Jeremiah 31
1 “Nígbà náà, Èmi yóò jẹ́ Ọlọ́run fún gbogbo ìdílé ìran Israẹli, àwọn náà yóò sì jẹ́ ènìyàn mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
Thus has the Lord said concerning MOAB, Woe to Nabau! for it has perished: Cariathaim is taken: Amath and Agath are put to shame.
2 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Àwọn ènìyàn tí ó sá àsálà lọ́wọ́ idà yóò rí ojúrere Olúwa ní aṣálẹ̀, Èmi yóò sì fi ìsinmi fún Israẹli.”
There is no longer any healing for Moab, [nor] glorying in Esebon: he has devised evils against her: we have cut her off from [being] a nation, and she shall be completely still: after thee shall go a sword;
3 Olúwa ti fi ara rẹ̀ hàn wá ní ìgbà kan rí, ó wí pé: “Èmi ti nífẹ̀ẹ́ yín pẹ̀lú ìfẹ́ àìlópin; mo ti fi ìfẹ́ ńlá fà yín,
for [there is] a voice of [men] crying out of Oronaim, destruction and great ruin.
4 Èmi yóò tún gbé e yín sókè, àní a ó tún gbé e yín ró ìwọ wúńdíá ilẹ̀ Israẹli. Àní ẹ ó tún tún ohun èlò orin yín gbé, ẹ ó sì jáde síta pẹ̀lú ijó àti ayọ̀.
Moab is ruined, proclaim [it] to Zogora:
5 Ẹ ó tún gbin ọgbà àjàrà ní orí òkè Samaria; àwọn àgbẹ̀ yóò sì máa gbádùn èso oko wọn.
for Aloth is filled with weeping: one shall go up weeping by the way of Oronaim; ye have heard a cry of destruction.
6 Ọjọ́ kan máa wà tí àwọn olùṣọ́ yóò kígbe jáde lórí òkè Efraimu wí pé, ‘Ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a gòkè lọ sí Sioni, ní ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.’”
Flee ye, and save your lives, and ye shall be as a wild ass in the desert.
7 Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa sọ wí pé: “Ẹ fi ayọ̀ kọrin sí Jakọbu; ẹ hó sí olórí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè gbogbo. Jẹ́ kí wọ́n gbọ́ ìyìn rẹ kí o sì wí pé, ‘Olúwa, gba àwọn ènìyàn rẹ là; àwọn tí ó ṣẹ́kù ní Israẹli.’
Since thou hast trusted in thy strong-hold, therefore thou shalt be taken: and Chamos shall go forth into captivity, and his priests, and his princes together.
8 Wò ó, Èmi yóò mú wọn wá láti ilẹ̀ àríwá; èmi yóò kó gbogbo wọn jọ láti òpin ayé. Lára wọn ni yóò jẹ́ afọ́jú àti arọ, aboyún àti obìnrin tí ń rọbí, ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn yóò wá.
And destruction shall come upon every city, it shall by no means escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain country shall be completely destroyed, as the Lord has said.
9 Wọn yóò wá pẹ̀lú ẹkún, wọn yóò gbàdúrà bí Èmi yóò ṣe mú wọn padà. Èmi yóò jẹ́ atọ́nà fún wọn ní ẹ̀bá odò omi; ní ọ̀nà tí ó tẹ́jú tí wọn kì yóò le ṣubú, nítorí èmi ni baba Israẹli, Efraimu sì ni àkọ́bí ọkùnrin mi.
Set marks upon Moab, for she shall be touched with a plague-spot, and all her cities shall become desolate; whence [shall there be] an inhabitant for her?
10 “Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ẹ̀yin orílẹ̀-èdè ẹ kéde rẹ̀ ní erékùṣù jíjìn; ‘Ẹni tí ó bá tú Israẹli ká yóò kójọ, yóò sì ṣọ́ agbo rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí olùṣọ́-àgùntàn.’
Cursed is the man that does the works of the Lord carelessly, keeping back his sword from blood.
11 Nítorí Olúwa ti tú Jakọbu sílẹ̀, o sì rà á padà ní ọwọ́ àwọn tí ó lágbára jù ú lọ.
Moab has been at ease from a child, and trusted in his glory; he has not poured out [his liquor] from vessel to vessel, and has not gone into banishment, therefore his taste remained in him, and his smell departed not.
12 Wọn yóò wá, wọn ó sì hó ìhó ayọ̀ lórí òkè Sioni; wọn yóò yọ ayọ̀ níbi oore Olúwa. Àlìkámà ni, ọtí wáìnì tuntun àti òróró ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn àti ọ̀dọ́ ọ̀wọ́ ẹran. Wọn ó dàbí ọgbà àjàrà tí a bomirin, ìkorò kò ní bá wọn mọ́.
Therefore, behold, his days come, saith the Lord, when I shall send upon him bad leaders, and they shall lead him astray, and they shall utterly break in pieces his possessions, and shall cut his horns asunder.
13 Àwọn wúńdíá yóò jó, wọn ó sì kún fún ayọ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni ọkùnrin àti obìnrin. Èmi yóò sọ ọ̀fọ̀ wọn di ayọ̀, dípò ìkorò èmi yóò tù wọ́n nínú. Èmi ó sì fún wọn ní ayọ̀.
And Moab shall be ashamed of Chamos, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Baethel their hope, having trusted in them.
14 Èmi ó tẹ́ àwọn àlùfáà lọ́rùn pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀; àwọn ènìyàn mi yóò sì kún fún oore mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
How will ye say, We are strong, and men strong for war?
15 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “A gbọ́ ohùn kan ní Rama tí ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ pẹ̀lú ẹkún kíkorò. Rakeli ń sọkún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀; kò gbà kí wọ́n tu òun nínú, nítorí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ kò sí mọ́.”
Moab is ruined, [even] his city, and his choice young men have gone down to slaughter.
16 Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: “Dá ohùn rẹ dúró nínú ẹkún àti ojú rẹ nínú omijé; nítorí a ó fi èrè sí iṣẹ́ rẹ,” ni Olúwa wí. “Wọn ó sì padà wá láti ilẹ̀ ọ̀tá.
The day of Moab is near at hand, and his iniquity moves swiftly [to vengeance].
17 Nítorí ìrètí wà fún ọjọ́ iwájú rẹ,” ni Olúwa wí. “Àwọn ọmọ rẹ yóò padà wá sí ilẹ̀ wọn.
Shake [the head] at him, all ye that are round about him; all [of you] utter his name; say ye, How is the glorious staff broken to pieces, the rod of magnificence!
18 “Nítòótọ́, èmi ti gbọ́ ìpohùnréré Efraimu wí pé, ‘Ìwọ ti bá mi wí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọmọ màlúù tí a kò kọ́ èmi sì ti gbọ́ ìbáwí. Rà mí padà, èmi yóò sì yípadà, nítorí ìwọ ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run mi.
Come down from [thy] glory, and sit down in a damp place: Daebon shall be broken, because Moab is destroyed: there has gone up against thee one to ravage thy strong-hold.
19 Lẹ́yìn tí èmi ti yípadà, mo ronúpìwàdà, lẹ́yìn tí èmi ti wá mọ̀, èmi lu àyà mi. Ojú tì mí, mo sì dààmú; nítorí èmi gba èrè ẹ̀gàn ìgbà èwe mi.’
Stand by the way, and look, thou that dwellest in Arer; and ask him that is fleeing, and him that escapes, and say, What has happened?
20 Efraimu kì í ha í ṣe ọmọkùnrin mi dáradára tí inú mi dùn sí bí? Bí èmi ti ń sọ̀rọ̀ sí i tó, síbẹ̀, èmi rántí rẹ̀. Nítorí náà, ọkàn mi ṣe ohun kan fún un, èmi káàánú gidigidi fún un,” ni Olúwa wí.
Moab is put to shame, because he is broken: howl and cry; proclaim in Arnon, that Moab has perished.
21 “Gbé àmì ojú ọ̀nà dìde, ṣe atọ́nà àmì, kíyèsi òpópó ọ̀nà geere ojú ọ̀nà tí ó ń gbà. Yípadà ìwọ wúńdíá Israẹli, padà sí àwọn ìlú rẹ.
And judgment is coming against the land of Misor, upon Chelon, and Rephas, and Mophas,
22 Ìwọ yóò ti ṣìnà pẹ́ tó, ìwọ aláìṣòótọ́ ọmọbìnrin; Olúwa yóò dá ohun tuntun lórí ilẹ̀, ọmọbìnrin kan yóò yí ọkùnrin kan ká.”
and upon Daebon, and upon Nabau, and upon the house of Daethlathaim,
23 Báyìí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun Israẹli wí: “Nígbà tí èmi bá kó wọn dé láti ìgbèkùn; àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ Juda àti ní àwọn ìlú rẹ̀ yóò tún lo àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ yìí lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i; wí pé, ‘Kí Olúwa kí ó bùkún fún ọ, ìwọ ibùgbé òdodo, ìwọ òkè ìwà mímọ́.’
and upon Cariathaim, and upon the house of Gaemol, and upon the house of Maon,
24 Àwọn ènìyàn yóò gbé papọ̀ ní Juda àti ní gbogbo àwọn ìlú rẹ̀; bákan náà ni àgbẹ̀ àti àwọn tí ń tẹ̀lé agbo ẹran wọn ká.
and upon Carioth, and upon Bosor, and upon all the cities of Moab, far and near.
25 Èmi yóò sọ aláàárẹ̀ di ọ̀tun, èmi yóò sì tẹ́ gbogbo ọkàn tí ń káàánú lọ́rùn.”
The horn of Moab is broken, and his arm is crushed.
26 Lórí èyí ni mo jí, mo sì wò yíká, oorun mi sì dùn mọ́ mi.
Make ye him drunk; for he has magnified himself against the Lord: and Moab shall clap with his hand, and shall be also himself a laughing-stock.
27 “Wò ó, ọjọ́ ń bọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “nígbà tí èmi yóò gbin ilé Israẹli àti ilé Juda pẹ̀lú irúgbìn ọmọ ènìyàn àti ẹranko.
For surely Israel was to thee a laughing-stock, and was found among thy thefts, because thou didst fight against him.
28 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ṣe ń ṣọ́ wọn, láti fàtu, àti láti wó lulẹ̀, àti láti gba ìṣàkóso, láti bàjẹ́ àti láti mú ibi wá, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ṣọ́ wọn láti kọ́ àti láti gbìn,” ni Olúwa wí.
The inhabitants of Moab have left the cities, and dwelt in rocks; they have become as doves nestling in rocks, at the mouth of a cave.
29 “Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì àwọn ènìyàn kò ní sọ mọ́ pé: “‘Àwọn baba ti jẹ èso àjàrà àìpọ́n àti pé eyín kan àwọn ọmọdé.’
And I have heard of the pride of Moab, he has greatly heightened his pride and his haughtiness, and his heart has been lifted up.
30 Ṣùgbọ́n olúkúlùkù ni yóò kú fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá jẹ èso kíkan ni eyín yóò kan.
But I know his works: is it not enough for him? has he not done thus?
31 “Ìgbà kan ń bọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “tí Èmi yóò bá ilé Israẹli àti ilé Juda dá májẹ̀mú tuntun.
Therefore howl ye for Moab on all sides; cry out against the shorn men [in] a gloomy place. I will weep for thee,
32 Kò ní dàbí májẹ̀mú tí mo bá àwọn baba ńlá wọn dá, nígbà tí mo fà wọ́n lọ́wọ́, tí mo mú wọn jáde ní Ejibiti nítorí wọ́n da májẹ̀mú mi. Lóòótọ́ ọkọ ni èmi jẹ́ fún wọn,” ni Olúwa wí.
O vine of Aserema, as with the weeping of Jazer: thy branches are gone over the sea, they reached the cities of Jazer: destruction has come upon thy fruits, [and] upon thy grape-gatherers.
33 “Èyí ni májẹ̀mú tí èmi yóò bá ilé Israẹli dá lẹ́yìn ìgbà náà,” ni Olúwa wí pé: “Èmi yóò fi òfin mi sí ọkàn wọn, èmi ó sì kọ ọ́ sí àyà wọn. Èmi ó jẹ́ Olúwa wọn; àwọn ó sì jẹ́ ènìyàn mi.
Joy and gladness have been utterly swept off the land of Moab: and [though] there was wine in thy presses, in the morning they trod it not, neither in the evening did they raise the cry of joy.
34 Kò ní sí pé ọkùnrin kan ń kọ́ àwọn ará ilé rẹ̀ tàbí ọkùnrin ń kọ́ arákùnrin rẹ̀ pé, ‘Ẹ mọ Olúwa,’ nítorí gbogbo wọn ni yóò mọ̀ mí láti ẹni kékeré wọn títí dé ẹni ńlá,” ni Olúwa wí. “Nítorí èmi ó dárí àìṣedéédéé wọn jì, èmi kò sì ní rántí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn mọ́.”
From the cry of Esebon even to Aetam their cities uttered their voice, from Zogor to Oronaim, and their tidings [as] a heifer of three years old, for the water also of Nebrin shall be dried up.
35 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: ẹni tí ó mú oòrùn tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ ní ọ̀sán, tí ó mú òṣùpá àti ìràwọ̀ ràn ní òru; tí ó rú omi Òkun sókè tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ìjì rẹ̀ fi ń hó Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀.
And I will destroy Moab, saith the Lord, as he comes up to the altar, and burns incense to his gods.
36 “Àyàfi tí ìlànà yìí bá kúrò níwájú mi,” ni Olúwa wí. “Ǹjẹ́ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò dẹ́kun láti jẹ́ orílẹ̀-èdè níwájú mi láéláé.”
Therefore the heart of Moab shall sound as pipes, my heart shall sound as a pipe for the shorn men; forasmuch as what [every] man has gained has perished from him.
37 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Àyàfi tí a bá lé àwọn ọ̀run lókè tí ìpìlẹ̀ ayé sì di àwárí ní ìsàlẹ̀, ni èmi yóò kọ àwọn Israẹli nítorí ohun gbogbo tí wọ́n ti ṣe,” ni Olúwa wí.
They shall all have their heads shaved in every place, and every beard shall be shaved; and all hands shall beat [the breasts], and on all loins shall be sackcloth.
38 “Ọjọ́ náà ń bọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí, “tí wọn yóò tún ìlú yìí kọ́ fún mi láti ilé ìṣọ́ Hananeli dé igun ẹnu ibodè.
And on all the housetops of Moab, and in his streets [shall be mourning]: for I have broken [him], saith the Lord, as a vessel, which is useless.
39 Okùn ìwọ̀n yóò sì nà jáde láti ibi gígùn lọ sí òkè Garebu yóò sì lọ sí Goa.
How has he changed! how has Moab turned [his] back! Moab is put to shame, and become a laughing-stock, and an object of anger to all that are round about him.
40 Gbogbo àfonífojì níbi tí wọ́n ń da òkú àti eérú sí, àti gbogbo àfonífojì Kidironi ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn títí dé igun ẹnu ibodè ẹṣin yóò jẹ́ mímọ́ sí Olúwa. A kì yóò fa ìlú náà tu tàbí kí a wó o palẹ̀.”
For thus said the Lord;
Carioth is taken, and the strong-holds have been taken together.
And Moab shall perish from being a multitude, because he has magnified himself against the Lord.
A snare, and fear, and the pit, are upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab.
He that flees from the terror shall fall into the pit, and he that comes up out of the pit shall even be taken in the snare: for I will bring these things upon Moab in the year of their visitation.
