1 Ga maganar da ta zo wa Irmiya daga wurin Ubangiji.
This is [another] message that Yahweh told me:
2 “Ka saurari zancen wannan alkawari ka kuma faɗe su ga mutanen Yahuda da kuma waɗanda suke zaune a Urushalima.
“Listen to the agreement that I made with [the ancestors of] the people of Jerusalem and [the other cities in] Judah. Then remind them of [that agreement].
3 Ka faɗa musu cewa ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila yana cewa, ‘La’ananne ne wanda bai kula da zancen alkawarin nan ba,
Then tell them that [I], Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli [people worship], said that I will curse everyone who does not obey what was written in that agreement that I made with them.
4 zancen da na umarci kakanni-kakanninku sa’ad da na fitar da su daga Masar, daga cikin tanderun narkewar ƙarfe.’ Na ce, ‘Ku yi mini biyayya ku kuma aikata kowane abin da na umarce ku, za ku kuwa zama mutanena, ni kuwa zan zama Allahnku.
It is the same agreement that I made with their ancestors when I brought them out of Egypt. [What happened to them in Egypt was terrible; it was as though they were] living in a hot furnace [MET]. When I brought them out of Egypt, I told them to obey me, and to do everything that I had commanded them to do. [I also told them] that if they obeyed me, they would be my people and I would be their God.
5 Sa’an nan zan cika rantsuwar da na yi wa kakanni-kakanninku, da zan ba su ƙasa mai zub da madara da kuma zuma’ ƙasar da kuka mallaka a yau.” Sai na amsa na ce, “Amin, Ubangiji.”
[Now tell these people that if they obey me], I will do what I promised to do for their ancestors. I will enable them to continue living in this very fertile [IDM] land in which they now live.” I replied, “Yahweh, I hope that what you said will happen.”
6 Sai Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ka yi shelar dukan maganan nan a biranen Yahuda da titunan Urushalima duka cewa, ‘Su saurari zancen alkawarin nan, su aikata.
Then Yahweh said to me, “Go into the streets of Jerusalem and to the [other] cities in Judah. Proclaim my message to the people. Tell them to listen to the agreement [that I made with their ancestors], and to obey it.
7 Daga lokacin da na fitar da kakanni-kakanninku daga Masar har yă zuwa yau, na gargaɗe su sau da sau, ina cewa, “Ku yi mini biyayya.”
When I brought their ancestors out of Egypt, I solemnly pleaded with them many times to obey me, and I am still pleading with them now.
8 Amma ba su kasa kunne ko su saurara ba, a maimako, sai suka bi taurinkai na mugayen zukatansu. Saboda haka na kawo musu dukan la’anonin alkawarin da na riga na umarce su, su bi amma ba su kiyaye ba.’”
But they did not obey me or [even] pay any attention to me. Everyone continued to be stubborn and to do the evil things that they wanted to do. I commanded them to do what was written in the agreement, but they refused. So I punished them in all the ways that I promised that I would.”
9 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Akwai maƙarƙashiya a cikin mutanen Yahuda da waɗanda suke zaune a Urushalima.
Then Yahweh said to me, “The people of Jerusalem and [the other cities in] Judah are rebelling against me.
10 Sun koma ga zunuban kakanni kakanninsu, waɗanda suka ƙi su saurari maganata. Suka bi waɗansu alloli don su bauta musu. Da gidan Isra’ila da kuma gidan Yahuda duk sun take alkawarin da na yi da kakanni kakanninsu.
Their ancestors refused to do what I told them to do, and [now] these people have returned to committing the sins that their ancestors committed. They are worshiping other gods. The people of Israel disobeyed the agreement that I made with their ancestors, and [now] the people of Judah have done the same thing.
11 Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, ‘Zan kawo masifa a kansu wadda ba za su iya tsere mata ba. Ko da yake suna kuka gare ni, ba zan saurare su ba.
So now I, Yahweh, am warning them that I will cause them to experience disasters, and they will not escape them. And when they cry out for me [to help them], I will not pay attention.
12 Garuruwan Yahuda da mutanen Urushalima za su tafi su yi kuka ga allolin da suke ƙona wa turare, amma ba za su taimake su ba sam sa’ad da masifar ta auku.
When that happens, the people in Jerusalem and [other] cities in Judah will [offer sacrifices and] burn incense to their gods and ask for their help, but those gods will not be able to save them when those disasters come to them.
13 Kuna da alloli masu yawa yadda kuke da garuruwa, ya Yahuda; kuma bagadan da kuka yi don ƙona turare wa allahn nan Ba’al abin kunya sun yi yawa kamar titunan Urushalima.’
There are more gods in Judah than there are towns in Judah, and the people of Jerusalem have erected as many altars to burn incense [to those gods] as there are streets in Jerusalem.
14 “Kada ka yi addu’a domin wannan mutane ko ka miƙa wani roƙo ko kuka dominsu, domin ba zan saurara ba sa’ad da suka kira gare ni a lokacin ƙuncinsu.
Jeremiah, do not pray for these people, and do not plead with me to rescue them. If you plead with me, I will not pay attention; and if they cry out to me for help when they are in distress, I will not listen to them.”
15 “Mene ne ƙaunatacciyata take yi a haikali da yake ta yin ƙulle-ƙullen mugayen makircinta tare da mutane masu yawa? Tsarkakar nama zai iya kawar da hukuncinki? Sa’ad da kike yin muguntarki sa’an nan ki yi farin ciki.”
Then Yahweh said, “The people [of Judah] whom I love certainly no longer have [RHQ] a right to come to my temple, because they continually do many evil things. [They think that] continually making sacrifices of meat to me certainly will [RHQ] protect them from disasters, with the result that they will be able to rejoice.
16 Ubangiji ya kira ki itacen zaitun mai inuwa kyakkyawa mai’ya’ya masu kyau. Amma da ƙugin babbar hadari zai cinna masa wuta, rassansa za su kakkarye.
I previously said that they were like an olive tree full of green leaves with a lot of good olives on it, but [now I will send their enemies to attack] them furiously; [it is as though] I will break off their branches, and [their city] will be destroyed by fire.
17 Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, wanda ya dasa ki, ya furta miki masifa, domin gidan Isra’ila da kuma gidan Yahuda sun aikata mugunta suka kuma tsokane ni in yi fushi ta wurin ƙona wa Ba’al turare.
[It is as though] the people of Judah and Israel were a beautiful olive tree that I, the Commander of the armies of angels, planted, but [now], by burning incense to [their god] Baal, they have caused me to become [very] angry. So [now] I have decided to destroy them.”
18 Domin Ubangiji ya bayyana mini maƙarƙashiyarsu, na santa, gama a wannan lokaci ya nuna mini abin da suke yi.
Yahweh revealed to me that [my enemies] were planning to kill me.
19 Na kasance kamar ɗan rago marar faɗa wanda aka kai mayanka; ban gane cewa sun ƙulla mini maƙarƙashiya, suna cewa, “Bari mu lalatar da itacen duk da’ya’yansa; bari mu datse shi daga ƙasar masu rai, har da ba za a ƙara tunawa da sunansa ba.”
[Before he did that], I was like a lamb that was being led away to be slaughtered; I did not know what they were planning to do. I did not know that they were saying, “Let’s get rid of this tree and its fruit,” so [I did not know] that they intended to kill me, in order that no one would remember me [MTY].
20 Amma, ya Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, kai da kake yin shari’a da adalci kake gwada zuciya da kuma tunani, ka sa in ga sakayyar da za ka yi musu, gama a gare ka na danƙa maganata.
[Then I prayed], “Commander of the armies of angels, you judge people justly/fairly, and you examine everything that we are thinking [DOU]. Allow me to watch you getting revenge on the people [who want to kill me], because I trust that you will do for me what is right.”
21 “Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da mutanen Anatot, waɗanda suke neman ranka suna kuma cewa, ‘Kada ka yi annabci da sunan Ubangiji in ba haka za ka mutu a hannunmu’
It was the men of [my own town], Anathoth, who wanted to kill me, and they told me that they would kill me if I did not stop prophesying what Yahweh told me to say.
22 saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki yana cewa, ‘Zan hukunta su. Samarinsu za su mutu ta wurin takobi,’ya’yansu maza da mata kuwa ta wurin yunwa.
So the Commander of the armies of angels said [about them], “I will punish them. Their young men will be killed in wars, and their children will die because they have no food.
23 Babu raguwar da za a bar musu, domin zan kawo masifa a kan mutanen Anatot a shekarar hukuncinsu.’”
I have set a time when I will bring disasters to the people of Anathoth, and when that happens, none of them will remain alive.”
