Jeremiah 26
1 Ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀pẹ̀ ìjọba ọba Jehoiakimu ọmọ Josiah tí ń ṣe ọba Juda, ọ̀rọ̀ yìí wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa:
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, hath this word been from Jehovah, saying:
2 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, Dúró ní àgbàlá ilé Olúwa, kí o sì sọ fún gbogbo ènìyàn ilẹ̀ Juda tí ó ti wá láti wá jọ́sìn ní ilé Olúwa, sọ fún gbogbo ohun tí mo pàṣẹ fún ọ; má ṣaláìsọ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ náà.
'Thus said Jehovah, Stand thou in the court of the house of Jehovah, and thou hast spoken unto all [those of] the cities of Judah who are coming in to bow themselves in the house of Jehovah, all the words that I have commanded thee to speak unto them, thou dost not diminish a word.
3 Bóyá gbogbo wọn máa gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ náà tí ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn yóò kúrò nínú ìwà búburú wọn. Èmi ó yí ọkàn padà, n kò sì ní fi ibi tí mo ti rò sí wọn ṣe wọ́n.
If so be they hearken, and turn back each from his evil way, then I have repented concerning the evil that I am thinking of doing to them, because of the evil of their doings.
4 Sọ fún wọn wí pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: Tí ẹ kò bá fi etí sí ọ̀rọ̀ mi, tí ẹ kò sì gbọ́ òfin mi, ti mo gbé kalẹ̀ níwájú yín,
'And thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah, If ye do not hearken unto Me, to walk in My law, that I set before you,
5 àti tí ẹ kò bá gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi, àwọn wòlíì tí mo rán sí i yín léraléra (ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò gbọ́),
To hearken to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I am sending unto you, yea, rising early and sending, and ye have not hearkened,
6 nígbà náà ni èmi yóò ṣe ilé yìí bí Ṣilo, èmi yóò sì ṣe ìlú yìí ní ìfibú sí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé.’”
Then I have given up this house as Shiloh, and this city I give up for a reviling to all nations of the earth.'
7 Àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn wòlíì àti gbogbo ènìyàn ni ó gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Jeremiah tí ó sọ ní ilé Olúwa.
And the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, hear Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of Jehovah,
8 Ṣùgbọ́n ní kété tí Jeremiah ti parí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ tí Olúwa pàṣẹ láti sọ; àwọn àlùfáà, àti gbogbo ènìyàn dìímú, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Kíkú ni ìwọ yóò kú!
And it cometh to pass, at the completion of Jeremiah's speaking all that Jehovah hath commanded him to speak unto all the people, that the priests, and the prophets, and all the people catch him, saying, Thou dost surely die,
9 Kí ló dé tí ìwọ ṣe sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní orúkọ Olúwa pé, ilé yìí yóò dàbí Ṣilo, orílẹ̀-èdè yìí yóò sì di ahoro tí kì yóò ní olùgbé.” Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì kójọpọ̀ pẹ̀lú Jeremiah nínú ilé Olúwa.
Wherefore hast thou prophesied in the name of Jehovah, saying, 'As Shiloh this house shall be, and this city is wasted, without inhabitant?' and all the people are assembled unto Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah.
10 Nígbà tí àwọn aláṣẹ Juda gbọ́ nípa nǹkan wọ̀nyí, wọ́n lọ láti ààfin ọba sí ilé Olúwa, wọ́n sì mú ààyè wọn, wọ́n jókòó ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà tuntun ilé Olúwa.
And the heads of Judah hear these things, and they go up from the house of the king [to] the house of Jehovah, and sit in the opening of the new gate of Jehovah.
11 Àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn wòlíì sọ fún àwọn aláṣẹ àti gbogbo ènìyàn pé, “Arákùnrin yìí gbọdọ̀ gba ìdájọ́ ikú nítorí pé ó sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ lórí ìlú yìí: bí ẹ̀yin ti fi etí yín gbọ́!”
And the priests and the prophets speak unto the heads, and unto all the people, saying, 'Judgment of death [is] for this man, for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your ears.'
12 Nígbà náà ni Jeremiah sọ fún gbogbo àwọn aláṣẹ àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn wí pé: “Olúwa rán mi láti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní ilé yìí àti ìlú yìí, gbogbo ohun tí ẹ ti gbọ́.
And Jeremiah speaketh unto all the heads, and unto all the people, saying, 'Jehovah sent me to prophesy concerning this house, and concerning this city, all the words that ye have heard;
13 Nísinsin yìí, tún ọ̀nà rẹ ṣe àti ìṣe rẹ, kí ẹ sì gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín. Olúwa yóò yí ọkàn rẹ̀ padà, kò sì ní mú ohun gbogbo tí ó ti sọ jáde ní búburú ṣẹ lórí yín.
And now, amend your ways, and your doings, and hearken to the voice of Jehovah your God, and Jehovah doth repent concerning the evil that He hath spoken against you.
14 Bí ó bá ṣe tèmi ni, èmi wà ní ọwọ́ yín, ẹ ṣe ohun tí ẹ̀yin bá rò pé ó dára, tí ó sì tọ́ lójú yín fún mi.
'And I, lo, I [am] in your hand, do to me as is good and as is right in your eyes;
15 Ẹ mọ̀ dájú pé tí ẹ bá pa mí, ẹ ó mú ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ wá sórí ara yín, sórí ìlú yìí àti àwọn olùgbé inú rẹ̀; nítorí pé nítòótọ́ ni Olúwa ti rán mi láti sọ ọ̀rọ̀ yìí fún un yín.”
Only, know ye certainly, that if ye are putting me to death, surely innocent blood ye are putting on yourselves, and on this city, and on its inhabitants; for truly hath Jehovah sent me unto you to speak in your ears all these words.'
16 Nígbà náà ni àwọn aláṣẹ àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sọ fún àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn wòlíì pé, “Ẹ má ṣe pa ọkùnrin yìí nítorí ó ti bá wa sọ̀rọ̀ ní orúkọ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun.”
And the heads and all the people say unto the priests and unto the prophets, 'There is not for this man a judgment of death, for in the name of Jehovah our God he hath spoken unto us.'
17 Lára àwọn àgbàgbà ilẹ̀ náà sì sún síwájú, wọ́n sì sọ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn náà wí pé,
And certain of the elders of the land rise up, and speak unto all the assembly of the people, saying,
18 “Mika ti Moreṣeti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ Hesekiah ọba Juda. Ó sọ fún gbogbo ènìyàn Juda pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “‘A ó sì fa Sioni tu bí oko Jerusalẹmu yóò di òkìtì àlàpà àti òkè ilẹ̀ yìí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ibi gíga igbó.’
'Micah the Morashtite hath been prophesying in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and he saith unto all the people of Judah, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Zion is a plowed field, and Jerusalem is heaps, And the mountain of the house is for high places of a forest.
19 Ǹjẹ́ Hesekiah ọba Juda tàbí ẹnikẹ́ni ní Juda pa á bí? Ǹjẹ́ Hesekiah kò bẹ̀rù Olúwa tí ó sì wá ojúrere rẹ̀? Ǹjẹ́ Olúwa kò ha a sì yí ìpinnu rẹ̀ padà, tí kò sì mú ibi tí ó ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ yẹ̀ kúrò lórí wọn? Ibi ni a fẹ́ mú wá sórí ara wa yìí.”
'Put him at all to death did Hezekiah king of Judah, and all Judah? Did he not fear Jehovah? yea, he appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and Jehovah repenteth concerning the evil that He spake against them; and we are doing great evil against our souls.
20 (Bákan náà Uriah ọmọ Ṣemaiah láti Kiriati-Jearimu jẹ́ ọkùnrin mìíràn tí ó sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ kan náà ní orúkọ Olúwa. Ó sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ kan náà sí ìlú náà àti ilẹ̀ yín bí Jeremiah ti ṣe.
'And also there hath been a man prophesying in the name of Jehovah, Urijah son of Shemaiah, of Kirjath-Jearim, and he prophesieth against this city, and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah,
21 Nígbà tí ọba Jehoiakimu àti gbogbo àwọn aláṣẹ gbọ́ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, ọba ń wá láti pa á: ṣùgbọ́n Uriah gbọ́ èyí, ẹ̀rù bà á, ó sì sálọ sí Ejibiti.
And the king Jehoiakim, and all his mighty ones, and all the heads, hear his words, and the king seeketh to put him to death, and Urijah heareth, and feareth, and fleeth, and goeth in to Egypt.
22 Ọba Jehoiakimu rán Elnatani ọmọ Akbori lọ sí Ejibiti pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin mìíràn.
And the king Jehoiakim sendeth men to Egypt — Elnathan son of Achbor, and men with him unto Egypt —
23 Wọ́n sì mú Uriah láti Ejibiti lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba Jehoiakimu; ẹni tí ó fi idà pa, ó sì sọ òkú rẹ̀ sí inú isà òkú àwọn ènìyàn lásán.)
And they bring out Urijah from Egypt, and bring him in unto the king Jehoiakim, and he smiteth him with a sword, and casteth his corpse unto the graves of the sons of the people.'
24 Ahikamu ọmọ Ṣafani ń bẹ pẹ̀lú Jeremiah, wọn kò sì fi í lé àwọn ènìyàn lọ́wọ́ láti pa á.
Only, the hand of Ahikam son of Shaphan hath been with Jeremiah so as not to give him up into the hand of the people to put him to death.
