Jeremias 27
1 THE WORD OF THE LORD WHICH HE SPOKE AGAINST BABYLON.
Sa sinugdan sa paghari ni Joacim ang anak nga lalake ni Joasias, nga hari sa Juda, midangat kining pulonga kang Jeremias gikan kang Jehova, nga nagaingon:
2 Proclaim you among the Gentiles, and cause the tidings to be heard, and suppress [them] not: say you, Babylon is taken, Belus is confounded; the fearless, the luxurious Maerodach is delivered up.
Mao kini ang giingon ni Jehova kanako: Magbuhat ka ug mga talikala ug mga yugo, ug ibutang sila sa imong liog;
3 For a nation has come up against her from the north, he shall utterly ravage her land, and there shall be none to dwell in it, neither man nor beast.
Ug ipadala sila ngadto sa hari sa Edom, ug ngadto sa hari sa Moab, ug ngadto sa hari sa mga anak sa Ammon, ug ngadto sa hari sa Tiro, ug ngadto sa hari sa Sidon, pinaagi sa kamot sa mga sulogoon nga moanha sa Jerusalem ngadto kang Sedechias nga hari sa Juda:
4 In those days, and at that time, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Juda together; they shall proceed, weeping as they go, seeking the Lord their God.
Ug sugoa sila sa pag-ingon sa ilang mga agalon: Mao kini ang giiingon ni Jehova sa mga panon, ang Dios sa Israel: Mao kini ang igaingon ninyo sa inyong mga agalon:
5 They shall ask the way till [they come to] Sion, for that way shall they set their face; and they shall come and flee for refuge to the Lord their God; for the everlasting covenant shall not be forgotten.
Gibuhat ko ang yuta, ang mga tawo, ug ang mga mananap nga anaa sa nawong sa yuta, tungod sa akong daku nga gahum ug tungod sa tinuy-od ko nga kamot; ug kini ihatag ko niadtong daw matarung kanako.
6 My people have been lost sheep: their shepherds thrust them out, they caused them to wander on the mountains: they went from mountain to hill, they forgot their resting-place.
Ug karon gihatag ko na kining tibook nga yuta sa kamot ni Nabucodonosor ang hari sa Babilonia, nga akong alagad; ug ang mga mananap sa kapatagan gihatag ko sa usab kaniya aron sa pag-alagad kaniya.
7 All that found them consumed them: their enemies said, Let us not leave them alone, because they have sinned against the Lord: he that gathered their fathers [had] a pasture of righteousness.
Ug ang tanang mga nasud manag-alagad kaniya, ug sa iyang anak, ug sa mga anak sa iyang mga anak, hangtud nga moabut ang panahon sa iyang kaugalingong yuta: ug unya daghang mga nasud ug dagkung mga hari nga magaulipon kaniya.
8 Flee you out of the midst of Babylon, and from the land of the Chaldeans, and go forth, and be as serpents before sleep.
Ug mahitabo, nga ang nasud ug ang gingharian nga dili mag-alagad sa maong Nabucodonosor nga hari sa Babilonia, ug nga dili magpasangon sa ilang liog sa yugo sa hari sa Babilonia, kanang nasura, nagaingon si Jehova, pagasilotan ko pinaagi sa espada, ug pinaagi sa gutom, ug pinaagi sa kamatay, hangtud nga mangaut-ut ko sila pinaagi sa iyang kamot.
9 For, behold, I stir up against Babylon the gatherings of nations out of the land of the north; and they shall set themselves in array against her: thence shall she be taken, as the dart of an expert warrior shall not return empty.
Apan mahitungod kaninyo, ayaw kamo pagpamati sa inyong mga manalagna, ni sa inyong mga magtatagna, ni sa inyong mga damgo, ni sa inyong mga diwatahan, ni sa inyong mga salamangkiro, nga nanagsulti kaninyo sa pag-ingon: Dili kamo manag-alagad sa hari sa Babilonia:
10 And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her shall be satisfied.
Kay sila managna ug bakak kaninyo sq pagpabalhin kaninyo ngadto sa halayo gikan sa inyong yuta, ug nga hinginlan ko kamo, ug nga kamo mangahanaw.
11 Because you rejoiced, and boasted, [while] plundering mine heritage; because you exulted as calves in the grass, and pushed with the horn as bulls.
Apan ang nasud nga magpasangon sa ilang liog sa yugo sa hari sa Babilonia, ug mag-alagad kaniya, kana nga nasura mao ang akong ibilin sa kaugalingon nilang yuta, nagaingon si Jehova; ug sila manag-uma niadto, ug managpuyo didto.
12 Your mother is greatly ashamed; your mother that bore you for prosperity is confounded: [she is] the last of the nations, desolate,
Ug ako misulti kang Sedechias nga hari sa Juda sumala niining tanang mga pulong, nga nagaingon: Pasangoni ninyo ang inyong mga liog sa yugo sa hari sa Babilonia, ug alagara siya ug ang iyang katawohan, ug mangabuhi kamo.
13 by reason of the Lord's anger: it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be all a desolation; and every one that passes through Babylon shall scowl, and they shall hiss at all her plague.
Nganong buot kamo nga mangamatay, ikaw ug ang imong katawohan, sa pinuti, sa gutom, ug sa kamatay, ingon sa gisulti ni Jehova mahatungod sa nasud nga dili moalagad sa hari sa Babilonia?
14 Set yourselves in array against Babylon round about, all you that bend the bow; shoot at her, spare not your arrows,
Ug ayaw kamo pagpatalinghug sa mga pulong sa mga manalagna nga managsulti kaninyo sa pag-ingon: Dili kamo mag-alagad sa hari sa Babilonia; kay sila nanagna ug bakak kaninyo.
15 and prevail against her: her hands are weakened, her bulwarks are fallen, and her wall is broken down: for it is vengeance from God: take vengeance upon her; as she has done, do to her.
Kay ako wala magpadala kanila, nagaingon si Jehova, sila hinoon managpanagna ug bakak sa akong ngalan; aron ako magapapahawa kaninyo, ug nga aron kamo mangamatay, kamo, ug ang mga manalagna nga nanagpanagna kaninyo.
16 Utterly destroy seed out of Babylon, [and] him that holds a sickle in time of harvest: for fear of the Grecian sword, they shall return every one to his people, and every one shall flee to his own land.
Nagsulti usab ako sa mga sacerdote, ug sa tibook niining katawohan sa pag-ingon: Mao kini ang giingon ni Jehova: Ayaw pagpatalinghug sa pulong sa inyong mga manalagna nga nanagpanagna kaninyo, sa pag-ingon: Ania karon, ang mga sudlanan sa balay ni Jehova sa hamubong panahon pagadad-on na usab gikan sa Babilonia: kay nanagpanagna sila ug bakak kaninyo.
17 Israel is a wandering sheep; the lions have driven him out: the king of Assyria first devoured him, and afterward this king of Babylon [has gnawed] his bones.
Ayaw kamo pagpatalinghug kanila; alagara ang hari sa Babilonia, ug mangabuhi kamo: nganong himoon nga biniyaan kining ciudara?
18 Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] take vengeance on the king of Babylon, and upon his land, as I took vengeance on the king of Assyria.
Apan kong sila manalagna man, ug kong ang pulong ni Jehova anaa kanila, papangamuyoa sila karon kang Jehova sa mga panon, aron ang mga sudlanan nga nanghibilin sa balay ni Jehova, ug sa balay sa hari sa Juda, ug sa Jerusalem, dili mahiadto sa Babilonia.
19 And I will restore Israel to his pasture, and he shall feed on Carmel and on mount Ephraim and in Galaad, and his soul shall be satisfied.
Kay mao kini ang giingon ni Jehova sa mga panon mahatungod sa mga haligi, ug mahatungod sa dagat-dagat, ug mahatungod sa mga tungtonganan, ug mahatungod sa salin sa mga sudlanan nga nahibilin niining ciudara.
20 In those days, and at that time, they shall seek for the iniquity of Israel, and there shall be none; and for the sins of Juda, and they shall not be found: for I will be merciful to them that are left
Nga wala kuhaa ni Nabucodonosor, hari sa Babilonia, sa diha nga iyang gidala nga binihag si Jeconias, ang anak nga lalake ni Joacim, nga hari sa Juda, gikan sa Jerusalem ngadto sa Babilonia, ug ang tanang mga principe sa Juda ug sa Jerusalem;
21 on the land, says the Lord. Go up against it roughly, and against them that dwell on it: avenge, O sword, and destroy utterly, says the Lord, and do according to all that I command you.
Oo, mao kini ang giingon ni Jehova sa mga panon, ang Dios sa Israel, mahatungod sa mga sudlanan nga nanghibilin sa balay ni Jehova, ug balay sa hari sa Juda, ug sa Jerusalem:
22 A sound of war, and great destruction in the land of the Chaldeans!
Sila pagadad-on ngadto sa Babilonia, ug sila mahibilin didto, hangtud sa adlaw nga madu-aw ako kanila, nagaingon si Jehova; unya dad-on ko nganhi sila, ug ipahauli ko sila niining dapita.
23 How is the hammer of the whole earth broken and crushed! How is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
24 They shall come upon you, and you shall not know it, Babylon, that you will even be taken captive: you are found and taken, because you did resist the Lord.
25 The Lord has opened his treasury, and brought forth the weapons of his anger: for the Lord God [has] a work in the land of the Chaldeans.
26 For her times are come: open you her storehouses: search her as a cave, and utterly destroy her: let there be no remnant of her.
27 Dry you up all her fruits, and let them go down to the slaughter: woe to them! for their day is come, and the time of their retribution.
28 A voice of men fleeing and escaping from the land of Babylon, to declare to Sion the vengeance [that comes] from the Lord our God.
29 Summon many against Babylon, [even] every one that bends the bow: camp against her round about; let no one of her [people] escape: render to her according to her works; according to all that she has done, do to her: for she has resisted the Lord, the Holy God of Israel.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her warriors shall be cast down, says the Lord.
31 Behold, I am against you the haughty one, says the Lord: for your day is come, and the time of your retribution.
32 And your pride shall fail, and fall, and there shall be no one to set it up again: and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all things round about her.
33 Thus says the Lord; The children of Israel and the children of Juda have been oppressed: all they that have taken them captive have oppressed them together; for they would not let them go.
34 But their Redeemer is strong; the Lord Almighty is his name: he will enter into judgment with his adversaries, that he may destroy the earth;
35 and he will sharpen a sword against the Chaldeans, and against the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her nobles and upon her wise men;
36 a sword upon her warriors, and they shall be weakened: a sword upon their horses, and upon their chariots:
37 a sword upon their warriors and upon the mixed people in the midst of her; and they shall be as women: a sword upon the treasures, and they shall be scattered upon her water,
38 and they shall be ashamed: for it is a land of graven [images]; and in the islands, where they boasted.
39 Therefore shall idols dwell in the islands, and the young of monsters shall dwell in it: it shall not be inhabited any more for ever.
40 As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities bordering upon them, says the Lord: no man shall dwell there, and no son of man shall sojourn there.
41 Behold, a people comes from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall be stirred up from the end of the earth; holding bow and dagger:
42 [the people] is fierce, and will have no mercy: their voices shall sound as the sea, they shall ride upon horses, prepared for war, like fire, against you, O daughter of Babylon.
43 The king of Babylon heard the sound of them, and his hands were enfeebled: anguish overcame him, pangs as of a woman in travail.
44 Behold, he shall come up as a lion from Jordan to Gaethan; for I will speedily drive them from her, and I will set all the youths against her: for who is like me? and who will resist me? and who is this shepherd who will stand before me?
45 Therefore hear you the counsel of the Lord, which he has taken against Babylon; and his devices, which he has devised upon the Chaldeans inhabiting [it]: surely lambs of their flock shall be destroyed: surely pasture shall be cut off from them.
46 For at the sound of the taking of Babylon the earth shall quake, and a cry shall be heard among the nations.
