< Irmiya 44 >
1 Wannan maganata zo wa Irmiya game da dukan Yahudawa masu zama a Masar ta Ƙasa, a Migdol, Tafanes da Memfis, da kuma a Masar ta Bisa.
The word that came through Jeremiah to all the Jews who were living in the land of Egypt, living at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the land of Pathros, saying:
2 “Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila yana cewa kun ga masifa mai girmar da na kawo a kan Urushalima da kuma a kan dukan garuruwan Yahuda. A yau sun zama hamada da kuma kango
“Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You yourselves have seen all this evil that I have led over Jerusalem and over all the cities of Judah. And behold, they are desolate to this day, and there is no inhabitant in them,
3 saboda muguntar da suka aikata. Sun tsokane ni na yi fushi ta wurin ƙone turare da kuma ta wurin bauta wa waɗansu allolin da su ko ku ko kakanninku ba su taɓa sani ba.
because of the wickedness which they have done, so that they provoked me to wrath, and because they went to offer sacrifice and worship to strange gods, which neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.
4 Sau da sau na aiki bayina annabawa, waɗanda suka ce, ‘Kada ku yi wannan abin ƙyama da na ƙi!’
And I sent to you all my servants, the prophets, rising in the night, and sending, and saying: ‘Do not choose to do this abominable word, which I hate.’
5 Amma ba su saurara ko su kasa kunne ba; ba su juye daga muguntarsu ko su daina ƙone turare wa waɗansu alloli ba.
But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear, so that they would convert from their evil, and so that they would not sacrifice to strange gods.
6 Saboda haka, fushina mai ƙuna ya fāɗo a kan garuruwan Yahuda da kuma titunan Urushalima na kuma mai da su kufai da suke a yau.
And so my indignation and my fury was fanned and kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. And they have been turned into desolation and devastation, just as it is this day.
7 “To, ga abin da Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa don me kuka kawo irin masifa mai girma haka a kanku ta wurin warewa daga Yahuda maza da mata, yara da jarirai, kun kuma bar kanku babu raguwa?
And now, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil against your own souls, so that, among you, man and woman, child and infant would pass away from the midst of Judah, and so that no remnant at all would be left behind of you?
8 Me ya sa kuka tsokane ni in yi fushi saboda abin da hannuwanku suka yi, kuna ƙone turare wa waɗansu alloli a Masar, inda kuka zo don ku zauna? Za ku hallakar da kanku ku kuma mai da kanku abin la’ana da abin zargi da abin ba’a a cikin dukan al’umman duniya.
For you have provoked me by the works of your hands, by sacrificing to strange gods in the land of Egypt, into which you have entered in order to live there, and so that you would perish and become a curse and a disgrace before all the nations of the earth.
9 Kun manta mugayen ayyukan kakanninku, da na sarakuna da sarauniyoyin Yahuda da mugayen ayyukanku, da na matanku a cikin Yahuda da kan titunan Urushalima?
How could you have forgotten the evils of your fathers, and the evils of the kings of Judah, and the evils of their wives, and your own evils, and the evils of your own wives, which they have done in the land of Judah and in the regions of Jerusalem?
10 Har yă zuwa yau ba su ƙasƙantar da kansu ko su nuna bangirma, ko su kiyaye dokata da ƙa’idodin da na sa a gabanku da kakanninku ba.
They have not been cleansed, even to this day. And they have not feared, and they have not walked in the law of the Lord and in my precepts, which I have given before you and before your fathers.
11 “Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa na ƙudura in aukar muku da masifa in kuma hallaka dukan Yahuda.
For this reason, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face upon you for evil. And I will disperse all of Judah.
12 Zan ɗauke raguwar Yahuda waɗanda suka ƙudurta su je Masar su zauna a can. Duk za su hallaka a Masar; za su mutu ta wurin takobi ko su mutu da yunwa. Daga ƙarami zuwa babba, za su mutu ta wurin takobi ko yunwa. Za su zama abin zarge da abin tsoro, abin la’ana da abin ba’a.
And I will take the remnant of Judah, who had set their faces so that they would enter into the land of Egypt and live there, and they will all be consumed in the land of Egypt. They will fall by the sword and by famine. And they will be consumed, from the least, even to the greatest. By sword and by famine shall they die. And they will be an oath, and a wonder, and a curse, and a disgrace.
13 Zan hukunta waɗanda suke zama a Masar da takobi, yunwa da annoba, yadda na hukunta Urushalima.
And I will visit against those who are living in the land of Egypt, just as I have visited against Jerusalem: with the sword, and with famine, and with pestilence.
14 Babu wani daga raguwar Yahuda wanda ya tafi Masar da zai kuɓuta ko ya tsira har ya komo zuwa ƙasar Yahuda, wadda za su yi marmari su komo su zauna; babu wani da zai komo sai dai’yan gudun hijira.”
And there will be no one who escapes, of those who remain among the remnant of the Jews, those who have gone to sojourn in the land of Egypt. And they wish to be returned to the land of Judah, for they lift up their souls so that they might return and live there. But there will be no one who may return, except those who will flee.”
15 Sai dukan mazan da suka san cewa matansu suna ƙone turare wa waɗansu alloli, tare da dukan matan da suke a nan babban taro, da kuma dukan mutanen da suke zama a Masar ta Ƙasa da ta Bisa, suka ce wa Irmiya,
Then all the men, knowing that their wives were sacrificing to strange gods, and all of the women, a great multitude of whom were standing there, and all of the people who were living in the land of Egypt at Pathros, responded to Jeremiah, by saying:
16 “Ba za mu saurari saƙon da ka yi mana magana a sunan Ubangiji ba!
“Concerning the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not heed you.
17 Lalle za mu aikata duk abin da muka ce za mu yi. Za mu ƙone turare ga Sarauniyar Sama za mu kuma miƙa hadayun sha gare ta kamar dai yadda mu da kakanninmu, sarakunanmu da fadawanmu muka yi a garuruwan Yahuda da kuma kan titunan Urushalima. A lokacin muna da abinci a yalwace muna kuma da arziki ba mu kuma da wata damuwa.
But we will continue to do every word which proceeds from our own mouth, so that we sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and we pour out libations to her, just as we and our fathers have done, our kings and our leaders, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. For we were filled with bread, and it was well with us, and we saw no evil.
18 Amma tun da muka daina ƙone turare ga Sarauniyar Sama da kuma miƙa mata hadayun sha, muka rasa kome muna ta mutuwa ta wurin takobi da yunwa.”
But since the time that we ceased to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out libations to her, we have been in need of all things, and we have been consumed by the sword and by famine.
19 Matan suka ƙara da cewa, “Sa’ad da muka ƙone turare ga Sarauniyar Sama muka kuma miƙa mata hadayun sha, mazanmu ba su san muna yin waina kamar siffarta muna kuma miƙa mata hadayun sha ba?”
But when we offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven and pour out libations to her, do we make cakes for her worship and offer libations to her without our husbands?”
20 Sai Irmiya ya ce wa dukan mutanen, maza da mata, waɗanda suke ba shi amsa,
And Jeremiah spoke to all the people, facing the men, and facing the women, and facing all the people who had responded this word to him, saying:
21 “Ubangiji bai tuna ya kuma yi tunani game da turaren da aka ƙone a garuruwan Yahuda da kan titunan Urushalima wanda ku da kakanninku, sarakunanku da fadawanku da mutanen ƙasar ba ne?
“Was this not the sacrifice that you offered in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your leaders, and the people of the land, which has been called to mind by the Lord and which has entered into his heart?
22 Sa’ad da Ubangiji bai iya jurewa da mugayen ayyukanku da kuma abubuwa banƙyama da kuka aikata ba, sai ƙasarku ta zama abin la’ana da kufai babu mazauna yadda yake a yau.
And the Lord could no longer bear this, because of the evil of your intentions, and because of the abominations that you have done. And so, your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, and it is without an inhabitant, even to this day.
23 Domin kun ƙone turare kuka kuma yi wa Ubangiji zunubi ba ku kuma yi masa biyayya ko ku kiyaye dokarsa ko ƙa’idodinsa ko farillansa ba, wannan masifa ta aukar muku, yadda yanzu kuka gani.”
This is because you have sacrificed to idols, and you have sinned against the Lord. And you have not heeded the voice of the Lord, and you have not walked in his law, and in his precepts, and in his testimonies. It is for this reason that these evils have happened to you, just as it is today.”
24 Sai Irmiya ya ce wa dukan mutane, har da mata, “Ku saurari maganar Ubangiji, dukanku mutanen Yahuda a Masar.
Then Jeremiah said to all the people and to all the women: “Listen to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who are in the land of Egypt:
25 Ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila, yana cewa ku da matanku kun nuna ta wurin ayyukanku abin da kuka yi alkawari sa’ad da kuka ce, ‘Lalle za mu yi abin da muka yi alkawari na ƙone turare da kuma miƙa hadayun sha ga Sarauniyar Sama.’ “To, sai ku ci gaba, ku aikata abin da kuka yi alkawari! Ku cika alkawarinku!
Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have spoken it with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hands, saying: ‘Let us perform our vows that we have made, so that we may offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and pour out libations to her.’ You have fulfilled your vows and accomplished their works.
26 Amma ku ji maganar Ubangiji, dukan Yahudawan da suke zama a Masar, ‘Na rantse da sunana,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘cewa babu wani daga Yahuda wanda yake zama a ko’ina a Masar zai ƙara kira bisa sunana ko ya rantse ya ce, “Muddin Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana raye.”
Because of this, listen to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah, who live in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says the Lord, that my name will never again be invoked by the mouth of any man of Judah in the land of Egypt, saying: ‘As the Lord God lives.’
27 Gama ina lura da su don lahani, ba alheri ba; mutanen Yahuda da suke a Masar za su hallaka ta wurin takobi da yunwa sai dukansu sun hallaka.
Behold, I will be vigilant over them for harm, and not for good. And all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will be consumed, by the sword and by famine, until they are thoroughly consumed.
28 Waɗanda suka kuɓuta wa takobi suka komo zuwa ƙasar Yahuda daga Masar za su zama kima kawai. Sa’an nan dukan raguwar Yahuda waɗanda suka zo don su yi zama a Masar za su san maganar wane ne za tă tabbata, tawa ko tasu.
And a few men, who will flee from the sword, will return from the land of Egypt into the land of Judah. And all the remnant of Judah, who had entered into the land of Egypt so as to live there, will know whose word will be completed, mine or theirs.
29 “‘Wannan zai zama alama a gare ku cewa zan hukunta ku a wannan wuri,’ in ji Ubangiji, ‘saboda ku san cewa barazanata ta lahani a kanku tabbatacce za tă cika.’
And this will be a sign to you, says the Lord, that I will visit against you in this place, so that truly you may know that my words will be completed against you for harm.”
30 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, ‘Zan bayar da Fir’auna Hofra sarkin Masar ga abokan gābansa waɗanda suke neman ransa, kamar yadda na ba da Zedekiya sarkin Yahuda ga Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon, abokin gāban da ya nemi ransa.’”
Thus says the Lord: “Behold, I will deliver Pharaoh Hophra, the king of Egypt, into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who are seeking his life, just as I delivered Zedekiah, the king of Judah, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, his enemy and the one who was seeking his life.”
