Irmiya 10
1 Ku ji abin da Ubangiji yana ce muku, ya gidan Isra’ila.
Heare ye the worde of the Lord that he speaketh vnto 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 the Lord, Learne not the way of the heathen, and be not afraid for the signes of heauen, though the heathen be afraid of such.
3 Gama al’adun mutane banza ne; sukan yanke itace daga kurmi, sai mai sassaƙa yă sassaƙa shi da gizago.
For the customes of the people are vaine: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest (which is the worke of the handes of the carpenter) 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.
And another decketh it with siluer, and with golde: they fasten it with nailes, and hammers, that it fall 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.”
The idoles stande vp as the palme tree, but speake not: they are borne because they cannot go feare them not, for they cannot do euill, neither can they 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 vnto thee, O Lord: thou art great, and thy 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 feare thee, O King of nations? for to thee appertaineth the dominion: for among all the wise men of the Gentiles, and in al their kingdomes there is none like thee.
8 Dukansu marasa azanci ne wawaye; gumakan itacen banza ne suke koya musu.
But, altogether they dote, and are foolish: for the stocke is a doctrine of vanitie.
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.
Siluer plates are brought from Tarshish, and golde from Vphaz, for the worke of the workeman, and the handes of the founder: the blewe silke, and the purple is their clothing: all these things are made by cunning 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 God of trueth: he is the liuing God, and an euerlasting King: at his anger the earth shall tremble, and the nations cannot abide 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.’”
(Thus shall you say vnto them, The gods that haue not made the heauens and the earth, shall perish from the earth, and from vnder these heauens)
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, and established the worlde by his wisedome, and hath stretched out the heauen by his discretion.
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.
Hee giueth by his voyce the multitude of waters in the heauen, and he causeth the cloudes to ascend from the endes of the earth: he turneth lightnings to rayne, and bringeth forth the winde out of his treasures.
14 Kowa marar azanci ne, marar ilimi; kowane maƙerin zinariya zai sha kunya saboda gumakansa. Siffofinsa ƙarya ne; ba su da numfashi a cikinsu.
Euery man is a beast by his owne knowledge: euery founder is confounded by the grauen image: for his melting is but falsehood, and there is no breath therein.
15 Su ba kome ba ne, aikin ruɗami ne; Sa’ad da hukuncinsu ya yi za su lalace.
They are vanitie, and the worke of errours: 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 Iaakob is not like them: for he is the maker of all things, and Israel is the rodde of his inheritance: the Lord of hostes is his Name.
17 Ku tattara kayayyakinku don ku bar ƙasar, ku da kuke zaune a wurin da aka kewaye da yaƙi.
Gather vp thy wares out of the land, O thou that dwellest in the strong place.
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 sayth the Lord, Beholde, at this time I will throwe as with a sling the inhabitants of the lande, and will trouble them, and they shall finde it so.
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.”
Wo is me for my destruction, and my grieuous plague: but I thought, Yet it is my sorow, and I will beare 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 tabernacle is destroyed, and all my coardes are broken: my children are gone from me, and are not: there is none to spread out my tent any more, and to set vp my curtaines.
21 Makiyaya marasa azanci ne kuma ba sa neman nufin Ubangiji; saboda haka ba sa nasara dukan garkensu kuwa ya watse.
For the Pastours are become beasts, and haue not sought the Lord: therefore haue they none vnderstanding: and all the flockes of their pastures are scattered.
22 Ku saurara! Rahoto yana zuwa babban hargitsi daga ƙasar arewa! Zai mai da garuruwan Yahuda kufai, mazaunin diloli.
Beholde, the noyse of the brute is come, and a great commotion out of the North countrey to make the cities of Iudah desolate, and a denne of dragons.
23 Na sani, ya Ubangiji, cewa ran mutum ba nasa ba ne; ba mutum ne yake kiyaye takawarsa ba.
O Lord, I knowe, that the way of man is not in himselfe, neyther is it in man to walke and 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 Lord, correct mee, but with iudgement, not in thine anger, least thou bring mee 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.
Powre out thy wrath vpon the heathen, that knowe thee not, and vpon the families that call not on thy Name: for they haue eaten vp Iaakob and deuoured him and consumed him, and haue made his habitation desolate.
