Jeremiah 50
1 Yahweh gave to [me, ] Jeremiah the prophet, a message about Babylon [city] and the country of Babylonia.
Ga maganar Ubangiji da ya yi ta wurin Irmiya annabi game da Babilon da kuma ƙasar Babiloniyawa.
2 [This is what Yahweh says]: “Proclaim [DOU] [a message] among the nations; do not withhold any of it; raise up a signal flag to announce that Babylon will be captured. [Its chief god] Marduk, [whose other name is] Bel, will be completely disgraced, and all the [other] statues and idols will be shattered.
“Ka yi shela ka kuma furta a cikin al’ummai, ka tā da tuta ka kuma furta; kada ku ɓoye kome, amma ku ce, ‘Za a ci Babilon da yaƙi; za a kunyata Bel, Marduk ya cika da tsoro. Siffofinta za su sha kunya gumakanta za su cika da tsoro.’
3 [The army of] a nation will come from the north to attack Babylon and destroy the city very thoroughly, [with the result that] no one will live there [again]. Both people and animals will run away.”
Al’umma daga arewa za tă fāɗa mata su mai da ƙasar kango. Ba wanda zai zauna a cikinta; mutane da dabbobi za su gudu.
4 “But [I, ] Yahweh, say that in the future, when that is about to happen, the people of Israel and the people of Judah will join together. They will be weeping and wanting [to worship] me, their God.
“A kwanakin nan, a wannan lokaci,” in ji Ubangiji, “mutanen Isra’ila da mutanen Yahuda gaba ɗaya za su tafi cikin hawaye su nemi Ubangiji Allahnsu.
5 They will inquire about the road to Jerusalem, [and then] they will start traveling [IDM] toward it. They will say [to each other], ‘We must return to Yahweh [again]!’ They will make an everlasting agreement with me that they will never forget.
Za su tambayi hanyar zuwa Sihiyona su kuma juya fuskokinsu wajenta. Za su zo su haɗa kansu ga Ubangiji a madawwamin alkawari da ba za a manta da shi ba.
6 My people have been [like] [MET] lost sheep. Their [leaders/rulers] have caused them [to abandon me] like [MET] shepherds who have allowed their sheep to wander in the hills and mountains. [My people are like] [MET] sheep that do not know the path to return to the sheepfold.
“Mutanena sun zama ɓatattun tumaki; makiyayansu sun bauɗar da su suka sa suna ta yawo a cikin duwatsu. Sun yi ta yawo a bisa dutse da tudu suka manta wurin hutunsu.
7 All their enemies who found them attacked them. They said, ‘We did not sin [by attacking them], because they sinned against Yahweh; he is the one who provides what they need; he is the one to whom they should have remained faithful; he is the one whom their ancestors confidently expected [to help them].’
Duk wanda ya same su ya cinye su; abokan gābansu suka ce, ‘Ba mu da laifi, gama sun yi zunubi wa Ubangiji, wurin kiwonsu na gaske, Ubangiji, abin sa zuciyar kakanninsu.’
8 [But now, I say to the leaders of my people], ‘Flee from Babylon! Leave the land of Babylonia! Be like [SIM] male goats [that go] in front of [the rest of] the flock; [lead my people back to their own land].
“Ku gudu daga Babilon; ku bar ƙasar Babiloniyawa, ku zama kamar awakin da suke bi da garke.
9 [Do that] because I am going to gather an army of great nations to the north [of Babylon]. They will join together to attack Babylon and will capture it. Their arrows will be like [SIM] skilled warriors that always hit what they aim at.
Gama zan kuta in kuma kawo a kan Babilon haɗinkan manyan al’ummai na arewa. Za su ja dāgār gāba da ita, kuma daga arewa za a ci ta da yaƙi. Kibiyoyinsu za su zama kamar na gwanayen jarumawa waɗanda ba sa dawowa hannu wofi.
10 Babylonia will be conquered, and those who conquer it will take away everything they want. [That will surely happen because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.’”
Saboda haka za a washe Babiloniyawa; dukan waɗanda suka washe ta za su ƙoshi,” in ji Ubangiji.
11 “You people [of Babylon] who (plundered/stole everything valuable from) my chosen people, now you are very happy [DOU]. You run around joyfully like [SIM] a calf in a meadow, and are happy like [SIM] male horses are happy when they are neighing.
“Saboda kuna farin ciki kuna kuma murna, ku da kuka washe gādona, domin kuna tsalle kamar karsana mai sussuka hatsi kuna kuma haniniya kamar ingarmu.
12 But [soon] your people will be very disgraced [DOU] [as a result of being conquered]. Your country will be the most insignificant nation; it will be a desert, a dry and deserted land.
Mahaifiyarku za tă sha babbar kunya; ita da ta haife ku za tă sha kunya. Za tă zama mafi ƙanƙanta na al’ummai, jeji, busasshiyar ƙasa, hamada.
13 Because [I, ] Yahweh, am angry [with you people of Babylon], I will cause your city to become completely deserted. All who pass by will be horrified and will (gasp/be shocked) because of the destruction there.
Saboda fushin Ubangiji ba za tă zauna a cikinta ba amma za tă zama kufai gaba ɗaya. Duk waɗanda suka wuce Babilon za su ji tsoro su kuma yi tsaki saboda dukan mikinta.
14 [All you nations that surround Babylon, ] prepare to attack it! Tell your archers to shoot at their enemies; shoot all of your arrows at them [LIT], because [the people/leaders of Babylon have sinned against me, ] Yahweh.
“Ku ja dāgā kewaye da Babilon, dukanku waɗanda kuke jan baka. Ku harbe ta! Kada ku rage kibiyoyi, gama ta yi zunubi ga Ubangiji.
15 Shout [war-cries] against Babylon from all sides [of the city]. [The soldiers of] Babylon will surrender; the towers and walls will be torn down. It is [I, ] Yahweh, who will be getting revenge [on the people of Babylon], [so help me to] get revenge. Do to [the people of] Babylon what they have done to others!
Ku yi kuwwa a kanta a kowane gefe! Ta miƙa wuya, hasumiyarta ta fāɗi, katangarta sun rushe. Da yake wannan sakayya ce ta Ubangiji, ku ɗauki fansa a kanta; yi mata yadda ta yi wa waɗansu.
16 Take away from Babylon those who plant [crops] and those who reap the harvests! Because of the swords carried by those who will attack [Babylon], [those people in Babylon who have come from other countries] should all run away, back to their own countries [DOU]!”
Ku datse wa Babilon mai shuka, da mai girbi lauje a lokacin girbi. Saboda takobin mai zalunci bari kowa ya koma ga mutanensa, bari kowa ya gudu zuwa ga ƙasarsa.
17 “The Israeli [people] are [like] [MET] sheep that have been scattered by lions. First [the army of] the King of Assyria defeated them. Then [the army of] King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon smashed them.
“Isra’ila garke ne da ya watse da zakoki suka kora. Na farkon da ya cinye shi sarkin Assuriya ne; na ƙarshen da ya ragargaza ƙasusuwansa Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ne.”
18 So this is what I, the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli people [worship], say: ‘Now I will punish the King of Babylon and the people of his land, like I punished the King of Assyria.
Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, “Zan hukunta sarkin Babilon da ƙasarsa yadda na hukunta sarkin Assuriya.
19 And I will bring the people of Israel back to their own land where they will eat [the food that grows] in the fields of the Carmel and Bashan [regions], and [the people in] the hilly areas of Ephraim and Gilead will have all they want to eat.
Amma zan komo da Isra’ila zuwa wurin kiwonsa zai kuwa yi kiwo a Karmel da Bashan; zai ƙosar da marmarinsa a tuddan Efraim da Gileyad.
20 At that time, there will not be people in Israel and in Judah who [are still guilty for having] sinned [DOU], because I will forgive the small group of people whom I enable to still be alive.’”
A kwanakin nan, da kuma a lokacin nan,” in ji Ubangiji, “za a yi bincike don laifin Isra’ila, amma ba za a samu ba, kuma don zunubin Yahuda, amma ba za a sami wani abu ba, gama zan gafarta wa raguwar da na rage.
21 “[So, I, Yahweh, say to the enemies of Babylonia, ]‘Attack [the people who live in] the Merathaim [region] and the people in the Pekod [region of Babylonia]. Pursue them, kill them, and completely get rid of them, as I have commanded you to do.
“Ku fāɗa wa ƙasar Meratayim da waɗanda suke zama a Fekod. Ku fafara, ku kashe kuma hallaka su sarai,” in ji Ubangiji. “Ku aikata dukan abin da na umarce ku.
22 Shout your battle cries throughout the land; shout [when you are causing] great destruction.
Hargowar yaƙi tana a ƙasar, hargowar babbar hallaka!
23 [The army of Babylon is like] [MET] the most powerful hammer on the earth, but it will be completely shattered. Babylon will be deserted among the [other] nations.’
Dubi yadda aka karya aka kuma ragargaza gudumar dukan duniya! Dubi yadda Babilon ta zama kufai a cikin al’ummai!
24 You [people of] Babylon, [listen, ] [because] I have set a trap for you; you will be caught [in that trap], because you fought against me.
Na sa miki tarko, Babilon, kika kuwa kamu kafin ki sani; aka same ki aka kuma kama ki domin kin tayar wa Ubangiji.
25 [It is as though] I have opened the place where I store my weapons, and I have brought out [all] the weapons [to use against the people with whom] I am angry. [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, have [a lot of] work to do [to punish] the people of Babylonia.
Ubangiji ya buɗe taskar makamansa ya fitar da makaman fushinsa, gama Maɗaukaki Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana da aikin da zai yi a ƙasar Babiloniyawa.
26 [So, you enemies of Babylonia, ] come from distant lands and attack it. Break open the places where they store the grain. Crush the walls of the city and the houses and pile up [the rubble like] [SIM] heaps of grain. Destroy everything; do not leave anything that is not destroyed.
Ku zo ku yi gāba da ita daga nesa. Ku buɗe rumbunanta; ku jibga ta kamar tsibin hatsi. Ku hallaka ta sarai kada ku bar mata raguwa.
27 Destroy all the [young men who are as strong as] [MET] bulls; take them to where you will slaughter them. It will be terrible for them, because it will be time for them to be punished.
Ku kashe dukan’yan bijimanta bari su gangara zuwa mayanka! Kaitonsu! Gama ranansu ta zo, lokaci ya yi da za a hukunta su.
28 Listen to the people who have fled and escaped from Babylon while they tell in Jerusalem how [I, ] Yahweh, have gotten revenge against those who destroyed my temple [in Jerusalem].
Ku saurari masu gudun hijira da masu neman mafaka daga Babilon suna furtawa a Sihiyona yadda Ubangiji Allahnmu ya ɗauki fansa, fansa domin haikalinsa.
29 Summon archers [DOU] to come to attack Babylon; surround the city in order that no one will escape. Do to [the people of] Babylon what they have done to others [DOU], because they have defied [me, ] the Holy One of the Israeli [people].
“Ku kira’yan baka a kan Babilon, dukan waɗanda suke jan baka. Ku yi sansani kewaye da ita duka; kada ku bar wani ya tsira. Ku sāka mata don ayyukanta; ku yi mata yadda ta yi. Gama ta tayar wa Ubangiji, Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila.
30 The young men of Babylon will fall in the streets; all their soldiers will be killed in one day.
Saboda haka, samarinta za su fāɗi a tituna; za a kawar da dukan sojojinta a wannan rana,” in ji Ubangiji.
31 [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, say this: ‘You arrogant/proud people, it is now the time; it is the time [DOU] when I will punish you.
“Ga shi, ina gāba da ke, ya ke mai girman kai,” in ji Ubangiji, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, “gama ranarki ta zo, lokacin da za a hukunta ki.
32 [Your land is full of] proud people, but you will stumble and fall, and no one will lift you up [again]. I will light a fire in the cities in Babylonia that will burn up everything that is nearby.’
Mai ɗaga kai za tă yi tuntuɓe ta kuma fāɗi kuma ba wanda zai taimake ta tă tashi; zan hura wuta a garuruwanta da za tă cinye duk waɗanda suke kewaye da ita.”
33 [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, also say this: ‘The people of Israel and Judah were (oppressed/treated cruelly); those who captured them guarded them carefully and would not allow them to leave [Babylon].
Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki yana cewa, “An danne mutanen Isra’ila, haka ma mutanen Yahuda. Dukan waɗanda suka kama su suna riƙe su kankan, suna kin barinsu su tafi.
34 But I am strong, and I will free them. I am the Commander of the armies of angels; I will defend my people and enable them [to return to] their land where they will have peace, but the people of Babylonia will not have peace.
Duk da haka Mai Fansarsu yana da ƙarfi; Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne sunansa. Zai kāre muradunsu gabagadi don yă kawo hutu ga ƙasarsu, amma rashin hutu ga waɗanda suke zaune a Babilon.
35 [I will send enemy soldiers carrying] swords [PRS] to strike the people of Babylonia; they will strike the officials and wise men and all the [other] people who live in Babylon.
“Akwai takobi a kan Babiloniyawa!” In ji Ubangiji “a kan waɗanda suke zama a Babilon da kuma a kan fadawanta da masu hikimarta!
36 They will strike their false prophets with swords and they will become foolish. They will strike the [strongest] warriors of Babylonia, and they will all be terrified.
Akwai takobi a kan annabawan ƙaryanta! Za su zama wawaye. Akwai takobi a kan jarumawanta! Za su cika da tsoro.
37 They will strike their horses and chariots and the foreigners who are in the army of Babylonia, and they will [all] become [as weak] as [MET] women. They will seize [MTY] all the valuable things there in Babylon and take them away.
Akwai takobi a kan dawakanta da kekunan yaƙinta da kuma dukan baƙin da suke cikin mayaƙanta! Za su zama mata. Akwai takobi a kan dukiyarta! Za a washe su.
38 [I] cause the streams to become dry. [I will do all those things] because the [entire] land [of Babylonia] is filled with idols, and those [horrible] idols have caused the people [who worship them] to become crazy.
Fări a kan ruwanta! Za su bushe ƙaf. Gama ƙasa ce ta gumaka, gumakan da za su haukace da tsoro.
39 [Soon only] hyenas and [other] wild creatures will live there; and it will be a place where owls live. People will never live there again; it will be uninhabited forever [DOU].
“Saboda haka halittun hamada da kuraye za su zauna a can, a can kuma mujiya za tă zauna. Ba za a ƙara zauna ko a yi zama a cikinta ba daga tsara zuwa tsara.
40 [I will destroy Babylon] like I destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah and the nearby towns; no one will [ever] live there [again] [DOU].
Yadda Allah ya tumɓuke Sodom da Gomorra tare da maƙwabtan garuruwansu,” in ji Ubangiji “haka ma ba wanda zai zauna a can; ba wani da zai zauna a cikinta.
41 Look! A [great] army will come from the north. A great nation far away with many kings is preparing [to attack you people of Babylon].
“Duba! Ga sojoji suna zuwa daga arewa; babbar al’umma da sarakuna masu yawa suna tahowa daga iyakokin duniya.
42 Their [army] has bows [and arrows] and spears; they are [very] cruel, and do not act mercifully [to anyone]. [As] they ride along on [their] horses, the sound of the horses’ hooves is like [SIM] the roaring of the ocean [waves]; they are riding in battle formation to attack you, you people of Babylon.
Suna riƙe da baka da māshi; mugaye ne marasa tausayi. Amonsu ya yi kamar rurin teku yayinda suke hawan dawakansu; suna zuwa kamar mutane a dāgār yaƙi don su fāɗa miki, ya Diyar Babilon.
43 The King of Babylon says, “[I] have heard reports about the enemy [approaching]; [so I am very frightened, with the result that] I am weak. I am [very fearful, and] anguished/worried, like [SIM] a woman who is about to give birth to a baby.”
Sarkin Babilon ya ji rahotanni game da su, hannunsa kuma ya yi laƙwas. Wahala ta kama shi, zafi kamar na mace mai naƙuda.
44 I, [Yahweh], will come to Babylon [suddenly] like a lion comes out of the jungle and [leaps on the sheep that are eating] the good pastureland. I will quickly chase the people of Babylonia from their land. And [then] I will appoint for them [a leader] whom I will choose; [I will do that] because there is no one [RHQ] like me who can say that what I have done is not right. No ruler can [RHQ] oppose me.
Kamar zaki mai haurawa daga kurmin Urdun zuwa wurin kiwo mai dausayi, zan fafare Babilon daga ƙasan nan da nan. Wane ne zaɓaɓɓen da zan naɗa domin wannan? Wane ne kamar ni da zai kalubalance ni? Kuma wanda makiyayi zai iya tsaya gāba da ni?”
45 Listen to what I have planned to do to the people of Babylon [city] and the rest of Babylonia: [even] the little children will be dragged away, and I will completely destroy the people [MET] who live there.
Saboda haka, ku ji abin da Ubangiji ya shirya a kan Babilon, abin da ya nufa gāba da ƙasar Babiloniyawa. Za a kwashe ƙananan garkensu a tafi; zai hallaka wurin kiwonsu sarai saboda su.
46 When Babylon is destroyed, the noise will be extremely loud, with the result that the earth will shake, and the wailing of the people will be heard by the [people of other] nations.’”
Da jin an ci Babilon da yaƙi sai duniya ta girgiza; za a ji kukanta cikin al’ummai.
