< Jeremiah 47 >

1 That which hath been the word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh smiteth Gaza:
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tó tọ wòlíì Jeremiah wá nípa àwọn Filistini, kí ó tó di pé Farao dojúkọ Gasa.
2 'Thus said Jehovah: Lo, waters are coming up from the north, And have been for an overflowing stream, And they overflow the land and its fulness, The city, and the inhabitants in it, And men have cried out, And howled hath every inhabitant of the land.
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Wo bí omi ti ń ru sókè ní àríwá, wọn ó di odò tí ń bo bèbè mọ́lẹ̀. Wọn kò ní borí ilẹ̀ àti ohun gbogbo tó wà lórí rẹ̀, ìlú àti àwọn tó ń gbé nínú wọn. Àwọn ènìyàn yóò kígbe, gbogbo olùgbé ilẹ̀ náà yóò hu
3 From the sound of the stamping of the hoofs of his mighty ones, From the rushing of his chariot, the noise of his wheels, Fathers have not turned unto sons, From feebleness of hands,
nígbà tí wọ́n bá gbọ́ ìró títẹ̀lé pátákò ẹsẹ̀ ẹṣin alágbára nígbà tí wọ́n bá gbọ́ ariwo kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun ọ̀tá ńlá àti iye kẹ̀kẹ́ wọn. Àwọn baba kò ní lè ran àwọn ọmọ lọ́wọ́; ọwọ́ wọn yóò kákò.
4 Because of the day that hath come to spoil all the Philistines, To cut off to Tyre and to Zidon every helping remnant. For Jehovah is spoiling the Philistines, The remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
Nítorí tí ọjọ́ náà ti pé láti pa àwọn Filistini run, kí a sì mú àwọn tí ó là tí ó lè ran Tire àti Sidoni lọ́wọ́ kúrò. Olúwa ti ṣetán láti pa Filistini run, àwọn tí ó kù ní agbègbè Kafitori.
5 Come hath baldness unto Gaza, Cut off hath been Ashkelon, O remnant of their valley, Till when dost thou cut thyself?
Gasa yóò fá irun orí rẹ̀ nínú ọ̀fọ̀. A ó pa Aṣkeloni lẹ́nu mọ́; ìyókù ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, ìwọ yóò ti sá ara rẹ lọ́gbẹ́ pẹ́ tó?
6 Ho, sword of Jehovah, till when art thou not quiet? Be removed unto thy sheath, rest and cease.
“Ẹ̀yin kígbe, ‘Yé è, idà Olúwa, yóò ti pẹ́ tó tí ìwọ yóò sinmi? Padà sínú àkọ̀ rẹ; sinmi kí o sì dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́.’
7 How shall it be quiet, And Jehovah hath given a charge to it, Against Ashkelon, and against the sea shore? There hath He appointed it!'
Ṣùgbọ́n báwo ni yóò ṣe sinmi, nígbà tí Olúwa ti pàṣẹ fún un, nígbà tí ó ti pa á láṣẹ láti dojúkọ Aṣkeloni àti agbègbè rẹ̀.”
