Jeremia 30
1 Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri ĩrĩa yakinyĩrĩire Jeremia yumĩte kũrĩ Jehova:
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
2 “Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Andĩka ũhoro ũrĩa wothe ngwarĩirie ibuku-inĩ.’
“The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book.
3 Tondũ Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Matukũ nĩmarooka, rĩrĩa ngaarehe andũ akwa a Isiraeli na a Juda moime kũrĩa maatwarirwo maatahwo na ndĩmacookie bũrũri ũrĩa ndaheire maithe mao mawĩgwatĩre,’ ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.”
For, behold, the days come,’ says the LORD, ‘that I will reverse the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,’ says the LORD. ‘I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.’”
4 Ũyũ nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa Jehova aaririe ũkoniĩ Isiraeli na Juda:
These are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 “Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩtũiguĩte mũkayũrũrũko wa kũmakania, wa itua-nda, no ti wa thayũ.
For the LORD says: “We have heard a voice of trembling; a voice of fear, and not of peace.
6 Ta tuĩriai ũhoro, muone: Hihi mũndũ mũrũme no ahote gũciara mwana? Nĩ kĩĩ kĩragĩtũma nyone arũme othe arĩa marĩ hinya menyiitĩte nda ta mũtumia ũkũrũmwo, na o mũndũ akagarũrũka agatukia gĩthiithi?
Ask now, and see whether a man travails with child. Why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned pale?
7 Kaĩ mũthenya ũcio nĩũgakorwo ũrĩ mũrũrũ-ĩ! Gũtirĩ ũngĩ ũkahaana taguo. Gũgaakorwo kũrĩ ihinda rĩa kũnyariirĩka rĩa Jakubu, no nĩakahonokio kuuma harĩ guo.’
Alas, for that day is great, so that none is like it! It is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he will be saved out of it.
8 “Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Mũthenya ũcio nĩngoinanga icooki rĩu ndĩrĩeherie ngingo-inĩ ciao, na nduuange nga iria mohetwo nacio; nacio ndũrĩrĩ itigacooka kũmatua ngombo ciao rĩngĩ.
It will come to pass in that day, says the LORD of Hosts, that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds. Strangers will no more make them their bondservants;
9 Handũ ha ũguo, magaatungatagĩra Jehova Ngai wao, na Daudi mũthamaki wao, ũrĩa niĩ ngaamarahũrĩra.
but they will serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.
10 “‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio tiga gwĩtigĩra, wee Jakubu ndungata yakwa; tiga kũmaka, wee Isiraeli,’ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. ‘Ti-itherũ nĩngakũhonokia ngũrute kũu kũraya, na njiaro ciaku ndĩcirute bũrũri ũrĩa maathaamĩirio. Jakubu nĩagacookererwo nĩ thayũ o na ũgitĩri, na gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe ũgaatũma etigĩre.
Therefore don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says the LORD. Don’t be dismayed, Israel. For, behold, I will save you from afar, and save your offspring from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return, and will be quiet and at ease. No one will make him afraid.
11 Ndĩ hamwe nawe na nĩngakũhonokia,’ ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. ‘O na ingĩniina ndũrĩrĩ ciothe cia kũrĩa guothe ngũharaganĩirie, wee ndigakũniina biũ. No nĩngakũherithia na kĩhooto; ndikaareka ũthiĩ o ro ũguo itakũherithĩtie.’
For I am with you, says the LORD, to save you; for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.”
12 “Nĩ ũndũ Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “‘Kĩronda gĩaku gĩtingĩhona, nguraro ciaku itirĩ kĩhonia.
For the LORD says, “Your hurt is incurable. Your wound is grievous.
13 Hatirĩ na wa gũgũthaithanĩrĩra, kana ndawa ya kĩronda gĩaku, o na kana gĩa gũkũhonia.
There is no one to plead your cause, that you may be bound up. You have no healing medicines.
14 Athiritũ aku othe nĩmariganĩirwo nĩwe; ndũrĩ kĩene harĩo. Ngũgũthĩte o ta ũrĩa thũ ĩngĩkũgũtha, na ngaakũherithia o ta ũrĩa mũndũ ũtarĩ tha aherithanagia, nĩ ũndũ mahĩtia maku nĩ manene mũno, namo mehia maku makaingĩha makĩria.
All your lovers have forgotten you. They don’t seek you. For I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased.
15 Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma ũrĩrĩre kĩronda gĩaku, ũkarĩrĩra ruo rwaku rũtarĩ na kĩhonia? Nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa mahĩtia maku manenehete na mehia maku magakĩingĩha rĩ, nĩkĩo ngwĩkĩte maũndũ macio.
Why do you cry over your injury? Your pain is incurable. For the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins have increased, I have done these things to you.
16 “‘No rĩrĩ, andũ arĩa othe magaakũngʼaũrania o nao nĩmakangʼaũranio; thũ ciaku ciothe nĩigatwarwo ithaamĩrio. Arĩa magũtahaga indo ciaku nĩmagatahwo; arĩa othe magũtunyaga indo na niĩ nĩngamatunya.
Therefore all those who devour you will be devoured. All your adversaries, everyone of them, will go into captivity. Those who plunder you will be plunder. I will make all who prey on you become prey.
17 No nĩngagũcookeria ũgima waku, na ngũhonie nguraro ciaku,’ ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga, ‘tondũ wĩtagwo mũndũ mũte, Zayuni itũũra rĩtarĩ mũndũ ũrĩrũmbũyagia.’
For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds,” says the LORD, “because they have called you an outcast, saying, ‘It is Zion, whom no man seeks after.’”
18 “Ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: “‘Nĩngacookia ũgaacĩru wa Jakubu hema-inĩ ciake, nacio ciikaro ciake ndĩciiguĩre tha; itũũra rĩu inene nĩrĩgaakwo rĩngĩ o kũu rĩanangĩirwo, nayo nyũmba ya ũthamaki nĩĩkarũgama harĩa hamĩagĩrĩire.
The LORD says: “Behold, I will reverse the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places. The city will be built on its own hill, and the palace will be inhabited in its own place.
19 Kuuma kũu nĩgũkaiguuagwo gũkĩinĩrwo nyĩmbo cia gũcookia ngaatho, na kũiguuagwo mĩgambo ya gĩkeno. Nĩngamaingĩhia na matikanyihanyiiha; nĩngamaheithia gĩtĩĩo, na matikaagithio kĩene.
Thanksgiving will proceed out of them with the voice of those who make merry. I will multiply them, and they will not be few; I will also glorify them, and they will not be small.
20 Ciana ciao igaikaraga o ta matukũ-inĩ marĩa ma tene, nakĩo kĩrĩndĩ kĩao gĩtũũre kĩrũmĩte wega mbere yakwa; nĩngaherithia arĩa othe mamahinyagĩrĩria.
Their children also will be as before, and their congregation will be established before me. I will punish all who oppress them.
21 Mũtongoria wao agaakorwo arĩ ũmwe wa andũ ao kĩũmbe; o nake mwathi wao akoima o kũu thĩinĩ wa andũ ao. Nĩngamũreharehe nake oke hakuhĩ na niĩ, nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩkũ ũngĩĩrutĩra gũũka hakuhĩ na niĩ?’ ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Their prince will be one of them, and their ruler will proceed from amongst them. I will cause him to draw near, and he will approach me; for who is he who has had boldness to approach me?” says the LORD.
22 ‘Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩmũgatuĩka andũ akwa, na niĩ nduĩke Ngai wanyu.’”
“You shall be my people, and I will be your God.
23 Atĩrĩrĩ, mangʼũrĩ ma Jehova nĩmagatuthũka mahaana ta kĩhuhũkanio; ti-itherũ makaahaana ta rũhuho rũkũhurutana mũno, igũrũ rĩa andũ arĩa aaganu.
Behold, the LORD’s storm, his wrath, has gone out, a sweeping storm; it will burst on the head of the wicked.
24 Marakara mahiũ ma Jehova matigaathira, o nginya rĩrĩa akaahingia muoroto wa ngoro yake biũ. Matukũ-inĩ marĩa magooka-rĩ, nĩmũgataũkĩrwo nĩ ũhoro ũcio wega.
The fierce anger of the LORD will not return until he has accomplished, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.”
