Jeremiah 8
1 At that time, saith the LORD, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves;
“‘Ní ìgbà náà ni Olúwa wí pé, wọn yóò mú egungun àwọn ọba Juda àti egungun àwọn ìjòyè, egungun àwọn àlùfáà àti egungun àwọn wòlíì àti egungun àwọn olùgbé Jerusalẹmu kúrò nínú ibojì.
2 and they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped; they shall not be gathered, nor be buried, they shall be for dung upon the face of the earth.

3 And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue that remain of this evil family, that remain in all the places whither I have driven them, saith the LORD of hosts.
Níbikíbi tí mo bá lé wọn lọ, gbogbo àwọn ìyókù wọn yóò fẹ́ ikú ju ìyè lọ ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.’
4 Moreover thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith the LORD: Do men fall, and not rise up again? Doth one turn away, and not return?
“Wí fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “‘Bí ènìyàn bá ṣubú lulẹ̀, wọn kì í padà dìde bí? Nígbà tí ènìyàn bá yà kúrò ní ọ̀nà rẹ, kì í yí padà bí?
5 Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? They hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.
Èéṣe nígbà náà àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí fi yà kúrò lọ́nà rẹ̀? Kí ló dé tí Jerusalẹmu fi yà kúrò ní gbogbo ìgbà? Wọ́n rọ̀ mọ́ ẹ̀tàn; wọ́n kọ̀ láti yípadà.
6 I attended and listened, but they spoke not aright; no man repenteth him of his wickedness, saying: 'What have I done?' Every one turneth away in his course, as a horse that rusheth headlong in the battle.
Mo ti fetísílẹ̀ dáradára, wọn kò sọ ohun tí ó tọ́. Kò sí ẹnìkan tó ronúpìwàdà nínú ìwà búburú rẹ̀, kí ó wí pé, “Kí ni mo ṣe?” Olúkúlùkù ń tọ ọ̀nà rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹṣin tó ń lọ sójú ogun.
7 Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the swallow and the crane observe the time of their coming; but My people know not the ordinance of the LORD.

8 How do ye say: 'We are wise, and the Law of the LORD is with us'? Lo, certainly in vain hath wrought the vain pen of the scribes.
“‘Báwo ni ẹ̀yin ṣe lè wí pé, “Àwa gbọ́n, nítorí a ní òfin Olúwa,” nígbà tí ó jẹ́ pé kálámù èké àwọn akọ̀wé ti àwọn sọ ọ́ di ẹ̀tàn.
9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken; Lo, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?
Ojú yóò ti àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n, a ó dà wọ́n láàmú, wọn yóò sì kó sí ìgbèkùn. Nítorí wọ́n ti kọ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, irú ọgbọ́n wo ló kù tí wọ́n ní?
10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that shall possess them; for from the least even unto the greatest every one is greedy for gain, from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.
Nítorí náà, èmi yóò fi ìyàwó wọn fún àwọn ọkùnrin mìíràn àti ilẹ̀ wọn fún àwọn ẹlòmíràn. Láti èyí tó kéré jù dé èyí tó dàgbà jù, gbogbo wọn ni èrè àjẹjù ń jẹ lógún; àwọn wòlíì àti àwọn àlùfáà pẹ̀lú ń hùwà ẹ̀tàn.
11 And they have healed the hurt of the daughter of My people lightly, saying: 'Peace, peace', when there is no peace.

12 They shall be put to shame because they have committed abomination; yea, they are not at all ashamed, neither know they how to blush; therefore shall they fall among them that fall, in the time of their visitation they shall stumble, saith the LORD.

13 I will utterly consume them, saith the LORD; there are no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig-tree, and the leaf is faded; and I gave them that which they transgress.
“‘Èmi yóò mú ìkórè wọn kúrò, ni Olúwa wí. Kì yóò sí èso lórí igi àjàrà. Kì yóò sí ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ lórí igi, ewé wọn yóò sì rẹ̀ sílẹ̀. Ohun tí mo ti fi fún wọn ni à ó gbà kúrò.’”
14 'Why do we sit still? Assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fortified cities, and let us be cut off there; for the LORD our God hath cut us off, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against the LORD.
“Èéṣe tí àwa fi jókòó ní ibí yìí? A kó ara wa jọ! Jẹ́ kí a sálọ sí ìlú olódi kí a sì ṣègbé síbẹ̀. Nítorí tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ti pinnu pé a ó ṣègbé. Yóò sì fún wa ní omi onímájèlé mu, nítorí àwa ti ṣẹ̀ sí i.
15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and behold terror!'

16 The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan; at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones the whole land trembleth; for they are come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it, the city and those that dwell therein.
Ìró ìfọn imú ẹṣin àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ là ń gbọ́ láti Dani, yíyan àwọn akọ ẹṣin mú gbogbo ilẹ̀ wárìrì. Wọ́n wá láti pa ilẹ̀ náà run, gbogbo ohun tó wà níbẹ̀, ìlú náà àti gbogbo olùgbé ibẹ̀.
17 For, behold, I will send serpents, basilisks, among you, which will not be charmed; and they shall bite you, saith the LORD.
“Wò ó, èmi yóò rán àwọn ejò olóró sí àárín yín, paramọ́lẹ̀ tí ẹ kò lè pa oró wọn, yóò sì bù yín jẹ,” ni Olúwa wí.
18 Though I would take comfort against sorrow, my heart is faint within me.
Olùtùnú mi, nígbà tí ìbànújẹ́ ọkàn mi, rẹ̀wẹ̀sì nínú mi.
19 Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people from a land far off: 'Is not the LORD in Zion? Is not her King in her?' — 'Why have they provoked Me with their graven images, and with strange vanities?' —
Fetí sí ẹkún àwọn ènìyàn mi láti ilẹ̀ jíjìnnà wá: “Olúwa kò ha sí ní Sioni bí? Ọba rẹ̀ kò sí níbẹ̀ mọ́ ni?” “Èéṣe tí wọ́n fi mú mi bínú pẹ̀lú ère wọn, pẹ̀lú àwọn òrìṣà àjèjì tí wọn kò níláárí?”
20 'The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.'
“Ìkórè ti rékọjá, ìgbà ẹ̀ẹ̀rùn ti parí, síbẹ̀ a kò gbà wá là.”
21 For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I seized with anguish; I am black, appalment hath taken hold on me.
Níwọ́n ìgbà tí a pa àwọn ènìyàn mi run, èmi náà run pẹ̀lú, èmi ṣọ̀fọ̀, ìrora sì mú mi káká.
22 Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
Kò ha sí ìkunra ní Gileadi bí? Kò ha sí àwọn oníṣègùn níbẹ̀? Kí ló ha dé tí kò fi sí ìwòsàn fún ọgbẹ́ àwọn ènìyàn mi?
