< Yeremyaah 2 >
1 Oo haddana eraygii Rabbigu waa ii yimid, isagoo leh,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Tag oo Yeruusaalem dhegaha kaga qayli, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaan xusuusnahay roonaantii yaraantaada iyo jacaylkii doonanaantaada, markaad igu raaci jirtay cidladii ahayd dal aan waxba lagu beerin.
Go and call out before the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus hath said the Lord, I remember unto thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thy espousals, thy going after me in the wilderness, through a land that is not sown.
3 Reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu Rabbiga u ahaa quduus, iyo midhihii ugu horreeyey ee beergooyskiisii, oo kuwii isaga cunay oo dhammu eed bay lahaayeen, oo masiibo baa iyaga ku soo degtay, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
A holy thing is Israel unto the Lord, the first of his fruits: all that devour him shall incur guilt; evil shall come over them, saith the Lord.
4 Reer Yacquub iyo qolooyinka reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammow, bal maqla erayga Rabbiga:
Hear ye the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob, and all ye families of the house of Israel.
5 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Awowayaashiin maxaa xaqdarro ah oo ay iga heleen oo ay iiga fogaadeen, oo ay waxyaalaha aan waxtarka lahayn u raaceen, oo ay waxmatarayaal u noqdeen?
Thus hath said the Lord, What fault did your fathers find in me, that they went away far from me, and walked after vanity, and became vain?
6 Oo iyagu innaba ma ay odhan, Meeh Rabbigii dalka Masar naga soo bixiyey, oo nagu soo hor kacay cidlada dhexdeeda, taasoo ahayd dal lamadegaan ah oo godad badan, iyo dal abaar iyo hooska dhimashada ah, iyo dal aan ciduna dhex marin, iyo meel aan la degin?
That they said not, Where is the Lord that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of wildness, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land through which no one had passed, and where no man had dwelt?
7 Oo waxaan idin keenay waddan barwaaqo badan, inaad midhihiisa iyo wanaaggiisa cuntaan, laakiinse markaad soo gasheen ayaad dalkaygii nijaasayseen, oo dhaxalkaygiina waxaad ka dhigteen wax karaahiyo ah.
And I brought you into the land of fruitful fields, to eat its fruit and its goodly products; but ye came and ye made unclean my land, and my heritage ye rendered an abomination.
8 Wadaaddadii ma ay odhan, Rabbigii meeh? Oo kuwa sharciga hayaana ima ay aqoon, oo taliyayaashiina way igu xadgudbeen, oo nebiyadiina waxay wax ku sii sheegeen Bacal, oo waxay iska daba galeen waxyaalo aan innaba faa'iido lahayn.
The priests said not, Where is the Lord? and they that handle the law knew me not; and the shepherds transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied in the name of Ba'al, and after things that cannot profit did they walk.
9 Oo sidaas daraaddeed weli waan idinla muddacayaa, oo carruurtiinna carruurtoodana waan la muddici doonaa.
Therefore will I contend yet farther with you, saith the Lord, and with your children's children will I contend.
10 Waayo, bal u gudba xagga gasiiradda Kitiim, oo bal wax eega, oo xagga Qedaarna cid u dira, oo aad u fiirsada, oo bal eega hadday waxaas oo kale halkaas jiraan.
For pass over to the isles of the Chittites, and see; and unto Kedar send, and consider well and see if any thing like this hath happened.
11 Miyey jirtaa quruun beddeshay ilaahyadeed aan ilaahyo ahayn? Laakiinse dadkaygu waxay ammaantoodii ku beddeleen wax aan waxtar lahayn.
Hath a nation exchanged its gods, which are yet no gods? and [still] my people hath exchanged its glory for that which can not profit.
12 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Samooyinkow, bal waxan la yaaba, oo aad iyo aad u cabsada, oo haddana aad u gariira.
Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and let your hair stand at an end, be ye greatly terrified, saith the Lord.
13 Waayo, dadkaygii laba waxyaalood oo shar ah ayay sameeyeen, way iga tageen anigoo ah isha biyaha nool, oo waxay qoteen berkedo daldaloola oo aan innaba biyo celin karin.
For two evils have my people committed: me have they forsaken, the source of living waters, to hew out for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns, that cannot hold water.
14 Dalka Israa'iil ma addoon baa, mase waa bidde guriga ku dhashay? Maxaa isaga loo kala boobay?
Is Israel a servant? or one born [to servitude] in the house? why hath he been given up to plunder?
15 Libaaxyo qayrabyo ah ayaa ku ciyey, oo codkoodiina way dheereeyeen, oo dalkiisiina way baabbi'iyeen, oo magaalooyinkiisiina way gubteen oo ciduna ma deggana.
[That] over him young lions roared, let their voice resound, and changed his land into a waste, that his cities are burnt, left without an inhabitant?
16 Oo waxaa dhalada kaa jebiyey reer Nof iyo reer Taxfanees.
Even the children of Noph and Thachpanches have crushed the crown of thy head.
17 Sow adiga qudhaadu isuma aad keenin belaayadan, waayo, waxaad ka tagtay Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah markuu jidka kugu hagayay?
Hast thou not procured this unto thyself, through thy forsaking the Lord thy God, while he was leading thee on the [right] way?
18 Oo haatan bal maxaad ka samaynaysaa jidka Masar inaad cabto biyaha Shiixoor? Amase bal maxaad ka samaynaysaa jidka Ashuur inaad cabto biyaha Webi Yufraad?
And now what hast thou to do on the way of Egypt, to drink the waters of Shichor? and what hast thou to do on the way of Asshur, to drink the waters of the river?
19 Haddaba xumaantaada ayaa ku edbin doonta, oo dibunoqoshadaada ayaa ku canaanan doonta. Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Haddaba bal ogow oo arag inay tahay wax shar ah oo qadhaadh inaad iga tagtay anigoo Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah, iyo inaadan iga cabsan.
Thy own wickedness shall chastise thee, and thy backslidings shall correct thee; and thou shalt know and see that evil and bitter was thy forsaking the Lord thy God, while the dread of me was not upon thee, saith the Lord Eternal of hosts.
20 Waayo, waa hore ayaad harqoodkaagii jebisay, oo waxaad kala gooysay silsiladihii kugu xidhnaa, oo waxaad tidhi, Anigu kuu adeegi maayo, oo buur kasta oo dheer korkeed iyo geed kasta oo doog ah hoostiis ayaad ku jiifsatay sida dhillo oo kale.
Because from yore did I break thy yoke, did I burst asunder thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress: nevertheless upon every high hill and under every green tree thou makest thy bed, as harlot.
21 Laakiin waxaan kuu beeray canab wacan, oo kulligiis abuur wanaagsan ah, haddaba sidee baad ugu beddelantay inaad igu noqotid canab ba'ay oo qalaad?
Yet I had planted thee as a branch of a noble vine, wholly of the proper seed; but how art thou changed unto me into a degenerate plant of an ignoble vine?
22 Waayo, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, In kastoo aad soodhe isku maydhid, oo aad saabuun iska badisid, weli xumaantaadii sida calaamad oo kale bay ii muuqataa.
For though thou wash thyself with natron, and take for thyself much soap: yet would the stain of thy iniquity remain before me, saith the Lord Eternal.
23 Sidee baad u odhan kartaa, Anigu ma nijaasoobin, oo Bacaliimna ma raacin? Bal fiiri socodkii aad dooxada ku martay, oo garo wixii aad samaysay. Waxaad tahay qaalin geel oo dheeraysa oo warwareegta,
How canst thou say, I am not become unclean, after the Be'alim have I not gone? see thy way in the valley, know what thou hast done: [like] a swift dromedary bound fast to her ways;
24 iyo dameerdibadeed cidlada baratay, oo iyadoo orgoonaysa dabaysha ursanaysa. Yaa damaceeda ka celin kara? Oo kuwa iyada doonaya oo dhammuna isma ay daalin doonaan, waayo, iyaday bisheeda heli doonaan.
[Like] a wild ass used to the wilderness, that at her pleasure snuffeth up the wind; her lust—who can turn this away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month will they find her.
25 Cagahaaga kabola'aan ka dhawr, oo hungurigaagana harraad ka dhawr, laakiinse waxaad tidhi, Rajo ma leh innaba, waayo, waxaan jeclaaday shisheeyayaal, oo iyagaan iska daba gelayaa.
“Prevent thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from being thirsty;” but thou saidst, It is useless; no, for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.
26 Siduu tuug markii la qabto u ceeboobo oo kale ayay reer binu Israa'iil u ceeboobeen, iyaga, iyo boqorradooda, iyo amiirradooda, iyo wadaaddadooda, iyo nebiyadooduba,
As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so have the house of Israel been made ashamed, they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets,
27 kuwaasoo geed ku yidhaahda, Waxaad tahay aabbahay, oo dhagaxna ku yidhaahda, Adigaa i dhalay. Dhabarkay ii soo jeediyeen, wejigiina way iga sii jeediyeen, laakiinse wakhtigii ay dhibaataysan yihiin waxay i odhan doonaan, Kac oo na badbaadi.
Who say to the wood, Thou art my father; and to the stone, Thou hast brought us forth; for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face; but in the time of their misfortune will they say, Arise, and save us.
28 Laakiinse meeye ilaahyadaadii aad samaysatay? Iyagu ha keceen hadday ku badbaadin karaan wakhtigii aad dhibaataysan tahay, waayo, dadka Yahuudah ahow, ilaahyadiinnu waxay tiro le'eg yihiin magaalooyinkiinna.
But where are then thy gods that thou hast made for thyself? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy misfortune; for equal to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah.
29 Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal maxaad iila muddacaysaan? Waayo, idinku kulligiin waad iga gudubteen.
Wherefore will ye contend with me? all of you have transgressed against me, saith the Lord.
30 Anigu waxtarla'aan baan carruurtiinnii u dilay, iyaguse innaba kuma ay waano qaadan. Seeftiinnii ayaa nebiyadiinnii baabbi'isay sidii libaax wax baabbi'inaya oo kale.
To no purpose have I smitten your children; correction they accepted not: your sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.
31 Dadka qarniganow, bal erayga Rabbiga ka fiirsada. Reer binu Israa'iil ma waxaan u ahaa cidlo ama dal gudcur ah? Haddaba bal maxaa dadkaygu u yidhaahdaan, Xor baannu nahay, oo mar dambe kuu iman mayno?
O [present] generation, regard ye the word of the Lord. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of deep darkness? wherefore say my people, We wander about; we cannot come any more unto thee?
32 Gabadhu miyey illoobi kartaa wixii ay isku sharaxdo, aroosadduse miyey illoobi kartaa wixii ay xidhato? Laakiinse dadkaygu waxay i illoobeen maalmo badan oo aan la tirin karin.
Can a virgin forget her ornament, or a bride her decorations? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
33 Sidee baad jidkaaga u hagaajisaa markaad caashaq doondoonto? Sidaas daraaddeed xataa naagaha xunxunna jidadkaagaad bartay.
Why ornamentest thou thy way to seek for love? truly even the worst hast thou used thyself as thy ways.
34 Oo weliba darfaha dharkaagana waxaa laga helaa dhiiggii masaakiinta aan xaqa qabin, sababtuna ma aha inaad heshay iyagoo guriga dhacaya, laakiinse waa waxyaalahaas oo dhan daraaddood.
Also on thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the innocent needy ones: not while breaking in [thy house] didst thou find them; but for all these things.
35 Oo weliba waxaad istidhaahdaa, Anigu xaq ma qabo. Sida xaqiiqada ah cadhadiisu way iga noqotay. Bal ogow, anigu waan kula muddici doonaaye, maxaa yeelay, waxaad tidhaahdaa, Anigu ma aan dembaabin.
Yet thou sayest, Yea, I am innocent, surely his anger is already turned away from me. Behold, I will hold judgment with thee, because thou sayest, I have not sinned.
36 Maxaad u warwareegtaa si aad jidadkaaga u beddesho? Ceeb baa dalka Masar kaaga iman doonta siday dalka Ashuur kaaga timid oo kale.
Why makest thou thyself so very low to change thy way? also because of Egypt shalt thou be made ashamed, as thou wast put to shame because of Assyria.
37 Oo weliba isagana waad ka soo bixi doontaa, adigoo gacmahu madaxa kuu saaran yihiin, waayo, Rabbigu waa diiday kuwa aad ku kalsoon tahay oo dhan, oo iyaga innaba ku dhex liibaani maysid.
Also from this one shalt thou go forth, with thy hands [clasped] over thy head; for the Lord hath rejected those on whom thou trustest and thou shalt not prosper with them.
