Irmiya 47
1 Ga maganar Ubangiji da ta zo wa Irmiya annabi game da Filistiyawa kafin Fir’auna ya yaƙi Gaza.
Yahweh’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck Gaza.
2 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “Dubi yadda ruwaye suna tasowa a arewa; za su zama kogi mai rigyawa. Za su malala a ƙasa da kuma a kan kome da yake cikinta, garuruwa da waɗanda suke zaune a cikinsu. Mutane za su yi kuka; dukan mazaunan ƙasar za su yi kururuwa
Yahweh says: “Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and will become an overflowing stream, and will overflow the land and all that is therein, the city and those who dwell therein. The men will cry, and all the inhabitants of the land will wail.
3 da jin motsin takawar kofatan dawakai, da jin surutun kekunan yaƙin abokin gāba da motsin ƙafafunsu. Ubanni ba za su juye don su taimaki’ya’yansu ba; hannuwansu za su yi laƙwas.
At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers don’t look back for their children because their hands are so feeble,
4 Gama rana ta zo da za a hallaka Filistiyawa a kuma datse dukan waɗanda suka ragu waɗanda za su iya taimakon Taya da Sidon. Ubangiji yana gab da hallaka Filistiyawa, raguwa daga bakin tekun Kaftor.
because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains; for Yahweh will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
5 Gaza za tă aske kanta cikin baƙin ciki; Ashkelon zai yi shiru. Ya raguwar da suke zama a fili, har yaushe za ku tsattsage kanku?
Baldness has come on Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nothing. You remnant of their valley, how long will you cut yourself?
6 “Za ku yi kuka kuna cewa, ‘Wayyo, takobin Ubangiji sai yaushe za ka huta? Ka koma kubenka; ka huta, ka yi shiru.’
“‘You sword of Yahweh, how long will it be before you are quiet? Put yourself back into your scabbard; rest, and be still.’
7 Amma ta yaya zai huta sa’ad da Ubangiji ya umarta, sa’ad da ya umarta shi don yă faɗa wa Ashkelon da kuma bakin teku?”
“How can you be quiet, since Yahweh has given you a command? Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore, there he has appointed it.”
