Jeremiah 49
1 Of the children of Ammon. Thus saith the LORD: Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? why then doth Malcam possess Gad, and his people dwell in the cities thereof?
Nke a dịrị ndị Amọn: Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Ọ bụ na Izrel enweghị ụmụ ndị ikom? Izrel o nweghị onye nnweta ihe o nwere? Gịnị mere Molek ji nweta obodo Gad? Gịnị mere ndị ya ji bichie obodo ya niile?
2 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the children of Ammon; and it shall become a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel possess them that did possess him, saith the LORD.
Ma ụbọchị ahụ na-abịa,” ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, “mgbe m ga-eme ka a nụ ụda iti mkpu agha, nke a ga-eti megide Raba, obodo ndị Amọn. A ga-eme ya ka ọ ghọọ mkputamkpu ebe. A ga-esurekwa ya ọkụ, ya na obodo nta niile gbara ya gburugburu. Mgbe ahụ Izrel ga-achụpụkwa ndị ahụ niile chụpụrụ ya.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
3 Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is spoiled; cry, ye daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth: lament, and run to and fro among the fences; for Malcam shall go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
“Kpọọ mkpu akwa, gị Heshbọn, nʼihi na ebibiela Ai! Tisienụ mkpu akwa ike unu ndị bi na Raba! Yirinụ uwe mkpe unu, tiekwanụ aka nʼobi nʼihi iru ụjụ; gbagharịanụ nʼogige mgbidi obodo unu, nʼihi na a ga-adọta Molek nʼagha, buru ya na ndị nchụaja ya na ndịisi ọchịchị ya gaa mba ọzọ.
4 Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys, thy flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? that trusted in her treasures, [saying], Who shall come unto me?
Gịnị mere unu ji anya isi nʼihi ndagwurugwu nke na-amị mkpụrụ hiri nne, gị ada nwanyị na-ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi, onye ntụkwasị obi ya dị nʼakụnụba ya, gị onye na-asị, ‘Onye ga-ebuso m agha?’
5 Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, from all that are round about thee; and ye shall be driven out every man right forth, and there shall be none to gather up him that wandereth.
Aga m esite nʼaka ndị niile gbara gị gburugburu mee ka oke egwu bịakwasị gị,” otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwupụtara ya, “A ga-achụpụ onye ọbụla nʼime unu. Ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-achịkọta ndị ahụ niile gbapụrụ agbapụ.
6 But afterward I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon, saith the LORD.
“Ma mgbe e mesịrị, aga m emekwa ka ndị Amọn laghachikwa nʼala ha.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
7 Of Edom. Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Is wisdom no more in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom vanished?
Nke dịrị Edọm: Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, “Ọ pụtara na onye amamihe adịghịkwa na Teman? Okwu ndụmọdụ ọ gwụla nʼọnụ ndị nwere nghọta? Amamihe ha o reela ure?
8 Flee ye, turn back, dwell deep, O inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I shall visit him.
Chigharịanụ gbalaga, unu ndị bi na Dedan. Gaa zoonụ onwe unu nʼọgba nkume miri emi, nʼihi na aga m eme ka ihe ọjọọ bịakwasị Ịsọ, nʼoge ahụ m ga-ata ya ahụhụ.
9 If grapegatherers came to thee, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? if thieves by night, would they not destroy till they had enough?
Ọ bụrụ na ndị na-aghọrọ mkpụrụ vaịnị abịakwute gị, ọ bụ na ha agaghị ahapụrụ gị mkpụrụ ole na ole? Ọ bụrụkwa na ndị ohi abịa nʼabalị, ọ bụghị naanị ihe ha chọrọ ka ha ga-akwakọrọ?
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is spoiled, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he is not.
Ma aga m agba Ịsọ ọtọ. Aga m ekpughe ebe nzuzo ya niile ka ọ ghara izobe onwe ya. Ụmụ ya na ndị ikwu ya, tinyere ndị ya na ha dị na mma na ndị agbataobi ya, ga-ala nʼiyi. Ya mere, ọ dịghịkwa onye ga-asị,
11 Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.
‘Hapụnụ ụmụ mgbei unu niile, nʼihi na mụ onwe m ga-edebe ha ndụ. Ndị inyom unu niile ndị di ha nwụrụ nwere ike ịtụkwasị m obi.’”
12 For thus saith the LORD: Behold, they to whom it pertained not to drink of the cup shall assuredly drink; and art thou he that shall altogether go unpunished? thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink.
Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Ọ bụrụ na e mere ka ndị ahụ na-ekwesighị ịṅụ ihe dị nʼiko ahụ ṅụọ ya, a ga-esi aṅaa ghara ịta gị ahụhụ? A ghaghị ịta gị ahụhụ; ị ghakwaghị ịṅụ site nʼiko ahụ.”
13 For I have sworn by myself, saith the LORD, that Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes.
“Eji m onwe m ṅụọ iyi, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, sị, na Bozra ga-aghọ mkpọmkpọ ebe, na ihe iju anya, na ihe ịta ụta, na ihe ịbụ ọnụ. Obodo ya niile ga-aghọkwa mkpọmkpọ ebe ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
14 I have heard tidings from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, [saying], Gather yourselves together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle.
Anụla m ozi si nʼọnụ Onyenwe anyị. E zipụla onyeozi ka ọ ga mba niile dị iche iche zie ha ozi, sị, “Chịkọtaanụ onwe, megide ya. Bilikwanụ maka ibu agha!”
15 For, behold, I have made thee small among the nations, and despised among men.
Ugbu a, aga m eme ka ị dị nta nʼetiti mba dị iche iche, ihe nlelị na-ebe mmadụ nọ.
16 As for thy terribleness, the pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill: though thou shouldest make thy nest as high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the LORD;
Ịdị egwu gị nke na-eyinye ndị mmadụ egwu, na nganga nke obi gị eduhiela gị, gị onye na-ebi na mgbawa niile nke nkume dị elu, gị onye ji ebe niile dị elu nke ugwu nʼaka ya. A sịkwarị na i wuo akwụ gị nʼebe dị elu, dịka ebe ugo ga-ewu akwụ ya, aga m esite nʼebe ahụ kpụdata gị nʼala, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
17 And Edom shall become an astonishment: every one that passeth by it shall he astonished, and shall hiss at all the plagues thereof.
“Edọm ga-aghọ ihe iju anya. Ndị niile na-esi nʼakụkụ ya agafe ga-anọ nʼọnọdụ iju anya, ha ga-eledakwa ya anya nʼihi ọnya ya niile.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD, no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man sojourn therein.
Dịka a kwaturu Sọdọm na Gọmọra, ya na obodo niile gbara ya gburugburu. Otu a kwa, ọ dịghị onye ọbụla ga-ebi nʼebe ahụ; nwa mmadụ ọbụla agakwaghị ebi nʼime ya,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
19 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the pride of Jordan against the strong habitation: but I will suddenly make him run away from her; and whoso is chosen, him will I appoint over her: for who is like me? and who will appoint me a time? and who is the shepherd that will stand before me?
“Aga m esi nʼala ya chụpụ Edọm nʼotu ntabi anya, dịka mgbe ọdụm na-esi nʼoke ọhịa Jọdan na-arịgopụta nʼebe ịta nri nke ụmụ anụmanụ jupụtara nʼahịhịa ndụ. Ma onye bụ onye ahụ a họpụtara, onye m ga-enyefe ọrụ a nʼaka ya? Onye dịka m? Onye kwa pụrụ ịpụta tụọ m aka nʼihu? Onye bụkwa onye ọzụzụ atụrụ ahụ nke pụrụ ido onwe ya megide m?”
20 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they shall drag them away, [even] the little ones of the flock; surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
Nʼihi nke a, nụrụ ihe Onyenwe anyị kwadobere megide Edọm, nụrụkwa ihe o zubere megide ndị bi na Teman. A ga-adọkpụrụ ndị dị nta nʼetiti igwe ewu na atụrụ ahụ, ebe ịta nri ha ga-anọ nʼọnọdụ mgbagwoju anya nʼihi nke a.
21 The earth trembleth at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise whereof is heard in the Red Sea.
Ụwa ga-ama jijiji mgbe ha nụrụ mkpọtụ ọdịda ha; iti mkpu akwa ha ga-adakwa ụda ruo nʼOsimiri Uhie.
22 Behold, he shall come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah: and the heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
Lee, otu ugo ga-efeli elu, fedatakwa. Ọ ga-agbasapụ nku ya kpuchie ala Bozra niile. Nʼụbọchị ahụ, obi ndị bu dike nʼagha nʼEdọm ga-adị ka obi nwanyị ime na-eme.
23 Of Damascus. Hamath is ashamed, and Arpad; for they have heard evil tidings, they are melted away: there is sorrow on the sea; it cannot be quiet.
Nke dịrị Damaskọs: “Ụjọ ejula Hamat na Apad obi, nʼihi na ha anụla akụkọ ọjọọ. Ha adaala mba, nọọkwa nʼoke echiche dịka osimiri nke ebili na-amagharị nʼelu ya.
24 Damascus is waxed feeble, she turneth herself to flee, and trembling hath seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
Damaskọs aghọọla onye ike gwụrụ. Ọ tụgharịala ịgbapụ ọsọ, ma ọma jijiji ejidela ya. Oke obi ụfụ na ihe mgbu ejidesiela ya aka ike, dịka obi ụfụ na ihe mgbu nke na-ejide nwanyị ime na-eme.
25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
Gịnị mere na-agbahapụbeghị obodo ahụ a maara aha ya, bụ obodo ahụ nke ihe ya na-atọ obi m ụtọ?
26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be brought to silence in that day, saith the LORD of hosts.
Nʼezie, ụmụ okorobịa nọ nʼime ya ga-ada nʼokporoụzọ niile, a ga-emekwa ka ndị agha ya niile dere duu nʼụbọchị ahụ.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri.
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
“Aga m esunye mgbidi Damaskọs ọkụ. Ọkụ ahụ ga-eripịakwa ebe e wusiri ike nke Ben-Hadad.”
28 Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote: Thus saith the LORD: Arise ye, go up to Kedar, and spoil the children of the east.
Banyere Keda na alaeze Hazọ, nke Nebukadneza eze Babilọn busoro agha: Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Bilienụ gaa buso Keda agha. Bibiekwanụ ndị ahụ niile bi nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ.
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take; they shall carry away for themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels: and they shall cry unto them, Terror on every side.
A ga-adọta ụlọ ikwu ha, na igwe ewu na atụrụ ha nʼagha. A ga-ebukọrọkwa ụlọ mgbochi ha niile, ya na ngwongwo na ịnyịnya kamel ha niile. Ndị mmadụ ga-etikwa mkpu sị ha, ‘Oke egwu dị nʼakụkụ niile!’
30 Flee ye, wander far off, dwell deep, O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the LORD; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.
“Gbalaganụ ọsịịsọ. Jeenụ nọdụ nʼime ọgba nkume niile miri emi, unu ndị niile bi na Hazọ,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara. Nebukadneza eze Babilọn atụọla atụmatụ megide unu, o chepụtakwala ụzọ ọ ga-esi megide unu.
31 Arise, get you up unto a nation that is at ease, that dwelleth without care, saith the LORD; which have neither gates nor bars, which dwell alone.
“Bilienụ, gaa buso mba ahụ agha, bụ mba ahụ na-ebi na ntụkwasị obi,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, “mba nke na-enweghị ibo ọnụ ụzọ, maọbụ mkpọrọ e ji akpọchi ya, mba ahụ nke ndị ya na-ebiri naanị onwe ha.
32 And their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil: and I will scatter unto all winds them that have the corners [of their hair] polled; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them, saith the LORD.
Ịnyịnya kamel ha ga-abụ ihe a ga-akwata nʼagha, ọtụtụ igwe ehi ha ga-abụkwa ihe a ga-alụta nʼagha. Aga m efesa ha nye ifufe, bụ ndị niile nọ ebe dị anya, bụ ndị ahụ niile na-akpụchapụ agịrị isi egedege ihu ha. Aga m emekwa ka ihe ọjọọ si nʼakụkụ niile bịakwasị ha,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation for ever: no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man sojourn therein.
“Mgbe ahụ, Hazọ ga-aghọ ebe obibi nke nkịta ọhịa. Ọ ga-aghọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. O nweghị onye ọbụla ga-ebi nʼebe ahụ, nwa mmadụ ọbụla agakwaghị ebi nʼime ya.”
34 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
Nke a bụ okwu Onyenwe anyị ndị ruru Jeremaya onye amụma ntị banyere Elam, mgbe Zedekaya eze Juda bidoro ọchịchị ya.
35 Thus saith the LORD of hosts: Behold, I will break the bow of Elam; the chief of their might.
Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, “Lee, aga m agbaji ụta nke Elam, bụ ụta ahụ ha ji anya isi na ọ bụ ebe ike ha dị.
36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
Aga m esite nʼakụkụ anọ nke mbara eluigwe zite oke ifufe anọ, nke ga-abịa megide Elam. Aga m efesa ha nye oke ifufe anọ ndị a, ndị ga-ebufu ha buga ha na mba niile dị iche iche, ọ dịghị obodo a na-agaghị ahụ ndị Ilam a dọtara nʼagha.
37 And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life: and I will bring evil upon them, even my fierce anger, saith the LORD; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them:
Aga m etipịa Elam nʼihu ndị iro ha, e, nʼihu ndị ahụ na-achọsi ndụ ya ike. Aga m eme ka ihe ọjọọ bịakwasị ha, meekwa ka oke iwe m dị ọkụ bịakwasị ha,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. “Aga m eji mma agha chụọ ha ọsọ tutu ruo mgbe m mere ka ha niile gwụsịa.
38 and I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith the LORD.
Aga m edo ocheeze m nʼElam, bibiekwa eze ya na ndịisi ọchịchị ya,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
39 But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captivity of Elam, saith the LORD.
“Ma nʼikpeazụ, nʼụbọchị ndị ahụ na-abịa, aga m eweghachite akụnụba niile nke Elam.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
