< Jeremiah 25 >
1 This is the message that came to Jeremiah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, son of Josiah, king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. It concerned all the people of Judah.
Ọ̀rọ̀ sì tọ Jeremiah wá nípa àwọn ènìyàn Juda ní ọdún kẹrin Jehoiakimu ọmọ Josiah ọba Juda, èyí tí ó jẹ́ ọdún kìn-ín-ní Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli.
2 So the prophet Jeremiah went and spoke to all the people of Judah and all of the people living in Jerusalem, telling them:
Nítorí náà, Jeremiah wòlíì sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Juda àti sí àwọn olùgbé Jerusalẹmu.
3 From the thirteenth year of the reign of Josiah, son of Amon, king of Judah until now, twenty-three years in total, messages from the Lord have come to me, and I have told you what he said time and again, but you have not listened.
Fún odidi ọdún mẹ́tàlélógún, bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ọdún kẹtàlá Josiah, ọmọ Amoni ọba Juda, títí di ọjọ́ yìí, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ mí wá, mo sì ti sọ ọ́ fún un yín láti ìgbà dé ìgbà, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò fetísílẹ̀.
4 Even though the Lord has sent all his servants the prophets to you time and again, you don't bother to listen or pay any attention.
Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé Olúwa ti rán gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn wòlíì sí i yín láti ìgbà dé ìgbà, ẹ̀yin kò fetísílẹ̀.
5 The consistent message has been: Give up your evil ways and the evil things you're doing so you can live in the country that the Lord has given to you and your forefathers forever.
Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ẹ yípadà olúkúlùkù yín kúrò ní inú ibi rẹ̀ àti ní ọ̀nà ibi rẹ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò sì lè dúró ní ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa fún un yín àti àwọn baba yín títí láéláé.
6 Don't follow other gods and worship them, and don't anger me by making idols. Then I won't do anything to hurt you.
Má ṣe tọ àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn lẹ́yìn láti sìn wọ́n tàbí bọ wọ́n; ẹ má ṣe mú inú bí mi pẹ̀lú ohun tí ẹ ti fi ọwọ́ yín ṣe. Nígbà náà ni Èmi kò ní ṣe yín ní ibi.”
7 But you've hurt yourselves by not listening to me, declares the Lord, because you angered me by making idols.
“Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí; “bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ sì ti mú inú bí mi pẹ̀lú ohun tí ẹ fi ọwọ́ yín ṣe, ẹ sì ti mú ibi wá sórí ara yín.”
8 So this is what the Lord Almighty says: Because you have not obeyed what I told you,
Nítorí náà, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ èyí: “Nítorí wí pé ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi,
9 watch as I summon all the people of the north, declares the Lord. I'm going to send for my servant Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, to attack this country and the people who live here, and all the surrounding nations. I will set them apart for destruction. I'm going to totally destroy you, and people will be horrified at what's happened to you and will mock you.
Èmi yóò pe gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn àríwá, àti ìránṣẹ́ mi Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli,” ni Olúwa wí. “Èmi yóò sì mú wọn dìde lòdì sí ilẹ̀ náà àti àwọn olùgbé rẹ̀ àti sí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè àyíká rẹ̀. Èmi yóò pa wọ́n run pátápátá, Èmi yóò sọ wọ́n di nǹkan ẹ̀rù àti yẹ̀yẹ́ àti ìparun ayérayé.
10 I will also put a stop to the cheerful sounds of celebration and the happy voices of the bride and bridegroom. No noise will come from millstones being used; no lamps will be lit.
Èmi yóò sì mú ìró ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn; ohùn ìyàwó àti ọkọ ìyàwó, ìró ọlọ òkúta àti ìmọ́lẹ̀ fìtílà.
11 This whole country will become an empty wasteland, and Judah and these other nations will serve the king of Babylon for seventy years.
Gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yìí yóò sì di ahoro, orílẹ̀-èdè yìí yóò sì sìn ọba Babeli ní àádọ́rin ọdún.
12 However, when these seventy years are over, I'm going to punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the country of Babylonia, for their sin, declares the Lord. I will completely destroy them.
“Ṣùgbọ́n, nígbà tí àádọ́rin ọdún náà bá pé, Èmi yóò fi ìyà jẹ ọba Babeli àti orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ, ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Babeli nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn,” ni Olúwa wí; “bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Èmi yóò sọ ọ́ di ahoro títí láé.
13 I will bring down on that country everything I threatened to do, everything that's written in this book which Jeremiah prophesied against all the different nations.
Èmi yóò sì mú gbogbo ohun tí mo ti sọ wọ̀nyí wá sórí ilẹ̀ náà, gbogbo ohun tí a ti sọ àní gbogbo èyí tí a ti kọ sínú ìwé yìí, èyí tí Jeremiah ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè.
14 Many nations and powerful kings will make slaves of them, the Babylonians, and I will pay them back for the evil they've done.
Àwọn fúnra wọn yóò sì sin orílẹ̀-èdè púpọ̀ àti àwọn ọba ńlá. Èmi yóò sì sán fún oníkálùkù gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìṣe àti iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọn.”
15 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, told me: Take this cup I'm handing to you. It contains the wine of my anger. You are to make all the nations I send you to drink from it.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí fún mi: “Gba ago yìí ní ọwọ́ mí tí ó kún fún ọtí wáìnì ìbínú mi, kí o sì mú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ti mo rán ọ sí mu ún.
16 They will drink and stumble around and go mad because of the war brought by the armies I'm sending to attack them.
Nígbà tí wọ́n bá mu ún, wọn yóò ta gbọ̀nọ́ngbọ̀nọ́n: bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí wọ́n di aṣiwèrè nítorí idà tí yóò ránṣẹ́ sí àárín wọn.”
17 I took the cup the Lord handed to me and made all the nations he sent me to drink from it:
Mo sì gba ago náà lọ́wọ́ Olúwa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni mo sì mú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó rán mi sí mu ún.
18 To Jerusalem and the towns of Judah, its kings and officials, destroying them so that people were horrified at what happened to them and mocked them and cursed them (and they are still like this today);
Jerusalẹmu àti àwọn ìlú Juda, àwọn ọba wọn pẹ̀lú àwọn aláṣẹ wọn, láti sọ wọ́n di ohun ìparun, ohun ẹ̀rù, ẹ̀sìn àti ègún, gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti rí lónìí yìí.
19 to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and his officials, leaders, all his people
Farao ọba Ejibiti, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn aláṣẹ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
20 and all the foreigners living there; to all the kings of the country of Uz; to all the kings of the Philistines: Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and what's left of Ashdod;
Àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn àjèjì tí ó wà níbẹ̀; gbogbo àwọn ọba Usi, gbogbo àwọn ọba Filistini, gbogbo àwọn ti Aṣkeloni, Gasa, Ekroni àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó kù sí Aṣdodu.
21 to Edom, Moab, and the Ammonites;
Edomu, Moabu àti Ammoni;
22 to all the kings of Tyre and Sidon; to the kings of the Mediterranean sea coast;
gbogbo àwọn ọba Tire àti Sidoni; gbogbo àwọn ọba erékùṣù wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ń bẹ ní ìkọjá Òkun.
23 to Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all those who trim their hair on the sides of their heads;
Dedani, Tema, Busi àti gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé lọ́nà jíjìn réré.
24 to all the kings of Arabia; and to all the kings of the different tribes living in the desert;
Gbogbo àwọn ọba Arabia àti àwọn ọba àwọn àjèjì ènìyàn tí ń gbé inú aginjù.
25 to all the kings of Zimri, Elam, and Media;
Gbogbo àwọn ọba Simri, Elamu àti Media.
26 to all the kings of the north; in fact to all the kingdoms on earth whether close or far away, one after another. After all of them, the king of Babylon will drink it too.
Àti gbogbo àwọn ọba àríwá ní tòsí àti lọ́nà jíjìn, ẹnìkínní lẹ́yìn ẹnìkejì; gbogbo àwọn ìjọba lórí orílẹ̀ ayé. Àti gbogbo wọn, ọba Ṣeṣaki náà yóò sì mu.
27 Tell them this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, make yourselves drunk, and vomit. Because of the war you'll be killed, falling down never to get up again.
“Nígbà náà, sọ fún wọn, èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára Israẹli wí. Mu, kí o sì mú àmuyó kí o sì bì, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí o sì ṣubú láì dìde mọ́ nítorí idà tí n ó rán sí àárín yín.
28 If they should refuse to take the cup and drink from it, tell them that this is what the Lord Almighty says: You can't avoid drinking it—you have to!
Ṣùgbọ́n bí wọ́n ba kọ̀ láti gba ago náà ní ọwọ́ rẹ kí wọ́n sì mu ún, sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ: Ẹyin gbọdọ̀ mu ún!
29 Can't you see that I'm about to bring disaster down on my own city, so do you really think you wouldn't be punished as well? You won't go unpunished, for I am bringing war to everyone on earth, declares the Lord Almighty.
Wò ó, èmi ń mú ibi bọ̀ sí orí orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó ń jẹ́ orúkọ mi; ǹjẹ́ yóò ha a lè lọ láìjìyà? Ẹ̀yin ń pe idà sọ̀kalẹ̀ sórí gbogbo àwọn olùgbé ayé, ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ.’
30 Give this whole message as a prophecy against them. Tell them: The Lord will thunder from high above. He will thunder loudly from the holy place where he lives. He will give a great roar against the sheepfolds. He will give a loud shout like people treading the grapes, frightening everyone who lives on earth.
“Nísinsin yìí, sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí nípa wọn: “‘Kí o sì sọ pé, Olúwa yóò bú láti òkè wá, yóò sì bú kíkankíkan sí ilẹ̀ náà. Yóò parí gbogbo olùgbé ayé, bí àwọn tí ń tẹ ìfúntí.
31 The sound will reach everywhere on the earth because the Lord is accusing the nations. He is judging everyone, executing the wicked, declares the Lord.
Ìrọ́kẹ̀kẹ̀ yóò wà títí dé òpin ilẹ̀ ayé, nítorí pé Olúwa yóò mú ìdààmú wá sí orí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè náà, yóò mú ìdájọ́ wá sórí gbogbo ènìyàn, yóò sì fi àwọn olùṣe búburú fún idà,’” ni Olúwa wí.
32 This is what the Lord Almighty says: Watch out! Disaster is falling on one nation after another; an immense storm is building up in the far distance.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, “Wò ó! Ibi ń tànkálẹ̀ láti orílẹ̀-èdè kan sí òmíràn; ìjì ńlá yóò sì ru sókè láti òpin ayé.”
33 Those killed by the Lord at that time will cover the earth from one end to the other. No one will mourn them, or collect them, or bury them. They will be like piles of manure lying on the ground.
Nígbà náà, àwọn tí Olúwa ti pa yóò wà ní ibi gbogbo, láti ìpẹ̀kun kan sí òmíràn. A kì yóò ṣọ̀fọ̀ wọn, a kì yóò kó wọn jọ tàbí sin wọ́n; ṣùgbọ́n wọn yóò dàbí ààtàn lórí ilẹ̀.
34 Cry out and weep, you shepherds! Roll around on the ground mourning, you leaders of the flock. The time for you to be killed has come; you will fall, smashed like the finest pottery.
Ké, kí ẹ sì pohùnréré ẹkún ẹ̀yin olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, ẹ yí nínú eruku, ẹ̀yin olùdarí agbo ẹran. Nítorí pé ọjọ́ àti pa yín ti dé, ẹ̀yin ó sì ṣubú bí ohun èlò iyebíye.
35 The shepherds won't be able to run away; the leaders of the flock won't escape.
Àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn kì yóò rí ibi sálọ kì yóò sì ṣí àsálà fún olórí agbo ẹran.
36 Listen to the cries of the shepherds, the weeping of the leaders of the flock, for the Lord is destroying their pasturelands.
Gbọ́ igbe àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, àti ìpohùnréré ẹkún àwọn olórí agbo ẹran; nítorí pé Olúwa ń pa pápá oko tútù wọn run.
37 The peaceful sheepfolds have been ruined because of the Lord's fierce anger.
Ibùgbé àlàáfíà yóò di ahoro, nítorí ìbínú ńlá Olúwa.
38 The Lord has left his den like a lion, because their country has been devastated by the invading armies, and because of the Lord's fierce anger.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí kìnnìún yóò fi ibùba rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ilẹ̀ wọn yóò sì di ahoro, nítorí idà àwọn aninilára, àti nítorí ìbínú ńlá Olúwa.
