< Jeremiah 32 >

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah: that year was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar.
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tó tọ Jeremiah wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa ní ọdún kẹwàá Sedekiah ọba Juda, èyí tí ó jẹ́ ọdún kejìdínlógún ti Nebukadnessari.
2 And the king of Babylon's army was then besieging Jerusalem; and the prophet Jeremiah was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the king of Judah's house.
Àwọn ogun ọba Babeli ìgbà náà há Jerusalẹmu mọ́. A sì sé wòlíì Jeremiah mọ́ inú túbú tí wọ́n ń ṣọ́ ní àgbàlá ilé ọba Juda.
3 For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Why dost thou prophesy and say, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it;
Nítorí Sedekiah ọba Juda ti há a mọ́lé síbẹ̀; pé, “Kí ló dé tí ìwọ fi ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀? Tí o sì wí pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: Èmi ń bọ̀ wá fi ìlú yìí fún ọba Babeli, tí yóò sì gbà á.
4 and Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans; for he shall certainly be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes;
Sedekiah ọba Juda kò lè bọ́ lọ́wọ́ àwọn Kaldea, ṣùgbọ́n à ó mú fún ọba Babeli, yóò sì bá sọ̀rọ̀ ní ojúkojú; yóò sì rí pẹ̀lú ojú rẹ̀.
5 and he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith Jehovah: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper?
Yóò mú Sedekiah lọ sí Babeli tí yóò wà títí èmi yóò fi bẹ̀ ọ́ wò ni Olúwa wí. Tí ẹ̀yin bá bá àwọn ará Kaldea jà, ẹ̀yin kì yóò borí wọn.’”
6 And Jeremiah said, The word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Jeremiah wí pé, “Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
7 Behold, Hanameel, the son of Shallum thine uncle, shall come unto thee, saying, Buy for thyself my field which is in Anathoth; for thine is the right of redemption, to buy [it].
Hanameli ọmọkùnrin Ṣallumu ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀ yóò tọ̀ ọ́ wá pé, ‘Ra pápá mi tí ó wà ní Anatoti; nítorí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹni tó súnmọ́ wọn, ẹ̀tọ́ àti ìṣe rẹ ní láti rà á.’
8 And Hanameel, mine uncle's son, came to me in the court of the guard according to the word of Jehovah, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine: buy [it] for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of Jehovah.
“Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ, Hanameli ọmọ ẹ̀gbọ́n mi tọ̀ mí wá ní àgbàlá túbú wí pé, ‘Ra pápá mi tí ó wà ní Anatoti tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ Benjamini, èyí tí ó jẹ́ pé ẹ̀tọ́ rẹ ni láti gbà á àti láti ni, rà á fún ara rẹ.’ “Nígbà náà ni èmi mọ̀ wí pé ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ni èyí.
9 And I bought of Hanameel, mine uncle's son, the field which is in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, seventeen shekels of silver.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni; èmi ra pápá náà ní Anatoti láti ọwọ́ Hanameli ọmọ ẹ̀gbọ́n mi. Mo sì wọn ìwọ̀n ṣékélì àti fàdákà mẹ́tàdínlógún fún un.
10 And I subscribed the writing, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed the money in the balances.
Mo fọwọ́ sínú ìwé, mo sì dì í pa. Mo pe ẹlẹ́rìí sí i, mo sì wọn fàdákà náà lórí òsùwọ̀n.
11 And I took the writing of the purchase, that which was sealed [according to] the law and the statutes, and that which was open;
Mo mú ìwé tí mo fi rà á, èyí tí a di pa nípa àṣẹ àti òfin wa, àti èyí tí a kò lẹ̀.
12 and I gave the writing of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Nerijah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle's [son], and in the presence of the witnesses that had subscribed the writing of purchase, before all the Jews that were sitting in the court of the guard.
Èmi sì fi èyí fún Baruku, ọmọ Neriah, ọmọ Maseiah, ní ojú Hanameli, ọmọ ẹ̀gbọ́n mi àti níwájú àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí tí ó ti fi ọwọ́ sí ìwé àti ní ojú àwọn Júù gbogbo tí wọ́n jókòó ní àgbàlá ilé túbú.
13 And I charged Baruch in their presence, saying,
“Ní ojú wọn ni èmi ti pàṣẹ fún Baruku pé,
14 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Take these writings, this writing of the purchase, both that which is sealed and this writing which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may remain many days.
èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí; mú àwọn ìwé tí a fi rà á wọ̀nyí, àti èyí tí a lẹ̀ àti èyí tí a kò lẹ̀, kí o wá gbé wọn sínú ìkòkò amọ̀, kí wọn ó lè wà ní ọjọ́ púpọ̀.
15 For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards shall again be purchased in this land.
Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí; àwọn ilẹ̀, pápá àti ọgbà àjàrà ni à ó tún rà padà nílẹ̀ yìí.
16 And after I had given the writing of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Nerijah, I prayed unto Jehovah saying,
“Lẹ́yìn tí mo ti fi ìwé rírà náà fún Baruku ọmọkùnrin Neriah, mo gbàdúrà sí Olúwa wí pé:
17 Alas, Lord Jehovah! Behold, thou hast made the heavens and the earth by thy great power and stretched-out arm; there is nothing too hard for thee:
“Háà! Olúwa Olódùmarè, ìwọ tí o dá ọ̀run àti ayé pẹ̀lú títóbi agbára rẹ àti gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ apá rẹ. Kò sí ohun tí ó ṣòro fún ọ láti ṣe.
18 who shewest mercy unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them, thou, the great, the mighty God, — Jehovah of hosts is his name;
O fi ìfẹ́ hàn sí ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún àwọn ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n o gbé ìyà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn baba lé àwọn ọmọ lẹ́yìn wọn. Ọlọ́run títóbi àti alágbára, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ.
19 great in counsel and mighty in work, whose eyes are open upon all the ways of the children of men, to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:
Títóbi ni ìgbìmọ̀, àti alágbára ní í ṣe, ojú rẹ̀ ṣì sí gbogbo ọ̀nà àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn; láti fi fún olúkúlùkù gẹ́gẹ́ ọ̀nà rẹ̀ àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí èso iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
20 who hast displayed signs and wonders unto this day, in the land of Egypt and in Israel and among [other] men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day.
O ṣe iṣẹ́ àmì àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu ńlá ní Ejibiti. O sì ń ṣe é títí di òní ní Israẹli àti lára ọmọ ènìyàn tí ó sì ti gba òkìkí tí ó jẹ́ tìrẹ.
21 And thou broughtest forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt by signs, and by wonders, and by a powerful hand, and by a stretched-out arm, and by great terror;
O kó àwọn Israẹli ènìyàn rẹ jáde láti Ejibiti pẹ̀lú iṣẹ́ àmì àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu nínú ọwọ́ agbára àti nína apá rẹ pẹ̀lú ẹ̀rù ńlá.
22 and didst give them this land, which thou hadst sworn unto their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Ìwọ fún wọn nílẹ̀ yìí, èyí tí o ti ṣèlérí fún àwọn baba ńlá wọn; ilẹ̀ tí ó ń sàn fún wàrà àti oyin.
23 And they came in and possessed it: but they hearkened not unto thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do; so that thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them.
Wọ́n wá, wọ́n sì gba ilẹ̀ náà ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ tàbí tẹ̀lé òfin rẹ. Wọn kò ṣe ohun tí o pàṣẹ fún wọn, nítorí náà ìwọ mú àwọn ibi yìí wá sórí wọn.
24 Behold the mounds, they are come unto the city for taking it; and the city is given over into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, by the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and behold, thou seest [it].
“Wò ó, bí àwọn ìdọ̀tí ṣe kórajọ láti gba ìlú. Nítorí idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn, sì fi ìlú lé ọwọ́ àwọn ará Kaldea tí ń gbóguntì wọ́n. Ohun tí ìwọ sọ ṣẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ṣe rí i.
25 And thou, Lord Jehovah, thou hast said unto me, Buy for thyself the field for money, and take witnesses; — and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Síbẹ̀ a ó fi ìlú náà fún àwọn ará Babeli, ìwọ Olúwa Olódùmarè sọ fún mi pé, ‘Ra pápá náà pẹ̀lú owó fàdákà, kí o sì pe ẹlẹ́rìí.’”
26 And the word of Jehovah came unto Jeremiah, saying,
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá pé:
27 Behold, I am Jehovah, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me?
“Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run gbogbo ẹran-ara. Ǹjẹ́ ohun kan ha a ṣòro fún mi bí?
28 Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, and he shall take it.
Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa wí, Èmi ṣetán láti fi ìlú yìí fún àwọn ará Kaldea àti fún Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli ẹni tí yóò kó o.
29 And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come in and set fire to this city, and shall burn it, and the houses upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink-offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.
Àwọn ará Kaldea tí ó ń gbógun tí ìlú yóò wọ ìlú. Wọn ó sì fi iná sí ìlú; wọn ó jó o palẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ilé tí àwọn ènìyàn ti ń mú mi bínú, tí wọ́n ń rú ẹbọ tùràrí lórí pẹpẹ fún Baali tiwọn sì ń da ẹbọ ohun mímu fún àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn.
30 For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have been doing only evil in my sight from their youth; for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith Jehovah.
“Àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli àti Juda kò ṣe ohun kankan bí kò ṣe ibi lójú mi láti ìgbà èwe wọn. Nítorí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti fi kìkì iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọ́n mú mi bínú ni Olúwa wí.
31 For this city hath been to me [a provocation] of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,
Láti ọjọ́ tí wọ́n ti kọ́ ọ, títí di àkókò yìí ni ìlú yìí ti jẹ́ ohun ìbínú àti ìyọnu fún mi tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí èmi yóò fà á tu kúrò níwájú mi.
32 because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli àti àwọn ènìyàn Juda ti mú mi bínú pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìbàjẹ́ tí wọ́n ṣe. Àwọn Israẹli, ọba wọn àti gbogbo ìjòyè, àlùfáà àti wòlíì, àwọn ọkùnrin Juda àti àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu.
33 And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face; and though I taught them, rising early and teaching, they hearkened not to receive instruction.
Wọ́n kọ ẹ̀yìn sí mi, wọ́n sì yí ojú wọn padà. Èmi kọ wọ́n, síbẹ̀ wọn kò fetísílẹ̀ láti gbọ́ ẹ̀kọ́ tàbí kọbi ara sí ìwà ìbàjẹ́.
34 And they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it;
Wọ́n kó òrìṣà ìríra wọn jọ sí inú ilé tí wọ́n fi orúkọ mi pè, wọ́n sì ṣọ́ di àìmọ́.
35 and they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause to pass through [the fire] their sons and their daughters unto Molech: which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
Wọ́n kọ́ ibi gíga fún Baali ní àfonífojì Hinnomu láti fi ọmọ wọn ọkùnrin àti obìnrin rú ẹbọ sí Moleki. Èmi kò pàṣẹ, fún wọn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò wá sí ọkàn mi pé kí wọ́n ṣe ohun ìríra wọ̀nyí tí ó sì mú Juda dẹ́ṣẹ̀.
36 And now therefore Jehovah, the God of Israel, saith thus concerning this city, whereof ye say, It hath been given over into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence:
“Ìwọ ń sọ̀rọ̀ nípa ti ìlú yìí pé, ‘Pẹ̀lú idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ni à ó fi wọ́n fún ọba Babeli,’ ṣùgbọ́n ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ nìyìí,
37 Behold, I will gather them out of all the countries whither I have driven them, in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely.
Èmi ó kó wọn jọ láti gbogbo ilẹ̀ tí mo ti lé wọn kúrò ní ìgbà ìbínú àti ìkáàánú ńlá mi. Èmi yóò mú wọn padà wá sí ilẹ̀ yìí; èmi ó sì jẹ́ kí wọn ó máa gbé láìléwu.
38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
Wọn yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn mi, èmi yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn.
39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all [their] days, for the good of them, and of their children after them.
Èmi ó fún wọn ní ọkàn kan àti ìṣe kí wọn kí ó lè máa bẹ̀rù mi fún rere wọn àti fún rere àwọn ọmọ wọn tí ó tẹ̀lé wọn.
40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not draw back from them, to do them good; and I will put my fear in their heart, that they may not turn aside from me.
Èmi ò bá wọn dá májẹ̀mú ayérayé, èmi kò ní dúró láti ṣe rere fún wọn, Èmi ó sì jẹ́ kí wọ́n bẹ̀rù mi, wọn kì yóò sì padà lẹ́yìn mi.
41 And I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
Lóòtítọ́, èmi ó yọ̀ nípa ṣíṣe wọ́n ní rere, èmi ó sì fi dá wọn lójú nípa gbígbìn wọ́n sí ilẹ̀ yìí tọkàntọkàn mi.
42 For thus saith Jehovah: Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have spoken concerning them.
“Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa wí, gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti mú gbogbo ibi ńlá yìí wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn yìí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi ó mú gbogbo rere tí èmi ti sọ nípa tiwọn wá sórí wọn.
43 And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, pápá yóò di rírà ní ilẹ̀ yìí tí ìwọ ti sọ pé, ‘Ohun òfò ni tí kò bá sí ọkùnrin tàbí àwọn ẹran, nítorí tí a ti fi fún àwọn ará Babeli.’
44 [Men] shall buy fields for money, and subscribe the writings, and seal them, and take witnesses, in the land of Benjamin, and in the environs of Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the hill-country, and in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the south: for I will turn their captivity, saith Jehovah.
Wọn ó fi owó fàdákà ra oko, wọn yóò fi ọwọ́ sí ìwé, wọn ó dí pa pẹ̀lú ẹlẹ́rìí láti ilẹ̀ Benjamini àti ní ìlú kéékèèké tí ó yí Jerusalẹmu ká, àti ní ìlú Juda àti ní ìlú àwọn ìlú orí òkè, àti ni àwọn ẹsẹ̀ òkè, àti ní gúúsù, èmi ó mú ìgbèkùn wọn padà wá, ni Olúwa wí.”
