Jeremiah 50
1 Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa fi sẹ́nu wòlíì Jeremiah láti sọ fún ará ilẹ̀ Babeli:
The word that the Lord spake, concerning Babel, and cocerning the land of the Caldeans by the ministerie of Ieremiah the Prophet.
2 “Ẹ sọ ọ́ láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, ẹ sì kéde, kí ẹ sì gbé àsíá sókè, ẹ kéde rẹ̀ ẹ má sì ṣe bò ó, wí pé, ‘A kó Babeli, ojú tí Beli, a fọ́ Merodaki túútúú, ojú ti àwọn ère rẹ̀, a fọ́ àwọn òrìṣà rẹ̀ túútúú.’
Declare among the nations, and publish it, and set vp a standart, proclaime it and conceale it not: say, Babel is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken downe: her idols are confounded, and their images are burst in pieces.
3 Àwọn ìlú ní apá àríwá yóò sì máa gbóguntì wọ́n. Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn àti ẹranko ni yóò sá kúrò ní ìlú yìí.
For out of the North there commeth vp a nation against her, which shall make her lande waste, and none shall dwel therein: they shall flee, and depart, both man and beast.
4 “Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí àti ní àkókò náà,” ni Olúwa wí, “Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò jùmọ̀ wá, àwọn, àti àwọn ọmọ Juda, wọn yóò lọ pẹ̀lú ẹkún láti ṣàfẹ́rí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn.
In those daies, and at that time, sayeth the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they, and the children of Iudah together, going, and weeping shall they goe, and seeke the Lord their God.
5 Wọn ó máa béèrè ọ̀nà Sioni, ojú wọn yóò sì yí síhà ibẹ̀, wí pé ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí a darapọ̀ mọ́ Olúwa ní májẹ̀mú ayérayé, tí a kì yóò gbàgbé.
They shall aske the way to Zion, with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let vs cleaue to the Lord in a perpetuall couenant that shall not be forgotten.
6 “Àwọn ènìyàn mi ti jẹ́ àgùntàn tí ó sọnù, àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn wọn ti jẹ́ kí wọn ṣìnà, wọ́n ti jẹ́ kí wọn rìn lórí òkè wọ́n ti lọ láti orí òkè ńlá dé òkè kékeré, wọn ti gbàgbé ibùsùn wọn.
My people hath beene as lost sheepe: their shepheards haue caused them to goe astray, and haue turned them away to the mountaines: they haue gone from mountaine to hil, and forgotten their resting place.
7 Gbogbo àwọn tí ó rí wọn, ti pa wọ́n jẹ àwọn ọ̀tá wọ́n sì wí pé, ‘Àwa kò jẹ̀bi nítorí pé wọ́n ti ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa ibùgbé òdodo àti ìrètí àwọn baba wọn.’
Al that found them, haue deuoured them, and their enemies saide, We offende not, because they haue sinned against the Lord, the habitation of iustice, euen the Lord the hope of their fathers.
8 “Jáde kúrò ní Babeli, ẹ fi ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Kaldea sílẹ̀, kí ẹ sì jẹ́ bí òbúkọ níwájú agbo ẹran.
Flee from the middes of Babel, and depart out of the lande of the Caldeans, and be ye as the hee goates before the flocke.
9 Nítorí pé èmi yóò ru, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi yóò gbé sókè sí Babeli àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá láti ilẹ̀ àríwá. Wọn yóò gba àyà wọn lẹ́gbẹ́ rẹ̀; láti àríwá wá, à ó sì mú ọ. Ọfà wọn yóò dàbí ọfà àwọn akọni akíkanjú tí wọn kì í wà lọ́wọ́ òfo.
For loe, I will raise, and cause to come vp against Babel a multitude of mightie natios from the North countrey, and they shall set themselues in aray against her, whereby shee shall be taken: their arrowes shall be as of a strong man, which is expert, for none shall returne in vaine.
10 A ó dààmú Babeli, gbogbo àwọn tó dààmú rẹ yóò sì mú ìfẹ́ wọn ṣẹ,” ni Olúwa wí.
And Caldea shalbe a spoyle: all that spoyle her, shalbe satisfied, sayth the Lord.
11 “Nítorí pé inú yín dùn nítorí pé ẹ̀yìn yọ̀, ẹ̀yìn olè tí ó jí ìní mi, nítorí tí ẹ̀yìn fi ayọ̀ fò bí ẹgbọrọ abo màlúù sí koríko tútù, ẹ sì ń yan bí akọ ẹṣin.
Because yee were glad and reioyced in destroying mine heritage, and because ye are growen fatte, as the calues in the grasse, and neied like strong horses,
12 Ojú yóò ti ìyá rẹ, ẹni tí ó bí ọ yóò sì gba ìtìjú. Òun ni yóò jẹ́ kékeré jù nínú àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, ilẹ̀ aṣálẹ̀ àti aginjù tí kò lọ́ràá.
Therefore your mother shall bee sore confounded, and she that bare you, shall be ashamed: beholde, the vttermost of the nations shalbe a desert, a drie land, and a wildernes.
13 Nítorí ìbínú Olúwa, kì yóò ní olùgbé; ẹnikẹ́ni kò sì ní gbé inú rẹ̀. Gbogbo àwọn tí ó bá kọjá ni Babeli yóò fi ṣe yẹ̀yẹ́ nítorí ọgbẹ́ rẹ̀.
Because of the wrath of the Lord it shall not be inhabited, but shall be wholy desolate: euery one that goeth by Babel, shall be astonished, and hisse at all her plagues.
14 “Dúró sí ààyè rẹ ìwọ Babeli àti gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí ẹ n ta ọfà náà. Ẹ ta ọfà náà sí i, nítorí ó ti ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa.
Put your selues in aray against Babel rounde about: all ye that bende the bowe, shoote at her, spare no arrowes: for shee hath sinned against the Lord.
15 Kígbe mọ́ ọn ní gbogbo ọ̀nà! Ó tẹríba, òpó rẹ̀ sì yẹ̀, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ó ti jẹ́ wí pé èyí ni ìgbẹ̀san Olúwa, gbẹ̀san lára rẹ̀. Ṣe sí i gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe sí àwọn ẹlòmíràn.
Crie against her round about: she hath giuen her hand: her foundations are fallen, and her walles are destroyed: for it is the vengeance of the Lord: take vengeance vpon her: as she hath done, doe vnto her.
16 Ké afúnrúgbìn kúrò ní Babeli, àti ẹni tí ń di dòjé mú ní igà ìkórè! Nítorí idà àwọn aninilára jẹ́ kí oníkálùkù padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀, kí oníkálùkù sì sá padà sí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.
Destroy the sower from Babel, and him that handleth the sieth in the time of haruest: because of the sworde of the oppressor they shall turne euery one to his people, and they shall flee euery one to his owne land.
17 “Israẹli jẹ́ àgùntàn tí ó ṣìnà kiri, kìnnìún sì ti lé e lọ. Níṣàájú ọba Asiria pa á jẹ, àti níkẹyìn yìí Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli fa egungun rẹ̀ ya.”
Israel is like scattered sheepe: the lions haue dispersed them: first the King of Asshur hath deuoured him, and last this Nebuchad-nezzar King, of Babel hath broken his bones.
18 Nítorí náà, èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, “Ǹ ó fi ìyà jẹ ọba Babeli àti ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ti ṣe fìyà jẹ ọba, Asiria.
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Behold, I wil visit ye King of Babel, and his land, as I haue visited the King of Asshur.
19 Ṣùgbọ́n, èmi yóò mú Israẹli padà wá pápá oko tútù rẹ̀ òun yóò sì máa bọ́ ara rẹ̀ lórí Karmeli àti Baṣani, a ó sì tẹ́ ọkàn rẹ̀ lọ́rùn ní òkè Efraimu àti ní Gileadi.
And I will bring Israel againe to his habitation: hee shall feede on Carmel and Bashan, and his soule shall be satisfied vpon the mount Ephraim and Gilead.
20 Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì,” ni Olúwa wí, “À ó wá àìṣedéédéé ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Israẹli, ṣùgbọ́n a ki yóò rí ohun; àti ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Juda ni a ki yóò sì rí mọ kankan nítorí èmi yóò dáríjì àwọn tí ó ṣẹ́kù tí mo dá sí.
In those daies, and at that time, sayeth the Lord, the iniquitie of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none: and the sinnes of Iudah, and they shall not be founde: for I will be mercifull vnto them, whome I reserue.
21 “Kọlu ilẹ̀ Merataimu àti àwọn tí ó ń gbé ní Pekodi. Lépa rẹ pa, kí o sì parun pátápátá,” ni Olúwa wí, “Ṣe gbogbo ohun tí mo pàṣẹ fún ọ.
Goe vp against the lande of the rebelles, euen against it, and against the inhabitantes of Pekod: destroy, and lay it waste after them, saieth the Lord, and doe according to all that I haue commanded thee.
22 Ariwo ogun wà ní ilẹ̀ náà ìrọ́kẹ̀kẹ̀ ìparun ńlá.
A crie of battell is in the land, and of great destruction.
23 Báwo ni ó ṣe fọ́, tí ó sì pín yẹ́lẹyẹ̀lẹ tó, lọ́wọ́ òòlù gbogbo ayé! Báwo ní Babeli ti di ahoro ni àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
Howe is the hammer of the whole world destroied, and broken! howe is Babel become desolate among the nations!
24 Mo dẹ pàkúté sílẹ̀ fún ọ ìwọ Babeli, kí o sì tó mọ ohun tí ó ń ṣẹlẹ̀, o ti kó sínú rẹ̀. A mú ọ nítorí pé o tako Olúwa.
I haue snared thee, and thou art taken, O Babel, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striuen against the Lord.
25 Olúwa ti kó àwọn ohun èlò ìjà rẹ̀ jáde, nítorí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti ṣiṣẹ́ ní ilẹ̀ Babeli.
The Lord hath opened his treasure, and hath brought foorth the weapons of his wrath: for this is the woorke of the Lord God of hostes in the lande of the Caldeans.
26 Ẹ wá sórí rẹ̀ láti òpin gbogbo, sí ilé ìṣúra rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ẹ kó o jọ bí òkìtì ọkà, kí ẹ sì yà á sọ́tọ̀ fún ìparun, ẹ má ṣe fí yòókù sílẹ̀ fún un.
Come against her from the vtmost border: open her store houses: treade on her as on sheaues, and destroy her vtterly: let nothing of her be left.
27 Pa gbogbo àwọn akọ màlúù rẹ, jẹ́ kí a kó wọn lọ ibi tí a ó ti pa wọ́n! Ègbé ní fún wọn! Nítorí ọjọ́ wọn dé, àkókò ìbẹ̀wò wọn.
Destroy all her bullockes: let them goe downe to the slaughter. Wo vnto them, for their day is come, and the time of their visitation.
28 Gbọ́ ohùn àwọn tí ó sálọ, tí ó sì sálà láti Babeli wá, sì sọ ní Sioni, bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa ti gbẹ̀san, ẹ̀san fún tẹmpili rẹ̀.
The voyce of them that flee, and escape out of the lande of Babel to declare in Zion the vengeance of the Lord our God, and the vengeance of his Temple.
29 “Pe ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn, àní gbogbo tafàtafà, sórí Babeli, ẹ dó tí ì yíkákiri, ma jẹ́ ki ẹnikẹ́ni sálà. Sán fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bi gbogbo èyí tí ó ti ṣe, ẹ ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ sí i, nítorí tí ó ti gbéraga sí Olúwa, sí Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli.
Call vp the archers against Babel: al ye that bend the bow, besiege it rounde about: let none thereof escape: recompence her according to her worke, and according to all that she hath done, doe vnto her: for she hath bene proud against the Lord, euen against the holy one of Israel.
30 Nítorí náà, àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ yóò ṣubú ní ìgboro, a ó sì pa àwọn ológun lẹ́nu mọ́,” ní Olúwa wí.
Therefore shall her yong men fall in the streetes, and al her men of warre shalbe destroied in that day, sayeth the Lord.
31 “Wò ó, èmi yóò dojú kọ ọ́ ìwọ agbéraga,” ni Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, “nítorí ọjọ́ rẹ ti dé, àkókò tí èmi ó bẹ̀ ọ wò.
Beholde, I come vnto thee, O proude man, saith the Lord God of hostes: for thy day is come, euen the time that I will visite thee.
32 Onígbèéraga yóò kọsẹ̀, yóò sì ṣubú, kì yóò sì ṣí ẹni tí yóò gbé dìde. Èmi yóò tan iná ní ìlú náà, èyí tí yóò sì jo run.”
And the proude shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him vp: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall deuoure all round about him.
33 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ: “A pọ́n àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli lójú àti àwọn ènìyàn Juda pẹ̀lú. Gbogbo àwọn tí ó kó wọn nígbèkùn dì wọn mú ṣinṣin wọn kò sì jẹ́ kí ó sá àsálà.
Thus saieth the Lord of hosts, The children of Israel, and the children of Iudah were oppressed together: and all that tooke them captiues, held them, and would not let them goe.
34 Síbẹ̀, Olùràpadà wọn, Alágbára, Olúwa Ọlọ́run Alágbára ni orúkọ rẹ̀. Yóò sì gbe ìjà wọn jà, kí ó ba à lè mú wọn wá sinmi ní ilẹ̀ náà; ṣùgbọ́n kò sí ìsinmi fún àwọn tí ó ń gbé Babeli.
But their strong redeemer, whose Name is the Lord of hostes, he shall maintaine their cause, that he may giue rest to the lande, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babel.
35 “Idà lórí àwọn Babeli!” ni Olúwa wí, “lòdì sí àwọn tó ń gbé ní Babeli, àwọn aláṣẹ àti àwọn amòye ọkùnrin.
A sworde is vpon the Caldeans, sayeth the Lord, and vpon the inhabitants of Babel, and vpon her princes, and vpon her wise men.
36 Idà lórí àwọn wòlíì èké wọn yóò di òmùgọ̀! Idà lórí àwọn jagunjagun, wọn yóò sì kún fún ẹ̀rù.
A sworde is vpon the soothsaiers, and they shall dote: a sword is vpon her strong men, and they shalbe afraide.

A sworde is vpon their horses and vpon their charets, and vpon all the multitude that are in the middes of her, and they shall be like women: a sworde is vpon her treasures, and they shall be spoyled.

A drought is vpon her waters, and they shall be dried vp: for it is the lande of grauen images, and they dote vpon their idoles.
39 “Nítorí náà àwọn ẹranko ijù pẹ̀lú ọ̀wàwà ni yóò máa gbé ibẹ̀, abo ògòǹgò yóò sì máa gbé inú rẹ̀, a kì yóò sì gbé inú rẹ̀ mọ́, láéláé, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kì yóò ṣàtìpó nínú rẹ̀ láti ìrandíran.
Therefore the Ziims with the Iims shall dwel there, and the ostriches shall dwel therein: for it shall be no more inhabited, neither shall it be inhabited from generation vnto generation.

As God destroied Sodom and Gomorah with the places thereof neere about, sayeth the Lord: so shall no man dwell theere, neither shall the sonne of man remaine therein.
41 “Wò ó! Ọ̀wọ́ ọmọ-ogun láti ìhà àríwá; orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá àti àwọn ọba púpọ̀ ni à ń gbé dìde láti òpin ilẹ̀ ayé.
Beholde, a people shall come from the North, and a great nation, and many Kings shall be raised vp from the coastes of the earth.

They shall holde the bowe and the buckeler: they are cruell and vnmercifull: their voyce shall roare like the sea, and they shall ride vpon horses, and be put in aray like men to the battell against thee, O daughter of Babel.
43 Ọba Babeli ti gbọ́ ìròyìn nípa wọn, ọwọ́ wọn sì rọ, ìrora mú wọn bí obìnrin tí ó ń rọbí.
The King of Babel hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: sorow came vpon him, euen sorowe as of a woman in trauaile.

Beholde, hee shall come vp like a lyon from the swelling of Iorden vnto the strong habitation: for I will make Israel to rest, and I will make them to haste away from her: and who is a chosen man that I may appoynt against her? for who is like me, and who will appoynt me the time? and who is the shepheard that will stande before me?
45 Nítorí náà, gbọ́ ohun tí Olúwa sọ nípa Babeli, ẹni tí ó gbìmọ̀ lòdì sí Babeli: n ó sì pa agbo ẹran wọn run.
Therefore heare the counsell of the Lord that hee hath deuised against Babel, and his purpose that hee hath conceiued against the lande of the Caldeans: surely the least of the flocke shall drawe them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.
46 Ní ohùn igbe ńlá pé; a kò Babeli, ilẹ̀ ayé yóò mì tìtì, a sì gbọ́ igbe náà láàrín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
At the noyse of the winning of Babel the earth is moued, and the crye is heard among the nations.
