Yeremyaah 5
1 Bal jidadka Yeruusaalem hore iyo dib ugu orda, oo bal fiiriya, oo garta, oo meelaheeda balballaadhanna ka doondoona nin qudha oo caddaalad sameeya oo runta doondoona, oo haddaad ka heli kartaanna iyada waan cafiyi doonaa.
[Yahweh said to the people of Jerusalem], “Go up and down every street. Search in the marketplaces to find people who do what is fair/right, who try to be faithful to me. [If you find even one person like that], I will forgive [the people of Jerusalem and not destroy] their city.
2 Oo weliba in kastoo ay yidhaahdaan, Waa iga Rabbiga nool, sida xaqiiqada ah been bay ku dhaartaan.
But when people there say, ‘I solemnly declare that as surely as Yahweh lives, [I will do what he says],’ they are lying.”
3 Rabbiyow, indhahaagu runta sow ma fiiriyaan? Iyaga wax baad ku dhufatay, laakiinse innaba kama ay xumaan, oo waad baabbi'isay, laakiinse way diideen inay edeb qaataan. Wejigoodiina waxay ka dhigeen wax dhagax ka sii adag, oo inay soo noqdaanna way diideen.
Yahweh, you are certainly [RHQ] searching for [people who tell the] truth. You struck/punished your people, but they did not pay any attention. You crushed them, but they ignored what you were telling them to do. They were extremely stubborn [IDM] and refused to return to you.
4 Markaasaan idhi, Sida xaqiiqada ah kuwanu waa masaakiin, oo waa nacasyo, waayo, Rabbiga jidkiisa iyo qaynuunka Ilaahooda toona garan maayaan.
I thought, “[We cannot expect] these [people to act righteously, because they] are poor; they do not have any sense. They do not know the way Yahweh wants them to conduct their lives; they do not know what God requires them to do.
5 Waxaan u tegi doonaa ragga waaweyn, oo waan la hadli doonaa, waayo, iyagu Rabbiga jidkiisa iyo qaynuunka Ilaahooda way yaqaaniin. Laakiinse kuwanu dhammaantood harqoodkii way jebiyeen, oo xadhkihiina way kala gooyeen.
So, I will go and talk to their leaders, because they [surely] know how God wants them to conduct their lives.” But they also have stopped obeying Yahweh [MET], and they will not allow him to lead them.
6 Oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaa iyaga dili doona libaax kaynta ka soo baxay, oo waxaa baabbi'in doonta yeyda fiideed. Oo magaalooyinkoodana waxaa gaagaatami doona shabeel, oo ku alla kii halkaas ka soo baxaba waa la kala dildillaacsan doonaa, maxaa yeelay, xadgudubyadoodu waa tiro badan yihiin, oo dibunoqoshadoodiina waa sii korodhay.
Because of that, lions will come out of the forests and kill them; wolves from the desert will attack them; leopards that lurk/wait outside their cities will maul anyone who walks outside the cities. [Those things will happen] because the people have sinned very much against God and have turned away from him very frequently.
7 Sidee baan kuu saamixi karaa? Carruurtaadii way iga tageen, oo waxay ku dhaarteen kuwa aan ilaahyo ahayn, oo markaan dherdhergiyey dabadeed ayay sinaysteen, oo iyagoo guutooyin ah ayay guryihii dhillooyinka ku soo urureen.
Yahweh says, “I cannot [RHQ] forgive these people; [even] their children have abandoned me. When they solemnly declare something, they ask their gods [to show that what they say is true]. I gave my people everything that they needed, but they often went to [the shrines of their idols] and committed adultery there.
8 Waxay la mid noqdeen sidii fardo aroortii la barqiyey, oo midkood kastaaba wuxuu ka daba dananay naagtii deriskiisa.
[Just like] [MET] well-fed male horses neigh, wanting sex with female horses, each of the men desires to have sex with his neighbor’s wife.
9 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaanan iyaga waxyaalahan u ciqaabayn? Miyaanse naftaydu ka aarsanayn quruuntii tan oo kale ah?
(Should I not punish them for this [RHQ]?/I will certainly get revenge on this nation for this!) I will certainly get revenge [RHQ] on this nation whose people behave like that!
10 Derbiyadeeda fuula oo dumiya, laakiinse ha wada baabbi'inina. Laamaheedana qaada, waayo, kuwii Rabbiga ma aha.
[I will say to your enemies], ‘The people [of Judah and Israel are like a vineyard]. Go along the rows in their vineyards and get rid of [most of] the people, but do not kill all of them. These people do not belong to me, [so get rid of them], [like a gardener] [MET] lops/cuts off branches from a vine.
11 Waayo, dadka Israa'iil iyo dadka Yahuudahba khiyaano bay igula macaamiloodeen, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.
The people of Israel and Judah have turned away from me completely.’
12 Rabbiga way dafireen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Isagu ma jiro. Masiibo nagu dhici mayso, oo seef iyo abaar midna arki mayno.
They have lied about me and said, ‘He will not punish us! He will not cause us to experience disasters! We will not experience wars or famines!
13 Oo nebiyaduna dabayl bay noqon doonaan, oo eraygu iyaga kuma jiro, oo sidaasaa iyaga lagu samayn doonaa.
What [God’s] prophets say is nothing but hot air! They do not have messages [from God]! We would like [the disasters that they predict] to happen to them!’”
14 Oo sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ah Ilaaha ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Erayadan aad ku hadasheen aawadood bal ogaada, ereyga afkaaga ku jira dab baan ka dhigi doonaa, oo dadkanna waxaan ka dhigi doonaa xaabo, oo isna wuu wada baabbi'in doonaa dhammaantood.
So, this is what Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of angels in heaven, has said to me: “Because my people are saying those things, I will give you a message to tell them [MTY] that will be [like] [MET] a fire, and [these people will be like] [MET] wood that the fire will burn up.
15 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Dadka Israa'iilow, bal ogaada, quruun baan meel fog idinkaga keeni doonaa, oo taasu waa quruun xoog badan, oo waa quruun tan iyo waa hore jirtay, oo waa quruun aydaan afkeeda aqoon, oo aydaan innaba garanayn wax alla waxay yidhaahdaanba.
Listen to this, you people of Israel: I will bring [the army of] a distant nation to attack you. It is a very powerful nation that has existed for a long time. They speak a language that you do not know and which you will not be able to understand.
16 Gabooyahoodu waa sida qabri af bannaan, oo kulligoodna waa wada rag xoog leh.
Their soldiers are all very strong, and the arrows from their quivers [MET] will (send many Israeli men to their graves/cause many Israeli people to die).
17 Oo iyagu waxay dhammayn doonaan waxaad beeraha ka goosataan iyo kibistiinna, oo waxay dhammayn doonaan wiilashiinna iyo gabdhihiinna, oo waxay dhammayn doonaan adhyihiinna iyo lo'diinnaba, oo waxay dhammayn doonaan canabkiinna iyo berdihiinnaba, oo magaalooyinkiinna deyrka leh oo aad isku hallaynaysaanna seef bay la dhici doonaan.
They will eat the food that you have harvested from your fields, and eat your bread. They will kill your sons and daughters, and they will kill your flocks [of sheep] and herds [of cattle]. They will eat your grapes and your figs. They will [also] destroy your cities that have high walls around them and kill the people with their swords.
18 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Habase ahaatee, anigu wakhtigaas idin wada baabbi'in maayo.
But even when those things happen, I will not get rid of all of you.
19 Oo markay yidhaahdaan, Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ahu bal muxuu waxyaalahan oo dhan noogu sameeyey? Kolkaas waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sidaad Rabbiga uga tagteen, oo aad ilaahyo qalaad dalkiinna ugu dhex adeegteen, sidaas oo kalaad shisheeyayaal ugu dhex adeegi doontaan dal aan kiinna ahayn.
And when the survivors ask, ‘Why is Yahweh our God doing this to us?’ you will tell them, ‘You rejected him and worshiped foreign gods in your [own] land, so [now] you will become slaves of foreigners in a land that is not your land.’”
20 Waxan dadka Yacquub ka dhex sheega, oo dadka Yahuudah ka dhex naadiya, oo waxaad tidhaahdaan,
[Yahweh said to me], “Proclaim this to the people of Israel and Judah:
21 Dadka nacasyada ahu oo aan waxgarashada lahayn, oo indhaha leh laakiinse aan waxba arkin, oo dhegaha leh laakiinse aan waxba maqlinow, bal haatan waxan maqla:
Listen to this, you people who are foolish and who do not have any sense: You have eyes, but [it is as though] you cannot see; you have ears, but [it is as though] you cannot hear.
22 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, War miyeydaan iga cabsanayn? Oo miyeydaan hortayda ku gariirayn? Waayo, anigu waxaan ahay kii cammuudda badda uga dhigay soohdinta, oo amar weligiis ah bixiyey inayan soo dhaafin, oo in kastoo ay mawjadaheedu aad u dhacaan, innaba kama ay adkaan karaan, oo in kastoo ay guuxaanna marna sooma ay dhaafi karaan.
Why do you not revere me [RHQ]? You should [RHQ] tremble when you are in my presence! I, Yahweh, am the one who put a barrier along the shores so that the waters of the ocean cannot cross it [and flood the land]. The waves roll and roar, but they cannot go past that barrier.
23 Laakiinse dadkanu waxay leeyihiin qalbi fallaagoobaya oo caasiyoobay, way fallaagoobeen oo way iska tageen.
But you people [are not like the waves that obey me]. You people are very stubborn and rebellious. You have constantly turned away from me.
24 Oo innaba qalbigooda iskama ay yidhaahdaan, War haatan aynu ka cabsanno Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ah oo roobka hore iyo kan dambeba xilligiisa ina siiya, oo toddobaadyada beergoosashada loo go'ay inoo haya.
You do not say to yourselves, ‘We should revere Yahweh our God, the one who sends us rain at the times when we need it, the one who causes the grain to become ripe at the harvest season.’
25 Xumaatooyinkiinna ayaa waxyaalahan idinka celiyey, oo dembiyadiinna ayaa waxyaalo wanwanaagsan idinka diiday.
It is because of the wrong things that you have done, that those good things have not happened; it is because of the sins that you have committed that you have been prevented from receiving those blessings.
26 Waayo, dadkayga dhexdiisa waxaa laga helaa niman shar ah. Waxay u gabbadaan sida kuwa wax dabta, oo intay dabin u qoolaan ayay dad qabsadaan.
Among my people are wicked people who hide along the roads to ambush/attack people like [SIM] men who hunt birds (put out nets/set traps) to catch them.
27 Sida qafas shimbirro ka buuxaan oo kale ayaa guryahooda khiyaano uga buuxdaa, oo sidaas daraaddeed ayay u weynaadeen oo u taajiroobeen.
Like [a hunter has] a cage full of birds [that he has captured], their homes are full of things that they have gotten by deceiving others. So now they are [very] rich and powerful.
28 Aad bay u buurnaadeen oo cayileen, oo xataa falimaha sharka ahna aad bay u badiyaan, ma garsooraan oo agoontana uma ay muddacaan si ay u barwaaqoobaan, oo masaakiintana xaqooda uma ay sameeyaan.
They are big and fat, and there is no limit to the evil things that they have done. They do not try to defend orphans in the courtrooms, and they do not help poor people to get what they have a right to receive.
29 Haddaba Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Miyaanan iyaga waxyaalahan u ciqaabayn? Miyaanse naftaydu ka aarsanayn quruuntii tan oo kale ah?
So I will certainly [RHQ] punish them for doing those things. I will certainly [RHQ] (get revenge on their nation/do to their nation what they deserve).
30 Wax baas oo yaab miidhan ah ayaa dalka lagu dhex sameeyey.
Very appalling/horrible and terrible [DOU] things are happening in this country:
31 Nebiyadii waxay sii sheegaan wax been ah, oo wadaaddadiina waxay wax ku xukumaan iyaga taladooda, oo dadkaygiina saasay jecel yihiin, laakiinse bal maxaad ugudambaysta samayn doontaan?
Prophets speak [only] lies and priests rule by their own authority, and you people like that! But when you [start to] experience disasters, what will you do [RHQ]?”
