Jeremiah 11
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Ma e wach mane obirone Jeremia koa ir Jehova Nyasaye:
2 “Hear the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
“Chik iti ne chike mag singruokni kendo inyis jo-Juda kod mago modak Jerusalem.
3 and say to them, the LORD, the God of Israel says: ‘Cursed is the man who doesn’t hear the words of this covenant,
Nyisgi ni ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach Israel, wacho: ‘Okwongʼ ngʼatno ma ok oluoro gima singruokni dwaro,
4 which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace,’ saying, ‘Obey my voice and do them, according to all which I command you; so you shall be my people, and I will be your God;
chike mane amiyo kwereu kane agologi Misri, e kendo maliet makakni mach.’ Ne awacho ni, ‘Luora kendo itim gigo duto machikou to unubed joga, an bende nabed Nyasachu.
5 that I may establish the oath which I swore to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey,’ as it is today.” Then I answered, and said, “Amen, LORD.”
Bangʼe anachop singo mane asingone kwereu, mar miyogi piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich’ ma en piny mauntiere kawuono.” Ne adwoko Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Amin.”
6 The LORD said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Hear the words of this covenant, and do them.
Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Go milome mar wechegi duto e mier mag Juda kod jogo manie yore mag Jerusalem: ‘Chikuru itu ne chike mag singruokni kendo ulugi.
7 For I earnestly protested to your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even to this day, rising early and protesting, saying, “Obey my voice.”
Kochakore kinde mane akelo kwereu koa Misri nyaka kawuono, ne asiemogi nyadingʼeny, ka awacho niya, “Luorauru.”
8 Yet they didn’t obey, nor turn their ear, but everyone walked in the stubbornness of their evil heart. Therefore I brought on them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they didn’t do them.’”
To ne ok gichiko itgi kata winja; kuom mano, negiluwo mana timbegi mag jendeke mag chunjegi maricho. Omiyo nakelo kuomgi kwongʼ duto mag singruok mane achikogi mondo gilu to ne ok girito.’”
9 The LORD said to me, “A conspiracy is found amongst the men of Judah, and amongst the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachona, “Nitiere winjruok ma lingʼ-lingʼ e kind jo-Juda kod jogo modak Jerusalem.
10 They have turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, who refused to hear my words. They have gone after other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.
Gisedok e richo mag kweregi, mane otamore winjo wechega. Giseluwo bangʼ nyiseche manono mondo gitinegi. Od Israel gi od Juda giduto oseketho singruok mane atimo gi kweregi.
11 Therefore the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on them which they will not be able to escape; and they will cry to me, but I will not listen to them.
Emomiyo ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Anakelnegi masira ma ok ginyal tonye. Kata bed ni giywakna, ok anawinjgi.
12 Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and cry to the gods to which they offer incense, but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
Mier mag Juda kod jo-Jerusalem nodhi kendo ywakne nyiseche manono ma giwangʼone ubani, to ok ginikonygi ngangʼ ka masira ochopo.
13 For according to the number of your cities are your gods, Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem you have set up altars to the shameful thing, even altars to burn incense to Baal.’
Un gi nyiseche manono mangʼeny mana kaka dalau, yaye Juda; bende kendo mar misango museiko mudwaro wangʼone nyasaye manono mar wichkuot miluongo ni Baal ngʼeny mana ka yore mag Jerusalem.’
14 “Therefore don’t pray for this people. Don’t lift up cry or prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry to me because of their trouble.
“Kik ilam ne jogi kata chiwonegi kwayo moro amora kata sayonegi, nikech ok anawinji ka gibiro ira e seche mag masira.
15 What has my beloved to do in my house, since she has behaved lewdly with many, and the holy flesh has passed from you? When you do evil, then you rejoice.”
“Angʼo ma jaherana timo e hekalu mara kochano timbe mamono gi ji mathoth? Bende ringʼo mowal tenge nyalo loko kum mari? Seche mitimo timbe marichogo, ema inie gi mor.”
16 The LORD called your name, “A green olive tree, beautiful with goodly fruit.” With the noise of a great roar he has kindled fire on it, and its branches are broken.
Jehova Nyasaye noluongi ni yadh zeituni madongo maber man-gi olemo moolo maber. To mor matek mar yamb auka enowangʼe ka mach, kendo bedene notur.
17 For the LORD of Armies, who planted you, has pronounced evil against you, because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done to themselves in provoking me to anger by offering incense to Baal.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego mane opidhou kaka yath osegolo chik mondo unwangʼ masira, nikech od Israel kod od Juda osetimo maricho kendo gisechwanya ma iya owangʼ kuom wangʼo ubani ne Baal.
18 The LORD gave me knowledge of it, and I knew it. Then you showed me their doings.
Nikech Jehova Nyasaye nohulona marach mane gichano timo, ne angʼeyo wachno, nimar e kindeno nosefwenyona gima negitimo.
19 But I was like a gentle lamb that is led to the slaughter. I didn’t know that they had devised plans against me, saying, “Let’s destroy the tree with its fruit, and let’s cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be no more remembered.”
Asebedo kaka nyarombo mamuol mitero kar yengʼo; ne ok afwenyo nine gisechano timona marach, kagiwacho niya, “Watiek yath kaachiel gi olembene; wagole oko oaye piny joma ngima, mondo nyinge kik par kendo.”
20 But, LORD of Armies, who judges righteously, who tests the heart and the mind, I will see your vengeance on them; for to you I have revealed my cause.
To, yaye Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, in ma ingʼado bura gi ratiro kendo pimo chuny kod paro, yie ane mirimbi kuom jogi, nimar in ema aseketoni kwayona.
21 “Therefore the LORD says concerning the men of Anathoth, who seek your life, saying, ‘You shall not prophesy in the LORD’s name, that you not die by our hand’—
“Emomiyo ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho kuom jo-Anathoth madwaro ngimani, ‘Kik ikor e nying Jehova Nyasaye ka ok kamano to ibiro tho e lwetwa.’
22 therefore the LORD of Armies says, ‘Behold, I will punish them. The young men will die by the sword. Their sons and their daughters will die by famine.
Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho ni, ‘Anakumgi. Rowere mag-gi noneg gi ligangla, yawuotgi kod nyigi kech nonegi.
23 There will be no remnant to them, for I will bring evil on the men of Anathoth, even the year of their visitation.’”
Onge ngʼato kuomgi manodongʼ, nikech anakel masira ne jo-Anathoth e higa manokumgie.’”
