Jeremiah 9
1 who? to give: if only! head my water and eye my fountain tears and to weep by day and night [obj] slain: killed daughter people my
Laiti kichwa changu kingekuwa chemchemi ya maji na macho yangu yangekuwa kisima cha machozi! Ningelia usiku na mchana kwa kuuawa kwa watu wangu.
2 who? to give: if only! me in/on/with wilderness lodging to journey and to leave: forsake [obj] people my and to go: went from with them for all their to commit adultery assembly to act treacherously
Laiti ningekuwa na nyumba ya kukaa wasafiri jangwani, ningewaacha watu wangu na kwenda mbali nao, kwa kuwa wote ni wazinzi, kundi la watu wadanganyifu.
3 and to tread [obj] tongue their bow their deception and not to/for faithfulness to prevail in/on/with land: country/planet for from distress: evil to(wards) distress: evil to come out: come and [obj] me not to know utterance LORD
“Huweka tayari ndimi zao kama upinde, ili kurusha uongo; wamekuwa na nguvu katika nchi lakini si katika ukweli. Wanatoka dhambi moja hadi nyingine, hawanitambui mimi,” asema Bwana.
4 man: anyone from neighbor his to keep: careful and upon all brother: male-sibling not to trust for all brother: male-sibling to assail to assail and all neighbor slander to go: went
“Jihadhari na rafiki zako; usiwaamini ndugu zako. Kwa kuwa kila ndugu ni mdanganyifu, na kila rafiki ni msingiziaji.
5 and man: anyone in/on/with neighbor his to deceive and truth: true not to speak: speak to learn: teach tongue their to speak: speak deception to pervert be weary
Rafiki humdanganya rafiki, hakuna yeyote asemaye kweli. Wamefundisha ndimi zao kudanganya, wanajichosha wenyewe katika kutenda dhambi.
6 to dwell you in/on/with midst deceit in/on/with deceit to refuse to know [obj] me utterance LORD
Unakaa katikati ya udanganyifu; katika udanganyifu wao wanakataa kunitambua mimi,” asema Bwana.
7 to/for so thus to say LORD Hosts look! I to refine them and to test them for how? to make: do from face: because daughter people my
Kwa hiyo hili ndilo asemalo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote: “Tazama, nitawasafisha na kuwajaribu, kwani ni nini kingine niwezacho kufanya kwa sababu ya dhambi ya watu wangu?
8 arrow (to slaughter *Q(K)*) tongue their deceit to speak: speak in/on/with lip his peace with neighbor his to speak: speak and in/on/with entrails: among his to set: consider ambush his
Ndimi zao ni mshale wenye sumu, hunena kwa udanganyifu. Kwa kinywa chake kila mmoja huzungumza maneno mazuri na jirani yake, lakini moyoni mwake humtegea mtego.
9 upon these not to reckon: punish in/on/with them utterance LORD if: surely no in/on/with nation which like/as this not to avenge soul: myself my
Je, nisiwaadhibu kwa ajili ya jambo hili?” asema Bwana. “Je, nisijilipizie kisasi kwa taifa kama hili?”
10 upon [the] mountain: mount to lift: raise weeping and wailing and upon habitation wilderness dirge for to kindle from without man: anyone to pass and not to hear: hear voice: sound livestock from bird [the] heaven and till animal to wander to go: went
Nitalia na kuomboleza kwa ajili ya milima na kuomboleza kuhusu malisho ya jangwani. Yamekuwa ukiwa, wala hakuna apitaye humo, milio ya ngʼombe haisikiki. Ndege wa angani wametoroka na wanyama wamekimbia.
11 and to give: if only! [obj] Jerusalem to/for heap habitation jackal and [obj] city Judah to give: if only! devastation from without to dwell
“Nitaifanya Yerusalemu lundo la magofu, makao ya mbweha; nami nitaifanya miji ya Yuda kuwa ukiwa ili asiwepo atakayeishi humo.”
12 who? [the] man [the] wise and to understand [obj] this and which to speak: speak lip LORD to(wards) him and to tell her upon what? to perish [the] land: country/planet to kindle like/as wilderness from without to pass
Ni mtu yupi aliye na hekima ya kutosha ayaelewe haya? Ni nani aliyefundishwa na Bwana awezaye kuyaeleza haya? Kwa nini nchi imeharibiwa na kufanywa ukiwa kama jangwa ambapo hakuna awezaye kupita?
13 and to say LORD upon to leave: forsake they [obj] instruction my which to give: if only! to/for face: before their and not to hear: obey in/on/with voice my and not to go: walk in/on/with her
Bwana akasema, “Ni kwa sababu wameiacha sheria yangu, niliyoiweka mbele yao: hawajaniheshimu mimi wala kufuata sheria yangu.
14 and to go: follow after stubbornness heart their and after [the] Baal which to learn: teach them father their
Badala yake wamefuata ukaidi wa mioyo yao, wamefuata Mabaali, kama vile baba zao walivyowafundisha.”
15 to/for so thus to say LORD Hosts God Israel look! I to eat them [obj] [the] people [the] this wormwood and to water: drink them water poison
Kwa hiyo, hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, Mungu wa Israeli: “Tazama, nitawafanya watu hawa wale chakula kichungu na kunywa maji yenye sumu.
16 and to scatter them in/on/with nation which not to know they(masc.) and father their and to send: depart after them [obj] [the] sword till to end: destroy I [obj] them
Nitawatawanya katika mataifa ambayo wao wala baba zao hawakuwajua, nikiwafuata kwa upanga mpaka niwe nimewaangamiza kabisa.”
17 thus to say LORD Hosts to understand and to call: call to to/for to chant and to come (in): come and to(wards) [the] wise to send: depart and to come (in): come
Hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote: “Fikiri sasa! Waite wanawake waombolezao waje, waite wale walio na ustadi kuliko wote.
18 and to hasten and to lift: raise upon us wailing and to go down eye our tears and eyelid our to flow water
Nao waje upesi na kutuombolezea, mpaka macho yetu yafurike machozi na vijito vya maji vitoke kwenye kope zetu.
19 for voice: sound wailing to hear: hear from Zion how? to ruin be ashamed much for to leave: forsake land: country/planet for to throw tabernacle our
Sauti ya kuomboleza imesikika kutoka Sayuni: ‘Tazama jinsi tulivyoangamizwa! Tazama jinsi aibu yetu ilivyo kubwa! Ni lazima tuihame nchi yetu kwa sababu nyumba zetu zimekuwa magofu.’”
20 for to hear: hear woman word LORD and to take: recieve ear your word lip his and to learn: teach daughter your wailing and woman: another neighbor her dirge
Basi, enyi wanawake, sikieni neno la Bwana; fungueni masikio yenu msikie maneno ya kinywa chake. Wafundisheni binti zenu kuomboleza; fundishaneni kila mmoja na mwenzake maombolezo.
21 for to ascend: rise death in/on/with window our to come (in): come in/on/with citadel: palace our to/for to cut: eliminate infant from outside youth from street/plaza
Mauti imeingia ndani kupitia madirishani, imeingia kwenye majumba yetu ya fahari; imewakatilia mbali watoto katika barabara na vijana waume kutoka viwanja vya miji.
22 to speak: speak thus utterance LORD and to fall: fall carcass [the] man like/as dung upon face: surface [the] land: country and like/as sheaf from after [the] to reap and nothing to gather
Sema, “Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “‘Maiti za wanaume zitalala kama mavi katika mashamba, kama malundo ya nafaka nyuma ya mvunaji, wala hakuna anayekusanya.’”
23 thus to say LORD not to boast: boast wise in/on/with wisdom his and not to boast: boast [the] mighty man in/on/with might his not to boast: boast rich in/on/with riches his
Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Mwenye hekima asijisifu katika hekima yake, au mwenye nguvu ajisifu katika nguvu zake, wala tajiri ajisifu katika utajiri wake,
24 that if: except if: except in/on/with this to boast: boast [the] to boast: boast be prudent and to know [obj] me for I LORD to make: do kindness justice and righteousness in/on/with land: country/planet for in/on/with these to delight in utterance LORD
lakini yeye ajisifuye, na ajisifu kwa sababu hili: kwamba ananifahamu na kunijua mimi, kwamba mimi ndimi Bwana, nitendaye wema, hukumu na haki duniani, kwa kuwa napendezwa na haya,” asema Bwana.
25 behold day to come (in): come utterance LORD and to reckon: punish upon all to circumcise in/on/with foreskin
“Siku zinakuja, nitakapowaadhibu wale wote ambao wametahiriwa kimwili tu, asema Bwana,
26 upon Egypt and upon Judah and upon Edom and upon son: descendant/people Ammon and upon Moab and upon all to cut side [the] to dwell in/on/with wilderness for all [the] nation uncircumcised and all house: household Israel uncircumcised heart
yaani Misri, Yuda, Edomu, Amoni, Moabu na wote wanaoishi jangwani sehemu za mbali. Kwa maana mataifa haya yote hayakutahiriwa mioyo yao, nayo nyumba yote ya Israeli haikutahiriwa.”
