< Jeremiah 33 >

1 And the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah, the second time, when he was yet imprisoned in the guard-court, saying:
Nígbà tí Jeremiah wà nínú àgbàlá túbú, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ ọ́ wá lẹ́ẹ̀kejì:
2 Thus, saith Yahweh, who doeth it, —Yahweh, who fashioneth it to establish it, Yahweh, is his name:
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ, ẹni tí ó dá ayé, Olúwa tí ó mọ ayé tí ó sì fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀, Olúwa ni orúkọ rẹ̀:
3 Call unto me that I may answer thee, —and tell thee things great and inaccessible, which thou hast not known.
‘Pè mí, èmi ó sì dá ọ lóhùn, èmi ó sì sọ ohun alágbára ńlá àti ọ̀pọ̀ ohun tí kò ṣe é wádìí tí ìwọ kò mọ̀ fún ọ.’
4 For, Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, Concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, —which are thrown down against the earthworks and against the sword:
Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Israẹli sọ nípa àwọn ilẹ̀ ìlú yìí àti ààfin àwọn ọba Juda tí ó ti wó lulẹ̀ nítorí àwọn ìdọ̀tí àti idà
5 In entering to fight with the Chaldeans, it is to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have smitten in mine anger and in mine indignation, —and because of whom I have hidden my face from this city, —by reason of all their wickedness.
nínú ìjà pẹ̀lú Kaldea: ‘Wọn yóò kún fún ọ̀pọ̀ òkú ọmọkùnrin tí èmi yóò pa nínú ìbínú àti nínú ìrunú mi. Èmi ó pa ojú mi mọ́ kúrò ní ìlú yìí nítorí gbogbo búburú wọn.
6 Behold me! laying upon her a bandage of healing, so will I heal them, —And will reveal to them abundance of prosperity and truth;
“‘Wò ó, èmi ó mú ọ̀já àti oògùn ìmúláradá dì í; èmi ó wo àwọn ènìyàn mi sàn. Èmi ó sì jẹ́ kí wọn ó jẹ ìgbádùn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ àlàáfíà àti òtítọ́.
7 And I will bring back Them of the captivity of Judah, and Them of the captivity of Israel, —And I will build them, as at the first;
Èmi ó mú Juda àti Israẹli kúrò nínú ìgbèkùn, èmi ó sì tún wọn kọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ṣe wà tẹ́lẹ̀.
8 And I will purify them, from all their iniquity wherewith they have sinned against me, —And I will grant pardon for all their iniquities Wherewith they have sinned against me, and Wherewith they have transgressed against me;
Èmi ó wẹ̀ wọ́n nù kúrò nínú gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí wọ́n ti ṣẹ sí mi. Èmi ó sì dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àìṣedéédéé wọn sí mi jì wọ́n.
9 So shall she become to me—A name of joy, A praise and An adorning, To all the nations of the earth, —Who will hear all the good which I am doing them, And will dread and be deeply moved over all the good and over all the prosperity which I am causing her.
Nígbà náà ni ìlú yìí ó fún mi ní òkìkí, ayọ̀, ìyìn àti ọlá níwájú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé; tí wọ́n gbọ́ gbogbo rere tí èmi ṣe fún wọn. Wọn ó sì bẹ̀rù, wọn ó wárìrì fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ oore àti àlàáfíà tí èmi pèsè fún wọn.’
10 Thus, saith Yahweh—Again, shall be heard in this place, as to which ye are saying, Deserted, it is without man or beast, In the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, Which are desolate without man or inhabitant or beast
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, ‘Ẹ̀yin yóò wí nípa ibí yìí pé, “Ó dahoro, láìsí ènìyàn tàbí ẹran.” Síbẹ̀ ní ìlú Juda àti ní òpópónà Jerusalẹmu tí ó dahoro, láìsí ẹni tó gbé ibẹ̀; ìbá à se ènìyàn tàbí ẹran, tí yóò gbọ́ lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí.
11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness The voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, The voice of them who are saying, Praise ye Yahweh of hosts, For good is Yahweh For age-abiding is his lovingkindness, The voice of them who are bringing a thank-offering into the house of Yahweh, —For I will bring back the captives of the land, as at the first, Saith Yahweh.
Ariwo ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn, ohùn ìyàwó àti ti ọkọ ìyàwó àti ohùn àwọn tí ó ru ẹbọ ọpẹ́ wọn nílé Olúwa wí pé: “‘“Yin Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, nítorí Olúwa dára, ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ dúró títí láéláé.” Nítorí èmi ó dá ìkólọ ilẹ̀ náà padà sí bí o ṣe wà tẹ́lẹ̀,’ ni Olúwa wí.
12 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Again, shall there be in this place—Which is deserted without man or even beast—And all the cities thereof, —The home of shepherds, causing flocks to lie down.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, ‘Ní ilẹ̀ yìí tí ó ti dahoro láìsí ọkùnrin àti àwọn ẹran nínú gbogbo ìlú, kò ní sí pápá oko fún àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn láti mú àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn wọn sinmi.
13 In the cities of the hill country, In the cities of the lowland, and In the cities of the South, and In the land of Benjamin, and In the places round about Jerusalem, and In the cities of Judah, Again shall the flock pass over the hands of the numberer, Saith Yahweh.
Ní ìlú òkè wọ̀n-ọn-nì, nínú ìlú àfonífojì, àti nínú ìlú ìhà gúúsù, àti ní ilẹ̀ ti Benjamini, ní ibi wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ó yí Jerusalẹmu ká, àti ní ìlú Juda ni agbo àgùntàn yóò tún máa kọjá ní ọwọ́ ẹni tí ń kà wọ́n,’ ni Olúwa wí.
14 Lo! days are coming, Declareth Yahweh, —when I will establish my good word, which I have spoken—As to the house of Israel And concerning the house of Judah:
“‘Àwọn ọjọ́ náà ń bọ̀,’ ni Olúwa wí, ‘tí èmi ó mú ìlérí rere tí mo ṣe fún ilé Israẹli àti ilé Juda ṣẹ.
15 In those days and at that time, will I cause to bud unto David A Bud of righteousness, —And he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land:
“‘Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì àti ní àkókò náà, Èmi ó gbé olódodo dìde láti ẹ̀ka Dafidi. Yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àti ohun tí ó tọ́ ní ilẹ̀ náà.
16 In those days, Judah shall be saved, and, Jerusalem abide, securely, —And, this, is that which shall be proclaimed to her—Yahweh, our righteousness!
Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, Juda yóò di ẹni ìgbàlà. Jerusalẹmu yóò sì máa gbé láìséwu. Orúkọ yìí ni a ó máa pè é Olúwa wa olódodo.’
17 For, Thus, saith Yahweh, —There shall not be wanting to David—A man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;
Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Dafidi kò ní kùnà láti rí ọkùnrin tí yóò jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ ní ilé Israẹli.
18 Nor to the priests the Levites, shall there be wanting—A man, before me, To offer an ascending-sacrifice, or To make a perfume with a gift, or To offer a [peace-] offering, all the days!
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àlùfáà tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ Lefi kò ní kùnà láti ní ọkùnrin kan tí ó dúró níwájú mi ní gbogbo ìgbà láti rú ẹbọ sísun; ẹbọ jíjẹ àti láti pèsè ìrúbọ.’”
19 And the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah saying:
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé:
20 Thus, saith Yahweh, If ye can break, My covenant of the day, and My covenant of the night, That there be not day and night in their season,
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ: ‘Tí ìwọ bá lè dá májẹ̀mú mi ní òru tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ọ̀sán àti òru kò lè sí ní àkókò wọn mọ́.
21 My covenant also, may be broken With David my servant, that he shall not have a son, to reign upon his throne, —And with the Levites the priests, mine attendants:
Nígbà náà ni májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi àti májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú Lefi tí ó jẹ́ àlùfáà, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ níwájú mi lè bàjẹ́, tí Dafidi kò sì rí ẹni láti jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀.
22 As, the host of the heavens, cannot be recorded, Nor the sand of the sea, be measured, So, will I multiply, The seed of David my servant, And the Levites who attend upon me.
Èmi ó mú àwọn ọmọ lẹ́yìn Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi àti Lefi tí ó jẹ́ oníwàásù níwájú mi di bí ìràwọ̀ ojú ọ̀run, tí kò ṣe é kà àti bí iyẹ̀pẹ̀ ojú Òkun tí kò ṣe é wọ́n.’”
23 And the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah, saying:
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé:
24 Hast thou not observed what, this people, have spoken saying, The two families which Yahweh did choose, he hath even cast them off? And so, my people, they despise, as though they could not again become a nation in their sight!
“Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ kò kíyèsi pé àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ń sọ pé: ‘Olúwa ti kọ àwọn ọba méjèèjì tí ó yàn sílẹ̀’? Nítorí náà, ni wọ́n ti ṣe kẹ́gàn àwọn ènìyàn mi. Wọn kò sì mọ̀ wọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí orílẹ̀-èdè kan.
25 Thus, saith Yahweh, If my covenant of day and night, the ordinances of the heavens and the earth, I did not appoint,
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Bí èmi kò bá ti da májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú ọ̀sán àti òru àti pẹ̀lú òfin ọ̀run àti ayé tí kò lè yẹ̀.
26 The seed of Jacob also and of David my servant, might I cast off so as not to take of his seed as rulers unto the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, —For I will bring back them of their captivity, and will have compassion upon them.
Nígbà náà ni èmi ó kọ ọmọ lẹ́yìn Jakọbu àti Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi tí èmi kò sì ní yan ọ̀kan nínú ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ láti jẹ́ alákòóso lórí àwọn ọmọ Abrahamu, Isaaki àti Jakọbu; nítorí èmi ó mú ìkólọ wọn padà; èmi ó sì ṣàánú fún wọn.’”
