Jeremias 30
1 CONCERNING THE SONS OF AMMON thus says the Lord, Are there no sons in Israel? or have they no one to succeed [them]? therefore has Melchol inherited Galaad, and why shall their people dwell in their cities?
Esia nye nya si va na Yeremia tso Yehowa gbɔ.
2 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will cause to be heard in Rabbath a tumult of wars; and they shall become a waste and ruined place, and her altars shall be burned with fire; then shall Israel succeed to his dominion.
“Ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ŋlɔ nya siwo katã megblɔ na wò la ɖe agbalẽ me’
3 Howl, O Esebon, for Gai has perished; cry, you daughters of Rabbath, gird yourselves with sackcloth, and lament; for Melchol shall go into banishment, his priests and his princes together.
Yehowa be, ‘Ŋkekewo li gbɔna, esi makplɔ nye dukɔwo Israel kple Yuda agbɔe tso aboyo me, eye magbugbɔ anyigba si metsɔ na wo fofowo be wòanye wo tɔ la na wo.’” Yehowa gblɔe.
4 Why do you exult in the plains of the Enakim, you haughty daughter, that trust in [your] treasures, that say, Who shall come in to me?
Nya siawoe Yehowa gblɔ tso Israel kple Yuda ŋuti.
5 Behold, I [will] bring terror upon you, says the Lord, from all the country round about you; and you shall be scattered every one right before him, and there is none to gather you.
“Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Wose vɔvɔ̃ ƒe avifafa, ŋɔdzi koe li, menye ŋutifafa o.
Bia eye nàkpɔe ɖa be, Ɖe ŋutsu afɔ fu ahadzi via? Ekema, nu ka ta mekpɔ ŋutsu sesẽ ɖe sia ɖe le asi lilim eƒe ƒodo dzi abe nyɔnu si le ku lém ene, eye woƒe mowo fu tititi ale?
Alele, anye ŋkeke dziŋɔ eye ɖeke magasɔ kplii o! Anye xaxaɣi na Yakob, ke woaɖee le eme.”
Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la be, “Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, maŋe kɔkuti la le woƒe kɔwo eye maɖe ga wo, amedzrowo magado kluvi wo azɔ o.
Ke boŋ woasubɔ Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la kple woƒe fia David, si maɖo na wo.
“Eya ta mègavɔ̃ o. O, nye dɔla Yakob. O Israel, wò mo megatsi dãa o.” Yehowae gblɔe. “Le nyateƒe me, makplɔ wò tso didiƒenyigba dzi, eye maɖe wò dzidzimeviwo hã tso aboyo me. Yakob aganɔ anyi le ŋutifafa kple dedinɔnɔ me eye ame aɖeke magado vodzi nɛ o.
Meli kpli wò be maɖe wò.” Yehowae gblɔe. “Togbɔ be matsrɔ̃ dukɔ siwo katã me mekaka mi ɖo hã la, nyematsrɔ̃ miawo ya keŋkeŋ o. Nyemagblẽ mi ɖi tomahemahee ya o, mahe to na mi gake ɖe dzɔdzɔenyenye dzi.
“Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Wò abi la nye abi makumaku, eye nuvevi si wɔ wò la, womate ŋu adae o.
Ame aɖeke meli aʋli tawò o, atike aɖeke meli na wò abi la o, eya ta dɔyɔyɔ hã meli na wò o.

“‘Gake ame siwo katã vuvu wò la woavuvu wo, eye wò futɔwo katã ayi aboyo me. Ame siwo ha wò la, woaha woawo hã. Ame siwo wɔ wò abe afunyinuwo ene la, mawɔ woawo hã abe afunyinuwo ene.
Ke mana nàhaya, eye mana wò abiawo naku, elabena woyɔ wò be saɖagatɔ, Zion si ame aɖeke mebiaa eta sena o.’” Yehowae gblɔe.
“Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Kpɔ ɖa, magaɖo Yakob ƒe aƒe ƒe nu nyuiwo te eye makpɔ nublanui na eƒe nɔƒewo; woagbugbɔ du la atso ɖe gli gbagbãwo teƒe eye woatu fiasã la ɖe eƒe nɔƒe xoxoa.

Ale be mianye nye dukɔ eye nye hã manye miaƒe Mawu.’” Yehowae gblɔe.
23 CONCERNING DAMASCUS. Emath is brought to shame, and Arphath: for they have heard an evil report: they are amazed, they are angry, they shall be utterly unable to rest.
Kpɔ ɖa, Yehowa ƒe ahom atu sesĩe le dziku helĩhelĩ me, eye yali abla ɖe ta ŋu na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo kɔtɔɔ.
24 Damascus is utterly weakened, she is put to flight; trembling has seized upon her.
Yehowa ƒe dziku dziŋɔ la matrɔ adzo o, va se ɖe esime wòwɔ nu siwo katã le eƒe dzi dzi la de goe hafi. Le ŋkeke siwo gbɔna me la, miase nu sia gɔme.
25 How has she not left my city, they have loved the village?
26 Therefore shall the young men fall in your streets, and all your warriors shall fall, says the Lord.
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the streets of the son of Ader.
28 CONCERNING KEDAR THE QUEEN OF THE PALACE, WHOM NABUCHODONOSOR KING OF BABYLON SMOTE, thus says the Lord; Arise you, and go up to Kedar, and fill the sons of Kedem.
29 They shall take their tents and their sheep, they shall take for themselves their garments, and all their baggage and their camels; and summon you destruction against them from every side.
30 Flee you, dig very deep for a dwelling-place, you that dwell in the palace; for the king of Babylon has framed a counsel, and devised a device against you.
31 Rise up, and go up against a nation settled [and] dwelling at ease, who have no doors, nor bolts, nor bars, [who] dwell alone.
32 And their camels shall be a spoil, and the multitude of their cattle shall be destroyed: and I will scatter them as chaff with every wind, having their hair cut about their foreheads, I will bring on their overthrow from all sides, says the Lord.
33 And the palace shall be a resting-place for ostriches, and desolate for ever: no man shall abide there, and no son of man shall dwell there.
