Jeremiah 33
1 While I was still being guarded in the courtyard of the palace, Yahweh gave me this second message:
Kane pod Jeremia oketi e agola kamane irite, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirone mar ariyo ni:
2 “This is what I, the one who made the earth, who formed/shaped it and put it in its place, say [to the people of Jerusalem]: ‘My name is Yahweh.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho, en ema nochweyo piny, Jehova Nyasaye mane olose kendo oketo mise mare, Jehova Nyasaye e nyinge:
3 Call out to me, and [then] I will tell you great and wonderful things that you have not known [before].’
‘Bi ira, kendo anaduoki, kendo ananyisi gik madongo ma ok ingʼeyo.’
4 This is what [I, ] Yahweh, the God whom [you] Israeli people [say you belong to], say: ‘[The men in this city] have torn down [some of] their houses, and [even parts of] the king’s palace, to get materials to strengthen the walls around the city, in order that [the soldiers of Babylonia will not be able to break through the walls after they climb up] the ramps that they have built against the walls, and [kill the inhabitants with] their swords.
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, wacho kuom ute manie dala maduongʼni kod kuonde dak mar ruodh Juda ma osemuki mondo tigo kaka pidhe kod ligangla
5 You are expecting to fight against the army from Babylonia, but [what will happen is that] the houses of this city will be filled with the corpses of the men of this city whom I will [allow to be killed] because I am extremely angry [DOU] with them. I have abandoned them because of all the wicked things that they have done.
kuom kedo gi jo-Babulon: ‘Ginipongʼ-gi gi ringre joma otho mabiro nego gi ich wangʼ mara kod mirimba. Anapand wangʼa ne dala maduongʼni nikech timbegi duto mamono.
6 However, [there will be a time when] I will cause the people in this city to be healthy and strong again. I will enable them to be prosperous and have peace.
“‘Kata kamano, anamigi ngima kendo chang; anachang joga kendo anami gibed gi mor kuom kwe mathoth kod rit mogundho.
7 I will bring the people of Judah and Israel back from the lands to which they were exiled. I will enable them to rebuild their towns.
Anaduog Juda kod Israel koa e twech kendo analosgi gibed kaka ne gin chon.
8 I will get rid of their guilt for all the sins that they have committed against me, and I will forgive them for their sin of rebelling against me.
Anapwodhgi kuom richo magisetimona kendo anawenegi richogi duto mag ngʼanyona.
9 [When that happens], all the nations of the world will rejoice, and they will praise me and honor me. They will hear about all the good things that I have done for this city and, because of that, they will revere me, and they will tremble because I have caused [the people in this city] to have peace and to prosper.’
Eka dala maduongʼni nomi abed gihuma, ilo, pak kod luor e nyim ogendini duto manie piny mawinjo gik moko duto mabeyo masetimone; kendo ginibed gi luoro mi ginitetni kuom gweth mogundho kod kwe masechiwone.’
10 And this is also what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘You people have said that this is a land where there are no [longer] any people or animals. But in the streets of Jerusalem that are now completely empty [DOU], and in the [other] towns in Judah,
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Uwuoyo kuom dala maduongʼni niya, “Osedongʼ nono chuth, maonge ji kata jamni modakie.” Kata obedo ni mier mag Juda kod yore mag Jerusalem odongʼ nono kamano, maonge ji kata jamni modakie, to ubiro chako winjo,
11 [some day] people will again be happy and laugh. Brides and bridegrooms will [again] sing [joyfully]. And many other people will also sing joyfully as they bring their offerings to me to thank me [for what I have done for them]. [They will sing this song]: “[We] thank you, the Commander of the armies of angels, because you are good [to us]. You faithfully love [us] forever.” [They will sing that] because I will cause [the people of] land to be as prosperous as they were before.’
mor gi ilo kuondego, dwond miaha kod wuon kisera, kod dwond jogo makelo chiwo mar goyo erokamano ne od Jehova Nyasaye. Negiwacho niya, “‘“Goneuru Jehova Nyasaye Maratego erokamano, nimar Jehova Nyasaye ber; herane osiko nyaka chiengʼ.” Nimar anaduog gweth ne piny mane gin-go chon,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
12 This land is [now] desolate. There are no people or animals living here. But [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say this: ‘In this land there will again be pastures/fields where shepherds will lead their sheep.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho: ‘Ka eri, mamono kendo maonge ji kata le, tiende ni e dalane duto nobedi kar kwath ma jokwath kwayoe rombegi.
13 Shepherds will again count their sheep as the sheep walk by, outside the towns in the hilly area, in the western foothills, in the southern desert area, in the land [where the descendants] of Benjamin live, around Jerusalem, and outside [all] the [other] towns in Judah.’ [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.
E dala manie piny gode, mago mantie e tie gode man yo podho chiengʼ kod mago man Negev, mantiere e gwenge mag Benjamin, e mier molworo Jerusalem kod dala mag Juda, rombe nokal kendo e lwet ngʼatno ma kwanogi,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
14 Listen to this! [I], Yahweh, say that there will be a time when I will do for the people of Israel and Judah [all the good things that] I promised to do [for them].
“‘Ndalo biro ma abiro chopo singruokna mar ngʼwono mane aloso gi od Israel kod gi od Juda,’ Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
15 At that time [DOU] I will appoint a righteous man who will be a descendant [MET] of King David. Throughout the land, he will do what is just and right.
“‘E ndalogo kendo e kindeno anami Bad Yath makare owuog e koth Daudi; enotim gima ratiro kendo nikare e piny.
16 At that time, [the people of] Judah will be rescued [from their enemies], and [the people of] Jerusalem will be safe. And people will say that the name of the city is ‘Yahweh [is the one who] vindicates/defends us’.
E ndalogo Juda noresi kendo Jerusalem nodag gi kwe. Ma e nying ma ibiro luongego: Jehova Nyasaye mamiyo wabedo jo-ratiro.’
17 And this is [also] what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘There will be descendants of King David ruling [MTY] Israel forever.
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Daudi ok nobed maonge gi ngʼato manobedi e kom duongʼ mar od Israel,
18 And there will always be priests who are descendants of Levi who [stand] in front of me and offer sacrifices that will be completely burned [on the altar] and who will burn grain offerings and [other] sacrifices.’”
kata jodolo, ma jo-Lawi, bende ok nobed maonge gi ngʼato machungʼ e nyima seche duto mar chiwo misengini miwangʼo pep, ka giwangʼo misengini mag cham kendo chiwo misengini.’”
19 [Then] Yahweh gave me this message:
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
20 “This is what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘[You] certainly cannot annul my promise/agreement to cause nighttime to follow daytime each day.
“Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Ka inyalo ketho singruokna modiechiengʼ kod singruokna motieno, mondo omi odiechiengʼ kod otieno kik bi e sechegi mowinjore,
21 Similarly, you cannot annul the promise/agreement [that I made] with King David, who served me [well], that there will always be descendants of his who will rule [Judah]. The same is true for my agreement with the descendants of Levi who are priests who do work for me.
bangʼe singruokna gi Daudi jatichna kod singruokna gi jo-Lawi ma gin jodolo ma yalo e nyima inyalo kethi to Daudi ok nobed gi nyakware manobed gi loch e kom duongʼ mare.
22 No one can count the stars in the sky, and no one can count the grains of sand at the seashore. Similarly, I will cause there to be a huge number of priests who are descendants of David and descendants of Levi who will work for me.’”
Anami nyikwa Daudi jatichna kod jo-Lawi ma yalo e nyima bed mangʼeny mokalo akwana ka sulwe manie kor polo kendo ma ok nyal pim ka kwoyo manie dho nam.’”
23 Yahweh gave another message to me. He said,
Wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Jeremia:
24 “Have you noticed/heard that some people are saying, ‘Yahweh chose two groups, the people [of Judah] and the people [of Israel], and [later] abandoned them.’ They are despising my people and saying that Israel no longer deserves to be considered a nation.
“Bende isefwenyo ni jogi wachoni ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye osekwedo dhoudi ariyo mane oyiero’? Omiyo gijaro joga kendo ok gikawo joga ka oganda achiel.
25 But this is what I say: ‘I will not change my laws that control the day and the night, the sky and the earth.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Ka dipo ni pod ok aketo singruokna godiechiengʼ gi otieno kod chike mogurore mar polo kod piny,
26 Similarly, I will never abandon the descendants of David or the [other] descendants of Jacob, and I will always allow descendants of David to rule the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will bring my people back to their land, and I will act mercifully toward them.’”
eka anakwed nyikwa Jakobo kod Daudi jatichna kendo ok anayier achiel kuom yawuote mondo obed jatelo ewi nyikwa Ibrahim, Isaka kod Jakobo. Nimar anaduognegi mwandugi mi anangʼwon-negi.’”
