Jeremaya 8
1 “‘Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, nʼoge ahụ a ga-esi nʼili ha wezuga ọkpụkpụ ndị eze, na ọkpụkpụ ndịisi ọchịchị Juda, na ọkpụkpụ ndị nchụaja na ndị amụma, na ọkpụkpụ ndị niile bi na Jerusalem.
At that time, sayeth the Lord, they shall bring out the bones of the Kings of Iudah, and the bones of their princes, and the bones of the Priests and the bones of the Prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Ierusalem out of their graues.
2 A ga-agbasapụ ha nye anyanwụ, na ọnwa, na kpakpando niile nke mbara eluigwe, bụ ihe ndị ahụ niile ha hụrụ nʼanya na ihe ha na-akpọ isiala nye. Bụkwa ihe ndị ahụ ha na-agbaso, nke ha na-ajụta ase site nʼaka ha, na-efekwa. A gaghị ekpokọta ọkpụkpụ ndị a niile, maọbụ lie ha nʼala. Kama ha ga-aghasara nʼala dịka unyi.
And they shall spread them before the sunne and the moone, and all the host of heauen, whom they haue loued, and whome they haue serued, and whome they haue followed, and whome they haue sought, and whome they haue worshipped: they shall not be gathered nor be buried, but shall be as doung vpon the earth.
3 Nʼebe niile nke m chụsara ha, bụ ndị fọdụrụ ndụ site na mba ọjọọ a, ha ga-ahọrọ ọnwụ karịa ịdị ndụ. Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri.’
And death shall bee desired rather then life of all the residue that remaineth of this wicked familie, which remaine in all the places where I haue scattered them, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
4 “Ị ga-asịkwa ha, ‘Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: “‘Mgbe mmadụ dara ada, ọ dịghị ebili ọtọ? Mgbe mmadụ daghachiri azụ, ha ọ dịghị alaghachi azụ?
Thou shalt say vnto them also, Thus sayeth the Lord, Shall they fall and not arise? shall he turne away and not turne againe?
5 Gịnịkwa mere ndị a ji tụgharịa site nʼịgbaso ụzọ ọjọọ ha? Gịnị mere Jerusalem ji nọgide na-agbaso ụzọ ọjọọ? Lee, ha na-ejidesi aghụghọ aka ike; ha jụrụ ịtụgharị.
Wherefore is this people of Ierusalem turned backe by a perpetuall rebellion? they gaue themselues to deceit, and would not returne.
6 Aṅaala m ntị, ma anụbeghị m ka ihe ọma ọbụla si ha nʼọnụ na-apụta. O nweghị onye nʼime ha chegharịrị tie aka nʼobi sị, “Gịnị bụ ihe a m mere?” Kama onye ọbụla na-agbaso ụzọ nke aka ya, dịka ịnyịnya nke na-agbaba nʼọgbọ agha.
I hearkened and heard, but none spake aright: no man repented him of his wickednesse, saying, What haue I done? euery one turned to their race, as the horse rusheth into the battell.
7 Ọ bụladị ụgbala na-efegharị na mbara eluigwe maara oge ya a kara aka. Nduru, na eleke, na okwolo makwaara mgbe ha kwesiri isite nʼotu ebe obibi ha gafee nʼebe obibi ọzọ. Ma ndị m amaghị ihe Onyenwe anyị chọrọ site nʼaka ha.
Euen the storke in the aire knoweth her appointed times, and the turtle and the crane and the swallowe obserue the time of their comming, but my people knoweth not the iudgement of the Lord.
8 “‘Unu si aṅaa kwuo, “Ndị maara ihe ka anyị bụ, nʼihi na iwu Onyenwe anyị dị nʼaka anyị,” ebe ọ bụ na mkpisi akwụkwọ aghụghọ ndị ode akwụkwọ unu adịghị akọwa iwu ya otu o kwesiri?
Howe doe yee say, Wee are wise, and the Lawe of the Lord is with vs? Loe, certeinly in vaine made hee it, the penne of the scribes is in vaine.
9 A ga-eme ka ihere mee ndị maara ihe; a ga-eme ka ụjọ jupụta ha obi, meekwa ka ha maa nʼọnya. Ebe ọ bụ na ha ajụla okwu Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ ụdị amamihe dị aṅaa ka ha nwere?
The wise men are ashamed: they are afraid and taken. loe, they haue reiected the word of the Lord, and what wisdome is in them?
10 Ya mere, aga m akpọnye ndị ikom ọzọ nwunye ha, werekwa ubi ha nyefee nʼaka ndị ọrụ ubi ọzọ. Nʼihi na site nʼonye ukwu ruo nʼonye dịkarịsịrị nta, ọ bụ naanị akpịrị uru na-ezighị ezi ka e ji mara ha. Ọ bụladị ndị amụma na ndị nchụaja na-etinyekwa aka nʼọrụ aghụghọ.
Therefore will I giue their wiues vnto others, and their fieldes to them that shall possesse them: for euery one from the least euen vnto the greatest is giuen to couetousnesse, and from the Prophet euen vnto the Priest, euery one dealeth falsely.
11 Ha na-ekechi ọnya ndị m dịka a ga-asị na ọ dịghị ihe ọ bụ. Ha na-asị, “Udo dị, udo dị,” mgbe udo na-adịghị.
For they haue healed the hurt of the daughter of my people with sweete woordes, saying, Peace, peace, when there is no peace.
12 Ihere o mere ha nʼihi omume arụ ha niile? Mba! Ihere adịghị eme ha ma ọlị; nʼezie, ha amakwaghị ihe a na-akpọ inwe ihere. Nʼihi ya, ha ga-ada nʼetiti ndị dara ada; ha ga-asọ ngọngọ mgbe e nyere ha ntaramahụhụ. Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not ashamed, neither coulde they haue any shame: therefore shall they fall among the slaine: when I shall visite them, they shall be cast downe, sayeth the Lord.
13 “‘Aga m anapụ ha ihe owuwe ubi niile ha nwetara, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara. Ha agaghị enwekwa mkpụrụ vaịnị, maọbụ mkpụrụ osisi fiig nʼelu osisi fiig ha. Akwụkwọ osisi ndị a niile ga-akpọnwụ. A ga-anapụkwa ha ihe niile m nyere ha.’”
I wil surely consume them, sayth the Lord: there shalbe no grapes on the vine, nor figges on the figtree, and the leafe shall fade, and the things that I haue giuen them, shall depart from them.
14 Gịnị ka unu na-eme nʼebe a unu nọdụrụ ala? Kwakọtaanụ ihe unu niile. Ngwa, ka anyị gbapụnụ ọsọ gaa nʼobodo ndị ahụ niile e wusiri ike nọdụ nʼebe ahụ nwụọ! Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị amaala anyị ikpe ọnwụ. O nyela anyị mmiri e tinyere nsi ka anyị ṅụọ, nʼihi na anyị emehiela megide ya.
Why doe we stay? assemble your selues, and let vs enter into the strong cities, and let vs be quiet there: for the Lord our God hath put vs to silence and giuen vs water with gall to drinke, because we haue sinned against the Lord.
15 Anyị lere anya udo, ma o nweghị ihe ọma ọbụla anyị hụrụ. Anyị lere anya ọgwụgwọ ọrịa anyị, maọbụ naanị ihe egwu ka anyị hụrụ.
We looked for peace, but no good came, and for a time of health, and behold troubles.
16 E sitere na Dan nụ ụda ịma imi ịnyịnya ndị iro. Ala a niile mara jijiji mgbe ha nụrụ akwa nke ịnyịnya ndị ahụ dị ike. Ha na-abịa ịla ala a na ihe niile dị nʼime ya nʼiyi. Ọ bụkwa otu ihe ahụ ka ha na-abịa ime obodo a na ndị bi nʼime ya.
The neying of his horses was heard from Dan, the whole lande trembled at the noyse of the neying of his strong horses: for they are come, and haue deuoured the land with all that is in it, the citie, and those that dwell therein.
17 “Lee, ana m ezibata agwọ ọjọọ, ndị na-atagbu atagbu, nʼetiti unu. Ajụala nke ọ dịkwaghị ụra ga-arata ha. Ana m ezibata ha ka ha taa unu.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
For beholde, I will sende serpents, and cockatrices among you, which will not be charmed, and they shall sting you, sayth the Lord.
18 Ọ ga-adị mma ma ọ bụrụ na m hụrụ onye ga-akasị m obi nʼime ọnọdụ iru ụjụ m, nʼihi na obi m na-ada mba nʼime m.
I would haue comforted my selfe against sorowe, but mine heart is heauie in me.
19 Gee ntị nụrụ akwa ndị m ka ọ na-ada site nʼebe dị anya. “Onyenwe anyị, ọ sitela na Zayọn pụọ? Ọ pụtara na Eze ha anọkwaghị nʼebe ahụ?” “Gịnị mere ha ji site nʼoyiyi a tụrụ atụ, na arụsị ndị mba ọzọ ha na-efe kpasuo m iwe?”
Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people for feare of them of a farre countrey, Is not the Lord in Zion? is not her king in her? Why haue they prouoked mee to anger with their grauen images, and with the vanities of a strange god?
20 “Oge owuwe ihe ubi agafeela, leekwa na ọkọchị agabigakwala, ma a zọpụtabeghị anyị.”
The haruest is past, the sommer is ended, and we are not holpen.
21 Ebe ọ bụ na a zọpịara ndị m, ọ bụkwa m ka azọpịara. Anam eru ụjụ, oke egwu jisikwara m aka ike.
I am sore vexed for the hurt of ye daughter of my people: I am heauie, and astonishment hath taken me.
22 Ọ pụtara na o nweghị mmanụ otite na-eme ka ọnya laa dị na Gilead? Ọ bụ na e nwekwaghị dibịa nọ nʼebe ahụ? Gịnị mere o nweghị ọgwụgwọ dịrị ndị m nʼihi mmerụ ahụ ha niile?
Is there no balme at Gilead? is there no Physition there? Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recouered.
