< Jeremiah 30 >

1 Ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó tọ Jeremiah wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá, wí pé:
The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
2 “Báyìí ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, pé: ‘Ìwọ kọ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ tí mo ti bá ọ sọ sínú ìwé kan.
'Thus spake Jehovah, God of Israel, saying, Write for thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee on a book.
3 Ọjọ́ ń bọ̀ nígbà tí ń ó mú àwọn ènìyàn mi, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli àti Juda kúrò nínú ìgbèkùn, tí n ó sì dá wọn padà sí orí ilẹ̀ tí mo fi fún àwọn baba ńlá wọn láti ní,’ ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wí.”
For, lo, days are coming — an affirmation of Jehovah — and I have turned back [to] the captivity of My people Israel and Judah, said Jehovah, and I have caused them to turn back unto the land that I gave to their fathers, and they do possess it.'
4 Ìwọ̀nyí ni àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run sí Israẹli àti Juda:
And these [are] the words that Jehovah hath spoken concerning Israel and concerning Judah:
5 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “‘Igbe ẹ̀rù àti ìwárìrì ni a gbọ́ láìṣe igbe àlàáfíà.
Surely thus said Jehovah: A voice of trembling we have heard, Fear — and there is no peace.
6 Béèrè kí o sì rí. Ǹjẹ́ ọkùnrin le dá ọmọ bí? Èéṣe tí mo fi ń rí àwọn alágbára ọkùnrin tí wọ́n fi ọwọ́ wọn mú inú wọn bí obìnrin tó ń rọbí, tí ojú gbogbo wọ́n sì fàro fún ìrora?
Ask, I pray you, and see, is a male bringing forth? Wherefore have I seen every man, His hands on his loins, as a travailing woman, And all faces have been turned to paleness?
7 Ọjọ́ náà yóò ha ti burú tó! Kò sí ọjọ́ tí yóò dàbí rẹ̀, Ọjọ́ náà yóò jẹ́ àkókò ìdààmú fún Jakọbu ṣùgbọ́n yóò rí ìgbàlà kúrò nínú ìdààmú náà.
Woe! for great [is] that day, without any like it, Yea, a time of adversity it [is] to Jacob, Yet out of it he is saved.
8 “‘Ní ọjọ́ náà,’ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò gbé àjàgà kúrò lọ́rùn wọn, Èmi yóò sì tú ìdè wọn sọnù. Àwọn àjèjì kì yóò sì mú ọ sìn wọ́n mọ́.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, I break his yoke from off thy neck, And thy bands I draw away, And lay no more service on him do strangers.
9 Dípò bẹ́ẹ̀ wọn yóò máa sin Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn àti Dafidi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba wọn, ẹni tí èmi yóò gbé dìde fún wọn.
And they have served Jehovah their God, And David their king whom I raise up to them.
10 “‘Nítorí náà, má ṣe bẹ̀rù, ìwọ Jakọbu ìránṣẹ́ mi, má sì ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹ̀rù bà ọ́, ìwọ Israẹli,’ ni Olúwa wí. ‘Èmi yóò gbà ọ́ kúrò láti ọ̀nà jíjìn wá, àní àwọn ìran rẹ láti ilẹ̀ àtìpó wọn. Jakọbu yóò sì tún ní àlàáfíà àti ààbò rẹ̀ padà, kò sì ṣí ẹni tí yóò ṣẹ̀rù bà á mọ́.
And thou, be not afraid, My servant Jacob, An affirmation of Jehovah, Nor be affrighted, O Israel, For, lo, I am saving thee from afar, And thy seed from the land of their captivity, And Jacob hath turned back and rested, And is quiet, and there is none troubling.
11 Èmi wà pẹ̀lú rẹ, n ó sì gbà ọ́,’ ni Olúwa wí. ‘Bí mo tilẹ̀ pa gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè run, nínú èyí tí mo ti fọ́n ọn yín ká, síbẹ̀ èmi kì yóò pa yín run pátápátá. Èmi yóò bá yín wí pẹ̀lú ìdájọ́ òdodo nìkan; Èmi kò ní fi yín sílẹ̀ láìjìyà.’
For with thee [am] I, An affirmation of Jehovah — to save thee, For I make an end of all the nations Whither I have scattered thee, Only, of thee I do not make an end, And I have chastised thee in judgment, And do not entirely acquit thee.
12 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “‘Ọgbẹ́ yín kò gbóògùn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni egbò yín kọjá ìwòsàn.
For thus said Jehovah: Incurable is thy breach, grievous thy stroke,
13 Kò sí ẹnìkan tí yóò bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún àìṣedéédéé yín, kò sí ètùtù fún ọgbẹ́ yín, a kò sì mú yín láradá.
There is none judging thy cause to bind up, Healing medicines there are none for thee.
14 Gbogbo àwọn olùfẹ́ rẹ ti gbàgbé rẹ, wọn kò sì náání rẹ mọ́ pẹ̀lú. Mo ti nà ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀tá rẹ yóò ti nà ọ, mo sì bá a ọ wí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìkà, nítorí tí ẹ̀bi rẹ pọ̀ púpọ̀, ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ kò sì lóǹkà.
all loving thee have forgotten thee, Thee they do not seek, For with the stroke of an enemy I smote thee, The chastisement of a fierce one, Because of the abundance of thy iniquity, Mighty have been thy sins!
15 Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi ń kígbe nítorí ọgbẹ́ yín, ìrora yín èyí tí kò ní oògùn? Nítorí ọ̀pọ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín àti ẹ̀bi yín tó ga ni mo fi ṣe àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí sí i yín.
What! — thou criest concerning thy breach! Incurable [is] thy pain, Because of the abundance of thy iniquity, Mighty have been thy sins! I have done these to thee.
16 “‘Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó bá ṣe yín ní ibi ni ibi yóò bá, àní gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá yín ni a ó sọ di àtìpó ní ilẹ̀ àjèjì; gbogbo àwọn tí wọ́n bà yín jẹ́ ni a ó bàjẹ́.
Therefore all consuming thee are consumed, And all thine adversaries — all of them — Into captivity do go, And thy spoilers have been for a spoil, And all thy plunderers I give up to plunder.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò fi ẹ̀kúnrẹ́rẹ́ ìlera fún yín, èmi yóò sì wo ọ̀gbẹ́ yín sàn,’ ni Olúwa wí, ‘nítorí tí a pè yín ní alárìnkiri, Sioni tí gbogbo ènìyàn dágunlá sí.’
For I increase health to thee, And from thy strokes I do heal thee, An affirmation of Jehovah, For 'Outcast' they have called to thee, 'Zion it [is], there is none seeking for her.'
18 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “‘Èmi yóò dá gbogbo ìre àgọ́ Jakọbu padà, èmi yóò sì ṣe àánú fún olùgbé àgọ́ rẹ̀; ìlú náà yóò sì di títúnṣe tí ààfin ìlú náà yóò sì wà ní ipò rẹ̀.
Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I turn back [to] the captivity of the tents of Jacob, And his dwelling places I pity, And the city hath been built on its heap, And the palace according to its ordinance remaineth.
19 Láti ẹnu wọn ni orin ọpẹ́ àti ìyìn yóò sì ti máa jáde. Èmi yóò sọ wọ́n di púpọ̀, wọn kì yóò sì dínkù ní iye, Èmi yóò fi ọlá fún wọn, wọn kò sì ní di ẹni àbùkù.
And gone forth from them hath thanksgiving, And the voice of playful ones, And I have multiplied them and they are not few, And made them honourable, and they are not small.
20 Ọmọ ọmọ wọn yóò wà bí i ti ìgbàanì níwájú mi ni wọn yóò sì tẹ àwùjọ wọn dúró sí. Gbogbo ẹni tó bá ni wọ́n lára, ni èmi yóò fì ìyà jẹ.
And his sons have been as aforetime, And his company before Me is established, And I have seen after all his oppressors.
21 Ọ̀kan nínú wọn ni yóò jẹ́ olórí wọn, ọba wọn yóò dìde láti àárín wọn. Èmi yóò mú un wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi, òun yóò sì súnmọ́ mi, nítorí ta ni ẹni náà tí yóò fi ara rẹ̀ jì láti súnmọ́ mi?’ ni Olúwa wí.
And his honourable one hath been of himself, And his ruler from his midst goeth forth, And I have caused him to draw near, And he hath drawn nigh unto Me, For who [is] he who hath pledged his heart To draw nigh unto Me? An affirmation of Jehovah.
22 ‘Nítorí náà, ẹ̀yin yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn mi, èmi yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run yín.’”
And ye have been to Me for a people, And I am to you for God.
23 Wò ó, ìbínú Olúwa yóò tú jáde, ìjì líle yóò sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ sórí àwọn ènìyàn búburú.
Lo, a whirlwind of Jehovah — Fury hath gone forth — a cutting whirlwind, On the head of the wicked it stayeth.
24 Ìbínú ńlá Olúwa kò ní dẹ̀yìn lẹ́yìn àwọn ìkà títí yóò fi mú èrò ọkàn rẹ̀ ṣẹ. Ní àìpẹ́ ọjọ́, òye rẹ̀ yóò yé e yín.
The fierceness of the anger of Jehovah Doth not turn back till His doing, Yea, till His establishing the devices of His heart, In the latter end of the days we consider it!
