< Jeremias 33 >

1 IN THE BEGINNING OF THE REIGN OF KING JOAKIM SON OF JOSIAS THERE CAME THIS WORD FROM THE LORD.
Nígbà tí Jeremiah wà nínú àgbàlá túbú, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ̀ ọ́ wá lẹ́ẹ̀kejì:
2 Thus said the Lord; Stand in the court of the Lord's house, and you shall declare to all the Jews, and to all that come to worship in the house of the Lord, all the words which I commanded you to speak to them; abate not one word.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ, ẹni tí ó dá ayé, Olúwa tí ó mọ ayé tí ó sì fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀, Olúwa ni orúkọ rẹ̀:
3 Peradventure they will hear, and turn every one from his evil way: then I will cease from the evils which I purpose to do to them, because of their evil practices.
‘Pè mí, èmi ó sì dá ọ lóhùn, èmi ó sì sọ ohun alágbára ńlá àti ọ̀pọ̀ ohun tí kò ṣe é wádìí tí ìwọ kò mọ̀ fún ọ.’
4 And you shall say, Thus said the Lord; If you will not listen to me, to walk in my statutes which I set before you,
Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn Israẹli sọ nípa àwọn ilẹ̀ ìlú yìí àti ààfin àwọn ọba Juda tí ó ti wó lulẹ̀ nítorí àwọn ìdọ̀tí àti idà
5 to listen to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send to you early in the morning; yes, I sent them, but you listened not to me;
nínú ìjà pẹ̀lú Kaldea: ‘Wọn yóò kún fún ọ̀pọ̀ òkú ọmọkùnrin tí èmi yóò pa nínú ìbínú àti nínú ìrunú mi. Èmi ó pa ojú mi mọ́ kúrò ní ìlú yìí nítorí gbogbo búburú wọn.
6 then will I make this house as Selo, and I will make [this] city a curse to all the nations of all the earth.
“‘Wò ó, èmi ó mú ọ̀já àti oògùn ìmúláradá dì í; èmi ó wo àwọn ènìyàn mi sàn. Èmi ó sì jẹ́ kí wọn ó jẹ ìgbádùn lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀ àlàáfíà àti òtítọ́.
7 And the priests, and the false prophets, and all the people heard Jeremias speaking these words in the house of the Lord.
Èmi ó mú Juda àti Israẹli kúrò nínú ìgbèkùn, èmi ó sì tún wọn kọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ṣe wà tẹ́lẹ̀.
8 And it came to pass, when Jeremias had ceased speaking all that the Lord had ordered him to speak to all the people, that the priests and the false prophets and all the people took him, saying,
Èmi ó wẹ̀ wọ́n nù kúrò nínú gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tí wọ́n ti ṣẹ sí mi. Èmi ó sì dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ àìṣedéédéé wọn sí mi jì wọ́n.
9 You shall surely die, because you have prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, This house shall be as Selo, and this city shall be made quite destitute of inhabitants. And all the people assembled against Jeremias in the house of the Lord.
Nígbà náà ni ìlú yìí ó fún mi ní òkìkí, ayọ̀, ìyìn àti ọlá níwájú gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ayé; tí wọ́n gbọ́ gbogbo rere tí èmi ṣe fún wọn. Wọn ó sì bẹ̀rù, wọn ó wárìrì fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ oore àti àlàáfíà tí èmi pèsè fún wọn.’
10 And the princes of Juda heard this word, and they went up out of the house of the king to the house of the Lord, and sat in the entrance of the new gate.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, ‘Ẹ̀yin yóò wí nípa ibí yìí pé, “Ó dahoro, láìsí ènìyàn tàbí ẹran.” Síbẹ̀ ní ìlú Juda àti ní òpópónà Jerusalẹmu tí ó dahoro, láìsí ẹni tó gbé ibẹ̀; ìbá à se ènìyàn tàbí ẹran, tí yóò gbọ́ lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí.
11 Then the priests and the false prophets said to the princes and to all the people, The judgment of death [is due] to this man; because he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.
Ariwo ayọ̀ àti inú dídùn, ohùn ìyàwó àti ti ọkọ ìyàwó àti ohùn àwọn tí ó ru ẹbọ ọpẹ́ wọn nílé Olúwa wí pé: “‘“Yin Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, nítorí Olúwa dára, ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ dúró títí láéláé.” Nítorí èmi ó dá ìkólọ ilẹ̀ náà padà sí bí o ṣe wà tẹ́lẹ̀,’ ni Olúwa wí.
12 Then Jeremias spoke to the princes, and to all the people, saying, The Lord sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city, all the words which you have heard.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, ‘Ní ilẹ̀ yìí tí ó ti dahoro láìsí ọkùnrin àti àwọn ẹran nínú gbogbo ìlú, kò ní sí pápá oko fún àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn láti mú àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn wọn sinmi.
13 And now amend your ways and your works, and listen to the voice of the Lord; and the Lord shall cease from the evils which he has pronounced against you.
Ní ìlú òkè wọ̀n-ọn-nì, nínú ìlú àfonífojì, àti nínú ìlú ìhà gúúsù, àti ní ilẹ̀ ti Benjamini, ní ibi wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ó yí Jerusalẹmu ká, àti ní ìlú Juda ni agbo àgùntàn yóò tún máa kọjá ní ọwọ́ ẹni tí ń kà wọ́n,’ ni Olúwa wí.
14 And behold, I am in your hands; do to me as is expedient, and as it is best for you.
“‘Àwọn ọjọ́ náà ń bọ̀,’ ni Olúwa wí, ‘tí èmi ó mú ìlérí rere tí mo ṣe fún ilé Israẹli àti ilé Juda ṣẹ.
15 But know for a certainty, that if you kill me, you bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon them that dwell in it; for in truth the Lord has sent me to you to speak in your ears all these words.
“‘Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì àti ní àkókò náà, Èmi ó gbé olódodo dìde láti ẹ̀ka Dafidi. Yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àti ohun tí ó tọ́ ní ilẹ̀ náà.
16 Then the princes and all the people said to the priests and to the false prophets; Judgment of death is not [due] to this man; for he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.
Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, Juda yóò di ẹni ìgbàlà. Jerusalẹmu yóò sì máa gbé láìséwu. Orúkọ yìí ni a ó máa pè é Olúwa wa olódodo.’
17 And there rose up men of the elders of the land, and said to all the assembly of the people,
Nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Dafidi kò ní kùnà láti rí ọkùnrin tí yóò jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ ní ilé Israẹli.
18 Michaeas the Morathite lived in the days of Ezekias king of Juda, and said to all the people of Juda, Thus says the Lord; Sion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become a desolation, and the mountain of the house shall be a thicket of trees.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àlùfáà tí ó jẹ́ ọmọ Lefi kò ní kùnà láti ní ọkùnrin kan tí ó dúró níwájú mi ní gbogbo ìgbà láti rú ẹbọ sísun; ẹbọ jíjẹ àti láti pèsè ìrúbọ.’”
19 Did Ezekias and all Juda in any way kill him? Was it not that they feared the Lord, and they made supplication before the Lord, and the Lord ceased from the evils which he [had] pronounced against them? whereas we have wrought great evil against our own souls.
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé:
20 And there was [another] man prophesying in the name of the Lord, Urias the son of Samaeas of Cariathiarim; and he prophesied concerning this land according to all the words of Jeremias.
“Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa sọ: ‘Tí ìwọ bá lè dá májẹ̀mú mi ní òru tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ọ̀sán àti òru kò lè sí ní àkókò wọn mọ́.
21 And king Joakim and all the princes heard all his words, and sought to kill him; and Urias heard [it] and went into Egypt.
Nígbà náà ni májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi àti májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú Lefi tí ó jẹ́ àlùfáà, àwọn ìránṣẹ́ níwájú mi lè bàjẹ́, tí Dafidi kò sì rí ẹni láti jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀.
22 And the king sent men into Egypt;
Èmi ó mú àwọn ọmọ lẹ́yìn Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi àti Lefi tí ó jẹ́ oníwàásù níwájú mi di bí ìràwọ̀ ojú ọ̀run, tí kò ṣe é kà àti bí iyẹ̀pẹ̀ ojú Òkun tí kò ṣe é wọ́n.’”
23 and they brought him thence, and brought him into the king; and he struck him with the sword, and cast him into the sepulchre of the children of his people.
Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Jeremiah wá wí pé:
24 Nevertheless the hand of Achicam son of Saphan was with Jeremias, to prevent his being delivered into the hands of the people, or being killed.
“Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ kò kíyèsi pé àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ń sọ pé: ‘Olúwa ti kọ àwọn ọba méjèèjì tí ó yàn sílẹ̀’? Nítorí náà, ni wọ́n ti ṣe kẹ́gàn àwọn ènìyàn mi. Wọn kò sì mọ̀ wọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí orílẹ̀-èdè kan.
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Bí èmi kò bá ti da májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú ọ̀sán àti òru àti pẹ̀lú òfin ọ̀run àti ayé tí kò lè yẹ̀.
Nígbà náà ni èmi ó kọ ọmọ lẹ́yìn Jakọbu àti Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ mi tí èmi kò sì ní yan ọ̀kan nínú ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ láti jẹ́ alákòóso lórí àwọn ọmọ Abrahamu, Isaaki àti Jakọbu; nítorí èmi ó mú ìkólọ wọn padà; èmi ó sì ṣàánú fún wọn.’”
