Irmiya 15
1 Sai Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ko da Musa da Sama’ila za su tsaya a gabana, zuciyata ba za tă komo ga mutanen nan ba. Ka kore su daga gabana! Su tafi!
Then Yahweh said [this] to me: “Even if Moses and Samuel could [come back from their graves and] and stand in front of me [and plead with me for these Israeli people], I would not act mercifully [IDM] toward these people. [I would tell you], ‘Send them away from me. Cause them to leave me!’
2 In kuma suka tambaye ka, ‘Ina za mu tafi?’ Sai ka faɗa musu, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “‘Waɗanda aka ƙaddara ga mutuwa, ga mutuwa za su; waɗanda aka ƙaddara ga takobi, ga takobi za su; waɗanda aka ƙaddara ga yunwa, ga yunwa za su; waɗanda aka ƙaddara ga zaman bauta, ga zaman bauta za su.’
And if they ask you, ‘Where shall we go?’, tell them, ‘This is what Yahweh says: The ones that I say must die, will die: The ones that I say must die in wars [MTY], will die in wars. The ones that I say must die from hunger, will die from hunger. The ones that I say must be captured [and taken to other countries], will be captured [and taken to other countries].
3 “Zan aika musu da iri masu hallakarwa guda huɗu,” in ji Ubangiji, “takobi zai kashe, karnuka za su kwashe, tsuntsaye da namun jeji kuma su cinye su kuma hallaka.
I will send four things that will get rid of them: I will send [enemy soldiers using] swords to kill them. I will send wild dogs to drag away [their corpses]. I will send vultures to eat [their corpses]. And I will send [other] wild animals to eat what remains [of their corpses].
4 Zan sa su zama abin ƙyama ga dukan mulkokin duniya saboda abin da Manasse ɗan Hezekiya sarkin Yahuda ya aikata a Urushalima.
Because of [the wicked things that] King Manasseh did in Jerusalem, I will cause [people in] all the kingdoms of the earth to be horrified about [what will happen in Judah to] my people.
5 “Wa zai ji tausayinki, ya Urushalima? Wa zai yi makoki dominki? Wa zai dakata ya tambayi lafiyarki?
You [people of], no one will [RHQ] feel sorry for you. No one will [RHQ] weep/cry for you. No one will [RHQ] ask (how you are/if you are well).
6 Kin ƙi ni,” in ji Ubangiji. “Ki ci gaba da ja da baya. Ta haka zan ɗibiya hannuwana a kanki in hallaka ki; ba zan ƙara nuna miki jinƙai ba.
You people have abandoned me; you have continued to walk away [from me] [DOU]. So, I will lift up my fist to smash you; I will not act mercifully toward you any longer.
7 Zan sheƙe ki da abin sheƙewa a ƙofofin birnin ƙasar. Zan kawo baƙin ciki da hallaka a kan mutanena, gama ba su canja hanyoyinsu ba.
At the gates of your cities, I will [scatter you like a farmer scatters the chaff from his grain by] (winnowing it/throwing it up to allow the wind to blow the chaff away) [MET]. You, my people, have refused to turn away from your evil behavior. [So], I will get rid of you, and I will even cause your children to be killed.
8 Zan ƙara yawan gwaurayensu su fi yashin teku yawa. Da tsakar rana zan kawo mai hallakarwa a kan iyaye mata na samarinsu; farat ɗaya zan kawo musu wahala da razana.
I will cause there to be more widows [in Judah] than [there are grains of] sand on the seashore [HYP]. At noontime, [when people will not be expecting it to happen], I will cause [an enemy army] to attack you, an army that will destroy your young men and cause their mothers to weep. I will cause you to suddenly experience great suffering/pain and become very terrified.
9 Mahaifiya’ya’ya bakwai za tă suma ta ja numfashinta na ƙarshe. Ranarta zai fāɗi tun lokacin bai yi ba; za tă sha kunya a kuma wulaƙanta ta. Zan sa a kashe raguwa da takobi a gaban abokan gābansu,” in ji Ubangiji.
A woman who has seven children will become faint and (gasp for breath/be hardly able to breathe); [it will be as though] daylight will become darkness for her, [because most of] her children will be dead, and she will be disgraced and humiliated [DOU]. And her children who are still alive, I will enable your enemies to kill them. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.’”
10 Kaitona, mahaifiyata, da kika haife ni, mutumin da dukan ƙasa take faɗa take kuma gardama da shi! Ban ba da bashi ko in ci bashi ba, duk da haka kowa yana zagina.
[I said to] my mother, “I am very sad; I wish that you had not given birth to me; everyone in this land opposes me and quarrels with me. I am not a person who lends [money to people and threatens to sue/harm them if they do not pay me back when they should], and I am not a person who borrows [money from others and then refuses to pay it back], but everyone [HYP] curses me.”
11 Ubangiji ya ce, “Tabbatacce zan cece ka don alheri; tabbatacce zan sa abokan gābanka su yi roƙo gare ka a lokacin masifa da kuma lokacin wahala.
But Yahweh replied to me, “[Jeremiah], I will take care of you. And at times when your enemies have troubles and disasters, they will [come to you and] plead for you [to help them].”
12 “Mutum zai iya karye ƙarfe ƙarfe daga arewa, ko tagulla?
[Yahweh also told me to say to the people] of Judah, “Your enemies, who are [as strong as] iron or bronze, [will attack you] from the north; no one will be able to stop them.
13 “Dukiyarku da arzikinku zan ba da su ganima, babu tara, saboda duka zunubanku ko’ina a ƙasar.
I will give all the valuable possessions [of the people of Judah] to their enemies, without them paying for it. Their valuable possessions will be the payment/reward [that I will give them] because of all the sins that you have committed throughout your country.
14 Zan bautar da ku ga abokan gābanku a ƙasar da ba ku sani ba, gama fushina zai yi ƙuna kamar wuta da za tă yi ƙuna a kanku.”
I will tell your enemies to force you to become their prisoners, and to take you to other lands that you do not [even] know about, and force you to become their slaves. [That will happen] because I am extremely angry [with you]; my being angry is [like] [SIM] a fire that will burn forever.”
15 Ka gane, ya Ubangiji; ka tuna da ni ka kuma lura da ni. Ka yi mini ramuwa a kan masu tsananta mini. Cikin jimirinka, kada ka ɗauke ni; ka tuna yadda na sha zagi saboda kai.
[Then I said], “Yahweh, you know [what is happening to me]. [Please] come and (help me/take care of me). Punish those who are (persecuting me/causing me to suffer). [Please] do not continue to be patient with them and do not allow me to die now. It is (for your sake/because I serve you) that I am suffering.
16 Sa’ad da maganganunka suka zo, na cinye su; suka zama abin farin ciki zuciyata kuma ta yi murna, gama ana kirana da sunanka, Ya Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki.
Yahweh my God, you are the Commander of the armies of angels; and when you spoke to me, I was delighted with your message; it caused me to be joyful, and I eagerly accepted [MET] what you said because I belong to you. [IDM, MTY]
17 Ban taɓa zauna a cikin’yan tawaye ba, ban taɓa yi murna da su ba; na zauna ni kaɗai domin hannunka yana a kaina ka kuma sa na cika da haushi.
When the people were carousing together, I never joined them; I sat alone, because you [MTY] are the one who controls what I do. I was very angry [with those people because of their sins].
18 Me ya sa wahalata ba ta ƙarewa mikina kuma ba ya warkuwa? Za ka zama mini kamar rafi mai yaudara ne, kamar maɓulɓulan da ta kafe ne?
So, (why do you [allow] me to continue to suffer?/I do not understand why you allow me to continue to suffer.) [RHQ] It seems that [RHQ] my wounds cannot be healed. [Sometimes you help me, sometimes you do not help me]. It seems that you are as undependable as a brook that has water in it only during certain seasons; you are like a spring that has dried up.”
19 Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “In ka tuba, zan maido da kai don ka bauta mini; in ka ambaci maganganu masu kyau, ba marasa kyau ba, za ka zama kakakina. Bari wannan mutane su juyo gare ka, amma kada ka juye gare su.
Then Yahweh [replied], “If you begin again to [trust in] me, I will restore you, in order that you can continue to serve me. If you proclaim good/valuable messages and not worthless ones, you will continue to be the one who speaks what I tell you to say. You must cause the people to pay attention to what you say; you must not pay attention to what they say.
20 Zan mai da kai katanga ga wannan mutane, katanga mai ƙarfi na tagulla; za su yi yaƙi da kai amma ba za su yi nasara a kanka ba, gama ina tare da kai don in kuɓutar in kuma cece ka,” in ji Ubangiji.
They will fight against you, but I will protect you, like [SIM] people are protected from their enemies by a bronze wall. They will not defeat you, because I will be with you, and I will protect and rescue [DOU] you.
21 “Zan cece ka daga hannuwan mugaye in ɓamɓare ka daga hannun marasa tausayi.”
[Truly], I will keep you safe from those wicked people, I will rescue you when you are seized by cruel people. [That will happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
