Jeremiah 15

1 THEN said the Lord unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.

Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún mi pé: “Kódà kí Mose àti Samuẹli dúró níwájú mi, ọkàn mi kì yóò lọ sọ́dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí. Mú wọn kúrò níwájú mi! Jẹ́ kí wọn ó lọ!

2 And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the Lord; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.

Tí wọ́n bá sì bi ọ́ pé, ‘Níbo ni kí a lọ?’ Sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “‘Àwọn tí a kọ ikú mọ́, sí ikú; àwọn tí a kọ idà mọ́, sí idà; àwọn tí a kọ ìyàn mọ́, sí ìyàn; àwọn tí a kọ ìgbèkùn mọ́ sí ìgbèkùn.’

3 And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the Lord: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.

“Èmi yóò rán oríṣìí ìjìyà mẹ́rin láti kọlù wọ́n,” ni Olúwa wí, “Idà láti pa, àwọn ajá láti wọ́ wọn lọ, àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run àti àwọn ẹranko orí ilẹ̀ láti jẹ àti láti parun.

4 And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.

N ó sọ wọ́n di ẹni ìkórìíra níwájú gbogbo ìjọba ayé torí ohun tí Manase ọmọ Hesekiah ọba Juda ṣe ní Jerusalẹmu.

5 For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?

“Ta ni yóò ṣàánú rẹ, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu? Ta ni yóò dárò rẹ? Ta ni yóò dúró béèrè àlàáfíà rẹ?

6 Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.

O ti kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “Ìwọ sì wà nínú ìpadàsẹ́yìn. Nítorí náà, Èmi yóò dáwọ́lé ọ, èmi ó sì pa ọ́ run, Èmi kò sì ní fi ojú àánú wò ọ́ mọ́.

7 And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people, since they return not from their ways.

Èmi kò tún lè fi ìfẹ́ hàn si ọ, Èmi yóò fi àtẹ fẹ́ wọn sí ẹnu-ọ̀nà ìlú náà. Èmi yóò mú ìṣọ̀fọ̀ àti ìparun bá àwọn ènìyàn mi nítorí pé wọn kò tí ì yípadà kúrò lọ́nà wọn.

8 Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.

Èmi yóò jẹ́ kí àwọn opó wọn pọ̀ ju yanrìn Òkun lọ. Ní ọjọ́-kanrí ni èmi ó mú apanirun kọlu àwọn ìyá ọmọkùnrin wọn. Lójijì ni èmi yóò mú ìfòyà àti ìbẹ̀rù bá wọn.

9 She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the Lord.

Ìyá ọlọ́mọ méje yóò dákú, yóò sì mí ìmí ìgbẹ̀yìn. Òòrùn rẹ yóò wọ̀ lọ́sàn án gangan, yóò di ẹni ẹ̀tẹ́ òun àbùkù. Èmi yóò fi àwọn tí ó bá yè síwájú àwọn ọ̀tá wọn tí idà wà lọ́wọ́ wọn,” ni Olúwa wí.

10 Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them doth curse me.

Háà! Ó ṣe tí ìyá mi bí mi, ọkùnrin tí gbogbo ilẹ̀ dojúkọ tí wọ́n sì bá jà! Èmi kò wínni, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò yá lọ́wọ́ ẹnikẹ́ni, síbẹ̀, gbogbo ènìyàn ló ń fi mí ré.

11 The Lord said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.

Olúwa sọ pé, “Dájúdájú èmi ò dá ọ sí fún ìdí kan pàtó; dájúdájú mo mú kí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ tẹríba níwájú rẹ nígbà ibi àti ìpọ́njú.

12 Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?

“Ǹjẹ́ ẹnìkan lè fi ọwọ́ ṣẹ́ irin irin láti àríwá tàbí idẹ?

13 Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and that for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.

“Gbogbo ọlá àti ìṣúra rẹ ni èmi ó fi sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìkógun láìgba nǹkan kan nítorí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ jákèjádò orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ.

14 And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burn upon you.

Èmi yóò fi ọ́ ṣẹrú fún àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ ní ìlú tí ìwọ kò mọ̀ nítorí ìbínú mi yóò rán iná tí yóò jó ọ.”

15 O Lord, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.

Ó yé ọ, ìwọ Olúwa; rántí mi kí o sì ṣe ìtọ́jú mi. Gbẹ̀san mi lára àwọn tó dìtẹ̀ mi. Ìwọ ti jìyà fún ìgbà pípẹ́, má ṣe mú mi lọ; nínú bí mo ṣe jìyà nítorí tìrẹ.

16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.

Nígbà tí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ dé, mo jẹ wọ́n, àwọn ni ìdùnnú àti ayọ̀ ọkàn mi, nítorí pé orúkọ rẹ ni a fi ń pè mí, Ìwọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára.

17 I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.

Èmi kò fìgbà kan jókòó láàrín àwọn ẹlẹ́gàn, n ko bá wọn yọ ayọ̀ pọ̀; mo dá jókòó torí pé ọwọ́ rẹ wà lára mi, ìwọ sì ti fi ìbínú rẹ kún inú mi.

18 Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?

Èéṣe tí ìrora mi kò lópin, tí ọgbẹ́ mi kò sì ṣe é wòsàn? Ní òtítọ́ ìwọ yóò dàbí kànga ẹ̀tàn sí mi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìsun tó kọ̀ tí kò sun?

19 Therefore thus saith the Lord, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.

Nítorí náà báyìí ni Olúwa wí, “Tí o bá ronúpìwàdà, Èmi ó dá ọ padà wá kí o lè máa sìn mí; tí ó bá sọ ọ̀rọ̀ tó dára, ìwọ yóò di agbẹnusọ mi. Jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn yìí kọjú sí ọ; ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ kọjú sí wọn.

20 And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the Lord.

Èmi fi ọ́ ṣe odi idẹ tí ó lágbára, sí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí; wọn ó bá ọ jà ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò ní lè borí rẹ, nítorí pé, mo wà pẹ̀lú rẹ láti gbà ọ́ là, kí n sì dáàbò bò ọ́,” ni Olúwa wí.

21 And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.

“Èmi yóò gbà ọ́ sílẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ àwọn ìkà ènìyàn, Èmi yóò sì rà ọ́ padà kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ẹni búburú.”
