7 Bí ó bá jẹ́ ìgbà kan, tí èmi kéde kí orílẹ̀-èdè tàbí ìjọba kan di fífà tu láti dojúdé àti láti parun,

For they have forgotten me people my to falsehood they make smoke and they have caused to stumble them in ways their paths of antiquity to walk paths a way not built up.
16 Ilẹ̀ wọn yóò wà lásán yóò sì di nǹkan ẹ̀gàn títí láé, gbogbo àwọn tí ó ń kọjá yóò bẹ̀rù, wọn yóò sì mi orí wọn.
To make land their into a waste (whistling of *Q(K)*) perpetuity every [one who] passes by at it he will be appalled and he may wag with head his.

18 Wọ́n sọ wí pé, “Wá, jẹ́ kí a lọ ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Jeremiah, nítorí òfin ìkọ́ni láti ẹnu àwọn àlùfáà kì yóò jásí asán, tàbí ìmọ̀ràn fún àwọn ọlọ́gbọ́n tàbí ọ̀rọ̀ láti ẹnu àwọn wòlíì. Nítorí náà wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a kọlù ú pẹ̀lú ahọ́n wa, kí a má sì ṣe tẹ́tí sí ohunkóhun tí ó bá sọ.”
