Jeremiah 26
1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word from the LORD, saying:
Ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀pẹ̀ ìjọba ọba Jehoiakimu ọmọ Josiah tí ń ṣe ọba Juda, ọ̀rọ̀ yìí wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa:
2 'Thus saith the LORD: Stand in the court of the LORD'S house, and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the LORD'S house, all the words that I command thee to speak unto them; diminish not a word.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, Dúró ní àgbàlá ilé Olúwa, kí o sì sọ fún gbogbo ènìyàn ilẹ̀ Juda tí ó ti wá láti wá jọ́sìn ní ilé Olúwa, sọ fún gbogbo ohun tí mo pàṣẹ fún ọ; má ṣaláìsọ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ náà.
3 It may be they will hearken, and turn every man from his evil way; that I may repent Me of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of their doings.
Bóyá gbogbo wọn máa gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ náà tí ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn yóò kúrò nínú ìwà búburú wọn. Èmi ó yí ọkàn padà, n kò sì ní fi ibi tí mo ti rò sí wọn ṣe wọ́n.
4 And thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith the LORD: If ye will not hearken to Me, to walk in My law, which I have set before you,
Sọ fún wọn wí pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: Tí ẹ kò bá fi etí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi, tí ẹ kò sì gbọ́ òfin mi, ti mo gbé kalẹ̀ níwájú yín,
5 to hearken to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I send unto you, even sending them betimes and often, but ye have not hearkened;
àti tí ẹ kò bá gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi, àwọn wòlíì tí mo rán sí i yín léraléra (ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò gbọ́),
6 then will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.'
nígbà náà ni èmi yóò ṣe ilé yìí bí Ṣilo, èmi yóò sì ṣe ìlú yìí ní ìfibú sí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé.’”
7 So the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the LORD.
Àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn wòlíì àti gbogbo ènìyàn ni ó gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Jeremiah tí ó sọ ní ilé Olúwa.
8 Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that the LORD had commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people laid hold on him, saying: 'Thou shalt surely die.
Ṣùgbọ́n ní kété tí Jeremiah ti parí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ tí Olúwa pàṣẹ láti sọ; àwọn àlùfáà, àti gbogbo ènìyàn dìímú, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Kíkú ni ìwọ yóò kú!
9 Why hast thou prophesied in the name of the LORD, saying: This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be desolate, without an inhabitant?' And all the people were gathered against Jeremiah in the house of the LORD.
Kí ló dé tí ìwọ ṣe sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní orúkọ Olúwa pé, ilé yìí yóò dàbí Ṣilo, orílẹ̀-èdè yìí yóò sì di ahoro tí kì yóò ní olùgbé.” Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì kójọpọ̀ pẹ̀lú Jeremiah nínú ilé Olúwa.
10 When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king's house unto the house of the LORD; and they sat in the entry of the new gate of the LORD'S house.
Nígbà tí àwọn aláṣẹ Juda gbọ́ nípa nǹkan wọ̀nyí, wọ́n lọ láti ààfin ọba sí ilé Olúwa, wọ́n sì mú ààyè wọn, wọ́n jókòó ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà tuntun ilé Olúwa.
11 Then spoke the priests and the prophets unto the princes and to all the people, saying: 'This man is worthy of death; for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.'
Àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn wòlíì sọ fún àwọn aláṣẹ àti gbogbo ènìyàn pé, “Arákùnrin yìí gbọdọ̀ gba ìdájọ́ ikú nítorí pé ó sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ lórí ìlú yìí: bí ẹ̀yin ti fi etí yín gbọ́!”
12 Then spoke Jeremiah unto all the princes and to all the people, saying: 'The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that ye have heard.
Nígbà náà ni Jeremiah sọ fún gbogbo àwọn aláṣẹ àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn wí pé: “Olúwa rán mi láti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní ilé yìí àti ìlú yìí, gbogbo ohun tí ẹ ti gbọ́.
13 Therefore now amend your ways and your doings, and hearken to the voice of the LORD your God; and the LORD will repent Him of the evil that He hath pronounced against you.
Nísinsin yìí, tún ọ̀nà rẹ ṣe àti ìṣe rẹ, kí ẹ sì gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín. Olúwa yóò yí ọkàn rẹ̀ padà, kò sì ní mú ohun gbogbo tí ó ti sọ jáde ní búburú ṣẹ lórí yín.
14 But as for me, behold, I am in your hand; do with me as is good and right in your eyes.
Bí ó bá ṣe tèmi ni, èmi wà ní ọwọ́ yín, ẹ ṣe ohun tí ẹ̀yin bá rò pé ó dára, tí ó sì tọ́ lójú yín fún mi.
15 Only know ye for certain that, if ye put me to death, ye will bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon the inhabitants thereof; for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to speak all these words in your ears.'
Ẹ mọ̀ dájú pé tí ẹ bá pa mí, ẹ ó mú ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ wá sórí ara yín, sórí ìlú yìí àti àwọn olùgbé inú rẹ̀; nítorí pé nítòótọ́ ni Olúwa ti rán mi láti sọ ọ̀rọ̀ yìí fún un yín.”
16 Then said the princes and all the people unto the priests and to the prophets: 'This man is not worthy of death; for he hath spoken to us in the name of the LORD our God.'
Nígbà náà ni àwọn aláṣẹ àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sọ fún àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn wòlíì pé, “Ẹ má ṣe pa ọkùnrin yìí nítorí ó ti bá wa sọ̀rọ̀ ní orúkọ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun.”
17 Then rose up certain of the elders of the land, and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying:
Lára àwọn àgbàgbà ilẹ̀ náà sì sún síwájú, wọ́n sì sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà wí pé,
18 'Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Zion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.
“Mika ti Moreṣeti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ Hesekiah ọba Juda. Ó sọ fún gbogbo ènìyàn Juda pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “‘A ó sì fa Sioni tu bí oko Jerusalẹmu yóò di òkìtì àlàpà àti òkè ilẹ̀ yìí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ibi gíga igbó.’
19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him at all to death? did he not fear the LORD, and entreat the favour of the LORD, and the LORD repented Him of the evil which He had pronounced against them? Thus might we procure great evil against our own souls.'
Ǹjẹ́ Hesekiah ọba Juda tàbí ẹnikẹ́ni ní Juda pa á bí? Ǹjẹ́ Hesekiah kò bẹ̀rù Olúwa tí ó sì wá ojúrere rẹ̀? Ǹjẹ́ Olúwa kò ha a sì yí ìpinnu rẹ̀ padà, tí kò sì mú ibi tí ó ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ yẹ̀ kúrò lórí wọn? Ibi ni a fẹ́ mú wá sórí ara wa yìí.”
20 And there was also a man that prophesied in the name of the LORD, Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath-jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah;
(Bákan náà Uriah ọmọ Ṣemaiah láti Kiriati-Jearimu jẹ́ ọkùnrin mìíràn tí ó sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ kan náà ní orúkọ Olúwa. Ó sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ kan náà sí ìlú náà àti ilẹ̀ yín bí Jeremiah ti ṣe.
21 and when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men, and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt;
Nígbà tí ọba Jehoiakimu àti gbogbo àwọn aláṣẹ gbọ́ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, ọba ń wá láti pa á: ṣùgbọ́n Uriah gbọ́ èyí, ẹ̀rù bà á, ó sì sálọ sí Ejibiti.
22 and Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, Elnathan the son of Achbor, and certain men with him, into Egypt;
Ọba Jehoiakimu rán Elnatani ọmọ Akbori lọ sí Ejibiti pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin mìíràn.
23 and they fetched forth Uriah out of Egypt, and brought him unto Jehoiakim the king; who slew him with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of the children of the people.
Wọ́n sì mú Uriah láti Ejibiti lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba Jehoiakimu; ẹni tí ó fi idà pa, ó sì sọ òkú rẹ̀ sí inú isà òkú àwọn ènìyàn lásán.)
24 Nevertheless the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, that they should not give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.
Ahikamu ọmọ Ṣafani ń bẹ pẹ̀lú Jeremiah, wọn kò sì fi í lé àwọn ènìyàn lọ́wọ́ láti pa á.
