< Jeremiah 5 >

1 Cumpasse ye the weies of Jerusalem, and loke, and biholde ye, and seke ye in the stretis therof, whether ye fynden a man doynge doom, and sekynge feith; and Y schal be merciful to hem.
“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.
2 That if also thei seien, The Lord lyueth, yhe, thei schulen swere this falsli.
O na gũtuĩka nĩmehĩtaga makoigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo,’ kwĩhĩta kwao no kwa maheeni.”
3 Lord, thin iyen biholden feith; thou hast smyte hem, and thei maden not sorewe; thou hast al tobroke hem, and thei forsoken to take chastisyng; thei maden her faces hardere than a stoon, and nolden turne ayen.
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.
4 Forsothe Y seide, In hap thei ben pore men, and foolis, that knowen not the weie of the Lord, and the doom of her God.
Ngĩĩciiria atĩrĩ: “Aya nĩ andũ athĩĩni; nĩ andũ akĩĩgu, nĩgũkorwo matiũĩ njĩra ya Jehova, kana makamenya ũrĩa Ngai wao endaga.
5 Therfor Y schal go to the principal men, and Y schal speke to hem; for thei knewen the weie of the Lord, and the doom of her God. And lo! thei han more broke togidere the yok, and han broke boondis.
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.
6 Therfor a lioun of the wode smoot hem; a wolf at euentid wastide hem, a parde wakynge on the citees of hem. Ech man that goith out of hem, schal be takun; for the trespassyngis of hem ben multiplied, the turnyngis awei of hem ben coumfortid.
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.
7 On what thing mai Y be merciful to thee? Thi sones han forsake me, and sweren bi hem that ben not goddis. Y fillide hem, and thei diden auowtrie, and in the hous of an hoore thei diden letcherie.
“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.
8 Thei ben maad horsis, and stalouns, louyeris to wymmen; ech man neiyede to the wijf of his neiybore.
Mahũũnĩte magatuĩka ta mbarathi cia njamba cikĩĩrirĩria cia mĩgoma, o ũmwe wao akeriragĩria mũtumia wa mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ.
9 Whether Y schal not visite on these thingis, seith the Lord, and schal not my soule take veniaunce in siche a folk?
Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmaherithia nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ macio?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩ kwĩrĩhĩria harĩ rũrĩrĩ ta rũu?
10 Stye ye on the wallis therof, and distrie ye; but nyle ye make an endyng. Do ye awei the siouns therof, for thei ben not seruauntis of the Lord.
“Tuĩkanĩriai mĩgũnda yao ya mĩthabibũ mũmĩharaganie, no mũtikamĩanange biũ. Hũrũrai honge ciayo, nĩgũkorwo andũ aya ti a Jehova.
11 For whi the hous of Israel and the hous of Juda hath trespassid bi trespassyng ayens me, seith the Lord;
Andũ a nyũmba ya Isiraeli na andũ a nyũmba ya Juda nĩmagĩte wĩhokeku harĩ niĩ biũ,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
12 thei denyeden the Lord, and seiden, He is not, nether yuel schal come on vs; we schulen not se swerd and hungur.
Nĩmaheenanĩtie ũhoro wĩgiĩ Jehova; moigĩte atĩrĩ, “Ndarĩ ũndũ egwĩka! Gũtirĩ ũũru tũkuona; tũtikoona tũtharĩkĩirwo na rũhiũ rwa njora kana tuone ngʼaragu.
13 The profetis spaken ayens the wynd, and noon answer was in hem; therfor these thingis schulen come to hem.
Anabii nĩ a tũhũ ta rũhuho, nakĩo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩtirĩ thĩinĩ wao; nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, ũguo moigĩte nĩguo mageekwo.”
14 The Lord God of oostis seith these thingis, For ye spaken this word, lo! Y yyue my wordis in thi mouth in to fier, and this puple in to trees, and it schal deuoure hem.
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.
15 Lo! thou hous of Israel, seith the Lord, Y schal brynge on you a folk fro fer; a strong folk, an eeld folk, `a folk whos langage thou schalt not knowe, nether schalt vndurstonde what it spekith.
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.
16 The arowe caas therof is as an opyn sepulcre; alle ben stronge men.
Mathiaka ma mĩguĩ yao matariĩ ta mbĩrĩra iria ĩtathikĩtwo; othe nĩ njamba irĩ hinya.
17 And it schal ete thi cornes, and it schal deuoure thi breed, thi sones and thi douytris; it schal ete thi flok, and thi droues, it schal ete also thi vyner, and thi fige tre; and it schal al to-breke thi stronge citees bi swerd, in whiche thou hast trist.
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.
18 Netheles in tho daies, seith the Lord, Y schal not make you in to endyng.
“No rĩrĩ, o na matukũ-inĩ macio, ndigakwananga ngũniine biũ,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
19 That if ye seien, Whi hath oure Lord God do alle these thingis to vs? thou schalt seie to hem, As ye forsoken me, and serueden an alien god in youre lond, so ye schulen serue alien goddis in a lond not youre.
“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.’
20 Telle ye this to the hous of Jacob, and make ye herd in Juda, and seie ye,
“Anĩrĩra ũhoro ũyũ kũrĩ andũ a nyũmba ya Jakubu, na ũũhunjie kũu Juda, uuge atĩrĩ:
21 Here, thou fonned puple, that hast noon herte; whiche han iyen, and seen not, and eeris, and heren not.
Ta thikĩrĩriai inyuĩ andũ aya akĩĩgu na mũtarĩ mbuguĩro, o inyuĩ mũrĩ na maitho na mũtionaga, na mũrĩ na matũ na mũtiiguaga:
22 Therfor schulen not ye drede me, seith the Lord, and schulen not ye make sorewe for my face? Whiche haue set grauel a terme, ether ende, to the see, an euerlastynge comaundement, whiche it schal not passe; and the wawis therof schulen be mouyd, and schulen not haue power; and schulen wexe greet, and schulen not passe it.
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.
23 Forsothe an herte vnbileueful and terrynge to wraththe is maad to this puple; thei departiden,
No andũ aya-rĩ, marĩ ngoro cia rũngʼathio na nemi; nĩmahĩtĩtie njĩra na makoora.
24 and yeden awei, and thei seiden not in her herte, Drede we oure Lord God, that yiueth to vs reyn tymeful, and lateful in his tyme; that kepith to vs the plente of heruest of the yeer.
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.’
25 Youre wickidnessis diden awei these thingis, and youre synnes forbediden good fro you.
Mahĩtia manyu nĩmo matũmĩte mũraihĩrĩrio nĩ maũndũ macio; mehia manyu matũmĩte mwage maũndũ marĩa mega.
26 For ther ben foundun in my puple wickid men, settynge tresoun, as fouleres settynge snaris and trappis, to take men.
“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.
27 As a net, ether a trap, ful of briddis, so the housis of hem ben ful of gile. Therfor thei ben magnefied,
O ta ũrĩa gĩkerenge kĩiyũraga nyoni, ũguo nĩguo nyũmba ciao ciyũrĩte ũheenania; matongete na makagĩa na hinya,
28 and maad riche, maad fat with ynne, and maad fat with outforth, and thei passiden worst my wordis; thei demyden not a cause of a widewe, thei dressiden not the cause of a fadirles child, and thei demyden not the doom of pore men.

29 Whether Y schal not visite on these thingis, seith the Lord, ether schal not my soule take veniaunce on sich a folk?
Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩkũmaherithia nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ macio?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Githĩ ndikĩagĩrĩirwo nĩ kwĩrĩhĩria harĩ rũrĩrĩ ta rũrũ?
30 Wondur and merueilouse thingis ben maad in the lond;
“Ũndũ mũũru mũno na wa kũmakania nĩwĩkĩkĩte bũrũri-inĩ ũyũ:

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?
