< Irmiya 51 >
1 Ubangiji ya ce, “Ga shi, zan zuga ruhun mai hallakarwa a kan Babilon da mutanen Leb Kamai.
Thus saith YHWH; Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise up against me, a destroying wind;
2 Zan aika da baƙi zuwa Babilon su casa ta su kuma yi kaca-kaca da ƙasarta; za su yi hamayya da ita a kowane gefe a ranar masifarta.
And will send unto Babylon fanners, that shall fan her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
3 Kada ku bar maharbi yă ja bakansa, kada kuma ku bari yă sa kayan yaƙinsa. Kada ku rage samarinta, ku hallaka sojojinta ƙaf.
Against him that bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and against him that lifteth himself up in his brigandine: and spare ye not her young men; destroy ye utterly all her host.
4 Za su fāɗi matattu a ƙasar Babilon, da munanan raunuka a titunanta.
Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and they that are thrust through in her streets.
5 Gama Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila da Yahuda bai yashe su ba, ko da yake ƙasarsu cike da take da laifi a gaban Mai Tsarki na Isra’ila.
For Israel hath not been forsaken, nor Judah of his Elohim, of YHWH of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.
6 “Ku gudu daga cikin Babilon! Bari kowa yă ceci ransa! Kada a hallaka saboda zunubanta. Gama lokaci ne don ramuwar Ubangiji, zai sāka mata bisa ga alhakinta.
Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of YHWH 's vengeance; he will render unto her a recompence.
7 Babilon ta zama ƙoƙon zinariya a hannun Ubangiji, ta sa dukan duniya ta yi maye. Ƙasashe sun sha ruwan inabinta, saboda haka yanzu sun haukace.
Babylon hath been a golden cup in YHWH 's hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
8 Farat ɗaya Babilon za tă fāɗi ta farfashe. Ku yi kuka dominta! Ku samo mata magani saboda azabarta; wataƙila za a iya warkar da ita.
Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, if so she may be healed.
9 “‘Da mun warkar da Babilon, amma ba za tă warke ba; mu ƙyale ta kowane yă koma garinsu, gama hukuncinta ya kai sammai, ya yi tsawo kamar gizagizai.’
We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.
10 “‘Ubangiji ya baratar da mu; zo mu tafi mu yi shelarsa a Sihiyona mu faɗa abin da Ubangiji Allahnmu ya yi.’
YHWH hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of YHWH our Elohim.
11 “Ku wasa kibiyoyi, ku ɗauko garkuwoyi! Ubangiji ya zuga sarakunan Medes, domin niyyarsa ce yă hallaka Babilon. Ubangiji zai yi ramuwa, zai yi ramuwa saboda haikalinsa.
Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: YHWH hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of YHWH, the vengeance of his temple.
12 Ku tā da tuta gāba da katangan Babilon! Ku ƙara matsara, ku kafa masu tsaro, ku shirya kwanto! Ga shi, Ubangiji zai aikata abin da ya faɗa umarninsa a kan mutanen Babilon.
Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for YHWH hath both devised and done that which he spake against the inhabitants of Babylon.
13 Ke da kike zama kusa da ruwaye da kike kuma wadatar dukiya, ƙarshenki ya zo, lokaci ya yi da za a kau da ke.
O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.
14 Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya rantse da zatinsa, ya ce Tabbatacce zan cika ka da mutane kamar fāra, za su kuwa yi sowa don nasara a kanka.
YHWH of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers; and they shall lift up a shout against thee.
15 “Ya halicci ƙasa ta wurin ikonsa; ya kafa duniya ta wurin hikimarsa, ya kuma shimfiɗa sammai ta wurin fahiminsa.
He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.
16 Sa’ad da ya yi tsawa ruwan da suke sammai sukan yi ruri; yakan sa gizagizai su tashi daga ƙarshen duniya. Yakan tura walƙiya tare da ruwan sama yakan kuma saki iska daga cikin taskokinsa.
When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
17 “Kowane mutum marar azanci ne kuma ba shi da sani; kowane maƙerin zinariya yakan sha kunya daga wurin gumakansa. Siffofinsa na ƙarya ne; babu numfashi a cikinsu.
Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
18 Su marasa amfani ne, abubuwan ba’a ne kawai; sa’ad da lokacin hukuncinsu ya kai, za su hallaka.
They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
19 Wanda yake na wajen Yaƙub ba kamar waɗannan ba ne, gama shi ne Mahalicci dukan abu, har da kabilar abin gādonsa, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne sunansa.
The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: YHWH of hosts is his name.
20 “Kai ne kulkin yaƙina, kayan yaƙina, da kai ne na ragargaza ƙasashe, da kai ne na hallaka mulkoki,
Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms;
21 da kai ne na ragargaza doki da mahayi, da kai ne na ragargaza keken yaƙin da matuƙi,
And with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider;
22 da kai ne na ragargaza miji da mata, da kai ne na ragargaza tsoho da saurayi, da kai ne na ragargaza saurayi da budurwa,
With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid;
23 da kai ne na ragargaza makiyayi da garke, da kai ne na ragargaza manoma da dawakan noma, da kai ne na ragargaza masu mulki da shugabanni.
I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I break in pieces captains and rulers.
24 “Zan sāka wa Babilon da dukan mazaunan Babilon a idanunku saboda dukan muguntar da suka aikata a Sihiyona,” in ji Ubangiji.
And I will render unto Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, saith YHWH.
25 “Ga shi, ina gāba da kai, ya ke dutse mai hallakarwa, wadda ta hallaka duniya duka,” in ji Ubangiji. “Zan miƙa hannuna gāba da ke, zan mirgina ƙasa daga ƙwanƙolin dutse, zan maishe ki ƙonannen dutse.
Behold, I am against thee, O destroying mountain, saith YHWH, which destroyest all the earth: and I will stretch out mine hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.
26 Ba za a ɗauki dutsen yin kusurwa daga gare ki ba ko na kafa harsashen gini, gama za ki zama marar amfani har abada,” in ji Ubangiji.
And they shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but thou shalt be desolate for ever, saith YHWH.
27 “Ku tā da tuta a ƙasa! Ku busa ƙahoni a cikin ƙasashe! Ku shirya ƙasashe don yaƙi da ita, ku kira waɗannan mulkokin gāba da ita. Ararat, Minni, da Ashkenaz. A naɗa shugaba gāba da ita; ku shirya dawakai kamar fāra.
Set ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillers.
28 Ku shirya ƙasashe don yaƙi da ita, sarakunan Medes, gwamnoninsu da dukan masu shugabancinsu da kowace ƙasar da take ƙarƙashin mulkinsu.
Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.
29 Ƙasa ta girgiza tana makyarkyata saboda nufin Ubangiji na gāba da Babilon ya tabbata, nufinsa na mai da ƙasar Babilon kufai don kada kowa yă zauna a can.
And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of YHWH shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.
30 Sojojin Babilon sun daina yaƙi, suna zaune a cikin kagaransu. Ƙarfinsu ya ƙare, sun zama mata. An sa wa wuraren zamanta wuta, an karya ƙyamaren ƙofofin garinta.
The mighty men of Babylon have forborn to fight, they have remained in their holds: their might hath failed; they became as women: they have burned her dwellingplaces; her bars are broken.
31 Maguji yana biye da maguji a guje, jakada yana biye da jakada, don su faɗa wa sarkin Babilon, cewa an ci birninsa a kowane gefe.
One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to shew the king of Babylon that his city is taken at one end,
32 An ƙwace mashigai aka ƙone fadamu da wuta, sojoji kuma suka giggice.”
And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.
33 Ni Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na Isra’ila na ce, “’Yar Babilon kamar daɓen masussuka a lokacin da ake sussuka, ba da daɗewa ba lokacin girbe ta zai zo.”
For thus saith YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel; The daughter of Babylon is like a threshingfloor, it is time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
34 “Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya cinye mu, ya sa muka rikice, ya maishe mu kamar tulun da babu kome a cikinsa. Ya cinye mu kamar yadda dodon ruwa yakan yi ya kuma cika cikinsa da kayan marmarinmu, sa’an nan kuma ya yi amanmu.
Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out.
35 Bari abin da aka yi wa jikinmu yă kasance a bisa Babilon,” in ji mazaunan Sihiyona. “Bari jininmu yă kasance a kan waɗanda suke zama a Babilon,” in ji Urushalima.
The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.
36 Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, “Duba, zan tsaya muku, zan ɗaukar muku fansa, zan sa tekunta kafe in kuma sa maɓulɓulanta su ƙafe.
Therefore thus saith YHWH; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.
37 Babilon za tă zama tarin juji, wurin zaman diloli, abin ƙyama da abar ba’a, inda ba kowa.
And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
38 Mutanenta duk suna ruri kamar zakoki, suna gurnani kamar’ya’yan zaki.
They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lion's whelps.
39 Amma sa’ad da aka farkar da su, zan yi musu biki in sa su sha su bugu, domin yi sowa da dariya, sa’an nan su shiga barcin da ba za su farka ba,” in ji Ubangiji.
In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith YHWH.
40 “Zan sauko da su kamar tumaki zuwa mayanka, kamar raguna da bunsurai.
I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he goats.
41 “Yadda za a ci Sheshak, taƙamar duniya duka za tă daina! Babilon za tă zama abar ƙyama a cikin al’ummai!
How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!
42 Teku zai malalo a kan Babilon, raƙumansa masu hauka za su rufe ta.
The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.
43 Garuruwanta sun zama abin kufai, za tă zama hamada inda ba ruwa, ƙasar da ba mazauna, ba kuma mutumin da zai ratsa ta cikinta.
Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth any son of man pass thereby.
44 Zan hukunta Bel a Babilon, in sa ya yi aman abin da ya haɗiye. Ƙasashe ba za su ƙara bumbuntowa wurinsa ba. Katangan Babilon kuwa za tă rushe!
And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed up: and the nations shall not flow together any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.
45 “Ku fito daga cikinta, jama’ata! Ku tsere da ranku! Ku tsere daga zafin fushin Ubangiji.
My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of YHWH.
46 Kada zuciyarku tă yi suwu ko ku ji tsoro sa’ad da aka ji labarin a ƙasar, labari guda a wannan shekara, wani kuma a ta biye, labarin hargitsi a ƙasar mai mulki ya tasar wa mai mulki.
And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land; a rumour shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumour, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
47 Gama kwanaki tabbatacce suna zuwa, sa’ad da zan hukunta gumakan Babilon, zan kunyatar da dukan ƙasar kuma matattunta duk za su kwanta a cikinta.
Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
48 Sa’an nan sama da ƙasa da dukan abin da yake cikinsu, za su yi sowa ta murna a kan Babilon, gama daga arewa masu hallakarwa su auko mata,” in ji Ubangiji.
Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come unto her from the north, saith YHWH.
49 “Babilon za tă fāɗi saboda kisassun mutanen Isra’ila, kamar dai yadda kisassu dukan duniya suka fāɗi saboda Babilon.
As Babylon hath caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth.
50 Ku waɗanda kuka tsere wa takobi, ku gudu kada ku tsaya! Ku tuna da Ubangiji a ƙasa mai nesa, ku kuma yi ta tunani a kan Urushalima.”
Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember YHWH afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
51 “Mun sha kunya saboda zargin da ake yi mana kunya ta rufe mu, domin baƙi sun shiga tsarkakan wurare na gidan Ubangiji.”
We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of YHWH 's house.
52 “Amma kwanaki suna zuwa,” in ji Ubangiji, “sa’ad da zan hukunta gumakanta, da kuma a dukan ƙasarta waɗanda aka yi wa rauni, za su yi nishi.
Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith YHWH, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan.
53 Ko da Babilon za tă kai sararin sama ne, ta gina kagaranta mai ƙarfi, duk da haka zan aiki masu hallakarwa a kanta,” in ji Ubangiji.
Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall spoilers come unto her, saith YHWH.
54 “Ku ji muryar kuka daga Babilon, Da hargowar babbar hallakarwa daga ƙasar Babiloniyawa!
A sound of a cry cometh from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:
55 Gama Ubangiji zai rushe Babilon, zai sa ta ƙame bakinta na alfarma. Sojoji za su yi ta kutsawa kamar raƙuman ruwa; suna tā da muryoyinsu.
Because YHWH hath spoiled Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves do roar like great waters, a noise of their voice is uttered:
56 Gama mai hallakarwa ya auka wa Babilon, a kama sojojinta, a kuma kakkarya bakkunansu. Gama Ubangiji shi Allah ne mai sakayya; zai yi sakayya sosai.
Because the spoiler is come upon her, even upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken: for YHWH the El of recompences shall surely requite.
57 Zan sa mahukuntanta da masu hikimarta, gwamnoninta, shugabanninta da sojojinta su sha su bugu; za su dinga yin barcin da ba za su farka ba,” in ji Sarkin, mai suna Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is YHWH of hosts.
58 Ni Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, na ce, “Za a baje katangan nan na Babilon mai kauri za a kuma ƙone dogayen ƙyamarenta da wuta; mutane sun wahalar da kansu a banza, al’umma sun yi wahala kawai domin wutar lalata.”
Thus saith YHWH of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labour in vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary.
59 Jawabin da annabi Irmiya ya ba Serahiya, ɗan Neriya, wato, jikan Ma’asehiya, lokacin da ya tafi tare da Zedekiya, Sarkin Yahuda, zuwa Babilon a shekara ta huɗu ta mulkinsa. Serahiya shi ne shugaba mai lura da gidajen saukar baƙi.
The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah into Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. And this Seraiah was a quiet prince.
60 Irmiya ya rubuta a littafi dukan masifun da za su auko wa Babilon, wato, dukan wannan magana da aka rubuta a kan Babilon.
So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written against Babylon.
61 Irmiya kuwa ya ce wa Serahiya, “Lokacin da ka kai Babilon, sai ka karanta dukan maganan nan.
And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou comest to Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words;
62 Ka kuma ce, ‘Ya Ubangiji, kai ne ka yi magana a kan wannan wuri, cewa za ka lalatar da shi, har ba abin da zai zauna a ciki, mutum ko dabba. Wurin zai zama kufai har abada.’
Then shalt thou say, O YHWH, thou hast spoken against this place, to cut it off, that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever.
63 Sa’ad da ka gama karanta wannan littafi, sai ka ɗaura wa littafin dutse, sa’an nan ka jefar da shi tsakiyar Kogin Yuferites.
And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, that thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates:
64 Sa’an nan ka ce, ‘Haka Babilon za tă nutse, ba za tă ƙara tashi ba saboda masifar da zan kawo mata. Mutanenta kuwa za su fāɗi.’” Wannan shi ne ƙarshen kalmomin Irmiya.
And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
