Irmiya 39
1 A shekara ta tara ta Zedekiya sarkin Yahuda, a wata na goma, Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya fita yaƙi da Urushalima da dukan sojojinsa ya kuma yi mata ƙawanya.
In the ninth year and tenth month of Zedekiah king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came with all his army against Jerusalem and besieged it.
2 A rana ta tara ga watan huɗu a shekara ta goma sha ɗaya ta mulkin Zedekiya, sai aka huda katanga.
In the eleventh year and fourth month of Zedekiah, on the ninth day of the month, the city was broken into.
3 Sa’an nan dukan fadawan sarkin Babilon suka shiga suka zazzauna a Ƙofar Tsakiya. Wato, Nergal-Sharezer na Samgar-Nebo, Sarsekim wani babban hafsa, Nergal-Sharezer bafade mai girma da dukan sauran fadawan sarkin Babilon.
Then all the officials of the king of Babylon came and sat in the middle gate: Nebo-Sarsekim, Samgar Nebo, and Sarsechim, an important official. Nebo-Sarsekim was a high official and all the rest were the officials of the king of Babylon.
4 Sa’ad da Zedekiya sarkin Yahuda da dukan sojoji suka gan su, sai suka gudu; suka bar birnin da dare ta hanyar lambun sarki, ta ƙofar da take tsakanin katanga biyu, suka nufi waje Araba.
It happened that when Zedekiah, king of Judah, and all his fighting men saw them, they fled. They went out at night from the city by the king's garden path, through the gate between the two walls. The king went out in the direction of the Arabah.
5 Amma sojojin Babiloniyawa suka bi su, suka ci wa Zedekiya a filayen Yeriko. Suka kama shi suka kai shi wurin Nebukadnezzar a Ribla a ƙasar Hamat, inda aka yanke masa hukunci.
But the army of Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of the Jordan River valley near Jericho. Then they captured him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where Nebuchadnezzar passed sentence on him.
6 A can Ribla sarkin Babilon ya kashe’ya’yan Zedekiya a idanunsa aka kuma kashe dukan manyan mutanen Yahuda.
The king of Babylon slaughtered Zedekiah's sons before his own eyes at Riblah. He also slaughtered all the noblemen of Judah.
7 Sa’an nan ya ƙwaƙule idanun Zedekiya ya kuma buga masa ƙuƙumi, ya kai shi Babilon.
Then he put out Zedekiah's eyes and bound him in bronze chains in order to take him to Babylon.
8 Sai Babiloniyawa suka cinna wa fadar da kuma gidajen mutane wuta suka farfasa katangar Urushalima.
Then the Chaldeans burned the king's house and the people's houses. They also tore down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 Nebuzaradan shugaban matsaran sarki ya kwashi mutanen da suka rage a birnin zuwa zaman bauta a Babilon, tare da waɗanda suka riga suka tafi wurinsa, da kuma sauran mutanen.
Nebuzaradan, the commander of the king's bodyguards, took into exile the rest of the people who were left in the city. This included the people who had deserted to the Chaldeans and the rest of the people who were left in the city.
10 Amma Nebuzaradan shugaban matsaran ya bar waɗansu matalauta a ƙasar Yahuda, su da ba su da kome; a lokacin kuwa ya ba su gonakin inabi da kuma filaye.
But Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards allowed the poorest people who had nothing for themselves to remain in the land of Judah. He gave them vineyards and fields on that same day.
11 To, fa, Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya ba da wannan umarnai game da Irmiya ta wurin Nebuzaradan shugaban matsaran sarki cewa,
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had given an order about Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards. He had said,
12 “Ka ɗauke shi ka lura da shi da kyau, kada ka yi masa wani mugun abu, amma ka yi masa dukan abin da yake so.”
“Take him and care for him. Do not harm him. Do for him anything he tells you.”
13 Saboda haka Nebuzaradan shugaban matsara, Nebushazban babban hafsa, Nergal-Sharezer bafade mai girma da sauran hafsoshin sarkin Babilon
So Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards, Nebushazban the high eunuch, Nergal-Sharezer the high official, and all the most important officials of the king of Babylon sent men out.
14 suka aika aka kawo Irmiya daga filin matsar. Suka miƙa shi ga Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam, ɗan Shafan, don yă kai shi gidansa. Saboda haka ya zauna a can a cikin mutanensa.
Their men took Jeremiah from the courtyard of the guard and entrusted him to Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, to take him home, so Jeremiah stayed among the people.
15 Yayinda aka kulle Irmiya a sansanin matsara, maganar Ubangiji ta zo masa cewa,
Now the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah while he was under arrest in the courtyard of the guard, saying,
16 “Tafi ka faɗa wa Ebed-Melek mutumin Kush, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa ina gab da cika maganata a kan wannan birni ta wurin masifa, ba wadata ba. A lokacin za tă cika a idanunka.
“Speak to Ebed-Melek the Cushite and say, 'Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this: See, I am about to carry out my words against this city for disaster and not for good. For they will all come true before you on that day.
17 Amma zan kuɓutar da kai a wannan rana, in ji Ubangiji; ba zan ba da kai ga waɗanda kake tsoronsu ba.
But I will rescue you on that day—this is Yahweh's declaration—and you will not be given into the hand of the men whom you fear.
18 Zan cece ka; ba za ka mutu ta wurin takobi ba amma za ka tsira da ranka, domin ka dogara gare ni, in ji Ubangiji.’”
For I will certainly rescue you. You will not fall by the sword. You will escape with your life, since you trust in me—this was Yahweh's declaration.'”
