< Yelemaia 2 >
1 Hina Gode da nama amane sia: i,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 “Amo sia: Yelusaleme esalebe dunu huluane ilima olelema, ‘Dia manohadi eso amoga Nama mae fisili noga: le fa: no bobogelalu. Na da fedege agoane di uda lai agoane laloba, di da Nama bagade asigisu. Dia da wadela: i hafoga: i soge, soge amo da ha: i manu hame bugi soge, amo ganodini Nama noga: le fa: no bobogesu. Amo hou Na bu dawa: lala.
Go and call out before the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus hath said the Lord, I remember unto thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thy espousals, thy going after me in the wilderness, through a land that is not sown.
3 Isala: ili fi! Dili da Na: fawane galu. Dilia da Na dogolegei sema fi galu. Nowa dunu da dilima se iasu, amo Na da wadela: su amola se iasu ilima iasi. Na, Hina Gode, da sia: i dagoi.” Isala: ili Fi ilia Aowalalia ilia Wadela: i Hou
A holy thing is Israel unto the Lord, the first of his fruits: all that devour him shall incur guilt; evil shall come over them, saith the Lord.
4 Dilia! Ya: igobe egaga fi dunu! Isala: ili fi dilia! Hina Gode Ea sia: nabima!
Hear ye the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob, and all ye families of the house of Israel.
5 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Dilia aowalalia da Nama adi wadela: i hou diwane udidibala: ? Ilia da abuliba: le Nama baligi fa: bela? Ilia da hamedei loboga hamoi ‘gode’ agoaila ilima nodone sia: ne gadobeba: le, bu ilia hou amola da hamedei ba: i dagoi.
Thus hath said the Lord, What fault did your fathers find in me, that they went away far from me, and walked after vanity, and became vain?
6 Na da ili gaga: le, Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, ga asunasi! Ilia da hahawane masa: ne, Na da ili bisili, wadela: i hafoga: i soge (amo ganodini da gibu hame, gasi dunasi bagade amola dunu hamedafa esala) amo baligima: ne oule asi. Be ilia da Nama hame asigi galu.
That they said not, Where is the Lord that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of wildness, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land through which no one had passed, and where no man had dwelt?
7 Na da ili nasegagi soge noga: idafa, ilia da amo ea ha: i manu amola liligi noga: idafa hahawane lama: ne, amoma oule misi. Be amo mae dawa: le, ilia da Na soge wadela: lesi. Ilia da soge Na ilima i, amo wadela: lesi.
And I brought you into the land of fruitful fields, to eat its fruit and its goodly products; but ye came and ye made unclean my land, and my heritage ye rendered an abomination.
8 Ilia gobele salasu dunu da “Hina Gode da habila: ?” hame adole ba: i. Na gobele salasu dunu, ilia da Na hamedafa dawa: i. Na fi ouligisu dunu da Nama odoga: i dagoi. Balofede dunu da Ba: iele ea dioba: le ilegele sia: i, amola hamedei loboga hamoi ‘gode’ agoaila ilima nodone sia: ne gadoi.
The priests said not, Where is the Lord? and they that handle the law knew me not; and the shepherds transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied in the name of Ba'al, and after things that cannot profit did they walk.
9 Amaiba: le, Na, Hina Gode, da Na fi ilima bu fofada: mu. Na da iligaga fi ilima fofada: mu.
Therefore will I contend yet farther with you, saith the Lord, and with your children's children will I contend.
10 Guma: dini Saibalase oga amoga masa! Amola dunu eno gusudili Gida sogega asunasima. Amasea, noga: le ba: ma! Amo hou defele da musa: hamedafa ba: i.
For pass over to the isles of the Chittites, and see; and unto Kedar send, and consider well and see if any thing like this hath happened.
11 Fifi asi gala eno da ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ hame afadenesu. Be Na fi da Na fisili, eno ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi lai. Na da ilia Godedafa amola Na da ili fidibiba: le, eno fifi asi gala da ilima nodoi. Be ilia da Na fisili, ogogosu ‘gode’ amo da ili fidimusa: hame dawa: , ilima fa: no bobogei.
Hath a nation exchanged its gods, which are yet no gods? and [still] my people hath exchanged its glory for that which can not profit.
12 Amaiba: le, Na da mu amoma amane sia: sa ‘Fofogadigima! Dia beda: iba: le amola fofogadigiba: le, yaguguma.
Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and let your hair stand at an end, be ye greatly terrified, saith the Lord.
13 Bai Na fi dunu da wadela: i hou aduna hamoi dagoi. Na da gaheabolo hano bubuga: su defele gala. Be ilia da Na hihini, Nama baligi fa: i. Amola ilia da igi magufu amoga hano si dogoi. Be amo hano si da goudaiba: le, hano da amo ganodini dialumu da hamedei ba: sa.”
For two evils have my people committed: me have they forsaken, the source of living waters, to hew out for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns, that cannot hold water.
14 Isala: ili fi da udigili hawa: hamosu fi hame. Ilia da udigili hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne, hame lalelegei. Amaiba: le, abuliba: le ilia ha lai dunu da ili awele gugunufisala: ?
Is Israel a servant? or one born [to servitude] in the house? why hath he been given up to plunder?
15 Ilia da Isala: ili fi ilima laione wa: me defele husa. Isala: ili ea ha lai da Isala: ili soge wadela: lesili, hafoga: i dunu hame esalebe soge amo defele hamoi dagoi. Isala: ili moilai huluane da wadela: lesi dagoi dialebe, amola amo ganodini, dunu da hame esalebe.
[That] over him young lions roared, let their voice resound, and changed his land into a waste, that his cities are burnt, left without an inhabitant?
16 Dafawane! Memefisi dunu amola Dabinisi dunu da Isala: ili ea dialuma goudai dagoi.
Even the children of Noph and Thachpanches have crushed the crown of thy head.
17 Isala: ili! Disu da amo se nabasu hamoi dagoi. Na da dia Hina Godedafa amola Na da di logoga hahawane oule ahoanebe ba: i. Be di da Na yolesi dagoi.
Hast thou not procured this unto thyself, through thy forsaking the Lord thy God, while he was leading thee on the [right] way?
18 Di da Idibidi sogega asili, Naile Hano amoga nasea, adi bidi ba: ma: bela: ? O Asilia sogega asili, Iufala: idisi Hano amoga nasea, adi bidi ba: ma: bela: ?
And now what hast thou to do on the way of Egypt, to drink the waters of Shichor? and what hast thou to do on the way of Asshur, to drink the waters of the river?
19 Di da Nama baligi fa: beba: le, wadela: i bagade hamoi dagoi. Amo hou da fedege agoane dima fofada: ne, se imunu. Dia da dawa: mu. Na da dia Hina Gode, amola di da Na fisibiba: le, wadela: i bagade hamoi. Na, Ouligisudafa Hina Gode Bagadedafa da sia: i dagoi.”
Thy own wickedness shall chastise thee, and thy backslidings shall correct thee; and thou shalt know and see that evil and bitter was thy forsaking the Lord thy God, while the dread of me was not upon thee, saith the Lord Eternal of hosts.
20 Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili! Di da musa: hemonega Na Hinadafa Hou higasu. Di da Na sia: nabimu higasu, amola Nama nodone sia: ne gadomu higasu. Be dia da goumi huluane amo da: iya amola golofoyei ifa huluane amo hagudu, dia da ogogosu wadela: i uda lasu hou ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu.
Because from yore did I break thy yoke, did I burst asunder thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress: nevertheless upon every high hill and under every green tree thou makest thy bed, as harlot.
21 Na da fedege agoane di waini efe hawa: ida: iwane agoane bugi. Be di da wadela: le heda: le, wali hamedei dasai waini efe agoane ba: sa.
Yet I had planted thee as a branch of a noble vine, wholly of the proper seed; but how art thou changed unto me into a degenerate plant of an ignoble vine?
22 Di da nigima: agoane ba: sa. Amola di da gasa bagade safo amoga dia nigima: doga: i ganiaba, Na da dia nigima: amaiwane dialebe ba: la: loba.
For though thou wash thyself with natron, and take for thyself much soap: yet would the stain of thy iniquity remain before me, saith the Lord Eternal.
23 Dia da dia hou hame wadela: lesi amola Ba: ielema hame nodone sia: ne gadosu sia: sa. Be amo da ogogosa. Ba: ma! Di da fago ganodini, wadela: i hou bagade hamosu. Di da sigua ga: mele aseme amo da hafoga: i sogega gawali hogomusa: hehenasu agoane gala. (Gode da fedege agoane, Isala: ili fi dunu huluane da dunu afae agoane sia: sa.)
How canst thou say, I am not become unclean, after the Be'alim have I not gone? see thy way in the valley, know what thou hast done: [like] a swift dromedary bound fast to her ways;
24 E da gawali hanaiba: le, nowa da e ouligima: bela: ? Gawali da ema doaga: musa: dawa: sea, e da logo doasi dagoi hahawane ba: sa. Amo esoha, amo aseme da gawali ema doaga: mu bagade hanai gala.
[Like] a wild ass used to the wilderness, that at her pleasure snuffeth up the wind; her lust—who can turn this away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month will they find her.
25 Isala: ili! Amo hou yolema! Di da ‘gode’ eno ilima hehenane fa: no bobogebeba: le, dia emo da wadela: sa amola dia da: gisu da hafoga: i. Be di da amane sia: sa, “Hame! Na da sinidigimu hamedei ba: sa. Na da ga fi ‘gode’ hanai gala amola na da ilima fa: no bobogemusa: dawa: lala.”
“Prevent thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from being thirsty;” but thou saidst, It is useless; no, for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.
26 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Ilia da wamolasu dunu gagulaligisia, e da gogosiasu ba: sa. Amo defele, dilia Isala: ili dunu huluane, dilia hina bagade, eagene ouligisu dunu, gobele salasu dunu amola ba: la: lusu dunu, huluane da gogosiasu ba: mu.
As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so have the house of Israel been made ashamed, they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets,
27 Dilia da ifa amo da dilia ada amola igi da dilia ame, amo sia: sa. Amaiba: le, dilia da se bagade amola gogosiasu ba: mu. Bai dilia da Nama mae sinidigili, Nama baligi fa: i dagoi. Be dilia da se nabasea, dilia da Nama misini, Na dili gaga: ma: ne edegesa.
Who say to the wood, Thou art my father; and to the stone, Thou hast brought us forth; for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face; but in the time of their misfortune will they say, Arise, and save us.
28 Amo ‘gode’ liligi dilisu hamoi, amo da habila: ? Dilia se nabasea, ilia da dili fidimu da defea. Ilia da amo hou hamoma: ne defelela: ? Yuda! Dia ‘gode’ ilia idi da dia moilai bai bagade huluane ilia idi defele gala.
But where are then thy gods that thou hast made for thyself? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy misfortune; for equal to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah.
29 Dilia Nama egasu da adila: ? Dilia da abuliba: le Nama odoga: bela: ?
Wherefore will ye contend with me? all of you have transgressed against me, saith the Lord.
30 Na da dilima se iasu be dilia hou hame hahamoi. Na da dilia hou hahamoma: ne sia: i, be dilia da hame nabi. Dilia da ougi bagade laione wa: me defele, dilia balofede dunu medole legei.
To no purpose have I smitten your children; correction they accepted not: your sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.
31 Isala: ili dunu! Na sia: nabima! Na da dilima adi wadela: i hou hamobela: ? Na da dilima wadela: i hafoga: i soge o gasi amola wadela: lesisu soge agoane ba: bela: ? Hame mabu! Amaiba: le, dilia da abuliba: le dilia hanaiga hamomu sia: sala: ? Abuliba: le Nama hamedafa sinidigimu sia: sala: ?
O [present] generation, regard ye the word of the Lord. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of deep darkness? wherefore say my people, We wander about; we cannot come any more unto thee?
32 Uda a: fini da ea nina: hamosu igi gogolesala: ? Uda da ea gawa fisia ga: su abula ida: iwane gogolesala: ? Hame mabu! Be Na fi dunu da eso amo idimu hamedei amoga Na gogolei dagoi.
Can a virgin forget her ornament, or a bride her decorations? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
33 Dilia da dili lamu dunu ilima fa: no bobogemu bagade dawa: Wadela: idafa uda da dilia hou ba: sea, eno wadela: i hou baligili hamomusa: dawa:
Why ornamentest thou thy way to seek for love? truly even the worst hast thou used thyself as thy ways.
34 Dilia abula da wamolasu dunu ilia maga: mega nigima: i hame, be hame gagui dunu amola asaboi wadela: i hamosu hame dawa: dunu, amo ea maga: mega nigima: i dagoi.
Also on thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the innocent needy ones: not while breaking in [thy house] didst thou find them; but for all these things.
35 Be amo mae dawa: le, dilia da amane sia: sa, ‘Ninia da wadela: i hame dawa: Hina Gode da ninima bu ougima: ne da bai hame gala.’ Be dilia da wadela: i hou hame hamosu amo ogogole sia: beba: le, Na, Hina Gode, Na da dilima se imunu.
Yet thou sayest, Yea, I am innocent, surely his anger is already turned away from me. Behold, I will hold judgment with thee, because thou sayest, I have not sinned.
36 Dilia da ga fi ‘gode’ liligi ilima sinidigiba: le, dilia hou fonobone wadela: lesi dagoi. Asilia fi da dili hame fidibiba: le, dilia da da: i dioi galu. Amola Idibidi da dili hame fidimuba: le, dilia da bu da: i diomu.
Why makest thou thyself so very low to change thy way? also because of Egypt shalt thou be made ashamed, as thou wast put to shame because of Assyria.
37 Dilia da gogosiabeba: le, dialuma fili sa: ili, Idibidi mae ba: ma: ne, sinidigimu. Dilia da ga fi ilia hou dafawaneyale dawa: sa. Be Na, Hina Gode da amo dunu higale yolesi. Dilia da ilima fidisu hamedafa ba: mu.
Also from this one shalt thou go forth, with thy hands [clasped] over thy head; for the Lord hath rejected those on whom thou trustest and thou shalt not prosper with them.
