Jeremiah 33
1 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the guard, saying:
Mgbe Jeremaya ka nọ dịka onye mkpọrọ nʼogige ụlọ ndị nche, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru ya ntị nke ugboro abụọ, sị ya,
2 Thus saith the LORD the Maker thereof, the LORD that formed it to establish it, the LORD is His name:
“Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, onye ahụ kere ụwa kwuru, Onyenwe anyị, onye kpụrụ ya mee ya ka o guzosie ike, Onye aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị:
3 Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and will tell thee great things, and hidden, which thou knowest not.
‘Kpọkuo m, aga m aza gị, gosi gị ihe dị ukwuu dị iche iche, na ihe siri ike na nghọta nke ị na-amaghị.’
4 For thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down for mounds, and for ramparts;
Nʼihi na nke a bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke Izrel, kwuru banyere ụlọ ndị ahụ niile dị nʼobodo, na ụlọeze niile nke ndị eze Juda, bụ nke akwadara maka iji megide nnọchibido niile na mma agha
5 whereon they come to fight with the Chaldeans, even to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in Mine anger and in My fury, and for all whose wickedness I have hid My face from this city:
nʼagha a na-alụso ndị Babilọn. ‘Aga eji ozu ndị mmadụ ahụ niile m ga-etigbu site nʼiwe m na nʼọnụma m kpojuo ha. Aga m ezo ihu m site nʼebe obodo a nọ, nʼihi ajọ omume ya niile.
6 Behold, I will bring it healing and cure, and I will cure them; and I will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.
“‘Ma otu ọ dị, aga m agwọ ya, mee ka ahụ sie ya ike. Aga m agwọ ndị m, meekwa ka ha nwe udo nʼebe ọ bara ụba. Ha ga-ebikwa nʼudo na-enweghị egwu ọbụla.
7 And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.
Aga m emekwa ka ndị Izrel na ndị Juda a dọtara nʼagha lọta. Aga m ewugharịkwa ha dịka ụlọ, mee ka ha dịrị ka ha dị na mbụ.
8 And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against Me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned against Me, and whereby they have transgressed against Me.
Aga m eme ka ha dị ọcha site na mmehie ha niile, nke ha mere megide m. Aga m agbaghara ha mmehie ha na nnupu isi ha niile megide m.
9 And this city shall be to Me for a name of joy, for a praise and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them, and shall fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I procure unto it.
Mgbe ahụ, obodo a ga-aghọkwa ihe ga-eme ka mba niile nke ụwa mara m, ka ha ṅụrịa ọṅụ nʼime m, tookwa m, ma wetara m nsọpụrụ, mgbe ha ga-anụ ihe ọma niile m meere obodo a. Ha ga-atụkwa oke egwu, maakwa jijiji, nʼihi ezi ihe ahụ niile na nʼihi udo ahụ niile nke mụ onwe m mere ka o rute ha aka.’
10 Thus saith the LORD: Yet again there shall be heard in this place, whereof ye say: It is waste, without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beast,
“Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Unu na-asị banyere ebe a, “Ọ bụ mkpọmkpọ ebe, ebe ụmụ mmadụ na ụmụ anụmanụ na-ebighị nʼime ya.” Ma nʼobodo Juda, ya na okporoụzọ niile dị na Jerusalem, nke tọgbọrọ nʼefu ugbu a, nke mmadụ maọbụ anụmanụ na-ebighị nʼime ya, a ga-emesịa nụkwa
11 the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that say: 'Give thanks to the LORD of hosts, for the LORD is good, for His mercy endureth for ever', even of them that bring offerings of thanksgiving into the house of the LORD. For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first, saith the LORD.
olu ọṅụ na obi ụtọ, na olu ndị ikom na ndị inyom na-alụ di na nwunye, na olu ndị ahụ niile na-eweta onyinye ekele nʼụlọ Onyenwe anyị, ndị ahụ ga-asị, “‘“Nyenụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ekele nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị dị mma. Ịhụnanya ya na-adịgidekwa ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.” Nʼihi na aga m eme ka ndị ala a, nke a dọtara nʼagha lọta, dịkwa ka ha dị na mbụ,’ otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
12 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Yet again shall there be in this place, which is waste, without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
“Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, ‘Nʼebe a, nke bụ mkpọmkpọ ebe ugbu a, nke mmadụ maọbụ anụmanụ na-ebighị nʼime ya, ka a ga-emesịa nweekwa ebe ịta nri nke igwe ewu na atụrụ, nʼime obodo niile, ebe ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ ga-eduru igwe ewu na atụrụ ha gaa izuike.
13 In the cities of the hill-country, in the cities of the Lowland, and in the cities of the South, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks again pass under the hands of him that counteth them, saith the LORD.
Nʼime obodo niile nke dị nʼala ugwu ugwu, na nʼobodo niile nke dị na mgbada ugwu niile nke Negev, nʼoke ala Benjamin, nʼime obodo nta niile nke gbara Jerusalem gburugburu, na nʼime obodo niile nke Juda. Igwe ewu na atụrụ ga-agabigakwa ọzọ nʼokpuru aka abụọ nke onye na-agụ ha ọnụ.’ Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu.
14 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
“‘Ụbọchị ndị ahụ na-abịa,’ ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, ‘mgbe m ga-emezu ezi nkwa ahụ m kwere ụlọ Izrel na ụlọ Juda.
15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause a shoot of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
“‘Nʼụbọchị ndị ahụ, na nʼoge ahụ, aga m eme ka Alaka ezi omume pupụta site nʼezinaụlọ Devid. Ọ ga-eme ihe ziri ezi, kpeekwa ikpe ziri ezi nʼala ahụ.
16 In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely; and this is the name whereby she shall be called, the LORD is our righteousness.
Nʼụbọchị ndị ahụ, ka a ga-azọpụta Juda, Jerusalem ga-ebikwa nʼudo. Nke a bụ aha a ga-akpọ ya, Onyenwe anyị Onye Nzọpụta, bụ ezi omume anyị.’
17 For thus saith the LORD: There shall not be cut off unto David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;
Nʼihi na ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘O nweghị oge a ga-ahapụ inweta otu onye site nʼezinaụlọ Devid onye ga-anọ nʼocheeze ụlọ Izrel.
18 neither shall there be cut off unto the priests the Levites a man before Me to offer burnt-offerings, and to burn meal-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
Ọ dịkwaghị mgbe a ga-ahapụ inweta onye ga-esite nʼetiti ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị, nke ga-eguzo nʼihu m ụbọchị niile ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ, na i wetara m onyinye ịnata ihuọma, na ịchụrụ m aja dị iche iche.’”
19 And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying:
Emesịa, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Jeremaya ntị sị ya,
20 Thus saith the LORD: If ye can break My covenant with the day, and My covenant with the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season;
“Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Ọ bụrụ na unu nwere ike ime ka ọgbụgba ndụ m na ehihie, na ọgbụgba ndụ mụ na abalị ghara ịdịkwa, ime ka ehihie na abalị gharakwa ịpụta nʼoge ha,
21 Then may also My covenant be broken with David My servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
mgbe ahụ ọgbụgba ndụ nke mụ na Devid ohu m gbara, na ọgbụgba ndụ nke m mere ka ọ dịrị nʼetiti mụ na ndị Livayị, bụ ndị nchụaja na-eje ozi ha nʼihu m, agaghị adịkwa. A gaghị enwekwa onye ga-esi nʼezinaụlọ Devid nke ga-anọkwasị nʼocheeze ya.
22 As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me.
Aga m eme ka ụmụ ụmụ Devid ohu m, na ndị Livayị, bụ ndị na-eje ozi ha nʼihu m, dị ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ dịka kpakpando dị na mbara eluigwe; ha ga-adịkwa ukwuu dịka uzuzu dị nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri nke a na-apụghị ịgụta ọnụ.’”
23 And the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying:
Okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Jeremaya ntị sị ya,
24 'Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying: The two families which the LORD did choose, He hath cast them off? and they contemn My people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
“Ị hụla ajụjụ ndị a na-ajụ? Ha na-ajụ na-asị, ‘Onyenwe anyị ọ jụla agbụrụ abụọ ndị a ọ họpụtara?’ Nʼihi ya, ha na-elelị ndị m, ha adịghị agụkwa ha dịka mba.
25 Thus saith the LORD: If My covenant be not with day and night, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Ọ bụrụ na m emeghị ka ọgbụgba ndụ dịrị nʼetiti mụ na ehihie na abalị, meekwa ka iwu na-achị eluigwe na ụwa guzosie ike,
26 then will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David My servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have compassion on them.'
mgbe ahụ, agaara m ajụ ụmụ ụmụ Jekọb, na ụmụ ụmụ Devid ohu m. Agaraghị m ahọpụta otu nʼime ụmụ ya ka ọ chịa ụmụ ụmụ Ebraham na Aịzik na Jekọb. Ma aga m eme ka ndị ha a dọtara nʼagha lọta; aga m enwekwa obi ebere nʼahụ ha.’”
