Yeremia 30
1 Esia nye nya si va na Yeremia tso Yehowa gbɔ.
The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
2 “Ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ŋlɔ nya siwo katã megblɔ na wò la ɖe agbalẽ me’
“Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book.
3 Yehowa be, ‘Ŋkekewo li gbɔna, esi makplɔ nye dukɔwo Israel kple Yuda agbɔe tso aboyo me, eye magbugbɔ anyigba si metsɔ na wo fofowo be wòanye wo tɔ la na wo.’” Yehowa gblɔe.
For, behold, the days come,’ says Yahweh, ‘that I will reverse the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,’ says Yahweh. ‘I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.’”
4 Nya siawoe Yehowa gblɔ tso Israel kple Yuda ŋuti.
These are the words that Yahweh spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 “Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Wose vɔvɔ̃ ƒe avifafa, ŋɔdzi koe li, menye ŋutifafa o.
For Yahweh says: “We have heard a voice of trembling; a voice of fear, and not of peace.
6 Bia eye nàkpɔe ɖa be, Ɖe ŋutsu afɔ fu ahadzi via? Ekema, nu ka ta mekpɔ ŋutsu sesẽ ɖe sia ɖe le asi lilim eƒe ƒodo dzi abe nyɔnu si le ku lém ene, eye woƒe mowo fu tititi ale?
Ask now, and see whether a man travails with child. Why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned pale?
7 Alele, anye ŋkeke dziŋɔ eye ɖeke magasɔ kplii o! Anye xaxaɣi na Yakob, ke woaɖee le eme.”
Alas, for that day is great, so that none is like it! It is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he will be saved out of it.
8 Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la be, “Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, maŋe kɔkuti la le woƒe kɔwo eye maɖe ga wo, amedzrowo magado kluvi wo azɔ o.
It will come to pass in that day, says Yahweh of Armies, that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds. Strangers will no more make them their bondservants;
9 Ke boŋ woasubɔ Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la kple woƒe fia David, si maɖo na wo.
but they will serve Yahweh their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.
10 “Eya ta mègavɔ̃ o. O, nye dɔla Yakob. O Israel, wò mo megatsi dãa o.” Yehowae gblɔe. “Le nyateƒe me, makplɔ wò tso didiƒenyigba dzi, eye maɖe wò dzidzimeviwo hã tso aboyo me. Yakob aganɔ anyi le ŋutifafa kple dedinɔnɔ me eye ame aɖeke magado vodzi nɛ o.
Therefore don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says Yahweh. Don’t be dismayed, Israel. For, behold, I will save you from afar, and save your offspring from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return, and will be quiet and at ease. No one will make him afraid.
11 Meli kpli wò be maɖe wò.” Yehowae gblɔe. “Togbɔ be matsrɔ̃ dukɔ siwo katã me mekaka mi ɖo hã la, nyematsrɔ̃ miawo ya keŋkeŋ o. Nyemagblẽ mi ɖi tomahemahee ya o, mahe to na mi gake ɖe dzɔdzɔenyenye dzi.
For I am with you, says Yahweh, to save you; for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.”
12 “Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Wò abi la nye abi makumaku, eye nuvevi si wɔ wò la, womate ŋu adae o.
For Yahweh says, “Your hurt is incurable. Your wound is grievous.
13 Ame aɖeke meli aʋli tawò o, atike aɖeke meli na wò abi la o, eya ta dɔyɔyɔ hã meli na wò o.
There is no one to plead your cause, that you may be bound up. You have no healing medicines.
14 Wò lɔlɔ̃tɔwo katã ŋlɔ wò be, wometsɔ ɖeke le eme na wò o. Metu nu kpli wò abe ale si futɔ awɔ wòe ene, eye mehe to na wò abe ale si ŋutasẽla awɔe ene, elabena wò agɔdzedze lolo ŋutɔ, eye wò nu vɔ̃wo hã sɔ gbɔ.
All your lovers have forgotten you. They don’t seek you. For I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased.
15 Nu ka ŋutie nèle avi fam tso wò abi kple vevesese si dɔyɔyɔ meli na o la ŋuti? Le wò agɔdzedze gbogboawo kple wò nu vɔ̃ gbogboawo tae mewɔ nu siawo katã ɖe ŋutiwò ɖo.
Why do you cry over your injury? Your pain is incurable. For the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins have increased, I have done these things to you.
16 “‘Gake ame siwo katã vuvu wò la woavuvu wo, eye wò futɔwo katã ayi aboyo me. Ame siwo ha wò la, woaha woawo hã. Ame siwo wɔ wò abe afunyinuwo ene la, mawɔ woawo hã abe afunyinuwo ene.
Therefore all those who devour you will be devoured. All your adversaries, everyone of them, will go into captivity. Those who plunder you will be plunder. I will make all who prey on you become prey.
17 Ke mana nàhaya, eye mana wò abiawo naku, elabena woyɔ wò be saɖagatɔ, Zion si ame aɖeke mebiaa eta sena o.’” Yehowae gblɔe.
For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds,” says Yahweh, “because they have called you an outcast, saying, ‘It is Zion, whom no man seeks after.’”
18 “Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “‘Kpɔ ɖa, magaɖo Yakob ƒe aƒe ƒe nu nyuiwo te eye makpɔ nublanui na eƒe nɔƒewo; woagbugbɔ du la atso ɖe gli gbagbãwo teƒe eye woatu fiasã la ɖe eƒe nɔƒe xoxoa.
Yahweh says: “Behold, I will reverse the captivity of Jacob’s tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places. The city will be built on its own hill, and the palace will be inhabited in its own place.
19 Kafukafuha kple aseyetsogbe aɖi tso wo dome. Mana woadzi ɖe edzi eye wo dzi maɖe akpɔtɔ o. Made bubu wo ŋu eye womaɖi gbɔ̃ o.
Thanksgiving will proceed out of them with the voice of those who make merry. I will multiply them, and they will not be few; I will also glorify them, and they will not be small.
20 Wo viwo anɔ abe le blema ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me ene eye woƒe amehawo ali ke le ŋkunye me. Mahe to na ame siwo katã te wo ɖe to.
Their children also will be as before, and their congregation will be established before me. I will punish all who oppress them.
21 Woƒe kplɔla anye woawo ŋutɔ dometɔ ɖeka eye woƒe fia ado tso woawo ŋutɔ dome. Matee vɛ kpokploe eye wòate ɖe ŋunye nyuie. Elabena ame kae atsɔ eɖokui ana blibo be wòate ɖe ŋutinye kpokploe?
Their prince will be one of them, and their ruler will proceed from among them. I will cause him to draw near, and he will approach me; for who is he who has had boldness to approach me?” says Yahweh.
22 Ale be mianye nye dukɔ eye nye hã manye miaƒe Mawu.’” Yehowae gblɔe.
“You shall be my people, and I will be your God.
23 Kpɔ ɖa, Yehowa ƒe ahom atu sesĩe le dziku helĩhelĩ me, eye yali abla ɖe ta ŋu na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo kɔtɔɔ.
Behold, Yahweh’s storm, his wrath, has gone out, a sweeping storm; it will burst on the head of the wicked.
24 Yehowa ƒe dziku dziŋɔ la matrɔ adzo o, va se ɖe esime wòwɔ nu siwo katã le eƒe dzi dzi la de goe hafi. Le ŋkeke siwo gbɔna me la, miase nu sia gɔme.
The fierce anger of Yahweh will not return until he has accomplished, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.”
