< 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 concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah, which is the first year of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon;
2 Nítorí náà, Jeremiah wòlíì sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Juda àti sí àwọn olùgbé Jerusalẹmu.
Which Jeremiah the prophet spoke concerning 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, that is now three and twenty years, the word of the Lord hath come unto me, and I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye have not hearkened.
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 hath sent unto you all his servants the prophets, making [them] rise early and sending [them]; but ye have not hearkened, and have not inclined your ear to 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.
They said, O do turn away every one from his evil way, and from the wrongfulness of your doings; and ye shall remain in the land that the Lord hath given unto you and to your fathers, for from eternity to eternity;
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 go not after other gods to serve them, and to bow down to them, and provoke me not to anger with the works of your hands; and I will not injure 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.”
Yet have ye not hearkened unto me, saith the Lord: in order that ye might provoke me to anger with the works of your own hands to your own injury.
8 Nítorí náà, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ èyí: “Nítorí wí pé ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi,
Therefore thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Because ye have not hearkened 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 and take all the families of the north, saith the Lord, and to Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and I will bring them over this land, and over its inhabitants, and over all these nations round about, and I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a derision, and perpetual ruins.
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 banish from them the voice of gladness, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the mill, 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 whole land shall become a ruin and an [object of] astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon 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 it shall come to pass, when seventy years are completed, that I will visit on the king of Babylon, and on that nation, saith the Lord, their iniquity, and on the land of the Chaldeans, and will change it into perpetual 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 bring over that land all my words which I have spoken concerning it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied concerning 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 when many nations and great kings shall have made them also serve: I will then recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their own 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 hath said the Lord the God of Israel unto me, Take the cup of the wine of this fury out of my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send thee to drink 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 shall drink, and reel about, and be mad, because 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 took the cup out of the hand of the Lord, and caused to drink all the nations, unto whom the Lord had sent me:
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 princes, to make them a ruin, an astonishment, a derision, and a curse; as it is this day;
19 Farao ọba Ejibiti, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn aláṣẹ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, 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 all the confederated nations, and all the kings of the land of 'Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gazzah, and 'Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
21 Edomu, Moabu àti Ammoni;
Edom, and Moab, and the children 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 Zidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea;
23 Dedani, Tema, Busi àti gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé lọ́nà jíjìn réré.
Dedan, and Thema, and Buz, and all those that have their hair cut round;
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 confederated nations that dwell in the wilderness;
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 all the kings of the north, that are far and that are near, one with another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth; and the king of Sheshach 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 thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Drink ye, and become drunken, and vomit, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword, which I am sending 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 it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup of thy hand to drink, that thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Ye must certainly 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 lo, on the city which is called by my name, I begin to inflict evil, and ye will remain utterly unpunished? Ye shall not remain unpunished; for a sword am I calling up over all the inhabitants of the earth, saith 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.
But thou, do thou prophesy concerning them all these words, and say unto them, The Lord will cry aloud from on high, and from his holy habitation will he send forth his voice; he will cry out very loudly over his habitation; the vintner's call, as they that tread out the grapes, will he lift up 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.
A tumultuous noise cometh even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he holdeth judgment over all flesh: the wicked, —these he giveth up to the sword, saith 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 hath said the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil goeth forth from nation to nation, and a great storm-wind waketh up from the farthest 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 shall be on that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, nor gathered up, nor buried; they shall be as dung upon the surface of the ground.
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, ye shepherds, and cry; and roll yourselves about [in the dust], ye leaders of the flocks; for full are your days for you to be slaughtered, and I will scatter you; and you shall fall like a costly vessel.
35 Àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn kì yóò rí ibi sálọ kì yóò sì ṣí àsálà fún olórí agbo ẹran.
And lost shall be the place of refuge for the shepherds, and the escape for the leaders of the flocks to escape.
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 the voice of the cry of anguish of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leaders of the flocks; for the Lord hath devastated their pasture.
37 Ibùgbé àlàáfíà yóò di ahoro, nítorí ìbínú ńlá Olúwa.
And in silent desolation lie the pasture-lands of peace, because of the fierceness of the anger 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 hath forsaken his covert, like the young lion; for their land is become desolate, because of the fierceness of the wasting [sword], and because of the fierceness of his anger.
