Jeremia 27
1 O kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ kĩa wathani wa Zedekia mũrũ wa Josia, mũthamaki wa Juda, ndũmĩrĩri ĩno nĩyakinyĩrĩire Jeremia yumĩte kũrĩ Jehova:
In the beginning of the reigne of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah came this worde vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 Nake Jehova akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩthondekere icooki rĩa mĩkwa na mĩtĩ mĩkĩranie, ũcooke ũmĩĩkĩre ngingo.
Thus saith the Lord to me, Make thee bonds, and yokes, and put them vpon thy necke,
3 Ũcooke ũtũme ndũmĩrĩri kũrĩ athamaki a Edomu, na Moabi, na Amoni, na Turo na Sidoni ũmĩnengerete abarũthi ao arĩa mokĩte Jerusalemu kũrĩ Zedekia mũthamaki wa Juda.
And send them to the King of Edom, and to the King of Moab, and to the King of the Ammonites, and to the King of Tyrus, and to the king of Zidon, by the hande of the messengers which come to Ierusale vnto Zedekiah ye king of Iudah,
4 Mahe ndũmĩrĩri matwarĩre anene ao, ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga: “Ĩrai anene anyu atĩrĩ:
And commande them to saye vnto their masters, Thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Thus shall ye say vnto your masters,
5 Niĩ nĩ niĩ ndombire thĩ na andũ arĩa marĩ kuo o na nyamũ iria irĩ kuo na hinya wakwa mũnene na ndambũrũkĩtie guoko gwakwa, na ndĩmĩheaga o mũndũ ũrĩa ingĩenda kũhe.
I haue made the earth, the man, and the beast that are vpon the groud, by my great power, and by my outstreched arme, and haue giuen it vnto whom it pleased me.
6 Na rĩu nĩngũneana mabũrũri manyu mothe kũrĩ ndungata yakwa Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni; nĩngũtũma o na nyamũ cia gĩthaka imũtungatagĩre.
But nowe I haue giuen all these landes into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel my seruant, and the beastes of the fielde haue I also giuen him to serue him.
7 Ndũrĩrĩ ciothe nĩikamũtungatĩra we, na mũriũ, o na mwana wa mũriũ, nginya rĩrĩa ihinda rĩa bũrũri wake rĩgaakinya; hĩndĩ ĩyo ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ na athamaki anene nĩmakamũtua wa kũmatungatagĩra arĩ o.
And all nations shall serue him, and his sonne, and his sonnes sonne vntill the very time of his lande come also: then many nations and great Kinges shall serue themselues of him.
8 “‘“No rĩrĩ, rũrĩrĩ o ruothe kana ũthamaki o wothe arĩa makaaga gũtungatĩra Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni, kana marege kũinamia ngingo mekĩrwo icooki rĩake, nĩngaherithia rũrĩrĩ rũu na rũhiũ rwa njora, na ngʼaragu, na mũthiro, nginya rĩrĩa ngarũniinithia na guoko gwake, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And the nation and kingdome which will not serue the same Nebuchad-nezzar king of Babel, and that will not put their necke vnder the yoke of the King of Babel, the same nation will I visite, saith the Lord, with the sworde, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, vntill I haue wholy giuen them into his hands.
9 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, tigai gũthikĩrĩria anabii anyu, na arathi anyu, na ataũri-a-irooto, na aragũri, kana andũ-ago, o acio mamwĩraga atĩrĩ: ‘Inyuĩ mũtirĩ hĩndĩ mũgaatungatĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni.’
Therefore heare not your prophets nor your southsayers, nor your dreamers, nor your inchanters, nor your sorcerers, which say vnto you thus, Ye shall not serue the King of Babel.
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩ ũhoro wa maheeni mamũrathagĩra, marĩa magaatũma mũtahwo, mũtwarwo kũndũ kũraya na bũrũri wanyu; ngamũingata, mũniinwo biũ.
For they prophecie a lie vnto you to cause you to goe farre from your lande, and that I should cast you out, and you should perish.
11 No rũrĩrĩ rũrĩa ruothe rũkainamia ngingo rwĩkĩrwo icooki rĩa mũthamaki wa Babuloni na rũmũtungatĩre-rĩ, nĩngetĩkĩria rũrĩrĩ rũu rũtũũre bũrũri-inĩ wao kĩũmbe, marĩmage na maikarage kuo, ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.”’”
But the nation that put their neckes vnder the yoke of the King of Babel, and serue him, those wil I let remaine stil in their owne land, saith the Lord, and they shall occupie it, and dwel therein.
12 Nĩndaheanire ndũmĩrĩri o ro ĩyo kũrĩ Zedekia mũthamaki wa Juda. Ngĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Inamia ngingo yaku, wĩkĩrwo icooki rĩa mũthamaki wa Babuloni; mũtungatĩre we mwene na andũ ake, na nĩũgũtũũra muoyo.
I spake also to Zedekiah king of Iudah according to all these wordes, saying, Put your neckes vnder the yoke of the King of Babel, and serue him and his people, that ye may liue.
13 Wee mwene mũrĩ na andũ aku-rĩ, mũgũkĩĩninithia nĩkĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, na ngʼaragu, o na mũthiro, o icio Jehova atuĩrĩire rũrĩrĩ o ruothe rũrĩa rũtagatungatĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni?
Why will ye dye, thou, and thy people by the sworde, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as the Lord hath spoken against the nation, that will not serue the King of Babel?
14 Tiga gũthikĩrĩria ũhoro wa anabii acio makwĩraga atĩrĩ, ‘Wee ndũrĩ hĩndĩ ũgaatungatĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni,’ tondũ makũrathagĩra ũhoro wa maheeni.
Therefore heare not the words of the prophets, that speake vnto you, saying, Ye shall not serue the King of Babel: for they prophecie a lie vnto you.
15 ‘Niĩ ndimatũmĩte,’ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. ‘Mararatha ũhoro wa maheeni, makĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩakwa. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngamũingata, na inyuĩ mũniinwo biũ, wee hamwe na anabii acio makũrathagĩra mohoro.’”
For I haue not sent them, saith the Lord, yet they prophecie a lie in my name, that I might cast you out, and that ye might perish, both you, and the prophets that prophecie vnto you.
16 Ngĩcooka ngĩĩra athĩnjĩri-Ngai na andũ acio angĩ othe atĩrĩ: “Ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: Tigai gũthikĩrĩria anabii acio mamwĩraga atĩrĩ, ‘Hatigairie o kahinda kanini, nacio indo iria ciarutirwo nyũmba ya Jehova icookio kuuma Babuloni.’ Maramũrathĩra ũhoro wa maheeni.
Also I spake to the Priests, and to all this people, saying, Thus saith the Lord, Heare not the wordes of your prophets that prophecie vnto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the house of the Lord shall nowe shortly be brought againe from Babel, for they prophecie a lie vnto you.
17 Tigai kũmathikĩrĩria. Tungatĩrai mũthamaki wa Babuloni, na nĩmũgũtũũra muoyo. Kaĩ itũũra rĩĩrĩ rĩngĩkĩanangwo nĩkĩ?
Heare them not, but serue the King of Babel, that ye may liue: wherefore shoulde this citie be desolate?
18 Angĩkorwo acio nĩ anabii marĩ na ndũmĩrĩri kuuma kũrĩ Jehova-rĩ, nĩmagĩthaithe Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩguo indo iria itigarĩte gũkũ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jehova, o na thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya mũthamaki wa Juda, o na kũu Jerusalemu itigatwarwo Babuloni.
But if they be Prophets, and if the word of the Lord be with them, let them intreate the Lord of hostes, that the vessels, which are left in the House of the Lord, and in the house of the King of Iudah, and at Ierusalem, go not to Babel.
19 Nĩ ũndũ ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe oigĩte ũhoro ũkoniĩ itugĩ cia hekarũ, na karia ka maaĩ, indo cia kũigĩrĩra iria ingĩ, na indo ciothe cia nyũmba ingĩkorwo itigaire gũkũ itũũra-inĩ rĩĩrĩ inene,
For thus saith the Lord of hostes, concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue of the vessels that remaine in this citie,
20 iria Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni ataakuuire hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aatahire Jekonia mũrũ wa Jehoiakimu mũthamaki wa Juda agĩthaamio arutĩtwo Jerusalemu na agĩtwarwo Babuloni, we mwene hamwe na andũ othe a Juda na a Jerusalemu arĩa maarĩ igweta:
Which Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel tooke not, when he caryed away captiue Ieconiah the sonne of Iehoiakim King of Iudah from Ierusalem to Babel, with all the nobles of Iudah and Ierusalem.
21 ĩĩ, ti-itherũ Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli oigĩte atĩrĩ ũhoro ũkoniĩ indo icio itigaire thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jehova, o na thĩinĩ wa gĩikaro kĩa mũthamaki wa Juda, o na kũu Jerusalemu:
For thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that remaine in the House of the Lord, and in the house of the King of Iudah, and at Ierusalem,
22 ‘Nĩigatwarwo Babuloni, na igaikara kũu nginya mũthenya ũrĩa ngooka gũcigĩĩra,’ ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. ‘Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩngacirehe ndĩcicookie gũkũ.’”
They shall be brought to Babel, and there they shalbe vntil the day that I visite them, saith the Lord: then will I bring them vp, and restore them vnto this place.
