Irmiya 16
1 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
And thou shalt not take a wife, saith the Lord God of Israel:
2 “Kada ka yi aure ka haifi’ya’ya maza da mata a wannan wuri.”
and there shall be no son born to thee, nor daughter in this place.
3 Gama ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da’ya’ya maza da matan da aka haifa a wannan ƙasa da kuma game da matan da suke iyayensu da suke mazan da iyayensu.
For thus saith the Lord concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that have born them, and concerning their fathers that have begotten them in this land;
4 “Za su mutu da muguwar cuta. Ba za a yi kuka dominsu ba, ba kuwa za a binne su ba, amma za a bar su a juji. Takobi da yunwa ne za su hallaka su, gawawwakinsu za su zama abincin tsuntsayen sararin sama da kuma namun jeji na duniya.”
They shall die of grievous death; they shall not be lamented, nor buried; they shall be for an example on the face of the earth; and they shall be for the wild beasts of the land, and for the birds of the sky: they shall fall by the sword, and shall be consumed with famine.
5 Gama ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Kada ka shiga gidan da akwai abincin makoki; kada ka tafi ka yi makoki ko ka nuna juyayi, domin na janye albarkata, ƙaunata da tausayina daga wannan mutane,” in ji Ubangiji.
Thus saith the Lord, Enter not into their mourning feast, and go not to lament, and mourn not for them: for I have removed my peace from this people.
6 “Manya da ƙanana duka za su mutu a wannan ƙasa. Ba za a binne su ba, ba kuwa za a yi makokinsu ba, kuma ba wanda zai tsaga kansa ko ya aske kansa saboda su.
They shall not bewail them, nor make cuttings for them, and they shall not shave themselves [for them]:
7 Ba wanda zai ba da abinci don yă ta’azantar da waɗanda suke makoki saboda matattu, kai, ko saboda mahaifi ko mahaifiya ma ba kuwa wani da zai ba da abin sha don yă ta’azantar da su.
and there shall be no bread broken in mourning for them for consolation over the dead: they shall not give one to drink a cup for consolation over his father or his mother.
8 “Kada kuma ka shiga gidan da ake biki ka zauna don ci da sha.
Thou shalt not enter into the banquet-house, to sit with them to eat and to drink.
9 Gama ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa a idanunka da kuma a kwanakinka zan kawo ƙarshen muryar farin ciki da murna da kuma muryoyin amarya da ango a wannan wuri.
For thus saith the Lord God of Israel; Behold, I [will] make to cease out of this place before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.
10 “Sa’ad da ka faɗa wa waɗannan mutane wannan duka suka kuma tambaye ka, ‘Me ya sa Ubangiji ya ƙaddara irin wannan babban masifa a kanmu? Wace mugunta muka yi? Wane zunubi muka aikata wa Ubangiji Allahnmu?’
And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt report to this people all these words, and they shall say to thee, Wherefore has the Lord pronounced against us all these evils? what is our unrighteousness? and what is our sin which we have sinned before the Lord our God?
11 Sai ka ce musu, ‘Wannan ya zama haka domin kakanninku sun rabu da ni,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘suka bi waɗansu alloli suka kuma bauta musu. Suka rabu da ni, ba su kuwa kiyaye dokata ba.
Then thou shalt say to them, Because your fathers forsook me, saith the Lord, and went after strange gods and served them, and worshipped them, and forsook me, and kept not my law;
12 Amma kun yi laifi fiye da kakanninku. Duba yadda kowannenku yana bin taurin muguwar zuciyarsa a maimakon yin mini biyayya.
(and ye sinned worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the lusts of your own evil heart, so as not to hearken to me);
13 Saboda haka zan fitar da ku daga wannan ƙasa zuwa wata ƙasar da ku da kakanninku ba ku taɓa sani ba, a can kuwa za ku bauta wa waɗansu alloli dare da rana, gama ba zan nuna muku tagomashi ba.’
therefore I will cast you off from this good land into a land which neither ye nor your fathers have known; and ye shall serve their other gods, who shall have no mercy upon you.
14 “Amma fa, kwanaki suna zuwa,” in ji Ubangiji, “da mutane ba za su ƙara cewa, ‘Muddin Ubangiji yana raye, wanda ya fitar da Isra’ilawa daga Masar,’
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when they shall no more say, The Lord lives, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
15 amma za su ce, ‘Muddin Ubangiji yana raye, wanda ya fitar da Isra’ilawa daga ƙasar arewa da kuma daga dukan ƙasashe da ya kora su.’ Gama zan komo da su zuwa ƙasar da na ba wa kakanninsu.
but, The Lord lives, who brought up the house of Israel from the land of the north, and from all countries whither they were thrust out: and I will restore them to their own land, which I gave to their fathers.
16 “Amma yanzu zan aiko a kira masunta masu yawa su zo,” in ji Ubangiji, “za su kuma kama su. Bayan wannan zan aiko a kira mafarauta su zo, su farauce su daga kowane dutse da tudu da kuma daga kogwannin duwatsu.
Behold, I [will] send many fishers, saith the Lord, and they shall fish them; and afterward I will send many hunters, and they shall hunt them upon every mountain, and upon every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
17 Idanuna suna a kan dukan hanyoyinsu; ba a ɓoye suke daga gare ni, kuma zunubansu ba a ɓoye suke a idanuna ba.
For mine eyes are upon all their ways; and their iniquities have not been hidden from mine eyes.
18 Zan riɓaɓɓanya sakayyar da zan yi musu saboda muguntarsu da zunubinsu, domin sun ƙazantar da ƙasata da ƙazantattun gumakansu marasa rai, suka kuma cika abin gādona da gumakansu na banƙyama.”
And I will recompense their mischiefs doubly, and their sins, whereby they have profaned my land with the carcases of their abominations, and with their iniquities, whereby they have trespassed against mine inheritance.
19 Ya Ubangiji, ƙarfina da katangana, mafakata a lokacin damuwa, gare ka al’ummai za su zo daga iyakokin duniya su ce, “Kakanninmu ba su mallaki kome ba sai allolin ƙarya, gumakan banza da ba su yi musu amfani ba.
O Lord, thou art my strength, and mine help, and my refuge in days of evil: to thee the Gentiles shall come from the end of the earth, and shall say, How vain [were the] idols [which] our fathers procured to themselves, and there is no help in them.
20 Mutane kan yi allolinsu ne? I, amma waɗannan ba alloli ba ne!”
Will a man make gods for himself, whereas these are no gods?
21 “Saboda haka zan koya musu a wannan lokaci zan koya musu ikona da ƙarfina. Sa’an nan za su sani cewa sunana Ubangiji ne.
Therefore, behold, I will at this time manifest my hand to them, and will make known to them my power; and they shall know that my name is the Lord.
