< Jeremia 28 >

1 Mweri-inĩ wa gatano mwaka-inĩ ũcio, nĩguo mwaka wa kana, o kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ kĩa ũthamaki wa Zedekia mũthamaki wa Juda, mũnabii wetagwo Hanania mũrũ wa Azuri, ũrĩa woimĩte Gibeoni, nĩanjĩĩrire atĩrĩ, tũrĩ o kũu nyũmba ya Jehova mbere ya athĩnjĩri-Ngai na andũ arĩa angĩ othe:
And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, [that] Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the house of Jehovah, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
2 “Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Nĩnyunangĩte icooki rĩa mũthamaki wa Babuloni.
Thus speaketh Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 Mĩaka ĩĩrĩ ĩtanathira, nĩngũcookithia indo cia nyũmba ya Jehova gũkũ, iria Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni aarutire gũkũ agĩcitwara Babuloni.
Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of Jehovah's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried to Babylon;
4 Ningĩ Jekonia mũrũ wa Jehoiakimu mũthamaki wa Juda, nĩngamũcookia marĩ hamwe na andũ othe arĩa maatahĩtwo kuuma Juda magĩtwarwo Babuloni, nĩ ũndũ nĩnyunangĩte icooki rĩa mũthamaki wa Babuloni,’” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
and I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah that went to Babylon, saith Jehovah: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũnabii Jeremia agĩcookeria mũnabii Hanania ũhoro arĩ hau mbere ya athĩnjĩri-Ngai hamwe na andũ arĩa angĩ othe marũgamĩte kũu nyũmba ya Jehova.
And the prophet Jeremiah spoke unto the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of Jehovah.
6 Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Kũrotuĩka guo! Jehova aroeka o ũguo! Jehova arohingia ũhoro ũcio waratha na ũndũ wa gũcookithia indo icio cia nyũmba ya Jehova, o na andũ othe arĩa maatahirwo gũkũ amacookie kuuma Babuloni.
And the prophet Jeremiah said, Amen, may Jehovah do so! may Jehovah perform thy words which thou hast prophesied, to bring again from Babylon, into this place, the vessels of Jehovah's house, and all them of the captivity!
7 No rĩrĩ, ta thikĩrĩria ũigue ũhoro ũrĩa ngwaria ũkĩĩiguagĩra na matũ, o nao andũ aya othe makĩiguaga:
Nevertheless, hear, I pray thee, this word which I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people:
8 Kuuma o mahinda ma tene, anabii arĩa maarĩ mbere yaku o na yakwa-rĩ, maatũũrĩte marathaga ũhoro wa mbaara, na mwanangĩko, na mũthiro, gũũkĩrĩra mabũrũri maingĩ o na mothamaki marĩ hinya.
The prophets that have been before me and before thee of old, prophesied also concerning many countries and concerning great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of pestilence.
9 No rĩrĩ, mũnabii ũrĩa ũrathagĩra andũ ũhoro wa thayũ akaamenyeka wega atĩ ti-itherũ nĩ Jehova wamũtũmĩte o rĩrĩa ũrathi wake ũkaahinga.”
The prophet that prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, shall be known as the prophet whom Jehovah hath really sent.
10 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũnabii Hanania akĩruta icooki ngingo-inĩ ya Jeremia na akĩriunanga,
And the prophet Hananiah took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.
11 agĩcooka akiuga andũ acio othe marĩ ho atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Ũguo noguo ngoinanga icooki rĩa Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni, rĩehere ngingo-inĩ cia ndũrĩrĩ ciothe mĩaka ĩĩrĩ ĩtanathira.’” Mũnabii Jeremia aigua ũguo agĩĩthiĩra.
And Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: So will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon within two full years from off the neck of all the nations. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.
12 Kahinda kanini thuutha wa mũnabii Hanania kuunanga icooki rĩu rĩarĩ ngingo-inĩ ya Jeremia ũcio mũnabii, ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova nĩyakinyĩire Jeremia akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
And the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah, after that the prophet Hananiah had broken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
13 “Thiĩ wĩre Hanania atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: Wee uunangĩte icooki rĩa mũtĩ, no rĩrĩ, handũ harĩo ũgeekĩrwo icooki rĩa kĩgera.
Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou hast broken the yokes of wood, and thou hast made in their place yokes of iron.
14 Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga: Nĩngekĩra ndũrĩrĩ icio ciothe icooki rĩa kĩgera ngingo, nĩgeetha ndũme itungatĩre Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni, na nĩikamũtungatĩra. O na nĩngamũhe wathani aathage nyamũ cia gĩthaka.’”
For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I have given him the beasts of the field also.
15 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũnabii Jeremia akĩĩra Hanania ũcio mũnabii atĩrĩ, “Hanania, ta thikĩrĩria! Jehova ndagũtũmĩte, no wee-rĩ, nĩũringĩrĩirie rũrĩrĩ rũrũ rwĩhoke ũhoro wa maheeni.
And the prophet Jeremiah said unto the prophet Hananiah, Hear now, Hananiah: Jehovah hath not sent thee; and thou makest this people to trust in falsehood.
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Ndĩ hakuhĩ gũkweheria thĩ. Mwaka-inĩ o ro ũyũ nĩũgũkua, tondũ nĩũhunjĩtie ũremi wa gũũkĩrĩra Jehova.’”
Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, for thou hast spoken revolt against Jehovah.
17 Mweri-inĩ wa mũgwanja wa mwaka o ro ũcio-rĩ, Hanania ũcio mũnabii agĩkua.
And the prophet Hananiah died in the same year in the seventh month.
