Yeremia 19
1 Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Yi ɖaƒle ze le zemela si; kplɔ dumegã kple nunɔla tsitsi aɖewo ɖe asi,
The Lord seith these thingis, Go thou, and take an erthene potel of a pottere, of the eldre men of the puple, and of the eldre men of preestis.
2 ne miayi ɖe Ben Hinom ƒe Balime si te ɖe agbo si woyɔna be Zemegbo la ŋu. Le afi ma la, ɖe gbeƒã nya siwo magblɔ na wò.
And go thou out to the valei of the sones of Ennon, which is bisidis the entring of the erthene yate; and there thou schalt preche the wordis whiche Y schal speke to thee;
3 Gblɔ be, ‘Mise Yehowa ƒe nya. O mi Yuda fiawo kple Yerusalem nɔlawo, ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: Miɖo to afii! Mele gbegblẽ he ge ava teƒe sia eye ame sia ame si ase nya sia la ƒe towo me aɖi yeeŋ.
and thou schalt seie, Kyngis of Juda, and the dwelleris of Jerusalem, here ye the word of the Lord. The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe in turment on this place, so that ech man that herith it, hise eeris tyngle.
4 Elabena wogblẽm ɖi hetsɔ teƒe sia wɔ dzromawuwo ƒe nɔƒee. Wodo dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ na mawu siwo woawo ŋutɔ, wo fofowo alo Yuda fiawo gɔ̃ hã menya o. Ale teƒe sia yɔ fũu kple ʋu maɖifɔwo.
For thei han forsake me, and maad alien this place, and offriden sacrifices to alien goddis ther ynne, whiche thei, and the fadris of hem, and the kingis of Juda, knewen not; and thei filliden this place with the blood of innocentis,
5 Wotu nuxeƒewo na Baal be woatɔ dzo woƒe ŋutsuviwo le afi ma abe vɔsa na Baal ene, nu si nyemeɖo na wo alo gblɔ na wo kaka wòayi nye ta me va ge o.
and bildiden hiy thingis to Baalym, to brenne her sones in fier, in to brent sacrifice to Baalym; whiche thingis Y comaundide not, nether spak, nether tho stieden in to myn herte.
6 Eya ta Yehowa be mikpɔ nyuie elabena ŋkekewo li gbɔna, esi amewo magayɔ teƒe sia be Tofet alo Ben Hinom ƒe Balime o, ke boŋ woayɔe be Kubalime.
Therfor the Lord seith, Lo! daies comen, and this place schal no more be clepid Tophet, and the valei of the sone of Ennon, but the valei of sleyng.
7 “‘Magblẽ Yuda kple Yerusalem ƒe ɖoɖowo me le teƒe sia. Mana woadze anyi le woƒe futɔwo ŋgɔ, ahatsi woƒe yi nu. Ɛ̃, woatsi ame siwo le woƒe agbe yome tim la ƒe asi me, eye matsɔ woƒe ŋutilã kukuawo awɔ nuɖuɖu na dziƒoxeviwo kple lã wɔadãwo.
And Y schal distrie the councel of Juda and of Jerusalem in this place, and Y schal distrie hem bi swerd, in the siyt of her enemyes, and in the hond of men sekynge the lyues of hem; and Y schal yyue her deed bodies mete to the briddis of the eir, and to beestis of erthe.
8 Magbã du sia gudugudu eye mana wòazu alɔmeɖenu. Ame siwo katã ato afi ma ayi la ƒe mo awɔ yaa eye woaɖu fewu le eŋu le ale si wogbãe la ta.
And Y schal sette this citee in to wondring, and in to hissing; ech that passith bi it, schal wondre, and hisse on al the veniaunce therof.
9 Mana woalé wo viŋutsuwo kple wo vinyɔnuwo aɖa aɖu. Woalé wo nɔewo aɖu le xaxa gã si ava wo dzi ne woƒe futɔ siwo le woƒe agbe yome tim la ɖe to ɖe wo?’
And Y schal feede hem with the fleischis of her sones, and with the fleischis of her douytris; and ech man schal ete the fleischis of his frend in the bisegyng and angwisch, in which the enemyes of hem, and thei that seken the lyues of hem, schulen close hem togidere.
10 “Emegbe, gbã ze la le ame siwo nèkplɔ ɖe asi la ŋkume,
And thou schalt al to-breke the potel bifore the iyen of the men, that schulen go with thee.
11 eye nàgblɔ na wo be, ‘Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Magbã dukɔ sia kple du sia gudugudu abe ale si zemela ƒe ze sia gbãe eye womagate ŋu atree o la ene. Woaɖi woƒe ame kukuwo ɖe Tofet va se ɖe esime teƒe maganɔ anyi o.
And thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, So Y schal al to-breke this puple, and this citee, as the vessel of a pottere is al to-brokun, which mai no more be restorid; and thei schulen be biried in Tophet, for noon other place is to birie.
12 Yehowa be, aleae mawɔ teƒe sia kple emenɔlawo katãe. Mawɔ du sia abe Tofet ene.
So Y schal do to this place, seith the Lord, and to dwelleris therof, that Y sette this citee as Tophet.
13 Aƒe siwo le Yerusalem kple Yuda fiawo ƒe aƒewo la, woagblẽ kɔ ɖo na wo abe Tofet ƒe nɔƒe ene ɖe aƒe siwo katã ƒe tame wodo dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le na dziƒoŋunuwo le eye woƒo aha ɖi na mawu bubuwo la ta.’”
And the housis of Jerusalem, and the housis of the kingis of Juda, schulen be as the place of Tophet; alle the vncleene housis, in whose roouys thei sacrifieden to al the chyualrie of heuene, and offriden moist sacrifices to alien goddis.
14 Tete Yeremia trɔ tso Tofet, afi si Yehowa dɔe ɖo be wòagblɔ nya ɖi heva tsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe aƒe la ƒe xɔxɔnu eye wògblɔ na ameha la bena,
Forsothe Jeremye cam fro Tophet, whidur the Lord hadde sente hym for to profesie; and he stood in the porche of the hous of the Lord,
15 “Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ kple Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Kpɔ ɖa, mahe gbegblẽ siwo megblɔ ɖi ɖe du sia kple du bubu siwo ƒo xlãe ŋuti la ava wo dzi elabena wonye kɔlialiatɔwo eye wogbe be yewomaɖo to nye nyawo o.’”
and seide to al the puple, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal bringe in on this citee, and on alle the citees therof, alle the yuelis whiche Y spak ayens it; for thei maden hard her nol, that thei herden not my wordis.
