Jeremaya 7:24 - Holy Bible Nigerian Pidgin English
24 But dem nor gri listin or hear mi. Dem dey do wetin dia sturbon and wiked heart sey make dem do. Instead make dem dey betta, dem kon worse pass as dem bi before.
Yu warn dem sey make dem obey wetin Yu tish, but dem rijet yor law bikos of pride and even doh yor law dey give life, dem nor gri obey am, bikos of dia strong head and sturbones.
Dis wiked pipol nor gri obey mi. Dem dey follow dia sturbon and wiked heart kon dey woship and serve oda gods. So dem go bi like dis nika wey nor get value again.
Just as nika fine and dey tight pesin for waist, na so I wont make Israel and Jerusalem pipol whole mi tight. So dat dem go bi my pipol wey go dey praiz and honor my name; but dem nor gri obey mi.”
Una wey sey na tree bi una papa and rock na una mama, God go disgrace una. Dis tins go happen, bikos instead of una to follow mi, una kon waka leave mi. But anytime una dey for trobol, una go sey make I kom save una.
Pipol wey nor gri listin to wetin God tok, dem dey tell dem sey, ‘Evritin go-go well with una!’ And dem dey tell sturbon pipol sey, ‘Bad tins nor go happen to una at-all!’
But make una first gri sey una don sin against mi wey bi di Oga una God. Make una konfess sey una nor dey obey my kommand and una don show una love to oda gods for under evry green tree.” Mi, wey bi God, don tok.
Wen dat time rish, pipol go know Jerusalem as ‘God Throne’ and all di nashons go gada kom woship mi for der. Dem nor go do wetin dia sturbon and wiked heart sey make dem do again.
But wen dem kom dis land kon dey stay as dia own, dem nor kon dey obey yor kommand or do wetin Yu tish dem; dem nor do wetin Yu orda dem to do and na dis make Yu distroy dem.
I send my savant, di profets kom meet una sey make una stop di bad tins wey una dey do kon do di korrect tin. Dem warn una sey make una nor woship and serve oda gods, so dat una go kontinue to stay for dis land wey I give una and una grand-grand papa, but una nor gri listin or hear dem.
God tell en pipol, “Make una stop and look round. Mi, wey bi God, don tok. Ask for di old way wey bi God own and make una follow am.” But dem ansa, “Dat nor bi di way wey wi like to follow!”
“But even as dem dey wildaness, dem rijet mi. Dem break my laws kon rijet my kommand wey dey give life to doz wey dey obey am. Dem distroy di Sabat finish. Wen dem dey di wildaness, I dey ready to make dem feel as my vexnashon strong rish.
“But dat generashon still rijet mi. Dem break my laws and dem nor gri keep my kommand wey dey give life to doz wey obey am. Dem distroy di Sabat finish. So, I dey ready to make dem feel as my vexnashon strong rish and I like to kill all of dem as dem dey di wildaness,
But dem rijet mi and nor gri listin to mi. Dem nor gri trowey dia juju or stop to woship Egypt gods and naw, I dey ready to make dem feel as my vexnashon strong rish.
Una dey obey only King Omri wiked laws and una wiked like King Ahab! So, I go use una as ezample kon distroy una finish. Dem go ponish una and evribody wey si una, go laf well-well.”
“Make una make sure sey nobody among una wey dey hear dis tins today, bilive sey evritin dey okay with am, even doh e nor dey hear pipol word. Dis kind tin go skata all of una, weda una dey good or bad.
