Jeremiah 29
1 Now these are the wordes of the booke that Ieremiah the Prophet sent from Ierusalem vnto the residue of the Elders which were caryed away captiues, and to the Priestes, and to the Prophets, and to all the people whome Nebuchad-nezzar had caried away captiue from Ierusalem to Babel:
Ga abin da yake cikin wasiƙar annabi Irmiya da ya aika daga Urushalima zuwa ga sauran dattawan da suka ragu a cikin masu zaman bauta da kuma zuwa ga firistoci, annabawa da kuma dukan sauran mutanen da Nebukadnezzar ya kwashe zuwa zaman bauta daga Urushalima zuwa Babilon.
2 (After that Ieconiah the King, and the Queene, and the eunuches, the princes of Iudah, and of Ierusalem, and the workemen, and cunning men were departed from Ierusalem)
(Wannan ya faru bayan Sarki Yekoniya da mahaifiyar sarauniya, shugabannin fada da kuma dukan shugabannin Yahuda da Urushalima, gwanayen sana’a da masu sassaƙa suka tafi zaman bauta daga Urushalima.)
3 By the hand of Elasah the sonne of Shaphan and Gemariah the sonne of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah King of Iudah sent vnto Babel to Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel) saying,
Ya ba da wasiƙar ta hannun Eleyasa ɗan Shafan da Gemariya ɗan Hilkiya, waɗanda Zedekiya sarkin Yahuda ya aika wurin Sarki Nebukadnezzar a Babilon. Wasiƙar ta ce,
4 Thus hath the Lord of hostes the God of Israel spoken vnto all that are caryed away captiues, whome I haue caused to be caryed away captiues from Ierusalem vnto Babel:
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa ga dukan waɗanda aka kwashe zuwa zaman bauta daga Urushalima zuwa Babilon.
5 Buylde you houses to dwell in, and plant you gardens, and eate the fruites of them.
“Ku gina gidaje ku zauna; ku dasa gonaki ku kuma ci abin da suka haifar.
6 Take you wiues, and beget sonnes and daughters, and take wiues for your sonnes, and giue your daughters to husbands, that they may beare sonnes and daughters, that ye may bee increased there, and not diminished.
Ku yi aure ku kuma haifi’ya’ya maza da mata; ku nemi mata wa’ya’yanku maza, ku kuma ba da’ya’yanku mata ga aure, saboda su ma za su haifi’ya’ya maza da mata. Ku riɓaɓɓanya a can, kada ku ragu.
7 And seeke the prosperitie of the citie, whither I haue caused you to be caried away captiues, and pray vnto the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall you haue peace.
Haka kuma, ku nemi zaman salama da cin gaba a birnin da aka kai ku zaman bauta. Ku yi addu’a ga Ubangiji saboda birnin, domin in ya ci gaba, ku ma za ku ci gaba.”
8 For thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, Let not your prophets, and your southsayers that bee among you, deceiue you, neither giue eare to your dreames, which you dreame.
I, ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila yana cewa, “Kada ku bar annabawa da masu sihiri a cikinku su ruɗe ku. Kada ku saurari mafarkan da dā kuke ƙarfafa su su yi.
9 For they prophecie you a lie in my Name: I haue not sent them, saith the Lord.
Suna muku annabcin ƙarya da sunana. Ban aike su ba,” in ji Ubangiji.
10 But thus saith the Lord, That after seuentie yeeres be accomplished at Babel, I will visite you, and performe my good promise toward you, and cause you to returne to this place.
Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Sa’ad da shekaru saba’in suka cika a Babilon, zan zo muku in cika alkawarin alherina don in komo da ku zuwa wannan wuri.
11 For I knowe the thoughtes, that I haue thought towards you, saith the Lord, euen the thoughtes of peace, and not of trouble, to giue you an ende, and your hope.
Gama na san shirye-shiryen da na yi muku,” in ji Ubangiji, “shirye-shiryen cin gaba ba na cutarwa ba, shirye-shiryen ba ku sa zuciya da kuma na nan gaba.
12 Then shall you crie vnto mee, and ye shall go and pray vnto me, and I will heare you,
Sa’an nan za ku kira gare ni ku zo ku kuma yi addu’a gare ni, zan kuwa ji ku.
13 And ye shall seeke mee and finde mee, because ye shall seeke mee with all your heart.
Za ku neme ni ku kuwa same ni sa’ad da kuka neme ni da dukan zuciyarku.
14 And I wil be found of you, saith the Lord, and I will turne away your captiuitie, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places, whither I haue cast you, saith the Lord, and will bring you againe vnto the place, whence I caused you to be caryed away captiue.
Za ku same ni,” in ji Ubangiji, “zan kuma komo da ku daga bauta. Zan tattaro ku daga dukan al’ummai in sa ku inda na kore ku,” in ji Ubangiji, “zan kuma komo da ku zuwa wurin da na kwashe ku zuwa zaman bauta.”
15 Because ye haue sayd, The Lord hath raised vs vp Prophets in Babel,
Za ku iya ce, “Ubangiji ya tā da annabawa saboda mu a Babilon.”
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord of the King, that sitteth vpon the throne of Dauid, and of all the people, that dwell in this citie, your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captiuitie:
Amma ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da sarki, wanda yake zaune a kursiyin Dawuda da kuma dukan mutanen da suka ragu a wannan birni,’yan’uwanku waɗanda ba su tafi tare da ku zuwa zaman bauta ba.
17 Euen thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Beholde, I will sende vpon them the sworde, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figges, that cannot bee eaten, they are so naughtie.
I, ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki yana cewa, “Zan aika da takobi, yunwa da annoba a kansu zan kuma sa su zama kamar ɓaure marar amfani da suka yi munin da ba a iya ci.
18 And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence: and I will make them a terror to all kingdomes of the earth, and a curse, and astonishment and an hissing, and a reproche among all the nations whither I haue cast them,
Zan fafare su da takobi, yunwa da annoba zan kuma sa su zama abin ƙyama ga dukan mulkokin duniya da kuma abin la’ana da abin bantsoro, abin dariya da abin reni, a cikin dukan al’umman da aka kore su zuwa.
19 Because they haue not hearde my words, saith the Lord, which I sent vnto them by my seruantes the Prophetes, rising vp earely, and sending them, but yee woulde not heare, saith the Lord.
Gama ba su saurari maganata ba,” in ji Ubangiji, “maganar da na aika gare su sau da sau ta bayina annabawa. Ku kuma masu zaman bauta ba ku saurara ba,” in ji Ubangiji.
20 Heare ye therefore the word of the Lord all ye of the captiuitie, whome I haue sent from Ierusalem to Babel.
Saboda haka, ku ji maganar Ubangiji, dukanku masu zaman bauta waɗanda na aika daga Urushalima zuwa Babilon.
21 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, of Ahab the sonne of Kolaiah, and of Zedekiah the sonne of Maaseiah, which prophecie lyes vnto you in my Name, Beholde, I will deliuer them into the hande of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, and he shall slay them before your eyes.
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa game da Ahab ɗan Kolahiya da Zedekiya ɗan Ma’asehiya, waɗanda suke muku annabcin ƙarya da sunana. “Zan ba da su ga Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon, zai kuwa kashe su a gaban idanunku.
22 And al they of the captiuitie of Iudah, that are in Babel, shall take vp this curse against them, and say, The Lord make thee like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whome the King of Babel burnt in the fire,
Saboda su, dukan masu zaman bauta daga Yahuda waɗanda suke a Babilon za su yi amfani da wannan la’ana cewa, ‘Ubangiji ka yi da mu kamar Zedekiya da Ahab waɗanda sarkin Babilon ya ƙone da wuta.’
23 Because they haue committed vilenie in Israel, and haue committed adulterie with their neighbours wiues, and haue spoken lying words in my Name, which I haue not commanded them, euen I knowe it, and testifie it, saith the Lord.
Gama sun aikata munanan abubuwa a Isra’ila; sun yi zina da matan maƙwabtansu kuma da sunana suka yi ƙarya, waɗanda ban faɗa musu su yi ba. Na san wannan kuma ni shaida ne ga haka,” in ji Ubangiji.
24 Thou shalt also speake to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,
Faɗa wa Shemahiya mutumin Nehelam,
25 Thus speaketh the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent letters in thy Name vnto all the people, that are at Ierusalem, and to Zephaniah the sonne of Maaseiah the Priest, and to all the Priests, saying,
“Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa ka aika da wasiƙu da sunanka ga dukan mutane a Urushalima, zuwa ga Zefaniya ɗan Ma’asehiya firist da kuma ga sauran firistoci. Ka ce wa Zefaniya,
26 The Lord hath made thee Priest for Iehoiada the Priest, that yee should bee officers in the House of the Lord, for euery man that raueth and maketh himselfe a Prophet, to put him in prison and in the stockes.
‘Ubangiji ya naɗa ka firist a wurin Yehohiyada don ka lura da gidan Ubangiji; ya kamata ka sa kowane mahaukaci wanda yake yi kamar annabi cikin turu da kuma a kangi.
27 Nowe therefore why hast not thou reproued Ieremiah of Anathoth, which prophecieth vnto you?
To, me ya sa ba ka tsawata wa Irmiya daga Anatot, wanda yana ɗauka kansa annabi a cikinku ba?
28 For, for this cause hee sent vnto vs in Babel, saying, This captiuitie is long: buyld houses to dwell in, and plant gardens, and eate the fruites of them.
Ya aiko mana da saƙonsa a Babilon cewa zai ɗauki lokaci ƙwarai. Saboda haka ku gina gidaje ku zauna; ku dasa gonaki ku kuma ci abin da suka haifar.’”
29 And Zephaniah the Priest red this letter in the eares of Ieremiah the Prophet.
Zefaniya firist kuwa, ya karanta wasiƙar annabi Irmiya.
30 Then came the worde of the Lord vnto Ieremiah, saying,
Sa’an nan maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Irmiya cewa,
31 Send to all them of the captiuitie, saying, Thus saith the Lord of Shemaiah the Nehelamite, Because that Shemaiah hath prophecied vnto you, and I sent him not, and hee caused you to trust in a lye,
“Ka aika da wannan saƙo zuwa ga dukan masu zaman bauta cewa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da Shemahiya, mutumin Nehelam. Domin Shemahiya ya yi muku annabci, ko da yake ban aike shi ba, ya kuma sa kuka gaskata ƙarya,
32 Therefore thus saieth the Lord, Behold, I wil visite Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seede: hee shall not haue a man to dwell among this people, neither shall he beholde the good, that I will doe for my people, sayth the Lord, because he hath spoken rebelliously against the Lord.
ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, tabbatacce zan hukunta Shemahiya mutumin Nehelam da zuriyarsa. Ba zai kasance da wani da ya rage a cikin wannan mutane ba, ba kuwa zai ga abubuwa alherin da zan yi wa mutanena ba, in ji Ubangiji, domin ya yi wa’azin tawaye a kaina.’”
