĩ maũndũ macio mothe aandũmĩte ndĩmwĩre.
22 And therefore assuredly you will know that by the sword by famine and by pestilence you will die in the place where you desire to go to sojourn there.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, rĩu menyai wega ũũ: Nĩmũkooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, na ngʼaragu, o na mũthiro mũrĩ kũndũ kũu mũrenda gũthiĩ gũtũũra.”
