Jeremiah 40
1 The worde which came to Ieremiah from the Lord after that Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde had let him goe from Ramath, when hee had taken him being bound in chaines among all that were caried away captiue of Ierusalem and Iudah, which were caried away captiue vnto Babel.
Sai magana ta zo wa Irmiya daga Ubangiji bayan Nebuzaradan shugaban matsaran sarki ya sake shi a Rama. Ya sami Irmiya a daure da sarƙoƙi a cikin sauran kamammu daga Urushalima da kuma Yahuda waɗanda ake kaiwa zaman bauta a Babilon.
2 And the chiefe stewarde tooke Ieremiah, and said vnto him, The Lord thy God hath pronounced this plague vpon this place.
Sa’ad da shugaban matsaran ya sami Irmiya sai ya ce masa, “Ubangiji Allahnka ya sa wannan masifa saboda wannan wuri.
3 Nowe the Lord hath brought it, and done according as he hath said: because ye haue sinned against the Lord, and haue not obeyed his voyce, therefore this thing is come vpon you.
Yanzu kuma Ubangiji ya cika shi; ya yi kamar yadda ya faɗa. Dukan wannan ya faru domin kun yi zunubi ga Ubangiji ba ku kuwa yi masa biyayya ba.
4 And nowe beholde, I loose thee this day from the chaines which were on thine handes, if it please thee to come with me into Babel, come, and I will looke well vnto thee: but if it please thee not to come with mee into Babel, tarie still: beholde, all the lande is before thee: whither it seemeth good, and conuenient for thee to goe, thither goe.
Amma yau ina’yantar da kai daga sarƙoƙin da suke a hannuwanka. Zo mu tafi Babilon, in kana so, zan kuwa lura da kai; amma in ba ka so, kada ka zo. Ga shi, dukan ƙasar tana a gabanka; ka tafi duk inda ka so.”
5 For yet he was not returned: therefore he said, Returne to Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, the sonne of Shaphan, whom the King of Babel hath made gouernour ouer all the cities of Iudah, and dwell with him among the people, or goe wheresoeuer it pleaseth thee to goe. So the chiefe stewarde gaue him vitailes and a rewarde, and let him goe.
Amma, kafin Irmiya yă juya yă tafi, Nebuzaradan ya ƙara da cewa, “Ka koma wurin Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam, ɗan Shafan, wanda sarkin Babilon ya naɗa a kan garuruwan Yahuda, ka zauna da shi a cikin mutane, ko kuwa ka tafi duk inda ka ga dama.” Sa’an nan shugaban ya ba shi abinci da kuma kyauta sai ya bar shi ya tafi.
6 Then went Ieremiah vnto Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, to Mizpah, and dwelt there with him among the people that were left in the lande.
Saboda haka Irmiya ya tafi wurin Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam, a Mizfa ya zauna tare da shi a cikin mutanen da aka bari a ƙasar.
7 Nowe when all the captaines of the hoste, which were in the fieldes, euen they and their men heard, that the King of Babel had made Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam gouernour in the land, and that he had committed vnto him, men, and women, and children, and of the poore of the lande, that were not caried away captiue to Babel,
Sa’ad da dukan shugabannin hafsoshin tare da mutanen da suke a karkara suka ji cewa sarkin Babilon ya naɗa Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam gwamna a kan ƙasar ya kuma sa shi ya lura da maza, mata da’ya’yan da suke mafi talauci a ƙasar da waɗanda ba a kwashe zuwa zaman bauta a Babilon ba,
8 Then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, euen Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and Iohanan, and Ionathan the sonnes of Kareah, and Seraiah the sonne of Tanehumeth, and the sonnes of Ephai, the Netophathite, and Iezaniah the sonne of Maachathi, they and their men.
sai suka zo wurin Gedaliya a Mizfa, Ishmayel ɗan Netaniya, Yohanan da Yonatan’ya’yan Kareya, da Serahiya ɗan Tanhumet maza,’ya’yan Efai maza, mutumin Netofa, da Yezaniya ɗan mutumin Ma’aka da mutanensu.
9 And Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, the sonne of Shaphan sware vnto them, and to their men, saying, Feare not to serue the Caldeans: dwell in the lande, and serue the King of Babel, and it shall be well with you.
Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam, ɗan Shafan, ya yi rantsuwa don yă tabbatar musu da mutanensu. Ya ce, “Kada ku ji tsoron bauta wa Babiloniyawa. Ku zauna a ƙasar ku bauta wa sarkin Babilon, zai kuma yi muku amfani.
10 As for me, Beholde, I will dwell at Mizpah to serue the Caldeans, which will come vnto vs: but you, gather you wine, and sommer fruites, and oyle, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities, that ye haue taken.
Ni kaina zan zauna a Mizfa in zama wakilinku a gaban Babiloniyawa waɗanda za su zo wurinmu, amma ku girbe ruwan inabi,’ya’yan itatuwa na kaka, da mai, ku zuba su a tulunan ajiyarku, ku kuma zauna a garuruwan da kuka ci.”
11 Likewise when all the Iewes that were in Moab, and among the Ammonites, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the King of Babel had left a remnant of Iudah, and that he had set ouer them Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan,
Sa’ad da dukan Yahudawan da suke a Mowab, Ammon, Edom da sauran ƙasashe suka ji cewa sarkin Babilon ya bar raguwa a Yahuda ya kuma naɗa Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam, ɗan Shafan gwamna a kansu,
12 Euen all the Iewes returned out of all places where they were driuen, and came to the land of Iudah to Gedaliah vnto Mizpah, and gathered wine and sommer fruites, very much.
sai suka dawo ƙasar Yahuda, wurin Gedaliya a Mizfa, daga dukan ƙasashen da suke a warwatse. Suka girbe ruwan inabi a yalwace da’ya’yan itatuwan kaka.
13 Moreouer Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste, that were in the fieldes, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
Yohanan ɗan Kareya da dukan manyan sojoji da suke a karkara suka zo wurin Gedaliya a Mizfa
14 And said vnto him, Knowest thou not that Baalis the King of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah to slay thee? But Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam beleeued them not.
suka ce masa, “Ba ka san cewa Ba’alis sarkin Ammonawa ya aiki Ishmayel ɗan Netaniya ya ɗauke ranka ba?” Amma Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam bai gaskata su ba.
15 Then Iohanan the sonne of Kareah spake to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me goe, I pray thee, and I will slay Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it. Wherefore should he kill thee, that all the Iewes, which are gathered vnto thee, shoulde be scattered, and the remnant in Iudah perish?
Sai Yohanan ɗan Kareya ya yi wa Gedaliya a Mizfa magana a asirce ya ce, “Bari in tafi in kashe Ishmayel ɗan Netaniya, ba kuwa wanda zai sani. Me zai sa ya ɗauke ranka ya watsar da dukan Yahudawan da suka taru kewaye da kai har waɗanda suka ragu na Yahuda su hallaka?”
16 But Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam said vnto Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, Thou shalt not doe this thing: for thou speakest falsely of Ishmael.
Amma Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam ya ce wa Yohanan ɗan Kareya, “Kada ka yi irin wannan abu! Abin da kake faɗa game da Ishmayel ba gaskiya ba ne.”
