Jeremiah 2
1 And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying;
Maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
2 Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem saying—Thus saith Yahweh, I remember in thy behalf, the lovingkindness of thy youthful days, The love of thy bridal estate, —Thy coming out after me, Through the desert, Through a land, not sown:
“Tafi ka yi shela a kunnuwar Urushalima cewa, “‘Na tuna da amincin ƙuruciyarki, yadda kamar amarya kika ƙaunace ni kika kuma bi ni cikin hamada, cikin ƙasar da ba a yi shuka ba.
3 Holiness, was Israel unto Yahweh, The first-fruit of his increase, —All that devoured it, were held guilty, Calamity used to come upon them, —Declareth Yahweh.
Isra’ila tsattsarka ce ga Ubangiji, nunan fari na girbinsa; dukan waɗanda suka cinye ta an same su da laifi, masifa kuwa ta same su,’” in ji Ubangiji.
4 Hear ye the word of Yahweh O house of Jacob, And all the families of the house of Israel.
Ka saurari maganar Ubangiji, ya gidan Yaƙub, dukanku zuriyar gidan Isra’ila.
5 Thus, saith Yahweh, —What did your fathers find in me by way of perversity, that they removed far from me, —and went after vanity, and became vain?
Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Wane laifi ne kakanninku sun same ni da shi, da suka tsaya nesa da ni? Sun bi gumakan banza su kansu suka kuma zama banza da kansu.
6 Neither said they, Where is Yahweh, Who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, —Who led us Through the desert, Through a land of wastes and clefts, Through a land of parched places and of death-shade, Through a land, Along which no man had passed, And in which no son of earth dwelt?
Ba su yi tambaya, ‘Ina Ubangiji, wanda ya fitar da su daga Masar ya bishe su cikin jeji cikin hamada da kwazazzabai ƙasa mai fări da kuma duhu, ƙasar da ba kowa mai ratsa ta ba kowa kuma mai zama a cikinta?’
7 Then brought I you into a country of garden land, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof, —and yet when ye entered, then defiled ye my land, and mine inheritance, ye made an abomination
Na kawo ku zuwa ƙasa mai albarka don ku ci amfaninta da abubuwa masu yalwar da take bayarwa. Amma kuka zo kuka ƙazantar da ƙasata kuka kuma mai da gādona abin ƙyama.
8 The priests, said not Where is Yahweh? And, they who handled the law, did not acknowledge me, And the shepherds transgressed against me, —And the prophets, prophesied by Baal, And so after things that could not profit, did they walk.
Firistoci ba su yi tambaya, ‘Ina Ubangiji ba.’ Waɗanda suke amfani da doka ba su san ni ba; shugabanni suka yi mini tawaye. Annabawa suka yi annabci ta wurin Ba’al, suna bin gumakan banza.
9 Therefore yet further will I plead with you Declareth Yahweh, Yea with your children’s children, will I plead.
“Saboda haka ina sāke tuhumarku,” in ji Ubangiji. “Zan kuma tuhumi’ya’ya’ya’yanku.
10 For—pass through the coastlands of the West and see, And unto Kedar, send ye and consider diligently, —And see—whether there hath been the like of this!
Ku ƙetare zuwa tsibiran Kittim ku gani, ku aika zuwa Kedar ku duba da kyau; ku ga ko an taɓa yin wani abu haka.
11 Hath a nation, changed gods, although they were No-gods? Yet my people have changed my glory for that which could not profit!
Akwai wata al’ummar da ta canja allolinta? (Duk da haka su ba alloli ba ne sam.) Amma mutanena sun musayar da ɗaukakarsu da gumakan banza.
12 Be amazed, O ye heavens, at this, —And shudder, be dried up utterly, Urgeth Yahweh.
Ku girgiza saboda wannan, ya sammai, ku kuma razana don tsoro mai girma,” in ji Ubangiji.
13 For two wicked things, have my people committed, —Me, have they forsaken a fountain of living water, To hew out for themselves cisterns broken cisterns, that cannot hold water.
“Mutanena sun aikata zunubai guda biyu. Sun rabu da ni, ni da nake maɓulɓular ruwan rai, sun kuma haƙa tankunan ruwansu, tankuna ruwan da suka fashe da ba za su iya riƙe ruwa ba.
14 Was Israel a servant? Born in the house, was he? Wherefore hath he become a prey?
Isra’ila bawa ne, bawa ne ta wurin haihuwa? Me ya sa ya zama ganima?
15 Against him, have been roaring wild lions, They have uttered their voice, —and have made his land a desolation, His cities, have been burned, so as to have no inhabitant.
Zakoki sun yi ruri; sun yi masa ruri. Sun lalatar da ƙasarsa; an ƙone garuruwansa aka kuma watse daga ciki.
16 Even the sons of Noph and Tahpanhes have been crushing the crown of the head.
Haka ma, mutanen Memfis da Tafanes sun aske rawanin kanka
17 Is not this what thou wast certain to do for thyself, —in that thou didst forsake Yahweh thy God, when he was leading thee by the way?
Ba kai ne ba ka jawo wa kanka ba ta wurin rabuwa da Ubangiji Allahnka sa’ad da ya bi da kai a hanya?
18 Now, therefore what hast thou to do with the way to Egypt, to drink the waters of Shihor? Or what hast thou to do with the way to Assyria, to drink the waters of the River ["Euphrates"]?
To, me ya sa za ka Masar don shan ruwa daga Shihor? Kuma me ya sa za ka Assuriya don shan ruwa daga Kogi?
19 Let thy wickedness correct thee And thine apostasies, rebuke thee, Know therefore and see That it is a wicked thing and a bitter, that thou shouldest have forsaken Yahweh thy God, And that the dread of me should not have pertained to thee, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh of hosts.
Muguntarka za tă hukunta ka; jan bayanka zai tsawata maka. Sai ka lura ka kuma gane yaya mugu da kuma ɗaci suke a gare ka sa’ad da ka rabu da Ubangiji Allahnka kuma ba ka tsorona,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
20 For, in age-past time, I brake thy yoke, I tare off thy fetters, And thou saidst, I will not transgress, —Nevertheless, on every high hill, and under every green tree, wast thou lying down as an unchaste woman.
“Tun da daɗewa ka karya karkiyarka ka kuma tsintsinke sarƙoƙinka; sai ka ce, ‘Ba zan bauta maka ba!’ Tabbatacce, a kan kowane tudu mai tsayi da kuma a ƙarƙashin kowane ɗanyen itace ka kwanta kamar karuwa.
21 Yet, I, planted thee a precious vine, a wholly true seed, —How then didst thou change thyself towards me, into the degenerate plantings of the alien vine?
Na shuka ka kamar zaɓaɓɓen inabi iri mai kyau da kuma wanda za a dogara a kai. Yaya kuma ka juya kana gāba da ni ka lalace, ka zama inabin jeji?
22 For though thou wash thee with nitre, And take thee much soap, Yet is thine iniquity inscribed before me Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
Ko da yake ka wanke kanka da sabulu ka yi amfani da sabulu mai yawa, duk da haka har yanzu tabon laifinka yana nan a gabana,” in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka.
23 How canst thou say, I have not defiled myself, After the Baalim, have I not gone? See thy way, in the valley, Own what thou hast done, —A nimble young she-camel, crossing her own ways;
“Yaya za ka ce, ‘Ban ƙazantu ba; ban bi Ba’al ba’? Duba yadda ka yi a cikin kwari; ka ga abin da ka yi. Kai kamar makwaɗaciyar raƙuma ce mai zafin gudu kana gudu nan da can,
24 A wild ass, taught of the desert, In the desire of her soul, she snuffeth the wind, In her occasion, who can turn her back? None who seek her, will weary themselves, In her month, they shall find her!
kamar jakar jejin da ta saba da hamada, mai busar iska cikin son barbaranta sa’ad da take son barbara wa zai iya hana ta? Jakin da yake nemanta, ba ya bukatar wahalar da kansa; a lokacin barbara za a same ta.
25 Withhold thy foot from being unshod, And thy throat from thirst! But thou saidst Hopeless! No! for I love foreigners and after them, will I go.
Kada ka yi gudu har ƙafafunka su zama ba takalma maƙogwaronka kuma ya bushe. Amma sai ka ce, ‘Ba amfani! Ina ƙaunar baƙin alloli kuma dole in bi su.’
26 As the shame of a thief when he is found, So, hath been put to shame, the house of Israel, —They, their kings their princes, and their priests and their prophets:
“Kamar yadda akan kunyatar da ɓarawo sa’ad da aka kama shi, haka gidan Isra’ila zai sha kunya, su, sarakunansu da shugabanninsu, firistocinsu da kuma annabawansu.
27 Saying, to a tree, My father, art thou! And to a stone, Thou, didst give us birth, For they have turned unto me the back and not the face, —But in the time of their calamity, they will say, Arise, and save us!
Kuna ce wa itace, ‘Kai ne mahaifina,’ ga dutse kuma, ‘Kai ne ka haife ni.’ Sun juye mini bayansu ba fuskokinsu ba; duk da haka sa’ad da suna cikin wahala, sukan ce, ‘Zo ka cece mu!’
28 Where then are thy gods which thou hast made for thyself? Let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy calamity, —For according to the number of thy cities, have become thy gods O Judah.
To ina allolin da kuka yi wa kanku? Bari su zo in suna iya cetonku sa’ad da kuke cikin wahala! Gama kuna da alloli masu yawa kamar yadda kuke da garuruwa, ya Yahuda.
29 Wherefore, should ye plead against me, All of you, have transgressed against me Declareth Yahweh.
“Me ya sa kuke tuhumana? Dukanku kun yi mini tawaye,” in ji Ubangiji.
30 In vain, have I smitten your children, Correction, have they not accepted, —Your sword hath devoured your prophets, as a lion that destroyeth.
“A banza na hukunta mutanenku; ba su yi gyara ba. Takobinku ya cinye annabawanku kamar zaki mai jin yunwa.
31 O generation see, ye, the word of Yahweh, A desert, became I unto Israel? Or a land of thick darkness? Wherefore, have my people said, We have roved about, We will not come in any more unto thee?
“Ku na wannan zamani, ku saurari maganar Ubangiji. “Na zama wa Isra’ila hamada ne ko ƙasa mai babban duhu? Me ya sa mutanena suke cewa, ‘Muna da’yanci mu yi ta yawo; ba za mu ƙara zuwa wurinka ba’?
32 Can, a virgin, forget, her ornaments, —A bride, her girdle? Yet, my people, have forgotten me, days without number.
Budurwa za tă manta da kayan adonta amarya ta manta da kayan adon aurenta? Duk da haka mutanena sun manta da ni, kwanaki ba iyaka.
33 How thou dost make winsome thy way, to seek love! Therefore, even unto wicked women, hast thou taught thy ways.
Kuna da azanci sosai a bin masoya! Kai, ko mafiya muni cikin mata tana iya koya daga hanyoyinku.
34 Even in thy skirts, is there found, The blood of the lives of the helpless innocents, —Not in the act of breaking in, didst thou find them, yet [the blood is] on all these.
A rigunanku mutane kan sami jinin matalauta marasa laifi, ko da yake ba ku kama su suna fasawa su shiga ba. Duk da haka
35 Although thou saidst, Because I am innocent, surely hath his anger turned back from me, —Behold me! entering into judgment with thee, because thou sayest, I have not sinned!
kuna cewa, ‘Ba ni da laifi; ba ya fushi da ni.’ Amma zan zartar da hukunci a kanku domin kun ce, ‘Ban yi zunubi ba.’
36 How vigorously, thou goest about changing thy way! Even of Egypt, shalt thou be ashamed, just as thou wast ashamed of Assyria:
Don me kuke yawo da yawa haka, kuna ta canjin hanyoyinku? Masar za tă kunyata ku yadda kuka sha kunya a wurin Assuriya.
37 Even from this one, shalt thou go forth, with thy hands upon thy head, —For Yahweh hath rejected those in whom thou confidest, and thou shalt not prosper with them.
Za ku kuma bar wurin da hannuwanku a kanku, gama Ubangiji ya ƙi waɗanda kuka amince da su; ba za ku zama abin taimako a gare su ba.
