Jeremiah 7
1 The word that was maad of the Lord to Jeremye,
Hili ndilo neno la BWANA lililomjia Yermia,
2 and seide, Stonde thou in the yate of the hous of the Lord, and preche there this word, and seie, Al Juda, that entren bi these yatis for to worschipe the Lord, here ye the word of the Lord.
Simama katika lango la nyumba ya BWANA na utangaze ujumbe huu! Sikiilizeni neno la BWANA, ninyi nyote watu wa Yuda, ninyi mnaoingia katika malango haya kumwabudu BWANA.
3 The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Make ye good youre weies, and youre studies, and Y schal dwelle with you in this place.
BWANA wsa majeshi, Mungu wa Israeli, anasema hivi: Tengenezeni njia zenu na kufanya mema, nami nitawaacha muishi hapa.
4 Nyle ye triste in the wordis of leesyng, and seie, The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord is.
Msitumainie maneno ya uongo mkisema, “Hekalu la BWANA!, Hekalu la BWANA! Hekalu la BWANA!”
5 For if ye blessen youre weies, and your studies; if ye doon doom bitwixe a man and his neiybore;
Bali kama mtazitengeneza njia zenu na kufanya mema, kama mtatoa hukumu ya haki kati ya mtu na jirani yake
6 if ye maken not fals caleng to a comelyng, and to a fadirles child, and to a widewe; nether scheden out innocent blood in this place, and goen not after alien goddis, in to yuel to you silf,
-kama hamtanyonya anayekaa katika nchi, yatima, mjane, na kama hamtamwaga damu ya mtu asiye na hatia mahali hapa, na kama hataenda kwa miungu mingine kwa ajili ya maumivu yenu
7 Y schal dwelle with you in this place, in the lond which Y yaf to youre fadris, fro the world and til in to the world.
-ndipo nitakapowaacha mkae mahali hapa, katika nchi ambayo niliwapia mababu zenu toka zamani na hata milele.
8 Lo! ye trusten to you in the wordis of leesyng, that shulen not profite to you;
Tazama! Mnatumainia maneno ya uongo ambayo hayawasaidii.
9 to stele, to sle, to do auowtrie, to swere falsli, to make sacrifice to Baalym, and to go aftir alien goddys, whiche ye knowen not.
Je, mnaiba. mnaua, manafanya uzinzi? na mnaapa kwa uongo na kufukiza uvumba kwa Baali na kwenda kwa miungu mingine ambao hamkuwajua?
10 And ye camen, and stoden bifor me in this hous, in which my name is clepid to help; and ye seiden, We ben delyuered, for we han do alle these abhomynaciouns.
Je, mnakuja na kusimama mbele yangu katika nyumba hii ambapo jina langu linatangazwa na kusema, “Tumeokoka.” hivyo mnaweza kufanya machukizo yote haya?
11 Whether therfor this hous, wherynne my name is clepid to help bifore youre iyen, is maad a denne of theues? I, Y am, Y siy, seith the Lord.
Je, hii ndiyo nyumba inayobeba jina langu, pango la wanyang'anyi mbele ya macho yenu? Lakini tazama, Nimeiona - BWANA asema.'
12 Go ye to my place in Silo, where my name dwellide at the bigynnyng, and se ye what thingis Y dide to it, for the malice of my puple Israel.
Kwa hiyo uende mahali pangu kule Shiloh, Kule ambako mwanzoni niliruhusu jina langu kukaa, na tazama kile nilichofanya pale kwa sababu ya maovu ya watu wangu Israeli.
13 And now, for ye han do alle these werkis, seith the Lord, and Y spak to you, and roos eerli, and Y spak, and ye herden not, and Y clepide you, and ye answeriden not;
Kwa hiyo sasa, kwa sababu ya matendo yako haya yote - asema BWANA - Nilikuambia mara kadhaa, lakini hukusikiliza. Nilikuita, lakini hukuitika.
14 Y schal do to this hous, wherynne my name is clepid to help, and in which hous ye han trist, and to the place which Y yaf to you and to youre fadris, as Y dide to Silo.
Kwa hiyo kile nilichofanya Shilo, ndicho ambacho pia nitakachofanya kwa nyumba yangu hii inayoitwa kwa jina langu, nyumba amabyo ninyi mmeitumainia, mahali hapa ambapo niliwapa ninyi na mababu zenu.
15 And Y schal caste you forth fro my face, as Y castide forth alle youre britheren, al the seed of Effraym.
Kwa kuwa nitawafukuza mtoke kwangu kama vile nilivyowafukuza ndugu zenu wote, uzao wote wa Efraimu.'
16 Therfor nyl thou preie for this puple, nether take thou heriyng and preier for hem; and ayenstonde thou not me, for Y schal not here thee.
Na wewe, Yeremia, usiwaombee watu hawa, na usiinue maombolezo ya kilio au kuomba sala kwa niaba yao, na usinishi, kwa kuwa sitakusikiliza.
17 Whether thou seest not, what these men don in the citees of Juda, and in the stretis of Jerusalem?
Kwani huoni kile wanachofanya katika miji ya Yuda na katika mitaa ya Yerusalemu?
18 The sones gaderen stickis, and the fadris kyndlen a fier; and wymmen sprengen togidere ynnere fatnesse, to make kakis to the queen of heuene, to make sacrifice to alien goddis, and to terre me to wrathfulnesse.
Watoto wanakusanya kuni na baba zao huwasha moto! Wanawake hukanda unga ili kuoka mikate kwa ajili ya malikia wa mbinguni na kumimina sadaka ya vinywaji kwa miungu mingine ili kunikasirisha mimi.
19 Whether thei stiren me to wrathfulnesse? seith the Lord; whether thei stiren not hem silf in to schenschip of her cheer?
Ni kweli wananikasirisha mimi? - asema BWANA - Je, si wao wanaojikasirisha, ili kwamba aibu iwe juu yao?
20 Therfor the Lord God seith these thingis, Lo! my strong veniaunce and myn indignacioun is wellid togidere on this place, on men, and on beestis, and on the tree of the cuntrei, and on the fruitis of erthe; and it schal be kyndlid, and it schal not be quenchid.
Kwa hiyo BWANA, Mungu asema hivi, 'Tazama, hasira na ghahdabu yangu zitamwagwa juu ya mahali hapa, kwa watu wote na wanyama, juu ya miti katika mashamba na mazao ya ardhi, Itawaka nayo haitazimishwa.
21 The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Heepe ye youre brent sacrifices to youre slayn sacrifices, and ete ye fleischis.
BWANA wa majeshi, Mungu wa Israeli asema hivi, Jiongezeeni sadaka za kuteketezwa katika dhabihu zenu na nyama zake.
22 For Y spak not with youre fadris, and Y comaundide not to hem of the word of brent sacrifices, and of slayn sacrifices, in the dai in which Y ledde hem out of the lond of Egipt.
Kwani wakati nilipowatoa mababu zenu kutoka nchi ya Misri, Sikuhitaji chochote kutoka kwao. Sikuwapa amri juu ya maswala ya sadaka za kuteketezwa na dhabihu.
23 But Y comaundide this word to hem, and Y seide, Here ye my vois, and Y schal be God to you, and ye schulen be a puple to me; and go ye in al the weie which Y comaundide to you, that it be wel to you.
Niliwapa amri hii tu, “Sikilizeni sauti yangu, nami nitakuwa Mungu wenu nanyi mtakuwa watu wangu. Kwa hiyo muishi katika njia ambazo ninawaamuru, ili mambo yenu yawe mazuri.”
24 And thei herden not, nether bowiden doun her eere, but thei yeden in her lustis, and in the schrewidnesse of her yuel herte; and thei ben put bihynde, and not bifore,
Lakini hawkunisikiliza wala kuzingatia. Walishi kwa kufuata mipango yao ya uasi ya mioyo ya maovu, kwa hiyo walirudi nyuma badala ya kuendelea mbele.
25 fro the dai in which her fadris yeden out of the lond of Egipt til to this dai. And Y sente to you alle my seruauntis profetis, and Y roos eerli bi the dai, and Y sente.
Tangu siku ambayo mababu zenu walitoka katika nchi ya Misri mpaka leo, Nimetuma watumishi wangu, manabii wangu, kwenu. Niliendelea kuwatuma.
26 And thei herden not me, nether bowiden doun her eere; but thei maden hard her nol, and wrouyten worse than the fadris of hem.
Lakini hawakuwasikiliza. Hawakuzingatia. Badala yake walishupaza shingo zao. Walikuwa waovu zaidi ya mababu zao.
27 And thou schalt speke to hem alle these wordis, and thei schulen not heere thee; and thou schalt clepe hem, and thei schul not answere to thee.
Kwa hiyo yatangaze maneno haya yote kwao, japo hawatakusikiliza. Yatangaze mambo haya kwao, lakini hawatakujibu.
28 And thou schalt seie to hem, This is the folc, that herde not the vois of her Lord God, nether resseyuede chastysyng; feith perischide, and is takun awei fro the mouth of hem.
Waambie kuwa hili ni taifa ambalo haliisikilizi sauti ya BWANA, Mungu wake na lisilopokea mafundisho. Ukweli uneharibiwa na kukatwa kutoka kwenye vinywa vyao.
29 Clippe thin heer, and cast awei, and take thou weilyng streiytli; for the Lord hath cast awei, and hath forsake the generacioun of his strong veniaunce.
Zikate nywele zako na kujinyoa, na kuzitupa. Imba wimbo wa maombolezo katika maeneo yaliyo wazi. Kwa kuwa BWANA amekikataa na kukitupa kizazi hiki cha hasira yake.
30 For the sones of Juda han do yuel bifor myn iyen, seith the Lord; thei han set her offendyngis in the hous, in which my name is clepid to help, that thei schulden defoule that hous;
Kwa kuwa wana wa Yuda wamefanya maovu mbele ya macho yangu - asema BWANA - wameweka machukizo yao katika nyumba ambayo jina langu hunenwa, ili kulinajisi.
31 and thei bildiden hiye thingis in Tophet, which is in the valei of the sone of Ennon, that thei schulden brenne her sones and her douytris bi fier, whiche thingis Y comaundide not, nether thouyte in myn herte.
Kisha wamejenga mahali palipoinuka pa Tofethi ambapo pako kwenye bonde la Ben Hinomu. Walifanya hivi ili kuwachoma wana na binti zao kwenye moto - kitu ambacho mimi sikuamuru, wala kuweka jambo hilo katika akili zangu.
32 Therfor lo! daies comen, seith the Lord, and it schal no more be seid Tophet, and the valei of the sone of Ennon, but the valey of sleyng; and thei schulen birie in Tophet, for ther is no place.
Kwa hiyo, tazama siku zinakuja - asema BWANA - ambapo hapataitwa tena Tofethi au bonde la Ben Hinomu. Litakuwa bonde la machinjio; watazika maiti hapo Tofethi mpaka eneo lote lienee.
33 And the deed careyn of this puple schal be in to mete to the briddis of heuene, and to the beestis of erthe; and noon schal be that schal dryue awei.
Mizoga ya watu hawa itakuwa chakula cha ndege wa angani na wanyama wa duniani, na hakutakuwa na mtu wa kuwafukuza.
34 And Y schal make to ceesse the vois of ioye, and the vois of gladnesse, and the vois of spouse, and the vois of spousesse fro the citees of Juda, and fro the stretis of Jerusalem; for the lond schal be in desolacioun.
Nitazikomesha katika miji ya Yuda na mitaa ya Yerusalaemu sauti za kuiniuliwa na vicheko, Sauti ya bwana arusi na ya bibi arusi; kwa kuwa nchi hiyo itakuwa ukiwa.”
