Yeremia 14
1 Neno la Bwana lilimjia Yeremia kuhusu ukame,
Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah on [the] matters of the droughts.
2 “Wayahudi waomboleze; basi milango yake ianguke. Wao wanaomboleza kwa ajili ya ardhi; Kilio chao kwa Yerusalemu kimepaa juu.
It is in mourning Judah and gates its they are languishing they are in mourning to the earth and [the] outcry of Jerusalem it has gone up.
3 Wenye nguvu huwatuma watumishi wao kwa ajili ya maji. Wanapoingia kwenye visima, hawawezi kupata maji. Wote wanarudi hawajafanikiwa; Wao hufunika vichwa vyao na aibu.
And noble [ones] their they have sent (servants their *Q(K)*) for water they have come to [the] cisterns not they have found water they have returned vessels their empty they are ashamed and they are humiliated and they have covered head their.
4 Kwa sababu hii ardhi imepasuka, kwa maana hakuna mvua katika nchi. Wakulima huwa na aibu na kufunika vichwa vyao.
For sake of the ground [which] it is cracked for not it has come rain in the land they are ashamed farmers they have covered head their.
5 Kwa maana hata kunguru huwaacha wanawe katika mashamba, kwa maana hakuna nyasi.
For also a doe in the field it has given birth and it has abandoned for not it is grass.
6 Punda mwitu husimama kwenye mabonde yaliyo wazi na hupiga upepo kama mbweha. Macho yao yanashindwa kufanya kazi, kwa maana hakuna mimea.
And wild donkeys they have stood on [the] bare heights they have panted for breath like jackals they have failed eyes their for there not [is] vegetation.
7 Hata ingawa maovu yetu yanatushuhudia, Bwana, tenda kwa ajili ya jina lako. Kwa sababu matendo yetu yasiyo na imani yamezidi; tumekutenda dhambi.
Though iniquities our they have testified against us O Yahweh act for [the] sake of name your for they are many apostasies our to you we have sinned.
8 Matumaini ya Israeli, yule anayemwokoa wakati wa dhiki, kwa nini utakuwa kama mgeni katika nchi, kama mtu akaaye nchi ya kigeni ambaye hujinyoosha na kutumia hutumia usiku mmoja tu?
O hope of Israel deliverer its in a time of distress why? are you like a sojourner in the land and like a traveler [who] he has turned aside to spend [the] night.
9 Kwa nini utakuwa kama mtu aliyechanganyikiwa, kama shujaa ambaye hawezi kuokoa mtu yeyote? Kwa maana wewe u katikati yetu, Bwana! Jina lako limetangazwa juu yetu. Usiondoke
Why? are you like a person astounded like a warrior [who] not he is able to save and you [are] in midst our O Yahweh and name your on us it is called may not you abandon us.
10 Bwana awaambia hivi watu hawa “Kwa kuwa wanapenda kutanga tanga, hawakuzuia miguu yao kufanya hivyo.” Bwana hafurahi nao. Sasa anawakumbusha uovu wao na ameadhibu dhambi zao.
Thus he says Yahweh of the people this thus they have loved to wander feet their not they have restrained and Yahweh not he has accepted them now he will remember iniquity their so he may punish sins their.
11 Bwana akaniambia, Usiombe kwa ajili ya watu hawa.
And he said Yahweh to me may not you pray for the people this for good.
12 Maana ikiwa wanafunga, sitasikiliza kulia kwao; na wanapotoa sadaka za kuteketezwa na sadaka za unga, sitawafurahia. Kwa maana nitawaangamiza kwa upanga, njaa, na tauni.
For they will fast not I [will be] listening to cry of entreaty their even if they will offer up a burnt offering and a grain offering not I [will be] accepting them for by the sword and by famine and by pestilence I [will be] bringing to an end them.
13 Ndipo nikasema, “Ee Bwana, Bwana! Angalia! mabii wanawaambia watu, 'Huwezi kuona upanga; hakutakuwa na njaa kwako, kwa kuwa nitakupa usalama wa kweli mahali hapa.'”
And I said alas! - O Lord Yahweh here! the prophets [are] saying to them not you will see sword and famine not it will happen to you for peace of reliability I will give to you in the place this.
14 Bwana akaniambia, 'manabii wanatabiri uongo kwa jina langu. Sikuwafukuza, wala sikuwapa amri au kusema nao. Lakini maono ya udanganyifu na ya maana, uchawi wa udanganyifu unaotokana na akili zao ndicho wanachowahubiria.”
And he said Yahweh to me falsehood the prophets [are] prophesying in name my not I sent them and not I appointed them and not I spoke to them a vision of falsehood and divination (and an idol *Q(K)*) (and [the] deceitfulness of *Q(k)*) own heart their they [are] prophesying to you.
15 Kwa hiyo Bwana asema hivi, “Kwa habari ya manabii wakihubiri kwa jina langu, ambao mimi siwakutuma; wale wanaosema kuwa hakutakuwa na upanga wala njaa katika nchi hii mabii hawa wataangamia kwa upanga na njaa.
Therefore thus he says Yahweh on the prophets who are prophesying in name my and I not I sent them and they [are] saying sword and famine not it will happen in the land this by the sword and by famine they will meet their end the prophets those.
16 Na watu waliopewa utabiri watafukuzwa nje ya barabara za Yerusalemu kwa sababu ya njaa na upanga; kwa kuwa hakuna mtu wa kuwazikas-wao, na wake zao, na wana wao, wala binti zao; kwa maana nitamwaga uovu wao wenyewe juu yao.
And the people whom they [are] prophesying to them they will be thrown out in [the] streets of Jerusalem because of - the famine and the sword and not a burier [will belong] to them them wives their and sons their and daughters their and I will pour out on them wickedness their.
17 Sema neno hili kwao 'Acha macho yangu yatokwe machozi, usiku na mchana. wala yasikome, kwa kuwa kutakuwa na kuanguka kwa bikira, binti ya watu wangu - jeraha kubwa lisilotibika.
And you will speak to them the word this let them run down eyes my tear[s] night and by day and may not they cease for a breaking great she has been broken [the] virgin of [the] daughter of people my a wound made sick very.
18 Ikiwa nitatoka kwenye shamba basi angalia! kuna wale waliouawa kwa upanga. Na kama nitakuja mjini, basi, tazama! kuna wale walio na ugonjwa wa njaa. Hata nabii na kuhani wote wanatembea juu ya nchi bila maarifa.'”
If I went out the field and there! [those] slain of a sword and if I went the city and there! diseases of famine for both prophet as well as priest they have gone about to a land and not they know.
19 Je! Umemkataa kabisa Yuda? Je, unaichukia Sayuni? Kwa nini umetupiga wakati hakuna uponyaji kwetu? Tulitumaini amani, lakini hapakuwa na kitu kizuri-na kwa wakati wa uponyaji, lakini tazama, kuna hofu tu.
¿ Really have you rejected Judah or? Zion does it abhor self your why? have you struck us and not [belongs] to us healing we waited eagerly for peace and there not [was] good and for a time of healing and there! terror.
20 Tunakubali, Bwana, makosa yetu, uovu wa babu zetu, kwa kuwa tumekukosea.
We know O Yahweh wickedness our [the] iniquity of ancestors our for we have sinned to you.
21 Usitukatae! Kwa ajili ya jina lako, usikifedheheshe kiti chako cha enzi cha utukufu. Kumbuka na usivunje agano lako na sisi.
May not you spurn for [the] sake of name your may not you treat with contempt [the] throne of glory your remember may not you break covenant your with us.
22 Je, kuna miongoni mwa sanamu za mataifa yeyote zinazoweza kuifanya mbingu kutoa mvua? Je, si wewe, Bwana Mungu wetu, ambaye hufanya jambo hili? Tunatumaini kwako, kwa kuwa umefanya mambo haya yote.
¿ [are] there Among [the] vanities of the nations [those who] send rain and or? the heavens do they give copious showers ¿ not you [is] it O Yahweh God our so we may wait eagerly for you for you you have done all these [things].
