Jeremiah 26
1 In [the] beginning of [the] reign of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah it came the word this from with Yahweh saying.
Mwanzoni mwa utawala wa Yehoyakimu mwana wa Yosia mfalme wa Yuda, neno hili lilikuja kutoka kwa Bwana:
2 Thus - he said Yahweh stand in [the] court of [the] house of Yahweh and you will speak to all [the] cities of Judah who come to bow down [the] house of Yahweh all the words which I have commanded you to speak to them may not you hold back a word.
“Hili ndilo Bwana asemalo: Simama katika ua wa nyumba ya Bwana na useme na watu wote wa miji ya Yuda wanaokuja kuabudu katika nyumba ya Bwana. Waambie kila kitu nitakachokuamuru, usipunguze neno.
3 Perhaps they will listen and they may turn back everyone from way his evil and I will repent concerning the calamity which I [am] planning to do to them because of [the] wickedness of deeds their.
Huenda watasikiliza, na kila mmoja akageuka kutoka njia yake mbaya. Kisha nitawahurumia na kuacha kuwaletea maafa niliyokuwa ninapanga kwa sababu ya maovu waliyofanya.
4 And you will say to them thus he says Yahweh if not you will listen to me to walk in law my which I have set before you.
Waambie, ‘Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: Ikiwa hamtanisikiliza na kuifuata sheria yangu ambayo nimeiweka mbele yenu,
5 To listen to [the] words of servants my the prophets whom I [have been] sending to you and rising early and sending and not you have listened.
nanyi ikiwa hamtayasikiliza maneno ya watumishi wangu manabii, ambao nimewatuma kwenu tena na tena (ijapokuwa hamkuwasikiliza),
6 And I will make the house this like Shiloh and the city (this *Q(k)*) I will make into a curse for all [the] nations of the earth.
ndipo nitaifanya nyumba hii kama Shilo na mji huu kuwa kitu cha kulaaniwa na mataifa yote ya dunia.’”
7 And they heard the priests and the prophets and all the people Jeremiah speaking the words these in [the] house of Yahweh.
Makuhani, manabii na watu wote wakamsikia Yeremia akiyasema maneno haya ndani ya nyumba ya Bwana.
8 And it was - when had finished Jeremiah to speak all that he had commanded Yahweh to speak to all the people and they seized him the priests and the prophets and all the people saying certainly you will die.
Lakini mara tu Yeremia alipomaliza kuwaambia watu kila kitu Bwana alichomwamuru kukisema, basi makuhani, manabii na watu wote walimkamata wakisema, “Ni lazima ufe!
9 Why? have you prophesied in [the] name of Yahweh saying like Shiloh it will be the house this and the city this it will be desolate from not inhabitant and it assembled all the people to Jeremiah in [the] house of Yahweh.
Kwa nini unatoa unabii katika jina la Bwana kwamba nyumba hii itakuwa kama Shilo na mji huu utakuwa ukiwa na kuachwa tupu?” Nao watu wote wakamkusanyikia na kumzunguka Yeremia ndani ya nyumba ya Bwana.
10 And they heard - [the] officials of Judah the things these and they came up from [the] house of the king [the] house of Yahweh and they sat at [the] entrance of [the] gate of Yahweh new.
Maafisa wa Yuda waliposikia kuhusu mambo haya, wakapanda kutoka jumba la kifalme, wakaenda katika nyumba ya Bwana na kushika nafasi zao kwenye ingilio la Lango Jipya la nyumba ya Bwana.
11 And they said the priests and the prophets to the officials and to all the people saying a sentence of death [belongs] to the man this for he has prophesied against the city this just as you have heard with own ears your.
Kisha makuhani na manabii wakawaambia maafisa pamoja na watu wote, “Mtu huyu anastahili ahukumiwe kifo kwa sababu ametoa unabii mbaya dhidi ya mji huu. Mmesikia kwa masikio yenu wenyewe!”
12 And he said Jeremiah to all the officials and to all the people saying Yahweh he sent me to prophesy against the house this and against the city this all the words which you have heard.
Kisha Yeremia akawaambia maafisa wote na watu wote: “Bwana amenituma kutoa unabii dhidi ya nyumba hii na mji huu mambo yote mliyoyasikia.
13 And therefore make good ways your and deeds your and listen to [the] voice of Yahweh God your so he may repent Yahweh concerning the calamity which he has spoken on you.
Sasa tengenezeni njia zenu na matendo yenu, na kumtii Bwana Mungu wenu. Ndipo Bwana atawahurumia na kuacha kuleta maafa aliyokuwa ameyatamka dhidi yenu.
14 And I here I [am] in hand your do to me according to the good and according to the right in view your.
Lakini kwa habari yangu mimi, niko mikononi mwenu, nifanyieni lolote mnaloona kuwa ni jema na la haki.
15 Only - certainly you will know that except [are] about to put to death you me for blood innocent you [are] about to put on yourselves and to the city this and to inhabitants its for in truth he has sent me Yahweh to you to speak in ears your all the words these.
Hata hivyo, jueni kwa hakika, ikiwa mtaniua, mtakuwa mmejipatia dhambi kwa damu isiyo na hatia juu yenu wenyewe, na juu ya mji huu na wote wanaoishi ndani yake, kwa maana ni kweli Bwana amenituma kwenu ili niseme maneno haya yote masikioni mwenu.”
16 And they said the officials and all the people to the priests and to the prophets not [belongs] to the man this a sentence of death for in [the] name of Yahweh God our he has spoken to us.
Kisha maafisa na watu wote wakawaambia makuhani na manabii, “Mtu huyu asihukumiwe kifo! Amesema nasi katika jina la Bwana, Mungu wetu.”
17 And they arose men from [the] elders of the land and they said to all [the] assembly of the people saying.
Baadhi ya wazee wa nchi wakasogea mbele, wakaliambia kusanyiko lote la watu,
18 (Micah *Q(K)*) the Morasthite he was prophesying in [the] days of Hezekiah [the] king of Judah and he said to all [the] people of Judah saying thus he says - Yahweh of hosts Zion a field it will be plowed and Jerusalem heaps of ruins it will be and [the] mountain of the house high places of a forest.
“Mika Mmoreshethi alitoa unabii katika siku za Hezekia mfalme wa Yuda. Akawaambia watu wote wa Yuda, ‘Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote: “‘Sayuni italimwa kama shamba, Yerusalemu itakuwa lundo la kokoto, na kilima cha Hekalu kitakuwa kichuguu kilichofunikwa na vichaka.’
19 ¿ Really did they put to death him Hezekiah [the] king of Judah and all Judah ¿ not was he fearing Yahweh and did he entreat [the] face of Yahweh and he repented Yahweh concerning the calamity which he had spoken on them and we [are] about to do an evil great on selves our.
Je, Hezekia mfalme wa Yuda au mtu mwingine yeyote katika Yuda alimhukumu Mika kufa? Je, Hezekia hakumcha Bwana na kuhitaji msaada wake? Je, Bwana hakuwahurumia na akaacha kuleta maafa aliyokuwa ametamka dhidi yao? Tunakaribia sana kujiletea maangamizo ya kutisha sisi wenyewe!”
20 And also a man he was prophesying in [the] name of Yahweh Uriah [the] son of Shemaiah from Kiriath Jearim and he prophesied on the city this and on the land this like all [the] words of Jeremiah.
(Wakati huu, Uria mwana wa Shemaya kutoka mji wa Kiriath-Yearimu alikuwa mtu mwingine aliyetoa unabii kwa jina la Bwana. Alitoa unabii juu ya mambo yaliyofanana na haya dhidi ya mji huu na nchi hii kama alivyofanya Yeremia.
21 And he heard the king Jehoiakim and all warriors his and all the officials words his and he sought the king to put to death him and he heard Uriah and he was afraid and he fled and he went Egypt.
Mfalme Yehoyakimu na wakuu wake wote na maafisa waliposikia maneno yake, mfalme alitafuta kumuua. Lakini Uria alipata habari, na kwa kuogopa akakimbilia Misri.
22 And he sent the king Jehoiakim men Egypt Elnathan [the] son of Achbor and men with him to Egypt.
Hata hivyo, Mfalme Yehoyakimu alimtuma Elnathani mwana wa Akbori huko Misri, pamoja na watu wengine ili kwenda kumkamata Uria.
23 And they brought out Uriah from Egypt and they took him to the king Jehoiakim and he struck him with the sword and he threw corpse his to [the] graves of [the] sons of the people.
Wakamrudisha Uria kutoka Misri na kumpeleka kwa Mfalme Yehoyakimu, ambaye alimuua kwa upanga, na mwili wake kutupwa kwenye eneo la makaburi ya watu wasio na cheo.)
24 Nevertheless [the] hand of Ahikam [the] son of Shaphan it was with Jeremiah to not to give him in [the] hand of the people to put to death him.
Zaidi ya hayo, Ahikamu mwana wa Shafani akamuunga mkono Yeremia, kwa hiyo hakutiwa tena mikononi mwa watu ili auawe.
