Yelemaia 12
1 Hina Gode! Na da Dima fofada: loba, Di da moloidafa ba: la: loba. Be na da moloidafa hou hisu hisu Dima adole ba: ma: mu. Abuliba: le wadela: i hamosu dunu da bagade gagui amola hahawane esalabala? Abuliba: le ogogosu wamolasu dunu da didili hamosala: ?
Lord, when I complain to you, you always show yourself to be in the right. Even so I still want to present my case to you. Why is it that wicked people do so well? Why do those who are unfaithful to you live so comfortably?
2 Di da amo wadela: i hamosu dunu bugisa. Ilia difi da gudu sa: ili, ilia heda: sa amola fage legesa. Ilia da ogogole eno dunuma Dia hou nodone sia: sa. Be ilia da Dima hame asigisa.
You planted them, and they've taken root, grown, and produced fruit. They're always talking about you but they don't think of you, even for a moment.
3 Be Hina Gode! Di da na hou dawa: Di da na hawa: hamosu ba: lala! Na da Dima bagade asigisa. Amo di dawa: Dunu da sibi medole legemusa: hiouginana ahoa, amo defele Dia amo wadela: i dunu hiouginana masa. Dia ili medole legemusa: eso ilegema! Amola ilia da amo esoga doaga: mane, Dia noga: le sosodo aligima!
But you know me, Lord, you see me, and examine what I think about you. Drag off these people like sheep to be slaughtered; keep them apart for the time when they're killed.
4 Eso habodane ninia soge da hafoga: i dagoi amola gisi sogebi huluane ganodini bioi dagoi ba: ma: bela: ? Ohe fi amola sio fi amola da bogogia: lala. Bai ninia fi dunu da wadela: le hamonana. Amola ilia da amane sia: daha, “Gode da ninia hamobe hame ba: lala.”
How long will the land have to mourn and the grass in every field be dried up because of the evil of the people who live there? The animals and birds have died out because the people have said, “He doesn't know what's going to happen to us.”
5 Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Yelemaia! Di da dunu baligimusa: hehenanebeba: le, helesa. Di da habodane hosi baligimusa: hehenama: bela: ? Di da ifa hamedene umi amoga leloma: ne hame dawa: beba: le, habodane Yodane hano gadenene iwila amo ganodini leloma: bela: ?
The Lord says, Once you've become worn out in a foot race against men, how would you win racing against horses? If you trip up in open ground, how would you do in the tangled undergrowth beside the Jordan?
6 Dunu huluane, amola dia sosogodafa, diolalali da di hohonoi dagoi. Dunu eno da dima doagala: sea, ilia amola da dima doagala: musa: gilisisa. Ilia da dima asigi sia: sia: sea, ilia hou mae dafawaneyale dawa: ma.”
Even your own brothers and your father's family have betrayed you; they have publicly criticized you. Don't trust them when they talk nicely to you!
7 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da Isala: ili yolesi dagoi. Na ilegei fi amo Na da higale yolesi. Dunu fi amoma Na da asigisa, Na da ilia ha lai dunu amo ilia lobo da: iya ligisi dagoi.
I have given up on my people; I have abandoned the nation I chose. I have handed over the ones I truly love to their enemies.
8 Na ilegei fi da Nama baligi fa: su. Ilia da laione wa: me iwilaga esala defele Nama husu. Amaiba: le, wali Na da Na fi higasa.
They've turned into a wild lion, roaring at me—that's why I hate them.
9 Na ilegei fi dunu da sio afae amo da la: idi la: idi buhibaga doagala: i, amo defele ba: sa. Sigua ohe huluane, ilia amo moma: ne misa: ne wele sia: ma!
My people are like a spotted bird of prey to me with other birds of prey circling to attack it. Go and bring all the wild animals to eat up the carcass.
10 Ga fi ouligisu dunu bagohame da Na waini efe sagai wadela: lesi. Ilia da Na ifabi huluane amo ososa: gi. Na soge ida: iwane gala ilia wadela: lesili, bu hafoga: i soge agoane hamosu.
Many shepherds have come and destroyed my vineyard; they have trampled down the crops in my field. They have turned my pleasant land into an empty wasteland.
11 Na da Na soge ba: sea, wadela: i hafoga: i soge agoane ba: sa. Soge huluanedafa da wadela: i hafoga: i soge agoane hamoi, amola dunu huluane da amo asigiwane hame dawa: digisa.
They have made it into a desert; it mourns before me, lying desolate. The whole country is a wasteland, but no one cares.
12 Hafoga: i agolo soge amoga dunu da gegele lamusa: maha. Na da soge huluane wadela: lesimusa: gegesu dunu asunasi dagoi. Dunu huluane da olofole esalumu hame dawa:
The destructive armies have crossed all the bare desert hills for the Lord's sword destroys from one end of the country to the other. No one has any peace.
13 Na fi dunu da widi hawa: bugi, be gagalobo fawane faisa. Ilia da gasa bagadewane hawa: hamoi, be bidi hame ba: i. Na da ilima ougi bagadeba: le, ilia sagai da ha: i manu hame legei.”
My people sowed wheat but harvested thorns. They wore themselves out but gained no benefit. You should be ashamed of such a poor harvest, caused by the Lord's furious anger.
14 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da Isala: ili ilia na: iyado fi dunu ilima sia: gala. Bai ilia da soge amo Na da Na fi Isala: ili dunu ilima i, amo wadela: lesi dagoi. Dunu da bugi amo a: le fasibi defele, Na da amo dunu ilia soge amoga a: le fasimu. Na da Yuda fi dunu gaga: mu.
This is what the Lord says: When it comes these evil nearby nations who attack the country that I gave to my people Israel, I'm going to uproot them from their land. I'm also going to uproot the people of Judah from among them.
15 Be Na da amo fi dunu fadegale fasili ga gaguli ahoasea, fa: no Na da bu ilima asigili, ilia sogedafa amoga bu oule masunu.
However, once I have uprooted them, I will have mercy on them again, and bring each one back to their property and their land.
16 Ilia da dafawanedafa Na fi dunu ilia sia: ne gadosu hou lalegagusia amola ‘Hina Gode da esala’ amo sia: dafawane ilegesea (musa: ilia da Na fi ilima Ba: iele ea dio amoma dafawane ilegema: ne sia: su olelei), amasea ilia da Na fidafa amoga gilisi dagoi ba: mu, amola ilia da hahawane bagade gaguiwane esalumu.
If they will honestly learn the ways of my people and respect me, making their vows to me, just as they once taught my people to swear by Baal, then they will do well among my people.
17 Be nowa fi da Na sia: hame nabasea, Na da amo fi fadegale fasili, wadela: lesimu. Na, Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.”
But if they refuse to obey, then I will not only uproot that nation but I will completely destroy it, declares the Lord.
