< Jeremiah 4 >

1 Israel, if thou turnest ayen, seith the Lord, turne thou to me; if thou takist awei thin offendyngis fro my face, thou schalt not be mouyd.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ka ibiro duogo, yaye Israel, to duog ira. Ka igolo nyisechegi mopa mamonogo e nyima ma ok ubaro,
2 And thou schalt swere, The Lord lyueth, in treuthe and in doom and in riytfulnesse; and alle folkis schulen blesse hym, and schulen preise hym.
kendo kikwongʼori gi adiera gi bura makare kendo gi tim malongʼo ni, ‘Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima,’ eka abiro gwedho ogendini duto manie piny kendo ogendini duto biro miya duongʼ.”
3 For the Lord God seith these thingis to a man of Juda and to a dwellere of Jerusalem, Make ye newe to you a lond tilid of the newe, and nyle ye sowe on thornes.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wachone jo-Juda kod Jerusalem: “Pururu puotheu mag mbora kendo kik ukom e kind kuthe.
4 Men of Juda, and dwelleris of Jerusalem, be ye circumcidid to the Lord, and do ye awey the filthis of youre hertis; lest perauenture myn indignacioun go out as fier, and be kyndlid, and noon be that quenche, for the malice of youre thouytis.
Terreuru nyangu uwegi ni Jehova Nyasaye, teruru chunjeu nyangu, un jo-Juda kod jo-Jerusalem, ka ok kamano to mirimba biro muoch mi liel ka mach, nikech tim mamono ma usetimo manowangʼu, maonge ngʼama nyalo kweye.”
5 Telle ye in Juda, and make ye herd in Jerusalem; speke ye, and synge ye with a trumpe in the lond; crye ye strongli, and seie ye, Be ye gaderid togidere, and entre we in to stronge citees.
“Land e Juda kendo ior wach e Jerusalem kiwacho ni: ‘Gouru turumbete e piny duto!’ Ywag matek kendo iwachi: ‘Chokreuru kaachiel! Waringuru wadhi e mier madongo mochiel motegno!’
6 Reise ye a signe in Sion, coumforte ye, and nyle ye stonde; for Y bringe yuel fro the north, and a greet sorewe.
Oruru wach odhi Sayun! Ringuru udhi kar pondo ma ok odeko! Nimar akelo masira koa yo nyandwat, kata kethruok malich.”
7 A lioun schal `rise vp fro his denne, and the robbere of folkis schal reise hym silf. He is goon out of his place, to sette thi lond in to wildirnesse; thi citees schulen be distried, abidynge stille with out dwellere.
Sibuor osewuok e kare mar pondo; jatiek ogendini osewuok oko. Oseweyo kare mondo otiek pinyu. Miechu nomuki madongʼ gunda, maonge ngʼama nodagie.
8 On this thing girde you with heiris; weile ye, and yelle, for the wraththe of the strong veniaunce of the Lord is not turned awei fro you.
Omiyo rwakuru lepu mag ywak, ywaguru kendo denguru, nimar mirimb Jehova Nyasaye mager pod ok oweyowa.
9 And it schal be, in that dai, seith the Lord, the herte of the king schal perische, and the herte of princis; and the prestis schulen wondre, and the prophetis schulen be astonyed.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Chiengʼno ruoth kod jotelo chunygi biro aa, jodolo nobed gi luoro maduongʼ, kendo jonabi nobed gi bwok maduongʼ.”
10 And Y seide, Alas! alas! alas! Lord God; therfor whether thou hast disseyued this puple and Jerusalem, seiynge, Pees schal be to you, and lo! a swerd is comun `til to the soule?
Eka ne awacho, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, mano kaka isewuondo jogi kod Jerusalem ka iwacho ni, ‘Unubed gi kwe,’ mana sa ma ligangla ni e dwondwa.”
11 In that tyme it schal be seide to this puple and to Jerusalem, A brennynge wynd in the weies that ben in desert, ben the weies of the douytir of my puple, not to wyndewe, and not to purge.
E kindego jogi kod Jerusalem nonyisi niya, “Yamo maliet moa kama gimoro ok nyagie mana kama otwo futo kadhi ir joga, to ok mondo okwadhgi kata pwodhogi;
12 A spirit ful of hem schal come to me; and now Y, but Y schal speke my domes with hem.
to yamo motegno moloyo mano aa kuoma. Koro asengʼadonegi bura.”
13 Lo! he schal stie as a cloude, and hise charis as a tempest; hise horsis ben swifter than eglis; wo to vs, for we ben distried.
Ne! Obiro ka boche polo, gechene mag lweny biro ka kalausi, farese mage ringo matek moloyo ongo. Kagiwacho niya, mano kaka wan gi lit!
14 Thou Jerusalem, waische thin herte fro malice, that thou be maad saaf. Hou long schulen noiful thouytis dwelle in thee?
Yaye Jerusalem, luok timbe mamono manie chunyu mondo iresri. Nyaka karangʼo mi ibiro kano timbe richo e pachi?
15 For whi the vois of a tellere fro Dan, and makynge knowun an idol fro the hil of Effraym.
Koko wuok koa Dan, ka goyo milome mar masira koa e gode matindo mag Efraim.
16 Reise, ye folkis; lo! it is herd in Jerusalem that keperis ben comun fro a fer lond, and yyuen her vois on the citees of Juda.
“Nyis ogendini kendo go milome ne Jerusalem niya, ‘Jolweny mager biro iru kawuok e piny mabor, ka gigoyo koko mar agengʼa mar lweny kuom mier madongo mag Juda.
17 As the keperis of feeldis thei ben maad on it in cumpas; for it stiride me to wrathfulnesse, seith the Lord.
Gilwore mana ka joma rito puodho, nikech osengʼanyona,’” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
18 Thi weyes and thi thouytis han maad this to thee; this malice of thee, for it is bittir, for it touchide thin herte.
“Kiti kod timbegi iwuon osemiyo ma obiro kuomi. Ma en kum mari. Mano kaka olit! Mano kaka opowo nyaka e chuny!”
19 Mi wombe akith, my wombe akith; the wittis of myn herte ben disturblid in me. Y schal not be stille, for my soule herde the vois of a trumpe, the cry of batel.
Yaye, iya nyawni, iya nyawni! An gi rem malit. Yaye, lit mager mar chunya! Chunya ridore, ok nyal lingʼ thi. Nimar asewinjo koko mar turumbete; asewinjo ywak mar kedo.
20 Sorewe is clepid on sorewe, and al the lond is distried; my tabernaclis ben wastid sudeynli, my skynnes ben wastid sudeynli.
Masira bangʼ masira; piny duto okethi. Ka diemo wangʼ nono hembena omuki, kara mar dak ka mil polo.
21 Hou longe schal Y se hem that fleen, schal Y here the vois of a clarioun?
Nyaka karangʼo mabiro nenoe kedo machalo kama, kendo winjo dwond turumbete?
22 For my fonned puple knew not me; thei ben vnwise sones, and cowardis; thei ben wise to do yuels, but thei kouden not do wel.
“Joga ofuwo; ok gingʼeya. Gin nyithindo maonge wigi gionge rieko, gilony mana kuom timo timbe maricho; kendo ok gingʼeyo; kaka digitim maber.”
23 Y bihelde the lond, and lo! it was void, and nouyt; and Y bihelde heuenes, and no liyt was in tho.
Ne angʼiyo piny, ne en nono kendo noonge gi kido; kendo bende ne angʼiyo e polo, to ler ne onge.
24 Y siy munteyns, and lo! tho weren mouyd, and all litle hillis weren disturblid.
Ne angʼiyo gode madongo kendo negiyiengni, to gode matindo duto ne rundore koni gi koni.
25 Y lokide, and no man was, and ech brid of heuene was gon a wey.
Ne angʼicho to ne onge ji, winy duto manie kor polo nosefuyo molal.
26 Y bihelde, and lo! Carmele is forsakun, and alle citees therof ben distried fro the face of the Lord, and fro the face of the ire of his strong veniaunce.
Ne angʼicho to piny mane miyo nolokore kama otwo; dalane duto nokethi e nyim mirimb Jehova Nyasaye mager.
27 For the Lord seith these thingis, Al the lond schal be forsakun, but netheles Y schal not make an endyng.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Piny mangima ibiro kethi, kata kamano ok nakethe chutho.
28 The erthe schal mourne, and heuenys aboue schulen make sorewe, for that Y spak; Y thouyte, and it repentide not me, nether Y am turned awei fro it.
Omiyo piny biro dengo kendo polo malo notim mudho, nikech asewuoyo kendo ok analok pacha, asengʼado wach chuth kendo ok anadog chien.”
29 Ech citee fledde fro the vois of a knyyt, and of a man schetynge an arowe; thei entriden in to hard places, and stieden in to roochis of stoon; alle citees ben forsakun, and no man dwellith in tho.
Ka dwol mar joidh farese kod jo-asere owinji, to dala ka dala golo aputh njiri. Moko dhi e bunge modinore; moko idho dhi ewi lwendni. Mier duto ji odarie; onge ngʼama odak eigi.
30 But what schalt thou `destried do? Whanne thou schalt clothe thee with reed scarlet, whanne thou schalt be ourned with a goldun broche, and schalt anoynte thin iyen with wommans oynement, thou schalt be araied in veyn; thi louyeris han dispisid thee, thei schulen seke thi soule.
En angʼo mitimo, yaye ngʼama osetiekni? Angʼo momiyo irwakori gi law marakwaro kendo idusori gi gige dhahabu? Angʼo momiyo ibuko wangʼi gi rangi. Idusori kayiem nono. Johera magi jari; gidwaro mana ngimani.
31 For Y herd a vois as of a womman trauelynge of child, the angwischis as of a womman childynge; the vois of the douyter of Sion among hem that dien, and spreden abrood her hondis; Wo to me, for my soule failide for hem that ben slayn.
Awinjo ywak kaka mar dhako mamuoch kayo, lit mana ka dhako ma nywolo nyathine makayo, ywak mar Nyar Sayun ka gamo yweyo, kotengʼo bedene kendo owacho, “To mano kaka apodho; ngimana omi jonek.”
