Jeremiah 46
1 The word of Yhwh which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó tọ Jeremiah wòlíì wá nípa àwọn Orílẹ̀-èdè.
2 Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaoh–necho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.
Nípa Ejibiti. Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ nípa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao Neko ọba Ejibiti ẹni tí a borí rẹ̀ ní Karkemiṣi, ní odò Eufurate láti ọwọ́ Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli ní ọdún kẹrin Jehoiakimu ọmọ Josiah ọba Juda:
3 Order ye the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
“Ẹ múra àpáta, èyí tí ó tóbi, àti èyí tí ó kéré, kí ẹ sì súnmọ́ ojú ìjà!
4 Harness the horses; and get up, ye horsemen, and stand forth with your helmets; furbish the spears, and put on the brigandines.
Ẹ di ẹṣin ní gàárì, kí ẹ sì gùn ún. Ẹ dúró lẹ́sẹẹsẹ pẹ̀lú àṣíborí yín! Ẹ dán ọ̀kọ̀ yín, kí ẹ sì wọ ẹ̀wù irin.
5 Wherefore have I seen them dismayed and turned away back? and their mighty ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: for fear was round about, saith Yhwh.
Kí ni nǹkan tí mo tún rí? Wọ́n bẹ̀rù, wọ́n sì ń padà sẹ́yìn, wọ́n ti ṣẹ́gun àwọn jagunjagun. Wọ́n sá, wọn kò sì bojú wẹ̀yìn, ìbẹ̀rù sì wà níbi gbogbo,” ni Olúwa wí.
6 Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.
“Ẹni tí ó yára kì yóò le sálọ, tàbí alágbára kò ní lè sá àsálà. Ní àríwá ní ibi odò Eufurate wọn yóò kọsẹ̀, wọn yóò sì ṣubú.
7 Who is this that cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
“Ta ni èyí tí ó gòkè wá bí odò Ejibiti, tí omi rẹ̀ ń ru gẹ́gẹ́ bí odò wọ̀n-ọn-nì?
8 Egypt riseth up like a flood, and his waters are moved like the rivers; and he saith, I will go up, and will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.
Ejibiti dìde bí odò náà, bí omi odò tí ń ru. Ó sì wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò dìde, n ó sì bo gbogbo ilẹ̀ ayé.’ Èmi yóò pa ìlú àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ run.
9 Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.
Ẹ gòkè wá ẹ̀yin ẹṣin, ẹ sì sáré kíkankíkan ẹ̀yin kẹ̀kẹ́. Kí àwọn alágbára túbọ̀ tẹ̀síwájú, àwọn ará Kuṣi àti àwọn ará Puti tí ń di asà mú; àti àwọn ará Lidia tí ń fa ọrun.
10 For this is the day of the Lord Yhwh of Armies, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Lord Yhwh of Armies hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọjọ́ náà jẹ́ ti Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, ọjọ́ ìgbẹ̀san, ìgbẹ̀san lára àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀. Idà yóò sì jẹ́ títí yóò fi ní ìtẹ́lọ́rùn, títí yóò fi pa òǹgbẹ rẹ̀ rẹ́ pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀. Nítorí pé Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun yóò rú ẹbọ ní ilẹ̀ gúúsù ní odò Eufurate.
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.
“Gòkè lọ sí Gileadi, kí o sì mú ìkunra, ìwọ wúńdíá ọmọbìnrin Ejibiti. Ṣùgbọ́n ní asán ni ìwọ ń lo oògùn, kì yóò sí ìwòsàn fún ọ.
12 The nations have heard of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled the land: for the mighty man hath stumbled against the mighty, and they are fallen both together.
Àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yóò gbọ́ nípa ìtìjú rẹ, igbe rẹ yóò kún gbogbo ayé. Jagunjagun yóò máa ṣubú lu ara wọn lórí rẹ, àwọn méjèèjì yóò sì jọ ṣubú papọ̀.”
13 The word that Yhwh spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt.
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó bá Jeremiah wòlíì nì sọ nípa wíwá Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli láti lọ dojú ìjà kọ Ejibiti:
14 Declare ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in Tahpanhes: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword shall devour round about thee.
“Kéde èyí ní Ejibiti, sì sọ ọ́ ní Migdoli, sọ ọ́ ní Memfisi àti Tafanesi: ‘Dúró sí ààyè rẹ kí o sì múra sílẹ̀, nítorí pé idà náà ń pa àwọn tí ó yí ọ ká.’
15 Why are thy valiant men swept away? they stood not, because Yhwh did drive them.
Èéṣe tí àwọn akọni rẹ fi ṣubú? Wọn kò ní le dìde dúró, nítorí Olúwa yóò tì wọ́n ṣubú.
16 He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.
Wọn yóò máa ṣubú léraléra wọn yóò máa ṣubú lu ara wọn. Wọn yóò sọ wí pé, ‘Ẹ dìde, ẹ jẹ́ kí a padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn wa àti ilẹ̀ ìbí wa, kúrò níbi idà àwọn aninilára.’
17 They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath passed the time appointed.
Níbẹ̀ ni wọn ó kígbe pé, ‘Ariwo lásán ni Farao ọba Ejibiti pa, ó ti sọ àǹfààní rẹ̀ nù.’
18 As I live, saith the King, whose name is Yhwh of Armies, Surely as Tabor is among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
“Bí èmi ti wà láààyè,” ni ọba, ẹni tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí pé, “Nítòótọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí Tabori láàrín àwọn òkè àti gẹ́gẹ́ bi Karmeli lẹ́bàá Òkun bẹ́ẹ̀ ni òun yóò dé.
19 O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.
Ìwọ, ọmọbìnrin ti ń gbé Ejibiti pèsè ohun èlò ìrìnàjò fún ara rẹ nítorí Memfisi yóò di ahoro a ó sì fi jóná, láìní olùgbé.
20 Egypt is like a very fair heifer, but destruction cometh; it cometh out of the north.
“Ẹgbọrọ abo màlúù tó lẹ́wà ní Ejibiti ṣùgbọ́n eṣinṣin ìparun dé, ó dé láti àríwá.
21 Also her hired men are in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, and are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, and the time of their visitation.
Àwọn jagunjagun rẹ̀ dàbí àbọ́pa akọ màlúù. Àwọn pẹ̀lú yóò yípadà, wọn ó sì jùmọ̀ sá, wọn kò ní le dúró, nítorí tí ọjọ́ ibi ń bọ̀ lórí wọn àsìkò láti jẹ wọ́n ní ìyà.
22 The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
Ejibiti yóò pòṣé bí ejò tí ń sá bí ọmọ-ogun ṣe ń tọ̀ ọ́ wá pẹ̀lú agbára. Wọn ó tọ̀ ọ́ wá pẹ̀lú àáké, gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti agégi.
23 They shall cut down her forest, saith Yhwh, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and are innumerable.
Wọn o gé igbó rẹ̀ lulẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “nítorí ti a kò le rídìí rẹ̀. Nítorí pé wọ́n pọ̀ ju ẹlẹ́ǹgà lọ, wọ́n sì jẹ́ àìníye.
24 The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
A ó dójútì ọmọbìnrin Ejibiti, a ó fà á lé ọwọ́ àwọn ènìyàn àríwá.”
25 Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that trust in him:
Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí pé: “Èmi yóò rọ̀jò ìyà mi sórí Amoni òrìṣà Tebesi, sórí Farao, sórí Ejibiti àti àwọn òrìṣà rẹ̀ àti sórí àwọn ọba rẹ̀ àti sórí àwọn tó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Farao.
26 And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith Yhwh.
Èmi ó sì fi wọ́n lé àwọn tó wá ẹ̀mí wọn lọ́wọ́, lé Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli, ṣùgbọ́n lẹ́yìn ìgbà díẹ̀, Ejibiti yóò sì di gbígbé bí i ti àtijọ́,” ni Olúwa wí.
27 But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.
“Má bẹ̀rù, ìwọ Jakọbu ìránṣẹ́ mi, má fòyà, ìwọ Israẹli. Dájúdájú èmi ó gbà ọ́ láti ọ̀nà jíjìn, àwọn ọmọ ọmọ rẹ ní ilẹ̀ ìgbèkùn. Jakọbu yóò tún ní àlàáfíà àti ààbò, kò sì ṣí ẹni tí yóò dẹ́rùbà á.
28 Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith Yhwh: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.
Má bẹ̀rù, Jakọbu ìránṣẹ́ mi, nítorí pé mo wà pẹ̀lú rẹ,” bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa wí. “Bí mo tilẹ̀ pa gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè run, láàrín àwọn tí mo fọ́n yín ká sí. Èmi kò ní run yín tán. Èmi yóò jẹ ọ́ ní ìyà lórí òdodo, èmi kí yóò jọ̀wọ́ rẹ lọ́wọ́ lọ láìjẹ ọ́ ní yà.”
