< Irmiya 45 >
1 Ga abin da Irmiya annabi ya faɗa wa Baruk ɗan Neriya a shekara ta huɗu ta Yehohiyakim ɗan Yosiya sarkin Yahuda, bayan Baruk ya rubuta maganar da Irmiya ya shibta masa a kan littafi cewa,
The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
2 “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, yana ce maka, Baruk.
Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, to you, O Baruch:
3 Ka ce, ‘Kaitona! Ubangiji ya ƙara baƙin ciki da wahalata; na gaji da nishe-nishe ban kuma huta ba.’”
You did say, Woe is me now! for the LORD has added grief to my sorrow; I fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest.
4 Ubangiji ya ce, “Ka faɗa masa wannan, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, zan rushe abin da na gina in kuma tumɓuke abin da na dasa, a duk fāɗin ƙasar.
Thus shall you say to him, The LORD says thus; Behold, that which I have built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even this whole land.
5 Ya kamata ka nemi manyan abubuwa wa kanka? Kada ka neme su. Gama zan aukar da masifa a kan dukan mutane, in ji Ubangiji, amma duk inda ka tafi zan bar ka ka kuɓutar da ranka.’”
And seek you great things for yourself? seek them not: for, behold, I will bring evil on all flesh, says the LORD: but your life will I give to you for a prey in all places where you go.
