< Irmiya 10 >
1 Ku ji abin da Ubangiji yana ce muku, ya gidan Isra’ila.
Hear ye the word which Jehovah speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:
2 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Kada ku koyi hanyoyin al’ummai ko ku razana game da alamun sararin sama, ko da yake al’ummai sun razana saboda su.
thus saith Jehovah, Learn not the way of the nations, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the nations are dismayed at them.
3 Gama al’adun mutane banza ne; sukan yanke itace daga kurmi, sai mai sassaƙa yă sassaƙa shi da gizago.
For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the axe.
4 Sukan yi masa ado da azurfa da kuma zinariya; sukan ɗauki guduma su kafa shi da ƙusoshi, don kada yă fāɗi.
They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
5 Kamar dodon gona cikin gonar kabewa, haka gumakansu ba sa iya magana; dole a yi ta ɗaukansu domin ba za su iya tafiya ba. Kada ku ji tsoronsu; ba za su iya yi wa wani lahani ba ba sa iya yin wani abin kirki.”
They are like a palm-tree, of turned work, and speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither is it in them to do good.
6 Babu wani kamar ka, ya Ubangiji; kai mai girma ne, kuma sunanka yana da girma da kuma iko.
There is none like unto thee, O Jehovah; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.
7 Wane ne ba zai girmama ka ba, Ya Sarkin al’ummai? Tsoronka wajibi ne. A cikin dukan masu hikima na al’ummai kuma cikin dukan mulkokinsu, babu kamar ka.
Who should not fear thee, O King of the nations? for to thee doth it appertain; forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is none like unto thee.
8 Dukansu marasa azanci ne wawaye; gumakan itacen banza ne suke koya musu.
But they are together brutish and foolish: the instruction of idols! it is but a stock.
9 An kawo ƙeraren azurfa daga Tarshish zinariya kuma daga Ufaz. Abin da gwani da maƙerin zinariya suka yi sa’an nan aka yi masa ado da mulufi da shunayya dukan aikin gwanaye.
There is silver beaten into plates, which is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the artificer and of the hands of the goldsmith; blue and purple for their clothing; they are all the work of skilful men.
10 Amma Ubangiji shi ne Allah na gaskiya; shi ne Allah mai rai, madawwamin sarki. Sa’ad da ya yi fushi, ƙasa takan girgiza; al’ummai ba sa iya jure da hasalarsa.
But Jehovah is the true God; he is the living God, and an everlasting King: at his wrath the earth trembleth, and the nations are not able to abide his indignation.
11 “Ka faɗa musu wannan, ‘Waɗannan alloli, waɗanda ba su yi sammai da ƙasa ba, za su hallaka daga duniya da kuma daga ƙarƙashin sammai.’”
Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, these shall perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.
12 Amma Allah ya yi duniya ta wurin ikonsa; ya kafa duniya ta wurin hikimarsa ya shimfiɗa sammai ta wurin fahiminsa.
He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding hath he stretched out the heavens.
13 Sa’ad da ya yi tsawa, ruwaye a cikin sammai sukan yi ƙugi; yakan sa gizagizai su taso daga iyakokin duniya. Yakan aiki walƙiya da ruwan sama ya fitar da iska daga gidajen ajiyarsa.
When he uttereth his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries.
14 Kowa marar azanci ne, marar ilimi; kowane maƙerin zinariya zai sha kunya saboda gumakansa. Siffofinsa ƙarya ne; ba su da numfashi a cikinsu.
Every man is become brutish [and is] without knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his graven image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
15 Su ba kome ba ne, aikin ruɗami ne; Sa’ad da hukuncinsu ya yi za su lalace.
They are vanity, a work of delusion: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
16 Shi da yake Rabon Yaƙub ba kamar waɗannan yake ba, gama shi ne Mahaliccin abubuwa duka, har da Isra’ila, kabilar gādonsa Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne sunansa.
The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance: Jehovah of hosts is his name.
17 Ku tattara kayayyakinku don ku bar ƙasar, ku da kuke zaune a wurin da aka kewaye da yaƙi.
Gather up thy wares out of the land, O thou that abidest in the siege.
18 Gama haka Ubangiji ya faɗa, “A wannan lokaci zan jefar da waɗanda suke zaune a ƙasar; zan kawo damuwa a kansu domin a kama su.”
For thus saith Jehovah, Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time, and will distress them, that they may feel [it].
19 Tawa ta ƙare, saboda raunin da aka yi mini! Raunina ba mai warkewa ba ne! Duk da haka na ce wa kaina, “Wannan ciwona ne, dole kuma in jure da shi.”
Woe is me because of my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is [my] grief, and I must bear it.
20 An lalatar da tentina; dukan igiyoyinsa sun tsintsinke.’Ya’yana maza sun bar ni ba sa nan; ba wanda aka bari da zai kafa tentina ko ya kafa mini mafaka.
My tent is destroyed, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth from me, and they are not: there is none to spread my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.
21 Makiyaya marasa azanci ne kuma ba sa neman nufin Ubangiji; saboda haka ba sa nasara dukan garkensu kuwa ya watse.
For the shepherds are become brutish, and have not inquired of Jehovah: therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks are scattered.
22 Ku saurara! Rahoto yana zuwa babban hargitsi daga ƙasar arewa! Zai mai da garuruwan Yahuda kufai, mazaunin diloli.
The voice of tidings, behold, it cometh, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a dwelling-place of jackals.
23 Na sani, ya Ubangiji, cewa ran mutum ba nasa ba ne; ba mutum ne yake kiyaye takawarsa ba.
O Jehovah, I know that the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.
24 Ka yi mini gyara, Ubangiji, amma fa da adalci kaɗai ba cikin fushinka ba, don kada ka wofinta ni.
O Jehovah, correct me, but in measure; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
25 Ka zuba hasalarka a kan al’umman da ba su san ka ba, a kan mutanen da ba sa kira bisa sunanka. Gama sun cinye Yaƙub; sun cinye shi gaba ɗaya suka kuma lalace wurin zamansa.
Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name; for they have devoured Jacob, yea, they have devoured him and consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation.
