< 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 Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (this was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon),
2 Nítorí náà, Jeremiah wòlíì sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Juda àti sí àwọn olùgbé Jerusalẹmu.
which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
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, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, the LORD’s word has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking; but 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.
The LORD has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them (but you have not listened or 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.
saying, “Return now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the LORD has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forever more.
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.”
Don’t go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and don’t provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; then I will do you no harm.”
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 you have not listened to me,” says the LORD, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.”
8 Nítorí náà, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ èyí: “Nítorí wí pé ẹ̀yin kò fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi,
Therefore the LORD of Hosts says: “Because you have not heard 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,” says the LORD, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around. I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual 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.
Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, 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.
This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will 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.
“It will happen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,” says the LORD, “for their iniquity. I will make the land of the Kasdim desolate forever.
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.
I will bring on that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which 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 many nations and great kings will make bondservants of them, even of them. I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work 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 the LORD, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you 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.”
They will drink, and reel back and forth, and be insane, 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.
Then I took the cup at the LORD’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, to 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, with its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is today;
19 Farao ọba Ejibiti, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn aláṣẹ rẹ̀ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes, and all his people;

and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
21 Edomu, Moabu àti Ammoni;
Edom, 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, all the kings of Sidon, 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, Tema, Buz, and all who have the corners of their beard cut off;
24 Gbogbo àwọn ọba Arabia àti àwọn ọba àwọn àjèjì ènìyàn tí ń gbé inú aginjù.
and all the kings of Arabia, all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness;
25 Gbogbo àwọn ọba Simri, Elamu àti Media.
and all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
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, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are on the surface of the earth. The king of Sheshach will 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.
“You shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says: “Drink, and be drunk, vomit, fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which 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!
It shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then you shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Hosts says: “You shall surely 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 begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on 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.
“Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and tell them, “‘The LORD will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation. He will mightily roar against his fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread 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.
A noise will come even to the end of the earth; for the LORD has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, he will give them 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.”
The LORD of Hosts says, “Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation, and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts 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.
The slain of the LORD will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They won’t be lamented. They won’t be gathered or buried. They will be dung on 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, you shepherds, and cry. Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock; for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come, and you will fall like fine pottery.
35 Àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn kì yóò rí ibi sálọ kì yóò sì ṣí àsálà fún olórí agbo ẹran.
The shepherds will have no way to flee. The leader of the flock will have no escape.
36 Gbọ́ igbe àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, àti ìpohùnréré ẹkún àwọn olórí agbo ẹran; nítorí pé Olúwa ń pa pápá oko tútù wọn run.
A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leader of the flock, for the LORD destroys their pasture.
37 Ibùgbé àlàáfíà yóò di ahoro, nítorí ìbínú ńlá Olúwa.
The peaceful folds are brought to silence because of the fierce 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 has left his covert, as the lion; for their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppression, and because of his fierce anger.
