3 And you O Yahweh you know me you see me and you test heart my with you drag away them like sheep to slaughter and set apart them to a day of slaughter.

Ruo ole mgbe ka ala ga-eru ụjụ? Ruo ole mgbe ka ahịhịa dị nʼubi ga-anọgide na-akpọnwụ? Ụmụ anụmanụ na nnụnụ na-anwụchasị nʼihi na ndị bi nʼala ahụ bụ ndị na-emebi iwu. Ma ndị mmadụ ahụ na-ekwu sị, “Ọ gaghị ahụ ihe ga-adakwasị anyị.”
5 If with foot soldiers - you have run and they have made weary you and how? will you compete with the horses and in a land of safety you [are] falling to [the] ground and how? will you do in [the] thicket of the Jordan.
“Ọ bụrụ na ndị ji ụkwụ ha agba ọsọ emerie gị nʼọsọ nke gị na ha gbara, i si aṅaa chee na gị na ndị ji ịnyịnya agba ọsọ nwere ike ịgbakọta ọsọ ịsọ mpi? Ọ bụrụ na ị sọọ ngọngọ nʼala ebe udo dị, ị ga-esi aṅaa ghara ịsọ ngọngọ nʼọhịa dị nʼakụkụ osimiri Jọdan?
6 For also brothers your and [the] house of father your also they they have dealt treacherously with you also they they have called out after you full may not you trust in them for they speak to you good things.
Lee, ọ bụladị ụmụnne gị, ndị ezinaụlọ nke aka gị, ararala gị nye. Lee, ha eweliela oke olu iti mkpu megide gị. Atụkwasịla ha obi, ọ bụladị mgbe ha na-ekwu okwu ọma banyere gị.
7 I have forsaken house my I have abandoned inheritance my I have given [the] beloved one of self my in [the] hand enemies her.
“Aga m agbakụta ụlọ m na ihe nketa m họpụtara nye onwe m azụ. Aga m ewere onye ahụ m hụrụ nʼanya nyefee ya nʼaka onye iro ya.
8 It has become to me inheritance my like a lion in the forest it has given on me with voice its there-fore I hate it.
Ihe nketa m aghọrọọla m, ihe dịka ọdụm nọ nʼọhịa, Ọ na-agbọ ụja megide m; ya mere, m ji kpọọ ya asị.
9 ¿ A bird of prey speckled [is] inheritance my to me that [are] bird[s] of prey? all around on it go gather every animal of the field bring [them] for food.
Ọ bụ na ihe nketa m aghọbeghị nnụnụ ugo tụrụ agwa nye m nke ọtụtụ ugo gbara gburugburu na-emegide ya? Gaanụ, kpọkọta ụmụ anụ ọhịa niile, mee ka ha zukọọ bịa dọrie nri.
10 Shepherds many they have ruined vineyard my they have trodden down portion my they have made [the] portion of desire my into a wilderness of desolation.
Ọtụtụ ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ ebibiela ubi vaịnị m. Ha azọtọọla ubi m nʼokpuru ụkwụ, ha emeela ka ubi m mara mma ghọọ ọzara tọgbọrọ nʼefu.
11 He has made it into a desolation it is in mourning on me desolate it has been made desolate all the land for there not [is] anyone [who] puts [it] on heart.
Ha emeela ya ka ọ ghọọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu; e, ọ ghọọla ebe kpọrọ nkụ nʼebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu nʼihu m. Ala ahụ niile ga-atọgbọrọkwa nʼefu, nʼihi na o nweghị onye ọbụla ihe banyere ya na-emetụ nʼobi.
12 Over all [the] bare heights in the wilderness they have come destroyers for a sword of Yahweh [is] devouring from an end of [the] land and to [the] end of the land not peace [belongs] to any flesh.
Ndị mbibi ga-ejupụta nʼelu ebe niile dị elu nke ọzara, nʼihi na mma agha Onyenwe anyị ga-esite nʼotu nsọtụ ala ahụ ruo na nsọtụ nke ọzọ, ripịa ndị niile dị na ya. O nweghị onye ọbụla udo ga-adịrị nʼala ahụ.
13 People have sown wheat and thorns they have reaped they have wearied themselves not they have profited and be ashamed from produce your from [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh.
Ha ga-agha mkpụrụ ọka wiiti, maọbụ ogwu ga-epuru ha. Ha ga-adọgbu onwe ha nʼọrụ ma ha agaghị enweta ihe ọbụla. Ya mere, ka ihe ihere unu ghọtara dịka ihe ubi dịrị unu, nʼihi na ahụhụ ndị a sitere nʼiwe dị ọkụ nke Onyenwe anyị.”
14 Thus - he says Yahweh on all neighbors my evil who touch the inheritance which I gave as an inheritance people my Israel here I [am] about to pluck up them from on land their and [the] house of Judah I will pluck up from among them.
Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Ma banyere ndị agbataobi ọjọọ m ahụ niile, bụ ndị na-apụnara ndị m Izrel ihe nketa ahụ m nyere ha. Aga m esite nʼala ha hopu ha. Aga m esitekwa nʼetiti ha hopu ụlọ Juda.
15 And it will be after have plucked up I them I will return and I will have compassion on them and I will bring back them everyone to own inheritance his and everyone to own land his.
Ma mgbe m hopuchara ha, aga m emesịa meere ha ebere, meekwa ka onye ọbụla nʼime ha laghachikwa nʼobodo nke aka ya. Ha ga-enwetakwa ihe nketa ha niile.
16 And it will be certainly [if] they will learn [the] ways of people my to swear by name my [by] [the] life of Yahweh just as they taught people my to swear by Baal and they will be built in among people my.
Ọ bụrụkwa na ha amụta ụzọ niile nke ndị m nke ọma, na iji aha m ṅụọ iyi, na-asị, ‘Dịka Onyenwe anyị na-adị ndụ,’ dịka ha si kuziere ndị m iji aha Baal na-aṅụ iyi, aga m eme ka ha guzosie ike nʼetiti ndị m.
17 And if not they will listen and I will pluck up the nation that plucking up and destroying [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Ma ọ bụrụ na mba ọbụla ajụ ige ntị, aga m ehopu ha kpamkpam, laa ha nʼiyi.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
