< Jeremia 50 >
1 Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri ĩrĩa Jehova aaririe na kanua ka Jeremia ũcio mũnabii, ũhoro ũkoniĩ Babuloni na andũ a bũrũri wa Babuloni:
And it came to pass, when Jeremias ceased speaking to the people all the words of the Lord, [for] which the Lord had sent him to them, [even] all these words,
2 “Anĩrĩrai na mũhunjanĩrie ũhoro ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, haandai kĩbebero na mũhunjanĩrie ũhoro wakĩo; mũtikamahithe ũndũ, no mũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Babuloni nĩgũgũtunyanwo; Beli nĩĩgũconorithio, nayo Merodaki ĩiyũrwo nĩ kĩmako. Mĩhianano yakuo nĩĩgaconorithio, na mĩhianano yao nĩĩkaiyũrwo nĩ guoya.’
that Azarias son of Maasaeas spoke, and Joanan, the son of Caree, and all the men who had spoken to Jeremias, saying, [It is] false: the Lord has not sent you to us, saying, Enter not into Egypt to dwell there:
3 Tondũ rũrĩrĩ ruumĩte mwena wa gathigathini nĩrũkamũtharĩkĩra, na rwanange bũrũri wake. Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũgaatũũra kuo; andũ nĩmakoora o hamwe na nyamũ.
but Baruch the son of Nerias sets you against us, that you may deliver us into the hands of the Chaldeans, to kill us, and that we should be carried away captives to Babylon.
4 “Matukũ-inĩ macio, na ihinda-inĩ rĩu, andũ a Isiraeli na andũ a Juda hamwe nĩmagathiĩ macarie Jehova Ngai wao makĩrĩraga,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
So Joanan, and all the leaders of the host, and all the people, refused to listen to the voice of the Lord, to dwell in the land of Juda.
5 “Nĩmakoorĩrĩria njĩra ya gũthiĩ Zayuni, na magarũrũke, merekeirie mothiũ mao kuo. Nĩmagooka meeohanie na Jehova, na marĩkanĩre kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa gũtũũra tene na tene kĩrĩa gĩtagacooka kũriganĩra.
And Joanan, and all the leaders of the host, took all the remnant of Juda, who had returned to dwell in the land;
6 “Andũ akwa makoretwo marĩ ngʼondu ciũrĩte; arĩithi ao nĩmamahĩtithĩtie njĩra, na magatũma morũũre irĩma igũrũ. Nao morũũrĩte kuuma kĩrĩma-inĩ nginya karĩma-inĩ, makariganĩrwo nĩ kũrĩa ũhurũko wao ũrĩ.
the mighty men, and the women, and the children that were left, and the daughters of the king, and the souls which Nabuzardan had left with Godolias the son of Achicam and Jeremias the prophet, and Baruch the son of Nerias.
7 Ũrĩa wothe wamoonire akĩmatambuura; thũ ciao ikiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ithuĩ tũtirĩ na ihĩtia, nĩ ũndũ nĩmehĩirie Jehova, ũrĩa arĩ we ũrĩithio wao wa ma, o we Jehova, mwĩhoko wa maithe mao.’
And they came into Egypt: for they listened not to the voice of the Lord: and they entered into Taphnas.
8 “Mwĩtharei muume Babuloni; eherai bũrũri wa andũ a Babuloni, na mũtuĩke ta thenge iria itongoragia rũũru rwa mbũri.
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias in Taphnas, saying,
9 Nĩgũkorwo nĩngarahũra ũiguano wa ndũrĩrĩ nene, ciumĩte bũrũri wa gathigathini ciũkĩrĩre Babuloni. Nĩikarũgama handũ ha cio irĩũkĩrĩre na igũtunyane, kuuma mwena ũcio wa gathigathini. Mĩguĩ yao ĩgaatuĩka ta ĩrĩa ya njamba njoorua, iria itacookaga moko matheri.
Take you great stones, and hide them in the entrance, at the gate of the house of Pharao in Taphnas, in the sight of the men of Juda:
10 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Babuloni nĩgũgatahwo; andũ othe arĩa magaagũtaha nĩmagakuua indo cia kũmaigana,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
and you shall say, Thus has the Lord said; Behold, I [will] send, and will bring Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and he shall place his throne upon these stones which you have hidden, and he shall lift up weapons against them.
11 “Tondũ nĩmũkenete na mũkarũũhia, inyuĩ arĩa mũtahaga igai rĩakwa, tondũ mũgũtũũha ta moori ĩkĩraanga ngano ĩkĩmĩhũũra, na mũkaania ta mbarathi cia njamba,
And he shall enter in, and strike the land of Egypt, [delivering] some for death to death; and some for captivity to captivity; and some for the sword to the sword.
12 nyina wanyu nĩagaconoka mũno; we ũcio wamũciarire nĩagaconorithio. Nĩwe ũgaakorwo arĩ mũnini mũno ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ, atuĩke ta werũ, na ta bũrũri mũngʼaru, o na ta werũ wa mũthanga.
And he shall kindle a fire in the houses of their gods, and shall burn them, and shall carry them away captives: and shall search the land of Egypt, as a shepherd searches his garment; and he shall go forth in peace.
13 Tondũ wa marakara ma Jehova, bũrũri ũcio ndũgacooka gũtũũrwo nĩ andũ, no rĩrĩ, nĩgũkira gũgaakira ihooru biũ. Andũ arĩa othe makaagerera kũu Babuloni nĩmakamaka, na manyũrũrie kũndũ kũu tondũ wa ũrĩa gũgaakorwo kwanangĩtwo.
And he shall break to pieces the pillars of Heliopolis that are in On, and shall burn their houses with fire.
14 “Mwĩhaarĩrie mũthiũrũrũkĩrie Babuloni, inyuothe arĩa mũgeetaga ũta. Rĩrathei! Mũtigatigie mĩguĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩrĩĩhĩirie Jehova.
15 Riugĩrĩriei kuuma na mĩena yothe! Nĩrĩĩneanĩte rĩo rĩene, mĩthiringo yarĩo nĩĩgwĩte, na thingo ciarĩo nĩimomokete. Nĩgũkorwo rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo irĩhĩria rĩa Jehova-rĩ, mwĩrĩhĩriei harĩ rĩo; rĩĩkei o ta ũrĩa rĩaneeka andũ arĩa angĩ.
16 Eheriai ũrĩa ũhaandaga kũu Babuloni, na ũrĩa ũgethaga na rũhiũ rwake hĩndĩ ya magetha. Tondũ wa rũhiũ rũu rwa njora rwa mũhinyanĩrĩria-rĩ, o mũndũ nĩacooke kũrĩ andũ ao, o mũndũ nĩorĩre bũrũri wao kĩũmbe.
17 “Isiraeli ahaana ta rũũru rũhurunjũkĩte, rũtengʼeretio nĩ mĩrũũthi. Mũthamaki wa Ashuri nĩwe warĩ wa mbere kũmũtambuura; wa kũrigĩrĩria kũmũhehenja mahĩndĩ-rĩ, aarĩ Nebukadinezaru, mũthamaki wa Babuloni.”
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Nĩngaherithia mũthamaki wa Babuloni na bũrũri wake, o ta ũrĩa ndaaherithirie mũthamaki wa Ashuri.
19 No nĩngacookia Isiraeli ũrĩithio-inĩ wake mwene, nake akaarĩithagĩria kũu Karimeli na Bashani; akaarĩĩaga akahũũna kũu irima-inĩ cia Efiraimu, na cia Gileadi.
20 Matukũ-inĩ macio, o ihinda-inĩ rĩu-rĩ, ihĩtia rĩa Isiraeli nĩrĩgathuthuurio, no rĩtikoneka, o na mehia ma Juda mathuthuurio, no matikooneka, nĩgũkorwo matigari marĩa ngaahonokia nĩngamarekera,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
21 “Tharĩkĩrai bũrũri wa Merathaimu, mũũkĩrĩre arĩa matũũraga Pekodi. Matengʼeriei, na mũmoorage, mũmaniine biũ,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Ĩkai ũrĩa wothe ndĩmwathĩte.
22 Kũrĩ na mbugĩrĩrio ya mbaara bũrũri-inĩ ũcio, nayo nĩ mbugĩrĩrio ya kũniinanwo kũnene!
23 Nyondo ĩrĩa ĩtũũrĩte ĩhũũraga thĩ yothe-rĩ, kaĩ nĩyunangĩtwo, ĩgathethereka-ĩ! Kaĩ Babuloni nĩgũkirĩte ihooru gatagatĩ-inĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ-ĩ!
24 Ndaakwambĩire mũtego, wee Babuloni, nawe ũkĩgwatio nĩguo ũtekũmenya; wakorereirwo, ũkĩnyiitwo tondũ wa gũkararia Jehova.
25 Jehova nĩahingũrĩte harĩa aigaga indo ciake cia mbaara, akaruta indo icio cia mbaara cia mangʼũrĩ make, nĩgũkorwo Mwathani Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe arĩ na wĩra wa kũruta kũu bũrũri-inĩ wa andũ a Babuloni.
26 Ũkaai mũgũtharĩkĩre muumĩte kũndũ kũraya. Thariai makũmbĩ makuo; gũcookanĩrĩriei irũndo ta cia hĩba cia ngano. Kwanangei biũ, na mũtigatigie matigari kuo.
27 Ũragai tũtegwa twakuo tuothe, tũikũrũkiei tũgathĩnjwo! Kaĩ marĩ na haaro-ĩ! Nĩgũkorwo mũthenya watuo nĩmũkinyu, ihinda rĩatuo rĩa kũherithio.
28 Ta thikĩrĩriai mũigue arĩa moorĩte na arĩa metharĩte makoima bũrũri wa Babuloni, makiumbũra marĩ kũu Zayuni ũrĩa Jehova Ngai witũ erĩhĩirie, akerĩhĩria nĩ ũndũ wa hekarũ yake.
29 “Ĩtai aikia a mĩguĩ mokĩrĩre Babuloni, o arĩa othe mageetaga ũta. Ambaai hema mũgũthiũrũrũkĩirie; mũtikareke mũndũ o na ũmwe warĩo oore. Rĩrĩhei kũringana na ciĩko ciarĩo; o ta ũrĩa rĩaneeka andũ angĩ-rĩ, rĩĩkei o ta guo. Nĩgũkorwo nĩrĩngʼathĩirie Jehova, o we Ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Isiraeli.
30 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, aanake aarĩo nĩmakaagũa njĩra-inĩ cia itũũra; thigari ciarĩo ciothe nĩigakirio ki mũthenya ũcio,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
31 “Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩngũũkĩrĩire, wee mwĩtĩĩi ũyũ, nĩgũkorwo mũthenya waku nĩmũkinyu, o rĩo ihinda rĩaku rĩa kũherithio,” ũguo nĩguo Mwathani, o we Jehova-Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, ekuuga.
32 “Mwĩtĩĩi ũcio nĩakahĩngwo agwe, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaamũũkĩria; nĩngagwatia matũũra makuo mwaki, naguo nĩũgaacina arĩa othe mamũrigiicĩirie, maniinwo biũ.”
33 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Andũ a Isiraeli nĩmahinyĩrĩirio, o ũndũ ũmwe na andũ a Juda. Arĩa othe maamatahire nĩmamarũmĩtie mũno, makarega kũmarekia mathiĩ.
34 No rĩrĩ, Mũkũũri wao arĩ na hinya; Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩrĩo rĩĩtwa rĩake. Nĩakamarũĩrĩra na kĩyo ciira-inĩ wao, nĩguo atũme bũrũri wao ũgĩe na ũhurũko, no aagithie arĩa matũũraga Babuloni ũhurũko.”
35 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Harĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora rwa gũũkĩrĩra andũ a Babuloni, rũũkĩrĩre arĩa matũũraga Babuloni, na rũũkĩrĩre anene na andũ arĩa ogĩ akuo!
36 Rũhiũ rwa njora rũgookĩrĩra anabii akuo a maheeni, nao matuĩke irimũ. Ningĩ rũhiũ rwa njora nĩrũgookĩrĩra njamba ciakuo iria irĩ hinya, nacio nĩikaiyũrwo nĩ kĩmako kĩnene.

38 Nĩgũkaara riũa rĩa kũhũithia maaĩ makuo! Namo nĩmakaahũa biũ. Nĩgũkorwo ũcio nĩ bũrũri ũiyũrĩte ngai cia mĩhianano, nao andũ akuo nĩmagũrũkĩtio nĩyo.
39 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nyamũ cia werũ-inĩ na hiti nĩcio igaatũũraga Babuloni, na kũu no kuo gũgaatũũrwo nĩ ndundu. Gũtigacooka gũtũũrwo nĩ andũ o na kana gũikarwo nĩ andũ, nginya njiarwa na njiarwa.
40 O ta ũrĩa Ngai aangʼaũranirie Sodomu, na Gomora, o hamwe na matũũra marĩa maariganĩtie namo-rĩ, ũguo noguo gũtarĩ mũndũ ũgaatũũra kuo; gũtirĩ mũndũ ũgaikara kuo,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
41 “Atĩrĩrĩ, mbũtũ ya ita nĩ ĩrooka yumĩte mwena wa gathigathini; rũrĩrĩ rũnene, na athamaki aingĩ nĩmarahũrĩtwo kuuma ituri-inĩ cia thĩ.
