Yelemaia 13
1 Hina Gode da nama abula selefa dunumuni gala, amo bidi lale, gasisalima: ne sia: i. Be E da amo selefa hanoa mae gema: ne sia: i.
This is what the Lord told me to do: Go and buy yourself a linen loincloth and put it on, but don't wash it.
2 Amaiba: le, na da amo selefa bidi lale, gasisali.
So I went and bought a loincloth as the Lord had instructed me, and I put it on.
3 Amalalu, Hina Gode da nama bu amane sia: i,
Then the Lord gave me another message:
4 “Iufala: idisi Hano amoga masa! Dia selefa amo gele gelabo ganodini wamolegema.”
Take the loincloth that you bought and put on, and go immediately to the River Perath and hide it there in a hole among the rocks.
5 Amaiba: le na da asili, Iufala: idisi Hano gadenene na selefa wamolegei.
So I went and hid it at the River Perath, as the Lord had told me.
6 Fa: no, eso enoga, Hina Gode da na Iufala: idisi Hano amoga bu asili, selefa bu lama: ne sia: i.
A long time later the Lord told me, Go to Perath, and get the loincloth that I ordered you to hide there.
7 Amaiba: le, na da bu asi. Be na da sogebi amoga na da selefa wamolegei ba: loba, selefa da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: i.
I went to Perath and dug up the loincloth, and removed it from where I'd hidden it. Obviously it was ruined—completely useless.
8 Amalalu, Hina Gode da nama bu amane sia: i,
Then a message from the Lord came to me:
9 “Dia selefa wadela: lesi defele, Na da Yuda ilia gasa fi amola Yelusaleme ilia gasa fi wadela: lesimu.
This is what the Lord says: I will ruin the arrogance of Judah and the great arrogance of Jerusalem in exactly the same way.
10 Amo wadela: i fi dunu da Nama nabasu hou hame hamosa. Ilia da dogo ga: nasi amola wadela: i hou hamonana, amola ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadolala amola hawa: hamonana. Amaiba: le, ilia da dia selefa defele, wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.
These evil people refuse to listen to what I tell them. They follow their own stubborn and evil thinking and run off to worship other gods—they will be like this loincloth, completely useless.
11 Selefa da dunu ea ifo ga: sua noga: le defele gagusa. Amo defele, Na da Isala: ili amola Yuda dunu ilia Na hou gasawane gagumu hanai galu. Ilia da Na fi dunu esaloma: ne amola Na Dio amoma nodoma: ne amola gaguia gadoma: ne, Na da agoane dawa: i galu. Be ilia da Na sia: nabimu hame dawa: i galu.”
In the same way that a loincloth holds tightly to the body, so I made all the people of Israel and Judah hold tightly to me, declares the Lord. Then they could have been my people, representing me, giving me honor and praise. But they refused to listen.
12 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Yelemaia! Isala: ili dunu ilima amane sia: ma! Waini ganagu huluane da waini hanoga nabaidafa ba: mu da defea. Ilia da dima bu amane adole imunu, ‘Ninia dawa: ! Waini ganagu huluane da waini hanoga nabamu da defea.’
So tell them this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Every wine jar shall be filled with wine. When they reply, “Don't we know that already? Of course every wine jar should be filled with wine!”
13 Amasea, ilima agoane olelema, ‘Na, Hina Gode, da dunu huluane amo soge ganodini esala, ilia feloama: ne, waini hano amoga nabamu. Amo hina bagade (ilia da Da: ibidi egaga fi) amola ‘gobele salasu’ amola balofede dunu amola Yelusaleme dunu huluane da waini hano amoga nabaidafa ba: mu.’
then tell them that this is what the Lord says: I'm going to make everyone who lives in this land drunk—the kings sitting on David's throne, the priests, the prophets, and all the people of Jerusalem.
14 Amasea, osoboga hahamoi ganagu da ganagu eno amoga fabeba: le goudasa, amo defele Na da dunu da: i amola ayeligi huluanedafa defele goudamu. Na da hamedafa asigili, ili huluane medole legemu.
I'm going to smash them against each other like wine jars, both parents and children, declares the Lord. I won't let any mercy or pity or compassion stop me from destroying them.
15 Isala: ili fi dunu! Nabima! Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi! Dilia hou fonobone, Ea sia: nabima!
Listen and pay attention. Don't be arrogant, for the Lord has spoken.
16 Dilia Hina Godema nodone dawa: ma! Dilia da hadigi ba: mu hanai galu. Be Hina Gode da hadigi afadenene, dilima gasi iasa: besa: le amola dilia sadenane dafasa: besa: le, Hina Godema nodone dawa: ma amola Ea sia: nabima!
Honor the Lord your God before he brings the darkness, before you trip and fall in the twilight on the mountains. You long for light to come, but he send only gloom and complete darkness.
17 Be dilia da hame nabasea, na da dilia gasa fi hou dawa: beba: le, wamowane dimu. Na da ha: giwane dimu amola na si hano da hano agoane sa: imu. Bai Hina Gode Ea fi dunu da mugululi udigili se iasu hawa: hamoma: ne asi dagoi.
But if you refuse to listen, I will weep secretly inside because of your pride. My tears pouring down because the Lord's flock has been captured.
18 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i, “Hina bagade amola ea ame elama ela da fisu fisili gudu sa: ima: ne sia: ma! Bai elea habuga ida: iwane da elea dialumaga fadegale sa: i dagoi.
Tell the king and the queen mother: Get down from your thrones, because your splendid crowns have fallen from your heads.
19 Ha lai dunu da Yuda gagoe (south) amoga moilai doagala: lala. Amoga masunu da hamedei. Ha lai dunu da Yuda fi dunu huluane mugululi hiouginanu asi dagoi.”
The towns in the Negev are surrounded; no one can get through to them. The whole of Judah has been taken away into exile, everyone has been exiled.
20 Yelusaleme fi dunu! Ba: ma! Dilia ha lai dunu da gagoe (north), amoga doagala: musa: maha. Dunu amo Gode da dili ouligimusa: sia: i, amola dilia da asigiwane ba: i, amo da habila: ?
Look up and you'll see the invaders coming from the north. Where is the flock that was given to you to look after? Where are the sheep you were so proud of?
21 Dunu amo da dilia asigi na: iyado dunu dilia dawa: i galu, amo da dilima doagala: sea, hasalasili, dili ouligisia, dilia da adi sia: ma: bela: ? Dilia da uda da mano lalelegelala se naba, amo defele se nabimu.
What are you going to say when he puts your enemies in charge of you, people you once counted as your friends? Won't you suffer pains like a woman in labor?
22 Dilia abula huluane da gasawane fadegale amola dunu da uda wadela: lesisa, amo defele dilia da wadela: lesi dagoi. Dilia da abuliba: le amo hou da dilima doaga: bela: adole ba: sa! Bai dilia hou da wadela: idafa.
If you say to yourself, Why has this happened to me? it's because you have been so wicked. That's why your skirts were stripped off and you were raped.
23 Bunumai dunu da ea gadofo afadenemu dawa: bela: ? ‘Lebade’ da ea daginisisi fadegamu dawa: bela: ? Hame mabu! Be amo dawa: mu ganiaba, dilia wadela: i hamosu fawane dawa: su dunu da moloidafa hou hamomu dawa: la: loba.
Can Ethiopians change the color of their skin? Can a leopard change its spots? In the same way you can't change and do good because you're so used to doing evil.
24 Hafoga: i soge fo da bioi gisi amo afagogosa. Amo defele, Hina Gode da dili afagogomu.
I'm going to scatter you like chaff blown away by the desert wind.
25 Dilia da agoai ba: mu, E da ilegei dagoi. Bai dilia da E gogole, ogogosu ‘gode’ amo dafawaneyale dawa: su.
This is what's going to happen to you; this is what I have decided to do to you, declares the Lord, because you have forgotten me and believed in lies.
26 Hina Gode Hisu da dili gogosiama: ne, dilia abula gisa: mu.
I will pull your skirts up over your face, so you will be seen naked and ashamed.
27 Dilia hou amo E da bagade higasa, amo hamosu amola amo E da ba: i dagoi. Dilia da dunu ea na: iyado ea uda hanaiba: le hamosa, amola gawali hosi da aseme hosi hamomusa: dawa: sa, amo defele dilia hanaiwane agologa amola umi sogega, ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima fa: no bobogesa. Yelusaleme fi dunu! Dilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Dilia da moloidafa ledo hamedei ba: mu da hamedei.
I watched your acts of adultery and lust, how you prostituted yourselves shamelessly, worshiping idols on the hills and in the fields. Yes, I saw the disgusting things you did. Disaster is coming to you, Jerusalem! How long are you going to remain unclean?
