1 Le Yosia ƒe vi, Yehoyakim, Yuda fia ƒe ƒe enelia me si nye Babilonia fia Nebukadnezar ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ me la, Yehowa ƒe nya va na Yeremia ku ɖe Yuda dukɔ la ŋu.
THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS concerning all the people of Juda in the fourth year of Joakim, son of Josias, king of Juda;
2 Eya ta nyagblɔɖila Yeremia, gblɔ na Yudatɔwo katã kple ame siwo nɔ Yerusalem la be:
which he spoke to all the people of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying,
3 Ƒe blaeve-vɔ-etɔ̃ sɔŋ nye esi mele nu ƒom na mi. Tso keke Amon ƒe vi Yosia, Yuda fia ƒe ƒe wuietɔ̃lia me va se ɖe fifia, Yehowa ƒe nya va nam, eye megblɔe na mi enuenu, gake mieɖo to o.
In the thirteenth year of Josias, son of Amos, king of Juda, even until this day for three and twenty years, I have both spoken to you, rising early and speaking,
4 Togbɔ be Yehowa dɔ eƒe dɔla nyagblɔɖilawo ɖo ɖe mi zi geɖe hã la, mieɖo to alo mietsɔ ɖeke le eme na wo o.
and I sent to you my servants the prophets, sending them early; (but you listened not, and listened not with your ears; ) saying,
5 Wogblɔ be, “Mitrɔ azɔ, mia dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe, tso miaƒe mɔ vɔ̃wo dzi kple miaƒe nu tovowo wɔwɔ me, be miate ŋu anɔ anyigba si Yehowa tsɔ na mi la dzi, miawo ŋutɔ kple mia fofowo, tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me.
Turn you every one from his evil way, and from your evil practices, and you shall dwell in the land which I gave to you and your fathers, of old and for ever.
6 Migadze mawu tutɔwo yome, ahayi wo subɔ ge o. Migade ta agu na wo o, migado dziku nam kple nu siwo miaƒe asiwo wɔ la o. Ekema nyemawɔ nuvevi mi o.”
Go you not after strange gods, to serve them, and to worship them, that you provoke me not by the works of your hands, to do you hurt.
7 Yehowa be, “Gake mieɖo tom o eye mietsɔ nu siwo miawo ŋutɔ ƒe asiwo wɔ la do dziku nam eye miehe vɔ̃ va mia ɖokuiwo dzii.”
But you listened not to me.
8 Eya ta ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: “Esi mieɖo to nye nyawo o ta la,
Therefore thus says the Lord; Since you believed not my words,
9 mayɔ anyiehemetɔwo katã, kple nye dɔla Nebukadnezar, Babilonia fia aƒo ƒu, woatso ɖe anyigba sia, edzinɔlawo kple dukɔ siwo katã ƒo xlãe la ŋuti. Matsrɔ̃ wo gbidigbidi, awɔ wo woanye ŋɔdzinu kple fewuɖunu, eye woazu aƒedo tegbetegbe.
behold I [will] send and take a family from the north, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants of it, and against all the nations round about it, and I will make them utterly waste, and make them a desolation, and a hissing, and an everlasting reproach.
10 Mana dzidzɔ kple aseyetsotso nu natso eye womagase ŋugbetɔ kple ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ ƒe gbe alo te ƒe gbe alo woakpɔ akaɖi wòaganɔ keklẽm o.
And I will destroy from [among] them the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the scent of ointment, and the light of a candle.
11 Anyigba sia katã azu aƒedo kple gbegbe eye dukɔ sia asubɔ Babilonia fia ƒe blaadre sɔŋ” Yehowae gblɔe.
And all the land shall be a desolation; and they shall serve among the Gentiles seventy years.
12 Yehowa be, “Ke ne ƒe blaadre la de la, mahe to na Babilonia fia kple eƒe dukɔ, Babiloniatɔwo ɖe woƒe agɔdzedze ta eye mawɔ woƒe anyigba wòazu gbegbe tegbetegbe.
And when the seventy years are fulfilled, I will take vengeance on that nation, and will make them a perpetual desolation.
13 Mana nu siwo katã megblɔ ɖi ɖe anyigba ma ŋuti, nu siwo katã woŋlɔ ɖe agbalẽ sia me kple esiwo Yeremia gblɔ ɖi ɖe dukɔwo ŋuti la nava wo dzi.
And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have spoken against it, [even] all things that are written in this book.
14 Woawo ŋutɔ la, dukɔ geɖewo kple fia xɔŋkɔwo awɔ wo kluviwoe. Maɖo eteƒe na wo ɖe woƒe nuwɔnawo nu kple nu siwo woƒe asiwo wɔ la ta.”

35 Alẽkplɔlawo makpɔ teƒe aɖeke asi yi o, eye alẽhawo ƒe kplɔlawo manya afi si woabe ɖo o.
Thus says the Lord, The bow of Aelam is broken, [even] the chief of their power.
36 Se alẽkplɔlawo ƒe aviɣli ɖa; ɖo to kplɔlawo ƒe ɣlidodo, elabena Yehowa le woƒe lãnyiƒe la tsrɔ̃m.
And I will bring upon Aelam the four winds from the four corners of heaven, and I will disperse them toward all these winds; and there shall be no nation [to] which they shall not come—[even] the outcasts of Aelam.
37 Gbe dama nyuiwo azu kuɖiɖinyigba le Yehowa ƒe dziku dziŋɔ la ta.
And I will put them in fear before their enemies that seek their life; and I will bring evils upon them according to my great anger; and I will send forth my sword after them, until I have utterly destroyed them.
38 Agblẽ eƒe ave ɖi abe dzata ene, eye woƒe anyigba azu gbegbe le ameteɖetola ƒe yi kple Yehowa ƒe dziku helĩhelĩ la ta.
And I will set my throne in Aelam, and will send forth thence king and rulers.
But it shall come to pass at the end of days, that I will turn the captivity of Aelam, says the Lord.
