< Jeremia 5 >

1 “Ta ambatai na mũikũrũke barabara-inĩ ciothe cia Jerusalemu, mũrore na mũcarie, na mũtuĩrie ihaaro-inĩ ciakuo. Hihi mwahota kuona mũndũ o na ũmwe wĩkaga maũndũ ma kĩhooto kana akarũmbũiya ũhoro wa ma; muona mũndũ ta ũcio, nĩngarekera itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu.
Rove about in [the] streets of Jerusalem and see please and observe and search in open places its if you will find a person if there [is one who] does justice [one who] seeks faithfulness so I may forgive it.
2 O na gũtuĩka nĩmehĩtaga makoigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo,’ kwĩhĩta kwao no kwa maheeni.”
And though [by] [the] life of Yahweh people say therefore to falsehood they are swearing oaths.
3 Wee Jehova, githĩ maitho maku ti ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma macaragia? Wamaringire iringa, no matiigana kũigua ruo; wamahehenjire, no makĩrega ũtaarani ũcio. Momirie ithiithi ciao gũkĩra ihiga, makĩrega kwĩrira.
O Yahweh [are] eyes your ¿ not to faithfulness you struck them and not they writhed you brought to an end them they refused to accept correction they made strong faces their more than rock they refused to return.
4 Ngĩĩciiria atĩrĩ: “Aya nĩ andũ athĩĩni; nĩ andũ akĩĩgu, nĩgũkorwo matiũĩ njĩra ya Jehova, kana makamenya ũrĩa Ngai wao endaga.
And I I said only [are] poor [people] they they have acted foolishly for not they know [the] way of Yahweh [the] ordinance of God their.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩngũthiĩ kũrĩ atongoria ngaaranĩrie nao; ti-itherũ acio nĩmoĩ njĩra ya Jehova, na makamenya ũrĩa Ngai wao endaga.” No rĩrĩ, othe marĩ hamwe, nĩmoinangĩte icooki rĩao rĩa ngingo, na magatua mĩkwa.
I will go for myself to the great and I will speak them for they they know [the] way of Yahweh [the] ordinance of God their nevertheless they alike they had broken off a yoke they had torn off fetters.
6 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo-rĩ, mũrũũthi nĩũkoima mũtitũ-inĩ ũmatharĩkĩre, na njũũi yume werũ-inĩ ĩmatambuurange, nayo ngarĩ ĩmooherie njĩra-inĩ cia matũũra mao, nĩguo ĩtambuurange mũndũ wothe ũrĩa ũngĩgeria kuuma nja, nĩ ũndũ ũremi ũcio wao nĩũingĩhĩte mũno, na ũhoro wao wa gũcooka na thuutha nĩ mũingĩ.
There-fore it will attack them a lion from a forest a wolf of desert plains it will devastate them a leopard [will be] watching over cities their every [one who] goes out from them he will be torn in pieces for they are many transgressions their they are numerous (apostasies their. *Q(k)*)
7 “Ngũmũrekera nĩkĩ? Ciana cianyu nĩciindirikĩte, na ikeehĩta ikĩgwetaga marĩĩtwa ma ngai cia tũhũ. Niĩ ndaamaheaga o kĩrĩa gĩothe mabataragio nĩkĩo, no-o no gũtharia maatharagia, makahatĩkana nĩguo matoonye nyũmba cia maraya.
Where? for this (will I forgive *Q(k)*) you children your they have forsaken me and they have sworn by not gods and I satisfied them and they committed adultery and [the] house of a prostitute they cut themselves.
8 Mahũũnĩte magatuĩka ta mbarathi cia njamba cikĩĩrirĩria cia mĩgoma, o ũmwe wao akeriragĩria mũtumia wa mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ.
Horses well fed lustful they are everyone to [the] wife of neighbor his they neigh.
9 Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmaherithia nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ macio?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩ kwĩrĩhĩria harĩ rũrĩrĩ ta rũu?
¿ On these [things] not will I punish [the] utterance of Yahweh and or? on a nation which [is] like this [one] not will it avenge itself self my.
10 “Tuĩkanĩriai mĩgũnda yao ya mĩthabibũ mũmĩharaganie, no mũtikamĩanange biũ. Hũrũrai honge ciayo, nĩgũkorwo andũ aya ti a Jehova.
Go up among vine rows its and destroy [them] and complete destruction may not you make remove vine tendrils its for not [belong] to Yahweh they.
11 Andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli na andũ a nyũmba ya Juda nĩmagĩte wĩhokeku harĩ niĩ biũ,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
For certainly they have dealt treacherously with me [the] house of Israel and [the] house of Judah [the] utterance of Yahweh.
12 Nĩmaheenanĩtie ũhoro wĩgiĩ Jehova; moigĩte atĩrĩ, “Ndarĩ ũndũ egwĩka! Gũtirĩ ũũru tũkuona; tũtikoona tũtharĩkĩirwo na rũhiũ rwa njora kana tuone ngʼaragu.
They have denied Yahweh and they have said not he and not it will come on us harm and sword and famine not we will see.
13 Anabii nĩ a tũhũ ta rũhuho, nakĩo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩtirĩ thĩinĩ wao; nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, ũguo moigĩte nĩguo mageekwo.”
And the prophets they will become wind and the word not [is] in them thus let it be done to them.
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Tondũ wa andũ acio kwaria ndeto ta icio, ndũmĩrĩri yakwa ĩrĩa ngwĩkĩra kanua-inĩ gaku ngaamĩtua ta mwaki, nao andũ aya ndĩmatue ta ngũ, mwaki ũcio ũmacine ũmaniine.
Therefore thus he says Yahweh [the] God of hosts because have spoken you the word this here I [am] about to make words my in mouth your into a fire and the people this wood and it will consume them.
15 Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli,” ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekũmwĩra, “nĩngũtũma mũũkĩrĩrwo nĩ rũrĩrĩ ruumĩte kũndũ kũraya: naruo nĩ rũrĩrĩ rũtũũrĩte kuuma o tene, andũ mũtangĩmenya rũthiomi rwao, o na kana mũigue mwarĩrie wao.
Here I [am] about to bring on you a nation from a distance O house of Israel [the] utterance of Yahweh [is] a nation - enduring it [is] a nation from long ago it a nation [which] not you know language its and not you hear what? does it say.
16 Mathiaka ma mĩguĩ yao matariĩ ta mbĩrĩra iria ĩtathikĩtwo; othe nĩ njamba irĩ hinya.
Quiver its [is] like a grave open all of them [are] warriors.
17 Nao nĩmakaarĩa na maniine magetha manyu o na irio cianyu, na marĩe na maniine aanake na airĩtu anyu; nĩmakaarĩa ndũũru cianyu cia mbũri na cia ngʼombe maciniine, ningĩ marĩe mĩthabibũ na mĩkũyũ yanyu. Nĩmakananga matũũra marĩa mairigĩre na rũhiũ rwa njora, o macio mwĩhokaga.
And it will devour harvest your and food your they will devour sons your and daughters your it will devour flock[s] your and herd[s] your it will devour vine[s] your and fig tree[s] your it will shatter [the] cities of fortifications your which you [are] trusting in them with the sword.
18 “No rĩrĩ, o na matukũ-inĩ macio, ndigakwananga ngũniine biũ,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And also in the days those [the] utterance of Yahweh not I will make with you complete destruction.
19 “Na rĩrĩa andũ makooria atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte Jehova Ngai witũ atwĩke maũndũ maya mothe?’ Ũkamacookeria, ũmeere atĩrĩ: ‘O ta ũrĩa inyuĩ mwandirikire na mũgĩtungatĩra ngai cia kũngĩ mũrĩ bũrũri-inĩ wanyu-rĩ, ũguo noguo mũgaatungatagĩra andũ a kũngĩ mũrĩ bũrũri ũtarĩ wanyu.’
And it will be that you will say for what? did he do Yahweh God our to us all these [things] and you will say to them just as you forsook me and you served gods of foreignness in own land your so you will serve strangers in a land [which] not [belongs] to you.
20 “Anĩrĩra ũhoro ũyũ kũrĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Jakubu, na ũũhunjie kũu Juda, uuge atĩrĩ:
Declare this in [the] house of Jacob and proclaim it in Judah saying.
21 Ta thikĩrĩriai inyuĩ andũ aya akĩĩgu na mũtarĩ mbuguĩro, o inyuĩ mũrĩ na maitho na mũtionaga, na mũrĩ na matũ na mũtiiguaga:
Hear please this O people fool and there not [is] a heart eyes [belong] to them and not they see ears [belong] to them and not they hear.
22 Githĩ inyuĩ mũtiagĩrĩirwo nĩkũnjĩtigĩra?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Githĩ inyuĩ mũtiagĩrĩirwo nĩkũinaina mũrĩ mbere yakwa? Ndaatũmire mũthanga ũtuĩke mũhaka wa iria rĩrĩa inene, ngĩũtua rũirigo rwa gũtũũra, rũtangĩagararwo nĩ iria rĩu. Makũmbĩ ma maaĩ no moyane, no matingĩrũtooria, no mahũyũke, no matingĩrwagarara.
¿ Me not do you fear [the] utterance of Yahweh or? from before me not do you tremble who I appointed [the] sand a boundary for the sea a decree of perpetuity and not it will pass over it and they shook back and forth and not they will prevail and they roar waves its and not they will pass over it.
23 No andũ aya-rĩ, marĩ ngoro cia rũngʼathio na nemi; nĩmahĩtĩtie njĩra na makoora.
And to the people this it belongs a heart stubborn and rebellious they have turned aside and they have gone away.
24 Nao matingĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩtwĩtigĩrei Jehova Ngai witũ, ũrĩa ũheanaga mbura ya kũmeria hĩĩra, na ya gũkũria irio o kĩmera gĩakinya, o we ũrĩa ũtũheaga mwĩhoko wa kũgetha mahinda maakinya.’
And not they said in heart their let us fear please Yahweh God our who gives rain (autumn rain *Q(K)*) and spring rain at appropriate time its [the] weeks of [the] appointments of harvest he keeps for us.
25 Mahĩtia manyu nĩmo matũmĩte mũraihĩrĩrio nĩ maũndũ macio; mehia manyu matũmĩte mwage maũndũ marĩa mega.
Iniquities your they have turned aside these [things] and sins your they have withheld good from you.
26 “Thĩinĩ wa andũ akwa-rĩ, nĩ kũrĩ andũ aaganu arĩa maikaraga moheirie ta andũ arĩa mategaga nyoni, na ta andũ arĩa mambaga mĩtego ya kũgwatia andũ.
For they are found among people my wicked [people] he watches as bend fowlers they set a destroyer people they catch.
27 O ta ũrĩa gĩkerenge kĩiyũraga nyoni, ũguo nĩguo nyũmba ciao ciyũrĩte ũheenania; matongete na makagĩa na hinya,
Like a cage full bird[s] so houses their [are] full deceit there-fore they have become great and they have gained riches.
28 ningĩ manorete na makanyoroka mwĩrĩ. Waganu wao nĩũingĩhĩte mũno; maticiiragĩrĩra mwana wa ndigwa nĩguo ahootane ciira-inĩ, na matirũagĩrĩra kĩhooto kĩa mũndũ mũkĩa.
They have become fat they have become smooth also they have transgressed matters of evil a cause not they have pleaded [the] cause of [the] fatherless so they may have success and [the] justice of needy [people] not they have judged.
29 Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmaherithia nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ macio?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩ kwĩrĩhĩria harĩ rũrĩrĩ ta rũrũ?
¿ On these [things] not will I punish [the] utterance of Yahweh or? on a nation which [is] like this [one] not will it avenge itself self my.
30 “Ũndũ mũũru mũno na wa kũmakania nĩwĩkĩkĩte bũrũri-inĩ ũyũ:
An atrocious event and a horrible [thing] it has occurred in the land.
31 Anabii marathaga mohoro ma maheeni, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai magaathana ũrĩa mekwenda, nao andũ akwa ũguo nĩguo mendaga. No inyuĩ-rĩ, kĩrĩkĩrĩro-inĩ kĩa maũndũ macio mũgeeka atĩa?
The prophets they have prophesied with falsehood and the priests they are ruling on hands their and people my they have loved thus and what? will you do to end its.
