< Irmiya 19 >
1 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Tafi ka sayo tulu a wurin mai ginin tukwane. Ka ɗauki waɗansu dattawan jama’a da kuma na firistoci
Thus said Yahweh, Go and buy a potter’s earthen bottle, —and take of the elders of the people, and of the elders of the priests;
2 ku fita zuwa Kwarin Ben Hinnom, kusa da mashigin Ƙofar Kasko. A can ka furta maganganun da na faɗa maka,
Then shalt thou go forth into the valley of Ben-hinnom, which is at the opening of the gate of potsherds; and proclaim there the words which I shall speak unto thee;
3 ka ce, ‘Ku ji maganar Ubangiji, ya sarakunan Yahuda da kuma mutanen Urushalima. Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa ku saurara! Zan kawo masifa a wannan wuri, wanda duk ya ji, kunnuwansa za su kaɗa.
and shalt say, —Hear ye the word of Yahweh, O kings of Judah And inhabitants of Jerusalem, —Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts—God of Israel Behold me! bringing in calamity upon this place, which shall cause the ears of every one that heareth it, to tingle:
4 Gama sun yashe ni suka kuma mai da wannan wuri ya zama na baƙin alloli; sun ƙone hadayu a cikinsa wa allolin da ko su ko kakanninsu ko sarakunan Yahuda ba su taɓa sani ba, suka kuma cika wannan wuri da jini marasa laifi.
Because they have forsaken me, And have treated this as a foreign place, And have burned incense therein to other gods, which neither they, nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah, have known; And have filled this place with the blood of innocents;
5 Suka gina masujadai na kan tudu na Ba’al don su ƙona’ya’yansu maza a cikin wuta a matsayin hadaya ga Ba’al abin da ban umarta ba, ban ambata ba, bai kuma zo mini ba.
And have built the high places of Baal for burning up their sons in the fire as ascending-sacrifices to Baal, —Which I commanded not, Nor spake, Neither came it up on my heart,
6 Saboda haka ku lura, kwanaki suna zuwa, in ji Ubangiji, sa’ad da mutane ba za su ƙara ce da wannan wuri Tofet ko Kwarin Ben Hinnom ba, amma za su ce da shi Kwarin Kisa.
Therefore, lo! days coming, Declareth Yahweh, When this place shall be called no longer The Topheth, or The Valley of Ben-hinnom, —but—The Valley of Slaughter;
7 “‘A wannan wuri zan lalace dabarun Yahuda da na Urushalima. Zan sa a kashe su da takobi a gaban abokan gābansu, a hannuwan waɗanda suke neman ransu, zan kuma ba da gawawwakinsu su zama abinci ga tsuntsayen sararin sama da kuma namun jeji.
And I will pour out the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, And I will cause them to fall by the sword, before their enemies, and by the hand of them who seek their life, —
8 Zan ragargazar da wannan birni in mai da shi abin reni, duk wanda ya wuce zai yi mamaki ya kuma yi tsaki saboda dukan masifunsa.
And I will give their dead bodies for food, to the bird of the heavens and to the beast of the earth; And I will make this city a desolation and a hissing, —every one that passeth by it, shall be astonished and hiss over all her wounds;
9 Zan sa su ci naman’ya’yansu maza da mata, za su kuma ci naman juna a lokacin damuwar ƙawanya da abokan gāban da suke neman ransu za su yi musu.’
And I will suffer them to eat the flesh of their sons, and the flesh of their daughters, yea every one—the flesh of his friend, will they eat, —in the siege and in the straitness, wherewith, their enemies, and they who seek their lives, will straiten them.
10 “Sa’an nan ka fasa tulun yayinda waɗanda suka tafi tare da kai suna duba,
Then shalt thou break the bottle, before the eyes of the men who are walking with thee;
11 ka kuma ce musu, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki yana cewa zan farfasa wannan al’umma da wannan birni kamar yadda aka farfasa wannan tulu mai ginin tukwane ba kuwa zai gyaru ba. Za a binne matattu a Tofet har sai ba sauran wuri.
and shalt say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts—Thus and thus, will I break this people, and this city, As one breaketh the vessel of a potter, which cannot be made whole any more, —And in Topheth, shall they bury, for want of place to bury.
12 Ga abin da zan yi wa wannan wuri da waɗanda suke zaune a nan, in ji Ubangiji. Zan mai da wannan birni kamar Tofet.
Thus, will I do to this place Declareth Yahweh, And to the inhabitants thereof, —Even making this city like Topheth:
13 Gidaje a Urushalima da waɗannan na sarakunan Yahuda za su ƙazantu kamar wannan wuri, Tofet, dukan gidajen da suke ƙone turare a kan rufi wa duk rundunan taurari suna kuma zuba hadayun sha ga sauran alloli.’”
Yea, the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah, shall like the place of Topheth, be places defiled, —even all the houses upon whose roofs they burned incense to all the host of the heavens, and poured out drink-offerings to other gods.
14 Sa’an nan Irmiya ya komo daga Tofet, inda Ubangiji ya aike shi don yă yi annabci, ya tsaya a filin haikalin Ubangiji ya ce wa mutane duka,
Then entered Jeremiah out of Topheth, whither Yahweh had sent him to prophesy, —and stood in the court of the house of Yahweh, and said unto all the people:
15 “Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, ‘Ku saurara! Zan kawo wa wannan birni da ƙauyukan da suke kewayensa kowace masifar da na furta a kansu, domin sun yi taurinkai, ba su kuwa saurari maganata ba.’”
Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, Behold me! brining in against this city, and upon all the cities thereof, The whole calamity which I have pronounced against her, —Because they stiffened their neck, that they might not hear my words.
