Lamentations 1
1 How is seated alone, the city that abounded with people, hath become as a widow, —She who abounded among the nations was a princess among provinces, hath come under tribute.
Yanzu birnin ya zama babu kowa a ciki, birnin da a dā yake cike da mutane! Yanzu birnin ya zama kamar gwauruwa, wadda a dā babba ce ita a cikin ƙasashe! Ita da take sarauniya a cikin larduna yanzu ta zama baiwa.
2 She, weepeth sore, in the night, and, her tear, is on her cheek, She hath none to comfort her, of all her lovers, —All her friends, have betrayed her, have become her foes.
Tana yin kuka mai zafi da dare, hawaye na gangara a kan kumatunta. A cikin masoyanta duka babu wanda ya yi mata ta’aziyya. Duk abokanta sun yashe ta; sun zama abokan gābanta.
3 Carried away captive is Judah—because of oppression, and because of great servitude, She, hath remained among the nations, hath found no place of rest, —All her pursuers, have overtaken her, between straits.
Bayan wahala da baƙin ciki, Yahuda ta tafi bauta. Ta zauna a cikin ƙasashe, ba tă samu wurin hutawa ba. Duk masu fafararta sun same ta sa’ad da take cikin matuƙar ɓacin rai.
4 The ways to Zion, are mourning, because none come to her appointed feasts, All her gates, are desolate, her priests, are sighing, —her virgins, are grieved, and, she, it is bitter for her.
Hanyoyin zuwa Sihiyona suna makoki, gama ba wanda ya zo bikin da ta shirya. Ba kowa a hanyoyin shiganta. Firistocinta suna gurnani,’yan matana kuma suna wahala, kuma tana cikin shan wahala ƙwarai.
5 Her adversaries have become chief, her foes, are at ease, for, Yahweh, hath grieved her, because of the multitude of her transgressions, —Her children, have gone into captivity, before the adversary.
Maƙiyanta sun zama shugabanninta; Abokan gābanta suna da kwanciyar rai. Ubangiji ya kawo mata ɓacin rai domin yawan zunubanta.’Ya’yanta sun tafi bauta, a ƙarƙashin maƙiyanta.
6 Thus hath gone forth from the daughter of Zion, all that adorned her, —Her princes have become like harts that have found no pasture, and have gone strengthless before the pursuer.
Diyar Sihiyona ba ta da sauran daraja.’Ya’yan sarakunanta sun zama kamar bareyi waɗanda suka rasa wurin kiwo; cikin rashin ƙarfi suka guje wa masu fafararsu.
7 Jerusalem hath remembered in the days of her humiliation and her fleeings—all her precious things, which have existed from the days of old, —Now that her people have been falling into the hand of the adversary, with none to help her, the adversaries have seen her, have mocked over her sabbath-keepings.
A cikin kwanakin da take shan wahala take kuma yawo Urushalima ta tuna da dukan dukiyar da take da ita a kwanakin dā can. Sa’ad da mutanenta suka faɗa cikin hannun abokan gābanta, ba wanda ya taimake ta. Maƙiyanta suka dube ta suka yi mata dariya don hallakar da ta auko mata.
8 Jerusalem, hath grievously sinned, For this cause, unto exile, hath she been delivered, —All who used to honour her, have despised her, for they have descried her unseemliness, yea, she herself, hath sighed, and turned back.
Urushalima ta yi zunubi ƙwarai saboda haka ta zama marar tsarki. Dukan masu martaba ta sun raina ta, gama sun ga tsiraicinta; ita ma da kanta tana nishi da ƙyar ta kuma juya baya.
9 Her impurity, is in her skirts, She hath not remembered her hereafter, Therefore hath she come down wonderfully, none to comfort her, —Behold, O Yahweh, my humiliation, that the foe, hath made himself great.
Ƙazantarta ta manne wa rigunanta; ba tă kula da nan gaba ba, fāɗuwarta kuwa babban abu ne; babu wanda zai yi mata ta’aziyya. “Duba, ya Ubangiji, ka ga wahalata, gama maƙiyi ya yi nasara.”
10 His hand, hath the adversary spread out, over all her precious things, —for she saw that, the nations, entered her sanctuary, as to whom thou didst command they should not enter—in the convocation—unto thee!
Maƙiya ya kwashe dukiyarta duka; ta ga mutanen da ba su san Allah ba sun shiga wuri mai tsarkinta waɗanda ka hana su shiga taron jama’arka.
11 All her people, are sighing, seeking bread, They have given their precious things for food, to bring back life, —Behold, O Yahweh, and discern, that I have become worthless.
Dukan mutanenta suna nishi da ƙyar suna neman burodi; sun sayar da dukiyarsu don su samu abinci don kada su mutu da yunwa. “Ubangiji, ka duba ka gani, gama an yashe ni.”
12 Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? Look around and see, whether there is pain like my pain, which is severely dealt out to me, —in that Yahweh, hath caused grief, in the day of the glow of his anger?
“Ko wannan ba wani abu ba ne a wurinku, dukanku masu wucewa? Ku duba ku gani. Ko akwai wata wahala kamar irin wadda nake sha, wadda Ubangiji ya auko mini a cikin zafin fushinsa?
13 From on high, sent he fire, among my bones, and laid them prostrate, —He spread out a net for my feet, he made me turn back, he made me desolate, all the day, faint.
“Daga sama ya aiko da wuta, ya aiko ta cikin ƙasusuwana. Ya shimfiɗa raga a ƙafafuna ya juyo da ni. Ya bar ni ni kaɗai, sumamme dukan yini.
14 The yoke of my transgressions, hath been bound, by his hand—They have intertwined themselves, have come up on my neck, it hath paralysed my strength, —My Lord, hath delivered me, into the hands of those against whom I cannot rise up.
“Ya ɗaura zunubaina a wuyana; aka naɗe su a hannuwansa. Aka rataye su a wuyana Ubangiji ya kwashe ƙarfina. Ya bashe ni ga waɗanda suka fi ni ƙarfi.
15 My Lord, hath flouted at all my magnates, in my midst, He hath called against me a host, to crush my young men, —A winepress, hath My Lord trodden, to the virgin, the daughter of Judah.
“Ubangiji ya ƙi duk mayaƙan da suke tare da ni; ya sa wata runduna ta tayar mini ta kuma tattake samarina. Ubangiji ya tattake budurwa Diyar Yahuda kamar’ya’yan inabi a wurin matsewa.
16 For these things, am, I, weeping, Mine eye, mine eye, is running down with waters, for, far from me, is any who could comfort, could bring back my life, —My sons are amazed, for strong is the foe.
“Dalilin da ya sa nake kuka ke nan idanuna kuma suna ta zubar da hawaye. Babu wani a kusa da zai yi mini ta’aziyya, ba wanda zai sabunta ruhuna.’Ya’yana sun zama fakirai domin maƙiyina ya yi nasara.”
17 Zion, hath spread forth, her hands, there is none to comfort her, Yahweh, hath given command, respecting Jacob, unto them who surround him—his adversaries, —Jerusalem, hath become as a removed woman, in their midst.
Sihiyona ta miƙa hannunta, amma ba wani da zai yi mata ta’aziyya. Ubangiji ya umarta cewa maƙwabtansa za su zama maƙiyansa; Urushalima ta zama abar ƙyama a cikinsu.
18 Righteous is Yahweh, for, against his bidding, had I rebelled, —Hear, I pray you, all ye peoples, and see my pain, My virgins and my young men, have gone into exile.
“Ubangiji mai adalci ne, duk da haka na yi tawaye da umarninsa. Ku saurara, jama’a duka; ku dubi wahalar da nake sha. Samarina da’yan matana duka sun tafi bauta.
19 I called to my lovers, they, deceived me, My priests and mine elders, in the city, have breathed their last, —for they sought them food, that they might bring back their life.
“Na kira abokaina amma sun yashe ni. Firistocina da dattawana sun hallaka a cikin birnin yayinda suke neman abinci don kada su mutu da yunwa.
20 See, O Yahweh, that I am in distress, Mine inward parts, are in ferment, My heart is turned within me, for I have obstinately rebelled, —Without, bereaveth the sword, Within, is like death,
“Duba, Ubangiji, ka ga ƙuncin da nake ciki! Ina shan azaba a raina, ba ni da kwanciyar rai a cikin zuciyata, domin na yi tawaye sosai. A waje takobi na kisa; a ciki kuma akwai mutuwa.
21 They have heard—that, sighing am, I, [and am saying] —There is none to comfort me, All my foes, —having heard of my calamity—have rejoiced, because, thou, hast done it, —thou hast brought in the day thou didst proclaim, So let them become like me.
“Mutane suna ji ina nishi da ƙyar, amma ba wanda zai yi mini ta’aziyya. Dukan maƙiyana sun ji wahalar da nake ciki; suna farin ciki da abin da ka yi. Ka kawo ranan nan da ka sanar domin su ma su zama kamar ni.
22 Let all their wickedness, come in, before thee, and deal thou severely with them, according as thou hast dealt severely with me, for all my transgressions; for many are my sighs, and, my heart, is sick.
“Bari ka ga muguntarsu duka; ka yi musu yadda ka yi mini domin dukan zunubansu. Nishina da yawa kuma zuciyata ta gaji.”
