Jeremiah 42
1 Then all the captaines of the hoste, and Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and Iezaniah the sonne of Hoshaaiah, and all the people from the least vnto the most came,
Nígbà náà ní gbogbo àwọn olórí ogun àti Johanani ọmọkùnrin Karea àti Jesaniah ọmọkùnrin Hoṣaiah àti kékeré títí dé orí ẹni ńlá wá.
2 And saide vnto Ieremiah the Prophete, Heare our prayer, we beseeche thee, and pray for vs vnto the Lord thy God, euen for all this remnant (for we are left, but a fewe of many, as thine eyes doe beholde)
Sí ọ̀dọ̀ Jeremiah wòlíì náà, wọ́n sì sọ fún un pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ gbọ́ ẹ̀bẹ̀ wa, kí o sì gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fún gbogbo ìyókù yìí. Nítorí gẹ́gẹ́ bi ìwọ ṣe rí i nísinsin yìí pé a pọ̀ níye nígbà kan rí; ṣùgbọ́n báyìí àwa díẹ̀ la ṣẹ́kù.
3 That the Lord thy God may shewe vs the way wherein wee may walke, and the thing that we may doe.
Gbàdúrà pé kí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ sọ ibi tí àwa yóò lọ fún wa àti ohun tí àwa yóò ṣe.”
4 Then Ieremiah the Prophet said vnto them, I haue heard you: behold, I will pray vnto ye Lord your God according to your wordes, and whatsoeuer thing the Lord shall answere you, I will declare it vnto you: I will keepe nothing backe from you.
Wòlíì Jeremiah sì dáhùn wí pé, “Mo ti gbọ́. Èmi yóò gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀yin ṣe béèrè. Èmi yóò sọ gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa bá sọ fún un yín, ń kò sì ní fi ohunkóhun pamọ́ fún un yín.”
5 Then they said to Ieremiah, The Lord be a witnesse of trueth, and faith betweene vs, if we doe not, euen according to all things for ye which the Lord thy God shall send thee to vs.
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n sọ fún Jeremiah wí pé, “Kí Olúwa ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí òtítọ́ àti òdodo láàrín wa, bí àwa kò bá ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ bá rán ọ láti sọ fún wa.
6 Whether it be good or euill, we will obey the voyce of the Lord God, to whom we sende thee that it may be well with vs, when wee obey the voyce of the Lord our God.
Ìbá à ṣe rere, ìbá à ṣe búburú, àwa yóò gbọ́rọ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, èyí tí àwa ń rán ọ sí, kí ó ba à lè dára fún wa. Nítorí pé àwa yóò gbọ́rọ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.”
7 And so after ten dayes came the word of the Lord vnto Ieremiah.
Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ mẹ́wàá, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá,
8 Then called he Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste, which were with him, and all ye people from ye least to the most,
O sì pe Johanani ọmọkùnrin Karea àti gbogbo àwọn olórí ogun tí wọ́n wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn láti orí ẹni tí ó kéré dé orí ẹni ńlá.
9 And saide vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, vnto whom ye sent me to present your prayers before him,
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Israẹli wí: ‘Èyí ni ẹni tí ẹ̀yin ti rán láti gbé ẹ̀bẹ̀ yín lọ síwájú mi.
10 If ye will dwell in this land, then I wil build you, and not destroy you, and I will plant you, and not roote you out: for I repent me of the euill that I haue done vnto you.
Bí ẹ̀yin bá gbé ní ilẹ̀ yìí, èmi yóò gbé e yín ró, n kò sí ní fà yín lulẹ̀, èmi yóò gbìn yín, n kì yóò fà yín tu nítorí wí pé èmi yí ọkàn padà ní ti ibi tí mo ti ṣe sí i yín.
11 Feare not for the King of Babel, of whom ye are afraide: be not afraid of him, saith the Lord: for I am with you, to saue you, and to deliuer you from his hand,
Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù ọba Babeli tí ẹ̀yin ń bẹ̀rù, báyìí ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù rẹ̀ ni Olúwa wí; nítorí tí èmi wà pẹ̀lú yín láti pa yín mọ́ àti láti gbà yín ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀.
12 And I will graunt you mercie that he may haue compassion vpon you, and he shall cause you to dwell in your owne land.
Èmi yóò fi àánú hàn sí i yín, kí ó lè ṣàánú fún un yín, kí ó sì mú un yín padà sí ilẹ̀ yín.’
13 But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land, neither heare the voyce of the Lord your God,
“Ṣùgbọ́n sá, bí ẹ̀yin bá wí pé, ‘Àwa kò ní gbé ilẹ̀ yìí,’ ẹ̀yin ti ṣe àìgbọ́ràn sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín.
14 Saying, Nay, but we will goe into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no warre, nor heare the sounde of the trumpet, nor haue hunger of bread, and there will we dwell,
Àti pé bí ẹ̀yin bá wí pé, ‘Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, àwa yóò lọ gbé ní Ejibiti; níbi tí àwa kì yóò rí ìró ogunkógun, tí a kì yóò sì gbọ́ ìró fèrè, tí ebi oúnjẹ kì yóò sì pa wá, níbẹ̀ ni àwa ó sì máa gbé,’
15 (And nowe therefore heare the worde of the Lord, ye remnant of Iudah: thus sayeth the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, If ye set your faces to enter into Egypt, and goe to dwell there)
nítorí náà, ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ẹ̀yin ìyókù Juda èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun Israẹli wí: ‘Bí ẹ̀yin bá pinnu láti lọ sí Ejibiti láti lọ ṣe àtìpó níbẹ̀.
16 Then the sworde that ye feared, shall take you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine, for the which ye care, shall there hang vpon you in Egypt, and there shall ye die.
Yóò sì ṣe, idà tí ẹ̀yin bẹ̀rù yóò sì lé e yín bá níbẹ̀; àti ìyanu náà tí ẹ̀yin ń bẹ̀rù yóò sì tẹ̀lé yín lọ sí Ejibiti àti pé ibẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin yóò kú sí.
17 And all the men that set their faces to enter into Egypt to dwell there, shall die by ye sword, by the famine and by the pestilence, and none of them shall remaine nor escape from the plague, that I will bring vpon them.
Nítorí náà, gbogbo àwọn tí ó ti pinnu láti ṣe àtìpó ní Ejibiti ni yóò ti ipa idà kú, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn kò sì ní jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú wọn yè tàbí sá àsálà nínú ibi tí èmi yóò mú wá sórí wọn.’
18 For thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, As mine anger and my wrath hath bene powred foorth vpon the inhabitants of Ierusalem: so shall my wrath be powred foorth vpon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt, and ye shall be a detestation, and an astonishment, and a curse and a reproche, and ye shall see this place no more.
Báyìí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: ‘Gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti da ìbínú àti ìrunú síta sórí àwọn tí ó ń gbé ní Jerusalẹmu, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìrunú mi yóò dà síta sórí yín, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá lọ sí Ejibiti. Ẹ̀yin ó sì di ẹni ègún àti ẹni ẹ̀gàn àti ẹ̀sín, ẹ̀yin kì yóò sì rí ibí yìí mọ́.’
19 O ye remnant of Iudah, the Lord hath said concerning you, Goe not into Egypt: knowe certeinely that I haue admonished you this day.
“Ẹ̀yin yòókù Juda, Olúwa ti sọ fún un yín pé, ‘Kí ẹ má ṣe lọ sí Ejibiti.’ Ẹ mọ èyí dájú, èmi kìlọ̀ fún un yín lónìí,
20 Surely ye dissembled in your hearts When ye sent me vnto the Lord your God, saying, Pray for vs vnto the Lord our God, and declare vnto vs euen according vnto al that the Lord our God shall say, and we will doe it.
pé àṣìṣe ńlá gbá à ni ẹ̀yin ṣe nígbà tí ẹ̀yin rán mi sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín pé, ‘Gbàdúrà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa fún wa; sọ fún wa gbogbo ohun tí ó bá sọ, àwa yóò sì ṣe é.’
21 Therefore I haue this day declared it you, but you haue not obeyed the voyce of the Lord your God, nor any thing for the which he hath sent me vnto you.
Mo ti sọ fún un yín lónìí, ṣùgbọ́n síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò tí ì gbọ́ ohùn Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, àti gbogbo ohun tí ó rán mi láti sọ fún un yín.
22 Nowe therefore, knowe certeinely that ye shall die by the sworde, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place whither ye desire to goe and dwell.
Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí ẹ mọ èyí dájú pé, ẹ̀yin yóò kú nípa idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn níbikíbi tí ẹ̀yin bá fẹ́ lọ láti ṣe àtìpó.”
