Irmiya 10
1 Ku ji abin da Ubangiji yana ce muku, ya gidan Isra’ila.
Give ear to the word which the Lord says to you, O people 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.
This is what the Lord has said: Do not go in the way of the nations; have no fear of the signs of heaven, for the nations go in fear of them.
3 Gama al’adun mutane banza ne; sukan yanke itace daga kurmi, sai mai sassaƙa yă sassaƙa shi da gizago.
For that which is feared by the people is foolish: it is the work of the hands of the workman; for a tree is cut down by him out of the woods with his axe.
4 Sukan yi masa ado da azurfa da kuma zinariya; sukan ɗauki guduma su kafa shi da ƙusoshi, don kada yă fāɗi.
They make it beautiful with silver and gold; they make it strong with nails and hammers, so that it may not be moved.
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.”
It is like a pillar in a garden of plants, and has no voice: it has to be lifted, for it has no power of walking. Have no fear of it; for it has no power of doing evil and it is not able to do any good.
6 Babu wani kamar ka, ya Ubangiji; kai mai girma ne, kuma sunanka yana da girma da kuma iko.
There is no one like you, O Lord; you are great and your name is great in power.
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 would not have fear of you, O King of the nations? for it is your right: for among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is no one like you.
8 Dukansu marasa azanci ne wawaye; gumakan itacen banza ne suke koya musu.
But they are together like beasts and foolish: the teaching of false gods is wood.
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.
Silver hammered into plates is sent from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the expert workman and of the hands of the gold-worker; blue and purple is their clothing, all the work of expert 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 the Lord is the true God; he is the living God and an eternal king: when he is angry, the earth is shaking with fear, and the nations give way before his wrath.
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.’”
This is what you are to say to them: The gods who have not made the heavens and the earth will be cut off 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 has made the earth by his power, he has made the world strong in its place by his wisdom, and by his wise design the heavens have been stretched out.
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.
At the sound of his voice there is a massing of waters in the heavens, and he makes the mists go up from the ends of the earth; he makes the thunder-flames for the rain, and sends out the wind from his store-houses.
14 Kowa marar azanci ne, marar ilimi; kowane maƙerin zinariya zai sha kunya saboda gumakansa. Siffofinsa ƙarya ne; ba su da numfashi a cikinsu.
Then every man becomes like a beast without knowledge; every gold-worker is put to shame by the image he has made: for his metal image is deceit, 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 nothing, a work of error: in the time of their punishment, destruction will overtake them.
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 heritage of Jacob is not like these; for the maker of all things is his heritage: the Lord of armies is his name.
17 Ku tattara kayayyakinku don ku bar ƙasar, ku da kuke zaune a wurin da aka kewaye da yaƙi.
Get your goods together and go out of the land, O you who are shut up in the walled town.
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 the Lord has said, I will send the people in flight like a stone from the land at this time, troubling them so that they will be conscious of 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.”
Sorrow is mine for I am wounded! my wound may not be made well; and I said, Cruel is my disease, I may not be free from 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 pulled down and all my cords are broken: my children have gone from me, and they are not: no longer is there anyone to give help in stretching out my tent and hanging 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 keepers of the sheep have become like beasts, not looking to the Lord for directions: so they have not done wisely and all their flocks have been put to flight.
22 Ku saurara! Rahoto yana zuwa babban hargitsi daga ƙasar arewa! Zai mai da garuruwan Yahuda kufai, mazaunin diloli.
News is going about, see, it is coming, a great shaking is coming from the north country, so that the towns of Judah may be made waste and become the living-place of jackals.
23 Na sani, ya Ubangiji, cewa ran mutum ba nasa ba ne; ba mutum ne yake kiyaye takawarsa ba.
O Lord, I am conscious that a man's way is not in himself: man has no power of guiding his steps.
24 Ka yi mini gyara, Ubangiji, amma fa da adalci kaɗai ba cikin fushinka ba, don kada ka wofinta ni.
O Lord, put me right, but with wise purpose; not in your wrath, or you will make me small.
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.
Let your wrath be let loose on the nations which have no knowledge of you, and on the families who give no worship to your name: for they have made a meal of Jacob, truly they have made a meal of him and put an end to him and made his fields a waste.
