Yeremyaah 14
1 Kanu waa Eraygii Rabbiga ee abaarta ku saabsanaa ee Yeremyaah u yimid.
After there had been no rain [in Judah] for a long time, Yahweh gave me this message:
2 Dadka dalka Yahuudah way barooranayaan, irdahoodii way jilceen, oo iyagoo ooyaya ayay dhulka fadhiyaan, oo Yeruusaalem qayladeeduna kor bay u kacaysaa.
[The people in] Judah are very distressed; people [are sitting] on the ground and mourning; [in all of] Jerusalem people are crying loudly.
3 Oo kuwooda waaweyn ayaa yaryarkooda biyo u soo dira, oo waxay yimaadaan ceelasha, biyona kama ay helaan, oo weelashooda oo madhan ayay dib ula soo noqdaan, oo intay ceeboobaan oo qasmaan ayay madaxa hagoogtaan.
The rich people send their servants to [wells] to get water, but [all] the wells are dry. The servants return with empty pitchers; they cover their heads [because they are ashamed and humiliated/disappointed and sad].
4 Dhulkii wuu dildillaacay, waayo, roob kuma di'in, oo taas darteed raggii beerta qodan jiray ayaa ceebooba, oo madaxay hagoogtaan.
The ground is extremely dry and cracked open because there has been no rain. The farmers are very worried, [so] they [also] cover their heads.
5 Oo xataa deeradii duurkay ku dhashaa, oo ilmaheedana way dayrisaa, maxaa yeelay, meeshaasu caws ma leh innaba.
Even the (does/female deer) abandon their newborn babies/fawns because there is no grass in the fields [for them to eat].
6 Oo dameerdibadeedyadana waxay istaagaan meelaha dhaadheer, oo waxay u hinraagaan sida dawacooyin oo kale. Indhahoodii way madoobaanayaan, maxaa yeelay, doog bay waayaan.
The wild donkeys stand on the barren hills, panting like [SIM] [thirsty] jackals/wolves. They become blind because there is no grass [to eat].
7 Rabbiyow, in kastoo ay xumaatooyinkayagu nagu marag furayaan, magacaaga aawadiis wax u samee, waayo, dibunoqoshadayadu way badan tahay, oo adigaannu kugu dembaabnay.
[The people say], “Yahweh, we have turned away from you and sinned many times, and now we know that we are being punished because of our sins, but please help us in order that everyone can see that you are very great [MTY].
8 Rajadii reer binu Israa'iilow, Badbaadiyahoodii wakhtiga ay dhibaataysan yihiinow, bal maxaad dalka dhexdiisa ugu noqonaysaa qariib iyo sidii nin socdaal ah oo u soo leexda inuu habeen ku hoydo?
You are the one whom [we] Israelis confidently expect [to do good things for us] when we have [many] troubles/difficulties. So, why do you [not help us]? You act as though you are a stranger in our land, like you are someone who is staying here for only one night.
9 Bal maxaad u noqonaysaa sidii nin amankaagay, iyo sidii nin xoog badan oo aan waxba badbaadin karin? Laakiinse Rabbiyow, adigu waad na dhex joogtaa, oo annana magacaagaa naloogu yeedhaa, haddaba ha naga tegin.
Are you also surprised [about the terrible things that are happening to us]? Why do you act like you are unable to save anyone, even though you are a strong warrior? Yahweh, you are [here] among us, and [others know that] we are your people, [so] do not abandon us!”
10 Rabbigu wuxuu dadkan ka leeyahay, Waxay jeclaadeen inay warwareegaan, oo cagahoodana ma ay celin, sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu iyaga ma aqbalo. Haatan wuu soo xusuusan doonaa xumaantoodii, oo dembiyadoodana wuu ciqaabi doonaa.
And this is what Yahweh says to those people: “You love to wander away [from me]; you run [MTY] from one [idol] to another. Therefore, now I will no [longer] accept you, and I will punish you for your sins.”
11 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu igu yidhi, Dadkan wax wanaagsan ha ugu ducayn.
[Then] Yahweh said to me, “Do not pray for these people [any more].
12 Markay soomaan qayladooda innaba ma aan maqli doono, oo markay qurbaan la gubo iyo qurbaan hadhuudh ah ii soo bixiyaanna innaba ma aan aqbali doono, laakiinse waxaan iyaga ku baabbi'in doonaa seef, iyo abaar, iyo belaayo.
When they (fast/abstain from food in order to honor me), I will not pay any attention. When they bring [to me] their offerings [of animals] to be completely burned [on the altar] and their offerings of grain, I will not accept them. Instead, I will get rid of them by wars, by famines, and by diseases.”
13 Markaasaan idhi, Sayidow, Rabbiyow, bal eeg, nebiyadiiba waxay ku yidhaahdaan, Seef arki maysaan, abaaruna idinku dhici mayso, laakiinse waxaan meeshan idinku siin doonaa nabad hubaal ah.
Then I replied to him, “Yahweh [my] God, [their] prophets are telling the people that they will not experience wars [MTY] or famines. They are telling the people that you will surely allow us to have peace in our land [for many years].”
14 Markaasaa Rabbigu igu yidhi, Nebiyadu wax been ah ayay magacayga ku sii sheegaan. Anigu sooma aan dirin, soomana aan amrin, lamana aan hadlin innaba. Waxay idiin sii sheegaan riyo been ah, iyo faal, iyo wax aan waxba ahayn, iyo khiyaanadii qalbigooda.
Yahweh replied to me, “Those prophets say that they are speaking what I tell them to say [MTY], but they are telling lies. I did not send them, [so] what they are saying is false. They say that they have received visions from me, and that they are telling things that I have revealed to them, but that is not true. They are saying foolish things that they have only thought of themselves.
15 Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu nebiyadaas ka leeyahay, Nebiyada magacayga wax ku sii sheega, oo aanan soo dirin, laakiinse yidhaahda, Seef iyo abaar toona dalkan dhexdiisa laguma arki doono, waxaa baabbi'in doona seef iyo abaar.
So this is what I say about those prophets who are predicting what will happen, saying that I told them those things: They are saying that we Israelis will not die from wars or famines, but I did not send those prophets. And they themselves will die from wars or from famines.
16 Oo dadka ay wax u sii sheegaanna waxaa lagu tuuri doonaa jidadka Yeruusaalem, waana abaar iyo seef daraaddood, oo ciduna ma ay xabaali doonto iyaga, iyo naagahooda, iyo wiilashooda, iyo gabdhahoodaba, waayo, waxaan iyaga ku soo dejin doonaa xumaantoodii oo dhan.
And the people to whom they are predicting these things, they and their wives and their sons and their daughters, will [also die] from wars or from famines. [Their corpses will] be thrown into the streets of Jerusalem, and there will not be anyone to bury them. I will punish them like they deserve to be punished.
17 Waxaad iyaga ku tidhaahdaa erayadan, Habeen iyo maalinba indhahayga ilmo ha ka hoorto, oo yaanay marnaba joogsan, waayo, dadkayga oo ah sida gabadh bikrad ah nabar weyn baa ku dhacay iyo dhaawac aad iyo aad u xun.
[So, Jeremiah], tell this to them [about yourself]: ‘Day and night my eyes are full of tears. I cannot stop crying. I cry for my people, who are [very precious to me, as if they were] [MET] my daughters. I cry for them because they have been severely wounded; they have been severely crushed [DOU].
18 Haddaan duurka tago waxaan arkaa kuwa seef lagu laayay, oo haddaan magaalada galona waxaa arkaa kuwa gaajo la buka, waayo, nebiyadii iyo wadaaddadiiba dalkay ku dhex warwareegaan iyagoo aan aqoon lahayn.
If I go out into the fields, I see [corpses of] people who have been slaughtered by our enemies. If I walk along the streets of the city, I see [corpses of people who died] from hunger. The prophets and the priests travel through the land, preaching to people, but they do not know [what they are doing] (OR, [in a land] that they know nothing about).’”
19 Rabbiyow, aslanba dalka Yahuudah ma nacday? Naftaadu Siyoon ma karahday? Bal maxaad wax noogu dhufatay oo aannu u bogsan waynay? Nabad baannu filanaynay, laakiinse wax wanaagsanina ma iman, oo waxaannu filanaynay wakhti caafimaad leh, laakiinse waxaa noo timid cabsi keliya!
[Then I prayed this]: “[Yahweh], have you completely rejected [the people of] Judah? Do you really despise [the people of] Jerusalem [MTY]? Why have you [RHQ] wounded us very badly, with the result that we will never be healed? We hoped that we would have peace, but there was no peace. We hoped that there would be a time when we would be healed, but all that we received were things that terrified us.
20 Rabbiyow, annagu waannu aqoonsannaa sharnimadayada iyo xumaantii awowayaashayoba, waayo, waannu kugu dembaabnay.
Yahweh, we admit/know that we are wicked people, and that our ancestors [also] did many wicked things. We have [all] sinned against you.
21 Magacaaga aawadiis waan ku baryayaaye, Ha na karaahsan oo arshigii sharaftaadana ha sharafjebin, bal na soo xusuuso, oo ha nagu axdi furin.
But [Yahweh], in order that we may honor [MTY] you, do not despise/abandon us. Do not dishonor [the city where] [MTY] your glorious throne is. [Please] do not forget [us], and do not (break your agreement with us/stop doing what you agreed to do for us).
22 Sanamyada beenta ah oo quruumaha miyaa lagu arkaa mid roob keeni kara? Amase samooyinku miyey iska soo tiixi karaan? Rabbiyow Ilaahayagow, sow adigu ma tihid kan kara? Sidaas daraaddeed adiga uun baan ku sugaynaa, waayo, adigaa sameeyey waxyaalahaas oo dhan.
Those idols that [have been brought from] other nations certainly cannot [RHQ] bring rain [to us], and the sky certainly cannot [RHQ] cause rain to fall. Yahweh our God, you are the only one who can do things like that. So we will confidently expect you [to help us].”
