Lamentations 2
1 How! he covers with a cloud in anger his - [the] Lord [the] daughter of Zion he has thrown from heaven earth [the] splendor of Israel and not he has remembered [the] footstool of feet his in [the] day of anger his.
Hĩ! Kaĩ Mwathani nĩakĩhumbĩrĩte Mwarĩ wa Zayuni na itu rĩa marakara make-ĩ! Nĩatungumanĩtie riiri wa Isiraeli, akaũharũrũkia kuuma igũrũ nginya thĩ; ndaaririkanire gaturwa ka magũrũ make, mũthenya ũrĩa aarakarire.
2 He has swallowed up [the] Lord (and not *Q(K)*) he has spared all [the] settlements of Jacob he has torn down in wrath his [the] fortifications of [the] daughter of Judah he has made [them] touch the ground he has profaned [the] kingdom and princes its.
Mwathani-rĩ, nĩameretie itũũro ciothe cia Jakubu atarĩ na tha; nĩamomorete ciĩhitho iria nũmu cia Mwarĩ wa Juda arĩ na marakara. Nĩagũithĩtie ũthamaki wa Mwarĩ wa Juda, na akagũithia anene ake, akamaconorithia.
3 He has cut off (in [the] heat of *L(abh)*) anger every horn of Israel he has turned back backward right [hand] his from before [the] enemy and he has burned Jacob like a fire of flame [which] it has consumed all around.
Rũhĩa rwa Isiraeli ruothe arũrengete arĩ na marakara mahiũ. Nĩeheretie guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo, gũkameeherera o rĩrĩa thũ ciamakuhĩrĩria. Nĩgũcina acinĩte Jakubu ta mwaki ũkũrĩrĩmbũka, ũrĩa ũcinaga kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ hakuhĩ naguo.
4 He has bent bow his like an enemy [he has] taken a stand right [hand] his like an opponent and he has killed all [the] delights of eye in [the] tent of [the] daughter of Zion he has poured out like fire rage his.
Ageetete ũta wake o ta thũ; guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo nĩ kwĩhaarĩirie. Arĩa othe maatũire makenagia maitho-rĩ, amooragĩte o ta marĩ thũ; hema ya Mwarĩ wa Zayuni amĩitĩrĩirie mangʼũrĩ make mahaana ta mwaki.
5 He has become [the] Lord - like an enemy he has swallowed up Israel he has swallowed up all palaces its he has ruined fortifications its and he has multiplied in [the] daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
Mwathani-rĩ, atuĩkĩte ta thũ; nĩameretie Isiraeli. Nĩameretie nyũmba ciake ciothe cia ũthamaki, na akaananga ciĩhitho ciake iria nũmu. Nĩaingĩhĩirie Mwarĩ wa Juda gũcakaya na kũgirĩka.
6 And he has treated violently like garden booth his he has ruined appointed place his he has caused to be forgotten Yahweh - in Zion appointed feast and sabbath and he has spurned in [the] indignation of anger his king and priest.
Nĩonũhĩte gĩikaro gĩake ta mũgũnda; nĩanangĩte handũ hake ha gũtũnganĩrwo. Jehova nĩatũmĩte Zayuni ariganĩrwo nĩ ciathĩ ciake iria njathane, o hamwe na Thabatũ ciake; nĩ ũndũ wa marakara make mahiũ-rĩ, akanyarara mũthamaki, o hamwe na mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
7 He has rejected [the] Lord - altar his he has repudiated sanctuary his he has delivered up in [the] hand of an enemy [the] walls of palaces its voice people have given forth in [the] house of Yahweh like [the] day of an appointed feast.
Mwathani nĩaregete kĩgongona gĩake, na agatiganĩria handũ hake harĩa haamũre. Nĩaneanĩte thingo cia nyũmba ciake cia ũthamaki kũrĩ thũ; iraanĩrĩra irĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jehova, o taarĩ mũthenya wa gĩathĩ kĩrĩa gĩathane.
8 He has planned Yahweh - to destroy [the] wall of [the] daughter of Zion he has stretched out a measuring-line not he has turned back hand his from swallowing up and he has caused to mourn rampart and wall together they have languished.
Jehova nĩatuire itua rĩa kũmomora rũthingo rũrĩa rũthiũrũrũkĩirie Mwarĩ wa Zayuni. Nĩatambũrũkirie rũrigi rwa gũthima, na ndaagiririe guoko gwake gũtige kũrwananga. Nĩatũmire njirigo na thingo icakaye; o cierĩ igĩgĩtuĩka cia kwanangĩka.
9 They have sunk in the ground gates its he has destroyed and he has broken bars its king its and princes its [are] among the nations there not [is] instruction also prophets its not they have found a vision from Yahweh.
Ihingo ciakuo nĩihorokeire na thĩ; mĩgĩĩko yacio nĩamiunangĩte, akamĩananga. Mũthamaki na anene akuo nĩmatahĩtwo magatwarwo ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, watho rĩu ndũrutanagwo, na anabii akuo nĩmatigire kuona cioneki ciumĩte kũrĩ Jehova.
10 They sit to the ground they are silent [the] elders of [the] daughter of Zion they have caused to rise dust on head their they have girded on sackcloth they have brought down to the ground head their [the] virgins of Jerusalem.
Athuuri a kũu kwa Mwarĩ wa Zayuni maikarĩte thĩ makirĩte ki; nao nĩmehurĩirie rũkũngũ mĩtwe, na makehumba nguo cia makũnia. Airĩtu a Jerusalemu mainamĩrĩire maturumithĩtie mĩtwe yao thĩ.
11 They have failed by tears eyes my they are in turmoil inward parts my it has been poured out to the ground liver my on [the] brokenness of [the] daughter of people my because faint child and suckling-child in [the] open places of a town.
Maitho makwa nĩmaroora nĩ kũrĩra, ngatangĩka thĩinĩ wakwa, naguo roho wakwa nĩũitũrũrĩirwo thĩ nĩ ũndũ wa andũ akwa kwanangwo, nĩgũkorwo twana na tũkenge tũraringĩkĩra njĩra-inĩ cia itũũra rĩrĩa inene.
12 To mothers their they say where? [are] grain and wine when faint away they like [one] fatally wounded in [the] open places of a city when pours itself out life their to [the] bosom of mothers their.
Tũrooria manyina atĩrĩ, “Irio na ndibei irĩ ha?” o tũkĩringĩkaga ta andũ matiihĩirio njĩra-inĩ cia itũũra rĩrĩa inene, o mĩoyo yatuo ĩgĩthiragĩra moko-inĩ ma manyina.
13 What? will I testify for you what? will I liken to you O daughter of Jerusalem what? will I make equal to you so I may comfort you O virgin of [the] daughter of Zion for [is] great like the sea brokenness your who? will he heal you.
Ingĩkiuga atĩa nĩ ũndũ waku? Ingĩkũgerekania nakĩ, wee Mwarĩ ũyũ wa Jerusalemu? Ingĩkũhaanania nakĩ, nĩguo ngũhoorerie, wee Mwarĩ ũyũ Gathirange wa Zayuni? Kĩronda gĩaku kĩrikĩte o ta iria. Nũũ ũngĩhota gũkũhonia?
14 Prophets your they have seen for you worthlessness and sham and not they have made known on iniquity your to turn back (captivity your *Q(k)*) and they have seen for you oracles of worthlessness and enticement.
Cioneki iria anabii aku moonaga ciarĩ cia tũhũ na cia maheeni; matiigana kũmũguũrĩria mehia manyu nĩguo magirĩrĩrie gũtahwo kwanyu. Ndũmĩrĩri iria maamũheire ciarĩ cia maheeni, na cia kũmũhĩtithia.
15 They have clapped on you hands all [those who] pass by of [the] road they have hissed and they have shaken head their on [the] daughter of Jerusalem ¿ [is] this the city that people said perfect of beauty a joy to all the earth.
Ehĩtũkĩri othe mahũũraga hĩ; mathekaga makĩinainagĩria Mwarĩ ũyũ wa Jerusalemu mĩtwe, makĩũragia atĩrĩ: “Ĩĩ rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo itũũra inene rĩrĩa rĩetagwo ũthaka ũrĩa mũkinyanĩru biũ, na rĩgeetwo gĩkeno gĩa thĩ yothe?”
16 They have opened on you mouth their all enemies your they have hissed and they have gnashed a tooth they said we have swallowed up surely this [is] the day that we have waited for it we have found we have seen.
Thũ ciaku ciothe ciathamagia tũnua igũũkĩrĩre; igũthekagĩrĩra na ikahagarania magego, ikoiga atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ nĩtũmũmeretie. Ũyũ nĩguo mũthenya ũrĩa tũtũire twetereire, na rĩu nĩtũwonete.”
17 He has done Yahweh what he purposed he has fulfilled word his which he commanded from days of antiquity he has torn down and not he has spared and he has caused to rejoice on you an enemy he has lifted up [the] horn of opponents your.
Jehova nĩarĩkĩtie gwĩka ũrĩa aathugundĩte; we nĩahingĩtie kiugo gĩake, kĩrĩa aathanire o matukũ ma tene. Akũngʼaũranĩtie ategũkũiguĩra tha, atũmĩte thũ igũkenerere, rũhĩa rwa amuku aku nĩruo atũgĩrĩtie.
18 It has cried out heart their to [the] Lord O wall of [the] daughter of Zion send down like river tear[s] by day and night may not you give rest to yourself may not it be still [the] daughter of eye your.
Ngoro cia andũ nĩirakaĩra Mwathani. Atĩrĩrĩ, wee rũthingo rũrũ rwa Mwarĩ wa Zayuni, reke maithori maku manyũrũrũke ta rũũĩ mũthenya na ũtukũ; ndũkahurũke, kana ũreke maitho maku mahurũke.
19 Arise - cry out (in the night *Q(K)*) to [the] head of [the] night-watches pour out like water heart your before [the] presence of [the] Lord lift up to him hands your on [the] life children your the ones enfeebled by hunger at [the] head of all [the] streets.
Arahũka, ũkayũrũrũke ũtukũ, rĩrĩa ũrangĩri wa ũtukũ wambagĩrĩria; itũrũraga ngoro yaku ta maaĩ mbere ya Mwathani. Ambararia moko maku na igũrũ kũrĩ we nĩ ũndũ wa mĩoyo ya ciana ciaku, o icio iraringĩka nĩ ngʼaragu magomano-inĩ ma njĩra ciothe.
20 See O Yahweh and look! to whom? have you dealt severely thus? will they eat women descendant[s] their children of health or? will he be killed in [the] sanctuary of [the] Lord priest and prophet.
“Wee Jehova, ta rora, na ũcũũranie: Nũũ ũngĩ wee ũrĩ weka ũguo? Andũ-a-nja nĩmagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũrĩa maciaro mao, o ciana iria marerete? Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai na mũnabii nĩmagĩrĩire kũũragagĩrwo handũ-harĩa-haamũre ha Mwathani?
21 They have lain down to the ground streets youth and old [person] young women my and young men my they have fallen by the sword you have killed in [the] day of anger your you have slaughtered not you have spared.
“Andũ ethĩ o na arĩa akũrũ makomete hamwe rũkũngũ-inĩ rwa njĩra, aanake akwa na airĩtu moragĩtwo na rũhiũ rwa njora. Ũmoragĩte mũthenya ũrĩa ũrakarĩte; ũmoragĩte ũtekũmaiguĩra tha.
22 You have summoned like [the] day of an appointed feast terrors my from round about and not he was in [the] day of [the] anger of Yahweh an escapee and a survivor [those] whom I had given birth and I had reared enemy my he has made an end of them.
“O ta ũrĩa wĩtanaga mũthenya wa gĩathĩ-rĩ, noguo ũnjĩtĩire maũndũ ma kũnguoyohia, makandigiicĩria mĩena yothe o taarĩ mũthenya wa gĩathĩ. Mũthenya wa marakara ma Jehova-rĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wahonokire kana agĩtigara; arĩa ndarũmbũirie na ngĩrera-rĩ, thũ yakwa nĩĩmanangĩte.”
