Jeremaya 48
1 Nke a dịrị Moab: Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, bụ Chineke Izrel kwuru, “Ahụhụ dịrị Nebo! Nʼihi na a ga-emebi ya. A ga-emekwa ka ihere mee Kiriatem, e, a ga-adọta ya nʼagha. A ga-etipịa Misgab, mee ka ihere mee ya.
Of Moab. Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo! For it is laid waste. Kiriathaim is disappointed. It is taken. Misgab is put to shame and broken down.
2 Ọ dịkwaghị ndị ga-eto Moab ọzọ, kama a ga-anọ na Heshbọn pịa ọpịpịa ọdịda ya. Ha ga-asị, ‘Bịanụ ka anyị bibie mba a, ka ọ ghara ịdịkwa.’ Ọ bụladị gị bụ Madmen, ka a ga-eme ka i dere duu. A ga-ejikwa mma agha chụọ gị ọsọ.
The praise of Moab is no more. In Heshbon they have devised evil against her: ‘Come! Let’s cut her off from being a nation.’ You also, Madmen, will be brought to silence. The sword will pursue you.
3 Gee ntị nụrụ akwa na-ada na Horonaim, ọ bụ mkpu akwa oke mbibi na ịla nʼiyi.
The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!
4 A ga-etikpọ Moab, ụmụntakịrị ya ga-etikwa mkpu akwa.
Moab is destroyed. Her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5 Ha ga-eji oke ịkwa akwa na-agbago ụzọ Luhit; a ga-anụkwa mkpu akwa nke ndị e bibiri ihe ha nʼụzọ na-agbada Horonaim. A ga-anụ akwa mwute nʼihi mbibi nke bịakwasịrị ha.
For they will go up by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping. For at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
6 Gbalaganụ! Gbapụnụ ọsọ ndụ! Dịkwanụ ka osisi nta nke dị nʼọzara.
Flee! Save your lives! Be like the juniper bush in the wilderness.
7 Ebe ọ bụ na unu na-atụkwasị obi nʼaka ọrụ unu, na nʼakụnụba unu, a ga-adọtakwa unu nʼagha. Ndị Kemosh ka a ga-eburu gaa mba ọzọ, ha na ndị nchụaja na ndịisi ọchịchị ya.
For, because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you also will be taken. Chemosh will go out into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
8 Onye mbibi ahụ ga-abịa megide obodo niile. O nwekwaghị obodo nke pụrụ ịgbanarị mbibi ya. A ga-ala ndagwurugwu niile nʼiyi, bibiekwa ebe dị elu nke dị larịị, nʼihi na ọ bụ okwu si nʼọnụ Onyenwe anyị pụta.
The destroyer will come on every city, and no city will escape; the valley also will perish, and the plain will be destroyed, as Yahweh has spoken.
9 Wụkwasị ala Moab nnu, nʼihi na a ga-eme ka ọ ghọọ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Obodo niile dị nʼime ya ga-aghọ mkpọmkpọ ebe, nke mmadụ ọbụla na-agaghị ebikwa nʼime ya.
Give wings to Moab, that she may fly and get herself away: and her cities will become a desolation, without anyone to dwell in them.
10 “Ọbụbụ ọnụ dịrị onye ahụ ji aghụghọ na-arụ ọrụ Onyenwe anyị. Ahụhụ dịrị onye na-ewezuga mma agha nʼebe iwusi ọbara dị.
“Cursed is he who does the work of Yahweh negligently; and cursed is he who keeps back his sword from blood.
11 “Onye na-anọ juu ka Moab bụ site na mgbe ọ bụ nwantakịrị, ọ dịka mmanya doro edo, nke a na-adịghị esi nʼotu udu wụgharịa ya nʼime udu ọzọ, o nwebeghị oge ọbụla e ji mee ka ọ ga biri nʼala ọzọ. Ọ bụ ya mere ụtọ ya adịghị agbanwe agbanwe, isisi ya agbanwekwaghị.
“Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his dregs, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity; therefore his taste remains in him, and his scent is not changed.
12 Ma ụbọchị ndị ahụ na-abịa,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, “mgbe m ga-eziga ndị ikom ọrụ ha bụ ịwụpụ ihe site nʼite, ha ga-awụpụkwa ya. Ha ga-agbapụ ihe niile dị nʼite ya niile, tụwakwaa ite ya niile.
Therefore behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will send to him those who pour off, and they will pour him off; and they will empty his vessels, and break their containers in pieces.
13 Mgbe ahụ, ihere Kemosh ga-eme Moab, dịka ihere si mee Izrel mgbe ha tụkwasịrị Betel obi ha.
Moab will be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, their confidence.
14 “Unu si aṅaa ekwu sị, ‘Ndị dị ike nʼagha ka anyị bụ; anyị bụkwa dimkpa nʼagha’?
“How do you say, ‘We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war’?
15 A ga-ebibi ala Moab, busokwa obodo ya niile agha. Ụmụ okorobịa ya niile ndị ahọrọ ahọ ga-ada nʼogbugbu ahụ.” Otu a ka Eze ahụ kwubiri, onye aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
Moab is laid waste, and they have gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men have gone down to the slaughter,” says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies.
16 “Ọdịda Moab dị nso; oke nhụju anya ya ga-abịakwa ọsịịsọ.
“The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hurries fast.
17 Kasịenụ ya obi, unu ndị niile gbara ya gburugburu, unu ndị niile maara na ọ bụ mba dị ukwuu. Kwupụtanụ sị, ‘Esi aṅa gbajie mkpanaka eze a, nke dị ike, lee ka e si gbajiekwa mkpanaka a nke dị ebube!’
All you who are around him, bemoan him; and all you who know his name, say, ‘How the strong staff is broken, the beautiful rod!’
18 “Sitenụ nʼebe nsọpụrụ unu dị elu rịdata, bịa nọdụnụ nʼala kpọrọ nkụ, unu ndị bi nʼobodo bụ Ada Dibọn. Nʼihi na onye ahụ bibiri Moab ga-abịa ibu agha megide unu, ọ ga-alakwa obodo unu niile e wusiri ike nʼiyi.
“You daughter who dwells in Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab has come up against you. He has destroyed your strongholds.
19 Guzonụ nʼakụkụ ụzọ, hụrụ ihe na-eme, unu ndị bi nʼime Aroea. Jụọnụ nwoke unu hụrụ na-agba ọsọ, na nwanyị nke na-ewezuga onwe ya ajụjụ sị ha, ‘Gịnị mere?’
Inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way and watch. Ask him who flees, and her who escapes; say, ‘What has been done?’
20 E meela ka ihere mee Moab, nʼihi na a tụpịala ya. Kwasienụ akwa ike, tiekwanụ mkpu akwa. Kwupụta ya nʼAnọn na e bibiela Moab.
Moab is disappointed; for it is broken down. Wail and cry! Tell it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
21 Oge a ga-ekpe ndị bi nʼala dị larịị ikpe abịala, bụ ndị bi na Họlọn, Jahaz na Mefaat,
Judgment has come on the plain country— on Holon, on Jahzah, on Mephaath,
22 Dibọn, Nebo na Bet-Diblataim,
on Dibon, on Nebo, on Beth Diblathaim,
23 Kiriatem, Bet-Gamul na Bet-Meon,
on Kiriathaim, on Beth Gamul, on Beth Meon,
24 Keriọt na Bozra, na obodo niile dị nʼala Moab, ndị dị nso, na ndị nke dị anya.
on Kerioth, on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25 E bipụla mpi Moab, a gbajiekwala ogwe aka ya,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken,” says Yahweh.
26 “Meenụ ya ka ọ ṅụbiga mmanya oke, nʼihi na o nupuru isi megide Onyenwe anyị. Moab ga-atụrụ onwe ya nʼihe ọ gbọrọ. Ọ ga-aghọkwa ihe ọchị.
“Make him drunk, for he magnified himself against Yahweh. Moab will wallow in his vomit, and he also will be in derision.
27 Izrel ọ bụghị ihe ọchị nye gị? Ọ bụ nʼetiti ndị na-ezu ohi ka e jidere ya, mere i ji na-efufere ya isi mgbe ọbụla ị na-ekwu okwu banyere ya?
For wasn’t Israel a derision to you? Was he found among thieves? For as often as you speak of him, you shake your head.
28 Sitenụ nʼobodo unu niile gbapụ ọsọ; jeenụ biri nʼetiti nkume, unu ndị bi nʼala Moab. Dịrịnụ ka nduru nke na-ewu akwụ ya nʼakụkụ ọnụ ọgba nkume.
You inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock. Be like the dove that makes her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
29 “Anyị anụla ihe banyere mpako Moab. Anyị anụla na mpako ahụ dị ukwuu, nụkwa ihe banyere oke mbuli elu nke ọ na-ebuli onwe ya, na oke nganga nke obi ya.
“We have heard of the pride of Moab. He is very proud in his loftiness, his pride, his arrogance, and the arrogance of his heart.
30 Amaara m ihe banyere mmụọ nke akpọghị onye ọzọ ihe ọbụla, nke dị nʼime ya, ma ọ gaghị abara ya uru ọbụla. Ịnya isi ya agaghị arụpụtakwa ihe ọbụla, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
I know his wrath,” says Yahweh, “that it is nothing; his boastings have done nothing.
31 Nʼihi ya, aga m akwasị akwa ike nʼihi Moab, aga m eti mkpu akwa nʼihi ala Moab niile. Aga m asụ ude akwa nʼihi ndị Kia Hareset.
Therefore I will wail for Moab. Yes, I will cry out for all Moab. They will mourn for the men of Kir Heres.
32 Akwa nke karịrị akwa Jeza ka m ga-akwa nʼihi gị, gị osisi vaịnị dị na Sibma. Alaka gị gbasara ruo nʼakụkụ osimiri, e, ha gbasara ruo nʼosimiri Jeza. Ma onye mbibi abịakwasịla mkpụrụ gị niile chara acha, e, ọ bịakwasịla mkpụrụ vaịnị gị niile.
With more than the weeping of Jazer I will weep for you, vine of Sibmah. Your branches passed over the sea. They reached even to the sea of Jazer. The destroyer has fallen on your summer fruits and on your vintage.
33 Ọṅụ na obi ụtọ ka e wepụrụ site nʼubi vaịnị niile, na nʼala ubi niile nke Moab. E meela ka mmanya vaịnị kwụsị ịgbapụtakwa site nʼebe ịzọcha mmanya. Ọ dịkwaghị onye na-eji mkpu ọṅụ na-azọcha ha, Ọ bụ ezie na a na-anụ olu iti mkpu, ma ọ bụghị olu iti mkpu ọṅụ.
Gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab. I have caused wine to cease from the wine presses. No one will tread with shouting. The shouting will be no shouting.
34 “A na-anụ ụda iti mkpu akwa ha site nʼobodo Heshbọn ruo Eleale, na Jehaz. A na-anụkwa ya site na Zoa ruo, ọ bụladị obodo ndị dị anya, dịka Horonaim, na Eglat Shelishiya. Nʼihi na mmiri niile nke Nimrim ataala.
From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, even to Jahaz they have uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, to Eglath Shelishiyah; for the waters of Nimrim will also become desolate.
35 Aga m eme ka ndị ahụ niile na-achụ aja nʼebe niile dị elu, na ndị ahụ niile na-achụrụ chi ha dị iche iche aja ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ, hapụ ịdịkwa nʼala Moab,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab,” says Yahweh, “him who offers in the high place, and him who burns incense to his gods.
36 “Ụda akwa nke na-ada nʼime obi m nʼihi Moab dịka ụda ọja. Ụda akwa nke dịkwa ka ụda ọja na-adakwa nʼime obi m nʼihi ndị Kia Hareset. Akụ niile ha kpakọtara alaala nʼiyi.
Therefore my heart sounds for Moab like flutes, and my heart sounds like flutes for the men of Kir Heres. Therefore the abundance that he has gotten has perished.
37 A kpụchapụla agịrị isi niile, kpachakwa afụọnụ ha niile. E bipụkwala aka ha niile. Ọ bụkwa akwa mkpe ka e ji kpuchie ukwu niile.
For every head is bald, and every beard clipped. There are cuttings on all the hands, and sackcloth on the waist.
38 Nʼelu ụlọ niile nke dị na Moab, nakwa nʼama egwuregwu niile, ọ dịghị ihe ọzọ karịa naanị iru ụjụ ka a na-ahụ. Nʼihi na e tiwaala m Moab dịka e si etiwa ite aja nke ọ dịghị onye bụla chọrọ ya,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
On all the housetops of Moab, and in its streets, there is lamentation everywhere; for I have broken Moab like a vessel in which no one delights,” says Yahweh.
39 “Lee ka e si tipịa ya! Lee ka ha si akwasị akwa ike! Leekwa ka Moab si gbakụta azụ ya nʼihi ọnọdụ ihere ya! Moab aghọọla ihe ọchị, ọ ghọọla ihe iju anya nye ndị niile gbara ya gburugburu.”
“How it is broken down! How they wail! How Moab has turned the back with shame! So will Moab become a derision and a terror to all who are around him.”
40 Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Lee, ọ dị otu ugo na-efedata, nke gbasapụrụ nku ya kpuchie ala Moab niile.
For Yahweh says: “Behold, he will fly as an eagle, and will spread out his wings against Moab.
41 A ga-adọta Keriọt nʼagha, meriekwa ebe ya niile e wusiri ike. Nʼụbọchị ahụ, obi ndị bụ dike nʼagha nʼala Moab ga-adị ka obi nwanyị ime na-eme.
Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized. The heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42 A ga-ebibi obodo Moab, mee ya ka ọ ghara ịdịkwa, nʼihi na ọ kagidere Onyenwe anyị anya.
Moab will be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against Yahweh.
43 Oke egwu na olulu, na igbudu nke onye na-esi ọnya nọ na-eche unu, unu ndị Moab,” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
Terror, the pit, and the snare are on you, inhabitant of Moab,” says Yahweh.
44 “Nʼoge ahụ, onye ọbụla gbapụrụ ọsọ site nʼihe oke egwu ga-adaba nʼolulu. Onye ọbụla ga-esikwa nʼolulu rịpụta ka igbudu ga-ejide. Nʼihi na aga m eme ka afọ ahụ a kara aka maka ịta Moab ahụhụ bịakwasị ya,” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
“He who flees from the terror will fall into the pit; and he who gets up out of the pit will be taken in the snare, for I will bring on him, even on Moab, the year of their visitation,” says Yahweh.
45 “Nʼokpuru ndo Heshbọn ka ndị ahụ gbapụrụ ọsọ ndụ guzoro, na-enweghị onye inyeaka. Nʼihi na ọkụ esitela na Heshbọn rere na-aga; ire ọkụ dị ukwuu esitela nʼetiti Saịhọn na-apụ, na-erepịa egedege ihu ndị Moab, na okpokoro isi ndị ahụ ji oke ụzụ na-anya isi.
“Those who fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire has gone out of Heshbon, and a flame from the middle of Sihon, and has devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46 Ahụhụ dịrị gị, gị Moab! Ebibiela ndị Kemosh niile. A dọtakwala ụmụ gị ndị ikom na ụmụ gị ndị inyom nʼagha, buru ha gaa mba ọzọ.
Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh are undone; for your sons are taken away captive, and your daughters into captivity.
47 “Ma emesịa, nʼụbọchị ndị ahụ na-abịa, aga m eme ka ndị Moab a dọtara nʼagha lọghachi.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya. Nke a bụ ọgwụgwụ ikpe ọmụma dịrị Moab.
“Yet I will reverse the captivity of Moab in the latter days,” says Yahweh. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
