Jeremiah 47
1 The LORD’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck Gaza.
Ma e wach mar Jehova Nyasaye mane obirone janabi Jeremia kuom jo-Filistia kapok Farao nomonjo Gaza:
2 The LORD says: “Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and will become an overflowing stream, and will overflow the land and all that is therein, the city and those who dwell therein. The men will cry, and all the inhabitants of the land will wail.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Neuru kaka pige gingore e yo nyandwat; ginibed ataro mopongʼ. Giniyieny e piny kod gimoro amora manie iye, mier gi jok modak eigi. Ji noywagi; jogo duto modak e piny nodengi.
3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers do not look back for their children because their hands are so feeble,
Ka giwinjo koko mar tiend farese ma giro, kod koko mar geche wasigu to gi moor tiend gechegi. Wuone ok nokony nyithindgi; lwetgi kalandhidhi nomaki.
4 because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains; for the LORD will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
Nimar odiechiengʼ osechopo mondo otiek jo-Filistia duto, kendo gengʼo joma notony duto mane nyalo konyo Turo kod Sidon. Jehova Nyasaye ochiegni tieko jo-Filistia, jogo mane otony moa e dho nam mar Kaftor.
5 Baldness has come on Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nothing. You remnant of their valley, how long will you cut yourself?
Jo-Gaza noliel wigi manyiso ni gin gi kuyo; kendo jo-Ashkelon noket malingʼ thii. Yaye un joma otony manie pewe, unungʼadru nyaka kara angʼo?
6 “‘You sword of the LORD, how long will it be before you are quiet? Put yourself back into your scabbard; rest, and be still.’
“Uywak ni, ‘Yaye ligangla mar Jehova Nyasaye, ibiro yweyo nyaka karangʼo? Dog ei olaloni; chungʼ kendo ilingʼ thi.’
7 “How can you be quiet, since the LORD has given you a command? Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore, there he has appointed it.”
To ere kaka onyalo yweyo ka Jehova Nyasaye owuon osechiko, ka osechiwo chik mondo omonj Ashkelon to gi dho nam?”
