Jeremiah 33
1 Moreover the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still locked up in the court of the guard, saying,
Esi Yeremia gale ga me ko le dzɔlawo ƒe xɔxɔnu la, Yehowa ƒe nya va nɛ zi evelia be,
2 “The LORD who does it, the LORD who forms it to establish it—the LORD is his name, says:
“Ale Yehowa, ame si wɔ anyigba, Yehowa si wɔe hetsɔe ɖo te, eye eŋkɔe nye Yehowa la gblɔe nye esi:
3 ‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you do not know.’
‘Yɔm, eye matɔ na wò, magblɔ nu gã siwo mènya o, eye wo me dzodzro hã meli o la na wò!’
4 For the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defense against the mounds and against the sword:
Elabena ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔ ɖe aƒe siwo le du sia me kple Yuda fiawo ƒe fiasã siwo wogbã ƒu anyi be woalɔ awɔ akpoxɔnu ɖe futɔwo ƒe aʋawɔnuwo kple yi ŋuti,
5 ‘While men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city,
le aʋa si wowɔ kple Babiloniatɔwo la me. ‘Woayɔ fũu kple ŋutsu siwo mewu le nye dziku kple dɔmedzoe me la ƒe kukuawo. Maɣla nye mo ɖe du sia le eƒe nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔwɔwo katã ta.
6 behold, I will bring it health and healing, and I will cure them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
“‘Gake kpɔ ɖa mayɔ dɔ wo eye woahaya. Mayɔ dɔ nye dukɔ eye mana ŋutifafa kple dedinɔnɔ fũu.
7 I will restore the fortunes of Judah and Israel, and will build them as at the first.
Makplɔ Yuda kple Israel agbɔe tso aboyo me, eye magaɖo wo te abe ale si wonɔ tsã ene.
8 I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me and by which they have transgressed against me.
Maklɔ nu vɔ̃ siwo katã wowɔ ɖe ŋutinye la ɖa le wo ŋu, eye matsɔ woƒe aglãdzedze ƒe nu vɔ̃ siwo katã wowɔ ɖe ŋunye la ake wo.
9 This city will be to me for a name of joy, for praise, and for glory, before all the nations of the earth, which will hear all the good that I do to them, and will fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I provide to it.’”
Ekema du sia atsɔ ŋkɔ gã, dzidzɔ, kafukafu kple bubu vɛ nam le anyigbadzidukɔ siwo katã se nu nyui siwo mewɔ na wo la dome; ŋɔdzi alé wo eye woadzo nyanyanya le nunyoname gbogbo kple ŋutifafa si mena wo la ta.’
10 The LORD says: “Yet again there will be heard in this place, about which you say, ‘It is waste, without man and without animal, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without animal,’
“Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ègblɔ tso teƒe sia ŋuti be, ezu aƒedo si me amewo alo lãwo mele o.’ Gake le Yuda duwo kple Yerusalem kpɔdome siwo ɖi gbɔlo, eye amegbetɔwo alo lãwo gɔ hã megale o la, woagase
11 the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Armies, for the LORD is good, for his loving kindness endures forever;’ who bring thanksgiving into the LORD’s house. For I will cause the captivity of the land to be reversed as at the first,” says the LORD.
dzidzɔ kple aseyetsotso, ŋugbetɔ kple ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ ƒe gbe kple ame siwo tsɔ akpedavɔsa va Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ mee, woanɔ gbɔgblɔm be, “Mida akpe na Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, elabena Yehowa ƒe dɔ me nyo eye eƒe lɔlɔ̃ li tegbee. Elabena magaɖo anyigba la ƒe nunyonamewo te abe tsã ene.” Yehowae gblɔe.
12 The LORD of Armies says: “Yet again there will be in this place, which is waste, without man and without animal, and in all its cities, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
“Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Teƒe sia kple eƒe du siwo katã zu aƒedo, eye amewo alo lãwo gɔ̃ hã menɔ wo me o la aganye lãnyiƒe damawo na alẽkplɔlawo be woakplɔ woƒe alẽhawo ayii.
13 In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of him who counts them,” says the LORD.
Le togbɛnyigba ƒe duwo me kple du siwo le ɣetoɖoƒe ƒe togbɛmɔwo to, kpe ɖe du siwo le gbegbe le Benyaminyigba dzi, heyi ɖe kɔƒe siwo ƒo xlã Yerusalem kple Yuda ƒe duwo la, alẽhawo agato wo xlẽla ƒe asi te.’ Yehowae gblɔe.
14 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
“Yehowa be, ‘Ŋkekewo li gbɔna esi mawɔ ɖe amenuveve ƒe ŋugbe si medo na Israel kple Yuda ƒe aƒewo dzi.’
15 “In those days and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David. He will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
“Le ŋkeke mawo kple ɣeyiɣi mawo me la, mana Atilɔ dzɔdzɔe aɖe nado tso David ƒe ƒome me, awɔ nu si le eteƒe, eye wòle dzɔdzɔe la le anyigba dzi.
16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell safely. This is the name by which she will be called: The LORD our righteousness.”
Le ŋkeke mawo me la, woaɖe Yuda, eye Yerusalem anɔ anyi le dedinɔnɔ me. Esiae nye ŋkɔ si woayɔ nɛ, ‘Yehowa Míaƒe Dzɔdzɔenyenye?’
17 For the LORD says: “David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel.
Elabena ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘David magbe amekpɔkpɔ ne wòanɔ anyi ɖe Israel ƒe aƒe la ƒe fiazikpui dzi loo,
18 The Levitical priests will not lack a man before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.”
alo nunɔla siwo nye Leviviwo la nagbe ame si anɔ nye ŋkume ɖaa anɔ numevɔsa, nuɖuvɔsa kple vɔsa bubuwo wɔm nam la kpɔkpɔ o.’”
19 The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
Yehowa ƒe nya va na Yeremia be,
20 “The LORD says: ‘If you can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, so that there will not be day and night in their time,
“Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: ‘Ne miate ŋu atu nye nu si mebla kple ŋkeke kple zã, ale be ŋkeke kple zã magava ɖe woƒe ɖoɖo nu o la,
21 then my covenant could also be broken with David my servant, that he will not have a son to reign on his throne; and with the Levitical priests, my ministers.
ekema woate ŋu atu nye nu si mebla kple nye dɔla David kple esi mebla kple Leviviwo, ame siwo nye nunɔlawo eye wowɔa subɔsubɔdɔ le ŋkunye me. David hã magakpɔ dzidzimevi si aɖu fia le eƒe fiazikpui dzi o.
22 As the army of the sky cannot be counted, and the sand of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant and the Levites who minister to me.’”
Mawɔ David ƒe dzidzimeviwo woanye nye dɔlawo eye mana Levi vi siwo wɔa subɔsubɔdɔ le ŋkunye me la nasɔ gbɔ abe ɣletiviwo le dziŋgɔli ŋu kple ke le ƒuta ene.’”
23 The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
Yehowa ƒe nya va na Yeremia be,
24 “Do not consider what this people has spoken, saying, ‘Has the LORD cast off the two families which he chose?’ Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.”
“Mède dzesii be ame siawo le gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Yehowa gbe fiaɖuƒe eve siwo wòtia’ la oa? Ale woɖe alɔme le dukɔ la ŋu eye womegabua wo abe dukɔ ene o.
25 The LORD says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Nenye ɖe nyemebla nu kple ŋkeke kple zã o eye mede se na dziƒo kple anyigba o la,
26 then I will also cast away the offspring of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his offspring to be rulers over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to be reversed and will have mercy on them.”
ekema magbe Yakob ƒe dzidzimeviwo kple nye dɔla, David eye nyematia via ŋutsuwo dometɔ aɖeke be wòaɖu fia ɖe Abraham, Isak kple Yakob ƒe dzidzimeviwo dzi o, elabena matrɔ woƒe dzɔgbenyui na wo, eye makpɔ nublanui na wo.”
