1 “Ọ bụrụ na unu bụ Izrel, ga-alọta, ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, mụ ka ị ga-alọghachikwute,” “Ọ bụrụ na unu ewezuga arụsị ndị ahụ rụrụ arụ site nʼihu m, hapụ isi ebe m nọ kpafuo,
Israel, if thou turnest ayen, seith the Lord, turne thou to me; if thou takist awei thin offendyngis fro my face, thou schalt not be mouyd.
2 ọ bụrụkwa na unu ga-eji eziokwu, ikpe ziri ezi na ụzọ ezi omume ṅụọ iyi sị, ‘Dịka Onyenwe anyị na-adị ndụ,’ mgbe ahụ mba niile ga-agọzi onwe ha site na ya nyakwaa isi nʼime ya.”
And thou schalt swere, The Lord lyueth, in treuthe and in doom and in riytfulnesse; and alle folkis schulen blesse hym, and schulen preise hym.
3 Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị na-agwa ndị Juda na Jerusalem sị, “Kọzeenụ ala ubi unu nke unu na-akọbeghị; unu akụnyela mkpụrụ ubi unu nʼetiti ogwu.
For the Lord God seith these thingis to a man of Juda and to a dwellere of Jerusalem, Make ye newe to you a lond tilid of the newe, and nyle ye sowe on thornes.
4 Bienụ onwe unu ugwu nye Onyenwe anyị, biekwanụ mkpụrụobi unu ugwu, unu ndị Juda na ndị bi na Jerusalem ma ọ bụghị otu a, iwe m ga-abịakwasị unu dịka ọkụ, nʼihi ihe ọjọọ niile unu mere, ọ ga-ere ma ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-emenyụ ya.
Men of Juda, and dwelleris of Jerusalem, be ye circumcidid to the Lord, and do ye awey the filthis of youre hertis; lest perauenture myn indignacioun go out as fier, and be kyndlid, and noon be that quenche, for the malice of youre thouytis.
5 “Kwupụta ya na Juda, kwusaa ya na Jerusalem sị, ‘Fụọnụ opi nʼala ahụ niile.’ Tienụ mkpu nʼụzọ mmadụ ga-aghọta ya. Gwanụ ndị Juda na Jerusalem ka ha zukọtaa gbaga nʼobodo ndị ahụ niile e wusiri ike.
Telle ye in Juda, and make ye herd in Jerusalem; speke ye, and synge ye with a trumpe in the lond; crye ye strongli, and seie ye, Be ye gaderid togidere, and entre we in to stronge citees.
6 Bulie ihe i gosi ụzọ ị ga Zayọn! Gbaganụ zoo onwe unu. Unu atụfula oge! Lee na mụ onwe m na-ewebata mbibi na ịla nʼiyi site nʼakụkụ ugwu.”
Reise ye a signe in Sion, coumforte ye, and nyle ye stonde; for Y bringe yuel fro the north, and a greet sorewe.
7 Dịka ọdụm si nʼebe o zoro onwe ya amapụta, ka onye a na-ebibi mba niile si abịa. Ọ hapụla ebe obibi ya, na-abịa ịla Juda nʼiyi. Ọ ga-etidasị obodo niile nke Juda, ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-ebi nʼime ha.
A lioun schal `rise vp fro his denne, and the robbere of folkis schal reise hym silf. He is goon out of his place, to sette thi lond in to wildirnesse; thi citees schulen be distried, abidynge stille with out dwellere.
8 Ya mere, yikwasịnụ onwe unu uwe mkpe; kwaanụ akwa, tiekwanụ mkpu akwa, nʼihi na ọnụma Onyenwe anyị esitebeghị nʼebe Juda nọ wezuga onwe ya.
On this thing girde you with heiris; weile ye, and yelle, for the wraththe of the strong veniaunce of the Lord is not turned awei fro you.
9 “Nʼụbọchị ahụ,” ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, “Obi ndị eze na ndịisi ọchịchị ga-ada mba; ahụ ga-akpọnwụ ndị nchụaja, otu a kwa, ihe ga-eme ga-eju ndị amụma anya.”
And it schal be, in that dai, seith the Lord, the herte of the king schal perische, and the herte of princis; and the prestis schulen wondre, and the prophetis schulen be astonyed.
10 Mgbe ahụ ekwuru m sị; “Ewoo, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị lee na ị ghọgbuola ndị a na Jerusalem site na ị sị, ‘Unu ga-enwe udo,’ mgbe mma agha dị anyị nʼolu.”
And Y seide, Alas! alas! alas! Lord God; therfor whether thou hast disseyued this puple and Jerusalem, seiynge, Pees schal be to you, and lo! a swerd is comun `til to the soule?
11 Nʼoge ahụ, a ga-agwa ndị a na Jerusalem, “Ifufe dị ọkụ, nke sitere nʼebe dị elu ihe na-adịghị si nʼọzara na-efebata irute ndị m. Ma ọ bụghị ifufe maka ịfụcha, maọbụ ime ka adị ọcha,
In that tyme it schal be seide to this puple and to Jerusalem, A brennynge wynd in the weies that ben in desert, ben the weies of the douytir of my puple, not to wyndewe, and not to purge.
12 ọ bụ ifufe nke dị oke ike karịa nke na-esite na mụ. Ugbu a, ana m ekwupụta okwu ikpe m megide ha.”
A spirit ful of hem schal come to me; and now Y, but Y schal speke my domes with hem.
13 Lee anya, ha na-abịa dịka igwe ojii. Ụgbọala agha ya na-abịa dịka oke ifufe, ịnyịnya ha niile na-agbasikwa ọsọ ike karịa ugo. Ahụhụ dịrị anyị, anyị abụrụla ndị e bibiri ebibi! Anyị abụrụla ndị na-aga ịla nʼiyi!
Lo! he schal stie as a cloude, and hise charis as a tempest; hise horsis ben swifter than eglis; wo to vs, for we ben distried.
14 Jerusalem, sachapụ mmehie dị gị nʼobi, ka a zọpụta gị. Ruo ole mgbe ka echiche mmehie ga-ejupụta gị obi?
Thou Jerusalem, waische thin herte fro malice, that thou be maad saaf. Hou long schulen noiful thouytis dwelle in thee?
15 Otu olu na-akpọsa site na Dan, ọ na-akpọsa ịla nʼiyi site nʼugwu niile nke Ifrem.
For whi the vois of a tellere fro Dan, and makynge knowun an idol fro the hil of Effraym.
16 “Gwa mba niile otu a, ha abịala, kpọsaa banyere Jerusalem: ‘Ndị agha ga-agba gị gburugburu na-abịa site nʼala dị anya, na-eti mkpu agha megide obodo niile nke Juda.
Reise, ye folkis; lo! it is herd in Jerusalem that keperis ben comun fro a fer lond, and yyuen her vois on the citees of Juda.
17 Ha ga-agbakwa Jerusalem gburugburu dịka ndị agha na-eche ubi a gbara ogige nche, nʼihi na ndị bi nʼime ya enupula isi megide m,’” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
As the keperis of feeldis thei ben maad on it in cumpas; for it stiride me to wrathfulnesse, seith the Lord.
18 “Ụzọ gị na omume gị niile buteere gị ihe ndị a. Nke a bụ ntaramahụhụ gị. Lee ka o si dị ilu! Lee ka o si emibanye nʼime obi.”
Thi weyes and thi thouytis han maad this to thee; this malice of thee, for it is bittir, for it touchide thin herte.
19 Ihe mgbu a dị ukwuu. Lee na apụghị m ịnagide ya. Obi m o, obi m o! Lee ka obi m si ada m gbim gbim gbim. Apụghịkwa m ịnọ jụụ. Ana m anụ ụda opi ike, na-anụkwa ụzụ agha.
Mi wombe akith, my wombe akith; the wittis of myn herte ben disturblid in me. Y schal not be stille, for my soule herde the vois of a trumpe, the cry of batel.
20 Mbibi na-arị mbibi ibe ya elu, lee na a laala ala a niile nʼiyi. Na mberede, e bibiela ụlọ ikwu anyị niile; a dọkasịkwala akwa mgbochi ha niile.
Sorewe is clepid on sorewe, and al the lond is distried; my tabernaclis ben wastid sudeynli, my skynnes ben wastid sudeynli.
21 Ruo ole mgbe ka m ga-anọgide na-ahụ ọkọlọtọ agha ndị a a na-alụ? Ruo ole mgbe kwa ka m ga-anọgide na-anụ ụda opi ike?
Hou longe schal Y se hem that fleen, schal Y here the vois of a clarioun?
22 “Ndị m bụ ndị nzuzu, ha amaghị m. Ha bụ ụmụntakịrị ndị na-enweghị uche, ha enweghị nghọta ọbụla. Ha bụ ọkachamara nʼihe gbasara ajọ omume, ma ha amaghị otu esi eme ezi ihe ọbụla.”
For my fonned puple knew not me; thei ben vnwise sones, and cowardis; thei ben wise to do yuels, but thei kouden not do wel.
23 Elere m anya nʼụwa hụ na ọ bụ ihe tọgbọrọ nʼefu, leekwa anya na mbara eluigwe, ma o nweghị ìhè dị ya.
Y bihelde the lond, and lo! it was void, and nouyt; and Y bihelde heuenes, and no liyt was in tho.
24 Elere m anya nʼugwu ukwu, hụ na ha na-ama jijiji, leekwa anya nʼugwu nta, hụ na ha na-aṅagharị aṅagharị.
Y siy munteyns, and lo! tho weren mouyd, and all litle hillis weren disturblid.
25 Elere m anya ma ahụghị mmadụ ọbụla, ụmụ nnụnụ niile dị na mbara eluigwe efefusịala.
Y lokide, and no man was, and ech brid of heuene was gon a wey.
26 Ala ọma ahụ aghọọla ọzara, obodo niile aghọọla mkputamkpu ebe nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihu oke iwe ya.
Y bihelde, and lo! Carmele is forsakun, and alle citees therof ben distried fro the face of the Lord, and fro the face of the ire of his strong veniaunce.
27 Ihe a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “A ga-ebibi ala ahụ niile, ma agaghị m ebibicha ya kpamkpam.
For the Lord seith these thingis, Al the lond schal be forsakun, but netheles Y schal not make an endyng.
28 Ụwa ga-eru ụjụ, mbara eluigwe ga-agbakwa ọchịchịrị. Nʼihi na ekwuola ya, agaghị m agbanwe obi m. Ekpebiela m ya, agaghị m alakwa azụ nʼihe m zubere ime.”
The erthe schal mourne, and heuenys aboue schulen make sorewe, for that Y spak; Y thouyte, and it repentide not me, nether Y am turned awei fro it.
29 Ndị mmadụ niile ga-agbapụ ọsọ site nʼobodo ha mgbe ha nụrụ ụzụ ndị agha na-agba ụta nọ nʼelu ịnyịnya na-abịa nso nso. Ha ga-ezo onwe ha nʼọhịa; ndị ọzọkwa ga-agbalaga zoo onwe ha nʼugwu ukwu. Obodo ha niile ga-atọgbọrọkwa nʼefu, mgbe ndị mmadụ si nʼime ya gbapụ ọsọ nʼihi oke ihe egwu.
Ech citee fledde fro the vois of a knyyt, and of a man schetynge an arowe; thei entriden in to hard places, and stieden in to roochis of stoon; alle citees ben forsakun, and no man dwellith in tho.
30 Gịnị bụ nke a, gị onye na-enweghị olileanya? Gịnị mere unu ji yiri uwe uhie, were ọlaolu ọlaedo dị oke ọnụ yiri nʼolu? Gịnị mere unu ji were ihe ịchọ mma tee nʼanya unu? Nʼefu ka unu na-eme onwe unu ka unu dị mma. Ndị iko unu na-elelị unu; ndụ unu ka ha na-achọkwa.
But what schalt thou `destried do? Whanne thou schalt clothe thee with reed scarlet, whanne thou schalt be ourned with a goldun broche, and schalt anoynte thin iyen with wommans oynement, thou schalt be araied in veyn; thi louyeris han dispisid thee, thei schulen seke thi soule.
31 Ana m anụ olu iti mkpu akwa nke yiri olu akwa nwanyị ime na-eme, ọ dị ka ude nwanyị na-agbalị ịmụpụta nwa mbụ ya. Ma olu akwa m nụrụ bụ nke ada Zayọn, ebe ọ nọ na-eku ume ike ike. Ọ dara nʼala gbasapụ aka ya, ma na-akwa akwa na-asị, “Onye nwụrụ anwụ ka m bụ! Lee, ndụ m ka e nyere ndị ogbu mmadụ.”
For Y herd a vois as of a womman trauelynge of child, the angwischis as of a womman childynge; the vois of the douyter of Sion among hem that dien, and spreden abrood her hondis; Wo to me, for my soule failide for hem that ben slayn.
