< Jeremiah 25 >
1 Ọ̀rọ̀ sì tọ Jeremiah wá nípa àwọn ènìyàn Juda ní ọdún kẹrin Jehoiakimu ọmọ Josiah ọba Juda, èyí tí ó jẹ́ ọdún kìn-ín-ní Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli.
The word that came to Jeremiah about all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah. The same is the first year of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon.
2 Nítorí náà, Jeremiah wòlíì sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Juda àti sí àwọn olùgbé Jerusalẹmu.
And the prophet Jeremiah spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying:
3 Fún odidi ọdún mẹ́tàlélógún, bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ọdún kẹtàlá Josiah, ọmọ Amoni ọba Juda, títí di ọjọ́ yìí, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ̀ mí wá, mo sì ti sọ ọ́ fún un yín láti ìgbà dé ìgbà, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò fetísílẹ̀.
“From the thirteenth year of Josiah, the son of Amon, the king of Judah, even until this day, which is the twenty-third year, the word of the Lord has been given to me, and I have spoken to you, rising while it was still night, and speaking, and yet you have not listened.
4 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé Olúwa ti rán gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn wòlíì sí i yín láti ìgbà dé ìgbà, ẹ̀yin kò fetísílẹ̀.
And the Lord has sent to you all his servants, the prophets, rising at first light, and sending, and yet you have not listened, and you have not inclined your ears, so that you would hear,
5 Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ẹ yípadà olúkúlùkù yín kúrò ní inú ibi rẹ̀ àti ní ọ̀nà ibi rẹ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò sì lè dúró ní ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa fún un yín àti àwọn baba yín títí láéláé.
when he said: Return, each one from his evil way, and from your wicked thoughts. And you shall dwell in the land, which the Lord has given to you and to your fathers, from ancient times and even forever.
6 Má ṣe tọ àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn lẹ́yìn láti sìn wọ́n tàbí bọ wọ́n; ẹ má ṣe mú inú bí mi pẹ̀lú ohun tí ẹ ti fi ọwọ́ yín ṣe. Nígbà náà ni Èmi kò ní ṣe yín ní ibi.”
And do not choose to go after strange gods, so that you would serve them and adore them. And do not provoke me to wrath by the works of your hands. And then I will not afflict you.
7 “Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí; “bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ sì ti mú inú bí mi pẹ̀lú ohun tí ẹ fi ọwọ́ yín ṣe, ẹ sì ti mú ibi wá sórí ara yín.”
And yet you have not listened to me, says the Lord, and so you have provoked me to anger with the works of your hands, to your own harm.”
8 Nítorí náà, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ èyí: “Nítorí wí pé ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi,
Because of this, thus says the Lord of hosts: “Since you have not listened to my words,
9 Èmi yóò pe gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn àríwá, àti ìránṣẹ́ mi Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli,” ni Olúwa wí. “Èmi yóò sì mú wọn dìde lòdì sí ilẹ̀ náà àti àwọn olùgbé rẹ̀ àti sí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè àyíká rẹ̀. Èmi yóò pa wọ́n run pátápátá, Èmi yóò sọ wọ́n di nǹkan ẹ̀rù àti yẹ̀yẹ́ àti ìparun ayérayé.
behold, I will send for and take all the associates of the north, says the Lord, and Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and I will lead them over this land, and over its inhabitants, and over all the nations that are around it. And I will destroy them, and I will set them in the midst of stupor and hissing, and continual desolations.
10 Èmi yóò sì mú ìró ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn; ohùn ìyàwó àti ọkọ ìyàwó, ìró ọlọ òkúta àti ìmọ́lẹ̀ fìtílà.
And I will perish from them the voice of gladness and the voice of rejoicing, the voice of the groom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstone and the light of the lamp.
11 Gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yìí yóò sì di ahoro, orílẹ̀-èdè yìí yóò sì sìn ọba Babeli ní àádọ́rin ọdún.
And this entire land will be in desolation and in stupor. And all these nations will serve the king of Babylon, for seventy years.
12 “Ṣùgbọ́n, nígbà tí àádọ́rin ọdún náà bá pé, Èmi yóò fi ìyà jẹ ọba Babeli àti orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ, ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Babeli nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn,” ni Olúwa wí; “bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Èmi yóò sọ ọ́ di ahoro títí láé.
And when the seventy years have been completed, I will visit their iniquity upon the king of Babylon, and upon that nation, and upon the land of the Chaldeans, says the Lord. And I will set it in continual desolations.
13 Èmi yóò sì mú gbogbo ohun tí mo ti sọ wọ̀nyí wá sórí ilẹ̀ náà, gbogbo ohun tí a ti sọ àní gbogbo èyí tí a ti kọ sínú ìwé yìí, èyí tí Jeremiah ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè.
And I will lead over that land all my words, which I have spoken against it, all that has been written in this book, everything whatsoever that Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
14 Àwọn fúnra wọn yóò sì sin orílẹ̀-èdè púpọ̀ àti àwọn ọba ńlá. Èmi yóò sì sán fún oníkálùkù gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìṣe àti iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ wọn.”
For they have served them, though these were populous nations and great kings. And I will repay them according to their works and according to the deeds of their hands.”
15 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí fún mi: “Gba ago yìí ní ọwọ́ mí tí ó kún fún ọtí wáìnì ìbínú mi, kí o sì mú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ti mo rán ọ sí mu ún.
For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Take the chalice of the wine of this fury from my hand. And you shall cause all the nations, to which I will send you, to drink from it.
16 Nígbà tí wọ́n bá mu ún, wọn yóò ta gbọ̀nọ́ngbọ̀nọ́n: bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí wọ́n di aṣiwèrè nítorí idà tí yóò ránṣẹ́ sí àárín wọn.”
And they will drink, and be stirred up, and become maddened, before the face of the sword that I will send among them.”
17 Mo sì gba ago náà lọ́wọ́ Olúwa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni mo sì mú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó rán mi sí mu ún.
And I received the chalice from the hand of the Lord, and I caused all the nations, to which the Lord has sent me, to drink from it:
18 Jerusalẹmu àti àwọn ìlú Juda, àwọn ọba wọn pẹ̀lú àwọn aláṣẹ wọn, láti sọ wọ́n di ohun ìparun, ohun ẹ̀rù, ẹ̀sìn àti ègún, gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti rí lónìí yìí.
Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and its kings, and its leaders, so that I gave them over to desolation, and stupor, and hissing, and a curse, just as it is this day.
19 Farao ọba Ejibiti, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn aláṣẹ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
“But as for Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and his servants, and his leaders, and all his people,
20 Àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn àjèjì tí ó wà níbẹ̀; gbogbo àwọn ọba Usi, gbogbo àwọn ọba Filistini, gbogbo àwọn ti Aṣkeloni, Gasa, Ekroni àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó kù sí Aṣdodu.
and the entire populace in general: all the kings of the land of the south, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gaza, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod,
21 Edomu, Moabu àti Ammoni;
and Idumea, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon,
22 gbogbo àwọn ọba Tire àti Sidoni; gbogbo àwọn ọba erékùṣù wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ń bẹ ní ìkọjá Òkun.
and all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the land of the islands that are across the sea,
23 Dedani, Tema, Busi àti gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé lọ́nà jíjìn réré.
and Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all those who have shaved off their hair,
24 Gbogbo àwọn ọba Arabia àti àwọn ọba àwọn àjèjì ènìyàn tí ń gbé inú aginjù.
and all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the west, who live in the desert,
25 Gbogbo àwọn ọba Simri, Elamu àti Media.
and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of Media,
26 Àti gbogbo àwọn ọba àríwá ní tòsí àti lọ́nà jíjìn, ẹnìkínní lẹ́yìn ẹnìkejì; gbogbo àwọn ìjọba lórí orílẹ̀ ayé. Àti gbogbo wọn, ọba Ṣeṣaki náà yóò sì mu.
and likewise, all the kings of the north from near to far, each one facing his brother, and all the kingdoms upon the face of the earth, and the king of Sesac: all these shall drink after them.
27 “Nígbà náà, sọ fún wọn, èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára Israẹli wí. Mu, kí o sì mú àmuyó kí o sì bì, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí o sì ṣubú láì dìde mọ́ nítorí idà tí n ó rán sí àárín yín.
And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink, and be inebriated, and vomit, and fall down. And you shall not rise up before the face of the sword that I will send among you.
28 Ṣùgbọ́n bí wọ́n ba kọ̀ láti gba ago náà ní ọwọ́ rẹ kí wọ́n sì mu ún, sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ: Ẹyin gbọdọ̀ mu ún!
And if they refuse to receive the cup from your hand and to drink, you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord of hosts: Certainly, you shall drink!
29 Wò ó, èmi ń mú ibi bọ̀ sí orí orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó ń jẹ́ orúkọ mi; ǹjẹ́ yóò ha a lè lọ láìjìyà? Ẹ̀yin ń pe idà sọ̀kalẹ̀ sórí gbogbo àwọn olùgbé ayé, ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ.’
For behold, I am beginning to afflict the city in which my name has been invoked, and will you be innocent and immune? You will not be immune! For I will call the sword over all the inhabitants of the earth, says the Lord of hosts.
30 “Nísinsin yìí, sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí nípa wọn: “‘Kí o sì sọ pé, Olúwa yóò bú láti òkè wá, yóò sì bú kíkankíkan sí ilẹ̀ náà. Yóò parí gbogbo olùgbé ayé, bí àwọn tí ń tẹ ìfúntí.
And you shall prophesy to them all these words, and you shall say to them: The Lord will roar from on high, and he will utter his voice from his holy habitation. When roaring, he will roar over the place of his beauty. He will call out, like those who chant in rhythm as they trample the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 Ìrọ́kẹ̀kẹ̀ yóò wà títí dé òpin ilẹ̀ ayé, nítorí pé Olúwa yóò mú ìdààmú wá sí orí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè náà, yóò mú ìdájọ́ wá sórí gbogbo ènìyàn, yóò sì fi àwọn olùṣe búburú fún idà,’” ni Olúwa wí.
The sound of it will penetrate even to the ends of the earth. For the Lord is entering into judgment with the nations. He himself is entering into judgment with all flesh. I have delivered the impious to the sword, says the Lord.”
32 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, “Wò ó! Ibi ń tànkálẹ̀ láti orílẹ̀-èdè kan sí òmíràn; ìjì ńlá yóò sì ru sókè láti òpin ayé.”
Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, an affliction will go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind will go forth from the ends of the earth.
33 Nígbà náà, àwọn tí Olúwa ti pa yóò wà ní ibi gbogbo, láti ìpẹ̀kun kan sí òmíràn. A kì yóò ṣọ̀fọ̀ wọn, a kì yóò kó wọn jọ tàbí sin wọ́n; ṣùgbọ́n wọn yóò dàbí ààtàn lórí ilẹ̀.
And the slain of the Lord will be, on that day, from one end of the earth, even to the other end. They will not be mourned, and they will not be gathered, and they will not be buried. They will lie upon the face of the earth like dung.
34 Ké, kí ẹ sì pohùnréré ẹkún ẹ̀yin olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, ẹ yí nínú eruku, ẹ̀yin olùdarí agbo ẹran. Nítorí pé ọjọ́ àti pa yín ti dé, ẹ̀yin ó sì ṣubú bí ohun èlò iyebíye.
Wail, O shepherds, and cry out! And sprinkle yourselves with ashes, O nobles of the flock! For the days have been completed that lead to your slaughter and your destruction. And you will fall like precious vessels.
35 Àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn kì yóò rí ibi sálọ kì yóò sì ṣí àsálà fún olórí agbo ẹran.
And escape will flee from the shepherds, and safety will flee from the nobility of the flock.”
36 Gbọ́ igbe àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, àti ìpohùnréré ẹkún àwọn olórí agbo ẹran; nítorí pé Olúwa ń pa pápá oko tútù wọn run.
There is a voice of outcry from the shepherds, and a wailing among the nobles among the flock! For the Lord has laid waste to their pastures.
37 Ibùgbé àlàáfíà yóò di ahoro, nítorí ìbínú ńlá Olúwa.
And the fields of peace have been silenced before the face of the fury of the Lord.
38 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí kìnnìún yóò fi ibùba rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ilẹ̀ wọn yóò sì di ahoro, nítorí idà àwọn aninilára, àti nítorí ìbínú ńlá Olúwa.
He has abandoned those he sheltered like a lion. For the earth has become a desolation before the face of the anger of the dove, and before the face of the fury of the Lord.
