< Jeremiah 46 >
1 This is the word of the LORD about the nations—the word that came to Jeremiah the prophet
Ga maganar Ubangiji da ta zo wa Irmiya annabi game da al’ummai.
2 concerning Egypt and the army of Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt, which was defeated at Carchemish on the Euphrates River by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah:
Game da Masar. Ga saƙo game da sojojin Fir’auna Neko sarkin Masar, wanda Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya ci da yaƙi a Karkemish a Kogin Yuferites a shekara ta huɗu ta Yehohiyakim ɗan Yosiya sarkin Yahuda.
3 “Deploy your shields, small and large; advance for battle!
“Ku shirya garkuwoyinku, manya da ƙanana, ku kuma fito don yaƙi!
4 Harness the horses; mount the steeds; take your positions with helmets on! Polish your spears; put on armor!
Ku shirya dawakai, ku sa musu sirdi! Ku tsaya a wurarenku saye da hulunan kwano a kai! Ku wasa māsunku, ku yafa kayan yaƙinku!
5 Why am I seeing this? They are terrified, they are retreating; their warriors are defeated, they flee in haste without looking back; terror is on every side!”
Me nake gani? Sun tsorata, suna ja da baya, an ci jarumawansu. Suna gudu da sauri ba waiwayawa, akwai razana a kowane gefe,” in ji Ubangiji.
6 “The swift cannot flee, and the warrior cannot escape! In the north by the River Euphrates they stumble and fall.
“Masu saurin gudu ba sa iya gudu haka ma masu ƙarfi ba sa iya kuɓuta. A arewa ta Kogin Yuferites sun yi tuntuɓe sun fāɗi.
7 Who is this, rising like the Nile, like rivers whose waters churn?
“Wane ne wannan mai tashi kamar Nilu, kamar koguna masu tafasar ruwaye?
8 Egypt rises like the Nile, and its waters churn like rivers, boasting, ‘I will rise and cover the earth; I will destroy the cities and their people.’
Masar tana tashi kamar Nilu, kamar koguna masu tafasa. Tana cewa, ‘Zan tashi in rufe duniya; zan hallakar da birane da kuma mutanensu.’
9 Advance, O horses! Race furiously, O chariots! Let the warriors come forth— Cush and Put carrying their shields, men of Lydia drawing the bow.
Ku yi sukuwar hauka, ya dawakai! Ku tashi a guje, ya mahayan kekunan yaƙi! Ku yi ta fitowa, ya jarumawa, mutanen Kush da kuma Ludim masu riƙon garkuwoyi, mutanen Lidiya, masu iya jan baka.
10 For that day belongs to the Lord GOD of Hosts, a day of vengeance against His foes. The sword will devour until it is satisfied, until it is quenched with their blood. For the Lord GOD of Hosts will hold a sacrifice in the land of the north by the River Euphrates.
Amma wannan rana ta Ubangiji, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ranar ɗaukar fansa, gama ɗaukar fansa a kan maƙiyansa. Takobi zai yi ta ci sai ya gamsu, sai ya kashe ƙishirwansa da jini. Gama Ubangiji, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, zai miƙa hadaya a ƙasar arewa kusa da Kogin Yuferites.
11 Go up to Gilead for balm, O Virgin Daughter of Egypt! In vain you try many remedies, but for you there is no healing.
“Ki haura Gileyad ki samo magani, Ya Budurwa’Yar Masar. Amma kin riɓanya magani a banza; ba magani dominki.
12 The nations have heard of your shame, and your outcry fills the earth, because warrior stumbles over warrior and both of them have fallen together.”
Al’ummai za su ji game da kunyar da kika sha; kukanki zai cika duniya. Jarumi zai yi tuntuɓe a kan wani; dukansu biyu za su fāɗi tare.”
13 This is the word that the LORD spoke to Jeremiah the prophet about the coming of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to strike the land of Egypt:
Ga saƙon da Ubangiji ya yi wa Irmiya annabi game da zuwan Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon don yă yaƙi Masar.
14 “Announce it in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol; proclaim it in Memphis and Tahpanhes: ‘Take your positions and prepare yourself, for the sword devours those around you.’
“Ka yi shelar wannan a Masar, ka kuma furta shi a Migdol; ka yi shelarsa kuma a Memfis da Tafanes. ‘Ku ɗauki matsayinku ku kuma shirya, gama takobi na cin waɗanda suke kewaye da ku.’
15 Why have your warriors been laid low? They cannot stand, for the LORD has thrust them down.
Me zai sa a wulaƙanta jarumawanka haka? Ba za su iya tsayawa ba, gama Ubangiji zai ture su ƙasa.
16 They continue to stumble; indeed, they have fallen over one another. They say, ‘Get up! Let us return to our people and to the land of our birth, away from the sword of the oppressor.’
Za su yi ta tuntuɓe; za su fāɗi akan juna. Za su ce, ‘Mu tashi, mu koma zuwa wurin mutanenmu da kuma ƙasashenmu, daga takobin masu danniya.’
17 There they will cry out: ‘Pharaoh king of Egypt was all noise; he has let the appointed time pass him by.’
A can za su tā da murya su ce, ‘Fir’auna sarkin Masar mai yawan surutu ne kawai; ya bar zarafi ya wuce masa.’
18 As surely as I live, declares the King, whose name is the LORD of Hosts, there will come one who is like Tabor among the mountains and like Carmel by the sea.
“Muddin ina raye,” in ji Sarki, wanda sunansa ne Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, “wani zai ɓullo wanda yake kamar Tabor a cikin duwatsu, kamar Karmel kusa da teku.
19 Pack your bags for exile, O daughter dwelling in Egypt! For Memphis will be laid waste, destroyed and uninhabited.
Ku tattara kayanku don shirin zuwa zaman bauta, ku da kuke zama a Masar, gama Memfis za tă zama kufai ta zama kango, babu mazauna.
20 Egypt is a beautiful heifer, but a gadfly from the north is coming against her.
“Masar kyakkyawar karsana ce, amma bobuwa tana zuwa a kanta daga arewa.
21 Even the mercenaries among her are like fattened calves. They too will turn back; together they will flee, they will not stand their ground, for the day of calamity is coming upon them— the time of their punishment.
Sojojin da ta yi hayarsu a cikinta suna kamar’yan maruƙa masu kitse. Su ma za su juya su kuma gudu gaba ɗaya, ba za su iya tsayawa ba, gama ranar masifa tana zuwa a kansu, lokacin da za su sha hukunci.
22 Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent, for the enemy will advance in force; with axes they will come against her like woodsmen cutting down trees.
Masar za tă yi huci kamar macijin da yake gudu yayinda abokin gāba yana matsowa da ƙarfi; za su fāɗo mata gatura kamar mutanen da suke saran itatuwa.
23 They will chop down her forest, declares the LORD, dense though it may be, for they are more numerous than locusts; they cannot be counted.
Za su sari kurminta,” in ji Ubangiji, “ko da yake yana maƙare da itatuwa. Sun fi fāra yawa, ba su ƙidayuwa.
24 The Daughter of Egypt will be put to shame; she will be delivered into the hands of the people of the north.”
Za a kunyatar da Diyar Masar, da aka bashe ga mutanen arewa.”
25 The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I am about to punish Amon god of Thebes, along with Pharaoh, Egypt with her gods and kings, and those who trust in Pharaoh.
Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, “Ina gab da kawo hukunci a kan allahn Amon na Tebes, a kan Fir’auna, a kan Masar da allolinta da sarakunanta, da kuma a kan waɗanda suka dogara ga Fir’auna.
26 I will deliver them into the hands of those who seek their lives—of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his officers. But after this, Egypt will be inhabited as in days of old, declares the LORD.
Zan ba da su ga waɗanda suke neman ransu, ga Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon da fadawansa. Amma daga baya, Masar za tă kasance da mazauna kamar dā,” in ji Ubangiji.
27 But you, O Jacob My servant, do not be afraid, and do not be dismayed, O Israel. For I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their captivity! Jacob will return to quiet and ease, with no one to make him afraid.
“Kada ka ji tsoro, ya Yaƙub bawana; kada ka karai, ya Isra’ila. Tabbatacce zan cece ka daga wuri mai nisa, zuriyarka daga ƙasar bautarsu. Yaƙub zai sāke kasance cikin salama, rai kwance, babu kuma wanda zai sa ya ji tsoro.
28 And you, My servant Jacob, do not be afraid, declares the LORD, for I am with you. Though I will completely destroy all the nations to which I have banished you, I will not completely destroy you. Yet I will discipline you justly, and will by no means leave you unpunished.”
Kada ka ji tsoro, ya Yaƙub bawana, gama ina tare da kai,” in ji Ubangiji. “Ko da na hallaka dukan al’ummai sarai inda na kora ka, ba zan hallaka ka sarai ba. Zan hore ka amma da adalci kaɗai; ba zan bar ka ba hukunci ba.”
