< Jeremiah 15 >
1 And YHWH says to me: “Though Moses and Samuel should stand before Me, My soul is not toward this people, Send from before My face, and they go out.
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 has come to pass, when they say to you, To where do we go out? That you have said to them, Thus said YHWH: Those who [are] for death—to death, And those who are for the sword—to the sword, And those who are for famine—to famine, And those who are for captivity—to 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 have appointed four kinds over them,” A declaration of YHWH, “The sword to slay, and the dogs to drag, And the bird of the heavens, And the beast of the earth, to consume and to devour.
“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 have given them for a trembling To all kingdoms of the earth, Because of Manasseh 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 has pity on you, O Jerusalem? And who bemoans for you? And who turns aside to ask of your welfare?
“Ta ni yóò ṣàánú rẹ, ìwọ Jerusalẹmu? Ta ni yóò dárò rẹ? Ta ni yóò dúró béèrè àlàáfíà rẹ?
6 You have left Me,” A declaration of YHWH, “You go backward, And I stretch out My hand against you, And I destroy you, I have been weary of relenting,
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 scatter them with a fan, In the gates of the land, I have bereaved [them], I have destroyed My people, They did not turn back 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 Its widows have been more to Me than the sand of the seas, I brought on them—against the mother—A young man—a spoiler—at noon. I caused wrath and trouble to fall on her suddenly.

9 The bearer of seven has languished, She has breathed out her spirit, Her sun has gone in while yet day, It has been ashamed and confounded, And I give up their remnant to the sword before their enemies,” A declaration of YHWH.
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 to me, my mother, For you have borne me, A man of strife and a man of contention to all the land, I have not lent on usury, Nor have they lent on usury to me—All of them are reviling 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 YHWH said, “Did I not direct you for good? Did I not intercede for you in a time of evil, And in a time of adversity, with the enemy?
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 Does one break iron, Northern iron and bronze?
“Ǹjẹ́ ẹnìkan lè fi ọwọ́ ṣẹ́ irin irin láti àríwá tàbí idẹ?
13 I give your strength and your treasures for a prey—not for price, Even for all your sins, and in all your 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 have caused your enemies To pass over into the land [that] You have not known, For a fire has been kindled in My anger, It burns against 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 You, You have known, O YHWH, Remember me, and inspect me, And take vengeance for me of my pursuers, In Your long-suffering do not take me away, Know [that] I have borne reproach for You.
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 Your words have been found, and I eat them, And Your word is to me for a joy, And for the rejoicing of my heart, For Your Name is called on me, O YHWH, 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 have not sat in an assembly of deriders, Nor do I exult, because of your hand—I have sat alone, For You have 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 has my pain been continuous? And my wound incurable? It has refused to be healed, You are surely as a failing stream to me, Waters [that are] not steadfast.
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 said YHWH: “If you turn back, then I bring you back, You stand before Me, And if you bring out the precious from the vile, You are as My mouth! They return to you, And you do not return to 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 have made you to this people For a wall—bronze—fortified, And they have fought against you, And they do not prevail against you, For I [am] with you to save you, And to deliver you,” A declaration of YHWH,
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 have delivered you from the hand of evildoers, And I have ransomed you From 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.”
