Irmiya 42
1 Sa’an nan dukan shugabannin sojoji, haɗe da Yohanan ɗan Kareya da Yezaniya ɗan Hoshahiya, da dukan mutane daga ƙarami zuwa babba, suka zo wurin
THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS from the Lord in the days of Joakim, king of Juda, saying,
2 Irmiya annabi suka ce masa, “Muna roƙonka ka ji kukanmu ka kuma yi addu’a ga Ubangiji Allahnka saboda dukan wannan raguwar mutane. Gama kamar yadda kake gani yanzu, ko da yake dā muna da yawa, yanzu ɗan kaɗan muka rage.
Go to the house of the Archabin, and thou shalt bring them to the house of the Lord, into one of the courts, and give them wine to drink.
3 Ka yi addu’a cewa Ubangiji Allahnka zai faɗa mana inda za mu tafi da kuma abin da za mu yi.”
So I brought forth Jechonias the son of Jeremin the son of Chabasin, and his brethren, and his sons, and all the family of the Archabin;
4 Sai Irmiya ya amsa ya ce, “Na ji ku, tabbatacce zan yi addu’a ga Ubangiji Allahnku yadda kuka roƙa; zan faɗa muku duk abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa ba kuwa zan ɓoye muku kome ba.”
and I brought them into the house of the Lord, into the chamber of the sons of Joanan, the son of Ananias, the son of Godolias, a man of God, who dwells near the house of the princes that are over the house of Maasaeas the son of Selom, who kept the court.
5 Sa’an nan suka ce wa Irmiya, “Ubangiji ya zama shaida na gaskiya da kuma aminci a kanmu in ba mu yi bisa da duk abin da Ubangiji Allahnka ya aike ka ka faɗa mana ba.
And I set before them a jar of wine, and cups, and I said, Drink ye wine.
6 Ko ya gamshe mu ko bai gamshe mu ba, za mu yi biyayya da Ubangiji Allahnmu, ga wanda muke aikan ka, saboda ya zama mana da amfani, gama za mu yi biyayya da Ubangiji Allahnmu.”
But they said, We will on no account drink wine, for our father Jonadab the son of Rechab commanded us, saying, Ye shall on no account drink wine, [neither] ye, nor your sons for ever:
7 Bayan kwana goma sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Irmiya.
nor shall ye at all build houses, nor sow any seed, nor shall ye have a vineyard: for ye shall dwell in tents all your days; that ye may live many days upon the land, in which ye sojourn.
8 Saboda haka ya kira Yohanan ɗan Kareya da dukan shugabannin sojoji waɗanda suke tare da shi da dukan jama’a daga ƙarami zuwa babba.
And we hearkened to the voice of Jonadab our father, so as to drink no wine all our days, we, and our wives, and our sons, and our daughters;
9 Ya ce musu, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, wanda kuka aike ni gare shi don in gabatar da kukanku, yana cewa,
and so as to build no houses to dwell in: and we have had no vineyard, nor field, nor seed:
10 ‘In kuka zauna a wannan ƙasa, zan gina ku ba zan kuwa rushe ku ba; zan dasa ku ba kuwa zan tumɓuke ku ba, gama ina baƙin ciki a kan masifar da na aukar a kanku.
but we have dwelt in tents, and have hearkened, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
11 Kada ku ji tsoron sarkin Babilon, wanda kuke tsoro a yanzu. Kada ku ji tsoronsa, in ji Ubangiji, gama ina tare da ku zan kuma cece ku daga hannuwansa.
And it came to pass, when Nabuchodonosor came up against the land, that we said we would come in; and we entered into Jerusalem, for fear of the host of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the host of the Assyrians: and we dwelt there.
12 Zan nuna muku jinƙai don yă nuna muku jinƙai ya kuma maido da ku ƙasarku.’
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
13 “Amma fa, in kuka ce, ‘Ba za mu zauna a wannan ƙasa ba,’ ta haka kuka kuma nuna rashin biyayya ga Ubangiji Allahnku,
Thus saith the Lord, Go, and say to the men of Juda, and to them that dwell in Jerusalem, Will ye not receive correction to hearken to my words?
14 in kuma kuka ce, ‘A’a, za mu tafi mu zauna a Masar, inda ba za mu ga yaƙi ko mu ji ƙarar ƙaho ko mu ji yunwa ba,’
The sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have kept the word which he commanded his children, that they should drink no wine; and they have not drunk [it]: but I spoke to you early, and ye hearkened not.
15 to, ku ji maganar Ubangiji, ya raguwar Yahuda. Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, ‘In kun ƙudura ku tafi Masar kuka kuma tafi kun zauna a can,
And I sent to you my servants the prophets, saying, Turn ye every one from his evil way, and amend your practices, and go not after other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell upon the land which I gave to you and to your fathers: but ye inclined not your ears, and hearkened not.
16 takobin da kuke tsoro zai same ku a can, kuma yunwar da kuke tsoro za tă bi ku zuwa Masar, a can kuwa za ku mutu.
But the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have kept the command of their father; but this people has not hearkened to me.
17 Tabbatacce, duk waɗanda suka ƙudura suka tafi Masar su zauna a can za su mutu ta wurin takobi, yunwa da annoba; ba ko ɗayansu zai tsira ko ya kuɓuta wa masifar da zan aukar a kansu.’
Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I [will] bring upon Juda and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evils which I pronounced against them.
18 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa, ‘Kamar yadda na kwararo fushina da hasalata a kan mazaunan Urushalima, haka kuma zan kwararo fushina a kanku sa’ad da kuka tafi Masar. Za ku zama abin la’ana da abin tsoro, abin ƙyama da abin ba’a; ba za ku ƙara ganin wannan wuri ba.’
Therefore thus saith the Lord; Since the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have hearkened to the command of their father, to do as their father commanded them:
19 “Ya ku raguwar Yahuda, Ubangiji ya ce muku, ‘Kada ku je Masar.’ Ku tabbatar da wannan. Na gargaɗe ku yau
there shall never be wanting a man of the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab to stand before my face while the earth remains.
20 cewa in kun yi kuskure sa’ad da kuka aike ni wurin Ubangiji Allahnku kuka kuma ce, ‘Yi mana addu’a ga Ubangiji Allahnmu; ka faɗa mana duk abin da ya faɗa za mu kuwa aikata.’
21 Na faɗa muku yau, amma har yanzu ba ku yi biyayya ga Ubangiji Allahnku cikin dukan abin da ya aiko ni in faɗa muku ba.
22 Saboda haka yanzu, ku tabbatar da wannan. Za ku mutu ta wurin takobi, yunwa da annoba a wurin da kuke so ku tafi ku zauna.”
