Jeremiah 46
1 The wordes of the Lord, which came to Ieremiah the Prophet against the Gentiles,
Ndị a bụ okwu Onyenwe anyị, nke ruru Jeremaya onye amụma ntị, banyere mba dị iche iche.
2 As against Egypt, against ye armie of Pharaoh Necho King of Egypt, which was by the riuer Perath in Carchemish, which Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel smote in the fourth yere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah.
Nke dịrị Ijipt: Ndị a bụ okwu dị megide usuu ndị agha Fero Neko, bụ eze Ijipt, ndị Nebukadneza eze Babilọn meriri nʼagha na Kakemish, nʼakụkụ osimiri Yufretis, nʼafọ nke anọ nke ọchịchị Jehoiakim nwa Josaya, bụ eze Juda.
3 Make readie buckler and shielde, and goe forth to battell.
“Kwadoonụ ọta agha unu, ndị ukwu na ndị nta, zọpụnụ ije maka ibu agha.
4 Make readie the horses, and let the horsemen get vp, and stande vp with your sallets, fourbish the speares, and put on the brigandines.
Kegidezienụ ịnyịnya unu, rịkwasịkwanụ nʼelu ha. Guzokwanụ nʼọnọdụ ibu agha unu, ma kpukwasịkwanụ onwe unu okpu agha unu. Mụọnụ ùbe unu ka ọ dị nkọ, yikwasịkwanụ uwe agha unu.
5 Wherefore haue I seene them afraid, and driuen backe? for their mighty men are smitten, and are fled away, and looke not backe: for feare was rounde about, sayeth the Lord.
Gịnị ka anya m abụọ hụrụ? Ụjọ na-atụ ha, ha na-agbaghachikwa azụ; lee, a na-etipịa ndị ha bụ dike nʼagha. Ha na-agbasi ọsọ ike, na-eleghị anya nʼazụ. Egwu dịkwa nʼakụkụ niile,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
6 The swift shall not flee away, nor the strong man escape: they shall stumble, and fall towarde the North by the riuer Perath.
“Ndị nwere ụkwụ ọsọ enweghị ike ịgbalaga, ndị dị ike enweghị ike isi nʼebe ahụ wezuga onwe ha. Ha na-asọ ngọngọ daa, nʼakụkụ ugwu dị nso nʼosimiri Yufretis.
7 Who is this, that commeth vp, as a flood, whose waters are mooued like the riuers?
“Onye bụ onye a, nke na-ebili ọtọ dịka osimiri Naịl, na dịka osimiri nke mmiri ya na-amagharị?
8 Egypt riseth vp like the flood, and his waters are mooued like the riuers, and he sayth, I wil goe vp, and will couer the earth: I wil destroy the citie with them that dwell therein.
Ijipt na-ebili elu dịka osimiri Naịl, dịka osimiri nke mmiri ya na-amagharị. Ọ na-asị, ‘Aga m ebili kpuchie ụwa niile. Aga m ebibi obodo ukwu dị iche iche, na ndị mmadụ bi nʼime ha.’
9 Come vp, ye horses, and rage ye charets, and let the valiant men come foorth, the blacke Mores, and the Lybians that beare the shield, and the Lydians that handle and bend the bowe.
Gbabanyenụ nʼọgbọ agha, unu ịnyịnya niile. Gbanụ ọkụ ọkụ, unu ndị na-agba ụgbọ agha. Zọọnụ ike ike, unu ndị bụ dike nʼagha, unu ndị ikom Kush na Put, ndị na-ebu ọta, na unu ndị ikom Lidiya ndị na-agba ụta.
10 For this is the day of ye Lord God of hostes, and a day of vengeance, that he may auenge him of his enemies: for the sworde shall deuoure, and it shall be saciate, and made drunke with their blood: for the Lord God of hosts hath a sacrifice in the North countrey by the Riuer Perath.
Ma ụbọchị ahụ dịrị Onyenwe anyị, bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile. Ọ bụ ụbọchị ịbọ ọbọ ya, ụbọchị ọ ga-abọrọ ọbọ nʼahụ ndị iro ya. Mma agha ga-eripịa ha tutu afọ eju ya, e, tutu ruo mgbe ọ ṅụjuru ọbara afọ. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ga-achụ aja nʼala ahụ dị nʼugwu, nke dị nso osimiri Yufretis.
11 Goe vp vnto Gilead, and take balme, O virgine, the daughter of Egypt: in vaine shalt thou vse many medicines: for thou shalt haue no health.
“Rigoro Gilead ka i weta mmanụ a na-ete nʼọnya, gị Ada Ijipt na-amaghị nwoke. Ma ọ bụ nʼefu ka ị na-ewebata ọgwụ ndị a niile, nʼihi na ọgwụgwọ ọbụla agaghị adịrị gị.
12 The nations haue heard of thy shame, and thy crie hath filled the lande: for the strong hath stumbled against the strong and they are fallen both together.
Mba niile ga-anụ akụkọ ihe ihere bịakwasịrị gị. Nʼakụkụ niile nke ụwa ka a ga-anụkwa ịkwa akwa gị. Otu dike nʼagha na-asọ ngọngọ na-adakwasị dike ibe ya; ha abụọ na-adakwa nʼala.”
13 The woorde that the Lord spake to Ieremiah the Prophet, howe Nebuchad-nezzar king of Babel shoulde come and smite the lande of Egypt.
Okwu ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị gwara Jeremaya onye amụma, banyere ọbịbịa nke Nebukadneza, bụ eze Babilọn, onye na-abịa ibuso Ijipt agha.
14 Publish in Egypt and declare in Migdol, and proclaime in Noph, and in Tahpanhes, and say, Stand still, and prepare thee: for the sworde shall deuoure rounde about thee.
“Kwupụtanụ ihe ndị a nʼIjipt. Kwusaa ya na Migdol. Kwusaakwa ya na Memfis, na nʼobodo Tapanhis. Guzozienụ onwe unu nʼusoro, nọọkwanụ na njikere, nʼihi na mma agha na-eripịa ndị gbara unu gburugburu.
15 Why are thy valiant men put backe? they could not stand, because the Lord did driue them.
Gịnị mere a ga-eji gbudasịa ndị gị niile bụ dike nʼagha? Ha agaghị enwe ike guzokwa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ga-akwada ha.
16 Hee made many to fall, and one fell vpon another: and they saide, Arise, let vs goe againe to our owne people, and to the land of our natiuitie from the sworde of the violent.
Ha ga-asọ ngọngọ mgbe mgbe, ha ga-adakwasịkwa nʼelu ibe ha. Ha ga-asịkwa, ‘Bilienụ ọtọ, bịanụ ka anyị laghachikwuru ndị anyị, ka anyị laghachikwa nʼala ebe a mụrụ anyị, ka anyị wezugakwa onwe anyị site na mma agha nke ndị mmegbu.’
17 They did cry there, Pharaoh King of Egypt, and of a great multitude hath passed the time appointed.
Nʼebe ahụ ka ha ga-anọ tie mkpu sị, ‘Fero eze Ijipt bụ naanị onye oke okwu. Lee, oge a kara aka nye ya efunarịla ya.’
18 As I liue, saith the King, whose Name is the Lord of hostes, surely as Tabor is in the mountaines, and as Carmel is in the sea: so shall it come.
“Dịka mụ onwe m na-adị ndụ,” ka Eze ahụ kwupụtara, onye aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, “otu onye ga-abịa, onye dị ukwuu dịka ugwu Taboa si dị ukwuu nʼebe ugwu ndị ọzọ dị, na dịka Kamel si dịrị nʼakụkụ osimiri.
19 O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, make thee geare to goe into captiuitie: for Noph shall be waste and desolate, without an inhabitant.
Kwakọtaanụ ngwongwo unu, jikerenụ maka ije biri nʼala ọzọ, unu ndị bi nʼIjipt, nʼihi na a ga-eme ka Memfis ghọọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Ọ ga-aghọkwa mkpọmkpọ ebe, nke mmadụ na-agaghị ebi nʼime ya.
20 Egypt is like a faire calfe, but destruction commeth: out of the North it commeth.
“Ijipt mara mma dịka nne ehi, ma ijiji nke si nʼakụkụ ugwu, na-abịa imegide ya.
21 Also her hired men are in the middes of her like fat calues: they are also turned backe and fled away together: they could not stand, because the day of their destruction was come vpon them, and the time of their visitation.
Ndị agha e goro ego nọ nʼetiti ha dịka ụmụ ehi gbara abụba. Ha onwe ha kwa ga-atụgharịa gbaa ọsọ, ha agaghị eguzo, nʼihi na ụbọchị nhụju anya na-abịakwasị ha, bụ ụbọchị a ga-ata ha ahụhụ.
22 The voyce thereof shall goe foorth like a serpent: for they shall march with an armie, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
Ijipt ga-eme mkpọtụ, dịka mkpọtụ nke agwọ na-agba ọsọ na-eme, mgbe ndị iro ya ji ike na-abịakwasị ya. Ha ga-eji anyụike bịakwasị ya, dịka ndị na-egbutu osisi.
23 They shall cut downe her forest, saith the Lord: for they cannot be counted, because they are moe then ye grashoppers, and are innumerable.
Ha ga-egbutu oke ọhịa ya,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, “nʼagbanyeghị na ọ bụ oke ọhịa rubigara oke. Ha dị ọtụtụ karịa igurube, a pụghịkwa ịgụta ole ha dị.
24 The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded: she shall be deliuered into the handes of the people of the North.
A ga-eme ka ihere mee Ada Ijipt, mgbe e nyefere ya nʼaka ndị si nʼakụkụ ugwu bịa.”
25 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Behold, I will visite the common people of No and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods and their Kings, euen Pharaoh, and al them that trust in him,
Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, bụ Chineke Izrel, sịrị, “Ana m aga ime ka ahụhụ bịakwasị Amọn, bụ chi ndị Tibs, na Fero, na ala Ijipt na chi niile dị nʼime ya, ndị eze ya niile nakwa ndị ahụ na-atụkwasị Fero obi.
26 And I will deliuer them into the handes of those, that seeke their liues, and into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, and into the handes of his seruants, and afterwarde she shall dwell as in the olde time, saith the Lord.
Aga m enyefe ha nʼaka ndị ahụ na-achọsi ndụ ha ike, bụ Nebukadneza eze Babilọn, na ndịisi ọchịchị ya. Ma nʼikpeazụ, aga m emekwa ka ndị mmadụ birikwa nʼime ya ọzọ, dịka e si biri nʼime ya na mgbe ochie.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
27 But feare not thou, O my seruant Iaakob, and be not thou afraid, O Israel: for behold, I will deliuer thee from a farre countrey, and thy seede from the land of their captiuitie, and Iaakob shall returne and be in rest, and prosperitie, and none shall make him afraid.
“Atụla egwu, gị Jekọb, ohu m. Adakwala mba, gị Izrel. Nʼihi na lee, aghaghị m ịzọpụta gị site nʼebe dị anya nke e mere ka ị gaa biri. Aga m azọpụtakwa ụmụ ụmụ gị site nʼala ebe e mere ka ha gbapụ ọsọ gaa biri. Jekọb ga-emesịakwa biri nʼudo, na-atụghị egwu ọbụla. Ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-eme ka ọ tụọ ụjọ.
28 Feare thou not, O Iaakob my seruant, saith the Lord: for I am with thee, and I will vtterly destroy all the nations, whither I haue driuen thee: but I will not vtterly destroy thee, but correct thee by iudgement, and not vtterly cut thee off.
Atụla egwu, gị Jekọb, ohu m, nʼihi na anọnyeere m gị,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya. “A sịkwarị na m ebibie mba ndị ahụ niile nke m mere ka ị gaa biri nʼetiti ha kpamkpam, agaghị m ebibi gị kpamkpam. Aga m adọ gị aka na ntị, ma ọ ga-abụ site nʼụzọ ikpe ikpe ziri ezi. Agakwaghị m ahapụ inye gị ahụhụ i kwesiri ịnata.”
