Jeremiah 27
1 At the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD.
Ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀pẹ̀ ìṣèjọba Sedekiah ọmọ Josiah ọba Juda, ọ̀rọ̀ yìí tọ Jeremiah wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wí pé.
2 This is what the LORD said to me: “Make for yourself a yoke out of leather straps and put it on your neck.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Ṣe àjàgà àti ọ̀pá irin fún ara rẹ, kí o sì fiwé ọrùn rẹ.
3 Send word to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon through the envoys who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
Kí o rán ọ̀rọ̀ sí ọba ti Edomu, Moabu, Ammoni, Tire àti Sidoni láti ọwọ́ àwọn ikọ̀ tí ó wá sí Jerusalẹmu sọ́dọ̀ Sedekiah ọba Juda.
4 Give them a message from the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, to relay to their masters:
Kí o sì pàṣẹ fún wọn láti wí fún àwọn olúwa wọn pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: “Sọ èyí fún àwọn olúwa rẹ.
5 By My great power and outstretched arm, I made the earth and the men and beasts on the face of it, and I give it to whom I please.
Pẹ̀lú agbára ńlá mi àti ọwọ́ nínà mi ni Èmi dá ayé, ènìyàn àti ẹranko tí ó wà lórí ilẹ̀ ayé, mo sì fún ẹni tí ó wu ọkàn mi.
6 So now I have placed all these lands under the authority of My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. I have even made the beasts of the field subject to him.
Nísinsin yìí, Èmi yóò fa gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ fún Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli ìránṣẹ́ mi; Èmi yóò sì mú àwọn ẹranko búburú wọ̀n-ọn-nì jẹ́ tirẹ̀.
7 All nations will serve him and his son and grandson, until the time of his own land comes; then many nations and great kings will enslave him.
Gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ni yóò máa sìn ín àti àwọn ọmọdọ́mọ rẹ̀ títí ilẹ̀ rẹ yóò fi dé; ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè àti àwọn ọba ńlá ni yóò tẹríba fún.
8 As for the nation or kingdom that does not serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and does not place its neck under his yoke, I will punish that nation by sword and famine and plague, declares the LORD, until I have destroyed it by his hand.
“‘“Ṣùgbọ́n tí orílẹ̀-èdè tàbí ìjọba kan kò bá ní sin Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli, tàbí kí ó tẹ orí rẹ̀ ba ní abẹ́ àjàgà rẹ̀, Èmi yóò fi ìyà jẹ orílẹ̀-èdè náà nípa idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn, ni Olúwa wí títí Èmi yóò fi run wọ́n nípa ọwọ́ rẹ̀.
9 But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your interpreters of dreams, your mediums, or your sorcerers who declare, ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon.’
Nítorí náà, ẹ má ṣe tẹ́tí sílẹ̀ sí àwọn wòlíì yín, àwọn aláfọ̀ṣẹ yín, àwọn tí ń rọ́ àlá fún un yín, àwọn oṣó yín, tàbí àwọn àjẹ́ yín tí wọ́n ń sọ fún un yín pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kò ní sin ọba Babeli.’
10 For they prophesy to you a lie that will serve to remove you from your land; I will banish you and you will perish.
Wọ́n ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ irọ́ fún un yín èyí tí yóò mú u yín jìnnà réré kúrò ní ilẹ̀ yín; kí Èmi kí ó lè lé yín jáde, kí ẹ̀yin ó sì ṣègbé.
11 But the nation that will put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will leave in its own land, to cultivate it and reside in it, declares the LORD.”
Ṣùgbọ́n bí orílẹ̀-èdè kankan bá tẹ orí rẹ̀ ba lábẹ́ àjàgà ọba Babeli, tí ó sì sìn ín, Èmi yóò jẹ́ kí orílẹ̀-èdè náà wà lórí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ láti máa ro ó, àti láti máa gbé ibẹ̀ ni Olúwa wí.”’”
12 And to Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke the same message: “Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon; serve him and his people, and live!
Èmi sì sọ ọ̀rọ̀ náà fún Sedekiah ọba Juda wí pé: “Tẹ orí rẹ ba lábẹ́ àjàgà ọba Babeli, sìn ín ìwọ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, ìwọ yóò sì yè.
13 Why should you and your people die by sword and famine and plague, as the LORD has decreed against any nation that does not serve the king of Babylon?
Kí ló dé tí ìwọ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ yóò ṣe kú nípa idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn, èyí tí Olúwa fi ń halẹ̀ mọ́ àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí kò bá sin ọba Babeli?
14 Do not listen to the words of the prophets who say, ‘You must not serve the king of Babylon,’ for they are prophesying to you a lie.
Ẹ má ṣe fetísílẹ̀ sí ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn wòlíì tí ó ń sọ wí pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kò ní sin ọba Babeli,’ nítorí pé àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ èké ni wọ́n ń sọ fún un yín.
15 For I have not sent them, declares the LORD, and yet they are prophesying falsely in My name; therefore I will banish you, and you will perish—you and the prophets who prophesy to you.”
‘Èmi kò rán wọn ni Olúwa wí. Wọ́n ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ èké ní orúkọ mi. Nítorí náà, Èmi yóò lé wọn, wọn yóò sì ṣègbé, ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú àwọn wòlíì tí ó ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ fún un yín.’”
16 Then I said to the priests and to all this people, “This is what the LORD says: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, ‘Look, very soon now the articles from the house of the LORD will be brought back from Babylon.’ They are prophesying to you a lie.
Nígbà náà ni mo sọ fún àwọn àlùfáà àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ, ẹ má ṣe fetí sí nǹkan tí àwọn wòlíì ń sọ pé, ‘Láìpẹ́ ohun èlò ilé Olúwa ni a ó kó padà láti Babeli,’ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ èké ni wọ́n ń sọ. Ẹ má tẹ́tí sí wọn.
17 Do not listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon and live! Why should this city become a ruin?
Má ṣe tẹ́tí sí wọn, ẹ máa sin ọba Babeli, ẹ̀yin yóò sì yè. Èéṣe tí ìlú yóò fi di ahoro?
18 If they are indeed prophets and the word of the LORD is with them, let them now plead with the LORD of Hosts that the articles remaining in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, not be taken to Babylon.
Tí wọ́n bá jẹ́ wòlíì, tí wọ́n sì ní ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, jẹ́ kí wọ́n bẹ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun kí a má ṣe kó ohun èlò tí ó kù ní ilé Olúwa àti ní ààfin ọba Juda àti Jerusalẹmu lọ sí Babeli.
19 For this is what the LORD of Hosts says about the pillars, the sea, the bases, and the rest of the articles that remain in this city,
Nítorí pé, èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ nípa àwọn opó, omi Òkun ní ti ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àti ní ti ohun èlò ìyókù tí ó kù ní ìlú náà.
20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take when he carried Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon, along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
Èyí tí Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli kò kó lọ nígbà tí ó mú Jekoniah ọmọ Jehoiakimu ọba Juda lọ sí ìgbèkùn láti Jerusalẹmu lọ sí Babeli, pẹ̀lú àwọn ọlọ́lá Juda àti Jerusalẹmu.
21 Yes, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says about the articles that remain in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:
Lóòótọ́, èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí nípa àwọn ohun ìṣúra tí ó ṣẹ́kù ní ilé Olúwa àti ní ààfin ọba Juda àti ní Jerusalẹmu:
22 ‘They will be carried to Babylon and will remain there until the day I attend to them again,’ declares the LORD. ‘Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place.’”
‘A ó mú wọn lọ sí ilẹ̀ Babeli, ní ibẹ̀ ni wọn ó sì wà títí di ìgbà tí mo bá padà,’ èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa. ‘Lẹ́yìn èyí, Èmi yóò mú wọn padà, Èmi yóò sì ṣe wọ́n lọ́jọ̀ ní ibí yìí.’”
