Jeremiah 50
1 The word that the Lord hath spoken against Babylon, and against the land of the Chaldeans in the hand of Jeremias the prophet.
Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa fi sẹ́nu wòlíì Jeremiah láti sọ fún ará ilẹ̀ Babeli:
2 Declare ye among the nations, and publish it, lift up a standard: proclaim, and conceal it not: say: Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is overthrown, their graven things are confounded, their idols are overthrown.
“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.’
3 For a nation is come up against her out of the north, which shall make her land desolate: and there shall be none to dwell therein, from man even to beast: yea they are removed, and gone away.
Àwọn ìlú ní apá àríwá yóò sì máa gbóguntì wọ́n. Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn àti ẹranko ni yóò sá kúrò ní ìlú yìí.
4 In those days, and at that time, saith the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Juda together: going and weeping they shall make haste, and shall seek the Lord their God.
“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.
5 They shall ask the way to Sion, their faces are hitherward. They shall come, and shall be joined to the Lord by an everlasting covenant, which shall never be forgotten.
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.
6 My people have been a lost flock, their shepherds have caused them to go astray, and have made them wander in the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their resting place.
“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.
7 All that found them, have devoured them: and their enemies said: We have not sinned in so doing: because they have sinned against the Lord the beauty of justice, and against the Lord the hope of their fathers.
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.’
8 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans: and be ye as kids at the head of the flock.
“Jáde kúrò ní Babeli, ẹ fi ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Kaldea sílẹ̀, kí ẹ sì jẹ́ bí òbúkọ níwájú agbo ẹran.
9 For behold I raise up, and will bring against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the land of the north: and they shall be prepared against her, and from thence she shall be taken: their arrows, like those of a mighty man, a destroyer, shall not return in vain.
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.
10 And Chaldea shall be made a prey: all that waste her shall be filled, saith the Lord.
A ó dààmú Babeli, gbogbo àwọn tó dààmú rẹ yóò sì mú ìfẹ́ wọn ṣẹ,” ni Olúwa wí.
11 Because you rejoice, and speak great things, pillaging my inheritance: because you are spread abroad as calves upon the grass, and have bellowed as bulls.
“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.
12 Your mother is confounded exceedingly, and she that bore you is made even with the dust: behold she shall be the last among the nations, a wilderness unpassable, and dry.
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.
13 Because of the wrath of the Lord it shall not be inhabited, but shall be wholly desolate: every one that shall pass by Babylon, shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
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.
14 Prepare yourselves against Babylon round about, all you that bend the bow: fight against her, spare not arrows: because she hath sinned against the Lord.
“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.
15 Shout against her, she hath every where given her hand, her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down, for it is the vengeance of the Lord. Take vengeance upon her: as she hath done, so do to her.
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.
16 Destroy the sower out of Babylon, and him that holdeth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the sword of the dove every man shall return to his people, and every one shall flee to his own land.
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.
17 Israel is a scattered flock, the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria devoured him: and last this Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon hath broken his bones.
“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.”
18 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will visit the king of Babylon and his land, as I have visited the king of Assyria.
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.
19 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation: and he shall feed on Carmel, and Bason, and his soul shall be satisfied in mount Ephraim, and Galaad.
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.
20 In those days, and at that time, saith the Lord, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none: and the sin of Juda, and there shall none be found: for I will be merciful to them, whom I shall leave.
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.
21 Go up against the land of the rulers, and punish the inhabitants thereof, waste, and destroy all behind them, saith the Lord: and do according to all that I have commanded thee.
“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.
22 A noise of war in the land, and a great destruction.
Ariwo ogun wà ní ilẹ̀ náà ìrọ́kẹ̀kẹ̀ ìparun ńlá.
23 How is the hammer of the whole earth broken, and destroyed! how is Babylon turned into a desert among the nations!
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.
24 I have caused thee to fall into a snare, and thou art taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware of it: thou art found and caught, because thou hast provoked the Lord.
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.
25 The Lord hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his wrath: for the Lord the God of hosts hath a work to be done in the land of the Chaldeans.
Olúwa ti kó àwọn ohun èlò ìjà rẹ̀ jáde, nítorí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti ṣiṣẹ́ ní ilẹ̀ Babeli.
26 Come ye against her from the uttermost borders: open that they may go forth that shall tread her down: take the stones out of the way, and make heaps, and destroy her: and let nothing of her be left.
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.
27 Destroy all her valiant men, let them go down to the slaughter: woe to them, for their day is come, the time of their visitation.
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.
28 The voice of them that flee, and of them that have escaped out of the land of Babylon: to declare in Sion the revenge of the Lord our God, the revenge of his temple.
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.
29 Declare to many against Babylon, to all that bend the bow: stand together against her round about, and let nose escape; pay her according to her work: according to all that she hath done, do ye to her: for she hath lifted up herself against the Lord, against the Holy One of Israel.
“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.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in her streets: and all her men of war shall hold their peace in that day, saith the Lord.
Nítorí náà, àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ yóò ṣubú ní ìgboro, a ó sì pa àwọn ológun lẹ́nu mọ́,” ní Olúwa wí.
31 Behold I come against thee, O proud one, saith the Lord the God of hosts: for thy day is come, the time of thy visitation.
“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.
32 And the proud one shall fall, he shall fall down, and there shall be none to lift him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.
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.”
33 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: The children of Israel, and the children of Juda are oppressed together: all that have taken them captives, hold them fast, they will not let them go.
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.
34 Their redeemer is strong, the Lord of hosts is his name: he will defend their cause in judgment, to terrify the land, and to disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
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.
35 A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the Lord, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men.
“Idà lórí àwọn Babeli!” ni Olúwa wí, “lòdì sí àwọn tó ń gbé ní Babeli, àwọn aláṣẹ àti àwọn amòye ọkùnrin.
36 A sword upon her diviners, and they shall be foolish: a sword upon her valiant ones, and they shall be dismayed.
Idà lórí àwọn wòlíì èké wọn yóò di òmùgọ̀! Idà lórí àwọn jagunjagun, wọn yóò sì kún fún ẹ̀rù.
37 A sword upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the people that are in the midst of her: and they shall become as women: a sword upon her treasures, and they shall be made a spoil.

38 A drought upon her waters, and they shall be dried up: because it is a land of idols, and they glory in monstrous things.

39 Therefore shall dragons dwell there with the fig fauns: and ostriches shall dwell therein, and it shall be no more inhabited for ever, neither shall it be built up from generation to generation.
“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.
40 As the Lord overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha, and their neighbour cities, saith the Lord: no man shall dwell there, neither shall the son of man inhabit it.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti gba ìjọba Sodomu àti Gomorra pẹ̀lú àwọn ìlú agbègbè wọn,” ni Olúwa wí, “torí náà kò sí ẹnikẹ́ni tí yóò gbé ibẹ̀; ènìyàn ki yóò gbé nínú rè.
41 Behold a people cometh from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall rise from the ends of the earth.
“Wò ó! Ọ̀wọ́ ọmọ-ogun láti ìhà àríwá; orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá àti àwọn ọba púpọ̀ ni à ń gbé dìde láti òpin ilẹ̀ ayé.
42 They shall take the bow and the shield: they are cruel and unmerciful: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses: like a man prepared for battle against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
Wọ́n sì di ìhámọ́ra ọ̀kọ̀ àti ọrun, wọ́n burú wọn kò sì ní àánú. Wọ́n n ké bí i rírú omi bí wọ́n ti ṣe ń gun ẹṣin wọn lọ. Wọ́n wá bí àkójọpọ̀ ogun láti kọlù ọ́, ìwọ ọmọbìnrin Babeli.
43 The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands are grown feeble: anguish hath taken hold of him, pangs as a, woman in labour.
Ọba Babeli ti gbọ́ ìròyìn nípa wọn, ọwọ́ wọn sì rọ, ìrora mú wọn bí obìnrin tí ó ń rọbí.
44 Behold he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of the Jordan to the strong and beautiful: for I will make him run suddenly upon her: and who shall be the chosen one whom I may appoint over her? for who is like to me? and who shall bear up against me? and who is that shepherd that can withstand my countenance?
Bí i kìnnìún ni òun ó gòkè wá láti igbó Jordani sí orí ilẹ̀ ọlọ́ràá, Èmi ó lé Babeli 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?”
45 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the Lord, which he hath taken against Babylon: and his thoughts which he hath thought against the land of the Chaldeans: surely the little ones of the flocks shall pull them down, of a truth their habitation shall be destroyed with them.
Nítorí náà, gbọ́ ohun tí Olúwa sọ nípa Babeli, ẹni tí ó gbìmọ̀ lòdì sí Babeli: n ó sì pa agbo ẹran wọn run.
46 At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard amongst the nations.
