Irmiya 22
1 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Ka gangara zuwa fadan sarkin Yahuda ka yi shelar wannan saƙo a can ka ce,
The LORD said, “Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak this word there:
2 ‘Ka ji maganar Ubangiji, ya sarkin Yahuda, kai da kake zaune kan gadon sarautar Dawuda, kai, da fadawanka da mutanenka waɗanda suke shiga ta waɗannan ƙofofi.
‘Hear the LORD’s word, king of Judah, who sits on David’s throne—you, your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates.
3 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, ka yi abin da yake gaskiya da kuma daidai. Ka kuɓutar da wannan da aka yi masa ƙwace daga hannun mai zaluntarsa. Kada ka yi abin da ba daidai ba ko ka cuci baƙo, maraya ko gwauruwa, kuma kada ka zub da jini marar laifi a wannan wuri.
The LORD says: “Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor. Do no wrong. Do no violence to the foreigner, the fatherless, or the widow. Don’t shed innocent blood in this place.
4 Gama in ka lura da bin waɗannan umarnai, to, sarakunan da suke zaune a gadon sarautar Dawuda za su shiga ta ƙofofin wannan fada, suna hawan kekunan yaƙi da dawakai, fadawansu da mutanensu suna musu rakiya.
For if you do this thing indeed, then kings sitting on David’s throne will enter in by the gates of this house, riding in chariots and on horses—they, their servants, and their people.
5 Amma in ba ku kiyaye waɗannan umarnai ba, in ji Ubangiji, na rantse da kaina cewa wannan fada za tă zama kufai.’”
But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself,” says the LORD, “that this house will become a desolation.”’”
6 Gama ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da wannan fadar sarkin Yahuda, “Ko da yake kina kamar Gileyad a gare ni, kamar ƙwanƙolin Lebanon, tabbatacce zan maishe ki hamada, kamar garuruwan da ba mazauna.
For the LORD says concerning the house of the king of Judah: “You are Gilead to me, the head of Lebanon. Yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited.
7 Zan aika da mai hallakarwa a kanki, kowane mutum da makamansa, za su kuma yayyanka gumaguman al’ul na ki masu kyau su jefa su cikin wuta.
I will prepare destroyers against you, everyone with his weapons, and they will cut down your choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
8 “Mutane daga al’ummai da yawa za su ratsa cikin wannan birni su kuma tambayi juna suna cewa, ‘Me ya sa Ubangiji ya yi haka da wannan babban birni?’
“Many nations will pass by this city, and they will each ask his neighbour, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this great city?’
9 Amsar kuwa za tă zama, ‘Domin sun keta alkawarin Ubangiji Allahnsu, suka yi sujada suka kuma bauta wa waɗansu alloli.’”
Then they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD their God, worshipped other gods, and served them.’”
10 Kada ku yi kuka domin sarkin da ya mutu ko ku yi makoki saboda rashinsa; a maimako, ku yi kuka mai zafi saboda wanda aka kai zaman bauta, domin ba zai ƙara dawowa ba ko ya ƙara ganin ƙasarsa ta haihuwa.
Don’t weep for the dead. Don’t bemoan him; but weep bitterly for him who goes away, for he will return no more, and not see his native country.
11 Gama ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da Shallum ɗan Yosiya, wanda ya gāji mahaifinsa a matsayin sarkin Yahuda amma bai bar wurin nan ba, “Ba zai ƙara dawowa ba.
For the LORD says touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went out of this place: “He won’t return there any more.
12 Zai mutu a inda suka kai shi zaman bauta; ba zai ƙara ganin wannan ƙasa ba.”
But he will die in the place where they have led him captive. He will see this land no more.”
13 “Kaiton wanda ya gina gidansa ta hanyar rashin adalci, ɗakunansa na sama kuma ta hanyar rashin gaskiya, yana sa mutanen ƙasarsa suna aiki a banza ba ya biyansu wahalarsu.
“Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his rooms by injustice; who uses his neighbour’s service without wages, and doesn’t give him his hire;
14 Yana cewa, ‘Zan gina wa kaina babban fada da manyan ɗakuna.’ Ta haka sai ya yi musu manyan tagogi ya manne musu al’ul ya yi musu ado kuma da ruwan ja.
who says, ‘I will build myself a wide house and spacious rooms,’ and cuts out windows for himself, with a cedar ceiling, and painted with red.
15 “Wannan zai mai da kai sarki ne in kana da al’ul a kai a kai? Mahaifinka bai kasance da abinci da abin sha ba? Ya yi abin da yake gaskiya da kuma daidai saboda haka kome ya kasance da lafiya da shi.
“Should you reign because you strive to excel in cedar? Didn’t your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him.
16 Ya kāre muradin matalauta da mabukata, ta haka kome ya tafi masa daidai. Ba abin da ake nufi da ba san ni ke nan ba?” In ji Ubangiji.
He judged the cause of the poor and needy; so then it was well. Wasn’t this to know me?” says the LORD.
17 “Amma idanunka da zuciyarka sun kahu kawai a kan ƙazamar riba, da a kan zub da jinin marar laifi da kuma a kan danniya da zalunci.”
But your eyes and your heart are only for your covetousness, for shedding innocent blood, for oppression, and for doing violence.”
18 Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa game da Yehohiyakim ɗan Yosiya sarkin Yahuda, “Ba za su yi kuka dominsa ba, ‘Kaito, ɗan’uwana! Kaito,’yar’uwata!’ Ba za su yi kuka dominsa ba, ‘Kaito, maigidana! Kaito, darajarsa!’
Therefore the LORD says concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: “They won’t lament for him, saying, ‘Ah my brother!’ or, ‘Ah sister!’ They won’t lament for him, saying ‘Ah lord!’ or, ‘Ah his glory!’
19 Za a binne shi kamar jaki za a ja shi a ƙasa a jefar a bayan ƙofofin Urushalima.”
He will be buried with the burial of a donkey, drawn and cast out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.”
20 “Ka haura zuwa Lebanon ka yi kuka, bari a ji muryarka a Bashan, yi kuka daga Abarim, gama an murƙushe dukan abokanka.
“Go up to Lebanon, and cry out. Lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all your lovers have been destroyed.
21 Na ja maka kunne sa’ad da kake zama lafiya, amma sai ka ce, ‘Ba zan saurara ba!’ Wannan halinka ne tun kana matashi; ba ka yi mini biyayya ba.
I spoke to you in your prosperity, but you said, ‘I will not listen.’ This has been your way from your youth, that you didn’t obey my voice.
22 Iska za tă koro dukan makiyayanka abokanka kuma za su tafi zaman bauta. Sa’an nan za ka sha kunya a kuma walaƙanta ka saboda dukan muguntarka.
The wind will feed all your shepherds, and your lovers will go into captivity. Surely then you will be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness.
23 Kai da kake zama a ‘Lebanon,’ kai da kake sheƙa a gine-ginen al’ul za ka yi nishi sa’ad da zafi ya auka maka, zafi kamar na mace mai naƙuda!
Inhabitant of Lebanon, who makes your nest in the cedars, how greatly to be pitied you will be when pangs come on you, the pain as of a woman in travail!
24 “Muddin ina raye,” in ji Ubangiji, “ko kai, Yehohiyacin ɗan Yehohiyakim sarkin Yahuda, ka zama zoben hatimin dama a hannuna na dama, zan kwaɓe ka.
“As I live,” says the LORD, “though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, I would still pluck you from there.
25 Zan ba da kai ga waɗanda suke neman ranka, waɗanda kake tsoro, ga Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon da kuma ga Babiloniyawa.
I would give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26 Zan jefar da kai da mahaifiyar da ta haife ka zuwa wata ƙasa, inda babu ɗayanku da aka haifa a wurin, a can kuma za ka mutu.
I will cast you out with your mother who bore you into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die.
27 Ba za ka ƙara dawo ƙasar da kake marmarin dawowa ba.”
But to the land to which their soul longs to return, there they will not return.”
28 Wannan mutum Yehohiyacin ne da aka rena, fasasshen tukunya, abin da babu wanda yake so? Me ya sa za a jefar da shi da’ya’yansa a jefar da su a ƙasar da ba su sani ba?
Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? Is he a vessel in which no one delights? Why are they cast out, he and his offspring, and cast into a land which they don’t know?
29 Ya ke ƙasa, ƙasa, ƙasa, ki ji maganar Ubangiji!
O earth, earth, earth, hear the LORD’s word!
30 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Ka rabu da wannan mutum sai ka ce marar’ya’ya, mutumin da ba zai yi nasara a rayuwarsa ba, gama babu zuriyarsa da za tă yi nasara babu wani da zai zauna a kursiyin Dawuda ko ya ƙara yin mulkin Yahuda.”
The LORD says, “Record this man as childless, a man who will not prosper in his days; for no more will a man of his offspring prosper, sitting on David’s throne and ruling in Judah.”
