< Lamentations 2 >

1 Aleph. Hou hath the Lord hilid the douyter of Sion with derknesse in his strong veniaunce? he hath caste doun fro heuene in to erthe the noble citee of Israel; and bithouyte not on the stool of hise feet, in the dai of his strong veniaunce.
Bwana amemfunika binti wa Sayuni chini ya wingu la hasira yake. Ametupa utukufu wa Israeli chini kutoka mbinguni hadi duniani. Hajakumba stuli yake ya miguu siku ya hasira yake.
2 Beth. The Lord castide doun, and sparide not alle the faire thingis of Jacob; he distried in his strong veniaunce the strengthis of the virgyn of Juda, and castide doun in to erthe; he defoulide the rewme, and the princes therof.
Bwana amemeza na hajawa na huruma kwa miji yote ya Yakobo. Siku za hasira zake ameangusha miji imara ya binti wa Yuda; kwa aibu ameshusha chini ufalme na watala wake.
3 Gymel. He brak in the ire of his strong veniaunce al the horn of Israel; he turnede a bak his riyt hond fro the face of the enemy; and he kyndlide in Jacob, as fier of flawme deuowrynge in cumpas.
Kwa hasira kali amekata kila pembe ya Israeli. Ameurudisha mkono wake kutoka kwa adui. Amechoma Yakobo kama moto mkali unao teketeza kila kitu karibu yake.
4 Deleth. He as an enemye bente his bouwe, he as an aduersarie made stidfast his riyt hond; and he killide al thing that was fair in siyt in the tabernacle of the douytir of Sion; he schedde out his indignacioun as fier.
Kama adui amepindisha upinde wake kuelekea kwetu, na wakulia wake yupo tayari kushambulia. Amewachinja wote walio kuwa wanampendeza katika hema la binti wa Sayuni; Amemwaga gadhabu yake kama moto
5 He. The Lord is maad as an enemy; he castide doun Israel, he castide doun alle the wallis therof; he destriede the strengthis therof, and fillide in the douyter of Juda a man maad low, and a womman maad low.
Bwana amekuwa kama adui. Amemeza Israeli. Amemeza majumba yake yote. Ameharibu ngome zake. Ameongeza kilio na maombolezo kati ya mabinti wa Yuda.
6 Vau. And he scateride his tent as a gardyn, he distried his tabernacle; the Lord yaf to foryetyng in Sion a feeste dai, and sabat; and the kyng and prest in to schenschipe, and in to the indignacioun of his strong veniaunce.
Ameshambulia hema lake la kukutania kama kajumba cha bustani. Ameharibu sehemu ya kukusanyikia. Yahweh amesababisha kukusanyika na Sabato kusahaulika Sayuni, kwa kuwa amemdharau mfalme na kuhani katika ukali wa hasira yake.
7 Zai. The Lord puttide awei his auter, he curside his halewyng; he bitook in to the hondis of enemy the wallis of the touris therof; thei yauen vois in the hous of the Lord, as in a solempne dai.
Bwana amekataa madhabahu yake na kukana sehemu yake takatifu. Ametoa kuta za majumba mikononi mwa adui. Wamepaza sauti nyumbani mwa Yahweh, kama siku ya sherehe.
8 Heth. The Lord thouyte to distrie the wal of the douyter of Sion; he stretchide forth his coorde, and turnede not awei his hond fro perdicioun; the forwal, ether the outerward, mourenyde, and the wal was distried togidere.
Yahweh aliamua kuharibu ukuta wa mji wa binti wa Sayuni. Amenyoosha kamba ya kipimo na hajauzuia mkono wake kutoharibu ukuta. Amefanya minara na ukuta kuomboleza; pamoja vilipotea.
9 Teth. The yatis therof ben piyt in the erthe, he loste and al to-brak the barris therof; the kyng therof and the princes therof among hethene men; the lawe is not, and the profetis therof founden not of the Lord a visioun.
Malango yake yameanguka chini, ameharibu na kuvunja chuma za ukuta. Mfalme wake na watoto wa mfalme wapo miongoni mwa mataifa, sheria haipo tena na manabii wake hawapati maono kutoka kwa Yahweh.
10 Joth. Thei saten in erthe, the elde men of the douytir of Sion weren stille; thei bispreynten her heedis with aische, the eldere men of Juda ben girt with hairis; the virgyns of Juda castiden doun to erthe her heedis.
Wazee wa binti wa Sayuni wameketi chini na ukimya. Wamerusha vumbi kichwani mwao na kuvaa magunia. Mabikra wa Yerusalemu wameinamisha vichwa vyao chini.
11 Caph. Myn iyen failiden for teeris, myn entrails weren disturblid; my mawe was sched out in erthe on the sorewe of the douyter of my puple; whanne a litil child and soukynge failide in the stretis of the citee.
Macho yangu yamekaukiwa machozi yake; tumbo langu la nguruma; sehemu zangu za ndani zimemwagika chini kwasababu ya uharibifu wa binti wa watu wangu, watoto na wachanga wamezimia mitaani mwa mji.
12 Lameth. Thei seiden to her modris, Where is wheete, and wyn? whanne thei failiden as woundid men in the stretis of the citee; whanne thei senten out her soulis in the bosum of her modris.
Wanasema kwa mama zao, “Mbegu ziko wapi na mvinyo?” kama wanavyo zimia kama mtu aliye jeruhiwa mitaani mwa mji, maisha yao yamemwaga kwenye kifua cha mama zao.
13 Men. To whom schal Y comparisoun thee? ether to whom schal Y licne thee, thou douyter of Jerusalem? to whom schal Y make thee euene, and schal Y coumforte thee, thou virgyn, the douyter of Sion? for whi thi sorewe is greet as the see; who schal do medicyn to thee?
Nini naeza kusema kwako, binti wa Yerusalemu? Naweza kufananisha na nini, ili ni kufariji, binti bikra wa Sayuni? Jera lako ni kubwa kama bahari. Nani anaweza kukuponya?
14 Nun. Thi profetis sien to thee false thingis, and fonned; and openyden not thi wickidnesse, that thei schulden stire thee to penaunce; but thei sien to thee false takyngis, and castyngis out.
Manabii wako wameona uongo na maono batili kwa ajili yako. Hawaja weka wazi dhambi zako kurejesha mali zako, lakini kwako wametoa matamko ya uongo na ya kupotosha.
15 Sameth. Alle men passynge on the weie flappiden with hondis on thee; thei hissiden, and mouyden her heed on the douyter of Jerusalem; and seiden, This is the citee of perfit fairnesse, the ioie of al erthe.
Wote wanao pita pembeni mwa barabara wana piga makofi kwako. Wanaguna na kutikisa vichwa vyao dhidi ya binti wa Yerusalemu na kusema, “Huu ndio mji walio uita 'Ukamilifu wa uzuri,' 'Furaha ya Dunia Yote'?”
16 Ayn. Alle thin enemyes openyden her mouth on thee; thei hissiden, and gnaistiden with her teeth, and seiden, We schulen deuoure; lo! this is the dai which we abididen, we founden, we sien.
Maadui zako wote walifungua vinywa vyao na kukudhihaki. Walizomea na kusaga meno na kusema, “Tumemmeza yeye! Hii ni siku tulio subiri! Tumeishi kuweza kuiona!”
17 Phe. The Lord dide tho thingis whiche he thouyte, he fillide hise word which he hadde comaundid fro elde daies; he distriede, and sparide not; and made glad the enemy on thee, and enhaunside the horn of thin enemyes.
Yahweh amefanya alivyo panga kufanya. Ametimiza neno lake. Amekupindua bila huruma, kwa kuwa amemruhusu adui kukusherehekea; amenyanyua pembe za maadui zako.
18 Sade. The herte of hem criede to the Lord, on the wallis of the douyter of Syon; leede thou forth teeris as a stronde, bi dai and niyt; yyue thou not reste to thee, nether the appil of thin iye be stille.
Mioyo yao ikamlilia Bwana, kuta za binti wa Sayuni! Fanya machozi yako kutiririka chini kama mto usiku na mchana. Usijipatie hauweni, macho yako bila hauweni.
19 Coph. Rise thou togidere, herie thou in the nyyt, in the begynnyng of wakyngis; schede out thin herte as watir, bifore the siyt of the Lord; reise thin hondis to hym for the soulis of thi litle children, that failiden for hungur in the heed of alle meetyngis of weies.
Nyanyuka, lia usiku, mwanzo usiku wa manane! Mwaga moyo wako kama maji mbele za uso wa Bwana. Nyoosha juu mikono yako kwa ajili ya uzima wa watoto wako wanao zimia kwa njaa kwenye njia ya kila mtaa.
20 Res. Se thou, Lord, and byholde, whom thou hast maad so bare; therfor whether wymmen schulen ete her fruyt, litle children at the mesure of an hond? for a prest and profete is slayn in the seyntuarie of the Lord.
Ona, Yahweh, na ukumbuke hao ulio watende haya. Wanawake wale tunda la uzazi wao, watoto walio wajali? Makuhani na manabii wa chinjwe sehemu takatifu ya Bwana?
21 Syn. A child and an elde man laien on the erthe withoutforth; my virgyns and my yonge men fellen doun bi swerd; thou hast slayn hem in the dai of thi strong veniaunce, thou smotist `and didist no merci.
Wote wadogo kwa wakubwa wana keti kwenye udongo wa mitaa. Wanawake wangu wadogo na wanaume wangu wadogo wameanguaka kwa upanga; umewachinja pasipo kuwa hurumia.
22 Thau. Thou clepidist, as to a solempne dai, hem that maden me aferd of cumpas; and noon was that ascapide in the dai of the strong veniaunce of the Lord, and was left; myn enemy wastide hem, whiche Y fedde, and nurschide up.
Umeitisha, kama ungewaita watu katika siku ya maakuli, hofu yangu kila sehemu, katika siku ya hasira ya Yahweh hakuna aliye toroka; hao niliyo wajali na kuwakuza, adui wangu amewaharibu.
