< Joel 2 >
1 Blow ye a trumpet in Zion, And shout ye in My holy hill, Tremble do all inhabitants of the earth, For coming is the day of Jehovah, for [it is] near!
Ku busa ƙaho a cikin Sihiyona; ku yi karar amo a tsaunina mai tsarki. Bari dukan mazaunan ƙasar su yi rawan jiki, gama ranar Ubangiji tana zuwa. Tana gab da faruwa
2 A day of darkness and thick darkness, A day of cloud and thick darkness, As darkness spread on the mountains, A people numerous and mighty, Like it there hath not been from of old, And after it there is not again — till the years of generation and generation.
rana ce ta baƙin duhu ƙirin, ranar gizagizai ce baƙi ƙirin. Babbar rundunar mayaƙa mai ƙarfi tana zuwa kamar ketowar alfijir a kan duwatsu yadda ba a taɓa ganin irinta ba, ba kuwa za a ƙara ganin irinta ba har tsararraki masu zuwa.
3 Before it consumed hath fire, And after it burn doth a flame, As the garden of Eden [is] the land before it, And after it a wilderness — a desolation! And also an escape there hath not been to it,
A gabansu wuta tana ci, a bayansu ga harshen wuta yana ci, A gabansu ƙasa ta yi kamar gonar Eden, a bayansu kuma jeji ne wofi, babu abin da ya kuɓuce musu.
4 As the appearance of horses [is] its appearance, And as horsemen, so they run.
Suna da kamannin dawakai; suna gudu kamar dokin yaƙi.
5 As the noise of chariots, on the tops of the mountains they skip, As the noise of a flame of fire devouring stubble, As a mighty people set in array for battle.
Da motsi kamar na kekunan yaƙi sun tsallake ƙwanƙolin duwatsu, kamar ƙarar harshen wuta mai cin tattaka, kamar runduna mai ƙarfi wadda ta ja dāgār yaƙi.
6 From its face pained are peoples, All faces have gathered paleness.
Da ganinsu, al’ummai sun kamu da azaba; kowace fuska ta yanƙwane.
7 As mighty ones they run, As men of war they go up a wall, And each in his own ways they do go, And they embarrass not their paths.
Sukan auka kamar jarumawa; sukan hau katanga kamar sojoji. Kowa yana takawa bisa ga tsari, ba mai kaucewa.
8 And each his brother they press not, Each in his way they go on, If by the missile they fall, they are not cut off.
Ba sa turin juna, kowane yakan miƙe gaba. Sukan kutsa cikin abokan gāba ba mai tsai da su.
9 In the city they run to and fro, On the wall they run, Into houses they go up by the windows, They go in as a thief.
Sukan ruga cikin birni, suna gudu a kan katanga. Sukan hau gidaje, sukan shiga ta tagogi kamar ɓarayi.
10 At their face trembled hath the earth, Shaken have the heavens, Sun and moon have been black, And stars have gathered up their shining.
A gabansu duniya takan girgiza, sararin sama kuma yakan jijjigu, rana da wata su yi duhu, taurari kuma ba sa ba da haske.
11 And Jehovah hath given forth His voice before His force, For very great [is] His camp, For mighty [is] the doer of His word, For great [is] the day of Jehovah — very fearful, And who doth bear it?
Ubangiji ya yi tsawa wa shugaban mayaƙansa; sojojinsa sun fi a ƙirge masu ƙarfi ne kuma su waɗanda suke biyayya da umarninsa. Ranar Ubangiji da girma take; mai banrazana. Wa zai iya jure mata?
12 And also now — an affirmation of Jehovah, Turn ye back unto Me with all your heart, And with fasting, and with weeping, And with lamentation.
“Ko yanzu”, in ji Ubangiji, “Ku juyo gare ni da dukan zuciyarku, da azumi da kuka da makoki.”
13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, And turn back unto Jehovah your God, For gracious and merciful [is] He, Slow to anger, and abundant in kindness, And He hath repented concerning the evil.
Ku kyakkece zuciyarku ba rigunanku ba. Ku juyo ga Ubangiji Allahnku, gama shi mai alheri ne mai tausayi kuma mai jinkirin fushi da yawan ƙauna, yakan kuma janye daga aika da bala’i.
14 Who knoweth — He doth turn back, Yea — He hath repented, And He hath left behind Him a blessing, A present and libation of Jehovah your God?
Wa ya sani? Ko zai juya yă kuma ji tausayi yă sa mana albarka ta wurin hadaya ta gari da hadaya ta sha wa Ubangiji Allahnku.
15 Blow ye a trumpet in Zion, Sanctify a fast — proclaim a restraint.
A busa ƙaho a Sihiyona, a yi shelar azumi mai tsarki, a kira tsarkakan taro.
16 Gather the people, sanctify an assembly, Assemble the aged, Gather infants and sucklings of the breasts, Go out let a bridegroom from his inner chamber, And a bride out of her closet.
A tattara mutane; ku tsarkake taron; ku kawo dattawa wuri ɗaya; ku kuma tara yara, da waɗanda suke shan mama. Bari ango yă bar ɗakinsa amarya kuma lolokinta.
17 Between the porch and the altar weep let the priests, ministrants of Jehovah, And let them say: 'Have pity, O Jehovah, on Thy people, And give not Thy inheritance to reproach, To the ruling over them of nations, Why do they say among peoples, Where [is] their God?'
Bari firistocin da suke yin hidima a gaban Ubangiji, su yi kuka tsakanin filin haikali da bagade. Bari su ce, “Ka cece mutanenka, ya Ubangiji. Kada ka bar gādonka yă zama abin dariya, da abin ba’a a cikin al’ummai. Me zai sa a ce a cikin mutane, ‘Ina Allahnsu yake?’”
18 And let Jehovah be zealous for His land, And have pity on His people.
Ta haka Ubangiji zai yi kishin ƙasarsa yă kuma ji tausayin mutanensa.
19 Let Jehovah answer and say to His people, 'Lo, I am sending to you the corn, And the new wine, and the oil, And ye have been satisfied with it, And I make you no more a reproach among nations,
Ubangiji zai amsa musu ya ce, “Ina aika da hatsi, sabon ruwan inabi, da mai, isashe da zai ƙosar da ku sosai; ba kuma zan ƙara maishe ku abin dariya ga al’ummai ba.
20 And the northern I put far off from you, And have driven him unto a land dry and desolate, With his face unto the eastern sea, And his rear unto the western sea, And come up hath his stink, And come up doth his stench, For he hath exerted himself to work.
“Zan kori sojojin arewa nesa da ku, in tura su cikin busasshiyar ƙasa marar amfani kuma, kuma da sawunsu na gaba zan tura su zuwa gabashin teku da kuma sawunsu na baya tura su zuwa yammanci a Bahar Rum. Warinsu kuma zai bazu; ɗoyinsu zai tashi.” Tabbatacce ya yi al’amura masu girma.
21 Do not fear, O land! joy and rejoice, For Jehovah hath exerted Himself to work.
Kada ki ji tsoro, ya ƙasa; ki yi murna ki kuma yi farin ciki. Tabbatacce Ubangiji ya yi abubuwa masu girma.
22 Do not fear, O cattle of the field! For sprung forth have pastures of a wilderness, For the tree hath borne its fruit, Fig-tree and vine have given their strength!
Kada ku ji tsoro, ya ku namun jeji, gama wuraren kiwo sun yi kore shar. Itatuwa suna ba da’ya’yansu; itacen ɓaure da na inabi suna ba da amfaninsu.
23 And ye sons of Zion, joy and rejoice, In Jehovah your God, For He hath given to you the Teacher for righteousness, And causeth to come down to you a shower, Sprinkling and gathered — in the beginning.
Ku yi murna, ya ku mutanen Sihiyona, ku yi farin ciki cikin Ubangiji Allahnku, gama ya ba ku ruwan bazara cikin adalci. Yakan aika muku yayyafi a yalwace, na bazara da na kaka, kamar dā.
24 And full have been the floors [with] pure corn, And overflown have the presses [with] new wine and oil.
Masussukai za su cika da hatsi; randuna za su cika da sabon ruwan inabi da mai suna zuba.
25 And I have recompensed to you the years That consume did the locust, the cankerworm, And the caterpillar, and the palmer-worm, My great force that I did send against you.
“Zan mayar muku da abin da fāra suka ci a waɗannan shekaru waɗanda ɗango da fāra masu gaigayewa, da kuma sauran fāra da tarin fāra babban mayaƙan da na aika don su fāɗa muku.
26 And ye have eaten, eating and being satisfied, And have praised the name of Jehovah your God, Who hath dealt with you wonderfully, And not ashamed are My people to the age.
Za ku sami a wadace ku ci, har sai kun ƙoshi, za ku kuma yabi sunan Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda ya yi muku ayyukan banmamaki; mutanena ba za su ƙara shan kunya ba.
27 And ye have known that in the midst of Israel [am] I, And I [am] Jehovah your God, and there is none else, And not ashamed are My people to the age.
Sa’an nan za ku sani ina cikin Isra’ila, cewa ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku, babu wani kuma; mutanena ba za su ƙara shan kunya ba.
28 And it hath come to pass afterwards, I do pour out My Spirit on all flesh, And prophesied have your sons and your daughters, Your old men do dream dreams, Your young men do see visions.
“Daga baya kuma, zan zuba Ruhuna a bisan dukan mutane.’Ya’yanku maza da mata za su yi annabci, tsofaffinku za su yi mafarkai, matasanku za su ga wahayoyi.
29 And also on the men-servants, and on the maid-servants, In those days I do pour out My Spirit.
Har ma a bisan bayina, maza da mata, zan zuba Ruhuna a kwanakin nan.
30 And I have given wonders in the heavens, and in the earth, Blood and fire, and columns of smoke.
Zan nuna abubuwan banmamaki a cikin sammai da kuma a kan duniya, za a ga jini da wuta da murtukewar hayaƙi.
31 The sun is turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, Before the coming of the day of Jehovah, The great and the fearful.
Rana za tă duhunta wata kuma yă zama jini kafin isowar babbar ranan nan mai banrazana ta Ubangiji.
32 And it hath come to pass, Every one who calleth in the name of Jehovah is delivered, For in mount Zion and in Jerusalem there is an escape, As Jehovah hath said, And among the remnants whom Jehovah is calling!
Amma dukan waɗanda suka nemi Ubangiji za su tsira. Kamar yadda Ubangiji ya ce, gama a Dutsen Sihiyona da Urushalima akwai ceto, a cikin waɗannan da Ubangiji ya kira.
