< Jeremia 21 >
1 Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri ĩrĩa yakinyĩrĩire Jeremia yumĩte harĩ Jehova, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Mũthamaki Zedekia amũtũmĩire Pashuri mũrũ wa Malikija, na Zefania mũrũ wa Maaseia mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai. Makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ:
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh when sent to him the king Zedekiah Pashhur [the] son of Malkijah and Zephaniah [the] son of Maaseiah the priest saying.
2 “Tũtuĩrĩrie ũhoro harĩ Jehova, nĩ ũndũ Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni, nĩatũtharĩkĩire. Hihi Jehova nĩegũtwĩkĩra maũndũ ma magegania o ta ũrĩa anatwĩkĩra mahinda ma tene, nĩguo mũthamaki ũcio atweherere.”
Seek please for us Yahweh for Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon [is] waging war on us perhaps he will do Yahweh with us according to all wonders his and he may go up from on us.
3 No Jeremia akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩrai Zedekia atĩrĩ,
And he said Jeremiah to them thus you will say! to Zedekiah.
4 ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga: Ngirie gũtũma indo icio cia mbaara, o icio irĩ moko-inĩ manyu, iria mũrahũthĩra mũkĩrũa mbaara na mũthamaki wa Babuloni na andũ a Babuloni arĩa marĩ nja ya rũthingo mamũrigiicĩirie, imũcookerere imũhũũre inyuĩ ene. Andũ acio nao nĩngamacookanĩrĩria thĩinĩ wa itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene.
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to turn round [the] weapons of war which [are] in hand your which you [are] fighting by them with [the] king of Babylon and with the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you from [the] outside of the wall and I will gather them into [the] middle of the city this.
5 Niĩ mwene nĩngahũũrana na inyuĩ ndambũrũkĩtie guoko gwakwa, o na njĩkĩrĩte njora yakwa hinya, ndaakarĩte, na ndĩ na mangʼũrĩ na marũrũ maingĩ.
And I will fight I with you by a hand outstretched and by an arm strong and in anger and in rage and in wrath great.
6 Nĩngahũũra kĩrĩa gĩothe gĩtũũraga itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene, andũ na nyamũ, ciothe ciũragwo na mũthiro mũũru mũno.
And I will strike down [the] inhabitants of the city this and the humankind and the animal[s] by a pestilence great they will die.
7 Ningĩ Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Thuutha ũcio-rĩ, nĩnganeana Zedekia, mũthamaki wa Juda, na anene ake, o na andũ arĩa angĩ magaakorwo matigaire itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene, arĩa matooragirwo nĩ mũthiro ũcio, kana rũhiũ rwa njora, kana ngʼaragu, ndĩmaneane kũrĩ Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni, na kũrĩ thũ ciao iria ciendaga kũmaruta muoyo. Nĩakamooragithia na rũhiũ rwa njora; ndakamaiguĩra tha, kana amacaaĩre, o na kana amaiguĩre kĩeha.’
And after thus [the] utterance of Yahweh I will give Zedekiah [the] king of Judah and servants his - and the people and those [who] remain in the city this from the pestilence - from the sword and from the famine in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and in [the] hand of enemies their and in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and he will strike down them to [the] mouth of [the] sword not he will have mercy on them and not he will show pity and not he will have compassion.
8 “O na ningĩ wĩre andũ acio atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩngũiga njĩra ya muoyo, o na njĩra ya gĩkuũ mbere yanyu.
And to the people this you will say thus he says Yahweh here I [am] putting before you [the] way of life and [the] way of death.
9 Mũndũ ũrĩa wothe ũgũikara itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene, akooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, kana ngʼaragu, kana mũthiro. No ũrĩa wothe ũgaathiĩ eneane kũrĩ andũ a Babuloni arĩa mamũrigiicĩirie nĩagatũũra muoyo; nĩakahonokia muoyo wake.
The [one who] remains in the city this he will die by the sword and by famine and by pestilence and the [one who] goes out and he will fall on the Chaldeans who are laying siege on you (and he will live *Q(K)*) and it will belong to him life his to plunder.
10 Nĩnduĩte atĩ nĩngũgera itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene ngero njũru, na ndirĩ wega ingĩrĩĩka, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. Nĩrĩkũneanwo moko-inĩ ma mũthamaki wa Babuloni, nake arĩniine na mwaki.’
For I have set face my on the city this for harm and not for good [the] utterance of Yahweh in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon it will be given and he will burn it with fire.
11 “Ningĩ wĩre nyũmba ya ũthamaki wa Juda atĩrĩ, ‘Iguai ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova;
And to [the] house of [the] king of Judah hear [the] word of Yahweh.
12 atĩrĩ, inyuĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Daudi, ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: “‘Tuithanagiai ciira na kĩhooto rũciinĩ o rũciinĩ; teithũrai mũndũ ũrĩa ũtunyĩtwo indo ciake kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa mũmũhinyĩrĩria, kana mangʼũrĩ makwa mamũũkĩrĩre maakanĩte ta mwaki nĩ ũndũ wa ũũru ũrĩa mwĩkĩte, maakane ta mwaki ũtangĩhoreka nĩ mũndũ.
O house of David thus he says Yahweh judge to the morning justice and deliver [one who] has been robbed from [the] hand of an oppressor lest it should go forth like fire rage my and it will burn and there not [will be one who] extinguishes because of [the] wickedness of (deeds your. *Q(K)*)
13 Nĩngũmũũkĩrĩra, inyuĩ andũ a Jerusalemu, o inyuĩ mũtũũraga rũgongo igũrũ rwa gĩtuamba gĩkĩ, kũrĩa kwaraganu ndwaro-inĩ cia mahiga, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga, o wee uugaga atĩrĩ, “Nũũ ũngĩhota gũtũũkĩrĩra? Nũũ ũngĩkĩhota gũtoonya kĩũrĩro-inĩ giitũ?”
Here I [am] against you O inhabitant of the valley O rock of the plain [the] utterance of Yahweh O those [who] say who? will he come down on us and who? will he come in hiding places our.
14 Nĩngamũherithia kũringana na ciĩko cianyu, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. Nĩngaakia mwaki mĩtitũ-inĩ yanyu, ũrĩa ũkaaniina kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩmũrigiicĩirie.’”
And I will visit [judgment] on you according to [the] fruit of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will kindle a fire in forest its and it will consume all around it.
