Jeremiah 49
1 Nípa Ammoni. Báyìí ni Olúwa wí, “Israẹli kò ha ní ọmọkùnrin? Israẹli kò ha ní àrólé bí? Nítorí kí ni Malkomu ṣe jogún Gadi? Kí ló dé tí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ ń gbé ìlú rẹ̀?
Concerning the children of Ammon. Thus saith Jehovah: Hath Israel no sons? Hath he not an heir? Why then doth Milcom inherit Gad, And his people dwell in his cities?
2 Ṣùgbọ́n ọjọ́ náà ń bọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí; “nígbà tí èmi yóò mú kí a gbọ́ ìdágìrì ogun ní Rabba tí Ammoni; yóò sì di òkìtì ahoro, gbogbo ìlú tí ó yí i ká ni a ó jó níná. Nígbà náà ni Israẹli yóò lé wọn, àwọn tí ó ti lé e jáde,” ni Olúwa wí.
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, That I will cause a cry of war to be heard against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, And she shall become a ruinous heap, And her daughters shall be burned with fire; And Israel shall take possession of their land, who took possession of his.
3 “Hu, ìwọ Heṣboni, nítorí Ai tí rún! Kígbe ẹ̀yin olùgbé Rabba! Ẹ wọ aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ kí ẹ sì ṣọ̀fọ̀. Ẹ sáré sókè sódò nínú ọgbà, nítorí Malkomu yóò lọ sí ìgbèkùn, pẹ̀lú àwọn àlùfáà àti ìjòyè rẹ̀.
Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste! Cry, ye daughters of Rabbah, Gird yourselves with sackcloth, lament, And run ye to and fro within the fences! For Milcom goeth into captivity, His priests and his princes together.
4 Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń ṣògo nínú àfonífojì rẹ, ṣògo nínú àfonífojì rẹ fún èso? Ẹ̀yin ọmọbìnrin Ammoni aláìṣòótọ́, ẹ gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ọrọ̀ yín, ẹ sì wí pé, ‘Ta ni yóò kò mí lójú?’
Wherefore dost thou glory in the valleys? Thy valley shall flow [[with blood]], O perverse daughter, That gloriest in thy treasures, [[Saying, ]] “Who shall come against me?”
5 Èmi yóò mu ẹ̀rù wá lórí rẹ láti ọ̀dọ̀ gbogbo àwọn tó yí ọ ká,” ni Olúwa, ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
Behold, I will bring a terror upon thee, saith Jehovah of hosts, From all those that are around thee, And ye shall be driven out, every one right forth, And there shall be none to gather up the fugitives.
6 “Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun. Gbogbo yín ni ó lé jáde, kò sì ṣí ẹnìkan tí yóò dá ìkólọ Ammoni padà,” ni Olúwa wí.
But after this will I bring back the captivity of the sons of Ammon, saith Jehovah.
7 Nípa Edomu. Èyí ní ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí: “Ṣe kò ha sí ọgbọ́n mọ́ ni Temani? Ṣé a ti ké ìmọ̀ràn kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ olóyè? Ṣé ọgbọ́n wọn ti bàjẹ́ bí?
Concerning the Edomites. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Is wisdom no more in Teman? Is counsel passed away from the prudent? Is their wisdom vanished?
8 Yípadà kí o sálọ, sá pamọ́ sínú ihò, ìwọ tí ó ń gbé ní Dedani, nítorí èmi yóò mú ibi wá sórí Esau, ní àkókò tí èmi ó bẹ̀ ẹ́ wò.
Flee ye, turn ye back, Dwell in deep places, O ye inhabitants of Dedan! For the destruction of Esau do I bring, The time of his punishment upon him.
9 Tí àwọn tí ń ṣa èso bá tọ̀ ọ́ wá; ǹjẹ́ wọn kò ní fi èso díẹ̀ sílẹ̀? Tí olè bá wá ní òru; ǹjẹ́ wọn kò ní kó gbogbo ohun tí wọ́n bá fẹ́?
If grape-gatherers had come upon thee, Would they not have left some gleanings? If thieves by night, They would have destroyed only till they had enough.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò tu Esau sí ìhòhò, èmi ti fi ibi ìkọ̀kọ̀ rẹ̀ hàn, nítorí kí o máa ba à fi ara rẹ pamọ́. Àwọn ọmọ rẹ, ẹbí rẹ àti àwọn ará ilé rẹ yóò parun. Wọn kò sì ní sí mọ́.
But I will make Esau bare; I will uncover his hiding-places, So that he shall not be able to hide himself. His offspring shall be destroyed, and his brethren, and his neighbors, And he shall be no more.
11 Fi àwọn ọmọ aláìní baba sílẹ̀ èmi yóò dáàbò bo ẹ̀mí wọn. Àwọn opó rẹ gan an lè gbẹ́kẹ̀lé mi.”
Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive, And thy widows, let them trust in me!
12 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí bí ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò bá yẹ kí ó mu ago náà bá mú un, kí ló dé tí ìwọ yóò fi lọ láìjìyà? Ìwọ kò ní lọ láìjìyà; ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ yóò mú un.
For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, they who ought not to have drunk the cup have deeply drunken, And shalt thou go altogether unpunished? Thou shalt not go unpunished; Thou shalt surely drink.
13 Èmi fi ara mi búra ni Olúwa wí, wí pé, “Bosra yóò ba ayé ara rẹ̀ jẹ́. Yóò di ẹni ẹ̀gàn, ẹni èpè àti ẹni ègún, àti gbogbo ìlú rẹ̀ yóò di ìbàjẹ́ títí láé.”
For by myself have I sworn, saith Jehovah, That Bozrah shall become an astonishment, A reproach, a desolation, and a curse; And all her cities shall be perpetual wastes.
14 Ní gbígbọ́, èmi ti gbọ́ ìró kan láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa, a rán ikọ̀ kan sí orílẹ̀-èdè pé, ẹ kó ara yín jọ, ẹ wá sórí rẹ̀, ẹ sì dìde láti jagun.
I have heard a proclamation from Jehovah, And an ambassador hath been sent among the nations, [[Saying, ]] “Assemble yourselves, and come against her, And arise to battle!”
15 “Ní báyìí, èmi yóò sọ ọ́ di kékeré láàrín orílẹ̀-èdè gbogbo; ẹni ẹ̀gàn láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
For, behold, I will make thee small among the nations, Despised among men.
16 Ìpayà tí ìwọ ti fà sínú ìgbéraga ọkàn rẹ sì ti tàn ọ́ jẹ; ìwọ tí ń gbé ní pàlàpálá àpáta, tí o jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ gíga síbẹ̀ o kọ́ ìtẹ́ rẹ ga gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹyẹ idì; láti ibẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti mú ọ sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá,” ni Olúwa wí.
Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, The pride of thy heart, Because thou dwellest in the recesses of the rock, And holdest the height of the hill. Though thou set thy nest on high, like the eagle, From thence will I bring thee down, saith Jehovah.
17 “Edomu yóò di ahoro gbogbo àwọn tí ń kọjá yóò jáyà, wọn ó sì fi rẹ́rìn-ín ẹlẹ́yà nítorí gbogbo ìpalára rẹ.
And Edom shall be an astonishment: Every one that passeth by her shall be astonished, And shall hiss on account of all her plagues.
18 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ṣe gba Sodomu àti Gomorra pẹ̀lú àwọn ìlú tí ó wà ní àyíká rẹ,” ní Olúwa wí. “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, kò sí ẹnikẹ́ni tí yóò gbé níbẹ̀; kò sì ní sí ènìyàn tí yóò tẹ̀dó síbẹ̀ mọ́.
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, And their neighboring cities, saith Jehovah, There shall not a man abide there, Nor a son of man dwell within her.
19 “Bí i kìnnìún ni òun ó gòkè wá láti igbó Jordani sí orí ilẹ̀ ọlọ́ràá, Èmi ó lé Edomu kúrò ní ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ní kíákíá. Ta ni àyànfẹ́ náà tí èmi ó yàn sórí rẹ̀? Ta ló dàbí mi, ta ni ó sì pé mi ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí? Ta ni olùṣọ́-àgùntàn náà tí yóò le dúró níwájú mi?”
Behold, he [[the enemy]] cometh up like a lion from the pride of Jordan against the habitation of the rock; Suddenly will I drive him [[Edom]] thence, And him who is chosen by me will I set over her. For who is like me, Or who will summon me to trial? Or who is the shepherd that will stand up against me?
20 Nítorí náà, ẹ gbọ́ ohun tí Olúwa ní fún Edomu, ohun tí ó ní ní pàtàkì fún àwọn tí ń gbé ní Temani. Àwọn ọ̀dọ́ àgbò ni à ó lé jáde; pápá oko wọn ni yóò run nítorí wọn.
Therefore, hear ye the purpose of Jehovah, Which he hath formed against Edom, And the designs which he meditateth against the inhabitants of Teman! Surely he [[the enemy]] shall drag them forth like feeble sheep; Surely he shall come upon them, And make their pastures desolate.
21 Ilẹ̀ yóò mì tìtì nípa ariwo ìṣubú wọn, a ó gbọ́ igbe wọn ní Òkun pupa.
At the noise of their fall the earth trembleth, Even to the Red Sea is their cry heard.
22 Wò ó! Ẹyẹ idì yóò gòkè fò wálẹ̀, yóò tẹ ìyẹ́ rẹ̀ lórí Bosra. Ní ọjọ́ náà ọkàn àwọn ajagun Edomu yóò dàbí ọkàn obìnrin tí ń rọbí.
Behold, like an eagle, he [[the enemy]] cometh up, And spreadeth his wings over Bozrah; And the hearts of the heroes of Edom, in that day, Shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
23 Nípa Damasku. “Inú Hamati àti Arpadi bàjẹ́ nítorí wọ́n gbọ́ ìròyìn búburú, ìjayà dé bá wọn, wọ́n sì dààmú bí omi Òkun.
Concerning Damascus. Hamath and Arpad are confounded; They faint, because they have heard evil tidings. There is anxiety at the sea; It cannot be at rest.
24 Damasku di aláìlera, ó pẹ̀yìndà láti sálọ, ìwárìrì sì dé bá a; ìbẹ̀rù àti ìrora dìímú, ìrora bí ti obìnrin tí ó wà ní ipò ìrọbí.
Damascus is faint-hearted; She turneth herself to flee; Trembling hath seized on her; Anguish and pangs have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
25 Kí ló dé tí ìlú olókìkí di ohun ìkọ̀sílẹ̀; ìlú tí mo dunnú sí.
“Why is not the praised city left, The city of my joy?”
26 Lóòtítọ́, àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin rẹ yóò ṣubú lójú pópó, gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ yóò pa ẹnu mọ́ ní ọjọ́ náà,” ní Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
Yea, her young men shall fall in her streets, And all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, Saith Jehovah of hosts.
27 “Èmi yóò fi iná sí odi Damasku, yóò sì jó gbọ̀ngàn Beni-Hadadi run.”
Yea, I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, Which shall consume the palaces of Benhadad.
28 Nípa ìlú Kedari àti ìjọba Hasori èyí ti Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli dojú ìjà kọ, èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ, “Dìde kí o sì dojú ìjà kọ ìlú Kedari, kí o sì pa àwọn ènìyàn ìlà-oòrùn run.
Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, smote. Thus saith Jehovah: Arise ye, go up against Kedar, And spoil the sons of the East!
29 Àgọ́ wọn àti agbo àgùntàn wọn ni wọn ó kó lọ; àgọ́ wọn yóò di ìṣínípò padà pẹ̀lú gbogbo ẹrù àti ìbákasẹ wọn. Àwọn ènìyàn yóò ké sórí wọ́n pé, ‘Ẹ̀rù yí káàkiri!’
Their tents and their flocks shall they take away; They shall take to themselves their curtains, and all their furniture, and their camels, And men shall cry to them, “Terror is on every side.”
30 “Sálọ kíákíá! Fi ara pamọ́ sí ibi jíjìn, ẹ̀yin olùgbé Hasori,” ni Olúwa wí. “Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli ti dojú ìjà kọ ọ́.
Flee, get you far off, dwell in deep places, O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith Jehovah. For Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, meditates a design against you, And has formed a purpose against you.
31 “Dìde kí o sì dojú ìjà kọ orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó wà nínú ìrọ̀rùn, èyí tí ó gbé ní àìléwu,” ní Olúwa wí. “Orílẹ̀-èdè tí kò ní odi tàbí irin, àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ ń dágbé.
Arise ye, go up against a nation at ease, That dwelleth securely, saith Jehovah; Which hath neither gates nor bars; Which dwelleth alone.
32 Àwọn ìbákasẹ á di ẹrù àti àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn, wọ́n á di ìkógun. Èmi yóò tú àwọn tí ó wà ní òkèèrè sí inú afẹ́fẹ́. Èmi yóò sì mú ibi wá sí àyíká gbogbo,” báyìí ní Olúwa wí.
And their camels shall be a booty, And the multitude of their cattle a spoil; And I will scatter to all the winds them that shave the cheeks, And from every side will I bring their calamity, saith Jehovah.
33 “Hasori yóò di ibi ìdọdẹ àwọn akátá, ibi ìkọ̀sílẹ̀ ayérayé, kò sí ẹni tí yóò gbé ní ibẹ̀.”
And Hazor shall be a dwelling for jackals, A desolation forever. There shall not a man abide there, Nor any son of man dwell therein.
34 Èyí ní ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa èyí tí ó tọ Jeremiah wòlíì wá nípa Elamu ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ìjọba Sedekiah ọba Juda.
The word of Jehovah which came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, saying: —
35 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ: “Wò ó, èmi yóò fọ́ ìtẹ̀gùn Elamu, ẹni tí wọ́n sinmi lé nípa agbára.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, I break the bow of Elam, The chief part of their strength.
36 Èmi yóò mú kí afẹ́fẹ́ orígun mẹ́rẹ̀ẹ̀rin àgbáyé lòdì sí Elamu. Èmi yóò tú wọn ká sí ìpín afẹ́fẹ́ mẹ́rin àti pé, kò sí orílẹ̀-èdè tí ilẹ̀ àjèjì Elamu kò ní lọ.
And I will bring against Elam The four winds from the four extremities of the heavens, And I will scatter them to all these winds, And there shall be no nation To which the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
37 Èmi yóò kẹ́gàn Elamu níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá wọn, àti níwájú àwọn tí wọ́n ń wá ẹ̀mí wọn, Èmi yóò mú ibi wá sí orí wọn, àní, ìbínú gbígbóná mi,” bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa wí. “Èmi yóò lé wọn pẹ̀lú idà, di ìgbà tí èmi yóò rẹ́yìn wọn.
For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, And before them that seek their life. And I will bring evil upon them, The fierceness of my anger, saith Jehovah. And I will send after them the sword, Until I have consumed them.
38 Èmi yóò sì gbé ìtẹ́ mi kalẹ̀ ní Elamu, èmí yóò sì pa ọba wọn àti ìjòyè wọn run,” báyìí ni Olúwa wí.
And I will set up my throne in Elam, And I will destroy from thence king and princes, saith Jehovah.
39 “Síbẹ̀, èmi yóò dá ìkólọ Elamu padà láìpẹ́ ọjọ́,” báyìí ni Olúwa wí.
But it shall come to pass in future times, That I will bring back the captivity of Elam, saith Jehovah.
