Jeremiah 3
1 If a man divorces his wife and she goes and marries someone else, could he ever go back to her? Wouldn't the country be made totally unclean by this? But you have done worse by prostituting yourselves with many lovers, and now you want to come back to me? declares the Lord.
“In mutum ya saki matarsa ta kuwa bar shi ta auri wani mutum, zai iya komo da ita kuma? Ƙasar ba za tă ƙazantu gaba ɗaya ba? Amma kun yi rayuwa kamar karuwa da masoya masu yawa yanzu za ki komo wurina?” In ji Ubangiji.
2 Look up at the bare hilltops. Is there anywhere that you haven't had sex? You sat at the roadside like someone from the desert waiting for your lovers to pass by. You have made the land unclean with your prostitution and evil.
“Ta da idanu ki duba tsaunuka ki gani. Akwai wani wurin da ba a kwana da ke ba? A gefen hanya kin zauna kina jiran masoyanki, kin zauna kamar makiyayi a hamada. Kin ƙazantar da ƙasar da karuwancinki da muguntarki.
3 That's why no showers have been sent, and no spring rains have fallen. But you just stare back shamelessly like a prostitute; you refuse to accept you've done anything wrong.
Saboda haka an hana yayyafi, kuma babu ruwan bazara da ya sauka. Duk da haka kina da irin kallon da karuwa takan yi; kin ƙi ki ji kunya.
4 Didn't you just tell me, “My father, you've been such a close friend to me since I was little.
Yanzu ba kin kira ni, ‘Mahaifina, abokina daga ƙuruciyata ba,
5 You won't be angry with me for a long time, will you? You won't go on being like that forever?” This is what you've said, but you keep on sinning as much as you can.
kullum za ka riƙa fushi? Hasalarka za tă ci gaba har abada ne?’ Haka kike magana, amma kina aikata dukan muguntar da kika iya yi.”
6 During the reign of King Josiah, the Lord told me, Have you seen what unfaithful Israel has done? She has prostituted herself on every high hill and under every green tree.
A zamanin Sarki Yosiya, Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ka ga abin da marar amincin nan, Isra’ila ta yi? Ta haura kan kowane tudu mai tsayi da kowane gindin itace mai duhuwa ta yi zina a can.
7 I hoped that after she'd done all this she'd come back to me. But she didn't come back, and her unfaithful sister Judah saw what happened.
Na yi zaton bayan ta yi wannan duka, za tă komo wurina amma ba tă yi haka ba,’yar’uwarta marar aminci nan Yahuda ta gani.
8 She saw that because of everything unfaithful Israel had done on committing adultery, I sent her away, giving her a certificate of divorce. But her unfaithful sister Judah wasn't afraid and prostituted herself too.
Na ba wa Isra’ila marar bangaskiya takardar saki na kuwa kore ta saboda duk zinanta. Duk da haka na ga cewa’yar’uwarta marar amincin nan Yahuda ba ta da tsoro; ita ma ta fita ta yi zina.
9 Israel didn't care about the immorality, as she made herself and the land unclean, committing adultery by worshiping stones and trees.
Domin fasikancin Isra’ila bai yi tasiri gare ta ba, sai ta ƙazantar da ƙasar ta kuma yi zina da dutse da kuma itace.
10 Despite all this, her unfaithful sister Judah didn't come back to me in sincerity. She only pretended to do so, declares the Lord.
Duk da wannan duka, Yahuda’yar’uwarta rashin amincin ba tă komo gare ni da dukan zuciyarta ba, sai a munafunce,” in ji Ubangiji.
11 The Lord told me, Unfaithful Israel showed that she wasn't as guilty as unfaithful Judah.
Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Isra’ila marar bangaskiya ta fi Yahuda marar aminci.
12 Now go and announce this message to the north: Come back, unfaithful Israel, declares the Lord. I won't be angry with you anymore, because I am merciful, declares the Lord. I won't be angry forever.
Ka tafi, ka yi shelar saƙon nan wajen arewa cewa, “‘Ki komo, Isra’ila marar bangaskiya,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘Ba zan ƙara yin fushi da ke ba, gama ni mai jinƙai ne,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘Ba zan yi fushi da ke har abada ba.
13 Just admit you did wrong, that you rebelled against the Lord your God. You spread yourself around, committing adultery by worshiping foreign gods under every green tree, refusing to do what I told you, declares the Lord.
Ki dai yarda da laifinki kin yi wa Ubangiji Allahnki tawaye, kin watsar da alheranki ga baƙin alloli a ƙarƙashin kowane itace mai duhuwa, ba ki kuwa yi mini biyayya ba,’” in ji Ubangiji.
14 Come back, unfaithful children, declares the Lord, because I am married to you. I will take you, one from a town and two from a family, and bring you to Zion.
“Ku komo, ku mutane marasa bangaskiya,” in ji Ubangiji, “gama ni ne mijinku. Zan ɗauke ku, ɗaya daga garuruwanku da kuma biyu daga zuriyarku in kawo ku a Sihiyona.
15 I will give you shepherds who are like me who will feed you wisely and with understanding.
Sa’an nan zan ba ku makiyaya da suke yin abin da zuciyata take so, waɗanda za su bishe ku da sani da kuma fahimi.
16 At that time as you increase in number in the country, declares the Lord, no one will be talking about the Ark of the Lord's Agreement anymore. People won't need to think about it or remember it or wonder what happened to it; and certainly won't need to make a new one.
A kwanakin, sa’ad da kuka ƙaru sosai a ƙasar,” in ji Ubangiji, “mutane ba za su ƙara yin magana a kan, ‘Akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji ba.’ Ba zai ƙara shiga zuciyarsu ko su tuna ba; ko su bukace shi, ko kuwa su yi wani irinsa ba.
17 When that time comes Jerusalem will be called the Throne of the Lord, and all the nations will come together in Jerusalem to honor the Lord. They won't be stubborn or wicked anymore.
A lokacin za su ce da Urushalima Kursiyin Ubangiji, kuma dukan al’ummai za su taru a Urushalima don su girmama sunan Ubangiji. Ba za su ƙara bin taurinkai zuciyarsu mai mugunta ba.
18 At that time the people of Judah will join with the people of Israel, and they will return from the land of the north to the country I gave to your forefathers to own.
A kwanakin gidan Yahuda zai haɗu da gidan Isra’ila, tare kuma za su zo daga ƙasar da take wajen arewa zuwa ƙasar da na ba kakanninsu gādo.
19 I said to myself, I really want you to be my children, and to give you the best country, the most beautiful place of any nation. I hoped you would call me “Father,” and never give up following me.
“Ni kaina na faɗa, “‘Da farin ciki zan ɗauke ki kamar’ya’yana maza in ba ki ƙasa mai daɗi, gādo mafi kyau da wata al’umma.’ Na zaci za ki kira ni ‘Mahaifi’ ba za ki ƙara rabuwa da bina ba.
20 But just like a wife might betray her husband, you have betrayed me, people of Israel, declares the Lord.
Amma kamar mace marar aminci ga mijinta, haka kika kasance marar aminci gare ni, ya gidan Isra’ila,” in ji Ubangiji.
21 Voices are crying on bare hilltops—the Israelites weeping and pleading for mercy, because they have gone astray and forgotten the Lord their God.
An ji kuka a filayen tuddai, kuka da roƙon mutanen Isra’ila, domin sun lalace hanyoyinsu sun kuma manta da Ubangiji Allahnsu.
22 Come back, unfaithful children, and I will heal your unfaithfulness. “We're here! Yes, we're coming back to you, because you are the Lord our God.”
“Ku komo, mutane marasa bangaskiya; zan warkar da ku daga ja da bayanku.” “I, za mu zo wurinka, gama kai ne Ubangiji Allahnmu.
23 There's no doubt that pagan worship from the hills is pure lies; the idolatry that comes from the mountains is just noise. Israel's salvation is in the Lord our God alone.
Tabbatacce hayaniyar bin gumaka a kan tuddai da duwatsu banza ne; tabbatacce a wurin Ubangiji Allahnmu ne akwai ceton Isra’ila.
24 All our lives pagan idolatry has destroyed what our fathers worked so hard for: their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters.
Daga ƙuruciyarmu allolin kunya sun cinye mu amfanin wahalar kakanninmu garkunan tumakinsu da na awakinsu, yaransu maza da mata.
25 We should lie down in shame, and have our disgrace bury us. We have sinned against the Lord our God, us and our fathers. From when we were young right up to now we have not obeyed what the Lord our God told us to do.
Bari mu kwanta mu sha kunya, bari kuma kunyarmu ta rufe mu. Mun yi wa Ubangiji Allahnmu zunubi, da mu da kakanninmu; daga ƙuruciyarmu har yă zuwa yau ba mu yi wa Ubangiji Allahnmu biyayya ba.”
