Makoki 1
1 Yanzu birnin ya zama babu kowa a ciki, birnin da a dā yake cike da mutane! Yanzu birnin ya zama kamar gwauruwa, wadda a dā babba ce ita a cikin ƙasashe! Ita da take sarauniya a cikin larduna yanzu ta zama baiwa.
The city that once was full of people is now sitting all alone. She has become like a widow, though she was a mighty nation. She was a princess among the nations, but is now forced into slavery.
2 Tana yin kuka mai zafi da dare, hawaye na gangara a kan kumatunta. A cikin masoyanta duka babu wanda ya yi mata ta’aziyya. Duk abokanta sun yashe ta; sun zama abokan gābanta.
She weeps and wails in the night, and her tears cover her cheeks. None of her lovers comfort her. All her friends have betrayed her. They have become her enemies.
3 Bayan wahala da baƙin ciki, Yahuda ta tafi bauta. Ta zauna a cikin ƙasashe, ba tă samu wurin hutawa ba. Duk masu fafararta sun same ta sa’ad da take cikin matuƙar ɓacin rai.
After poverty and affliction, Judah has gone into exile. She lives among the nations and finds no rest. All her pursuers overtook her in her desperation.
4 Hanyoyin zuwa Sihiyona suna makoki, gama ba wanda ya zo bikin da ta shirya. Ba kowa a hanyoyin shiganta. Firistocinta suna gurnani,’yan matana kuma suna wahala, kuma tana cikin shan wahala ƙwarai.
The roads of Zion mourn because none come to the appointed feasts. All her gates are desolate. Her priests groan. Her virgins are sorrowful and she herself is in complete distress.
5 Maƙiyanta sun zama shugabanninta; Abokan gābanta suna da kwanciyar rai. Ubangiji ya kawo mata ɓacin rai domin yawan zunubanta.’Ya’yanta sun tafi bauta, a ƙarƙashin maƙiyanta.
Her adversaries have become her master; her enemies prosper. Yahweh has afflicted her for her many sins. Her little children go into captivity to her adversary.
6 Diyar Sihiyona ba ta da sauran daraja.’Ya’yan sarakunanta sun zama kamar bareyi waɗanda suka rasa wurin kiwo; cikin rashin ƙarfi suka guje wa masu fafararsu.
Beauty has left the daughter of Zion. Her princes have become like deer that cannot find pasture, and they go without strength before their pursuer.
7 A cikin kwanakin da take shan wahala take kuma yawo Urushalima ta tuna da dukan dukiyar da take da ita a kwanakin dā can. Sa’ad da mutanenta suka faɗa cikin hannun abokan gābanta, ba wanda ya taimake ta. Maƙiyanta suka dube ta suka yi mata dariya don hallakar da ta auko mata.
In the days of her affliction and her homelessness, Jerusalem will call to mind all her precious treasures that she had in former days. When her people fell into the hand of the adversary, no one helped her. The adversaries saw her and laughed at her destruction.
8 Urushalima ta yi zunubi ƙwarai saboda haka ta zama marar tsarki. Dukan masu martaba ta sun raina ta, gama sun ga tsiraicinta; ita ma da kanta tana nishi da ƙyar ta kuma juya baya.
Jerusalem sinned greatly, therefore, she has become scorned as something that is filthy. All who honored her now despise her since they have seen her nakedness. She groans and tries to turn away.
9 Ƙazantarta ta manne wa rigunanta; ba tă kula da nan gaba ba, fāɗuwarta kuwa babban abu ne; babu wanda zai yi mata ta’aziyya. “Duba, ya Ubangiji, ka ga wahalata, gama maƙiyi ya yi nasara.”
She has become unclean beneath her skirts. She did not think about her future. Her fall was terrible. There was no one to comfort her. She cried out, “Look at my affliction, Yahweh, for the enemy has become too great!”
10 Maƙiya ya kwashe dukiyarta duka; ta ga mutanen da ba su san Allah ba sun shiga wuri mai tsarkinta waɗanda ka hana su shiga taron jama’arka.
The adversary has put his hand on all our precious treasures. She has seen the nations enter her sanctuary, even though you had commanded that they must not enter into your assembly place.
11 Dukan mutanenta suna nishi da ƙyar suna neman burodi; sun sayar da dukiyarsu don su samu abinci don kada su mutu da yunwa. “Ubangiji, ka duba ka gani, gama an yashe ni.”
All her people groan as they search for bread. They have given their precious treasures for food to restore their lives. Look, Yahweh, and consider me, for I have become worthless.
12 “Ko wannan ba wani abu ba ne a wurinku, dukanku masu wucewa? Ku duba ku gani. Ko akwai wata wahala kamar irin wadda nake sha, wadda Ubangiji ya auko mini a cikin zafin fushinsa?
Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look and see if there is anyone else's sorrow like the sorrow that is being inflicted on me, since Yahweh has tormented me on the day of his fierce anger.
13 “Daga sama ya aiko da wuta, ya aiko ta cikin ƙasusuwana. Ya shimfiɗa raga a ƙafafuna ya juyo da ni. Ya bar ni ni kaɗai, sumamme dukan yini.
It is from on high that he has sent fire into my bones, and it has conquered them. He has spread a net for my feet and turned me back. He has made me constantly desolate and weak.
14 “Ya ɗaura zunubaina a wuyana; aka naɗe su a hannuwansa. Aka rataye su a wuyana Ubangiji ya kwashe ƙarfina. Ya bashe ni ga waɗanda suka fi ni ƙarfi.
The yoke of my transgressions is bound together by his hand. They are knit together and placed upon my neck. He has made my strength fail. The Lord has given me over into their hands, and I am not able to stand.
15 “Ubangiji ya ƙi duk mayaƙan da suke tare da ni; ya sa wata runduna ta tayar mini ta kuma tattake samarina. Ubangiji ya tattake budurwa Diyar Yahuda kamar’ya’yan inabi a wurin matsewa.
The Lord has tossed aside all my mighty men who defended me. He has called an assembly against me to crush my vigorous men. The Lord has trampled the virgin daughter of Judah in the winepress.
16 “Dalilin da ya sa nake kuka ke nan idanuna kuma suna ta zubar da hawaye. Babu wani a kusa da zai yi mini ta’aziyya, ba wanda zai sabunta ruhuna.’Ya’yana sun zama fakirai domin maƙiyina ya yi nasara.”
For these things I weep, my eyes overflow with tears; for a comforter is far from me, one who restores my life. My children are desolate because the enemy has conquered me.
17 Sihiyona ta miƙa hannunta, amma ba wani da zai yi mata ta’aziyya. Ubangiji ya umarta cewa maƙwabtansa za su zama maƙiyansa; Urushalima ta zama abar ƙyama a cikinsu.
Zion has spread her hands wide; there is none to comfort her. Yahweh has commanded that those around Jacob should be his adversaries. Jerusalem is something unclean to them.
18 “Ubangiji mai adalci ne, duk da haka na yi tawaye da umarninsa. Ku saurara, jama’a duka; ku dubi wahalar da nake sha. Samarina da’yan matana duka sun tafi bauta.
Yahweh is righteous, for I have rebelled against his commandment. Hear, all you peoples, and see my sorrow. My virgins and my vigorous men have gone into captivity.
19 “Na kira abokaina amma sun yashe ni. Firistocina da dattawana sun hallaka a cikin birnin yayinda suke neman abinci don kada su mutu da yunwa.
I called for my friends, but they were treacherous toward me. My priests and my elders perished in the city, while they sought food to restore their lives.
20 “Duba, Ubangiji, ka ga ƙuncin da nake ciki! Ina shan azaba a raina, ba ni da kwanciyar rai a cikin zuciyata, domin na yi tawaye sosai. A waje takobi na kisa; a ciki kuma akwai mutuwa.
Look, Yahweh, for I am in distress; my stomach churns, my heart is disturbed within me, for I have been very rebellious. Outside, the sword bereaves a mother, inside the house there is only death.
21 “Mutane suna ji ina nishi da ƙyar, amma ba wanda zai yi mini ta’aziyya. Dukan maƙiyana sun ji wahalar da nake ciki; suna farin ciki da abin da ka yi. Ka kawo ranan nan da ka sanar domin su ma su zama kamar ni.
They have heard my groaning, but there is no one to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble and they are glad that you have done it. You have brought the day you promised; now let them become like me.
22 “Bari ka ga muguntarsu duka; ka yi musu yadda ka yi mini domin dukan zunubansu. Nishina da yawa kuma zuciyata ta gaji.”
Let all their wickedness come before you. deal with them as you have dealt with me because of all my transgressions. My groans are many and my heart is faint.
