< Jeremiah 33 >

1 Nígbà tí Jeremiah wà nínú àgbàlá túbú, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ ọ́ wá lẹ́ẹ̀kejì:
Then the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah a second time, while he was still shut within the courtyard of the guard, saying,
2 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ, ẹni tí ó dá ayé, Olúwa tí ó mọ ayé tí ó sì fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀, Olúwa ni orúkọ rẹ̀:
“Yahweh the maker, says this—Yahweh, who forms in order to establish—Yahweh is his name,
3 ‘Pè mí, èmi ó sì dá ọ lóhùn, èmi ó sì sọ ohun alágbára ńlá àti ọ̀pọ̀ ohun tí kò ṣe é wádìí tí ìwọ kò mọ̀ fún ọ.’
'Call to me, and I will answer you. I will demonstrate great things to you, mysteries that you do not understand.'
4 Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Israẹli sọ nípa àwọn ilẹ̀ ìlú yìí àti ààfin àwọn ọba Juda tí ó ti wó lulẹ̀ nítorí àwọn ìdọ̀tí àti idà
For Yahweh, God of Israel, says this concerning the houses in this city and the houses of the kings of Judah that are torn down because of the siege ramps and the sword,
5 nínú ìjà pẹ̀lú Kaldea: ‘Wọn yóò kún fún ọ̀pọ̀ òkú ọmọkùnrin tí èmi yóò pa nínú ìbínú àti nínú ìrunú mi. Èmi ó pa ojú mi mọ́ kúrò ní ìlú yìí nítorí gbogbo búburú wọn.
'The Chaldeans are coming to fight and to fill the houses with corpses of people whom I will kill in my wrath and fury, when I hide my face from this city because of all their wickedness.
6 “‘Wò ó, èmi ó mú ọ̀já àti oògùn ìmúláradá dì í; èmi ó wo àwọn ènìyàn mi sàn. Èmi ó sì jẹ́ kí wọn ó jẹ ìgbádùn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ àlàáfíà àti òtítọ́.
But see, I am about to bring healing and a cure, for I will heal them and will bring to them abundance, peace, and faithfulness.
7 Èmi ó mú Juda àti Israẹli kúrò nínú ìgbèkùn, èmi ó sì tún wọn kọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ṣe wà tẹ́lẹ̀.
For I will bring back the fortunes of Judah and Israel; I will build them up as in the beginning.
8 Èmi ó wẹ̀ wọ́n nù kúrò nínú gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí wọ́n ti ṣẹ sí mi. Èmi ó sì dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àìṣedéédéé wọn sí mi jì wọ́n.
Then I will purify them from all the iniquity that they have committed against me. I will pardon all the iniquities that they have done against me, and all the ways that they rebelled against me.
9 Nígbà náà ni ìlú yìí ó fún mi ní òkìkí, ayọ̀, ìyìn àti ọlá níwájú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé; tí wọ́n gbọ́ gbogbo rere tí èmi ṣe fún wọn. Wọn ó sì bẹ̀rù, wọn ó wárìrì fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ oore àti àlàáfíà tí èmi pèsè fún wọn.’
For this city will become for me an object of joy, a song of praise and honor for all the nations of the earth who will hear of all the good things that I am going to do for it. Then they will fear and tremble because of all the good things and the peace that I will give to it.'
10 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, ‘Ẹ̀yin yóò wí nípa ibí yìí pé, “Ó dahoro, láìsí ènìyàn tàbí ẹran.” Síbẹ̀ ní ìlú Juda àti ní òpópónà Jerusalẹmu tí ó dahoro, láìsí ẹni tó gbé ibẹ̀; ìbá à se ènìyàn tàbí ẹran, tí yóò gbọ́ lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí.
Yahweh says this, 'In this place about which you are now saying, “It is desolate, a place with neither man nor beast,” in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate having neither man nor beast, there will be heard again
11 Ariwo ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn, ohùn ìyàwó àti ti ọkọ ìyàwó àti ohùn àwọn tí ó ru ẹbọ ọpẹ́ wọn nílé Olúwa wí pé: “‘“Yin Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, nítorí Olúwa dára, ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ dúró títí láéláé.” Nítorí èmi ó dá ìkólọ ilẹ̀ náà padà sí bí o ṣe wà tẹ́lẹ̀,’ ni Olúwa wí.
the sound of joy and the sound of gladness, the sound of the groom and the sound of the bride, the sound of those who say, while they bring thank offerings to the house of Yahweh, “Give thanks to Yahweh of hosts, for Yahweh is good, and his unfailing love lasts forever!” For I will restore the fortunes of the land to what they were before,' says Yahweh.
12 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, ‘Ní ilẹ̀ yìí tí ó ti dahoro láìsí ọkùnrin àti àwọn ẹran nínú gbogbo ìlú, kò ní sí pápá oko fún àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn láti mú àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn wọn sinmi.
Yahweh of hosts says this: 'In this desolate place, where now there is neither man nor beast—in all its cities there will again be pastures where shepherds can rest their flocks.
13 Ní ìlú òkè wọ̀n-ọn-nì, nínú ìlú àfonífojì, àti nínú ìlú ìhà gúúsù, àti ní ilẹ̀ ti Benjamini, ní ibi wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ó yí Jerusalẹmu ká, àti ní ìlú Juda ni agbo àgùntàn yóò tún máa kọjá ní ọwọ́ ẹni tí ń kà wọ́n,’ ni Olúwa wí.
In the cities in the hill country, the lowlands, and the Negev, in the land of Benjamin and all around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of the ones counting them,' says Yahweh.
14 “‘Àwọn ọjọ́ náà ń bọ̀,’ ni Olúwa wí, ‘tí èmi ó mú ìlérí rere tí mo ṣe fún ilé Israẹli àti ilé Juda ṣẹ.
'Look! Days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when I will do what I have promised for the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
15 “‘Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì àti ní àkókò náà, Èmi ó gbé olódodo dìde láti ẹ̀ka Dafidi. Yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àti ohun tí ó tọ́ ní ilẹ̀ náà.
In those days and in that time I will make a righteous branch to grow for David, and he will carry out justice and righteousness in the land.
16 Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, Juda yóò di ẹni ìgbàlà. Jerusalẹmu yóò sì máa gbé láìséwu. Orúkọ yìí ni a ó máa pè é Olúwa wa olódodo.’
In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will live in security, for this is what she will be called, “Yahweh is our righteousness.”'
17 Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Dafidi kò ní kùnà láti rí ọkùnrin tí yóò jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ ní ilé Israẹli.
For Yahweh says this: 'A man from David's line will never be lacking to sit on the throne of the house of Israel,
18 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àlùfáà tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ Lefi kò ní kùnà láti ní ọkùnrin kan tí ó dúró níwájú mi ní gbogbo ìgbà láti rú ẹbọ sísun; ẹbọ jíjẹ àti láti pèsè ìrúbọ.’”
nor will a man from the Levitical priests be lacking before me to raise burnt offerings, to burn food offerings, and to perform grain offerings all the time.'”
19 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé:
The word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ: ‘Tí ìwọ bá lè dá májẹ̀mú mi ní òru tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ọ̀sán àti òru kò lè sí ní àkókò wọn mọ́.
“Yahweh says this: 'If you can break my covenant with day and night so that there will no longer be day or night at their proper times,
21 Nígbà náà ni májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi àti májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú Lefi tí ó jẹ́ àlùfáà, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ níwájú mi lè bàjẹ́, tí Dafidi kò sì rí ẹni láti jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀.
then you will be able to break my covenant with David my servant, so that he will no longer have a son to sit on his throne, and my covenant with the Levitical priests, my servants.
22 Èmi ó mú àwọn ọmọ lẹ́yìn Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi àti Lefi tí ó jẹ́ oníwàásù níwájú mi di bí ìràwọ̀ ojú ọ̀run, tí kò ṣe é kà àti bí iyẹ̀pẹ̀ ojú Òkun tí kò ṣe é wọ́n.’”
As the hosts of heaven cannot be counted, and as the sand of the seashores cannot be measured, so I will increase the descendants of David my servant and the Levites who serve before me.'”
23 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé:
The word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ kò kíyèsi pé àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ń sọ pé: ‘Olúwa ti kọ àwọn ọba méjèèjì tí ó yàn sílẹ̀’? Nítorí náà, ni wọ́n ti ṣe kẹ́gàn àwọn ènìyàn mi. Wọn kò sì mọ̀ wọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí orílẹ̀-èdè kan.
“Have you not considered what this people has declared when they said, 'The two families that Yahweh chose, now he has rejected them'? In this way they despise my people, saying that they are no longer a nation in their sight.
25 Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Bí èmi kò bá ti da májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú ọ̀sán àti òru àti pẹ̀lú òfin ọ̀run àti ayé tí kò lè yẹ̀.
I, Yahweh, say this, 'If I have not established the covenant of day and night, and if I have not fixed the laws of heaven and earth,
26 Nígbà náà ni èmi ó kọ ọmọ lẹ́yìn Jakọbu àti Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi tí èmi kò sì ní yan ọ̀kan nínú ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ láti jẹ́ alákòóso lórí àwọn ọmọ Abrahamu, Isaaki àti Jakọbu; nítorí èmi ó mú ìkólọ wọn padà; èmi ó sì ṣàánú fún wọn.’”
then I will reject the descendants of Jacob and David my servant, and not bring from them a person to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and show mercy to them.'”
