Jeremiah 23
1 Yahweh declares, “Terrible things will happen to [the leaders] [MET] [of my people—those who are like] shepherds of [the people who are like] my sheep—because they have scattered my people and sent them away, and have not taken care of them.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaa iska hoogay adhijirrada idihii daaqsintayda baabbi'iya oo kala firdhiya!
2 So, this is what [I, ] Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli [people worship], say to those leaders: ‘Instead of taking care of my people and [leading them to places where they are safe, like a shepherd does for] his sheep, you have scattered them. So I will punish you for the evil things that you have done.
Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu ka leeyahay adhijirrada dadkayga daajiya, Adhigaygii waad kala firdhiseen, waadna kala erideen, oo soomana aydnaan ilaalin. Bal eega, waxaan idiin ciqaabi doonaa sharkii falimihiinna, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
3 But later I will gather those who are still alive, from the countries where I have forced them to go. I will bring them back to their own country, where they will have many children, and their number/population will increase.
Oo intii adhigayga ka hadhayna waxaan ka soo wada ururin doonaa waddammadii aan u kexeeyey oo dhan, waanan ku soo celin doonaa xeryahoodii, oo wax badan way dhali doonaan, wayna tarmi doonaan.
4 [Then] I will appoint [other] leaders for my people, leaders who will take care of them. And my people will never be afraid [DOU] of anything again, and none of them will be [like a] lost [sheep].’”
Oo waxaan iyaga u yeeli doonaa adhijirro daajiya, oo mar dambe ma ay baqi doonaan, mana ay nixi doonaan, oo innaba midna kama dhimmanaan doono.
5 Yahweh [also] says, “Some day I will appoint for you a righteous man who will be a descendant of King David. He will be a king who rules wisely. He will do what is just and right throughout the land.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eega, waxaa soo socda wakhti aan Daa'uud u kicin doono biqil xaq ah, oo boqor ayuu ahaan doonaa, wuuna liibaani doonaa, oo wuxuu dhulka ku samayn doonaa caddaalad iyo xaqnimo.
6 At that time, all the Israeli people [DOU] will be saved [from their enemies], and they will be safe. And his name will be ‘Yahweh, the one who vindicates/defends us.’”
Oo wakhtigiisa dadka Yahuudah way badbaadi doonaan, oo dadka Israa'iilna ammaan bay ku degganaan doonaan, oo magiciisa lagu magacaabi doonona waa Rabbiga Xaqnimadayada ah.
7 Yahweh [also] says that at that time, people [who are solemnly promising to do something] will no longer say, “[I will do it as surely] as Yahweh lives, who rescued the Israeli people from Egypt.”
Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, waxaa soo socda wakhti aan mar dambe la odhan doonin, Waxaa nool Rabbigii reer binu Israa'iil dalkii Masar ka soo bixiyey.
8 Instead, they will say, “[I will do it] as surely as Yahweh lives, who brought [us] Israeli people back to our own land, from the land to the northeast and from all the [other] countries to which he had exiled us.” And they will live in their own land [again].
Laakiinse waxaa la odhan doonaa, Waxaa nool Rabbigii farcankii reer binu Israa'iil ka soo bixiyey oo ka soo hor kacay dalkii woqooyi, iyo dalalkii uu u kexeeyey oo dhan, oo iyana waxay degganaan doonaan dalkooda.
9 I am very shocked because of the sacred message that Yahweh has spoken about [what will happen to] the [false] prophets; [it is as though] all my bones shake. I stagger like a man who is drunk after drinking a lot of wine.
Qalbigaygii uurkayguu ku qarracmay waana nebiyada daraaddood, lafahayga oo dhammu way wada ruxmadaan, oo waxaan la mid ahay nin sakhraan ah oo khamri ka adkaaday, waana Rabbiga iyo erayadiisa quduuska ah daraaddood.
10 The land is full of [people who commit] adultery; and [Yahweh] has cursed the land. Even the pastures in the desert are all dried up, because the people do what is evil, and [the false prophets] use their power to do things that are not just/fair.
Dalka waxaa ka buuxa dhillayo, oo habaar daraaddiis ayaa dalkii la barooranayaa. Daaqsimihii duurku way wada engegeen. Socodkoodu waa shar oo xooggooduna ma qummana.
11 Yahweh says, “[Yes, even] the priests and the prophets are ungodly; they do wicked things even in my temple.
Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Nebigii iyo wadaadkiiba nijaas bay wada yihiin, oo gurigayga ayaan xumaantoodii ka helay.
12 Therefore, [it will be as though] the paths that they walk on are slippery. [It will be as though] they are being chased in the darkness, and there they will fall down, because I will cause them to experience disasters at the time that I will punish them. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
Sidaas daraaddeed jidkoodu wuxuu u noqon doonaa sida meelo sibiibix ah oo gudcur ku dhex yaal. Iyaga waa lagu sii kaxayn doonaa oo halkaasay ku dhici doonaan, waayo, sannadda ciqaabiddooda masiibo baan ku soo dayn doonaa, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
13 [Previously] I saw that the prophets in Samaria were doing something that was wrong; they were prophesying, saying that Baal [gave them the messages that they were proclaiming], and they were deceiving my people.
Oo nebiyada Samaariyana nacasnimaan ku arkay. Waxay wax ku sii sheegeen Bacal magiciisa, oo dadkaygii reer binu Israa'iilna way qaldeen.
14 And [now] I have seen the prophets in Jerusalem doing terrible things. They commit adultery and habitually tell lies. They encourage evil people to continue to do evil things, with the result that the people do not stop sinning. Those prophets are as wicked as the people in Sodom and Gomorrah were.
Oo nebiyadii Yeruusaalemna wax aad iyo aad u xun, baan ku arkay. Way sinaystaan, oo been bay ku socdaan, oo weliba waxay sii xoogeeyaan gacmaha xumaanfalayaasha, si aan midnaba xumaantiisa uga soo noqon. Iyagu kulligood waxay iila mid noqdeen sidii Sodom, oo kuwii degganaana sidii Gomora oo kale.
15 So, this is what the Commander of the armies of angels says about those [false] prophets: “I will give those prophets bitter things to eat and poison to drink, because it is because of them that this land is filled with [people who do] wicked things.”
Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu nebiyada ka leeyahay, Bal ogaada, waxaan iyaga ku quudin doonaa dacar, oo waxaan cabsiin doonaa biyo xammeetiyeed, waayo, nijaas baa nebiyada Yeruusaalem ka soo faaftay oo waxay wada gaadhay dalka oo dhan.
16 This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “Do not pay any attention to what those [false] prophets say to you, because they are just deceiving you. They tell you about visions that they have thought/created [only] in their own minds, not about visions that I have given them.
Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Nebiyada wax idiin sii sheega hadalkooda ha maqlina, waayo, wax aan waxba ahayn way idin baraan, oo waxay ku hadlaan riyo qalbigooda ka timid oo aan afka Rabbiga ka soo bixin.
17 They habitually say to those who hate me, ‘[Yahweh says that] you will have peace.’ And they say to those who stubbornly do what they want to do, ‘Nothing bad will happen to you [because of your doing those things].’
Oo waxay had iyo goorba kuwa i quudhsada ku yidhaahdaan, Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Nabad baad helaysaan. Oo waxay mid kasta oo caasinimada qalbigiisa daba galana ku yidhaahdaan, Wax masiibo ahu innaba kugu dhici maayaan.
18 But none of them has ever been in a council [meeting] in heaven in order to listen to a message from me. None of them has paid attention to anything that [I], Yahweh, have said.
Waayo, bal yaa guddiga Rabbiga dhex istaagay inuu garto oo maqlo eraygiisa? Yaase eraygiisa dhegta u dhigay oo soo maqlay?
19 So, listen to this: I will punish them; it will be [like] a great storm; it will come down [like] a whirlwind, swirling around the heads of those wicked people.
Bal eega, duufaankii Rabbiga ayaa soo baxay, kaasoo ah cadhadiis, waana dabayl cirwareen ah, oo waxay ku dhici doontaa madaxa sharrowyada.
20 I will not stop being angry until I completely accomplish all that I have planned. In the future, you will understand [all of] this clearly.”
Rabbiga xanaaqiisu dib u noqon maayo jeeruu sameeyo oo wada oofiyo qasdiga qalbigiisa, oo ugudambaystana aad baad u garan doontaan.
21 [Yahweh also says, ] “I have not appointed those prophets, but they run [around telling people their messages]. I did not speak to them, but they [continue to] prophesy.
Anigu nebiyadaas sooma aan dirin, laakiinse way ordeen oo iyaga lama aan hadlin, laakiinse wax bay sii sheegeen.
22 If they had been in my council [meetings], they would have been able to speak messages from me, and they would have caused people to turn away from committing evil things.”
Haddii ay guddigayga dhex istaageen, de markaas dadkaygay erayadayda maqashiin lahaayeen, oo waxay iyaga ka soo celin lahaayeen jidkooda xun iyo sharka falimahoodaba.
23 Yahweh [also] says, “Am I a God who is only nearby? No, I am a God who is far away, also.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu ma waxaan ahay Ilaah dhow, oo miyaanan ahayn Ilaah fog?
24 So, no one can hide in some secret place with the result that I cannot see him. I am everywhere, in heaven and on the earth! [That is what I], Yahweh, say!
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaa cidi isku qarin kartaa meelo qarsoon oo aanan ka arki karin? Waxaa kaluu Rabbigu leeyahay, Anigu sow kama buuxo cirka iyo dhulkaba?
25 I have heard those prophets prophesy lies, saying that they are telling people messages from me. They say, ‘[Listen to me tell you] the dream that God gave me last night! I [really] had this dream!’
Waan maqlay wixii ay yidhaahdeen nebiyada magacayga beenta ku sii sheega oo yidhaahda, Waan riyooday, waan riyooday.
26 How long will they continue to do this? How long will those lying prophets continue to prophesy things that come only from their own minds?
Ilaa goormay waxanu ku sii jirayaan qalbiga nebiyada beenta sii sheega? Iyagu waa nebiyo sii sheega khiyaanada qalbigooda.
27 They think that because of the dreams that they tell to each other, people will forget me, like their ancestors forgot about me when they started to worship Baal.
Waxay u malaynayaan inay dadkayga magacayga ku illowsiiyaan riyooyinkooda midkood kastaba uu deriskiisa u sheego, sidii awowayaashoodba ay magacayga ugu illoobeen Bacal aawadiis.
28 Allow those [false] prophets to tell people their dreams, but those who have messages that [really] come from me should proclaim those messages faithfully. I, Yahweh, say [that like] straw and grain are certainly very different, [my messages and the messages from those false prophets are certainly very different].
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Nebigii riyo arkay, riyadiisa ha sheego, oo kii eraygayga maqlayna si daacad ah eraygayga ha u sheego. Buunshaha iyo sarreenka bal maxaa u kala dhexeeya?
29 [It is as though] my messages [burn] like a fire; they [strike people’s inner beings like] someone strikes a rock with a hammer and smashes it into pieces.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaan eraygaygu ahayn sida dab oo kale, iyo sida dubbe dhagaxa kala burburiya oo kale?
30 Therefore, [I, ] Yahweh say, 'I oppose all those prophets who steal messages from each other and claim that those messages came from me.
Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, anigu waxaan col ku ahay nebiyada midkood kastaba erayadayda ka xada deriskiisa.
31 I oppose those prophets who speak their own messages but claim that those messages came from me.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, col baan ku ahay nebiyada carrabkooda ku isticmaala oo yidhaahda, Saasuu Rabbigu leeyahay.
32 I oppose those prophets who falsely say that I told them something in a vision, but they are [only] telling lies that cause my people to sin. I did not send those prophets. I did not even appoint them [to be prophets]. And they have no messages that will benefit my people at all.' [That is what I, ] Yahweh, declare.”
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, col baan ku ahay kuwa wax ku sii sheega riyooyin been ah, oo intay u warramaan dadkayga ku qalda beentooda iyo faankooda aan waxtarka lahayn. Rabbigu waxaa kaluu leeyahay, Anigu iyaga ma soo dirin, oo innaba mana amrin, oo iyagu dadkan waxba kuma tari doonaan.
33 [Yahweh said to me], “If one of those prophets or priests or one of the [other] people asks you, ‘What problem has Yahweh told you about [now]?’, you must reply, ‘You are the problem! And Yahweh says that he will abandon you!’
Oo markii dadkan ama nebi ama wadaad uu ku weyddiiyo, oo uu kugu yidhaahdo, Rabbiga warkiisa culus waa maxay? Waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa, Waa war maxay ah? Waan idin xoorayaa, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
34 And if any prophet or priest or anyone [else falsely] says, ‘[I have] a prophecy from Yahweh,’ I will punish that person and his family.
Oo weliba nebigii iyo wadaadkii iyo dadkii odhan doona, Waa kan warka culus ee Rabbiga, ninkaas iyo reerkiisaba waan ciqaabi doonaa.
35 What you should continually ask each other is, ‘[When you spoke to Yahweh, ] what did he reply? What is he saying [to us]?’
Midkiin kastaaba wuxuu deriskiisa ku odhan doonaa, oo midkiin kastaaba wuxuu walaalkiis ku odhan doonaa, Muxuu Rabbigu ku jawaabay? Oo muxuu Rabbigu ku hadlay?
36 But stop saying ‘[I have] a prophecy/message from Yahweh,’ because those who say that are doing it only because they want people to accept their ideas, and by doing that they distort/change the messages that are from our God, the Commander of the armies of angels.
Oo Rabbiga warkiisa culusna mar dambe kama aad hadli doontaan, waayo, nin walba eraygiisaa war culus u noqon doona, maxaa yeelay, idinku waxaad qalloociseen erayadii Ilaaha nool oo ah Rabbiga ciidammada oo ah Ilaahayaga.
37 This is what you should ask each prophet: ‘What did Yahweh reply [when you talked to him]? What is he saying [to us]?’
Waxaad nebiga ku tidhaahdaa, Muxuu Rabbigu kuugu jawaabay? Oo muxuu Rabbigu ku hadlay?
38 If he replies, ‘[What I told you] is a prophecy/message from Yahweh,’ you should say to him, ‘You have continued to say, “[I received] a prophecy/message from Yahweh” even though I told you to not claim that you have received prophecies/messages from Yahweh.’
Laakiinse haddaad tidhaahdaan, Waa warka culus ee Rabbiga, Rabbigu wuxuu idinku leeyahay, Idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan erayadan oo ah, Waa warka culus ee Rabbiga, oo sidaas daraaddeed baan idiinku soo cid diray anigoo idinku leh, Waa inaadan odhan, Waa warka culus ee Rabbiga.
39 So I [, Yahweh, ] will get rid of you [false prophets]. I will expel you from my presence. And I will get rid of this city that I gave to you and to your ancestors.
Sidaas daraaddeed bal ogaada, Aniga qudhayda ayaa giddigiin idin illoobi doona, waanan idin xoori doonaa idinka iyo magaaladii aan idinka iyo awowayaashiinba siiyey, oo hortaydana waan idinka fogayn doonaa.
40 I will cause people to make fun of you forever. People will never forget that you were disgraced.”
Oo waxaan idinku soo dejin doonaa cay aan weligeed idinka hadhayn, iyo ceeb had iyo goorba idinku dul waaraysa, oo aan marnaba la illoobayn.
