Jeremiah 43
1 Nígbà tí Jeremiah parí sísọ ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rán an sí wọn tan.
When Jeremiah had finished telling all the people all the words of the LORD their God—everything that the LORD had sent him to say—
2 Asariah ọmọ Hoṣaiah àti Johanani ọmọ Karea, àti gbogbo àwọn agbéraga ọkùnrin sọ fún Jeremiah pé, “Ìwọ ń pa irọ́! Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa kò rán ọ láti sọ pé, ‘Ẹ má lọ sí Ejibiti láti ṣàtìpó níbẹ̀.’
Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah, “You are lying! The LORD our God has not sent you to say, ‘You must not go to Egypt to reside there.’
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Baruku, ọmọ Neriah, ni ó fi ọ̀rọ̀ sí ọ lẹ́nu sí wa, láti fà wá lé àwọn ará Babeli lọ́wọ́, láti pa wá àti láti kó wa ní ìgbèkùn lọ sí Babeli.”
Rather, Baruch son of Neriah is inciting you against us to deliver us into the hands of the Chaldeans, so that they may put us to death or exile us to Babylon!”
4 Nítorí náà, Johanani ti Karea àti gbogbo àwọn olórí ogun, àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tàpá sí àṣẹ Olúwa nípa dídúró sí Juda.
So Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces disobeyed the command of the LORD to stay in the land of Judah.
5 Dípò bẹ́ẹ̀, Johanani ọmọ Karea àti gbogbo àwọn olórí ogun sì ko àwọn àjẹkù Juda tí wọ́n wá láti gbé ilẹ̀ Juda láti orílẹ̀-èdè gbogbo tí wọ́n ti tú wọn ká.
Instead, Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces took the whole remnant of Judah, those who had returned to the land of Judah from all the nations to which they had been scattered,
6 Wọ́n tún kó àwọn ọkùnrin, àwọn obìnrin àti àwọn ọmọdé, àti àwọn ọmọ ọba tí ó jẹ́ obìnrin èyí tí Nebusaradani balógun ẹ̀ṣọ́ ti fi sílẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Gedaliah ọmọ Ahikamu, ọmọ Ṣafani, àti Jeremiah wòlíì náà àti Baruku ọmọ Neriah.
the men, the women, the children, the king’s daughters, and everyone whom Nebuzaradan captain of the guard had allowed to remain with Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, as well as Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch son of Neriah.
7 Nítorí náà, wọn wọ Ejibiti pẹ̀lú àìgbọ́ràn sí àṣẹ Olúwa, wọ́n sì lọ títí dé Tafanesi.
So they entered the land of Egypt because they did not obey the voice of the LORD, and they went as far as Tahpanhes.
8 Ní Tafanesi ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá:
Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah at Tahpanhes:
9 “Nígbà tí àwọn Júù ń wòye mú àwọn òkúta pẹ̀lú rẹ, kí o sì rì wọ́n mọ́ inú amọ̀ tí ó wà nínú bíríkì tí ó wà níbi pèpéle ẹnu-ọ̀nà ààfin Farao ní Tafanesi.
“In the sight of the Jews, pick up some large stones and bury them in the clay of the brick pavement at the entrance to Pharaoh’s palace at Tahpanhes.
10 Báyìí kí o sì sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí. Èmi yóò ránṣẹ́ sí ìránṣẹ́ mi Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli, Èmi yóò gbé ìjọba rẹ̀ ka orí àwọn òkúta; èyí tí mo ti rì sí ibí yìí, yóò tan ìjọba rẹ̀ jù wọ́n lọ.
Then tell them that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I will send for My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and I will set his throne over these stones that I have embedded, and he will spread his royal pavilion over them.
11 Yóò gbé ogun sí Ejibiti; yóò mú ikú bá àwọn tí ó yan ikú; ìgbèkùn fún àwọn tí ó ti yan ìgbèkùn, àti idà fún àwọn tí ó yan idà.
He will come and strike down the land of Egypt, bringing death to those destined for death, captivity to those destined for captivity, and the sword to those destined for the sword.
12 Yóò dá, iná sun tẹmpili àwọn òrìṣà Ejibiti, yóò sun tẹmpili àwọn òrìṣà Ejibiti, yóò sì mú wọn lọ ìgbèkùn. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, yóò ró aṣọ rẹ̀ mọ́ra, bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni yóò ró Ejibiti òun yóò sì lọ kúrò níbẹ̀ ní àlàáfíà.
I will kindle a fire in the temples of the gods of Egypt, and Nebuchadnezzar will burn those temples and take their gods as captives. So he will wrap himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd wraps himself in his garment, and he will depart from there unscathed.
13 Ní tẹmpili ni yóò ti fọ́ ère ilé oòrùn tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti túútúú, yóò sì sun àwọn tẹmpili àwọn òrìṣà Ejibiti.’”
He will demolish the sacred pillars of the temple of the sun in the land of Egypt, and he will burn down the temples of the gods of Egypt.’”
