Jeremiah 48
1 This is a message about Moab. The Commander of the armies of angels said: “Terrible things will happen to Nebo [town]; it will [soon] be ruined. Kiriathaim [city] will be captured and [all its people will be] humiliated; the high wall around their city will be ruined, and [its people] will become ashamed.
Nípa Moabu. Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: “Ègbé ni fún Nebo nítorí a ó parun. A dójútì Kiriataimu, a sì mú un, ojú yóò ti alágbára, a ó sì fọ́nká.
2 No one will boast about Moab again; the [enemies of Moab] will plan to destroy [the capital city, ] Heshbon. [They will say, ] ‘Come, let’s cause Moab to no longer be a nation.’ You people in Madmen [town], you also will be silenced; enemy armies [MTY] will pursue you.
Moabu kò ní ní ìyìn mọ́, ní Heṣboni ni wọn ó pète ìparun rẹ̀, ‘Wá, kí a pa orílẹ̀-èdè náà run.’ Àti ẹ̀yin òmùgọ̀ ọkùnrin pàápàá ni a ó pa lẹ́nu mọ́, a ó fi idà lé e yín.
3 Listen to the people of Horonaim [town] screaming; [they will be wailing because their town will have been] devastated and destroyed [DOU].
Gbọ́ igbe ní Horonaimu, igbe ìrora àti ìparun ńlá.
4 [All of] Moab will be ruined; [even] the little children will cry [loudly].
Moabu yóò di wíwó palẹ̀; àwọn ọmọdé rẹ̀ yóò kígbe síta.
5 They will cry bitterly as they climb up Luhith [Hill]. [Others will wail] on the road down to Horonaim, being very sad because of [their town being] destroyed.
Wọ́n gòkè lọ sí Luhiti, wọ́n ń sọkún kíkorò bí wọ́n ti ń lọ; ní ojú ọ̀nà sí Horonaimu igbe ìrora ìparun ni à ń gbọ́ lọ.
6 [Someone will say to them], ‘Flee! Hide in the desert!’
Sá! Àsálà fún ẹ̀mí yín; kí ẹ sì dàbí aláìní ní aginjù.
7 But you trusted that because you were rich and powerful, [you would be safe]; so you will be captured. [The statue of your god] Chemosh and all his priests and officials will be taken away to distant lands.
Níwọ́n ìgbà tí o gbẹ́kẹ̀lé agbára àti ọrọ̀ rẹ, a ó kó ìwọ náà ní ìgbèkùn, Kemoṣi náà yóò lọ sí ilẹ̀ ìgbèkùn pẹ̀lú àlùfáà àti àwọn aláṣẹ rẹ̀.
8 All the towns [in Moab] will be destroyed; none of them will escape. [Towns in] the valleys and on the plateau will [all] be destroyed, because [I, ] Yahweh, have said that is what will happen.
Gbogbo ìlú rẹ ni apanirun yóò dojúkọ, ìlú kan kò sì ní le là. Àfonífojì yóò di ahoro àti ilẹ̀ títẹ́ ni a ó run, nítorí tí Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀.
9 Spread salt on the ground in order that it will become a wasteland with [nothing growing there any more], and no one will be living in it!”
Fi iyọ̀ sí Moabu, nítorí yóò ṣègbé, àwọn ìlú rẹ yóò sì di ahoro láìsí ẹni tí yóò gbé inú rẹ̀.
10 Yahweh will curse anyone who will not eagerly do what he desires, anyone who refrains from using his sword to kill [MTY] others [in Moab].
“Ìfibú ni fún ẹni tí ó fi ìmẹ́lẹ́ ṣe iṣẹ́ Olúwa, ìfibú ni fún ẹni tí ó pa idà mọ́ fún ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
11 [The people of] Moab have always felt secure; they have never been (exiled/forced [by their enemies] to go to other countries). They are like [MET] wine that has been left undisturbed [in a container for many days to give it good flavor], so now it smells good, and it tastes good.
“Moabu ti wà ní ìsinmi láti ìgbà èwe rẹ̀ wá bí i ọtí wáìnì lórí gẹ̀dẹ̀gẹ́dẹ̀ rẹ̀, tí a kò dà láti ìgò kan sí èkejì kò tí ì lọ sí ilẹ̀ ìgbèkùn rí. Ó dùn lẹ́nu bí ó ti yẹ, òórùn rẹ̀ kò yí padà.
12 But Yahweh says that there will be a time when he will send [enemies to attack them]; they will get rid of the people of Moab like people pour out wine [on the ground] and then smash the wine jar.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọjọ́ ń bọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “nígbà tí n ó rán àwọn tí ó n da ọtí láti inú àwọn ìgò tí wọ́n ó sì dà á síta; wọn ó sọ àwọn ìgò rẹ̀ di òfo, wọn ó sì fọ́ àwọn ife rẹ̀.
13 Then [the people of] Moab will be ashamed of [their god/idol] Chemosh [because it did not help them], like the Israeli people were ashamed because their gold statue of a calf [was smashed] at Bethel.
Nígbà náà Moabu yóò sì tú u nítorí Kemoṣi, bí ojú ti í ti ilé Israẹli nígbà tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Beteli.
14 [The soldiers of Moab previously] said, “We are warriors; we have fought bravely in battles!”
“Báwo ni o ṣe lè sọ pé, ‘Ajagun ni wá, alágbára ní ogun jíjà’?
15 But now our King, who is Yahweh, who is called ‘the Commander of the armies of angels’, says that [the country of] Moab and all the towns in it will be destroyed. Their fine young men will [all] be slaughtered.
A ó pa Moabu run, a ó sì gba àwọn ìlú rẹ̀; a ó sì dúńbú àwọn arẹwà ọkùnrin rẹ̀,” ni ọba wí, ẹni tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun.
16 Moab will very soon be destroyed. It will soon experience disaster.
“Ìṣubú Moabu súnmọ́; ìpọ́njú yóò dé kánkán.
17 You [people who live in nations] near Moab, who know that it is very famous, should mourn for Moab, and say, “Its glorious power [MTY, DOU] is [completely] ended/broken.”
Ẹ dárò fún, gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ó yí i ká gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ẹ mọ bí ó ti ní òkìkí tó. Ẹ sọ pé, ‘Báwo ni ọ̀pá agbára rẹ títóbi tí ó sì lógo ṣe fọ́!’
18 You people of Dibon [city], stop being proud because of being honored, and sit in the dust/dirt, because those who will destroy other places in Moab will attack your [city] and destroy your high walls.
“Sọ̀kalẹ̀ níbi ògo rẹ, kí o sì jókòó ní ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ, ẹ̀yin olùgbé ọmọbìnrin Diboni, nítorí tí ẹni tí ó pa Moabu run yóò dojúkọ ọ́ yóò sì pa àwọn ìlú olódi rẹ run.
19 You people of Aroer [town], stand along the road and watch. Shout to the men and women who will be fleeing [from Moab], “What has happened [there]?”
Dúró lẹ́bàá ọ̀nà kí o sì wòran, ìwọ tí ń gbé ní Aroeri. Bí ọkùnrin tí ó sálọ àti obìnrin tí ó ń sá àsálà ‘Kí ni ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀?’
20 [They will reply], “Moab is ruined and [we are] disgraced!” [So] weep and wail [DOU]. Proclaim at the Aroer [River] that Moab has been destroyed.
Ojú ti Moabu nítorí tí a wó o lulẹ̀. Ẹ hu, kí ẹ sì kígbe! Ẹ kéde rẹ̀ ní Arnoni pé, a pa Moabu run.
21 [Yahweh] will have punished [the towns in Moab that are on] the (plateau/high level): Holon and Jahaz and Mephaath,
Ìdájọ́ ti dé sí àwọn òkè pẹrẹsẹ, sórí Holoni, Jahisa àti Mefaati,
22 Dibon and Nebo and Beth-Diblathaim,
sórí Diboni, Nebo àti Beti-Diblataimu,
23 Kiriathaim and Beth-Gamul and Beth-Meon,
sórí Kiriataimu, Beti-Gamu àti Beti-Meoni,
24 Kerioth and Bozrah, cities that are near [each other] and towns that are far away [from each other].
sórí Kerioti àti Bosra, sórí gbogbo ìlú Moabu, nítòsí àti ní ọ̀nà jíjìn.
25 Yahweh says, “The power [MTY] of Moab will be ended; [it is as though] [MET] Moab will have a broken arm.
A gé ìwo Moabu kúrò, apá rẹ̀ dá,” ni Olúwa wí.
26 [You people of] Moab have rebelled against [me, ] Yahweh; so [now] I will cause you all to [stagger like] [SIM] drunken people. [You people of] will wallow in your own vomit and be ridiculed.
“Ẹ jẹ́ kí a mú u mutí nítorí ó kó ìdọ̀tí bá Olúwa, jẹ́ kí Moabu lúwẹ̀ẹ́ nínú èébì rẹ̀, kí ó di ẹni ẹ̀gàn.
27 You [people of Moab] ridiculed [the people of] Israel [RHQ]. You treated them as though they were thieves [RHQ]. You shook your head at them scornfully and despised them [RHQ].
Ǹjẹ́ Israẹli kò di ẹni ẹ̀gàn rẹ? Ǹjẹ́ a kó o pẹ̀lú àwọn olè tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí o ń gbọn orí rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú yẹ̀yẹ́ nígbàkígbà bí a bá sọ̀rọ̀ nípa rẹ̀?
28 You people who live in Moab, you should abandon your towns and go and live in caves. Be like [SIM] doves that make their nests in the entrances of caves.”
Kúrò ní àwọn ìlú rẹ, kí o sì máa gbé láàrín àwọn òkúta, ẹ̀yin tí ó ti ń gbé inú ìlú Moabu. Ẹ dàbí i àdàbà tí ó kọ́ ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ sí ẹnu ihò.
29 We have [all] heard that [the people of] are very proud; they are extremely proud and conceited/arrogant. [IDM, DOU]
“A ti gbọ́ nípa ìgbéraga Moabu: àti ìwà mo gbọ́n tan rẹ̀ àti ìgbéraga ọkàn rẹ̀.
30 But Yahweh says, “I know about that, but it is useless for them to boast [because] it will accomplish nothing.
Mo mọ àfojúdi rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n òfo ni,” ni Olúwa wí, “ìfọ́nnu rẹ̀ kò lè ṣe nǹkan kan.
31 So [now] I will wail for Moab; I will cry about all its people. I will moan for the men of Kir-Hareseth [city], [the old capital of Moab].
Nítorí náà, mo pohùnréré ẹkún lórí Moabu fún àwọn ará Moabu ni mo kígbe lóhùn rara, mo kẹ́dùn fún àwọn ọkùnrin Kiri-Hareseti.
32 You people of Sibmah [city], you have many vineyards. [It is as though] the branches of your vines extend across the [Dead] Sea to Jazer [city].
Mo sọkún fún ọ bí Jaseri ṣe sọkún ìwọ àjàrà Sibma. Ẹ̀ka rẹ tẹ̀ títí dé Òkun, wọn dé Òkun Jaseri. Ajẹnirun ti kọlu èso rẹ, ìkórè èso àjàrà rẹ.
33 But no one will be joyful or happy in Moab now; your fruit and grapes that ripen in the (summer/hot season) will soon be destroyed. There will be no grape juice coming from the winepresses, [so] there will be no wine. People will not shout joyfully as they tread on the grapes; people will shout, but they will not be shouting joyfully.
Ayọ̀ àti ìdùnnú ti kúrò nínú ọgbà àjàrà àti oko Moabu. Mo dá ọwọ́ ṣíṣàn ọtí wáìnì dúró lọ́dọ̀ olùfúntí; kò sí ẹni tí ó ń tẹ̀ wọ́n pẹ̀lú igbe ayọ̀. Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé igbe wà, wọn kì í ṣe igbe ti ayọ̀.
34 Instead, the sound of their wailing will rise from Heshbon [city] to Elealeh [town] and Jahaz [village], from Zoar [city] as far as Horonaim [town] and Eglath-Shelishiyah [village]. Even the water in Nimrim [Stream] will be dried up.
“Ohùn igbe wọn gòkè láti Heṣboni dé Eleale àti Jahasi, láti Soari títí dé Horonaimu àti Eglati-Ṣeliṣi, nítorí àwọn omi Nimrimu pẹ̀lú yóò gbẹ.
35 [I, ] Yahweh, say that I will get rid of the people who offer sacrifices on the hilltops, and burn incense to their gods.
Ní ti Moabu ni èmi yóò ti fi òpin sí ẹni tí ó rú ẹbọ ní ibí gíga àti ẹni tí ń sun tùràrí fún òrìṣà rẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
36 I [SYN] moan for the people of Moab and Kir-Hareseth like [SIM] [someone playing a funeral song on] a flute, because [all] their wealth will disappear.
“Nítorí náà ọkàn mi ró fún Moabu bí fèrè, ọkàn mi ró bí fèrè fún àwọn ọkùnrin Kiri-Hareseti. Nítorí ìṣúra tí ó kójọ ṣègbé.
37 The men will shave their heads and their beards [to show that they are mourning]. They all will slash their hands and wear (rough cloth/sackcloth) around their waists.
Gbogbo orí ni yóò pá, gbogbo irùngbọ̀n ni a ó gé kúrò, gbogbo ọwọ́ ni a sá lọ́gbẹ́, àti aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ ní gbogbo ẹ̀gbẹ́.
38 In every home and in the town plazas/centers in Moab there will be [people who are] mourning, because I will have destroyed Moab like [SIM] someone smashes an [old] jar that no one wants [any more].
Ẹkún ńlá ní yóò wà lórí gbogbo òrùlé Moabu, àti ní ìta rẹ̀, nítorí èmi ti fọ́ Moabu bí a ti ń fọ́ ohun èlò tí kò wu ni,” ni Olúwa wí.
39 Moab will be completely shattered! And you will hear the people wailing loudly! They will be disgraced. Moab will become a nation that people ridicule. The people in nearby [countries] will be horrified [about what has happened there].
“Èéṣe tí ẹ fi fọ́ túútúú, tí ẹ sì fi ń pohùnréré ẹkún! Báwo ni Moabu ṣe yí ẹ̀yìn padà ní ìtìjú! Moabu ti di ẹni ìtìjú àti ẹ̀gàn àti ìdààmú sí gbogbo àwọn tí ó yìí ká.”
40 This is what [I, ] Yahweh, say: ‘Look! Their enemies will be swooping/rushing down over Moab like an eagle [SIM] swoops down [to seize an animal].
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Wò ó ẹyẹ idì náà ń fò bọ̀ nílẹ̀ ó sì na ìyẹ́ rẹ̀ lórí Moabu.
41 Its cities will be captured, its fortresses will be seized. [Even] their warriors will be [afraid], like [SIM] a woman who is about to give birth.
Kerioti ni a ó kó lẹ́rú àti ilé agbára ni ó gbà. Ní ọjọ́ náà ọkàn àwọn akọni Moabu yóò dàbí ọkàn obìnrin tí ó ń rọbí.
42 [The leaders of] Moab boasted against [me, ] Yahweh, so Moab will be destroyed.
A ó pa Moabu run gẹ́gẹ́ bí orílẹ̀-èdè nítorí pé ó gbéraga sí Olúwa.
43 [I, ] Yahweh, say that you people of Moab will be terrified, and fall into pits and traps.
Ẹ̀rù àti ọ̀fìn àti okùn dídè ń dúró dè yín, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Moabu,” ní Olúwa wí.
44 Those who are terrified and try to run away will fall into deep pits. Whoever climbs out of a pit will be caught in a trap, because I will punish them at the time that I have chosen.’
“Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá sá fún ẹ̀rù yóò ṣubú sínú ọ̀fìn ẹnikẹ́ni tí o bá jáde síta nínú ọ̀fìn ní à ó mú nínú okùn dídè nítorí tí èmi yóò mú wá sórí Moabu àní ọdún ìjìyà rẹ,” ní Olúwa wí.
45 The people will flee as far as Heshbon [city], but they will not be able to go any further, because a fire will burn in Heshbon, [which is the city] where [King] Sihon lived [long ago], and it will burn up all the people [SYN] in Moab who noisily/loudly boasted very much.
“Ní abẹ́ òjìji Heṣboni àwọn tí ó sá dúró láìní agbára, nítorí iná ti jáde wá láti Heṣboni, àti ọwọ́ iná láti àárín Sihoni, yóò sì jó iwájú orí Moabu run, àti agbárí àwọn ọmọ aláriwo.
46 [You people of] Moab, terrible things will happen to you! You people who worship [your god] Chemosh, you will be destroyed. Your sons and your daughters will be captured and taken away [to other countries].
Ègbé ní fún ọ Moabu! Àwọn ènìyàn orílẹ̀-èdè Kemoṣi ṣègbé a kó àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ lọ sí ilẹ̀ àjèjì àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ lọ sí ìgbèkùn.
47 But some day, I will enable the people of Moab to return to their land again. [That will surely happen because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.” That is the end of what I prophesied about Moab.
“Síbẹ̀, èmi yóò dá ìkólọ Moabu padà ní ọjọ́ ìkẹyìn,” ni Olúwa wí. Eléyìí ní ìdájọ́ ìkẹyìn lórí Moabu.
