< Jeremiah 51 >
1 The LORD says: “Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against those who dwell in Lebkamai, a destroying wind.
Ohùn ti Olúwa wí nìyìí: “Wò ó èmi yóò ru afẹ́fẹ́ apanirun sókè sí Babeli àti àwọn ènìyàn Lebikamai,
2 I will send to Babylon strangers, who will winnow her. They will empty her land; for in the day of trouble they will be against her all around.
Èmi yóò rán àwọn àjèjì ènìyàn sí Babeli láti fẹ́ ẹ, tí yóò sì sọ ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ di òfo; wọn yóò takò ó ní gbogbo ọ̀nà ní ọjọ́ ìparun rẹ̀.
3 Against him who bends, let the archer bend his bow, also against him who lifts himself up in his coat of mail. Don’t spare her young men! Utterly destroy all her army!
Má ṣe jẹ́ kí tafàtafà yọ ọfà rẹ̀, jáde tàbí kí ó di ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀. Má ṣe dá àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin sí; pátápátá ni kí o pa àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀.
4 They will fall down slain in the land of the Kasdim, and thrust through in her streets.
Gbogbo wọn ni yóò ṣubú ní Babeli, tí wọn yóò sì fi ara pa yánnayànna ní òpópónà.
5 For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah, by his God, by the LORD of Hosts; though their land is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel.
Nítorí pé Juda àti Israẹli ni Ọlọ́run wọn tí í ṣe Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, kò gbàgbọ́ bí o tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ilé wọn kún fún kìkì ẹ̀bi níwájú ẹni mímọ́ Israẹli.
6 “Flee out of the middle of Babylon! Everyone save his own life! Don’t be cut off in her iniquity, for it is the time of the LORD’s vengeance. He will render to her a recompense.
“Sá kúrò ní Babeli! Sá àsálà fún ẹ̀mí rẹ! Má ṣe ṣègbé torí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ. Àsìkò àti gbẹ̀san Olúwa ni èyí; yóò sán fún òun gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti tọ́.
7 Babylon has been a golden cup in the LORD’s hand, who made all the earth drunk. The nations have drunk of her wine; therefore the nations have gone mad.
Ife wúrà ni Babeli ní ọwọ́ Olúwa; ó sọ gbogbo ayé di ọ̀mùtí. Gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè mu ọtí rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ti ya òmùgọ̀ kalẹ̀.
8 Babylon has suddenly fallen and been destroyed! Wail for her! Take balm for her pain. Perhaps she may be healed.
Babeli yóò ṣubú lójijì, yóò sì fọ́. Ẹ hu fun un! Ẹ mú ìkunra fún ìrora rẹ, bóyá yóò le wo ọ́ sàn.
9 “We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed. Forsake her, and let’s each go into his own country; for her judgement reaches to heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.
“‘À bá ti wo Babeli sàn, ṣùgbọ́n kò lè sàn, ẹ jẹ́ kí a fi sílẹ̀, kí oníkálùkù lọ sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ torí ìdájọ́ rẹ̀ tó gòkè, ó ga àní títí dé òfúrufú.’
10 ‘The LORD has produced our righteousness. Come, and let’s declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.’
“‘Olúwa ti dá wa láre, wá jẹ́ kí a sọ ọ́ ní Sioni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ti ṣe.’
11 “Make the arrows sharp! Hold the shields firmly! The LORD has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes, because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it; for it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
“Ṣe ọfà rẹ ní mímú, mú àpáta! Olúwa ti ru ọba Media sókè, nítorí pé ète rẹ̀ ni láti pa Babeli run. Olúwa yóò gbẹ̀san, àní ẹ̀san fún tẹmpili rẹ̀.
12 Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon! Make the watch strong! Set the watchmen, and prepare the ambushes; for the LORD has both purposed and done that which he spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
Gbé àsíá sókè sí odi Babeli! Ẹ ṣe àwọn ọmọ-ogun gírí, ẹ pín àwọn olùṣọ́ káàkiri, ẹ ṣètò àwọn tí yóò sá pamọ́ Olúwa! Yóò gbé ète rẹ̀ jáde, òfin rẹ̀ sí àwọn ará Babeli.
13 You who dwell on many waters, abundant in treasures, your end has come, the measure of your covetousness.
Ìwọ tí o gbé lẹ́bàá odò púpọ̀, tí o sì ni ọ̀rọ̀ púpọ̀; ìgbẹ̀yìn rẹ ti dé, àní àsìkò láti ké ọ kúrò!
14 The LORD of Hosts has sworn by himself, saying, ‘Surely I will fill you with men, as with locusts, and they will lift up a shout against you.’
Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti búra fún ara rẹ̀, Èmi yóò fún ọ ní ènìyàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀pọ̀ eṣú, wọn yóò yọ ayọ̀, ìṣẹ́gun lórí rẹ.
15 “He has made the earth by his power. He has established the world by his wisdom. By his understanding he has stretched out the heavens.
“Ó dá ilẹ̀ nípa agbára rẹ̀, o dá ilẹ̀ ayé pẹ̀lú ọgbọ́n rẹ̀, o sì tẹ́ ọ̀run pẹ̀lú ìmọ̀ rẹ̀.
16 When he utters his voice, there is a roar of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain, and brings the wind out of his treasuries.
Nígbà tí ará omi ọ̀run hó ó mú kí òfúrufú ru sókè láti ìpẹ̀kun ayé. Ó rán mọ̀nàmọ́ná pẹ̀lú òjò, ó sì mú afẹ́fẹ́ jáde láti ilé ìṣúra rẹ̀.
17 “Every man has become stupid and without knowledge. Every goldsmith is disappointed by his image, for his molten images are falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
“Olúkúlùkù ènìyàn ni kò lọ́pọlọ tí kò sì ní ìmọ̀, olúkúlùkù alágbẹ̀dẹ ni a kó ìtìjú bá nípa òrìṣà rẹ̀. Àwọn ère rẹ jẹ́ ẹ̀tàn; wọn kò ní èémí nínú.
18 They are vanity, a work of delusion. In the time of their visitation, they will perish.
Asán ni wọ́n, àti iṣẹ́ ìsìnà, nígbà ìbẹ̀wò wọn, wọn ó ṣègbé.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like these, for he formed all things, including the tribe of his inheritance. The LORD of Hosts is his name.
Ẹni tí ó jẹ́ ìpín Jakọbu kó rí bí ìwọ̀nyí; nítorí òun ni ó dá ohun gbogbo, àti gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀yà ajogún, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀.
20 “You are my battle axe and weapons of war. With you I will break the nations into pieces. With you I will destroy kingdoms.
“Ìwọ ni kùmọ̀ ogun ohun èlò ogun mi, ohun èlò ìjà mi, pẹ̀lú rẹ èmi ó fọ́ orílẹ̀-èdè túútúú, èmi ó bà àwọn ilé ọba jẹ́.
21 With you I will break in pieces the horse and his rider.

22 With you I will break in pieces the chariot and him who rides therein. With you I will break in pieces man and woman. With you I will break in pieces the old man and the youth. With you I will break in pieces the young man and the virgin.

23 With you I will break in pieces the shepherd and his flock. With you I will break in pieces the farmer and his yoke. With you I will break in pieces governors and deputies.
Èmi yóò sì fi ọ́ fọ́ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, àti agbo àgùntàn rẹ̀ túútúú, èmi yóò sì fi ọ́ fọ́ àgbẹ̀ àti àjàgà màlúù túútúú, èmi yóò sì fi ọ́ fọ́ baálẹ̀ àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ túútúú.
24 “I will render to Babylon and to all the inhabitants of the Kasdim for all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight,” says the LORD.
“Ní ojú rẹ, èmi yóò san án fún Babeli àti gbogbo àwọn olùgbé inú rẹ̀ fún gbogbo ibi tí wọ́n ti ṣe ní Sioni,” ni Olúwa wí.
25 “Behold, I am against you, destroying mountain,” says the LORD, “which destroys all the earth. I will stretch out my hand on you, roll you down from the rocks, and will make you a burnt mountain.
“Mo lòdì sí ọ, ìwọ òkè apanirun ìwọ ti ba gbogbo ayé jẹ́,” ni Olúwa wí. “Èmi ó na ọwọ́ mi sí ọ, èmi yóò yí ọ kúrò lórí àpáta, Èmi yóò sọ ọ́ dàbí òkè tí a ti jó.
26 They won’t take a cornerstone from you, nor a stone for foundations; but you will be desolate forever,” says the LORD.
A kò ní mú òkúta kankan láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ lò gẹ́gẹ́ bí igun ilé tàbí fún ìpínlẹ̀ nítorí pé ìwọ yóò di ahoro títí ayé,” ní Olúwa wí.
27 “Set up a standard in the land! Blow the shofar amongst the nations! Prepare the nations against her! Call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz! Appoint a marshal against her! Cause the horses to come up as the swarming locusts!
“Gbé àsíá sókè ní ilẹ̀ náà! Fọn ìpè láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè! Sọ àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè di mímọ́ sórí rẹ̀, pe àwọn ìjọba yìí láti dojúkọ ọ́: Ararati, Minini àti Aṣkenasi. Yan olùdarí ogun láti kọlù ú, rán àwọn ẹṣin sí i bí ọ̀pọ̀ eṣú.
28 Prepare against her the nations, the kings of the Medes, its governors, and all its deputies, and all the land of their dominion!

29 The land trembles and is in pain; for the purposes of the LORD against Babylon stand, to make the land of Babylon a desolation, without inhabitant.
Ilẹ̀ wárìrì síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún, nítorí pé ète Olúwa, sí Babeli dúró, láti ba ilẹ̀ Babeli jẹ́ lọ́nà tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò ní lè gbé inú rẹ̀ mọ́.
30 The mighty men of Babylon have stopped fighting, they remain in their strongholds. Their might has failed. They have become as women. Her dwelling places are set on fire. Her bars are broken.
Gbogbo àwọn jagunjagun Babeli tó dáwọ́ ìjà dúró sínú àgọ́ wọn. Agbára wọn ti tán, wọ́n ti dàbí obìnrin. Ibùgbé rẹ̀ ni a ti dáná sun, gbogbo irin ẹnu-ọ̀nà wọn ti di fífọ́.
31 One runner will run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on every quarter.
Ìránṣẹ́ kan ń tẹ̀lé òmíràn láti sọ fún ọba Babeli pé gbogbo ìlú rẹ̀ ni a ti kó ní ìgbèkùn.
32 So the passages are seized. They have burnt the reeds with fire. The men of war are frightened.”
Odò tí ó sàn kọjá kò sàn mọ́ ilẹ̀ àbàtà gbiná, àwọn jagunjagun sì wárìrì.”
33 For the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says: “The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor at the time when it is trodden. Yet a little while, and the time of harvest comes for her.”
Ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sọ nìyìí: “Ọmọbìnrin Babeli dàbí ìpakà àsìkò láti kórè rẹ̀ kò ní pẹ́ dé mọ́.”
34 “Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon has devoured me. He has crushed me. He has made me an empty vessel. He has, like a monster, swallowed me up. He has filled his mouth with my delicacies. He has cast me out.
“Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli tó jẹ wá run, ó ti mú kí ìdààmú bá wa, ó ti sọ wá di àgbá òfìfo. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ejò, ó ti gbé wa mì. Ó fi oúnjẹ àdídùn wa kún inú rẹ̀, lẹ́yìn náà ni ó pọ̀ wá jáde.
35 May the violence done to me and to my flesh be on Babylon!” the inhabitant of Zion will say; and, “May my blood be on the inhabitants of Kasdim!” will Jerusalem say.
Kí gbogbo ìparun tí ó ṣe sí ẹran-ara wa wà lórí Babeli,” èyí tí àwọn ibùgbé Sioni wí. “Kí ẹ̀jẹ̀ wa wà lórí gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé Babeli,” ni Jerusalẹmu wí.
36 Therefore the LORD says: “Behold, I will plead your cause, and take vengeance for you. I will dry up her sea, and make her fountain dry.
Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Wò ó, èmi yóò tì ọ́ lẹ́yìn lórí ohun tí o fẹ́ ṣe. Èmi ó sì gbẹ̀san, èmi yóò mú kí omi Òkun rẹ̀ àti orísun omi rẹ̀ gbẹ.
37 Babylon will become heaps, a dwelling place for jackals, an astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.
Babeli yóò parun pátápátá, yóò sì di ihò àwọn akátá, ohun ẹ̀rù àti àbùkù, ibi tí ènìyàn kò gbé.
38 They will roar together like young lions. They will growl as lions’ cubs.
Àwọn ènìyàn inú rẹ̀ bú ramúramù bí ọmọ kìnnìún.
39 When they are inflamed, I will make their feast, and I will make them drunk, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake up,” says the LORD.

40 “I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with male goats.
“Èmi yóò fà wọ́n lọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn tí a fẹ́ pa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgbò àti ewúrẹ́.
41 “How Sheshach is taken! How the praise of the whole earth is seized! How Babylon has become a desolation amongst the nations!
“Báwo ni Ṣeṣaki yóò ṣe dí mímú, ìfọ́nnu gbogbo àgbáyé. Irú ìpayà wo ni yóò bá Babeli láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè!
42 The sea has come up on Babylon. She is covered with the multitude of its waves.
Òkun yóò ru borí Babeli, gbogbo rírú rẹ̀ yóò borí Babeli.
43 Her cities have become a desolation, a dry land, and a desert, a land in which no man dwells. No son of man passes by it.
Àwọn ìlú rẹ̀ yóò di ahoro, ilẹ̀ tí ó gbẹ, ilẹ̀ tí ènìyàn kò gbé tí ènìyàn kò sì rin ìrìnàjò.
44 I will execute judgement on Bel in Babylon, and I will bring out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up. The nations will not flow any more to him. Yes, the wall of Babylon will fall.
Èmi yóò fi ìyà jẹ Beli ti Babeli àti pé èmi yóò jẹ́ kí ó pọ gbogbo àwọn ohun tí ó gbé mì. Àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kì yóò jùmọ̀ sàn lọ pọ̀ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ mọ́. Ní òótọ́ odi Babeli yóò sì wó.
45 “My people, go away from the middle of her, and each of you save yourselves from the LORD’s fierce anger.
“Ẹ jáde kúrò nínú rẹ̀ ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi! Sá àsálà fún ẹ̀mí rẹ! Sá fún ìbínú ńlá Olúwa.
46 Don’t let your heart faint. Don’t fear for the news that will be heard in the land. For news will come one year, and after that in another year news will come, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ọkàn rẹ dàrú tàbí kí o bẹ̀rù nígbà tí a bá gbọ́ àhesọ ọ̀rọ̀ ní ilẹ̀ wa; àhesọ ọ̀rọ̀ kan wá ní ọdún yìí, òmíràn ní ọdún mìíràn àhesọ ọ̀rọ̀ ni ti ìwà ipá ní ilẹ̀ náà àti tí aláṣẹ kan sí aláṣẹ kejì.
47 Therefore behold, the days come that I will execute judgement on the engraved images of Babylon; and her whole land will be confounded. All her slain will fall in the middle of her.
Nítorí ìgbà náà yóò wá dandan nígbà tí èmi yóò fi ìyà jẹ àwọn òrìṣà Babeli; gbogbo ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ni a ó dójútì gbogbo àwọn tí a pa yóò sì ṣubú ní àárín rẹ̀.
48 Then the heavens and the earth, and all that is therein, will sing for joy over Babylon; for the destroyers will come to her from the north,” says the LORD.
Ọ̀run àti ayé àti gbogbo ohun tí ó wà nínú wọn, yóò sì kọrin lórí Babeli: nítorí àwọn afiniṣèjẹ yóò wá sórí rẹ̀ láti àríwá,” ni Olúwa wí.
49 “As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall, so the slain of all the land will fall at Babylon.
“Babiloni gbọdọ̀ ṣubú nítorí ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ni Israẹli, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ti a pa ní gbogbo ayé nítorí Babeli.
50 You who have escaped the sword, go! Don’t stand still! Remember the LORD from afar, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.”
Ẹ̀yin tí ó ti bọ́ lọ́wọ́ idà, ẹ lọ, ẹ má dúró. Ẹ rántí Olúwa ní òkèrè, ẹ sì jẹ́ kí Jerusalẹmu wá sí ọkàn yín.”
51 “We are confounded because we have heard reproach. Confusion has covered our faces, for strangers have come into the sanctuaries of the LORD’s house.”
“Ojú tì wá, nítorí pé àwa ti gbọ́ ẹ̀gàn: ìtìjú ti bò wá lójú nítorí àwọn àjèjì wá sórí ohun mímọ́ ilé Olúwa.”
52 “Therefore behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will execute judgement on her engraved images; and through all her land the wounded will groan.
“Nítorí náà, wò ó, ọjọ́ ń bọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “tí èmi yóò ṣe ìbẹ̀wò lórí àwọn ère fínfín rẹ̀, àti àwọn tí ó gbọgbẹ́ yóò sì máa kérora já gbogbo ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.
53 Though Babylon should mount up to the sky, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet destroyers will come to her from me,” says the LORD.

54 “The sound of a cry comes from Babylon, and of great destruction from the land of the Kasdim!
“Ìró igbe láti Babeli, àti ìparun láti ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Kaldea!
55 For the LORD lays Babylon waste, and destroys out of her the great voice! Their waves roar like many waters. The noise of their voice is uttered.
Nítorí pé Olúwa ti ṣe Babeli ní ìjẹ, ó sì ti pa ohun ńlá run kúrò nínú rẹ̀; àwọn ọ̀tá wọn sì ń hó bi omi púpọ̀, a gbọ́ ariwo ohùn wọn.
56 For the destroyer has come on her, even on Babylon. Her mighty men are taken. Their bows are broken in pieces, for the LORD is a God of retribution. He will surely repay.

57 I will make her princes, her wise men, her governors, her deputies, and her mighty men drunk. They will sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake up,” says the King, whose name is the LORD of Hosts.

58 The LORD of Hosts says: “The wide walls of Babylon will be utterly overthrown. Her high gates will be burnt with fire. The peoples will labour for vanity, and the nations for the fire; and they will be weary.”
Báyìí ní Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí: “Odi Babeli gbígbòòrò ní a ó wó lulẹ̀ pátápátá, ẹnu-bodè gíga rẹ̀ ní a ó sì fi iná sun: tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí àwọn ènìyàn ti ṣiṣẹ́ lásán, àti àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ti ṣiṣẹ́ fún iná, tí àárẹ̀ sì mú wọn.”
59 The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah to Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. Now Seraiah was chief quartermaster.
Ọ̀rọ̀ tí Jeremiah wòlíì pàṣẹ fún Seraiah, ọmọ Neriah, ọmọ Maseiah, nígbà tí o ń lọ ni ti Sedekiah, ọba Juda, sí Babeli ní ọdún kẹrin ìjọba rẹ̀. Seraiah yìí sì ní ìjòyè ibùdó.
60 Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come on Babylon, even all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
Jeremiah sì kọ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ ibi tí yóò wá sórí Babeli sínú ìwé kan, àní gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí tí a kọ sí Babeli.
61 Jeremiah said to Seraiah, “When you come to Babylon, then see that you read all these words,
Jeremiah sì sọ fún Seraiah pé, “Nígbà tí ìwọ bá dé Babeli, kí ìwọ kí ó sì wò, kí ìwọ kí ó sì ka gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí.

Kí ìwọ kí ó sì wí pé, ‘Olúwa ìwọ ti sọ̀rọ̀ sí ibí yí, láti ké e kúrò, kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe gbé inú rẹ̀, àti ènìyàn àti ẹran, nítorí pé yóò di ahoro láéláé.’
63 It will be, when you have finished reading this book, that you shall bind a stone to it, and cast it into the middle of the Euphrates.

64 Then you shall say, ‘Thus will Babylon sink, and will not rise again because of the evil that I will bring on her; and they will be weary.’” Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
Kí ìwọ sì wí pé, ‘Báyìí ní Babeli yóò rì, kí yóò sì tún dìde kúrò nínú ibi tí èmi ó mú wá sórí rẹ̀: àárẹ̀ yóò sì mú wọn.’” Títí dé ìhín ni ọ̀rọ̀ Jeremiah.
