Jeremiah 48
1 Of Moab thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel woe! to Nebo for it will be devastated it will be put to shame it will be captured Kiriathaim it will be put to shame the stronghold and it will be shattered.
Kuhusu Moabu: Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, Mungu wa Israeli, asemalo: “Ole wake Nebo, kwa maana utaharibiwa. Kiriathaimu utaaibishwa na kutekwa; Misgabu itaaibishwa na kuvunjavunjwa.
2 There not again [will be] [the] praise of Moab in Heshbon people have planned on it calamity come and let us cut off it from a nation also O Madmen you will be silent after you it will go [the] sword.
Moabu haitasifiwa tena; huko Heshboni watu watafanya shauri baya la anguko lake: ‘Njooni na tuangamize taifa lile.’ Wewe nawe, ee Madmena, utanyamazishwa; upanga utakufuatia.
3 [the] sound of A cry of distress from Horonaim devastation and destruction great.
Sikiliza kilio kutoka Horonaimu, kilio cha maangamizi makuu na uharibifu.
4 It will be broken Moab they will make heard a cry of distress (servants its. *Q(K)*)
Moabu utavunjwa, wadogo wake watapiga kelele.
5 For [the] ascent of (Luhith *Q(K)*) with weeping someone will ascend weeping for on [the] descent of Horonaim [the] distresses of [the] crys of destruction people will hear.
Wanapanda kwenda njia ya kuelekea Luhithi, wakilia kwa uchungu wanapotembea, kwenye njia inayoshuka kwenda Horonaimu, kilio cha uchungu kwa ajili ya uharibifu kinasikika.
6 Flee save life your so they may be like a juniper bush in the wilderness.
Kimbieni! Okoeni maisha yenu, kuweni kama kichaka jangwani.
7 For because trusting you in deeds your and in treasures your also you you will be captured and he will go out (Chemosh *Q(k)*) in exile priests his and officials his (together. *Q(k)*)
Kwa kuwa mmetumainia matendo yenu na mali zenu, ninyi pia mtachukuliwa mateka, naye Kemoshi atakwenda uhamishoni, pamoja na makuhani wake na maafisa wake.
8 So he may come a destroyer to every city and a city not it will escape and it will be destroyed the valley and it will be destroyed the plain which he has spoken Yahweh.
Mharabu atakuja dhidi ya kila mji, wala hakuna mji utakaookoka. Bonde litaangamizwa na uwanda utaharibiwa, kwa sababu Bwana amesema.
9 Give salt to Moab for [surely] flying it will go out and cities its a waste they will become from not inhabitant in them.
Wekeni chumvi kwa ajili ya Moabu, kwa kuwa ataangamizwa; miji yake itakuwa ukiwa, pasipo kuwa na mtu atakayeishi ndani yake.
10 [is] cursed [one who] does [the] work of Yahweh slackness and [is] cursed [one who] withholds sword his from blood.
“Alaaniwe yeye afanyaye kazi ya Bwana kwa hila! Alaaniwe yeye auzuiaye upanga wake usimwage damu!
11 It has been at ease Moab since youth its and [has been] undisturbed it to lees its and not it has been poured from vessel to vessel and in exile not it has gone there-fore it has remained taste its in it and aroma its not it has been changed.
“Moabu amestarehe tangu ujana wake, kama divai iliyoachwa kwenye machujo yake, haikumiminwa kutoka chombo kimoja hadi kingine, hajaenda uhamishoni. Kwa hiyo ana ladha ile ile kama aliyokuwa nayo, nayo harufu yake haijabadilika.
12 Therefore here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will send to it [those who] tip and they will tip it and vessels its they will empty out and jars their they will smash.
Lakini siku zinakuja,” asema Bwana, “nitakapotuma watu wamiminao kutoka kwenye magudulia, nao watamimina; wataacha magudulia yake yakiwa matupu na kuvunja mitungi yake.
13 And it will be ashamed Moab from Chemosh just as they were ashamed [the] house of Israel from Beth-el trust their.
Kisha Moabu atamwonea aibu mungu wao Kemoshi, kama vile nyumba ya Israeli walivyoona aibu walipotegemea mungu wa Betheli.
14 How? will you say [are] warriors we and men of strength for battle.
“Mwawezaje kusema, ‘Sisi ni mashujaa, watu jasiri katika vita’?
15 It will be devastated Moab and cities its he will go up and [the] choicest of young men its they will go down to the slaughter [the] utterance of the king [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.
Moabu ataangamizwa na miji yake itavamiwa, vijana wake waume walio bora sana watachinjwa,” asema Mfalme, ambaye jina lake ni Bwana Mungu Mwenye Nguvu Zote.
16 [is] near [the] disaster of Moab to coming and calamity its it will hasten exceedingly.
“Kuanguka kwa Moabu kumekaribia, janga kubwa litamjia kwa haraka.
17 Show sympathy to it O all around it and O all [those who] know name its say how! it is broken a staff of strength a staff of splendor.
Ombolezeni kwa ajili yake, ninyi nyote mnaomzunguka, ninyi nyote mnaojua sifa zake, semeni, ‘Tazama jinsi ilivyovunjika fimbo ya kifalme yenye nguvu, tazama jinsi ilivyovunjika fimbo iliyotukuka!’
18 Come down from honor (and sit *Q(K)*) in thirst O inhabitant[s] of [the] daughter of Dibon for [the] destroyer of Moab he will come up on you he will ruin strongholds your.
“Shuka kutoka fahari yako na uketi katika ardhi iliyokauka, enyi wenyeji wa Binti wa Diboni, kwa maana yeye aangamizaye Moabu atakuja dhidi yako, na kuangamiza miji yako iliyozungushiwa maboma.
19 To [the] road stand and watch O inhabitant[s] of Aroer ask [a man who] flees and [a woman who] escapes say what? has it happened.
Simama kando ya barabara na utazame, wewe unayeishi Aroeri. Muulize mwanaume anayekimbia na mwanamke anayetoroka, waulize, ‘Kumetokea nini?’
20 It has been put to shame Moab for it has been shattered (wail and cry out *Q(K)*) declare at [the] Arnon that it has been devastated Moab.
Moabu amefedheheshwa, kwa kuwa amevunjavunjwa. Lieni kwa huzuni na kupiga kelele! Tangazeni kando ya Arnoni kwamba Moabu ameangamizwa.
21 And judgment it will come to [the] land of the plain to Holon and to Jahaz and on (Mephaath. *Q(K)*)
Hukumu imefika kwenye uwanda wa juu: katika Holoni, Yahasa na Mefaathi,
22 And on Dibon and on Nebo and on Beth Diblathaim.
katika Diboni, Nebo na Beth-Diblathaimu,
23 And on Kiriathaim and on Beth Gamul and on Beth Meon.
katika Kiriathaimu, Beth-Gamuli na Beth-Meoni,
24 And on Kerioth and on Bozrah and on all [the] cities of [the] land of Moab far and near.
katika Keriothi na Bosra; kwa miji yote ya Moabu, iliyoko mbali na karibu.
25 It will be cut off [the] horn of Moab and arm its it will be broken [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Pembe ya Moabu imekatwa, mkono wake umevunjwa,” asema Bwana.
26 Make drunk it for on Yahweh it has magnified itself and it will splash Moab in vomit its and it will become a laughing stock also it.
“Mlevye, kwa kuwa amemdharau Bwana. Moabu na agaegae katika matapishi yake, yeye na awe kitu cha dhihaka.
27 And? - not the laughing stock was it to you Israel or? among thieves (was it found *Q(K)*) for as often as words your in it you shook yourself.
Je, Israeli hakuwa kitu chako cha kudhihakiwa? Je, alikamatwa miongoni mwa wezi, kiasi cha kutikisa kichwa chako kwa dharau kila mara unapozungumza juu yake?
28 Abandon cities and dwell among the rock[s] O inhabitants of Moab and be like a dove [which] it makes a nest on [the] sides of [the] mouth of a ravine.
Ondokeni kwenye miji yenu, mkaishi katikati ya miamba, enyi mnaoishi Moabu. Kuweni kama huwa ambaye hutengeneza kiota chake kwenye mdomo wa pango.
29 We have heard [the] pride of Moab proud very haughtiness its and pride its and boastfulness its and [the] loftiness of heart its.
“Tumesikia juu ya kiburi cha Moabu: kutakabari kwake kwa kiburi na majivuno, kiburi chake na ufidhuli wake, na kujivuna kwa moyo wake.
30 I I know [the] utterance of Yahweh arrogance its and [it is] not right empty boasts its not right they have accomplished.
Ninaujua ujeuri wake, lakini ni bure,” asema Bwana, “nako kujisifu kwake hakumsaidii chochote.
31 There-fore on Moab I will wail and for Moab all of it I will cry out concerning [the] people of Kir Heres he will groan.
Kwa hiyo namlilia Moabu, kwa ajili ya Moabu yote ninalia, ninaomboleza kwa ajili ya watu wa Kir-Haresethi.
32 More than [the] weeping of Jazer I will weep for you O vine of Sibmah tendrils your they passed over [the] sea to [the] sea of Jazer they reached on summer fruit your and on grape harvest your a destroyer he has fallen.
Ninalia machozi kwa ajili yenu, kama Yazeri aliavyo, enyi mizabibu ya Sibma. Matawi yako yameenea hadi baharini; yamefika hadi bahari ya Yazeri. Mharabu ameyaangukia matunda yako yaliyoiva na mizabibu yako iliyoiva.
33 And it has been removed joy and rejoicing from [the] garden-land and from [the] land of Moab and wine from wine-presses I have made to cease not anyone will tread shouting shouting not shouting.
Shangwe na furaha vimetoweka kutoka bustani na mashamba ya Moabu. Nimekomesha kutiririka kwa divai kutoka mashinikizo; hakuna hata mmoja ayakanyagaye kwa kelele za shangwe. Ingawa kuna kelele, sio kelele za shangwe.
34 From [the] cry of distress of Heshbon to Elealeh to Jahaz people will give voice their from Zoar to Horonaim Eglath Shelishiyah for also [the] waters of Nimrim wastes they will become.
“Sauti ya kilio chao inapanda kutoka Heshboni hadi Eleale na Yahazi, kutoka Soari hadi Horonaimu na Eglath-Shelishiya, kwa kuwa hata maji ya Nimrimu yamekauka.
35 And I will put an end to of Moab [the] utterance of Yahweh [one who] offers up a high place and [one who] makes smoke to gods his.
Nitakomesha wale wote katika Moabu watoao sadaka mahali pa juu, na kufukiza uvumba kwa miungu yao,” asema Bwana.
36 There-fore heart my for Moab like flutes it will groan and heart my concerning [the] people of Kir Heres like flutes it will groan there-fore [the] wealth [which] he acquired they will be lost.
“Kwa hiyo moyo wangu unaomboleza kwa ajili ya Moabu kama filimbi; unaomboleza kama filimbi kwa ajili ya watu wa Kir-Haresethi. Utajiri waliojipatia umetoweka.
37 For every head [will be] baldness and every beard [will be] clipped [will be] on all hands cuts and [will be] on loins sackcloth.
Kila kichwa kimenyolewa na kila mwenye ndevu zimekatwa; kila mkono umekatwa na kila kiuno kimefunikwa kwa nguo ya gunia.
38 [will be] on All [the] roofs of Moab and in open places its all of it wailing for I will break Moab like a vessel [which] there not [is] pleasure in it [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Juu ya mapaa yote katika Moabu na katika viwanja hakuna kitu chochote isipokuwa maombolezo, kwa kuwa nimemvunja Moabu kama gudulia ambalo hakuna mtu yeyote anayelitaka,” asema Bwana.
39 How! it has been shattered they will wail how! it has turned a neck Moab it will be ashamed and it will become Moab a laughing stock and an object of terror to all around it.
“Tazama jinsi alivyovunjikavunjika! Jinsi wanavyolia kwa huzuni! Tazama jinsi Moabu anavyogeuka kwa aibu! Moabu amekuwa kitu cha kudhihakiwa, kitu cha kutisha kwa wale wote wanaomzunguka.”
40 For thus he says Yahweh there! like eagle someone will swoop down and he will spread out wings his against Moab.
Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Tazama! Tai anashuka chini, akitanda mabawa yake juu ya Moabu.
41 It will be captured Kerioth and the strongholds it will be seized and it will be [the] heart of [the] warriors of Moab on the day that like [the] heart of a woman in labor.
Miji itatekwa na ngome zake zitatwaliwa. Katika siku hiyo, mioyo ya mashujaa wa Moabu itakuwa kama moyo wa mwanamke katika utungu wa kuzaa.
42 And it will be destroyed Moab from a people for on Yahweh it has magnified itself.
Moabu ataangamizwa kama taifa kwa sababu amemdharau Bwana.
43 Terror and pit and snare [will be] on you O inhabitant of Moab [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Hofu kuu, shimo na mtego vinawangojea, enyi watu wa Moabu,” asema Bwana.
44 (The [one who] flees *Q(K)*) from before the terror he will fall into the pit and the [one who] climbs up from the pit he will be caught in snare for I will bring to it to Moab [the] year of punishment their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Yeyote atakayeikimbia hiyo hofu kuu ataanguka ndani ya shimo, yeyote atakayepanda kutoka shimoni, atanaswa katika mtego, kwa sababu nitaletea Moabu mwaka wa adhabu yake,” asema Bwana.
45 In [the] shadow of Heshbon they will stand from strength [those who] flee for a fire it will go forth from Heshbon and a flame from between Sihon and it consumed [the] forehead of Moab and [the] scalp of [the] sons of uproar.
“Katika kivuli cha Heshboni, wakimbizi wamesimama pasipo msaada, kwa kuwa moto umezimika huko Heshboni, mwali wa moto kutoka katikati ya Sihoni; unaunguza vipaji vya nyuso za Moabu, mafuvu yao wenye kujivuna kwa kelele.
46 Woe! to you O Moab it will perish [the] people of Chemosh for they will be taken sons your in captivity and daughters your in captivity.
Ole wako, ee Moabu! Watu wa Kemoshi wameangamizwa; wana wako wamepelekwa uhamishoni na binti zako wamechukuliwa mateka.
47 And I will turn back [the] captivity of Moab at [the] end of the days [the] utterance of Yahweh [is] to here [the] judgment of Moab.
“Lakini nitarudisha mateka wa Moabu, katika siku zijazo,” asema Bwana. Huu ndio mwisho wa hukumu juu ya Moabu.
