Jeremia 43
1 Rĩrĩa Jeremia aarĩkirie kũhe andũ acio ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova Ngai wao, ũhoro ũrĩa wothe Jehova aamũtũmĩte akameere-rĩ,
And it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of Yahweh their God, with which Yahweh their God had sent him unto them, —even all these words,
2 Azaria mũrũ wa Hoshaia, na Johanani mũrũ wa Karea, marĩ hamwe na andũ othe arĩa etĩĩi, makĩĩra Jeremia atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩũraheenania! Jehova Ngai witũ ndagũtũmĩte ũũke ũtwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Mũtikanathiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri gũtũũra kuo.’
then spake Azariah son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the proud men, —saying unto Jeremiah—Falsely, art thou speaking, Yahweh our God hath not sent thee to say, Ye shall not enter Egypt to sojourn there;
3 No rĩrĩ, Baruku mũrũ wa Neria nĩwe ũkũringĩrĩirie ũtũũkĩrĩre, nĩguo tũneanwo kũrĩ andũ a Babuloni, nĩguo matũũrage, kana matũtahe, matũtware Babuloni.”
but Baruch son of Neriah, is goading thee on against us, —that he may deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, to put us to death, or take us away captive to Babylon.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Johanani mũrũ wa Karea marĩ hamwe na anene othe a mbũtũ cia ita, o na andũ othe, makĩrega gwathĩkĩra watho wa Jehova wa gũikara kũu bũrũri wa Juda.
So Johanan son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces and all the people, hearkened not, unto the voice of Yahweh, —by remaining in the land of Judah;
5 Handũ ha ũguo, Johanani mũrũ wa Karea hamwe na anene othe a mbũtũ cia ita magĩtongoria matigari mothe ma andũ a Juda, o acio macookete nĩguo maikare kũu bũrũri wa Juda moimĩte ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe kũrĩa mahurunjĩtwo.
but Johanan son of Kareah and all the captains of the forces took all the remnant of Judah, who had returned, out of all the nations whither they had been driven to sojourn in the land of Judah:
6 Ningĩ magĩtongoria arũme othe, na andũ-a-nja na ciana, o na airĩtu a mũthamaki acio Nebuzaradani mũnene wa arangĩri a mũthamaki aatigĩire Gedalia mũrũ wa Ahikamu, mũrũ wa Shafani, o na magĩtongoria Jeremia ũcio mũnabii, na Baruku mũrũ wa Neria.
both the men and the women and the children, and the daughters of the king, and every soul that Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners had left, with Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, —and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch son of Neriah;
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Misiri, makĩremera Jehova, na magĩthiĩ o nginya Tahapanahesi.
and entered the land of Egypt, for they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, —yea entered as far as Tahpanhes.
8 Na marĩ kũu Tahapanahesi, ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩgĩkinyĩra Jeremia, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jeremiah, in Tahpanhes, saying:
9 “Oya mahiga manene na guoko gwaku, Ayahudi makwĩroreire, ũthiĩ ũmathike na rĩũmba hau nja haarĩtwo maturubarĩ itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nyũmba ya Firaũni kũu Tahapanahesi.
Take in thy hand great stones and hide them in the mortar that is in the brickyard which is at the entrance of the house of Pharaoh in Tahpanhes, —before the eyes of the men of Judah.
10 Hĩndĩ ĩyo ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, ekuuga: Nĩngũtũmanĩra ndungata yakwa Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni, na nĩngahaanda gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũthamaki igũrũ rĩa mahiga maya ndathika haha; nĩakamba hema yake ya ũnene igũrũ rĩamo.
Then shalt thou say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel—Behold me! sending and fetching Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, my servant, and I will set his throne over these stones which I have hid, —and he shall spread his canopy over them.
11 Nĩagooka atharĩkĩre bũrũri wa Misiri, oragithie andũ arĩa maathĩrĩirio gũkua, na atũme arĩa maathĩrĩirio gũtahwo matahwo, nao arĩa maathĩrĩirio kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora mooragwo naruo.
And when he entereth, then will he smite the land of Egypt and deliver Him who is for death to death and Him who is for captivity to captivity, and Him who is for the sword to the sword.
12 Nĩagacina hekarũ cia ngai cia Misiri; agaacina hekarũ ciao na atahe ngai ciao. O ta ũrĩa mũrĩithi ehumbaga nguo yake, noguo akehumba bũrũri wa Misiri, acooke oime kuo atarĩ mũhutie.
So will I kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and he shall burn them and carry them away Captive, —and shall wrap the land of Egypt about him, just as a shepherd, wrappeth about, him his garment, and shall go forth from thence in peace;
13 Nĩakoinanga itugĩ iria ihooyagwo, iria irĩ thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya riũa kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na acooke acine hekarũ cia ngai cia bũrũri wa Misiri ithire.’”
And he shall break in pieces the pillars of Beth-shemesh, which is in the land of Egypt, —And the houses of the gods of Egypt, shall he burn with fire.
