Yeremia 14
1 Neno la Bwana lilimjia Yeremia kuhusu ukame,
καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρὸς Ιερεμιαν περὶ τῆς ἀβροχίας
2 “Wayahudi waomboleze; basi milango yake ianguke. Wao wanaomboleza kwa ajili ya ardhi; Kilio chao kwa Yerusalemu kimepaa juu.
ἐπένθησεν ἡ Ιουδαία καὶ αἱ πύλαι αὐτῆς ἐκενώθησαν καὶ ἐσκοτώθησαν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἡ κραυγὴ τῆς Ιερουσαλημ ἀνέβη
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.
καὶ οἱ μεγιστᾶνες αὐτῆς ἀπέστειλαν τοὺς νεωτέρους αὐτῶν ἐφ’ ὕδωρ ἤλθοσαν ἐπὶ τὰ φρέατα καὶ οὐχ εὕροσαν ὕδωρ καὶ ἀπέστρεψαν τὰ ἀγγεῖα αὐτῶν κενά
4 Kwa sababu hii ardhi imepasuka, kwa maana hakuna mvua katika nchi. Wakulima huwa na aibu na kufunika vichwa vyao.
καὶ τὰ ἔργα τῆς γῆς ἐξέλιπεν ὅτι οὐκ ἦν ὑετός ᾐσχύνθησαν γεωργοί ἐπεκάλυψαν τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν
5 Kwa maana hata kunguru huwaacha wanawe katika mashamba, kwa maana hakuna nyasi.
καὶ ἔλαφοι ἐν ἀγρῷ ἔτεκον καὶ ἐγκατέλιπον ὅτι οὐκ ἦν βοτάνη
6 Punda mwitu husimama kwenye mabonde yaliyo wazi na hupiga upepo kama mbweha. Macho yao yanashindwa kufanya kazi, kwa maana hakuna mimea.
ὄνοι ἄγριοι ἔστησαν ἐπὶ νάπας εἵλκυσαν ἄνεμον ἐξέλιπον οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτῶν ὅτι οὐκ ἦν χόρτος ἀπὸ λαοῦ ἀδικίας
7 Hata ingawa maovu yetu yanatushuhudia, Bwana, tenda kwa ajili ya jina lako. Kwa sababu matendo yetu yasiyo na imani yamezidi; tumekutenda dhambi.
εἰ αἱ ἁμαρτίαι ἡμῶν ἀντέστησαν ἡμῖν κύριε ποίησον ἡμῖν ἕνεκεν σοῦ ὅτι πολλαὶ αἱ ἁμαρτίαι ἡμῶν ἐναντίον σοῦ ὅτι σοὶ ἡμάρτομεν
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?
ὑπομονὴ Ισραηλ κύριε καὶ σῴζεις ἐν καιρῷ κακῶν ἵνα τί ἐγενήθης ὡσεὶ πάροικος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ὡς αὐτόχθων ἐκκλίνων εἰς κατάλυμα
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
μὴ ἔσῃ ὥσπερ ἄνθρωπος ὑπνῶν ἢ ὡς ἀνὴρ οὐ δυνάμενος σῴζειν καὶ σὺ ἐν ἡμῖν εἶ κύριε καὶ τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐπικέκληται ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς μὴ ἐπιλάθῃ ἡμῶν
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.
οὕτως λέγει κύριος τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ ἠγάπησαν κινεῖν πόδας αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ ἐφείσαντο καὶ ὁ θεὸς οὐκ εὐδόκησεν ἐν αὐτοῖς νῦν μνησθήσεται τῶν ἀδικιῶν αὐτῶν
11 Bwana akaniambia, Usiombe kwa ajili ya watu hawa.
καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με μὴ προσεύχου περὶ τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου εἰς ἀγαθά
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.
ὅτι ἐὰν νηστεύσωσιν οὐκ εἰσακούσομαι τῆς δεήσεως αὐτῶν καὶ ἐὰν προσενέγκωσιν ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ θυσίας οὐκ εὐδοκήσω ἐν αὐτοῖς ὅτι ἐν μαχαίρᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ καὶ ἐν θανάτῳ ἐγὼ συντελέσω αὐτούς
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.'”
καὶ εἶπα ὦ κύριε ἰδοὺ οἱ προφῆται αὐτῶν προφητεύουσιν καὶ λέγουσιν οὐκ ὄψεσθε μάχαιραν οὐδὲ λιμὸς ἔσται ἐν ὑμῖν ὅτι ἀλήθειαν καὶ εἰρήνην δώσω ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ
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.”
καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με ψευδῆ οἱ προφῆται προφητεύουσιν ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου οὐκ ἀπέστειλα αὐτοὺς καὶ οὐκ ἐνετειλάμην αὐτοῖς καὶ οὐκ ἐλάλησα πρὸς αὐτούς ὅτι ὁράσεις ψευδεῖς καὶ μαντείας καὶ οἰωνίσματα καὶ προαιρέσεις καρδίας αὐτῶν αὐτοὶ προφητεύουσιν ὑμῖν
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.
διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει κύριος περὶ τῶν προφητῶν τῶν προφητευόντων ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου ψευδῆ καὶ ἐγὼ οὐκ ἀπέστειλα αὐτούς οἳ λέγουσιν μάχαιρα καὶ λιμὸς οὐκ ἔσται ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ταύτης ἐν θανάτῳ νοσερῷ ἀποθανοῦνται καὶ ἐν λιμῷ συντελεσθήσονται οἱ προφῆται
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.
καὶ ὁ λαός οἷς αὐτοὶ προφητεύουσιν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἔσονται ἐρριμμένοι ἐν ταῖς διόδοις Ιερουσαλημ ἀπὸ προσώπου μαχαίρας καὶ τοῦ λιμοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ θάπτων αὐτούς καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν καὶ ἐκχεῶ ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς τὰ κακὰ αὐτῶν
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.
καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὸν λόγον τοῦτον καταγάγετε ἐπ’ ὀφθαλμοὺς ὑμῶν δάκρυα ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός καὶ μὴ διαλιπέτωσαν ὅτι συντρίμματι συνετρίβη θυγάτηρ λαοῦ μου καὶ πληγῇ ὀδυνηρᾷ σφόδρα
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.'”
ἐὰν ἐξέλθω εἰς τὸ πεδίον καὶ ἰδοὺ τραυματίαι μαχαίρας καὶ ἐὰν εἰσέλθω εἰς τὴν πόλιν καὶ ἰδοὺ πόνος λιμοῦ ὅτι ἱερεὺς καὶ προφήτης ἐπορεύθησαν εἰς γῆν ἣν οὐκ ᾔδεισαν
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.
μὴ ἀποδοκιμάζων ἀπεδοκίμασας τὸν Ιουδαν καὶ ἀπὸ Σιων ἀπέστη ἡ ψυχή σου ἵνα τί ἔπαισας ἡμᾶς καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἴασις ὑπεμείναμεν εἰς εἰρήνην καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἀγαθά εἰς καιρὸν ἰάσεως καὶ ἰδοὺ ταραχή
20 Tunakubali, Bwana, makosa yetu, uovu wa babu zetu, kwa kuwa tumekukosea.
ἔγνωμεν κύριε ἁμαρτήματα ἡμῶν ἀδικίας πατέρων ἡμῶν ὅτι ἡμάρτομεν ἐναντίον σου
21 Usitukatae! Kwa ajili ya jina lako, usikifedheheshe kiti chako cha enzi cha utukufu. Kumbuka na usivunje agano lako na sisi.
κόπασον διὰ τὸ ὄνομά σου μὴ ἀπολέσῃς θρόνον δόξης σου μνήσθητι μὴ διασκεδάσῃς τὴν διαθήκην σου τὴν μεθ’ ἡμῶν
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.
μὴ ἔστιν ἐν εἰδώλοις τῶν ἐθνῶν ὑετίζων καὶ εἰ ὁ οὐρανὸς δώσει πλησμονὴν αὐτοῦ οὐχὶ σὺ εἶ αὐτός καὶ ὑπομενοῦμέν σε ὅτι σὺ ἐποίησας πάντα ταῦτα
