< Jeremiah 47 >

1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before that Pharaoh smote Gaza.
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tó tọ wòlíì Jeremiah wá nípa àwọn Filistini, kí ó tó di pé Farao dojúkọ Gasa.
2 Thus saith the LORD: Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and shall become an overflowing stream, and shall overflow the land and all that is therein, the city and them that dwell therein: and the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl.
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Wo bí omi ti ń ru sókè ní àríwá, wọn ó di odò tí ń bo bèbè mọ́lẹ̀. Wọn kò ní borí ilẹ̀ àti ohun gbogbo tó wà lórí rẹ̀, ìlú àti àwọn tó ń gbé nínú wọn. Àwọn ènìyàn yóò kígbe, gbogbo olùgbé ilẹ̀ náà yóò hu
3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers look not back to their children for feebleness of hands;
nígbà tí wọ́n bá gbọ́ ìró títẹ̀lé pátákò ẹsẹ̀ ẹṣin alágbára nígbà tí wọ́n bá gbọ́ ariwo kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun ọ̀tá ńlá àti iye kẹ̀kẹ́ wọn. Àwọn baba kò ní lè ran àwọn ọmọ lọ́wọ́; ọwọ́ wọn yóò kákò.
4 because of the day that cometh to spoil all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Zidon every helper that remaineth: for the LORD will spoil the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
Nítorí tí ọjọ́ náà ti pé láti pa àwọn Filistini run, kí a sì mú àwọn tí ó là tí ó lè ran Tire àti Sidoni lọ́wọ́ kúrò. Olúwa ti ṣetán láti pa Filistini run, àwọn tí ó kù ní agbègbè Kafitori.
5 Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nought, the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself?
Gasa yóò fá irun orí rẹ̀ nínú ọ̀fọ̀. A ó pa Aṣkeloni lẹ́nu mọ́; ìyókù ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, ìwọ yóò ti sá ara rẹ lọ́gbẹ́ pẹ́ tó?
6 O thou sword of the LORD, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? put up thyself into thy scabbard; rest, and be still.
“Ẹ̀yin kígbe, ‘Yé è, idà Olúwa, yóò ti pẹ́ tó tí ìwọ yóò sinmi? Padà sínú àkọ̀ rẹ; sinmi kí o sì dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́.’
7 How canst thou be quiet, seeing the LORD hath given thee a charge? against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore, there hath he appointed it.
Ṣùgbọ́n báwo ni yóò ṣe sinmi, nígbà tí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ fún un, nígbà tí ó ti pa á láṣẹ láti dojúkọ Aṣkeloni àti agbègbè rẹ̀.”
