Jeremiah 4:30 in English
Jeremiah 4:30 · Berean Standard Bible
And you, O devastated one, what will you do, though you dress yourself in scarlet, though you adorn yourself with gold jewelry, though you enlarge your eyes with paint? You adorn yourself in vain; your lovers despise you; they want to take your life.
Context
28Enti asase bɛdi awerɛhoɔ
na ɔsorosoro bɛduru sum,
ɛfiri sɛ makasa na merentwe nsan.
Masi gyinaeɛ na mennane no.” 29Apɔnkɔsotefoɔ ne agyantofoɔ nnyegyeeɛ
ma kuro biara sofoɔ dwane.
Ebinom kɔhyɛ nkyɛkyerɛ mu
ebinom foro kɔ abotan mu.
Nkuro no nyinaa so ada mpan;
na obiara nte so. 30Ɛdeɛn na woreyɛ Ao wo a woasɛe woɔ?
Adɛn na wofira kɔben
de sikakɔkɔɔ agudeɛ asiesie wo ho?
Adɛn na wode nnuro keka wʼani?
Wohyehyɛ wo ho kwa.
Wʼadɔfoɔ bu wo animtia;
wɔrepɛ wo akum wo. 31Mete osu bi te sɛ ɔbaa a awoɔ aka no,
mete apinisie te sɛ ɔbaa a ɔrebɔne awoɔ,
Ɔbabaa Sion su te sɛ deɛ nisupɔporɔ ahini no,
ɔtrɛ ne nsa mu na ɔka sɛ,
“Afei deɛ, meretɔ baha;
wɔde me kra ama awudifoɔ.”
