< Jeremia 10 >

1 Ta thikĩrĩriai mũigue ũhoro ũrĩa Jehova ekũmwĩra, inyuĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli.
Hear the word which he has spoken Yahweh to you O house of Israel.
2 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Tigai kwĩruta mĩthiĩre ya ndũrĩrĩ, kana mũguoyohio nĩ morirũ ma kũũrĩa igũrũ, o na gũtuĩka ndũrĩrĩ icio nĩiguoyohetio nĩmo.
Thus - he says Yahweh [the] way of the nations may not you learn and from [the] signs of the heavens may not you be dismayed for they are dismayed the nations from them.
3 Nĩgũkorwo mĩtugo ya andũ acio ndĩrĩ kĩene: matemaga mũtĩ mũtitũ, ũkarutĩrwo wĩra nĩ bundi, akawacũhia na ithanwa rĩake.
For [the] customs of the peoples [is] futility it for a tree from a forest someone has cut down it [the] work of [the] hands of a craftsman with tool.
4 Maũgemagia na betha na thahabu; maũhũũragĩrĩra na mĩcumarĩ na nyondo ndũkae kwenyenya.
With silver and with gold he beautifies it with nails and with hammers they make strong them and not it will wobble.
5 Ũtariĩ ta kĩndũ gĩa kũhahũra nyamũ gĩthecereirwo mũtĩ mũgũnda-inĩ wa marenge, mĩhianano yao ndĩngĩhota kwaria; ningĩ no nginya ĩkuuo, tondũ ndĩngĩhota gwĩtwara. Mũtikanamĩĩtigĩre; ndĩngĩhota gwĩka ũũru o na kana gwĩka wega o na ũrĩkũ.”
[are] like A scarecrow of a cucumber field they and not they speak certainly they are carried for not they walk may not you be afraid from them for not they do harm and also [is] doing good there not with them.
6 Atĩrĩrĩ, gũtirĩ ũngĩ ũtariĩ tawe, Wee Jehova; Wee ũrĩ mũnene, narĩo rĩĩtwa rĩaku nĩ rĩrĩ ũhoti mũnene.
From there not [is] like you O Yahweh [are] great you and [is] great name your in strength.
7 Nũũ ũtangĩgwĩtigĩra, Wee mũthamaki wa ndũrĩrĩ? Wee nowe wagĩrĩire gwĩtigĩrwo. Thĩinĩ wa andũ arĩa othe oogĩ a ndũrĩrĩ, o na mothamaki-inĩ mao mothe, gũtirĩ ũngĩ ũhaana tawe.
Who? not will he fear you O king of the nations for for you it is befitting that among all [the] wise [people] of the nations and among all kingdom their from there not [is] like you.
8 Acio othe-rĩ, matiĩciiragia, no nĩ akĩĩgu; mataaragwo nĩ mĩhianano ĩtarĩ kĩene o ĩrĩa ĩthondeketwo na mĩtĩ.
And in one they are stupid and they may be foolish [the] correction of futilities [is] wood it.
9 Ĩgemagio na betha ĩrĩa hũũre ĩrutĩtwo Tarishishi, na thahabu ĩrutĩtwo Ufazu. Kĩndũ kĩu gĩthondeketwo na moko ma bundi, na ma mũturi wa thahabu gĩcookaga gĩkahumbĩrwo na rangi wa bururu na wa ndathi, ciothe ithondeketwo nĩ andũ arĩa oogĩ na wĩra ũcio.
Silver beaten from Tarshish it is brought and gold from Uphaz [the] work of a craftsman and [the] hands of a metalsmith [is] violet stuff and purple clothing their [are the] work of skillful [people] all of them.
10 No Jehova nĩwe Ngai ũrĩa wa ma; nĩwe Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo, o na mũthamaki ũrĩa ũtũũraga tene na tene. Rĩrĩa arakarĩte-rĩ, thĩ nĩĩthingithaga, nacio ndũrĩrĩ itingĩĩtiiria mangʼũrĩ make.
And Yahweh [is] God truth he [is] God living and king of perpetuity from wrath his it shakes the earth and not they will endure nations indignation his.
11 “Meerei atĩrĩ, ‘Ngai icio itoombire igũrũ na thĩ, nĩigathira gũkũ thĩ, na ithire kũrĩa guothe gũtambũrũkĩirio matu mairũ.’”
Like this you will say to them gods the who heavens the and earth the not they made may they perish from earth the and from under heavens the these.
12 No rĩrĩ, nĩ Ngai wombire thĩ na hinya wake; akĩhaanda thĩ na ũũgĩ wake, na agĩtambũrũkia matu mairũ na ũndũ wa ũmenyo wake.
[he] made [the] earth By power his [he] established [the] world by wisdom his and by understanding his he stretched out [the] heavens.
13 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa we agũũthũka-rĩ, maaĩ marĩa marĩ igũrũ matu-inĩ nĩmarurumaga; nĩwe ũtũmaga thaatũ waambate na igũrũ uumĩte ituri ciothe cia thĩ. Atũmaga rũheni rũũke rũrehanĩte na mbura, na akarehithia rũhuho ruumĩte makũmbĩ-inĩ make.
To [the] sound of giving forth he a tumult of waters in the heavens and he made come up clouds from [the] end of (the earth *Q(K)*) lightning for the rain he makes and he brought out [the] wind from storehouses his.
14 Andũ othe nĩmagĩte meciiria na makaaga ũũgĩ; nake mũturi wa thahabu o wothe nĩaconorithĩtio nĩ mĩhianano ĩyo yake. Nĩ ũndũ mĩhianano ĩyo yake ya gwĩturĩra nĩ ya maheeni; ndĩrĩ mĩhũmũ thĩinĩ wayo.
He is stupid every person from knowledge he has been put to shame every metalsmith from [the] idol for [is] deception molten image his and not breath [is] in them.
15 Ndĩrĩ kĩene, nĩ ya kũnyararwo; narĩo ihinda rĩayo rĩa gũciirithio rĩakinya-rĩ, nĩĩgathira biũ.
[are] futility They a work of mockery at [the] time of punishment their they will perish.
16 We ũcio Rũgai rwa Jakubu ndatariĩ tayo, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe Mũũmbi wa indo ciothe, o hamwe na Isiraeli mũhĩrĩga ũrĩa, eegwatĩire ũtuĩke igai rĩake, Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, nĩrĩo rĩĩtwa rĩake.
Not [is] like these [the] portion of Jacob for [is [the] one who] formed everything he and Israel [is] [the] tribe of inheritance his [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.
17 Ohai mĩrigo yanyu mũthaame bũrũri ũyũ, inyuĩ arĩa mũtũũrĩte mũrigiicĩirio nĩ thũ.
Gather up from [the] ground bundle your (O [you who] dwell *Q(K)*) in the siege.
18 Nĩgũkorwo Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Ihinda rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo ngũikia andũ arĩa othe matũũraga bũrũri ũyũ ta maikĩtio na kĩgũtha; Nĩngũmarehithĩria mĩnyamaro, nĩgeetha manyiitwo mĩgwate.”
For thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to hurl forth [the] inhabitants of the land at the time this and I will cause distress to them so that they may find.
19 Wũi-ĩiya-wakwa, nĩ ũndũ wa itihia rĩrĩa ndiihĩtio-ĩ! Ironda ciakwa itingĩhona! No ngĩĩcookeria ũhoro ngiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ mũrimũ wakwa, na no nginya ndĩũkirĩrĩrie.”
Woe! to me on fracture my [is] severe wound my and I I said surely this [is] a sickness and I will endure it.
20 Hema yakwa nĩyanangĩtwo, nayo mĩkanda yayo yothe ĩgatuĩkanga. Ariũ akwa nĩmanjehereire magethiĩra na rĩu matikĩrĩ ho; rĩu gũtirĩ mũndũ mũtigaru wa kwamba hema yakwa, o na kana wa gũtambũrũkia mataama mayo.
Tent my it has been devastated and all tent cords my they have been snapped children my they have gone out from me and there not [are] they there not [is one who] pitches again tent my and [one who] raises tent curtains my.
21 Arĩithi matiĩciiragia, na matituĩragia ũhoro harĩ Jehova; nĩ ũndũ ũcio matigaacagĩra, nacio ndũũru ciao ciothe cia mbũri nĩihurunjũkĩte.
For they have behaved stupidly the shepherds and Yahweh not they have sought there-fore not they have prospered and all flock their it has been scattered.
22 Ta thikĩrĩriai! Nĩtũrakinyĩrio ũhoro, tũkeerwo atĩrĩ, kũrĩ na gacagaca nene kuuma bũrũri wa mwena wa gathigathini! Gacagaca ĩyo nĩĩgatũma matũũra ma Juda makire ihooru, ĩtũme matuĩke ma gũtũũragwo nĩ mbwe.
[the] sound of A report there! [it is] coming and a din great from a land of [the] north to make [the] cities of Judah a desolation a habitation of jackals.
23 Atĩrĩrĩ Wee Jehova, nĩnjũũĩ atĩ muoyo wa mũndũ ti wake we mwene; mũndũ we mwene ti we ũrũngagĩrĩria makinya make.
I know O Yahweh that not [belongs] to person way his not [belongs] to a person [who] walks to direct step[s] his.
24 Atĩrĩrĩ Wee Jehova, herithia, no ũherithie na kĩhooto; ndũkaherithie ũrĩ na marakara, ndũkae kũniina nduĩke kĩndũ hatarĩ.
Correct me O Yahweh only in justice may not [it be] in anger your lest you should diminish me.
25 Itũrũrĩra ndũrĩrĩ iria itakũũĩ mangʼũrĩ maku, ũmaitũrũrĩre andũ arĩa matakayagĩra rĩĩtwa rĩaku. Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, nĩmahukĩtie Jakubu; mamũhukĩtie biũ, naguo bũrũri wake makawananga.
Pour out rage your on the nations which not they have known you and on clans which on name your not they have called for they have consumed Jacob and they have consumed him and they have made an end of him and habitation his they have devastated.
