Irmiya 13
1 Ga abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa mini, “Tafi ka sayo abin ɗamara na lilin ka sha ɗamara da shi, amma kada ka bari yă taɓa ruwa.”
Thus says the Lord, Go and procure for yourself a linen girdle, and put it about your loins, and let it not be put in water.
2 Saboda haka na sayo abin ɗamara, yadda Ubangiji ya umarce ni, na kuwa sha ɗamara da shi.
So I procured the girdle according to the word of the Lord, and put it about my loins.
3 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini sau na biyu cewa,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
4 “Ka ɗauki abin ɗamara da ka sayo, wanda ka ɗaura, ka tafi yanzu zuwa Fera ka ɓoye shi a cikin kogon dutse.”
Take the girdle that is upon your loins, and arise, and go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.
5 Saboda haka na tafi na ɓoye shi a Fera, yadda Ubangiji ya ce mini.
So I went, and hid it by the Euphrates, as the Lord commanded me.
6 Bayan’yan kwanaki sai Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Tafi yanzu zuwa Fera ka ɗauko abin ɗamara da na ce maka ka ɓoye a can.”
And it came to pass after many days, that the Lord said to me, Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take thence the girdle, which I commanded you to hide there.
7 Sai na tafi Fera da haka na ɗauko abin ɗamara daga wurin da na ɓoye shi, amma abin ɗamara yanzu ya lalace ya zama ba shi da amfani sam.
So I went to the river Euphrates, and dug, and took the girdle out of the place where I [had] buried it: and, behold, it was rotten, utterly good for nothing.
8 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Thus says the Lord,
9 “Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, ‘Haka zan lalatar da alfarmar Yahuda da yawan alfarmar Urushalima.
Thus will I mar the pride of Juda, and the pride of Jerusalem;
10 Waɗannan mugayen mutane, waɗanda suka ƙi saurari maganata, waɗanda suka biye wa taurin zuciyarsu suka bi waɗansu alloli don su bauta su kuma yi musu sujada, za su zama kamar wannan abin ɗamara gaba ɗaya marasa amfani!
[even] this great pride [of the men] that will not listen to my words, and have gone after strange gods, to serve them, and to worship them: and they shall be as this girdle, which can be used for nothing.
11 Gama kamar yadda abin ɗamara kan kame gindin mutum tam, haka zan daure dukan gidan Isra’ila da dukan gidan Yahuda gare ni,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘domin su zama jama’a, da suna, da yabo, da daraja a gare ni, amma sun ƙi ji.’
For as a girdle cleaves about the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave to myself the house of Israel, and the whole house of Juda; that they might be to me a famous people, and a praise, and a glory: but they did not listen to me.
12 “Faɗa musu cewa, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa a cika kowace salkar ruwan inabi da ruwan inabi.’ In kuwa suka ce maka, ‘Ba mu san cewa ya kamata a cika kowace salkar ruwan inabi da ruwan inabi ba?’
And you shall say to this people, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and it shall come to pass, if they shall say to you, Shall we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine? that you shall say to them,
13 Sai ka ce musu, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, zan cika dukan waɗanda suke zama a ƙasar da buguwa, har ma da sarakunan da suke zama a kursiyin Dawuda, firistoci, annabawa da dukan waɗanda suke zaune a Urushalima.
Thus says the Lord, Behold, I [will] fill the inhabitants of this land, and their kings the sons of David that sit upon their throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and Juda and all the dwellers in Jerusalem, with strong drink.
14 Zan fyaɗe su a kan juna, iyaye da’ya’yansu maza, in ji Ubangiji. Tausayi ko jinƙai, ko juyayi ba zai hana ni hallaka su ba.’”
And I will scatter them a man and his brother, and their fathers and their sons together: I will not have compassion, says the Lord, and I will not spare, neither will I pity [to save them] from destruction.
15 Ku ji ku kuma saurara, kada ku yi girman kai, gama Ubangiji ya yi magana.
Hear you, and give ear, and be not proud: for the Lord has spoken.
16 Ku ɗaukaka Ubangiji Allahnku kafin ya kawo duhu, kafin ƙafafunku su yi tuntuɓe a kan tuddai masu duhu. Za ku sa zuciya ganin haske amma zai mai da shi duhu mai kauri ya kuma canja shi zuwa duhu baƙi ƙirin.
Give glory to the Lord your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and you shall wait for light, and behold the shadow of death, and they shall be brought into darkness.
17 Amma in ba ku saurara ba, zan yi kuka a ɓoye saboda girmankanku; idanuna za su yi kuka mai zafi, suna zub da hawaye ƙwarai, domin zan kwashe garken Ubangiji zuwa zaman bauta.
But if you will not listen, your soul shall weep in secret because of pride, and your eyes shall pour down tears, because the Lord's flock is sorely bruised.
18 Ka faɗa wa sarki da kuma mahaifiyar sarauniya cewa, “Ku sauko daga kursiyinku, gama rawaninku na ɗaukaka za su fāɗi daga kawunanku.”
Say you to the king and the princes, Humble yourselves, and sit down; for your crown of glory is removed from your head.
19 Za a kulle biranen da suke a Negeb, kuma babu wanda zai buɗe su. Za a kwashe dukan Yahuda zuwa zaman bauta, za a kwashe su tas.
The cities toward the south were shut, and there was none to open [them]: Juda is removed [into captivity, ]they have suffered a complete removal.
20 Ku tā da idanunku ku ga waɗanda suke zuwa daga arewa. Ina garken da aka ba ku tumakin da kuke taƙama a kai?
Lift up your eyes, O Jerusalem, and behold them that come from the north; where is the flock that was given you, the sheep of your glory?
21 Me za ku ce sa’ad da Ubangiji ya naɗa muku waɗanda ku kanku kuka koya musu a matsayi abokai na musamman? Ashe, azaba ba za tă auko muku kamar na mace mai naƙuda ba?
What will you say when they shall visit you, for you did teach them lessons for rule against yourself; shall not pangs seize you as a woman in travail?
22 In kuma kuka tambaye kanku “Me ya sa wannan ya faru da mu?” Wannan kuwa saboda yawan zunubanku ne ya sa fatarinku ya yage aka kuma wahalshe jikinku.
And if you should say in your heart, Therefore have these things happened to me? Because of the abundance of your iniquity have your skirts been discovered, that your heels might be exposed.
23 Mutumin Habasha zai iya canja launin fatar jikinsa ko damisa ta canja dabbare dabbarenta? Ba za ku iya yin alheri ku da kuka saba da yin mugunta ba.
If the Ethiopian shall change his skin, or the leopardess her spots, then shall you be able to do good, having learned evil.
24 “Zan watsar da ku kamar yayin da iskar hamada take hurawa.
So I scattered them as sticks carried by the wind into the wilderness.
25 Rabonku ne wannan, sashen da na auka muku,” in ji Ubangiji “domin kun manta da ni kuka kuma dogara ga allolin ƙarya.
Thus is your lot, and the reward of your disobedience to me, says the Lord; as you did forget me, and trust in lies,
26 Zan kware fatarinku sama ya rufe fuskarku don a iya ga tsiraicinku
I also will expose your skirts upon your face, and your shame shall be seen;
27 zinace zinacenku da haniniya kamar dawakai, karuwancinku na bankunya! Na ga ayyukanku na banƙyama a kan tuddai da kuma a filaye. Kaitonki, ya Urushalima! Har yaushe za ki ci gaba da rashin tsarki?”
your adultery also, and your neighing, and the looseness of your fornication: on the hills and in the fields I have seen your abominations. Woe to you, O Jerusalem, for you have not been purified so as to follow me; how long yet [shall it be]?
