Yeremyaah 45

1 Kanu waa eraygii uu Nebi Yeremyaah kula hadlay Baaruug ina Neeriiyaah markuu erayadan kitaab kaga qoray afkii Yeremyaah, taasoo ahayd sannaddii afraad ee Yehooyaaqiim ina Yoosiyaah uu dalka Yahuudah boqorka ka ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Baaruugow,

The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch, the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book, from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, saying:

2 Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu kugu leeyahay,

“Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, to you, Baruch:

3 Adigu waxaad tidhi, Anigaa iska hoogay haatan, waayo, Rabbigu xanuunkaygii murug buu iigu sii daray. Taahiddaydii, waan la daalay, oo innaba nasasho ma aan helin.

You have said: ‘Woe to me, a wretched man! For the Lord has added sorrow to my sorrow. I have labored in my groaning, and I have not found rest.’

4 Waxaad isaga ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Wixii aan dhisay waan dumin doonaa, oo wixii aan beerayna waan rujin doonaa, taasuna waa dalka oo dhan.

Thus says the Lord: So shall you say to him: Behold, those whom I have built up, I destroy, and those whom I have planted, I uproot, even this entire land.

5 Ma nafsaddaadaad waxyaalo waaweyn u doondoonaysaa? Ha doondoonin, waayo, bal ogow, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Anigu masiibaan binu-aadmiga oo dhan ku soo dejin doonaa, laakiinse meel alla meeshii aad tagtidba naftaadaan booli ahaan kuu siin doonaa.

And are you seeking great things for yourself? Do not choose to seek them. For behold, I will lead evil over all that is flesh, says the Lord. But I will give your life to you unto salvation, in every place, wherever you may travel.”
