< Yeremia 22 >
1 Bwana asema hivi, “Nenda kwenye nyumba ya mfalme wa Yuda, utangaze neno hili huko.
The Lord seith these thingis, Go thou doun in to the hous of the kyng of Juda, and thou schalt speke there this word, and schalt seie,
2 Ukaseme, 'Ewe Mfalme wa Yuda, wewe aliyeketi kiti cha Daudi, usikilize neno la Bwana. Nisikilizeni, enyi watumishi wake, na ninyi, watu wake mnaokuja kwa malango haya.
Thou kyng of Juda, that sittist on the seete of Dauid, here the word of the Lord, thou, and thi seruauntis, and thi puple, that entren bi these yatis.
3 Bwana asema hivi, “Fanya haki na uadilifu, na mtu yeyote ambaye ameibiwa-muokoeni kutoka mkononi mwa mshindani. Usimtendee mabaya mgeni yeyote katika nchi yako, au yatima au mjane. Usifanye vurugu au kumwaga damu isiyo na hatia mahali hapa.
The Lord seith these thingis, Do ye doom, and riytfulnesse, and delyuere ye hym that is oppressid bi violence fro the hond of the fals chalenger; and nyle ye make sori, nether oppresse ye wickidli a comelyng, and a fadirles child, and a widewe, and schede ye not out innocent blood in this place.
4 Kwa kuwa mkifanya mambo hayo, basi wafalme wanaoketi kiti cha Daudi wataingia milango ya nyumba hii wakiendesha gari na farasi, yeye, watumishi wake, na watu wake!
For if ye doynge don this word, kyngis of the kyn of Dauid sittynge on his trone schulen entre bi the yatis of this hous, and schulen stie on charis and horsis, thei, and the seruauntis, and the puple of hem.
5 Lakini ikiwa hamsikilizi maneno haya kutoka kwangu ambayo nimeyasema-hili ndilo tamko la Bwana-basi nyumba hii ya kifalme itaharibiwa.'”
That if ye heren not these wordis, Y swoore in my silf, seith the Lord, that this hous schal be in to wildirnesse.
6 Kwa maana Bwana asema hivi juu ya nyumba ya mfalme wa Yuda, “Wewe uko kama Gileadi, au kama kilele cha Lebanoni kwangu. Hata hivyo nitakugeuza kuwa jangwa, katika miji isiyo na wenyeji.
For the Lord seith these thingis on the hous of the kyng of Juda, Galaad, thou art to me the heed of the Liban; credence be not youun to me, if Y sette not thee a wildirnesse, citees vnhabitable.
7 Kwa kuwa nimewaagiza waharibifu kuja juu yenu! Watu wenye silaha zao watakata mierezi yako iliyo bora na kuiacha kuanguka kwenye moto.
And Y schal halewe on thee a man sleynge, and hise armuris; and thei schulen kitte doun thi chosun cedris, and schulen caste doun in to fier.
8 Kisha mataifa mengi yatapita kwenye mji huu. Kila mtu atamwambia yule anayefuata, “Mbona Bwana amefanya hivi kwa jiji hili kuu?”
And many folkis schulen passe bi this citee, and ech man schal seie to his neiybore, Whi dide the Lord thus to this greet citee?
9 Na mwingine atajibu, “Kwa sababu waliiacha agano la Bwana, Mungu wao, wakainama kwa miungu mingine, wakaiabudu.”
And thei schulen answere, For thei forsoken the couenaunt of her Lord God, and worschipiden alien goddis, and serueden hem.
10 Usilie kwa ajili ya aliyekufa. Usiomboleze kwa ajili yake. Lakini mlilie mtu yeyote anayeingia kifungoni, kwa maana hatarudi tena kuiona nchi aliyozaliwa.'
Nyle ye biwepe hym that is deed, nether weile ye on hym bi wepyng; biweile ye hym that goith out, for he schal no more turne ayen, nether he schal se the lond of his birthe.
11 Maana Bwana asema hivi juu ya Yehoahazi, mwana wa Yosia, mfalme wa Yuda, aliyekuwa mfalme badala ya Yosia babaye, 'ametoka mahali hapa, wala hatarudi.
For the Lord seith these thingis to Sellum, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, that regnede for Josye, his fadir, He that yede out of this place, schal no more turne ayen hidur;
12 Atakufa huko mahali ambapo walimchukua mateka, na hataiona tena nchi hii.'
but in the place to which Y translatide him, there he schal die, and he schal no more se this lond.
13 Ole mtu yeyote anayejenga nyumba yake kwa uovu na vyumba vyake vya juu katika udhalimu; ambao wengine hufanya kazi, lakini hawalipwi.
Wo to him that bildith his hous in vnriytfulnesse, and his soleris not in doom; he schal oppresse his freend in veyn, and he schal not yelde his hire to hym.
14 Ole mtu yeyote atakayesema, 'Nitajenga nyumba ndefu na vyumba vya juu vipana, na hujenga madirisha mapana, na kuta zenye mwerezi, na huipaka rangi nyekundu.'
Which seith, Y schal bilde to me a large hous, and wide soleris; which openeth wyndows to hym silf, and makith couplis of cedre, and peyntith with reed colour.
15 Je, hii ndiyo inakufanya uwe mfalme mzuri, kwamba unataka kuwa na mbao za mwerezi? Je baba yako hakula na kunywa, lakini lakini alifanya hukumu na haki? Kisha mambo yakawa mazuri kwa ajili yake.
Whether thou schalt regne, for thou comparisonest thee to a cedre? whether thi fadir eet not, and drank, and dide doom and riytfulnesse thanne, whanne it was wel to hym?
16 Alihukumu maneno ya masikini na mhitaji. Ilikuwa vizuri. Je, huku siko kunijua mimi? - hili ni tamko la Bwana.
He demyde the cause of a pore man, and nedi, in to his good; whether not therfor for he knew me? seith the Lord.
17 Lakini hakuna kitu machoni na moyoni mwako isipokuwa wasiwasi kwa faida yako isiyo ya haki na kwa kumwaga damu isiyo na hatia, kwa ukandamizaji kuwatendea jeuri wengine.
Forsothe thin iyen and herte ben to aueryce, and to schede innocent blood, and to fals caleng, and to the perfourmyng of yuel werk.
18 Kwa hiyo Bwana asema hivi juu ya Yehoyakimu, mwana wa Yosia, mfalme wa Yuda. Hawatamwomboleza wakisema 'ole, ndugu yangu! au 'Ole, dada yangu!' Hawataomboleza kwa kusema 'Ole, bwana! ' au 'ole, utukufu!'
Therfor the Lord seith these thingis to Joachym, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, Thei schulen not biweile hym, Wo brother! and wo sistir! thei schulen not sowne togidere to hym, Wo lord! and wo noble man!
19 Atazikwa maziko ya punda, ataburuzwa mbali na kutupwa nje ya milango ya Yerusalemu.
He schal be biried with the biriyng of an asse, he schal be rotun, and cast forth without the yatis of Jerusalem.
20 Panda milima ya Lebanoni piga kelele. Paza sauti yako Bashani. Piga kelele kutoka kwenye milima ya Abarimu, kwa maana marafiki zako wote wataharibiwa.
Stie thou on the Liban, and cry thou, and yyue thi vois in Basan, and cry to hem that passen forth, for alle thi louyeris ben al to-brokun.
21 Nilinena nawe wakati ulioko salama, lakini ukasema, 'Sitasikia.' Hii ilikuwa desturi yako tangu ujana wako, kwani hukusikiliza sauti yangu.
Y spak to thee in thi plentee, and thou seidist, Y schal not here; this is thi weie fro thi yongthe, for thou herdist not my vois.
22 Upepo utawalisha wachungaji wako wote, na marafiki zako watakwenda kufungwa. Hakika wewe utakuwa na aibu na kufadhaika kwa matendo yako yote mabaya.
Wynd schal feede alle thi scheepherdis, and thi louyeris schulen go in to caitifte;
23 Wewe mfalme, wewe ambaye huishi katika Nyumba ya Msitu wa Lebanoni, wewe aliyefanya kiota kati ya mierezi, utakuwa na hali ya kuhurumiwa utakapopata utungu kama wakati wa kuzaa.”
and thanne thou that sittist in the Liban, and makist nest in cedris, schalt be schent, and be aschamed of al thi malice. Hou weilidist thou, whanne sorewis weren comun to thee, as the sorew of a womman trauelynge of child?
24 “Kama mimi niishivyo-hili ndilo tamko la Bwana-hata kama wewe, Konia, mwana wa Yehoyakimu, mfalme wa Yuda, ulikuwa alama ya mkono wangu wa kulia, ningekuangusha.
I lyue, seith the Lord, for thouy Jeconye, the sone of Joachym, kyng of Juda, were a ring in my riyt hond, fro thennus Y schal drawe awei hym.
25 Kwa kuwa nimewatia mikono ya wale wanaotaka uhai wenu na kwenye mkono wa wale ambao mnawaogopa, hata mkononi mwa Nebukadreza, mfalme wa Babeli na Wakaldayo.
And Y schal yyue thee in the hond of hem that seken thi lijf, and in the hond of hem whos face thou dredist, and in the hond of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and in the hond of Caldeis.
26 Nitawatupa wewe na mama yako aliyekuzaa katika nchi nyingine, nchi ambayo hujazaliwa, na huko utakufa.
And Y schal sende thee, and thi moder that gendride thee, in to an alien lond, in which ye weren not borun, and there ye schulen die;
27 Na kuhusu eneo hili ambalo watataka kurudi, hawatarudi hapa.
and thei schulen not turne ayen in to the lond, to which thei reisen her soule, that thei turne ayen thidur.
28 Je! Hiki ni chombo kilichodharauliwa na kilichopasuka? Je, Konia ni chombo kilichodharauliwa? Kwa nini wamemtupa yeye na wazao wake, kumpeleka katika nchi wasiyoijua?
Whether this man Jeconye is an erthene vessel, and al to-brokun? whether a vessel withouten al likyng? Whi ben he and his seed cast awei, and cast forth in to a lond which thei knewen not?
29 Ee Ardhi, Ardhi, Ardhi! Sikieni neno la Bwana!
Erthe, erthe, erthe, here thou the word of the Lord.
30 Bwana asema hivi, 'Andika juu ya mtu huyu Konia Yeye hatakuwa na mtoto. Hatafanikiwa wakati wa siku zake, wala hakuna hata mmoja kati ya uzao wake atakayefanikiwa au kuketi tena kwenye kiti cha Daudi na kutawala juu ya Yuda.'”
The Lord seith these thingis, Write thou this man bareyn, a man that schal not haue prosperite in hise daies; for of his seed schal be no man, that schal sitte on the seete of Dauid, and haue powere ferthere in Juda.
