< Jeremiah 13 >
1 Thus he said Yahweh to me go and you will buy for yourself a loincloth of linen and you will put it on loins your and in water not you must cause to go it.
Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị gwara m, “Gaa, zụta mgbado ukwu akwa ọcha nke a na-eke nʼukwu. Ị zụtachaa ya, kekwasị ya nʼukwu gị. Ma ekwekwala ka o metụ na mmiri.”
2 And I bought the loincloth according to [the] word of Yahweh and I put [it] on loins my.
Ejere m zụta ajị ahụ dịka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, kee ya nʼukwu m.
3 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me a second [time] saying.
Mgbe ahụ, okwu Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere m nke ugboro abụọ, sị m,
4 Take the loincloth which you bought which [is] on loins your and arise go Perath towards and hide it there in [the] cleft of the rock.
“Were ajị ahụ ị zụtara, nke i kekwasịrị nʼukwu gị, bilie, jee nʼosimiri Yufretis. I ruo, zoo ihe okike ukwu ahụ na mgbawa nkume dị nʼebe ahụ.”
5 And I went and I hid it at Perath just as he had commanded Yahweh me.
Ya mere, apụrụ m, jee, zoo ya na Yufretis dịka Onyenwe anyị gwara m.
6 And it was from [the] end of days many and he said Yahweh to me arise go Perath towards and take from there the loincloth which I commanded you to hide it there.
Mgbe ọtụtụ ụbọchị gasịrị, Onyenwe anyị gwara m okwu sị m, “Bilie, jeghachi Yufretis. I jeruo, wepụta ajị ahụ m sị gị zoo nʼebe ahụ.”
7 And I went Perath towards and I dug and I took the loincloth from the place where I had hidden it there and there! it was ruined the loincloth not it was profitable for anything.
Ya mere, agara m Yufretis, gwupụta ajị ahụ site nʼebe m zoro ya, ma mgbe m wepụtara ya, ahụrụ m na o mebiela, na ọ bakwaghị uru ọbụla.
8 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
Mgbe ahụ, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru m ntị, sị,
9 Thus he says Yahweh thus I will ruin [the] pride of Judah and [the] pride of Jerusalem great.
“Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Nʼotu aka ahụ, mụ onwe m ga-ebibi mpako Juda na oke mpako Jerusalem.
10 The people this wicked who are refusing - to hear words my who walk in [the] stubbornness of own heart their and they have walked after gods other to serve them and to bow down to them and let it be like the loincloth this which not it is profitable for anything.
Ndị ajọ omume ahụ, bụ ndị jụrụ ige ntị nʼokwu m, ndị ahụ na-ejegharị nʼisiike nke obi ha na-agbaso chi ndị ọzọ na-efe ma na-akpọkwa isiala nye ha. Ha ga-adịka belịt a, nke na-abakwaghị uru ọbụla.
11 For just as it clings loincloth to [the] loins of a person so I have made cling to me all [the] house of Israel and all [the] house of Judah [the] utterance of Yahweh to become for me a people and a name and praise and honor and not they listened.
Nʼihi na dịka belịt mmadụ kere nʼukwu ya si arapara ya nʼukwu, otu a ka m si mee ka ụlọ Izrel niile, na ụlọ Juda niile rapara m nʼahụ,’ ime ka ha ghọọ ndị m, ndị a ga-esite na ha bulie aha m elu, nye m otuto na nsọpụrụ. Ma ha ajụla ige ntị.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
12 And you will speak to them the word this. Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel every wineskin it will be filled wine and they will say to you ¿ really not do we know that every wineskin it will be filled wine.
Sị ha, “Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel kwuru: A ga-agbaju karama akpụkpọ ọbụla mmanya. Ọ bụrụ na ha sị gị, ‘Ọ bụ na anyị amaghị na a na-agbaju karama akpụkpọ ọbụla mmanya?’
13 And you will say to them thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to fill all [the] inhabitants of the land this and the kings who sit for David on throne his and the priests and the prophets and all [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem drunkenness.
Mgbe ahụ gwa ha, ‘Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, Aga m eme ka ndị bi nʼala a ṅụbiga mmanya oke, ma onye eze na-anọkwasị nʼocheeze Devid, ma ndị nchụaja, na ndị amụma niile bi na Jerusalem.
14 And I will smash them each to brother his and the parents and the children alike [the] utterance of Yahweh not I will show pity and not I will have mercy and not I will have compassion from destroying them.
Aga m atụpịakwa ha, otu onye nʼelu ibe ya, nna na ụmụ ya nʼelu ibe ha kwa. Agaghị m ekwe ka obi ọmịiko, maọbụ obi ebere gbochie m ibibi ha.’” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
15 Hear and give ear may not you be haughty for Yahweh he has spoken.
Nụrụnụ, geekwanụ ntị, unu ebulila onwe unu elu, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ekwuola ya.
16 Give to Yahweh God your glory before he will bring darkness and before they will stumble feet your on mountains of twilight and you will wait for light and he will make it into deep darkness (and he will make [it] *Q(K)*) into thick darkness.
Nyenụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nsọpụrụ. Tupu o mee ka ọchịchịrị dakwasị unu; tupu unu akpọbie ụkwụ unu nʼelu ugwu gbara ọchịchịrị. Unu na-ele anya ìhè ma ọ ga-eme ka ihe ahụ ghọọrọ unu oke ọchịchịrị. Ọ ga-agbanwe ihe ahụ, mee ka ọ ghọọ onyinyo ọnwụ.
17 And if not you will listen to it in secret places it will weep self my because of pride and utterly it will weep and it may run down eye my tear[s] for it has been taken captive [the] flock of Yahweh.
Ma ọ bụrụ na unu ajụ ige ntị. Ọ bụ na nzuzo ka m ga-anọ kwaa akwa nʼihi mpako unu. Anya mmiri ga-esi m nʼanya pụta; anya mmiri ga-esi na ya na-eruda nke ukwuu nʼihi na igwe atụrụ Onyenwe anyị ka a ga-adọta nʼagha.
18 Say to the king and to the queen-mother make low sit for it has come down [the] place of head your [the] crown of splendor your.
Gwanụ eze na nne eze okwu sị ha, “Sitenụ nʼocheeze unu rịdata, nʼihi na okpueze ọma unu ga-esi nʼisi unu dapụ.”
19 [the] cities of The Negev they have been shut up and there not [is one who] opens it has been taken into exile Judah all of it it has been taken into exile completeness.
A ga-emechi obodo niile nke Negeb. Ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-emeghe ha. A ga-adọtakwa Juda niile nʼagha buru ha kpamkpam buga ha nʼala ọzọ.
20 (Lift up *Q(K)*) eyes your (and see *Q(K)*) those [who] are coming from [the] north where? [is] the flock [which] it was given to you [the] sheep of beauty your.
Welienụ anya unu ka unu hụrụ ndị ahụ si nʼugwu na-abịa. Ebee ka igwe ewu na atụrụ ndị ahụ e tinyere unu nʼaka nọ, igwe ewu na atụrụ ahụ unu ji na-anya isi?
21 What? will you say that he will appoint over you and you you taught them over you close friends to chief ¿ not labor-pains will they seize you like a woman giving birth.
Gịnị ka ị ga-asị mgbe Onyenwe anyị mere ka ndị ahụ ị gụrụ dịka ndị enyi gị bịa buso gị agha? Ihe mgbu nke ga-abịakwasị gị ọ gaghị adị ka ihe mgbu na-abịakwasị nwanyị ime na-eme?
22 And if you will say in heart your why? have they happened to me these [things] in [the] greatness of iniquity your they have been uncovered skirts your they have suffered violence heels your.
Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-ajụkwa obi gị ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị mere ihe ndị a ji dakwasị m?” Ọ bụ nʼihi ịba ụba nke mmehie gị ka e ji dọwaa uwe mwụda gị, merụọ gị ahụ nʼakụkụ ahụ gị niile.
23 ¿ Will he change a Cushite skin his and a leopard spots its also you you will be able to do good O [those] trained to do evil.
Onye Kush ọ pụrụ ịgbanwe akpụkpọ ahụ ya? Agụ ọ pụrụ ịgbanwe akpụkpọ ahụ ya tụrụ agwa agwa? Nʼụzọ dị otu a kwa, unu ndị ihe ọjọọ riri ahụ apụghị ime ezi ihe.
24 And I will scatter them like chaff [which] passes away to [the] wind of [the] wilderness.
“Aga m efesasị unu dịka ahịhịa ọka kpọrọ nkụ, nke oke ifufe si nʼọzara na-ebugharị.
25 This [is] lot your [the] portion of measure your from with me [the] utterance of Yahweh that you have forgotten me and you have trusted in falsehood.
Nke a bụ ihe unu fetara na nza, oke nke m kwadoro si nʼaka m inye unu.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. “Nʼihi na unu echefuola m, tụkwasị obi unu na chi okwu ụgha dị iche iche.
26 And also I I will strip off skirts your on face your and it will be visible shame your.
Ya mere, aga m ekpughepụ uwe i yi nʼahụ, jiri ya kpuchie gị ihu, si otu a gbaa gị ọtọ. Ihere ga-emekwa gị.
27 Adulteri your and neighings your [the] wickedness of prostitution your on hills in the field I have seen detestable things your woe! to you O Jerusalem not you are clean after when? yet.
Mgbe ahụ, ịkwa iko gị niile ga-apụta ihe ya na agụụ ihe ọjọọ niile na-agụ gị, na ọnọdụ enweghị ihere nke ịgba akwụna gị niile! Nʼihi na ahụla m omume rụrụ arụ gị niile, nke ị na-eme nʼelu ugwu, na nʼime ọhịa. Ahụhụ dịrị gị, Jerusalem! Ruo ole mgbe ka ị ga-anọgide nʼime adịghị ọcha gị?”
