< Irmiya 16 >
1 Sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo mini cewa,
The word of Jehovah came also to me, saying,
2 “Kada ka yi aure ka haifi’ya’ya maza da mata a wannan wuri.”
"You shall not take a wife, neither shall you have sons or daughters, 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 says Jehovah concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who became their father 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 grievous deaths: they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried; they shall be as dung on the surface of the ground; and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their dead bodies shall be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.
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.
For thus says Jehovah, 'Do not enter into the house of mourning, neither go to lament, neither bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, says Jehovah, even loving kindness and tender mercies.
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.
Both great and small shall die in this land; they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald 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.
neither shall men break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.
8 “Kada kuma ka shiga gidan da ake biki ka zauna don ci da sha.
You shall not go into the house of feasting 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 says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Look, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes and in your days, the voice of mirth 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?’
It shall happen, when you shall show this people all these words, and they shall tell you, 'Why has Jehovah pronounced all this great evil against us? Or what is our iniquity? Or what is our sin that we have committed against Jehovah 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 you shall tell them, 'Because your fathers have forsaken me, says Jehovah, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshiped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;
12 Amma kun yi laifi fiye da kakanninku. Duba yadda kowannenku yana bin taurin muguwar zuciyarsa a maimakon yin mini biyayya.
and you have done evil more than your fathers; for, look, you walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that you do not listen 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 forth out of this land into the land that you have not known, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night; for I will show you no favor.'
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 look, the days come," says Jehovah, "that it shall no more be said, 'As Jehovah lives, who 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, 'As Jehovah lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had driven them.' I will bring them again into their land that 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.
Look, I will send for many fishermen," says Jehovah, "and they shall fish them up; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts 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 my eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from my face, neither is their iniquity concealed from my 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.”
First I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have polluted my land with the carcasses of their detestable things, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations."
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.
"Jehovah, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge in the day of affliction, to you shall the nations come from the farthest parts of the earth, and shall say, 'Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, vanity and things in which there is no profit.
20 Mutane kan yi allolinsu ne? I, amma waɗannan ba alloli ba ne!”
Shall a man make to himself gods, which yet 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 look, I will cause them to know, this once will I cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is Jehovah.
