Yeremyaah 27
1 Bilowgii boqornimadii Yehooyaaqiim ina Yoosiyaah oo boqor ka ahaa dalka Yahuudah ayaa erayganu Yeremyaah xagga Rabbiga uga yimid, isagoo leh,
Soon after Zedekiah became the King of Judah, Yahweh gave a message to me.
2 Rabbigu wuxuu igu leeyahay, Waxaad samaysataa xadhko iyo harqood, oo waxaad kor saartaa qoortaada.
This is what he said to me: “Make a (yoke/set of wooden bars to fasten around the neck of an ox), but fasten it around your own neck with leather straps.
3 Oo waxaad iyaga ugu sii dhiibtaa boqorka dalka Edom, iyo boqorka dalka Moo'aab, iyo boqorka reer Cammoon, iyo boqorka Turos, iyo boqorka Siidoon gacanta wargeeyayaasha Yeruusaalem ugu yimid boqorka dalka Yahuudah oo Sidqiyaah ah.
[Then] send messages to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon, by telling those messages to the ambassadors from those countries who have come to Jerusalem to [talk to] King Zedekiah.
4 Oo waxaad iyaga ku amartaa inay sayidyadooda ku yidhaahdaan, Rabbiga ciidammada oo ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Waxaad sayidyadiinna ku tidhaahdaan,
Tell them to give this message to their kings: This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people worship, ]:
5 Anigu dhulka, iyo dadka iyo xayawaanka dhulka joogaba waxaan ku sameeyey xooggayga weyn iyo gacantayda fidsan, oo waxaan siiyaa kii ila qumman.
‘With my very great power [MTY, DOU] I created the earth and the people and the animals that are on the earth. And I can give my power to anyone whom I want to.
6 Oo haatan dalalkan oo dhan waxaan siiyey addoonkayga Nebukadnesar oo ah boqorka Baabuloon, oo weliba xayawaanka duurkana isagaan siiyey inay u adeegaan.
And now I am going to enable King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, who does what I want him to do, to control your countries. I am going to enable him to rule everything, even the wild animals.
7 Oo quruumaha oo dhammuna way u wada adeegi doonaan isaga, iyo wiilkiisa, iyo wiilka wiilkiisa, ilaa wakhtiga dalkiisu yimaado, oo dabadeedna quruumo badan iyo boqorro waaweyn ayaa isaga addoonsan doona.
[The people of] all the nations will work for him, and [later] for his son, and [later] for his grandson, until the time for them [to rule] is finished. Then [the armies of] many great kings from many nations will conquer Babylon.’
8 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Quruuntii iyo boqortooyadii aan u adeegin Nebukadnesar oo ah boqorka Baabuloon, oo diida inay qoortooda ka hoos mariyaan harqoodka boqorka Baabuloon, quruuntaas waxaan ku ciqaabi doonaa seef iyo abaar iyo belaayo, ilaa aan iyaga gacantiisa ku baabbi'iyo.
But now I tell you that you must [do what the king of Babylon wants you to do] [MET], [like an ox that has] a yoke on its neck [must do what its master wants it to do]. I will punish any nation that refuses to do that. I will cause those people to experience war and famine and diseases, until [the armies of] Babylon have conquered that nation.
9 Haddaba idinku innaba ha maqlina nebiyadiinna iyo waxsheegyadiinna, iyo riyolowyadiinna, iyo faaliyayaashiinna amase xataa saaxiriintiinna ee idinku yidhaahda, Idinku uma aad adeegi doontaan boqorka Baabuloon,
So, do not pay attention to your [false] prophets and fortune-tellers and people who predict what will happen by working magic or by talking with spirits of dead people. Those people say that the king of Babylon will not conquer your country.
10 waayo, been bay idiinku sii sheegaan, si ay dalkiinna idinkaga fogeeyaan, oo aan anigu dibadda idinku kexeeyo, oo aad u halligantaan aawadeed.
Those people are [all] liars. [If you believe what they say, ] it will result in your being exiled from your land. I will cause you to be taken from your land, and you will die far away.
11 Laakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Quruuntii qoorteeda ka hoos marisa harqoodka boqorka Baabuloon inay isaga u adeegto aawadeed, taas dalkeedaan ku dayn doonaa, oo beeraheeday sii fali doontaa, wayna sii degganaan doontaa.
But the people of any country who do what the King of Babylon wants them to do will remain in their own country and be able to plant their crops [MTY] [as they always have done. That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
12 Weliba erayadan oo dhanna waan kula hadlay Sidqiyaah oo ah boqorka dalka Yahuudah, oo waxaan ku idhi, Qoortiinna ka hoos mariya harqoodka boqorka Baabuloon, oo u adeega isaga iyo dadkiisa, oo saas ku noolaada.
[After I gave that message to those ambassadors, ] I gave the same message to King Zedekiah of Judah. [I said to him, ] “If you want to remain alive, do what the King of Babylon and his officials want you to do [MET].
13 Oo bal maxaad adiga iyo dadkaaguba seefta iyo abaarta iyo belaayada ugu dhimanaysaan, sida Rabbigu uga hadlay quruuntii aan u adeegin boqorka Baabuloon?
[It would be foolish for you not to do that, because the result would be that] you and your people would die by [your enemies’] swords or by famine or diseases, which Yahweh will cause any nation to experience that refuses to allow the King of Babylon to rule them.
14 Innaba ha maqlina nebiyada idinka hadla ee leh, Uma aad adeegi doontaan boqorka Baabuloon, waayo, iyagu been bay idiin sii sheegaan.
Do not pay attention to those prophets who say to you, ‘The King of Babylon will not conquer your country.’ They are liars.
15 Maxaa yeelay, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu sooma aan dirin, laakiinse been bay magacayga ku sii sheegaan, si aan idiin eryo, oo aad u halligantaan, idinka iyo nebiyada wax idiin sii sheegaba.
[This is what] Yahweh says: ‘I have not appointed those prophets. They are saying that I [MTY] gave them messages, but they are lying. So, [if you believe them, ] I will expel you from this land. And you and all those prophets will die [in Babylon]!’”
16 Oo weliba wadaaddada iyo dadkan oo dhanba, waan la hadlay oo waxaan ku idhi, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Innaba ha maqlina erayadii nebiyadiinna wax idiin sii sheega, oo idinku yidhaahda, Bal ogaada, weelashii guriga Rabbiga mar dhow baa Baabuloon laga soo celin doonaa, waayo, iyagu been bay idiin sii sheegaan.
Then I spoke to the priests and the other people, and I said, “This is what Yahweh says: ‘Do not believe your prophets who tell you that all the gold items [that were taken] from my temple [by soldiers from Babylon] will soon be returned from Babylon, because what they are prophesying is a lie.
17 Iyaga ha maqlina. Boqorka Baabuloon u adeega, oo saas ku noolaada, waayo, bal maxay magaaladani cidla u noqonaysaa?
Do not pay attention to what they say. Surrender to the king of Babylon. If you do that, you will remain alive. [If you do not do that] [RHQ], this entire city will be destroyed.
18 Laakiinse iyagu hadday nebiyo yihiin, iyo haddii eraygii Rabbigu uu iyaga la jiro, haatan Rabbiga ciidammada ha ka baryeen in weelasha ku hadhay guriga Rabbiga, iyo guriga boqorka dalka Yahuudah, iyo Yeruusaalem gudaheeduba ayan Baabuloon tegin.
If they are really prophets who speak messages from me, tell them to plead to me, the Commander of the armies of angels, that [the soldiers from Babylon] will not be allowed to take away to Babylon the valuable items that [still] remain in the temple and in the king’s palace and in [the other palaces in] Jerusalem.
19 Waayo, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu ka leeyahay tiirarka, iyo berkedda, iyo saldhigyada, iyo weelasha magaaladan ku hadhay,
[I say this] because the [huge] pillars [that are in front of the temple] and the large water tank and the [ten water] carts and all the other items that are used [for offering sacrifices are still in this city].
20 oo uusan Nebukadnesar oo ah boqorka Baabuloon qaadan markuu maxaabiis ahaanta u kaxaystay boqorkii dalka Yahuudah oo ahaa Yekonyaah ina Yehooyaaqiim iyo saraakiishii dadka Yahuudah iyo reer Yeruusaalemba, oo intuu Yeruusaalem ka kaxaystay uu Baabuloon la tegey,
King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon left those things here when he exiled Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, to Babylon, along with all the [other] leaders of Jerusalem and [the leaders of other places in] Judah.
21 Rabbiga ciidammada oo ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu ka leeyahay weelasha ku hadhay guriga Rabbiga iyo guriga boqorka dalka Yahuudah, iyo Yeruusaalemba,
[I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom the Israeli [people worship], say this about all those valuable things that are still outside the temple and in the palace of the king of Judah and in [other places in]:
22 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Iyaga waxaa loo qaadan doonaa Baabuloon, oo halkaasay oolli doonaan ilaa maalinta aan soo booqan doono, oo dabadeedna waan soo qaadi doonaa oo meeshan baan ku soo celin doonaa.
They will [all] be carried away to Babylon. And they will stay there until I say that they should be brought back to Jerusalem. Then they will be bought back here. [That is what I, ] Yahweh, say.’”
