Obadiya 1
1 Wahayin Obadiya. Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya ce a kan Edom. Mun ji saƙo daga wurin Ubangiji cewa, An aiki jakada zuwa ga al’ummai yă faɗa musu cewa, “Ku tashi, mu tafi mu yi yaƙi da ita.”
Thus said Lord YHWH to Edom (We have heard a report from YHWH, And an ambassador among nations was sent, “Rise, indeed, let us rise against her for battle”):
2 “Duba, zan maishe ki ƙarama a cikin al’ummai; za a rena ki ƙwarai.
“Behold, I have made you little among nations, You [are] despised exceedingly.
3 Fariyar zuciyarki ta yaudare ki, ke da kike zama can bisa duwatsu kika kuma yi gidanki a kan ƙwanƙoli, ke da kike ce wa kanki, ‘Wa zai iya saukar da ni ƙasa?’
The pride of your heart has lifted you up, O dweller in clefts of a rock (A high place [is] his habitation, He is saying in his heart: Who brings me down [to] earth?)
4 Ko da yake kina firiya kamar gaggafa kin kuma yi sheƙarki a can cikin taurari, daga can zan saukar da ke,” in ji Ubangiji.
If you go up high as an eagle, And if you set your nest between stars, From there I bring you down,” A declaration of YHWH.
5 “In ɓarayi suka zo miki, in kuma’yan fashi suka shigo gidan da dare, kash, bala’i zai jira ki ba abin da suke so ne kawai za su sata ba? In kuma masu tsinka’ya’yan inabi suka zo miki, ba sukan bar’ya’yan inabi kaɗan ba?
“If thieves have come in to you, If spoilers of the night, How have you been cut off! Do they not steal their sufficiency? If gatherers have come in to you, Do they not leave gleanings?
6 Amma za a washe Isuwa ƙaƙaf, a kuma yaye ɓoyayyiyar dukiyarsa!
How has Esau been searched out! His hidden things have flowed out,
7 Dukan waɗanda kike tarayya da su, za su kore ki zuwa iyaka; abokanki kuma za su yaudare ki, su kuma sha ƙarfinki; waɗanda suke cin abincinki, za su sa miki tarko, amma ba za ki gane ba.
All your allies have sent you to the border, Forgotten you, prevailed over you, have your friends, They make your bread a snare under you, There is no understanding in him!
8 “A wannan rana,” in jin Ubangiji, “zan hallaka masu hikimar Edom, zan shafe mutane masu fahima a duwatsun Isuwa.
Is it not in that day,” a declaration of YHWH, “That I have destroyed the wise out of Edom, And understanding out of the mountain of Esau?
9 Jarumawanki, ya Teman, za su razana, za a kashe kowane mutum a duwatsun Isuwa.
And your mighty ones have been broken down, O Teman, So that everyone of the mountain of Esau is cut off.
10 Saboda halin kama-karyar da kika yi wa ɗan’uwanka Yaƙub, za ki sha kunya; za a hallaka ki har abada.
For slaughter, for violence [to] your brother Jacob, Shame covers you, And you have been cut off for all time.
11 A ranan nan kin tsaya kawai kina zuba ido yayinda baƙi suke washe dukiyar ɗan’uwanki, baƙi kuma suka shiga ta ƙofofinsa suka jefa ƙuri’a don a rarraba Urushalima, kin tsaya kina kallo kamar ɗaya daga cikin abokan gābansa.
In the day of your standing aloof from the opposite [side], In the day of strangers taking his force captive, And foreigners have entered his gates, And have cast a lot for Jerusalem, Even you [are] as one of them!
12 Bai kamata ki rena ɗan’uwanki a ranar masifarsa ba, ko ki yi farin ciki a kan mutanen Yahuda a ranar hallakarsu, ko ki yi fariya sosai a ranar wahalarsu.
And—you do not look on the day of your brother, On the day of his alienation, Nor do you rejoice over sons of Judah, In the day of their destruction, Nor make your mouth great in a day of distress.
13 Bai kamata ki bi ta ƙofofin mutanena a ranar bala’insu ba, ko ki rena su a cikin masifarsu a ranar bala’insu, ko ki ƙwace dukiyarsu a ranar bala’insu ba.
Nor come into a gate of My people in a day of their calamity, Nor look, even you, on its misfortune in a day of its calamity, Nor send forth against its force in a day of its calamity,
14 Bai kamata ki tsaya a mararraba don ki kashe waɗanda suke ƙoƙarin tserewa ba, ko ki ba da waɗanda suka tsere ga hannun maƙiyansu a ranar wahalarsu ba.
Nor stand by the breach to cut off its escaped, Nor deliver up its remnant in a day of distress.
15 “Ranar Ubangiji ta yi kusa don dukan al’ummai. Kamar yadda kuka yi, haka za a yi muku; ayyukanku za su koma a kanku.
For near [is] the Day of YHWH, on all the nations, As you have done, it is done to you, Your deed turns back on your own head.
16 Kamar yadda kuka sha a kan tuduna mai tsarki, haka dukan al’ummai za su yi ta sha, za su sha, su kuma sha su zama sai ka ce ba su taɓa kasancewa ba.
For—as you have drunk on My holy mountain, All the nations drink continually, And they have drunk and have swallowed, And they have been as [if] they have not been.
17 Amma a kan Dutsen Sihiyona za a sami ceto; Dutsen zai zama mai tsarki, gidan Yaƙub kuma zai mallaki gādonsa.
And in Mount Zion there is an escape, And it has been holy, And the house of Jacob has possessed their possessions.
18 Gidan Yaƙub zai zama kamar wuta, gidan Yusuf kuma kamar harshen wuta; gidan Isuwa zai zama kamar tattaka, za a kuma sa masa wuta yă ƙone. Babu wanda zai tsira daga gidan Isuwa.” Ni Ubangiji na faɗa.
And the house of Jacob has been a fire, And the house of Joseph a flame, And the house of Esau for stubble, And they have burned among them, And they have consumed them, And there is not a remnant to the house of Esau,” For YHWH has spoken.
19 Mutane daga Negeb za su mamaye duwatsun Isuwa, mutane kuma daga gindin tuddai za su mallaki ƙasar Filistiyawa. Za su mamaye filayen Efraim da Samariya, Benyamin kuwa zai mallaki Gileyad.
And they have possessed the south with the mountain of Esau, And the low country with the Philistines, And they have possessed the field of Ephraim, And the field of Samaria, And Benjamin with Gilead.
20 Wannan ƙungiyar Isra’ilawan da aka kwashe zuwa bauta da suke a Kan’ana za su mallaki ƙasar har zuwa Zarefat; waɗannan da aka kwashe zuwa bauta daga Urushalima da suke a Sefarad za su mallaki garuruwan Negeb.
And the expulsion of this force of the sons of Israel, That [is with] the Canaanites to Zarephat, And the expulsion of Jerusalem that [is] with the Sepharad, Possess the cities of the south.
21 Masu kawo ceto za su haura zuwa Dutsen Sihiyona don su yi mulkin duwatsun Isuwa. Ubangiji ne zai yi mulki.
And saviors have gone up on Mount Zion, To judge the mountain of Esau, And the kingdom has been to YHWH!
