1 Ndũmĩrĩri nĩyakinyĩrĩire Jeremia ĩkoniĩ andũ othe a Juda, mwaka-inĩ wa kana wa gũthamaka kwa Jehoiakimu mũrũ wa Josia mũthamaki wa Juda, naguo nĩguo warĩ mwaka wa mbere wa gũthamaka kwa Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni.
The word that came to Ieremiah, concerning all the people of Iudah in the fourth yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah that was in the first yeere of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel:
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jeremia ũcio mũnabii akĩĩra andũ othe a Juda na arĩa othe maatũũraga Jerusalemu atĩrĩ:
The which Ieremiah the Prophet spake vnto all the people of Iudah, and to all the inhabitants of Ierusalem, saying,
3 Ihinda rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtatũ, kuuma mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ĩtatũ wa ũthamaki wa Josia mũrũ wa Amoni mũthamaki wa Juda, nginya ũmũthĩ, ndũmĩrĩri cia Jehova itũire inginyagĩrĩra, na niĩ ngamũhe ũhoro wacio kaingĩ kaingĩ, no mũtithikĩrĩirie.
From the thirteenth yeere of Iosiah the sonne of Amon King of Iudah, euen vnto this day (that is the three and twentieth yeere) the word of the Lord hath come vnto mee, and I haue spoken vnto you rising earely and speaking, but ye woulde not heare.
4 Na rĩrĩ, o na gũtuĩka Jehova nĩamũtũmĩire ndungata ciake ciothe cia anabii kaingĩ, kaingĩ, mũtiigana gũthikĩrĩria kana gũtega matũ manyu nĩguo mũmaigue.
And the Lord hath sent vnto you all his seruantes the Prophets, rising early and sending them, but yee would not heare, nor encline your eares to obey.
5 Maamwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, “Garũrũkai rĩu o ũmwe wanyu, mũtigane na mĩthiĩre yanyu mĩũru na ciĩko cianyu njũru, nĩguo mũtũũre bũrũri-inĩ ũrĩa Jehova aamũheire inyuĩ o na maithe manyu nginya tene.
They sayde, Turne againe now euery one from his euill way, and from the wickednes of your inuentions, and ye shall dwell in the lande that the Lord hath giuen vnto you, and to your fathers for euer and euer.
6 Mũtikanarũmĩrĩre ngai ingĩ mũcitungatĩre kana mũcihooe; mũtikandakarie na ũndũ wa kĩrĩa mwĩthondekeire na moko manyu. Mwathĩka ũguo, hĩndĩ ĩyo ndikamũgera ngero.”
And go not after other gods to serue them and to worshippe them, and prouoke me not to anger with the workes of your hands, and I will not punish you.
7 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “No inyuĩ mũtiathikĩrĩirie, no mũgĩĩthirĩkia nĩguo ndaakare na ũndũ wa kĩrĩa mwethondekeire na moko manyu, na inyuĩ nĩmũkĩĩgerithĩtie ngero.”
Neuerthelesse ye would not heare me, saith the Lord, but haue prouoked mee to anger with the workes of your hands to your owne hurt.
8 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Tondũ nĩmũregete gũthikĩrĩria ndũmĩrĩri yakwa,
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes, Because ye haue not heard my wordes,
9 nĩngwĩta andũ othe a mwena wa gathigathini hamwe na ndungata yakwa Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Nĩngũmarehe mookĩrĩre bũrũri ũyũ na arĩa matũũraga kuo o na mookĩrĩre ndũrĩrĩ ciothe iria iũrigiicĩirie. Nĩngamaniina biũ na ndũme matuĩke ta kĩndũ kĩa ihooru na gĩa kũmeneka, na manangĩke nginya tene.
Beholde, I will send and take to mee all the families of the North, saith the Lord, and Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel my seruant, and will bring them against this lande, and against the inhabitantes thereof, and against all these nations rounde about, and will destroy them, and make them an astonishment and an hissing, and a continuall desolation.
10 Nĩngũmehereria mĩgambo ya gĩkeno na ya kũrũũhia, o na mĩgambo ya mũhiki na mũhikania, na mũrurumo wa ithĩi, o na ũtheri wa tawa.
Moreouer I will take from them the voyce of mirth and the voyce of gladnesse, the voyce of the bridegrome and the voyce of the bride, the noise of the milstones, and the light of the candle.
11 Bũrũri ũyũ wothe ũgaatuĩka bũrũri ũtarĩ kĩndũ o na ũkirĩte ihooru, nacio ndũrĩrĩ icio nĩigatungatĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni mĩaka mĩrongo mũgwanja.
And this whole land shalbe desolate, and an astonishment, and these nations shall serue the King of Babel seuentie yeeres.
12 “No rĩrĩ, mĩaka mĩrongo mũgwanja yathira, nĩngaherithia mũthamaki wa Babuloni na rũrĩrĩ rwake, herithie bũrũri ũcio wa andũ a Babuloni nĩ ũndũ wa mahĩtia mao, na ningĩ nĩngatũma bũrũri ũcio ũtũũre ũkirĩte ihooru nginya tene,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And when the seuentie yeres are accomplished, I will visite the King of Babel and that nation, saith the Lord, for their iniquities, euen the land of the Caldeans, and will make it a perpetuall desolation,
13 “Nĩngarehithĩria bũrũri ũcio maũndũ mothe marĩa ndanoiga atĩ nĩmakaũkora, marĩa mothe mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ, o macio maarathĩirwo ndũrĩrĩ ciothe nĩ Jeremia.
And I will bring vpon that lande all my wordes which I haue pronounced against it, euen all that is written in this booke, which Ieremiah hath prophecied against all nations.
14 Nĩgũkorwo o ene nĩmagatuĩka ngombo cia ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ na athamaki anene; na niĩ nĩngerĩhĩria harĩo kũringana na ciĩko ciao, o na kũringana na maũndũ marĩa maneeka na moko mao.”
For many nations, and great Kings shall euen serue themselues of them: thus will I recompense them according to their deedes, and according to the workes of their owne handes.
15 Atĩrĩrĩ, Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli, aanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ: “Oya gĩkombe gĩkĩ kĩiyũrĩte ndibei ya mangʼũrĩ makwa kuuma guoko-inĩ gwakwa, na ũkĩnyuithie ndũrĩrĩ iria ciothe ngũgũtũma kũrĩ cio.
For thus hath the Lord God of Israel spoken vnto me, Take the cuppe of wine of this mine indignation at mine hand, and cause all the nations, to whome I sende thee, to drinke it.
16 Rĩrĩa ikaanyua-rĩ, nĩigatũgũũga na igũrũke nĩ ũndũ wa rũhiũ rwa njora rũrĩa ngaarehithia gatagatĩ-inĩ kao.”
And they shall drinke, and be moued and be mad, because of the sworde that I will sende among them.
17 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩoya gĩkombe kĩu kuuma guoko-inĩ kwa Jehova, na ngĩtũma ndũrĩrĩ iria ciothe aandũmĩte kũrĩ cio ikĩnyuĩre:
Then tooke I the cup at the Lordes hand, and made all people to drinke, vnto whome the Lord had sent me:
18 itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu na matũũra ma Juda, na athamaki akuo na anene akuo, nĩguo manangĩke, na matuĩke ta kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi na gĩa kũmeneka, o na kĩndũ kĩgwatĩtwo nĩ kĩrumi, ta ũrĩa matariĩ ũmũthĩ;
Euen Ierusalem, and the cities of Iudah, and the Kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them desolate, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse, as appeareth this day:
19 ningĩ Firaũni mũthamaki wa Misiri, na arĩa mamũtungataga, na anene ake na andũ ake othe,
Pharaoh also, King of Egypt, and his seruants, and his princes, and all his people:
20 na ageni arĩa othe matũũraga kuo; na ningĩ athamaki othe a Uzu; na ningĩ athamaki othe a Afilisti (aya nĩ andũ a Ashikeloni, na Gaza, na Ekironi, o na andũ arĩa maatigaire Ashidodi);
And all sortes of people, and all the Kings of the lande of Vz: and all the Kings of the lande of the Philistims, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod:
21 ningĩ andũ a Edomu, na Moabi na Amoni;
Edom, and Moab, and the Ammonites,
22 ningĩ athamaki othe a Turo na Sidoni; o na athamaki a icigĩrĩra iria irĩ mũrĩmo wa iria;
And all the Kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the Kings of the Yles, that are beyonde the Sea,
23 ningĩ andũ a Dedani, na Tema, na Buzu, na arĩa othe marĩ kũraya;
And Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that dwell in the vttermost corners,
24 ningĩ athamaki othe a Arabia, na athamaki othe a ndũrĩrĩ ngʼeni arĩa matũũraga werũ-inĩ;
And all the Kings of Arabia, and all the Kings of Arabia, that dwell in the desert,
25 ningĩ athamaki othe a Zimuri, na Elamu na Media;
And all the Kings of Zimri, and all the Kings of Elam, and all the Kings of the Medes,
26 o na athamaki othe a mwena wa gathigathini, a gũkuhĩ na a kũraya, marũmanĩrĩre mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ: moimĩte mothamaki-inĩ mothe ma thĩ. Na thuutha wao othe, mũthamaki wa Sheshaki nĩagakĩnyuĩra o nake.
And all the Kings of the North, farre and neere one to another, and all the kingdomes of the worlde, which are vpon the earth, and the king of Sheshach shall drinke after them.
27 “Ũcooke ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga: Nyuai, mũrĩĩo na mũtahĩke, mũcooke mũgũe na mũtikanacooke gũũkĩra, nĩ ũndũ wa rũhiũ rwa njora rũrĩa ngaarehithia gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu.’
Therefore say thou vnto them, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Drinke and bee drunken, and spewe and fall, and rise no more, because of the sworde, which I will sende among you.
28 No rĩrĩ, mangĩkaarega kuoya gĩkombe kĩu kuuma guoko-inĩ gwaku manyue-rĩ, ũkameera atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga: No nginya mũnyue!
But if they refuse to take the cuppe at thine hande to drinke, then tell them, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Ye shall certainely drinke.
29 Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩnyambĩrĩirie kũrehe mwanangĩko itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene rĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩakwa; anga inyuĩ no mwage kũherithio? Mũtikaaga kũherithio, nĩ ũndũ nĩndĩrarehithĩria andũ arĩa othe matũũraga gũkũ thĩ rũhiũ rwa njora, ũguo nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.’
For loe, I beginne to plague the citie, where my Name is called vpon, and shoulde you goe free? Ye shall not goe quite: for I will call for a sword vpon al the inhabitants of the earth, saith the Lord of hostes.
30 “Rĩu marathĩre mohoro maya mothe, ũmeere atĩrĩ: “‘Jehova akaararama arĩ o kũu igũrũ; akaagamba ta ngwa arĩ gĩikaro-inĩ gĩake gĩtheru, na ararame na hinya, okĩrĩre bũrũri wake. Akaanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene mũno ta wa andũ arĩa marangagĩrĩria thabibũ, agũthũkĩre andũ othe arĩa matũũraga gũkũ thĩ.
Therefore prophecie thou against them al these words, and say vnto them, The Lord shall roare from aboue, and thrust out his voyce from his holy habitation: he shall roare vpon his habitation, and crie aloude, as they that presse the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 Inegene rĩu nĩrĩkaiguĩka nginya ituri-inĩ ciothe cia thĩ, nĩ ũndũ Jehova nĩagaciirithia ndũrĩrĩ; nĩagatuĩra andũ othe ciira na oorage arĩa aaganu na rũhiũ rwa njora,’” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
The sounde shall come to the endes of the earth: for the Lord hath a controuersie with the nations, and will enter into iudgement with all flesh, and he will giue them that are wicked, to the sworde, saith the Lord.
32 Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga: “Atĩrĩrĩ! Mwanangĩko nĩũrahunja kuuma rũrĩrĩ rũmwe nginya rũrĩa rũngĩ; kĩhuhũkanio nĩkĩrahuhũkana kuuma ituri-inĩ cia thĩ.”
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Behold, a plague shall goe foorth from nation to nation, and a great whirlewinde shalbe raised vp from the coastes of the earth,
33 Ihinda-inĩ rĩu andũ arĩa mooragithĩtio nĩ Jehova magaakorwo maaraganĩte kũndũ guothe, kuuma gĩturi kĩmwe gĩa thĩ nginya kĩrĩa kĩngĩ. Matikarĩrĩrwo, kana monganio, kana mathikwo, no magaaikara ta rũrua, mahurunjũkĩte thĩ.
And the slaine of the Lord shall be at that day, from one ende of the earth, euen vnto the other ende of the earth: they shall not bee mourned, neither gathered nor buried, but shalbe as the dongue vpon the grounde.
34 Rĩrai na mũgirĩke, inyuĩ arĩithi aya; mwĩgaragariei rũkũngũ-inĩ, inyuĩ atongoria a rũũru rwa mbũri. Nĩgũkorwo ihinda rĩanyu rĩa gũthĩnjwo nĩ ikinyu; mũkaagũa mũthuthĩke o ta rĩũmba rĩrĩa rĩega mũno.
Howle, ye shepherdes, and crie, and wallowe your selues in the ashes, ye principall of the flocke: for your dayes of slaughter are accomplished, and of your dispersion, and ye shall fall like precious vessels.
35 Arĩithi acio matikoona kũndũ gwa kũũrĩra, na atongoria a rũũru rwa mbũri matikoona gwa gwĩtharĩra.
And the flight shall faile from the shepherdes, and the escaping from the principall of the flocke.
36 Thikĩrĩriai mũigue kĩrĩro kĩa arĩithi, o na kĩgirĩko kĩa atongoria a rũũru rwa mbũri, nĩ ũndũ Jehova nĩaranangithia ũrĩithio wao.
A voyce of the crye of the shepherdes, and an howling of the principall of the flocke shalbe heard: for the Lord hath destroyed their pasture.
37 Ũrĩithio ũcio wa cianda-inĩ ũtarĩ ũgwati nĩũkanangwo tondũ wa marakara mahiũ ma Jehova.
And the best pastures are destroyed because of the wrath and indignation of the Lord.
38 Akoimagara ta mũrũũthi ũkiuma kĩmamo-inĩ kĩaguo, na bũrũri wao nĩũgaakira ihooru nĩ tondũ wa rũhiũ rwa njora rwa mũhinyanĩrĩria, na nĩ ũndũ wa marakara mahiũ ma Jehova.
He hath forsaken his couert, as the lyon: for their land is waste, because of the wrath of the oppressor, and because of ye wrath of his indignatio.
