< Jeremiah 10 >
1 Heare ye the worde of the Lord that he speaketh vnto you, O house of Israel.
Gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa sọ fún yín ẹ̀yin ilé Israẹli.
2 Thus saith the Lord, Learne not the way of the heathen, and be not afraid for the signes of heauen, though the heathen be afraid of such.
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Má ṣe kọ́ ìwà àwọn kèfèrí, kí àmì ọ̀run kí ó má sì dààmú yín, nítorí pé wọ́n ń dààmú orílẹ̀-èdè.
3 For the customes of the people are vaine: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest (which is the worke of the handes of the carpenter) with the axe,
Nítorí pé asán ni àṣà àwọn ènìyàn, wọ́n gé igi láti inú igbó, oníṣọ̀nà sì gbẹ́ ẹ pẹ̀lú àáké rẹ̀.
4 And another decketh it with siluer, and with golde: they fasten it with nailes, and hammers, that it fall not.
Wọ́n fi fàdákà àti wúrà ṣe é lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́. Wọ́n fi òòlù kàn án àti ìṣó kí ó má ba à ṣubú.
5 The idoles stande vp as the palme tree, but speake not: they are borne because they cannot go feare them not, for they cannot do euill, neither can they do good.
Wọ́n wé mọ́ igi bí ẹ̀gúnsí inú oko, òrìṣà wọn kò le è fọhùn. Wọ́n gbọdọ̀ máa gbé wọn nítorí pé wọn kò lè rìn. Má ṣe bẹ̀rù wọn; wọn kò le è ṣe ibi kankan bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò si lè ṣe rere kan.”
6 There is none like vnto thee, O Lord: thou art great, and thy name is great in power.
Kò sí ẹni tí ó dàbí rẹ Olúwa; o tóbi orúkọ rẹ sì tóbi lágbára.
7 Who would not feare thee, O King of nations? for to thee appertaineth the dominion: for among all the wise men of the Gentiles, and in al their kingdomes there is none like thee.
Ta ni kò yẹ kí ó bẹ̀rù rẹ? Ọba àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè? Nítorí tìrẹ ni. Láàrín àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n ènìyàn ní orílẹ̀-èdè àti gbogbo ìjọba wọn, kò sí ẹni tí ó dàbí rẹ.
8 But, altogether they dote, and are foolish: for the stocke is a doctrine of vanitie.
Gbogbo wọn jẹ́ aláìlóye àti aṣiwèrè, wọ́n ń kọ́ ẹ̀kọ́ àwọn ère igi tí kò níláárí.
9 Siluer plates are brought from Tarshish, and golde from Vphaz, for the worke of the workeman, and the handes of the founder: the blewe silke, and the purple is their clothing: all these things are made by cunning men.
Fàdákà tí a ti kàn ni a mú wá láti Tarṣiṣi, àti wúrà láti Upasi. Èyí tí àwọn oníṣọ̀nà àti alágbẹ̀dẹ ṣe tí wọ́n kùn ní àwọ̀ aró àti elése àlùkò, èyí jẹ́ iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n oníṣọ̀nà.
10 But the Lord is the God of trueth: he is the liuing God, and an euerlasting King: at his anger the earth shall tremble, and the nations cannot abide his wrath.
Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa ni Ọlọ́run tòótọ́, òun ni Ọlọ́run alààyè, ọba ayérayé. Nígbà tí ó bá bínú, ayé yóò wárìrì; orílẹ̀-èdè kò lè fi ara da ìbínú rẹ̀.
11 (Thus shall you say vnto them, The gods that haue not made the heauens and the earth, shall perish from the earth, and from vnder these heauens)
“Sọ èyí fún wọn: ‘Àwọn ọlọ́run kéékèèké tí kò dá ọ̀run àti ayé ni yóò ṣègbé láti ayé àti ní abẹ́ ọ̀run.’”
12 He hath made the earth by his power, and established the worlde by his wisedome, and hath stretched out the heauen by his discretion.
Ọlọ́run dá ayé pẹ̀lú agbára rẹ̀, ó dá àgbáyé pẹ̀lú ọgbọ́n rẹ̀, ó mú kí ọ̀run kí ó fẹ̀ síta nípa òye rẹ̀.
13 Hee giueth by his voyce the multitude of waters in the heauen, and he causeth the cloudes to ascend from the endes of the earth: he turneth lightnings to rayne, and bringeth forth the winde out of his treasures.
Nígbà tí ó bá sán àrá, àwọn omi lọ́run a sì pariwo; ó mú kí ìkùùkuu ru sókè láti òpin ayé. Ó rán mọ̀nàmọ́ná pẹ̀lú òjò, ó sì ń mú afẹ́fẹ́ wá láti ilé ìṣúra rẹ̀.
14 Euery man is a beast by his owne knowledge: euery founder is confounded by the grauen image: for his melting is but falsehood, and there is no breath therein.
Gbogbo ènìyàn jẹ́ aṣiwèrè àti aláìnímọ̀, ojú ti gbogbo alágbẹ̀dẹ níwájú ère rẹ̀, nítorí ère dídá rẹ̀ èké ni, kò sì ṣí ẹ̀mí nínú rẹ̀.
15 They are vanitie, and the worke of errours: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
Asán ni wọ́n, iṣẹ́ ìṣìnà; nígbà ìbẹ̀wò wọn, wọn yóò ṣègbé.
16 The portion of Iaakob is not like them: for he is the maker of all things, and Israel is the rodde of his inheritance: the Lord of hostes is his Name.
Ẹni tí ó bá jẹ́ ìpín Jakọbu kò sì dàbí èyí, nítorí òun ni ó ṣẹ̀dá ohun gbogbo àti Israẹli tí ó jẹ́ ẹ̀yà ìjogún rẹ̀. Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀.
17 Gather vp thy wares out of the land, O thou that dwellest in the strong place.
Kó ẹrù rẹ kúrò láti fi ilẹ̀ náà sílẹ̀ ìwọ tí o ń gbé ní ìlú tí a dó tì.
18 For thus sayth the Lord, Beholde, at this time I will throwe as with a sling the inhabitants of the lande, and will trouble them, and they shall finde it so.
Nítorí èyí ni Olúwa wí: “Ní àkókò yìí, èmi yóò gbọn àwọn tí ó ń gbé ilẹ̀ náà jáde. Èmi yóò mú ìpọ́njú bá wọn, kí wọn kí ó lè rí wọn mú.”
19 Wo is me for my destruction, and my grieuous plague: but I thought, Yet it is my sorow, and I will beare it.
Ègbé ni fún mi nítorí ìpalára mi! Ọgbẹ́ mi jẹ́ èyí tí kò lè sàn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni mọ sọ fún ara mi, “Èyí ni àìsàn mi, mo sì gbọdọ̀ fi orí tì í.”
20 My tabernacle is destroyed, and all my coardes are broken: my children are gone from me, and are not: there is none to spread out my tent any more, and to set vp my curtaines.
Àgọ́ mi bàjẹ́, gbogbo okùn rẹ̀ sì já. Àwọn ọmọ mi ti lọ lọ́dọ̀ mi, wọn kò sì sí mọ́, kò sí ẹnìkankan tí yóò na àgọ́ mi ró mọ́, tàbí yóò ṣe ibùgbé fún mi.
21 For the Pastours are become beasts, and haue not sought the Lord: therefore haue they none vnderstanding: and all the flockes of their pastures are scattered.
Àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn jẹ́ aṣiwèrè, wọn kò sì wá Olúwa: nítorí náà wọn kì yóò ṣe rere àti pé gbogbo agbo wọn ni yóò túká.
22 Beholde, the noyse of the brute is come, and a great commotion out of the North countrey to make the cities of Iudah desolate, and a denne of dragons.
Fetísílẹ̀! ariwo igbe ń bọ̀, àti ìdàrúdàpọ̀ ńlá láti ilẹ̀ àríwá wá! Yóò sì sọ ìlú Juda di ahoro, àti ihò ọ̀wàwà.
23 O Lord, I knowe, that the way of man is not in himselfe, neyther is it in man to walke and to direct his steps.
Èmi mọ̀ Olúwa wí pé ọ̀nà ènìyàn kì í ṣe ti ara rẹ̀, kì í ṣe fún ènìyàn láti tọ́ ìgbésẹ̀ ara rẹ̀.
24 O Lord, correct mee, but with iudgement, not in thine anger, least thou bring mee to nothing.
Tún mi ṣe Olúwa, pẹ̀lú ìdájọ́ nìkan kí o má sì ṣe é nínú ìbínú rẹ, kí ìwọ má ṣe sọ mí di òfo.
25 Powre out thy wrath vpon the heathen, that knowe thee not, and vpon the families that call not on thy Name: for they haue eaten vp Iaakob and deuoured him and consumed him, and haue made his habitation desolate.
Tú ìbínú rẹ jáde sórí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí kò mọ̀ ọ́n, sórí àwọn ènìyàn tí wọn kò pe orúkọ rẹ. Nítorí pé wọ́n ti jẹ Jakọbu run, wọ́n ti jẹ ẹ́ run pátápátá, wọ́n sì sọ ibùgbé rẹ̀ di ahoro.
