Jeremiah 39
1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem, and besieged it.
E higa mar ochiko mar Zedekia ruodh Juda, e dwe mar apar, Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nodhi gi jolweny mage duto momonjo Jerusalem kendo ne gigoyone agengʼa.
2 In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city.
To odiechiengʼ mar ochiko e dwe mar angʼwen e higa mar apar gachiel mar loch Zedekia, ohinga mar dala maduongʼno nomuki.
3 All the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate: Nergal Sharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim the Rabsaris, Nergal Sharezer the Rabmag, with all the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
Eka jotelo duto mag ruodh Babulon nobiro kendo obet e Dhorangach Madiere: Negal-Shareza ma ja-Samgar, Nebo-Sasekim jatelo maduongʼ, Negal-Shareza jatelo mamalo maduongʼ kod jotelo mamoko duto mag ruodh Babulon.
4 When Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled and went out of the city by night, by the way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls; and he went out towards the Arabah.
Ka Zedekia ruodh Juda kod jolweny duto nonenogi, negiringo giwuok e dala maduongʼno gotieno ka gikalo e rangach man e kind ohinga ariyo man but puoth ruoth, kendo ka gichomo Araba.
5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. When they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgement on him.
To jolwenj Babulon nolawogi kendo ojuko Zedekia e pewe mag Jeriko. Negimake mi gitere Ribla e piny Hamath ir Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, kama nongʼadone bura.
6 Then the king of Babylon killed Zedekiah’s sons in Riblah before his eyes. The king of Babylon also killed all the nobles of Judah.
E Ribla ruodh Babulon nonego yawuot Zedekia koneno bende nonego jo-Juda duto ma joka ruoth.
7 Moreover he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
Eka nogolo wenge Zedekia oko kendo notweye gi rateke mag mula mondo notere Babulon.
8 The Chaldeans burnt the king’s house and the people’s houses with fire and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
Jo-Babulon nowangʼo kar dak ruoth kod ute ji kendo negimuko ohinga mag Jerusalem.
9 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the rest of the people who remained in the city, the deserters also who fell away to him, and the rest of the people who remained.
Nebuzaradan ma jatend lweny mar piny nomako joma nodongʼ e dala maduongʼ moterogi e twech Babulon, kanyakla gi jogo mane osedhi ire, kod joma moko.
10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, who had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
To Nebuzaradan ma jatend lweny noweyo e piny Juda joma odhier, mane onge gi gimoro; kendo e ndalogo nomiyogi puothe mzabibu kod puothe mamoko.
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon commanded Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
Koro Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nosechiwo chike kuom Jeremia kokalo kuom Nebuzaradan ma jatend lweny mar piny kowacho ni:
12 “Take him and take care of him. Do him no harm; but do to him even as he tells you.”
“Kawe kendo irite; kik ihinye to timne gimoro amora mokwayo.”
13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, Nebushazban, Rabsaris, and Nergal Sharezer, Rabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon
Omiyo Nebuzaradan ma jatend lweny, Nebushazban ma jatelo maduongʼ, Negal-Shareza ma jatelo mamalo kod jotelo duto mag ruodh Babulon
14 sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should bring him home. So he lived amongst the people.
nooro wach mondo ogol Jeremia oa e laru mar jarito. Ne gitere ir Gedalia wuod Ahikam, ma wuod Shafan, mondo odwoke dalane. Omiyo nodongʼ e dier jogi owuon.
15 Now the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
Sa mane Jeremia nokan e laru mar jolweny, wach Jehova Nyasaye nobirone niya:
16 “Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring my words on this city for evil, and not for good; and they will be accomplished before you in that day.
“Dhiyo kendo inyis Ebed-Melek ja-Kush, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma Nyasach Israel, wacho: Achiegni timo gik mane awacho ni natim ne dala maduongʼni, ka akelo ne masiche to ok kwe. E kindeno notimgi ka ineno.
17 But I will deliver you in that day,” says the LORD; “and you will not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni enoresi odiechiengʼno, ok nochiwi ne jogo miluoro.
18 For I will surely save you. You won’t fall by the sword, but you will escape with your life, because you have put your trust in me,” says the LORD.’”
Enoresi; ok nonegi gi ligangla to initony gi ngimani, nikech igeno kuoma,’” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
