< Jeremiah 18 >
1 [the] word which to be to(wards) Jeremiah from with LORD to/for to say
Hili ndilo neno lililomjia Yeremia kutoka kwa Bwana:
2 to arise: rise and to go down house: home [the] to form: potter and there [to] to hear: hear you [obj] word my
“Shuka uende mpaka nyumba ya mfinyanzi, nami huko nitakupa ujumbe wangu.”
3 and to go down house: home [the] to form: potter (and behold he/she/it *Q(K)*) to make: [do] work upon [the] wheel
Kwa hiyo nikashuka mpaka kwenye nyumba ya mfinyanzi, nikamkuta akifinyanga kwa gurudumu lake.
4 and to ruin [the] article/utensil which he/she/it to make in/on/with clay in/on/with hand [the] to form: potter and to return: again and to make him article/utensil another like/as as which to smooth in/on/with eye: appearance [the] to form: potter to/for to make: do
Lakini chombo alichokuwa akikifinyanga kutokana na udongo kilivunjika mikononi mwake, hivyo mfinyanzi akakifanya kuwa chombo kingine, umbo jingine kama vile ilivyoonekana vyema kwake yeye.
5 and to be word LORD to(wards) me to/for to say
Kisha neno la Bwana likanijia kusema:
6 like/as to form: potter [the] this not be able to/for to make: do to/for you house: household Israel utterance LORD behold like/as clay in/on/with hand [the] to form: potter so you(m. p.) in/on/with hand my house: household Israel
“Ee nyumba ya Israeli, je, siwezi kuwafanyia kama huyu mfinyanzi afanyavyo?” asema Bwana. “Kama vile udongo ulivyo katika mikono ya mfinyanzi, ndivyo mlivyo katika mkono wangu, ee nyumba ya Israeli.
7 moment to speak: promise upon nation and upon kingdom to/for to uproot and to/for to tear and to/for to perish
Ikiwa wakati wowote nikitangaza kuwa taifa au ufalme utangʼolewa, utaangushwa na kuangamizwa,
8 and to return: turn back [the] nation [the] he/she/it from distress: evil his which to speak: speak upon him and to be sorry: relent upon [the] distress: harm which to devise: devise to/for to make: do to/for him
ikiwa lile taifa nililolionya litatubia uovu wake, ndipo nitakapokuwa na huruma, wala sitawapiga kwa maafa niliyokuwa nimewakusudia.
9 and moment to speak: promise upon nation and upon kingdom to/for to build and to/for to plant
Ikiwa wakati mwingine nitatangaza kuwa taifa ama utawala ujengwe na kuwekwa wakfu,
10 and to make: do ([the] bad: evil *Q(K)*) in/on/with eye: seeing my to/for lest to hear: hear in/on/with voice my and to be sorry: relent upon [the] welfare which to say to/for be good [obj] him
ikiwa utafanya maovu mbele zangu na hukunitii, ndipo nitakapoghairi makusudio yangu mema niliyokuwa nimeyakusudia.
11 and now to say please to(wards) man: anyone Judah and upon to dwell Jerusalem to/for to say thus to say LORD behold I to form: plan upon you distress: harm and to devise: devise upon you plot to return: return please man: anyone from way: conduct his [the] bad: evil and be good way: conduct your and deed your
“Basi kwa hiyo waambie watu wa Yuda na wale waishio Yerusalemu, ‘Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: Tazama! Ninaandaa maafa kwa ajili yenu, nami ninabuni mabaya dhidi yenu. Kwa hiyo geukeni kutoka njia zenu mbaya, kila mmoja wenu, tengenezeni njia zenu na matendo yenu.’
12 and to say to despair for after plot our to go: follow and man: anyone stubbornness heart his [the] bad: evil to make: do
Lakini wao watajibu, ‘Hakuna faida. Tutaendelea na mipango yetu wenyewe, kila mmoja wetu atafuata ukaidi wa moyo wake mbaya.’”
13 to/for so thus to say LORD to ask please in/on/with nation who? to hear: hear like/as these horror to make: do much virgin Israel
Kwa hiyo hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Ulizia miongoni mwa mataifa: Ni nani alishasikia jambo kama hili? Jambo la kutisha sana limefanywa na Bikira Israeli.
14 to leave: forsake from rock Sirion snow Lebanon if: surely yes to uproot water be a stranger cool to flow
Je, barafu ya Lebanoni iliwahi kutoweka kwenye miteremko yake ya mawe wakati wowote? Je, maji yake baridi yatokayo katika vyanzo vilivyo mbali yaliwahi kukoma kutiririka wakati wowote?
15 for to forget me people my to/for vanity: vain to offer: offer and to stumble them in/on/with way: road their path forever: antiquity to/for to go: walk path way: road not to build
Lakini watu wangu wamenisahau mimi, wanafukizia uvumba sanamu zisizofaa kitu, zilizowafanya wajikwae katika njia zao na katika mapito ya zamani. Zimewafanya wapite kwenye vichochoro na kwenye barabara ambazo hazikujengwa.
16 to/for to set: make land: country/planet their to/for horror: appalled (piping *Q(K)*) forever: enduring all to pass upon her be desolate: appalled and to wander in/on/with head his
Nchi yao itaharibiwa, itakuwa kitu cha kudharauliwa daima; wote wapitao karibu nayo watashangaa na kutikisa vichwa vyao.
17 like/as spirit: breath east to scatter them to/for face: before enemy neck and not face to see: see them in/on/with day calamity their
Kama upepo utokao mashariki, nitawatawanya mbele ya adui zao; nitawapa kisogo wala sio uso, katika siku ya maafa yao.”
18 and to say to go: come! and to devise: devise upon Jeremiah plot for not to perish instruction from priest and counsel from wise and word from prophet to go: come! and to smite him in/on/with tongue and not to listen to(wards) all word his
Wakasema, “Njooni, tutunge hila dhidi ya Yeremia; kwa kuwa kufundisha sheria kwa kuhani hakutapotea, wala shauri litokalo kwa mwenye hekima, wala neno la manabii. Hivyo njooni, tumshambulie kwa ndimi zetu na tusijali chochote asemacho.”
19 to listen [emph?] LORD to(wards) me and to hear: hear to/for voice opponent my
Nisikilize, Ee Bwana, sikia wanayosema washtaki wangu!
20 to complete underneath: instead welfare distress: evil for to pierce pit to/for soul: life my to remember to stand: stand I to/for face: before your to/for to speak: speak upon them welfare to/for to return: turn back [obj] rage your from them
Je, mema yalipwe kwa mabaya? Lakini wao wamenichimbia shimo. Kumbuka kwamba nilisimama mbele yako na kunena mema kwa ajili yao, ili wewe ugeuze hasira yako kali mbali nao.
21 to/for so to give: give [obj] son: child their to/for famine and to pour them upon hand: power sword and to be woman: wife their childless and widow and human their to be to kill death youth their to smite sword in/on/with battle
Kwa hiyo uwaache watoto wao waone njaa; uwaache wauawe kwa makali ya upanga. Wake zao wasiwe na watoto, na wawe wajane; waume wao wauawe, nao vijana wao waume wachinjwe kwa upanga vitani.
22 to hear: hear outcry from house: home their for to come (in): bring upon them band suddenly for to pierce (pit *Q(K)*) to/for to capture me and snare to hide to/for foot my
Kilio na kisikike kutoka kwenye nyumba zao ghafula uwaletapo adui dhidi yao, kwa kuwa wamechimba shimo ili kunikamata na wameitegea miguu yangu mitego.
23 and you(m. s.) LORD to know [obj] all counsel their upon me to/for death not to atone upon iniquity: crime their and sin their from to/for face: before your not to wipe (and to be *Q(K)*) to stumble to/for face: before your in/on/with time face: anger your to make: do in/on/with them
Lakini unajua, Ee Bwana, hila zao zote za kuniua. Usiyasamehe makosa yao wala usifute dhambi zao mbele za macho yako. Wao na waangamizwe mbele zako; uwashughulikie wakati wa hasira yako.
