< Jeremiah 32 >
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the tenth year of Zedekiah the king of Judah, which is the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar.
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tó tọ Jeremiah wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa ní ọdún kẹwàá Sedekiah ọba Juda, èyí tí ó jẹ́ ọdún kejìdínlógún ti Nebukadnessari.
2 And at that time the king of Babylon's army was besieging Jerusalem; and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the house of the king of Judah;
Àwọn ogun ọba Babeli ìgbà náà há Jerusalẹmu mọ́. A sì sé wòlíì Jeremiah mọ́ inú túbú tí wọ́n ń ṣọ́ ní àgbàlá ilé ọba Juda.
3 Because Zedekiah the king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Wherefore art thou prophesying, saying, Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will give up this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall capture it.
Nítorí Sedekiah ọba Juda ti há a mọ́lé síbẹ̀; pé, “Kí ló dé tí ìwọ fi ń sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀? Tí o sì wí pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: Èmi ń bọ̀ wá fi ìlú yìí fún ọba Babeli, tí yóò sì gbà á.
4 And Zedekiah the king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, because he shall surely be given up into the hand of the king of Babylon, and his mouth shall speak to his mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes;
Sedekiah ọba Juda kò lè bọ́ lọ́wọ́ àwọn Kaldea, ṣùgbọ́n à ó mú fún ọba Babeli, yóò sì bá sọ̀rọ̀ ní ojúkojú; yóò sì rí pẹ̀lú ojú rẹ̀.
5 And to Babylon shall he lead Zedekiah, and there shall he remain until I think of him, saith the Lord: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper.
Yóò mú Sedekiah lọ sí Babeli tí yóò wà títí èmi yóò fi bẹ̀ ọ́ wò ni Olúwa wí. Tí ẹ̀yin bá bá àwọn ará Kaldea jà, ẹ̀yin kì yóò borí wọn.’”
6 And Jeremiah said, The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
Jeremiah wí pé, “Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá wí pé:
7 Behold, Chanamel the son of Shallum thy uncle is coming unto thee, saying, Buy for thyself my field that is in 'Anathoth; for unto thee belongeth the right of redemption to buy it.
Hanameli ọmọkùnrin Ṣallumu ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ̀ yóò tọ̀ ọ́ wá pé, ‘Ra pápá mi tí ó wà ní Anatoti; nítorí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹni tó súnmọ́ wọn, ẹ̀tọ́ àti ìṣe rẹ ní láti rà á.’
8 And there came to me Chanamel my uncle's son according to the word of the Lord into the court of the prison, and he said unto me, Buy, I pray thee, my field, that is in 'Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for to thee belongeth the right of inheritance, and to thee belongeth the redemption, buy it for thyself: then did I know that it was the word of the Lord.
“Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ, Hanameli ọmọ ẹ̀gbọ́n mi tọ̀ mí wá ní àgbàlá túbú wí pé, ‘Ra pápá mi tí ó wà ní Anatoti tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ Benjamini, èyí tí ó jẹ́ pé ẹ̀tọ́ rẹ ni láti gbà á àti láti ni, rà á fún ara rẹ.’ “Nígbà náà ni èmi mọ̀ wí pé ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ni èyí.
9 And I bought the field from Chanamel my uncle's son, that is in 'Anathoth; and I weighed out unto him the money, seven shekels, and ten pieces of silver.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni; èmi ra pápá náà ní Anatoti láti ọwọ́ Hanameli ọmọ ẹ̀gbọ́n mi. Mo sì wọn ìwọ̀n ṣékélì àti fàdákà mẹ́tàdínlógún fún un.
10 And I wrote it in a deed, and sealed it, and had it certified by witnesses, and weighed the money in balances.
Mo fọwọ́ sínú ìwé, mo sì dì í pa. Mo pe ẹlẹ́rìí sí i, mo sì wọn fàdákà náà lórí òsùwọ̀n.
11 And I took the deed of the purchase, both that which was sealed, according to the law and custom, and that which was open;
Mo mú ìwé tí mo fi rà á, èyí tí a di pa nípa àṣẹ àti òfin wa, àti èyí tí a kò lẹ̀.
12 And I gave the deed of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriyah, the son of Machseyah, before the eyes of Chanamel my kinsman, and before the eyes of the witnesses that had signed the deed of the purchase, before the eyes of all the Jews that were sitting in the court of the prison.
Èmi sì fi èyí fún Baruku, ọmọ Neriah, ọmọ Maseiah, ní ojú Hanameli, ọmọ ẹ̀gbọ́n mi àti níwájú àwọn ẹlẹ́rìí tí ó ti fi ọwọ́ sí ìwé àti ní ojú àwọn Júù gbogbo tí wọ́n jókòó ní àgbàlá ilé túbú.
13 And I charged Baruch before their eyes, saying,
“Ní ojú wọn ni èmi ti pàṣẹ fún Baruku pé,
14 Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Take these deeds, this deed of the purchase, both the sealed, and this open deed, and place them in an earthen vessel, in order that they may last many days.
èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí; mú àwọn ìwé tí a fi rà á wọ̀nyí, àti èyí tí a lẹ̀ àti èyí tí a kò lẹ̀, kí o wá gbé wọn sínú ìkòkò amọ̀, kí wọn ó lè wà ní ọjọ́ púpọ̀.
15 For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Yet again shall there be bought houses and fields and vineyards in this land.
Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí; àwọn ilẹ̀, pápá àti ọgbà àjàrà ni à ó tún rà padà nílẹ̀ yìí.
16 And I prayed to the Lord after I had delivered the deed of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriyah, saying,
“Lẹ́yìn tí mo ti fi ìwé rírà náà fún Baruku ọmọkùnrin Neriah, mo gbàdúrà sí Olúwa wí pé:
17 Ah Lord Eternal! behold, it is thou that hast made the heavens and the earth by thy great power and by thy outstretched arm; nothing is too wonderful for thee;
“Háà! Olúwa Olódùmarè, ìwọ tí o dá ọ̀run àti ayé pẹ̀lú títóbi agbára rẹ àti gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ apá rẹ. Kò sí ohun tí ó ṣòro fún ọ láti ṣe.
18 Thou exercisest kindness unto the thousandth [generation], and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers unto the bosom of their children after them; [thou art] the Great, the Mighty God, the Lord of hosts is his name;
O fi ìfẹ́ hàn sí ẹgbẹẹgbẹ̀rún àwọn ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n o gbé ìyà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àwọn baba lé àwọn ọmọ lẹ́yìn wọn. Ọlọ́run títóbi àti alágbára, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ.
19 Great in counsel, and mighty in execution: [thou] whose eyes are open over all the ways of the sons of man, to give unto every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings;
Títóbi ni ìgbìmọ̀, àti alágbára ní í ṣe, ojú rẹ̀ ṣì sí gbogbo ọ̀nà àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn; láti fi fún olúkúlùkù gẹ́gẹ́ ọ̀nà rẹ̀ àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí èso iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
20 Who hast displayed signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, up to this day, and in Israel, and among other men; and thou hast made thyself a name, as it is at this day;
O ṣe iṣẹ́ àmì àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu ńlá ní Ejibiti. O sì ń ṣe é títí di òní ní Israẹli àti lára ọmọ ènìyàn tí ó sì ti gba òkìkí tí ó jẹ́ tìrẹ.
21 And thou didst bring forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terror;
O kó àwọn Israẹli ènìyàn rẹ jáde láti Ejibiti pẹ̀lú iṣẹ́ àmì àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu nínú ọwọ́ agbára àti nína apá rẹ pẹ̀lú ẹ̀rù ńlá.
22 And thou gavest them this land, which thou hadst sworn to their fathers to give unto them, a land flowing with milk and honey;
Ìwọ fún wọn nílẹ̀ yìí, èyí tí o ti ṣèlérí fún àwọn baba ńlá wọn; ilẹ̀ tí ó ń sàn fún wàrà àti oyin.
23 And they came in, and took possession of it; but they hearkened not to thy voice, and in thy law they did not walk; all that thou hadst commanded them to do they did not do: and thou hast therefore caused all this evil to befall them.
Wọ́n wá, wọ́n sì gba ilẹ̀ náà ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ tàbí tẹ̀lé òfin rẹ. Wọn kò ṣe ohun tí o pàṣẹ fún wọn, nítorí náà ìwọ mú àwọn ibi yìí wá sórí wọn.
24 Behold the mounds reach unto the city to capture it; and the city is given up into the hand of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it.
“Wò ó, bí àwọn ìdọ̀tí ṣe kórajọ láti gba ìlú. Nítorí idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn, sì fi ìlú lé ọwọ́ àwọn ará Kaldea tí ń gbóguntì wọ́n. Ohun tí ìwọ sọ ṣẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ṣe rí i.
25 And yet thou hast said unto me, O Lord Eternal, Buy for thyself the field for money, and have it certified by witnesses: while the city is given up into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Síbẹ̀ a ó fi ìlú náà fún àwọn ará Babeli, ìwọ Olúwa Olódùmarè sọ fún mi pé, ‘Ra pápá náà pẹ̀lú owó fàdákà, kí o sì pe ẹlẹ́rìí.’”
26 Then came the word of the Lord unto Jeremiah, saying,
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá pé:
27 Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: shall any thing be too wonderful for me?
“Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run gbogbo ẹran-ara. Ǹjẹ́ ohun kan ha a ṣòro fún mi bí?
28 Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will give up this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, and he shall capture it:
Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa wí, Èmi ṣetán láti fi ìlú yìí fún àwọn ará Kaldea àti fún Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli ẹni tí yóò kó o.
29 And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set this city on fire, and burn it, with the houses upon the roofs of which they have offered incense unto Ba'al, and have poured out drink-offerings unto other gods, in order to provoke me to anger;
Àwọn ará Kaldea tí ó ń gbógun tí ìlú yóò wọ ìlú. Wọn ó sì fi iná sí ìlú; wọn ó jó o palẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ilé tí àwọn ènìyàn ti ń mú mi bínú, tí wọ́n ń rú ẹbọ tùràrí lórí pẹpẹ fún Baali tiwọn sì ń da ẹbọ ohun mímu fún àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn.
30 For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have been doing only what is evil in my eyes from their youth; for the children of Israel have been only provoking me to anger with the work of their hands, saith the Lord.
“Àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli àti Juda kò ṣe ohun kankan bí kò ṣe ibi lójú mi láti ìgbà èwe wọn. Nítorí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti fi kìkì iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọ́n mú mi bínú ni Olúwa wí.
31 For to excite my anger and my fury hath been unto me this city from the day that they built it, even until this day; so that I will remove it from before my presence:
Láti ọjọ́ tí wọ́n ti kọ́ ọ, títí di àkókò yìí ni ìlú yìí ti jẹ́ ohun ìbínú àti ìyọnu fún mi tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí èmi yóò fà á tu kúrò níwájú mi.
32 Because of all the wickedness of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem;
Àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli àti àwọn ènìyàn Juda ti mú mi bínú pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìbàjẹ́ tí wọ́n ṣe. Àwọn Israẹli, ọba wọn àti gbogbo ìjòyè, àlùfáà àti wòlíì, àwọn ọkùnrin Juda àti àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu.
33 And they turned unto me the back, and not the face: though [my prophets] taught them, rising up early and teaching; yet they hearkened not to receive instruction.
Wọ́n kọ ẹ̀yìn sí mi, wọ́n sì yí ojú wọn padà. Èmi kọ wọ́n, síbẹ̀ wọn kò fetísílẹ̀ láti gbọ́ ẹ̀kọ́ tàbí kọbi ara sí ìwà ìbàjẹ́.
34 But they placed their abominations in the house, which is called by my name, to defile it.
Wọ́n kó òrìṣà ìríra wọn jọ sí inú ilé tí wọ́n fi orúkọ mi pè, wọ́n sì ṣọ́ di àìmọ́.
35 And they built the high-places of Ba'al, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through [the fire] unto Molech; which I had not commanded them, and which had not come into my mind, to practise this abomination, in order to mislead Judah to sin.
Wọ́n kọ́ ibi gíga fún Baali ní àfonífojì Hinnomu láti fi ọmọ wọn ọkùnrin àti obìnrin rú ẹbọ sí Moleki. Èmi kò pàṣẹ, fún wọn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò wá sí ọkàn mi pé kí wọ́n ṣe ohun ìríra wọ̀nyí tí ó sì mú Juda dẹ́ṣẹ̀.
36 But now, therefore, thus hath said the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning this city, whereof ye say, it is given up into the hand of the king of Babylon through the sword, and through the famine, and through the pestilence:
“Ìwọ ń sọ̀rọ̀ nípa ti ìlú yìí pé, ‘Pẹ̀lú idà, ìyàn àti àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ni à ó fi wọ́n fún ọba Babeli,’ ṣùgbọ́n ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ nìyìí,
37 Behold, I will gather them out of all the countries, whither I have driven them in my anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them back again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell in safety;
Èmi ó kó wọn jọ láti gbogbo ilẹ̀ tí mo ti lé wọn kúrò ní ìgbà ìbínú àti ìkáàánú ńlá mi. Èmi yóò mú wọn padà wá sí ilẹ̀ yìí; èmi ó sì jẹ́ kí wọn ó máa gbé láìléwu.
38 And they shall be unto me for a people, and I will be unto them for a God:
Wọn yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn mi, èmi yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn.
39 And I will give them one heart, and one manner, to fear me at all times, that it may be well with them, and with their children after them;
Èmi ó fún wọn ní ọkàn kan àti ìṣe kí wọn kí ó lè máa bẹ̀rù mi fún rere wọn àti fún rere àwọn ọmọ wọn tí ó tẹ̀lé wọn.
40 And I will make with them an everlasting covenant, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good on my part; and my fear will I place in their heart, so that they may not depart from me.
Èmi ò bá wọn dá májẹ̀mú ayérayé, èmi kò ní dúró láti ṣe rere fún wọn, Èmi ó sì jẹ́ kí wọ́n bẹ̀rù mi, wọn kì yóò sì padà lẹ́yìn mi.
41 And I will be glad over them to do them good; and I will plant them in this land in truth, with all my heart and with all my soul.
Lóòtítọ́, èmi ó yọ̀ nípa ṣíṣe wọ́n ní rere, èmi ó sì fi dá wọn lójú nípa gbígbìn wọ́n sí ilẹ̀ yìí tọkàntọkàn mi.
42 For thus hath said the Lord, Just as I have brought upon this people all this great evil, so will I bring upon them all the good that I speak concerning them.
“Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa wí, gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti mú gbogbo ibi ńlá yìí wá sórí àwọn ènìyàn yìí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi ó mú gbogbo rere tí èmi ti sọ nípa tiwọn wá sórí wọn.
43 And the field shall yet be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast, it is given up into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, pápá yóò di rírà ní ilẹ̀ yìí tí ìwọ ti sọ pé, ‘Ohun òfò ni tí kò bá sí ọkùnrin tàbí àwọn ẹran, nítorí tí a ti fi fún àwọn ará Babeli.’
44 Men shall buy fields for money, and write it in deeds, and seal it, and certify it by witnesses, in the land of Benjamin, and in the environs of Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountain, and in the cities of the lowlands, and in the cities of the south; for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the Lord.
Wọn ó fi owó fàdákà ra oko, wọn yóò fi ọwọ́ sí ìwé, wọn ó dí pa pẹ̀lú ẹlẹ́rìí láti ilẹ̀ Benjamini àti ní ìlú kéékèèké tí ó yí Jerusalẹmu ká, àti ní ìlú Juda àti ní ìlú àwọn ìlú orí òkè, àti ni àwọn ẹsẹ̀ òkè, àti ní gúúsù, èmi ó mú ìgbèkùn wọn padà wá, ni Olúwa wí.”
