Jeremia 6
1 “Mwĩtharei mwĩhonokie, inyuĩ andũ a Benjamini! Mwĩtharei muume Jerusalemu! Huhai karumbeta mũrĩ kũu Tekoa! Ĩkĩrai kĩmenyithia kũu Bethi-Hakeremu! Nĩgũkorwo ũũru nĩũũkĩte uumĩte na mwena wa gathigathini, na nĩ ũũru wa kũniinanwo kũnene mũno.
Flee for refuge - O people of Benjamin from [the] midst of Jerusalem and in Tekoa blow a trumpet and at Beth Hakkerem raise a signal for calamity it has looked down from [the] north and destruction great.
2 Nĩngananga Mwarĩ wa Zayuni, o ũcio mũthaka na mwĩbacĩrĩri mũno.
The beautiful [one] and the dainty [one] I resemble [the] daughter of Zion.
3 Arĩithi marĩ na ndũũru ciao cia mbũri nĩmagooka nĩguo mamũũkĩrĩre; nĩmakaamba hema ciao imũthiũrũrũkĩirie mĩena yothe, o mũndũ o mũndũ akarangĩra handũ hake.”
To it they will come shepherds and flocks their they will pitch at it tents all around they will graze everyone hand his.
4 “Mwĩhaarĩriei tũrũe nake! Arahũkai, rekei tũmũtharĩkĩre mĩaraho! No rĩrĩ, wũi-ĩiya-ĩ! Nĩkũratuka, nacio ciĩruru cia hwaĩ-inĩ nĩiraraiha.
Consecrate on it battle arise so we may go up at noon woe! to us for it has turned the day for they are stretched out [the] shadows of evening.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, arahũkai, tũtharĩkĩre kũrĩ ũtukũ, tũharaganie ciĩgitio ciake iria nũmu!”
Arise so we may go up in the night and let us destroy fortresses its.
6 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Temai mĩtĩ mũmĩige ihũba nene ingʼetheire Jerusalemu. Itũũra rĩrĩ inene no nginya rĩherithio; nĩ ũndũ rĩiyũrĩte ũhoro wa kũhinyanĩrĩria.
For thus he says Yahweh of hosts cut down wood and pour out on Jerusalem a mound that city it will be visited all of it [is] oppression in midst its.
7 O ta ũrĩa gĩthima gĩtherũkaga maaĩ-rĩ, ũguo noguo itũũra rĩu rĩtherũkaga waganu. Maũndũ ma ũhinya na wanangi no mo maiguagwo kuo; ndwari ciakuo na nguraro nĩcio ndũũraga nyonaga.
As keeps cool (a well *Q(K)*) water its so it has kept cool evil its violence and havoc it is heard in it [are] on face my continually sickness and wound[s].
8 Atĩrĩrĩ, wee Jerusalemu, ĩtĩkĩra gũtaarwo, kwaga ũguo nĩngũkũhutatĩra na ndũme bũrũri waku ũkire ihooru, nginya kwage mũndũ ũngĩtũũra kuo.”
Let yourself be instructed O Jerusalem lest it should be alienated self my from you lest I should make you a desolation a land [which] not it is inhabited.
9 Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga: “Atĩrĩrĩ, andũ nĩmarekwo mahaare matigari ma Isiraeli mahinyĩtie, o ta ũrĩa mũthabibũ ũhaaragwo; cookerithia guoko honge-inĩ rĩngĩ, o ta ũrĩa mũcookereria wa thabibũ ekaga.”
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts thoroughly people will glean like vine [the] remnant of Israel return hand your like a grape gatherer over branches.
10 Nũũ ingĩkĩarĩria ndĩmũkaanie na anjigue? Nũũ ũngĩĩthikĩrĩria? Matũ mao nĩmahinge, nĩ ũndũ ũcio matiingĩigua. Ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova nĩĩmahĩtagĩria, na matingĩmĩkenera.
To whom? will I speak and will I warn? and they may listen there! [is] uncircumcised ear their and not they are able to pay attention there! [the] word of Yahweh it has become for them a reproach not they delight in it.
11 No rĩrĩ, niĩ njiyũrĩtwo nĩ mangʼũrĩ ma Jehova, ndingĩhota kũmahingĩrĩria. “Maitĩrĩrie ciana iria irĩ barabara-inĩ, na ũmaitĩrĩrie aanake arĩa monganĩte hamwe; mũthuuri na mũtumia wake, maitĩkĩrwo nĩmo, o ũndũ ũmwe na andũ arĩa akũrũ, arĩa maingĩhĩtie mĩaka.
And [the] rage of Yahweh - I am full I am weary to hold [it] in pour [it] out on child[ren] in the street and on [the] gathering of young men alike for also a husband with a wife they will be caught [the] old with [the] full of days.
12 Nyũmba ciao igaatuĩka cia andũ angĩ, o hamwe na mĩgũnda yao na atumia ao, rĩrĩa ngaatambũrũkia guoko gwakwa njũkĩrĩre andũ arĩa matũũraga bũrũri ũcio,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And they will be turned over houses their to others fields and wives alike for I will stretch out hand my on [the] inhabitants of the land [the] utterance of Yahweh.
13 “Kuuma ũrĩa mũnini nginya ũrĩa mũnene, othe nĩmakoroketio nĩ kwenda kwĩguna; anabii o hamwe na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, othe nĩmaheenanagia.
That from little their and unto great their all of it [is] gaining unjust gain and from prophet and unto priest all of him [is] doing falsehood.
14 Mohaga kĩronda kĩa andũ akwa taarĩ kĩronda kĩa andũ matagurarĩtio mũno, makĩmeeraga atĩrĩ: ‘Gwĩ thayũ, gwĩ thayũ,’ o rĩrĩa gũtarĩ thayũ.
And they have healed [the] fracture of people my on a trifling [thing] saying peace - peace and there not [is] peace.
15 Hihi nĩmaconokaga nĩ mũtugo ũcio wao ũrĩ magigi? Aca, maticonokaga o na hanini; o na matirĩ rũkobe. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o nao makaagũanĩra na arĩa makaagũa; nĩmakarũndwo rĩrĩa ngaamaherithia,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Are they ashamed? that an abomination they have done neither at all not they are ashamed nor to exhibit shame not they know therefore they will fall among [those who] fall at [the] time [when] I have visited them they will stumble he says Yahweh.
16 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Rũgamai magomano-inĩ ma njĩra, mũtuĩrie ũhoro; ũrĩrĩriai njĩra iria ciageragwo tene, mũũrie harĩa njĩra ĩrĩa njega ĩrĩ, nĩguo mũmĩgerere, nacio ngoro cianyu nĩikahurũka. No inyuĩ mũkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ithuĩ tũtikũmĩgerera.’
Thus he says Yahweh stand at [the] roads and look and ask - of paths of ancient time where? this [is] [the] way of the good and walk in it and find rest for self your and they said not we will walk.
17 Nĩndaigire arangĩri nĩguo mamũrangĩre, ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ta thikĩrĩriai karumbeta!’ No inyuĩ mũkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ithuĩ tũtigũthikĩrĩria.’
And I raised up over you watchmen pay attention to [the] sound of a trumpet and they said not we will pay attention.
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, thikĩrĩriai inyuĩ ndũrĩrĩ; rorai wega inyuĩ aira, nĩguo mũmenye ũrĩa gũgekĩka kũrĩ andũ akwa.
Therefore listen O nations and know O congregation [that] which [is] in them.
19 Ta thikĩrĩria, wee thĩ: nĩngũrehere andũ aya mwanangĩko, ũrĩ maciaro ma maũndũ marĩa mathugundaga, tondũ nĩmagĩte gũthikĩrĩria ndũmĩrĩri yakwa, na nĩmaregete watho wakwa.
Hear O earth here! I [am] about to bring calamity to the people this [the] fruit of own schemes their for on words my not they have paid attention and law my and they have rejected it.
20 Ngĩrĩ na bata ũrĩkũ na ũbumba ũcio wa kuuma Sheba, kana igwa cia mũrĩo cia kuuma bũrũri wa kũraya? Maruta manyu ma njino matingĩĩtĩkĩrĩka; magongona manyu matingenagia.”
Why? this to me frankincense [which] from Sheba it comes and [the] cane good from a land of distance burnt offerings your not [are] for acceptance and sacrifices your not they are pleasing to me.
21 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Nĩngwĩkĩra mĩhĩnga mbere ya andũ aya. Maithe na ariũ ao nĩmakahĩngagwo nĩyo; andũ a itũũra hamwe na arata ao nĩmagakua.”
Therefore thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to give to the people this stumbling blocks and they will stumble over them fathers and sons alike a neighbor and friend his (and they will perish. *Q(K)*)
22 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Ta rorai muone, nĩ harĩ na ita rĩroka riumĩte bũrũri wa mwena wa gathigathini; rũrĩrĩ rũnene nĩ rwarahũrĩtwo kuuma ituri-inĩ cia thĩ.
Thus he says Yahweh there! a people [is] about to come from a land of [the] north and a nation great it will be roused from [the] remotest parts of [the] earth.
23 Manyiitĩte mĩguĩ na matimũ; nĩ andũ ooru matarĩ tha. Mũrurumo wao magĩũka mahaicĩte mbarathi, nĩ ta wa ndiihũ cia iria rĩrĩa inene; maroka mehaarĩirie ta andũ moka mbaara nĩguo magũtharĩkĩre, wee Mwarĩ wa Zayuni.”
Bow and javelin they take hold of [is] cruel it and not they have mercy sound their [is] like the sea [which] it roars and on horses they ride arranged like a man for battle on you O daughter of Zion.
24 Nĩtũiguĩte ũhoro wa andũ acio, namo moko maitũ nĩmorĩtwo nĩ hinya. Nĩtũnyiitĩtwo nĩ ruo rũnene, ruo rũhaana ta rwa mũtumia ũkũrũmwo.
We heard [the] report of it they hung limp hands our distress it took hold of us anguish like [woman] giving birth.
25 Mũtikoimagare mũthiĩ mĩgũnda, kana mũthiĩ na njĩra, nĩ ũndũ thũ ĩyo ĩrĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, na kũrĩ na imakania irigiicĩirie mĩena yothe.
May not (you go out *Q(K)*) the field and on the road mau not (you walk *Q(K)*) for a sword [belongs] to [the] enemy terror [is] from round about.
26 Inyuĩ andũ akwa, mwĩhumbei nguo ya ikũnia, na mwĩgaragarie mũhu-inĩ; rĩrai na kĩgi, ta ũrĩa mwana wa mũmwe arĩragĩrwo, nĩgũkorwo mwanangi ũcio agaatũhithũkĩra o rĩmwe.
O daughter of people my gird yourself sackcloth and roll in ash[es] [the] mourning of an only [child] observe for yourself wailing of bitterness for suddenly it will come the destroyer on us.
27 “Wee nawe nĩngũtuĩte mũgeria wa cuuma, nao andũ akwa matariĩ ta kĩgera, nĩguo wee ũrorage na ũthimage mĩthiĩre yao.
An assayer I have made you among people my fortification so you may observe and you will test conduct their.
28 Nĩ aremi momĩtie ngoro, mathiiaga magĩcambanagia. Mahaana o ta gĩcango na kĩgera; othe mekaga maũndũ mathũku mũno.
All of them [are those who] turn aside of rebels [those who] go about of slander bronze and iron all of them [are] destroyers they.
29 Ihuruti nĩirahurutĩra mwaki na hinya nĩguo ũcine ngocorai, no rĩrĩ, wĩra ũcio ũrarutwo wa kũmatheria no wa tũhũ; arĩa aaganu matirathera.
It puffs [the] bellow[s] (from a fire it is complete *Q(K)*) lead for vanity someone has refined steadfastly and evil [people] not they have been separated.
30 Andũ acio marĩĩtagwo betha-ĩrĩa-ĩregetwo, nĩ ũndũ Jehova nĩamaregeete.”
Silver rejected people called them for he has rejected Yahweh them.
