< Joel 2 >
1 Blowe the trumpet in Zion, and shoute in mine holy mountaine: let all the inhabitants of the lande tremble: for the day of the Lord is come: for it is at hand.
Ẹ fun ìpè ní Sioni, ẹ sì fún ìpè ìdágìrì ní òkè mímọ́ mi. Jẹ́ kí àwọn ará ilẹ̀ náà wárìrì, nítorí tí ọjọ́ Olúwa ń bọ̀ wá, nítorí ó kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀.
2 A day of darkenesse, and of blacknesse, a day of cloudes, and obscuritie, as the morning spred vpon the mountaines, so is there a great people, and a mighty: there was none like it from the beginning, neither shalbe any more after it, vnto the yeeres of many generations.
Ọjọ́ òkùnkùn àti ìrọ́kẹ̀kẹ̀, ọjọ́ ìkùùkuu àti òkùnkùn biribiri. Bí ọyẹ́ òwúrọ̀ ti í la bo orí àwọn òkè ńlá: àwọn ènìyàn ńlá àti alágbára; ya dé, ti kó ti ì sí irú rẹ̀ rí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni irú rẹ̀ kì yóò sí mọ́ lẹ́yìn rẹ̀, títí dé ọdún ìran dé ìran.
3 A fire deuoureth before him, and behinde him a flame burneth vp: the land is as the garden of Eden before him, and behinde him a desolate wildernesse, so that nothing shall escape him.
Iná ń jó níwájú wọ́n; ọwọ́ iná sì ń jó lẹ́yìn wọn. Ilẹ̀ náà dàbí ọgbà Edeni níwájú wọn, àti lẹ́yìn wọn bí ahoro ijù; nítòótọ́, kò sì sí ohun tí yóò bọ́ lọ́wọ́ wọn.
4 The beholding of him is like the sight of horses, and like the horsemen, so shall they runne.
Ìrí wọn dàbí ìrí àwọn ẹṣin; wọ́n ń sáré lọ bí àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin ogun.
5 Like the noyse of charrets in the toppes of the mountaines shall they leape, like the noyse of a flame of fire that deuoureth the stubble, and as a mightie people prepared to the battel.
Bí ariwo kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun ni wọn ń fo ní orí òkè bí ariwo ọ̀wọ́-iná tí ń jó koríko gbígbẹ, bí akọni ènìyàn tí a kójọ fún ogun.
6 Before his face shall the people tremble: all faces shall gather blackenesse.
Ní ojú wọn, àwọn ènìyàn yóò jẹ ìrora púpọ̀: gbogbo ojú ní yóò ṣú dudu.
7 They shall runne like strong men, and goe vp to the wall like men of warre, and euery man shall goe forward in his wayes, and they shall not stay in their paths.
Wọn yóò sáré bi àwọn alágbára; wọn yóò gùn odi bí ọkùnrin ológun; olúkúlùkù wọn yóò sì rìn lọ ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀, wọn kì yóò sì yà kúrò ni ọ̀nà wọn.
8 Neither shall one thrust another, but euery one shall walke in his path: and when they fall vpon the sword, they shall not be wounded.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹnìkan kì yóò kọlu ẹnìkejì rẹ̀; olúkúlùkù wọn yóò rìn ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀, nígbà tí wọn bá sì ṣubú lù idà wọn kì yóò gbọgbẹ́.
9 They shall runne to and from in the citie: they shall runne vpon the wall: they shall clime vp vpon the houses, and enter in at ye windowes like ye thiefe.
Wọn yóò sáré síwá sẹ́yìn ní ìlú; wọn yóò súré lórí odi, wọn yóò gùn orí ilé; wọn yóò gbà ojú fèrèsé wọ̀ inú ilé bí olè.
10 The earth shall tremble before him, ye heauens shall shake, the sunne and the moone shalbe darke, and the starres shall withdraw their shining,
Ayé yóò mì níwájú wọn; àwọn ọ̀run yóò wárìrì; oòrùn àti òṣùpá yóò ṣókùnkùn, àwọn ìràwọ̀ yóò sì fà ìmọ́lẹ̀ wọn sẹ́yìn.
11 And the Lord shall vtter his voyce before his hoste: for his hoste is very great: for he is strog that doeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible, and who can abide it?
Olúwa yóò sì bú ramúramù jáde níwájú ogun rẹ̀: nítorí ibùdó rẹ̀ tóbi gidigidi; nítorí alágbára ní òun, tí n mú ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ ṣẹ; nítorí ọjọ́ Olúwa tóbi ó sì ní ẹ̀rù gidigidi; ara ta ni ó lè gbà á?
12 Therefore also now the Lord sayth, Turne you vnto me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning,
“Ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà nísinsin yìí,” ni Olúwa wí, “Ẹ fi gbogbo ọkàn yín yípadà sí mi, àti pẹ̀lú àwẹ̀, àti pẹ̀lú ẹkún, àti pẹ̀lú ọ̀fọ̀.”
13 And rent your heart, and not your clothes: and turne vnto the Lord your God, for he is gratious, and mercifull, slowe to anger, and of great kindnes, and repenteth him of the euill.
Ẹ sì fa ọkàn yín ya, kì í sì í ṣe aṣọ yín, ẹ sì yípadà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, nítorí tí o pọ̀ ní oore-ọ̀fẹ́, ó sì kún fun àánú, ó lọ́ra láti bínú, ó sì ṣeun púpọ̀, ó sì ronúpìwàdà láti ṣe búburú.
14 Who knoweth, is he wil returne and repent and leaue a blessing behinde him, euen a meate offring, and a drinke offring vnto ye Lord your God?
Ta ni ó mọ̀ bí òun yóò yípadà, kí o sì ronúpìwàdà, kí ó sì fi ìbùkún sílẹ̀ lẹ́yìn rẹ̀— àní ọrẹ-jíjẹ àti ọrẹ mímu fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín?
15 Blowe the trumpet in Zion, sanctifie a fast, call a solemne assembly.
Ẹ fún ìpè ní Sioni, ẹ ya àwẹ̀ kan sí mímọ́, ẹ pe àjọ tí ó ni ìrònú.
16 Gather the people: sanctifie the congregation, gather the elders: assemble the children, and those that sucke the breastes: let the bridegrome go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her bride chamber.
Ẹ kó àwọn ènìyàn jọ, ẹ ya ìjọ sí mímọ́; ẹ pe àwọn àgbàgbà jọ, ẹ kó àwọn ọmọdé jọ, àti àwọn tí ń mú ọmú, jẹ kí ọkọ ìyàwó kúrò nínú ìyẹ̀wù rẹ̀. Kí ìyàwó sì kúrò nínú iyàrá rẹ̀.
17 Let the Priestes, the ministers of the Lord weepe betweene the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and giue not thine heritage into reproche that the heathen should rule ouer them. Wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
Jẹ́ kí àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa, sọkún láàrín ìloro àti pẹpẹ. Sí jẹ́ kí wọn wí pé, “Dá àwọn ènìyàn rẹ sí, Olúwa. Má sì ṣe fi ìní rẹ fun ẹ̀gàn, tí yóò sì di òwe ní àárín àwọn kèfèrí. Èéṣe tí wọn yóò fi wí láàrín àwọn ènìyàn pé, ‘Ọlọ́run wọn ha da?’”
18 Then will the Lord be ielous ouer his land, and spare his people.
Nígbà náà ní Olúwa yóò jowú fún ilẹ̀ rẹ̀, yóò sì káàánú fún ènìyàn rẹ̀.
19 Yea, the Lord wil answere and say vnto his people, Beholde, I will send you corne, and wine, and oyle, and you shalbe satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproche among the heathen,
Nítòótọ́, Olúwa yóò dá wọn lóhùn, yóò sì wí fun àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ pé: “Wò ó èmi yóò rán ọkà, àti ọtí wáìnì tuntun, àti òróró sí i yín, a ó sì fi wọn tẹ́ yín lọ́rùn; Èmi kì yóò sì fi yín ṣe ẹ̀gàn mọ́ láàrín àwọn aláìkọlà.
20 But I will remooue farre off from you the Northren armie, and I will driue him into a land, barren and desolate with his face toward the East sea, and his end to the vtmost sea, and his stinke shall come vp, and his corruption shall ascend, because he hath exalted himselfe to do this.
“Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò lé ogun àríwá jìnnà réré kúrò lọ́dọ̀ yín, èmi yóò sì lé e lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí ó ṣá, tí ó sì di ahoro, pẹ̀lú ojú rẹ̀ sí Òkun ìlà-oòrùn, àti ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sí ìwọ̀-oòrùn Òkun. Òórùn rẹ̀ yóò sì gòkè, òórùn búburú rẹ̀ yóò sì gòkè.” Nítòótọ́ ó ti ṣe ohun ńlá.
21 Feare not, O land, but be glad, and reioyce: for the Lord wil do great things.
Má bẹ̀rù, ìwọ ilẹ̀; jẹ́ kí inú rẹ̀ dùn kí o sì yọ̀, nítorí Olúwa ti ṣe ohun ńlá.
22 Be not afrayde, ye beastes of the fielde: for the pastures of the wildernesse are greene: for the tree beareth her fruite: the figge tree and the vine do giue their force.
Ẹ má bẹ̀rù, ẹranko igbó, nítorí pápá oko aginjù ń rú. Nítorí igi ń so èso rẹ̀, igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ àti àjàrà ń so èso ọ̀rọ̀ wọn.
23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and reioyce in the Lord your God: for he hath giuen you the rayne of righteousnes, he wil cause to come downe for you the rayne, euen the first raine, and the latter raine in the first moneth.
Ẹ jẹ́ kí inú yín dùn, ẹ̀yin ọmọ Sioni, ẹ sì yọ̀ nínú Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, nítorí ó ti fi àkọ́rọ̀ òjò fún yín bí ó ti tọ́, Òun ti mú kí òjò rọ̀ sílẹ̀ fún un yín, àkọ́rọ̀ àti àrọ̀kúrò òjò ní oṣù kìn-ín-ní.
24 And the barnes shalbe full of wheate, and the presses shall abound with wine and oyle.
Àwọn ilẹ̀ ìpakà yóò kún fún ọkà; àti ọpọ́n wọn nì yóò sàn jáde pẹ̀lú ọtí wáìnì tuntun àti òróró.
25 And I will render you the yeeres that the grashopper hath eaten, the canker worme and the caterpiller and the palmer worme, my great hoste which I sent among you.
“Èmi yóò sì mú ọdún wọ̀nyí ti eṣú jẹ run padà fún un yín. Èyí tí eṣú agénijẹ àti eṣú jewéjewé ọwọ́ eṣú agénijẹ àti kòkòrò ajẹnirun mìíràn ti fi jẹ àwọn ogun ńlá mi tí mo rán sí àárín yín.
26 So you shall eate and be satisfied and praise the Name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt marueilously with you: and my people shall neuer be ashamed.
Ẹ̀yin yóò ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ láti jẹ, títí ẹ̀yin yóò fi yó ẹ ó sì yín orúkọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, ẹni tí ó fi ìyanu bá yín lò; ojú kì yóò sì ti àwọn ènìyàn mi láéláé.
27 Ye shall also know, that I am in the middes of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God and none other, and my people shall neuer be ashamed.
Ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ̀ pé, èmi wà láàrín Israẹli, àti pé; Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, àti pé kò sí ẹlòmíràn, ojú kì yóò sì ti àwọn ènìyàn mí láéláé.
28 And afterward will I powre out my Spirit vpon all flesh: and your sonnes and your daughters shall prophecie: your olde men shall dreame dreames, and your yong men shall see visions,
“Yóò sì ṣe níkẹyìn ọjọ́, èmi yóò tú nínú Ẹ̀mí mí sí ara ènìyàn gbogbo; àwọn ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọ yín obìnrin yóò máa sọtẹ́lẹ̀, àwọn arúgbó yín yóò máa lá àlá, àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin yín yóò máa ríran.
29 And also vpon the seruants, and vpon the maydes in those dayes wil I powre my Spirit.
Àti pẹ̀lú sí ara àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ ọkùnrin, àti sí ara àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ obìnrin, ní èmi yóò tú ẹ̀mí mí jáde ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì.
30 And I will shewe wonders in the heauens and in the earth: blood and fire, and pillars of smoke.
Èmi yóò sì fi iṣẹ́ ìyanu hàn ní ọrun àti ní ayé, ẹ̀jẹ̀ àti iná, àti ọ̀wọ́n èéfín.
31 The sunne shalbe turned into darkenesse, and the moone into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.
A á sọ oòrùn di òkùnkùn, àti òṣùpá di ẹ̀jẹ̀, kí ọjọ́ ńlá àti ọjọ́ ẹ̀rù Olúwa tó dé.
32 But whosoeuer shall call on the Name of the Lord, shalbe saued: for in mount Zion, and in Ierusale shalbe deliuerance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant, whom the Lord shall call.
Yóò sí ṣe, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ba ké pè orúkọ Olúwa ní a ó gbàlà, nítorí ní òkè Sioni àti ní Jerusalẹmu ní ìgbàlà yóò gbé wà, bí Olúwa ti wí, àti nínú àwọn ìyókù tí Olúwa yóò pè.
