< Jeremiah 49 >

1 Of the children of Ammon. The LORD says: “Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Malcam possess Gad, and his people dwell in its cities?
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?
2 Therefore behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and it will become a desolate heap, and her daughters will be burned with fire; then Israel will possess those who possessed him,” says the LORD.
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.
3 “Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste! Cry, you daughters of Rabbah! Clothe yourself in sackcloth. Lament, and run back and forth among the fences; for Malcam will go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
“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.
4 Why do you boast in the valleys, your flowing valley, backsliding daughter? You trusted in her treasures, saying, ‘Who will come to me?’
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?’
5 Behold, I will bring a terror on you,” says the Lord, GOD of Armies, “from all who are around you. All of you will be driven completely out, and there will be no one to gather together the fugitives.
Èmi yóò mu ẹ̀rù wá lórí rẹ láti ọ̀dọ̀ gbogbo àwọn tó yí ọ ká,” ni Olúwa, ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí.
6 “But afterward I will reverse the captivity of the children of Ammon,” says the LORD.
“Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun. Gbogbo yín ni ó lé jáde, kò sì ṣí ẹnìkan tí yóò dá ìkólọ Ammoni padà,” ni Olúwa wí.
7 Of Edom, the LORD of Armies says: “Is wisdom no more in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom vanished?
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?
8 Flee! Turn back! Dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him when I visit him.
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.
9 If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves came by night, would not they steal until they had enough?
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?
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he will not be able to hide himself. His offspring is destroyed, with his brothers and his neighbors; and he is no more.
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.
11 Leave your fatherless children. I will preserve them alive. Let your widows trust in me.”
Fi àwọn ọmọ aláìní baba sílẹ̀ èmi yóò dáàbò bo ẹ̀mí wọn. Àwọn opó rẹ gan an lè gbẹ́kẹ̀lé mi.”
12 For the LORD says: “Behold, they to whom it did not pertain to drink of the cup will certainly drink; and are you he who will altogether go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, but you will surely drink.
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.
13 For I have sworn by myself,” says the LORD, “that Bozrah will become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse. All its cities will be perpetual wastes.”
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.”
14 I have heard news from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, “Gather yourselves together! Come against her! Rise up to the battle!”
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.
15 “For, behold, I have made you small among the nations, and despised among men.
“Ní báyìí, èmi yóò sọ ọ́ di kékeré láàrín orílẹ̀-èdè gbogbo; ẹni ẹ̀gàn láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
16 As for your terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill, though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there,” says the LORD.
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.
17 “Edom will become an astonishment. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished, and will hiss at all its plagues.
“Edomu yóò di ahoro gbogbo àwọn tí ń kọjá yóò jáyà, wọn ó sì fi rẹ́rìn-ín ẹlẹ́yà nítorí gbogbo ìpalára rẹ.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and its neighbor cities,” says the LORD, “no man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.
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.
19 “Behold, he will come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will suddenly make them run away from it, and whoever is chosen, I will appoint him over it. For who is like me? Who will appoint me a time? Who is the shepherd who will stand before me?”
“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?”
20 Therefore hear the counsel of the LORD, that he has taken against Edom, and his purposes that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they will drag them away, the little ones of the flock. Surely he will make their habitation desolate over them.
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.
21 The earth trembles at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea.
Ilẹ̀ yóò mì tìtì nípa ariwo ìṣubú wọn, a ó gbọ́ igbe wọn ní Òkun pupa.
22 Behold, he will come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah. The heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
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.
23 Of Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad are confounded, for they have heard evil news. They have melted away. There is sorrow on the sea. It cannot be quiet.
Nípa Damasku. “Inú Hamati àti Arpadi bàjẹ́ nítorí wọ́n gbọ́ ìròyìn búburú, ìjayà dé bá wọn, wọ́n sì dààmú bí omi Òkun.
24 Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized her. Anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
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.
25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
Kí ló dé tí ìlú olókìkí di ohun ìkọ̀sílẹ̀; ìlú tí mo dunnú sí.
26 Therefore her young men will fall in her streets, and all the men of war will be brought to silence in that day,” says the LORD of Armies.
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.
27 “I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.”
“Èmi yóò fi iná sí odi Damasku, yóò sì jó gbọ̀ngàn Beni-Hadadi run.”
28 Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck, The LORD says: “Arise, go up to Kedar, and destroy the children of the east.
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.
29 They will take their tents and their flocks. they will carry away for themselves their curtains, all their vessels, and their camels; and they will cry to them, ‘Terror on every side!’
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!’
30 Flee! Wander far off! Dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor,” says the LORD; “for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, and has conceived a purpose against you.
“Sálọ kíákíá! Fi ara pamọ́ sí ibi jíjìn, ẹ̀yin olùgbé Hasori,” ni Olúwa wí. “Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli ti dojú ìjà kọ ọ́.
31 Arise! Go up to a nation that is at ease, that dwells without care,” says the LORD; “that has neither gates nor bars, that dwells alone.
“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.
32 Their camels will be a booty, and the multitude of their livestock a plunder. I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them,” says the LORD.
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.
33 Hazor will be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever. No man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.”
“Hasori yóò di ibi ìdọdẹ àwọn akátá, ibi ìkọ̀sílẹ̀ ayérayé, kò sí ẹni tí yóò gbé ní ibẹ̀.”
34 The LORD’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
Èyí ní ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa èyí tí ó tọ Jeremiah wòlíì wá nípa Elamu ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ìjọba Sedekiah ọba Juda.
35 “The LORD of Armies says: ‘Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun sọ: “Wò ó, èmi yóò fọ́ ìtẹ̀gùn Elamu, ẹni tí wọ́n sinmi lé nípa agbára.
36 I will bring on Elam the four winds from the four quarters of the sky, and will scatter them toward all those winds. There will be no nation where the outcasts of Elam will not come.
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.
37 I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those who seek their life. I will bring evil on them, even my fierce anger,’ says the LORD; ‘and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.
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.
38 I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there king and princes,’ says the LORD.
Èmi yóò sì gbé ìtẹ́ mi kalẹ̀ ní Elamu, èmí yóò sì pa ọba wọn àti ìjòyè wọn run,” báyìí ni Olúwa wí.
39 ‘But it will happen in the latter days that I will reverse the captivity of Elam,’ says the LORD.”
“Síbẹ̀, èmi yóò dá ìkólọ Elamu padà láìpẹ́ ọjọ́,” báyìí ni Olúwa wí.
