< Jeremiah 19 >

1 Thus said the LORD, "Go, and buy a potter's earthen bottle, and take with you some of the elders of the people, and of the elders of the cohanim;
Èyí ní ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Lọ ra ìkòkò lọ́dọ̀ alámọ̀, mú dání lára àwọn àgbàgbà ọkùnrin àti wòlíì.
2 and go forth to the Valley of Ben Hinnom, which is by the entry of the Potsherd Gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell you;
Kí o sì lọ sí àfonífojì ọmọ Beni-Hinnomu, níwájú ẹnu ibodè Harsiti, níbẹ̀ ni kí o sì kéde gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ tí èmi yóò sọ fún ọ.
3 and say, 'Hear the word of the LORD, kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem: thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Look, I will bring evil on this place, which whoever hears, his ears shall tingle.
Kí o sì wí pé, ‘Gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ẹ̀yin ọba àwọn Juda àti ẹ̀yin ará Jerusalẹmu. Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run Israẹli sọ. Dẹtí sí mi! Èmi yóò mú ìparun wá síbí, etí gbogbo wọn tó bá gbọ́ ọ yóò hó yaya.
4 Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it to other gods, that they did not know, they and their fathers and the kings of Judah; and have filled this place with the blood of innocents,
Nítorí wọ́n ti gbàgbé mi, wọ́n sì ti sọ ibí di ilé fún òrìṣà àjèjì; wọ́n ti sun ẹbọ nínú rẹ̀ fún òrìṣà tí àwọn baba wọn tàbí tí ọba Juda kò mọ̀ rí, wọ́n ti fi ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ kún ilẹ̀ yìí.
5 and have built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons in the fire for burnt offerings to Baal; which I did not command, nor spoke it, neither came it into my mind:
Wọ́n ti kọ́ ibi gíga fún Baali láti sun ọmọkùnrin wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ohun ẹbọ sísun sí Baali—èyí tí èmi kò pàṣẹ láti ṣe, tí èmi kò sì sọ, tàbí tí kò sì ru sókè láti inú ọkàn mi.
6 therefore, look, the days come," says the LORD, "that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor The Valley of Ben Hinnom, but The Valley of Slaughter.
Nítorí náà ṣọ́ra ọjọ́ ń bọ̀ ni Olúwa wí nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn kì yóò pe ibí ní Tofeti mọ́ tàbí àfonífojì ọmọ Hinnomu, ṣùgbọ́n àfonífojì Ìpakúpa.
7 I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life: and their dead bodies will I give to be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.
“‘Ní ibí yìí ni èmi yóò ti pa èrò Juda àti Jerusalẹmu run. Èmí yóò mú wọn ṣubú nípa idà níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá wọn, lọ́wọ́ àwọn tí ó ń wá ẹ̀mí wọn. Èmi yóò sì fi òkú wọn ṣe oúnjẹ fún àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run àti ẹranko ilẹ̀.
8 I will make this city an astonishment, and a hissing; everyone who passes thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all its plagues.
Èmi yóò sọ ìlú yìí di ahoro àti ohun ẹ̀gàn, gbogbo àwọn tí ń kọjá yóò bẹ̀rù wọn yóò sì máa fòyà nítorí gbogbo ọgbẹ́ rẹ̀.
9 I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters; and they shall eat everyone the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the distress, with which their enemies, and those who seek their life, shall distress them."'
Èmi yóò mú kí wọ́n jẹ ẹran-ara ọmọ wọn ọkùnrin àti ẹran-ara ọmọ wọn obìnrin, ẹnìkínní yóò sì jẹ ẹran-ara ẹnìkejì, nígbà ìdótì àti ìhámọ́ láti ọwọ́ ọ̀tá wọn, àti àwọn tí ó ń wá ẹ̀mí wọn.’
10 Then you shall break the bottle in the sight of the men who go with you,
“Nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò fọ́ ìkòkò náà ní ojú àwọn tí ó bá ọ lọ.
11 and shall tell them, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts: "Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter's vessel, that can't be made whole again; and they shall bury in Topheth, until there is no place to bury.
Kí o sì sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí. Èmi a fọ́ orílẹ̀-èdè yìí àti ìlú yìí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìkòkò amọ̀ yìí ṣe fọ́ tí kò sì ní sí àtúnṣe. Wọn a sì sin àwọn òkú sí Tofeti títí tí kò fi ní sí ààyè mọ́.
12 Thus will I do to this place," says the LORD, "and to its inhabitants, even making this city as Topheth:
Èyí ni ohun tí èmi yóò ṣe sí ibí yìí àti àwọn tí ń gbé ní ibí yìí ni Olúwa wí. Èmi yóò mú ìlú yìí dàbí Tofeti.
13 and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, shall be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings to other gods."'"
Àwọn ilé tí ó wà ní Jerusalẹmu àti ti ọba ìlú Juda ni a ó sọ di àìmọ́ bí Tofeti, gbogbo ilé tí wọ́n ti ń sun tùràrí ni orí òrùlé sí gbogbo ogun ọ̀run, tí a sì ń rú ẹbọ mímu sí ọlọ́run mìíràn.’”
14 Then came Jeremiah from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD's house, and said to all the people:
Jeremiah sì padà láti Tofeti níbi tí Olúwa rán an sí láti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ó sì dúró ní gbangba tẹmpili Olúwa, ó sì sọ fún gbogbo ènìyàn pé,
15 "Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, 'Look, I will bring on this city and on all its towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it; because they have made their neck stiff, that they may not hear my words.'"
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: ‘Tẹ́tí sílẹ̀! Èmi yóò mú ìdààmú tí mo ti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ rẹ̀ bá ìlú yìí àti ìgbèríko tí ó yí i ká, nítorí ọlọ́rùn líle ni wọ́n, wọn kò si ní fẹ́ fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi.’”
