Yowel 2
1 Ku busa ƙaho a cikin Sihiyona; ku yi karar amo a tsaunina mai tsarki. Bari dukan mazaunan ƙasar su yi rawan jiki, gama ranar Ubangiji tana zuwa. Tana gab da faruwa
Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm on my holy mountain. Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of YHWH is coming, for it is near.
2 rana ce ta baƙin duhu ƙirin, ranar gizagizai ce baƙi ƙirin. Babbar rundunar mayaƙa mai ƙarfi tana zuwa kamar ketowar alfijir a kan duwatsu yadda ba a taɓa ganin irinta ba, ba kuwa za a ƙara ganin irinta ba har tsararraki masu zuwa.
A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness. As blackness spreading on the mountains a great and powerful people; there has never been the like, neither will there be any more after them, even after the years of many generations.
3 A gabansu wuta tana ci, a bayansu ga harshen wuta yana ci, A gabansu ƙasa ta yi kamar gonar Eden, a bayansu kuma jeji ne wofi, babu abin da ya kuɓuce musu.
A fire devours before them, and behind them, a flame burns. The land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them, a desolate wilderness. Yes, and no one has escaped them.
4 Suna da kamannin dawakai; suna gudu kamar dokin yaƙi.
The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses, and as horsemen, so do they run.
5 Da motsi kamar na kekunan yaƙi sun tsallake ƙwanƙolin duwatsu, kamar ƙarar harshen wuta mai cin tattaka, kamar runduna mai ƙarfi wadda ta ja dāgār yaƙi.
Like the noise of chariots on the tops of the mountains do they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, as a mighty people drawn up for battle.
6 Da ganinsu, al’ummai sun kamu da azaba; kowace fuska ta yanƙwane.
At their presence the peoples are in anguish. All faces have grown pale.
7 Sukan auka kamar jarumawa; sukan hau katanga kamar sojoji. Kowa yana takawa bisa ga tsari, ba mai kaucewa.
They run like mighty men. They climb the wall like warriors. They each march in his line, and they do not swerve off course.
8 Ba sa turin juna, kowane yakan miƙe gaba. Sukan kutsa cikin abokan gāba ba mai tsai da su.
Neither does one jostle another; they march everyone in his path, and they burst through the defenses, and do not break ranks.
9 Sukan ruga cikin birni, suna gudu a kan katanga. Sukan hau gidaje, sukan shiga ta tagogi kamar ɓarayi.
They rush on the city. They run on the wall. They climb up into the houses. They enter in at the windows like thieves.
10 A gabansu duniya takan girgiza, sararin sama kuma yakan jijjigu, rana da wata su yi duhu, taurari kuma ba sa ba da haske.
The earth quakes before them. The heavens tremble. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.
11 Ubangiji ya yi tsawa wa shugaban mayaƙansa; sojojinsa sun fi a ƙirge masu ƙarfi ne kuma su waɗanda suke biyayya da umarninsa. Ranar Ubangiji da girma take; mai banrazana. Wa zai iya jure mata?
YHWH thunders his voice before his army; for his forces are very great; for he is strong who obeys his command; for the day of YHWH is great and very awesome, and who can endure it?
12 “Ko yanzu”, in ji Ubangiji, “Ku juyo gare ni da dukan zuciyarku, da azumi da kuka da makoki.”
"Yet even now," says YHWH, "turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning."
13 Ku kyakkece zuciyarku ba rigunanku ba. Ku juyo ga Ubangiji Allahnku, gama shi mai alheri ne mai tausayi kuma mai jinkirin fushi da yawan ƙauna, yakan kuma janye daga aika da bala’i.
Tear your heart, and not your garments, and turn to YHWH, your God; for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and relents from sending calamity.
14 Wa ya sani? Ko zai juya yă kuma ji tausayi yă sa mana albarka ta wurin hadaya ta gari da hadaya ta sha wa Ubangiji Allahnku.
Who knows? He may turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meal offering and a drink offering to YHWH, your God.
15 A busa ƙaho a Sihiyona, a yi shelar azumi mai tsarki, a kira tsarkakan taro.
Blow the trumpet in Zion. Sanctify a fast. Call a solemn assembly.
16 A tattara mutane; ku tsarkake taron; ku kawo dattawa wuri ɗaya; ku kuma tara yara, da waɗanda suke shan mama. Bari ango yă bar ɗakinsa amarya kuma lolokinta.
Gather the people. Sanctify the assembly. Assemble the elders. Gather the children, and those who suck the breasts. Let the bridegroom go forth from his room, and the bride out of her chamber.
17 Bari firistocin da suke yin hidima a gaban Ubangiji, su yi kuka tsakanin filin haikali da bagade. Bari su ce, “Ka cece mutanenka, ya Ubangiji. Kada ka bar gādonka yă zama abin dariya, da abin ba’a a cikin al’ummai. Me zai sa a ce a cikin mutane, ‘Ina Allahnsu yake?’”
Let the priests, the ministers of YHWH, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, "Spare your people, YHWH, and do not give your heritage to mockery, a byword among the nations. Why should they say among the peoples, 'Where is their God?'"
18 Ta haka Ubangiji zai yi kishin ƙasarsa yă kuma ji tausayin mutanensa.
Then YHWH was jealous for his land, And had pity on his people.
19 Ubangiji zai amsa musu ya ce, “Ina aika da hatsi, sabon ruwan inabi, da mai, isashe da zai ƙosar da ku sosai; ba kuma zan ƙara maishe ku abin dariya ga al’ummai ba.
YHWH answered his people, "Look, I will send you grain, new wine, and oil, and you will eat and you will be satisfied with them; and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations.
20 “Zan kori sojojin arewa nesa da ku, in tura su cikin busasshiyar ƙasa marar amfani kuma, kuma da sawunsu na gaba zan tura su zuwa gabashin teku da kuma sawunsu na baya tura su zuwa yammanci a Bahar Rum. Warinsu kuma zai bazu; ɗoyinsu zai tashi.” Tabbatacce ya yi al’amura masu girma.
But I will remove the northern army far away from you, and will drive it into a barren and desolate land, its front into the eastern sea, and its back into the western sea; and its stench will come up, and its bad smell will rise." Surely he has done great things.
21 Kada ki ji tsoro, ya ƙasa; ki yi murna ki kuma yi farin ciki. Tabbatacce Ubangiji ya yi abubuwa masu girma.
Land, do not be afraid. Be glad and rejoice, for YHWH has done great things.
22 Kada ku ji tsoro, ya ku namun jeji, gama wuraren kiwo sun yi kore shar. Itatuwa suna ba da’ya’yansu; itacen ɓaure da na inabi suna ba da amfaninsu.
Do not be afraid, you animals of the field; for the pastures of the wilderness spring up, for the tree bears its fruit. The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
23 Ku yi murna, ya ku mutanen Sihiyona, ku yi farin ciki cikin Ubangiji Allahnku, gama ya ba ku ruwan bazara cikin adalci. Yakan aika muku yayyafi a yalwace, na bazara da na kaka, kamar dā.
"Be glad then, you people of Zion, and rejoice in YHWH, your God; for he gives you the former rain in just measure, and he causes the rain to come down for you, the former rain and the latter rain, as before.
24 Masussukai za su cika da hatsi; randuna za su cika da sabon ruwan inabi da mai suna zuba.
The threshing floors will be full of wheat, and the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.
25 “Zan mayar muku da abin da fāra suka ci a waɗannan shekaru waɗanda ɗango da fāra masu gaigayewa, da kuma sauran fāra da tarin fāra babban mayaƙan da na aika don su fāɗa muku.
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you.
26 Za ku sami a wadace ku ci, har sai kun ƙoshi, za ku kuma yabi sunan Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda ya yi muku ayyukan banmamaki; mutanena ba za su ƙara shan kunya ba.
You will have plenty to eat, and be satisfied, and will praise the name of YHWH, your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people will never be put to shame.
27 Sa’an nan za ku sani ina cikin Isra’ila, cewa ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku, babu wani kuma; mutanena ba za su ƙara shan kunya ba.
You will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am YHWH, your God, and there is no one else; and my people will never be put to shame.
28 “Daga baya kuma, zan zuba Ruhuna a bisan dukan mutane.’Ya’yanku maza da mata za su yi annabci, tsofaffinku za su yi mafarkai, matasanku za su ga wahayoyi.
"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions.
29 Har ma a bisan bayina, maza da mata, zan zuba Ruhuna a kwanakin nan.
And also on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
30 Zan nuna abubuwan banmamaki a cikin sammai da kuma a kan duniya, za a ga jini da wuta da murtukewar hayaƙi.
And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood, fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 Rana za tă duhunta wata kuma yă zama jini kafin isowar babbar ranan nan mai banrazana ta Ubangiji.
The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and awesome day of YHWH comes.
32 Amma dukan waɗanda suka nemi Ubangiji za su tsira. Kamar yadda Ubangiji ya ce, gama a Dutsen Sihiyona da Urushalima akwai ceto, a cikin waɗannan da Ubangiji ya kira.
And it will happen that whoever will call on the name of YHWH shall be saved; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as YHWH has said, and among the remnant, those whom YHWH calls.
