< Jeremiah 21 >
1 The word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh when King Zedekiah sent Pashhur son of Malkijah and Zephaniah son of Maaseiah the priest to him, and they said,
Kanu waa eraygii Yeremyaah xagga Rabbiga uga yimid, markii Boqor Sidqiyaah uu isaga u soo diray Fashxuur ina Malkiiyaah, iyo Safanyaah ina Macaseeyaah oo wadaadka ahaa, isagoo leh,
2 “Seek advice from Yahweh on our behalf, for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is making war on us. Perhaps Yahweh will do miracles for us, as in times past, and will make him withdraw from us.”
Waan ku baryayaaye, bal Rabbiga wax noo weyddii, waayo, Nebukadresar oo ah boqorkii Baabuloon ayaa nala diriraya. Waxaa suurtowda in Rabbigu nagula macaamiloodo shuqulladiisa yaabka badan oo dhan, si uu cadowgu nooga noqdo.
3 So Jeremiah said to them, “This is what you must say to Zedekiah,
Markaas Yeremyaah wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Waxaad Sidqiyaah ku tidhaahdaan:
4 'Yahweh, God of Israel, says this: See, I am about to turn back the instruments of war that are in your hand, with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and the Chaldeans who are closing you in from outside the walls! For I will gather them in the middle of this city.
Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogow, dib baan u celin doonaa hubka dagaalka ee gacantiinna ku jira ee aad kula diriraysaan boqorka Baabuloon, iyo reer Kaldayiinka derbiyada dibaddooda idinku hareeraynaya, oo iyagaan magaaladan dhexdeeda ku soo ururin doonaa.
5 Then I myself will fight against you with a raised hand and a strong arm, and with wrath, fury, and great anger.
Oo aniga qudhaydu waxaan idinkula diriri doonaa gacan fidsan iyo cudud xoog badan, anoo xanaaqsan oo cadhaysan oo aad u dhirifsan.
6 For I will attack the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast. They will die in a severe plague.
Oo wax baan ku dhufan doonaa waxa magaaladan deggan, dad iyo duunyaba, oo waxay ku le'an doonaan belaayo weyn.
7 After this—this is Yahweh's declaration—Zedekiah king of Judah, his servants, the people, and whoever remains in this city after the plague, the sword, and the famine, I will give them all into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those seeking their life. Then he will kill them with the edge of the sword. He will not pity them, spare them, or have compassion.'
Oo waxaa Rabbigu leeyahay, Dabadeed Sidqiyaah oo ah boqorka dalka Yahuudah, iyo addoommadiisa, iyo dadka oo ah intii magaaladan ku hadhay oo belaayada, iyo seefta, iyo abaartaba ka caymatay, waxaan gelin doonaa gacanta Nebukadresar oo ah boqorka Baabuloon, iyo gacanta cadaawayaashooda, iyo gacanta kuwa naftooda doondoonaya, oo isna seef buu ku layn doonaa, oo innaba uma tudhi doono, umana nixi doono, umana naxariisan doono.
8 Then to this people you must say, 'Yahweh says this: See, I am about to place before you the way of life and the way of death.
Oo dadkanna waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, waxaan idin hor dhigayaa jidka nolosha iyo jidka geerida.
9 Anyone staying in this city will die by the sword, famine, and plague; but anyone going out and falling on his knees before the Chaldeans who have closed in against you will live. He will escape with his life.
Kii magaaladan sii joogaaba wuxuu ku dhiman doonaa seef, iyo abaar, iyo belaayo, laakiinse kii baxa oo reer Kaldayiinka idin hareeraynaya u galaa wuu noolaan doonaa, oo naftiisu waxay isaga u ahaan doontaa sida booli oo kale.
10 For I have set my face against this city in order to bring disaster and not to bring good—this is Yahweh's declaration. It has been given into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will burn it.'
Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Wejigaygaan magaaladan ugu jeediyey inaan masiibo ku sameeyo ee ma aha wanaag. Waxay gacanta u geli doontaa boqorka Baabuloon, oo isna dab buu ku gubi doonaa.
11 Concerning the house of the king of Judah, listen to the word of Yahweh.
Erayga Rabbiga ee ku saabsan reerka boqorka dalka Yahuudah maqla.
12 House of David, Yahweh says, 'Bring about justice in the morning. Rescue the one who has been robbed by the hand of the oppressor, or my fury will go out like fire and burn, and there is no one who can quench it, because of your evil deeds.
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer Daa'uudow, aroortii caddaalad sameeya, oo kii la dhacay kii dulmay ka samatabbixiya, si ayan cadhadaydu u soo bixin sidii dab oo kale, oo ayan u hurin si aan innaba loo demin sharka falimihiinna aawadiis.
13 See, inhabitant of the valley! I am against you, rock of the plain—this is Yahweh's declaration— I am against anyone who is saying, “Who will come down to attack us?” or “Who will enter our houses?”
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Ogaada, col baan idinla ahay, kuwiinna dooxada iyo dhagaxa bannaanka deggan ee yidhaahda, Bal yaa nagu soo dhaadhici kara, amase yaa rugtayada soo geli kara?
14 I have assigned the fruit of your practices to come against you—this is Yahweh's declaration— and I will light a fire in the thickets, and it will consume everything around it.'”
Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu waxaan idiin ciqaabi doonaa siday midhaha falimihiinnu ahaayeen, oo dab baan kaynta oo dhan ku dayn doonaa, oo wuxuu baabbi'in doonaa waxyaalaha hareeraha ku yaal oo dhan.
