Jeremiah 49
1 Of [the] people of Ammon thus he says Yahweh ¿ [do] children not [belong] to Israel or? [does] an heir not [belongs] to it why? has he dispossessed Milcom Gad and people his in cities its has it dwelt?
Kuhusu Waamoni: Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Je, Israeli hana wana? Je, hana warithi? Kwa nini basi Moleki amechukua milki ya Gadi? Kwa nini watu wake wanaishi katika miji yake?
2 Therefore here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will sound aloud against Rabbah of [the] people of Ammon a shout of battle and it will become a mound of desolation and daughters its with fire they will be kindled and it will dispossess Israel [those who] dispossessed it he says Yahweh.
Lakini siku zinakuja,” asema Bwana, “nitakapopiga kelele ya vita dhidi ya Raba mji wa Waamoni; utakuwa kilima cha magofu, navyo vijiji vinavyouzunguka vitateketezwa kwa moto. Kisha Israeli atawafukuza wale waliomfukuza,” asema Bwana.
3 Wail O Heshbon for it has been devastated Ai cry out O daughters of Rabbah gird yourselves sackcloth mourn and run to and fro among the walls for Milcom in exile he will go priests his and officials his together.
“Lia kwa huzuni, ee Heshboni, kwa kuwa Ai umeangamizwa! Pigeni kelele, enyi wakazi wa Raba! Vaeni nguo za gunia na kuomboleza, kimbieni hapa na pale ndani ya kuta, kwa kuwa Moleki atakwenda uhamishoni, yeye pamoja na makuhani na maafisa wake.
4 Why? do you boast in the valleys [is] flowing valley your O daughter apostate who trusts in treasures her who? will he come against me.
Kwa nini unajivunia mabonde yako, kujivunia mabonde yako yaliyozaa sana? Ee binti usiye mwaminifu, unayeutumainia utajiri wako na kusema, ‘Ni nani atakayenishambulia?’
5 Here I [am] about to bring on you terror [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts from all around you and you will be driven away everyone before it and not [one who] gathers together [belongs] to the fugitive.
Nitaleta hofu kuu juu yako kutoka kwa wale wote wanaokuzunguka,” asema Bwana, Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote. “Kila mmoja wenu ataondolewa, wala hakuna hata mmoja atakayekusanya wakimbizi.
6 And after thus I will turn back [the] captivity of [the] people of Ammon [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Lakini hatimaye, nitarudisha mateka wa Waamoni,” asema Bwana.
7 Of Edom thus he says Yahweh of hosts ¿ [is] there not still wisdom in Teman has it been lost? counsel from understanding [people] has it been corrupted? wisdom their.
Kuhusu Edomu: Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote: “Je, hakuna tena hekima katika Temani? Je, shauri limewapotea wenye busara? Je, hekima yao imechakaa?
8 Flee be turned back make deep to dwell O inhabitants of Dedan for [the] disaster of Esau I will bring on it a time [when] I will visit it.
Geuka na ukimbie, jifiche katika mapango marefu kabisa, wewe uishiye Dedani, kwa kuwa nitaleta maafa juu ya Esau wakati nitakapomwadhibu.
9 If grape gatherers they came to you not will they leave? gleanings if thieves in the night they destroyed sufficiency their.
Je, kama wachuma zabibu wangekuja kwako, wasingebakiza zabibu chache? Kama wezi wangekujia usiku, je, si wangeiba tu kiasi ambacho wangehitaji?
10 For I I will strip bare Esau I will uncover hiding places its and it will hide itself not it will be able it will be devastated offspring its and relatives its and neighbors its and there not [will be] it.
Lakini nitamvua Esau nguo abaki uchi, nitayafunua maficho yake, ili asiweze kujificha. Watoto wake, jamaa na majirani wataangamia, naye hatakuwepo tena.
11 Leave! fatherless your I I will preserve [them] alive and widows your on me let them rely.
Waache yatima wako; nitayalinda maisha yao. Wajane wako pia wanaweza kunitumaini mimi.”
12 For thus - he says Yahweh there! [those] who not sentence their [was] to drink the cup completely they will drink [it] and you he completely will you be exempt from punishment? not you will be exempt from punishment for certainly you will drink [it].
Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Kama wale wasiostahili kukinywea kikombe ni lazima wakinywe, kwa nini wewe usiadhibiwe? Hutakwepa kuadhibiwa, ni lazima ukinywe.
13 For by myself I swear [the] utterance of Yahweh that a waste a reproach a desolation and a curse it will become Bozrah and all cities its they will become ruins of perpetuity.
Ninaapa kwa nafsi yangu,” asema Bwana, “kwamba Bosra utakuwa magofu na kitu cha kutisha, cha aibu na cha kulaania; miji yake yote itakuwa magofu milele.”
14 A report I have heard from with Yahweh and an envoy among the nations [has been] sent gather together and come on it and rise up for battle.
Nimesikia ujumbe kutoka kwa Bwana: Mjumbe alitumwa kwa mataifa kusema, “Jikusanyeni ili kuushambulia! Inukeni kwa ajili ya vita!”
15 For here! small I will make you among the nations despised among humankind.
“Sasa nitakufanya uwe mdogo miongoni mwa mataifa, aliyedharauliwa miongoni mwa watu.
16 Horror your it has deceived you [the] arrogance of heart your O dweller in [the] clefts of the rock O occupant of [the] height[s] of a hill for you will make high like eagle nest your from there I will bring down you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Vitisho vyako na kiburi cha moyo wako vimekudanganya, wewe unayeishi katika majabali ya miamba, wewe unayedumu katika miinuko ya kilima. Ujapojenga kiota chako juu sana kama cha tai, nitakushusha chini kutoka huko,” asema Bwana.
17 And it will become Edom a horror every [one who] passes by at it he will be appalled and he may hiss on all wounds its.
“Edomu atakuwa kitu cha kuogofya; wote wapitao karibu watashangaa na kuzomea kwa sababu ya majeraha yake yote.
18 Like [the] overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and neighbors its he says Yahweh not he will dwell there anyone and not he will sojourn in it a child of humankind.
Kama vile Sodoma na Gomora zilivyoangamizwa, pamoja na miji iliyokuwa jirani nayo,” asema Bwana, “vivyo hivyo hakuna mtu yeyote atakayeishi humo. Naam, hakuna mtu yeyote atakayekaa humo.
19 There! like a lion [which] it goes up from [the] thicket[s] of the Jordan to pastureland of an ever-flowing [stream] for I will act in a moment I will cause to run it from on it and whoever [is] chosen to it I will appoint for who? [is] like me and who? will he summon me and who? this [is] a shepherd who he will stand before me.
“Kama simba anayepanda kutoka vichaka vya Yordani kuja kwenye nchi ya malisho mengi, ndivyo nitamfukuza Edomu kutoka nchi yake ghafula. Ni nani aliye mteule nitakayemweka kwa ajili ya jambo hili? Ni nani aliye kama mimi, na ni nani awezaye kunipinga? Tena ni mchungaji yupi awezaye kusimama kinyume nami?”
20 Therefore hear [the] plan of Yahweh which he has planned against Edom and purposes his which he has purposed against [the] inhabitants of Teman if not people will drag away them [the] young [ones] of the flock if not he will devastate on them pastureland their.
Kwa hiyo, sikia kile Bwana alichokipanga dhidi ya Edomu, kile alichokusudia dhidi ya wale waishio Temani: Aliye mchanga katika kundi ataburutwa mbali; yeye ataharibu kabisa malisho yao kwa sababu yao.
21 From [the] sound of falling they it will shake the earth of [the] calling out at [the] sea of reed[s] it will be heard sound its.
Kwa sauti ya anguko lao, dunia itatetemeka. Kilio chao kitasikika hadi Bahari ya Shamu.
22 There! like eagle someone will ascend and he may swoop down so he may spread out wings his over Bozrah and it will be [the] heart of [the] warriors of Edom on the day that like [the] heart of a woman in labor.
Tazama! Tai atapaa juu angani na kuruka chini kwa ghafula, akitandaza mabawa yake juu ya Bosra. Katika siku hiyo, mioyo ya mashujaa wa Edomu itakuwa kama moyo wa mwanamke katika utungu wa kuzaa.
23 Of Damascus it will be ashamed Hamath and Arpad for new[s] bad they have heard they will melt away [is] in the sea anxiety to be quiet not it will be able.
Kuhusu Dameski: “Hamathi na Arpadi imetahayarika, kwa kuwa wamesikia habari mbaya. Wamevunjika moyo na wametaabika kama bahari iliyochafuka.
24 It will be disheartened Damascus it will turn back to flee and panic - it will take hold distress and pains it will seize it like [woman] giving birth.
Dameski amedhoofika, amegeuka na kukimbia, hofu ya ghafula imemkamata sana; amepatwa na uchungu na maumivu, maumivu kama ya mwanamke katika utungu wa kuzaa.
25 How! not it has been forsaken a city of (praise *Q(K)*) [the] town of joy my.
Kwa nini mji ambao unajulikana haujaachwa, mji ambao ninaupenda?
26 Therefore they will fall young men its in open places its and all [the] men of war they will be silenced in the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh of hosts.
Hakika, vijana wake wanaume wataanguka barabarani; askari wake wote watanyamazishwa siku hiyo,” asema Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote.
27 And I will kindle a fire at [the] wall of Damascus and it will consume [the] fortresses of Ben Hadad.
“Nitatia moto kuta za Dameski; utaangamiza ngome za Ben-Hadadi.”
28 Of Kedar - and of [the] kingdoms of Hazor which he attacked (Nebuchadnezzar *Q(K)*) [the] king of Babylon thus he says Yahweh arise go up against Kedar and devastate [the] people of [the] east.
Kuhusu Kedari na falme za Hazori, ambazo Nebukadneza mfalme wa Babeli alizishambulia: Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Inuka, ushambulie Kedari na kuwaangamiza watu wa mashariki.
29 Tents their and flock[s] their people will take away tent curtains their and all equipment their and camels their they will carry off for themselves and people will call out to them terror [is] from round about.
Hema zao na makundi yao ya kondoo yatachukuliwa; vibanda vyao vitatwaliwa pamoja na mali zao zote na ngamia zao. Watu watawapigia kelele, ‘Hofu kuu iko kila upande!’
30 Flee take flight exceedingly make deep to dwell O inhabitants of Hazor [the] utterance of Yahweh that he has planned on you Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon a plan and he has purposed (on you *Q(K)*) a purpose.
“Kimbieni haraka! Kaeni kwenye mapango marefu sana, ninyi mkaao Hazori,” asema Bwana. “Nebukadneza, mfalme wa Babeli amepanga shauri baya dhidi yenu; amebuni hila dhidi yenu.
31 Arise go up against a nation at ease [which] dwells to security [the] utterance of Yahweh not a pair of gates and not a bar [belong] to it alone they dwell.
“Inuka na ulishambulie taifa lililo starehe, linaloishi kwa kujiamini,” asema Bwana, “taifa lisilo na malango wala makomeo; watu wake huishi peke yao.
32 And they will become camels their spoil and [the] abundance of livestock their plunder and I will scatter them to every wind [those who] are cut off of [the] corner and from all sides its I will bring disaster their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Ngamia wao watakuwa nyara, nayo makundi yao makubwa ya ngʼombe yatatekwa. Wale walio maeneo ya mbali nitawatawanya pande zote, nami nitaleta maafa juu yao kutoka kila upande,” asema Bwana.
33 And it will become Hazor a habitation of jackals a desolation until perpetuity not he will dwell there anyone and not he will sojourn in it a child of humankind.
“Hazori itakuwa makao ya mbweha, mahali pa ukiwa milele. Hakuna yeyote atakayeishi humo; hakuna mtu atakayekaa ndani yake.”
34 Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam at [the] beginning of [the] reign of Zedekiah [the] king of Judah saying.
Hili ndilo neno la Bwana lililomjia nabii Yeremia kuhusu Elamu, mapema katika utawala wa Sedekia mfalme wa Yuda:
35 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts here I [am] about to break [the] bow of Elam [the] beginning of strength their.
Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote asemalo: “Tazama, nitavunja upinde wa Elamu, ulio tegemeo la nguvu zao.
36 And I will bring against Elam four winds from [the] four [the] ends of the heavens and I will scatter them to all the winds these and not it will be the nation where not it will go there [the] outcasts of (Elam. *Q(K)*)
Nitaleta pepo nne dhidi ya Elamu toka pande nne za mbingu, nitawatawanya katika hizo pande nne, wala hapatakuwa na taifa ambalo watu wa Elamu waliofukuzwa hawatakwenda.
37 And I will shatter Elam (before *LAB(h)*) enemies their and before - [those who] seek life their and I will bring on them - calamity [the] burning of anger my [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will send after them the sword until have made an end of I them.
Nitamfadhaisha Elamu mbele ya adui zao, mbele yao wale wanaotafuta uhai wao; nitaleta maafa juu yao, naam, hasira yangu kali,” asema Bwana. “Nitawafuatia kwa upanga mpaka nitakapowamaliza.
38 And I will set throne my in Elam and I will destroy from there king and officials [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Nitaweka kiti changu cha enzi huko Elamu na kumwangamiza mfalme wake na maafisa wake,” asema Bwana.
39 And it will be - at [the] end of the days (I will turn back *Q(K)*) ([the] captivity of *Q(k)*) Elam [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Lakini nitarudisha mateka wa Elamu katika siku zijazo,” asema Bwana.
