Irmiya 12
1 Kullum kai mai adalci ne, ya Ubangiji, sa’ad da na kawo ƙara a gabanka. Duk da haka zan yi magana da kai game da shari’arka. Me ya sa mugaye suke nasara? Me ya sa dukan maciya amana suke zama ba damuwa?
Right wouldest Thou be, O LORD, were I to contend with Thee, yet will I reason with Thee: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? Wherefore are all they secure that deal very treacherously?
2 Ka dasa su, sun kuwa yi saiwa; sun yi girma suna ba da’ya’ya. Kullum sunanka yana a bakinsu amma kana nesa da zuciyarsu.
Thou hast planted them, yea, they have taken root; they grow, yea, they bring forth fruit; Thou art near in their mouth, and far from their reins.
3 Duk da haka ka san ni, ya Ubangiji; kana ganina ka kuma gwada tunanina game da kai. Ka ja su kamar tumakin da za a yanka! Ka ware su don ranar yanka!
But Thou, O LORD, knowest me, Thou seest me, and triest my heart toward Thee; pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.
4 Har yaushe ƙasar za tă kasance busasshiya ciyawar kowane fili ta bushe? Domin waɗanda suke zaune cikinta mugaye ne, dabbobi da tsuntsaye sun hallaka. Ban da haka ma, mutane suna cewa, “Ba zai ga abin da yake faruwa da mu ba.”
How long shall the land mourn, and the herbs of the whole field wither? For the wickedness of them that dwell therein, the beasts are consumed, and the birds; because they said: 'He seeth not our end.'
5 “In ka yi tsere da mutane a ƙafa suka kuma gajiyar da kai, yaya za ka yi gasa da dawakai? In ka yi tuntuɓe a lafiyayyiyar ƙasa, ƙaƙa za ka yi a kurmin Urdun?
'If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? And though in a land of peace thou art secure, yet how wilt thou do in the thickets of the Jordan?
6 ’Yan’uwanka, iyalinka har su ma sun bashe ka; sun tā da kuka mai ƙarfi a kanka. Kada ka amince da su, ko da yake suna faɗa maganganu masu kyau game da kai.
For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have dealt treacherously with thee, even they have cried aloud after thee; believe them not, though they speak fair words unto thee.'
7 “Zan yashe gidana, in rabu da gādona; Zan ba da wadda nake ƙauna a hannuwan abokan gābanta.
I have forsaken My house, I have cast off My heritage; I have given the dearly beloved of My soul into the hand of her enemies.
8 Gādona ya zama mini kamar zaki a kurmi. Yana mini ruri; saboda haka na ƙi shi.
My heritage is become unto Me as a lion in the forest; she hath uttered her voice against Me; therefore have I hated her.
9 Ashe, gādona bai zama mini kamar dabbare dabbaren tsuntsu mai cin nama da sauran tsuntsaye masu cin nama suka kewaye shi da faɗa ba? Tafi ka tattaro dukan namun jeji; ka kawo su su ci.
Is My heritage unto Me as a speckled bird of prey? Are the birds of prey against her round about? Come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field, bring them to devour.
10 Makiyaya masu yawa za su lalace gonar inabina su tattake gonata; za su mai da gonata mai kyau kango marar amfani.
Many shepherds have destroyed My vineyard, they have trodden My portion under foot, they have made My pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.
11 Za tă zama kango, busasshiya da kuma kango a gabana; ƙasar duka za tă zama kango domin ba wanda ya kula.
They have made it a desolation, it mourneth unto Me, being desolate; the whole land is made desolate, because no man layeth it to heart.
12 A kan dukan tsaunukan nan na hamada masu hallakarwa za su zo, gama takobin Ubangiji zai ci daga wannan iyaka ƙasa zuwa wancan; ba wanda zai zauna lafiya.
Upon all the high hills in the wilderness spoilers are come; for the sword of the LORD devoureth from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land, no flesh hath peace.
13 Za su shuka alkama, su girbe ƙayayyuwa; za su gajiyar da kansu, ba za su kuwa sami kome ba. Saboda haka ku sha kunyar abin da kuka girbe saboda zafin fushin Ubangiji.”
They have sown wheat, and have reaped thorns; they have put themselves to pain, they profit not; be ye then ashamed of your increase, because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
14 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Game da dukan mugayen maƙwabtana waɗanda suka ƙwace gādon da na ba wa mutanena Isra’ila kuwa, zan tumɓuke su daga ƙasashensu zan kuma tumɓuke gidan Yahuda daga cikinsu.
Thus saith the LORD: As for all Mine evil neighbours, that touch the inheritance which I have caused My people Israel to inherit, behold, I will pluck them up from off their land, and will pluck up the house of Judah from among them.
15 Amma bayan na tumɓuke su, zan sāke jin tausayi in komo da kowannensu zuwa gādonsa da kuma ƙasarsa.
And it shall come to pass, after that I have plucked them up, I will again have compassion on them; and I will bring them back, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.
16 In kuma suka koyi al’amuran mutanena sosai suka kuma yi rantsuwa da sunana, suna cewa, ‘Muddin Ubangiji yana raye’ kamar yadda sun taɓa koya wa jama’ata yin rantsuwa da Ba’al, sa’an nan za su kahu a cikin jama’ata.
And it shall come to pass, if they will diligently learn the ways of My people to swear by My name: 'As the LORD liveth,' even as they taught My people to swear by Baal; then shall they be built up in the midst of My people.
17 Amma duk al’ummar da ba tă saurara ba, zan tumɓuke ta ɗungum in kuma hallaka ta,” in ji Ubangiji.
But if they will not hearken, then will I pluck up that nation, plucking up and destroying it, saith the LORD.
