Yeremia 50
1 Hili ni neno alilolisema Yahwe juu ya Babeli, nchi ya Wakalidayo, kwa mkono wa Yeremia nabii,
The word which he spoke Yahweh concerning Babylon concerning [the] land of [the] Chaldeans by [the] hand of Jeremiah the prophet.
2 “Wajulishe mataifa ili wasikie. Toa ishara ili wasikie. Usiiache. Sema, 'Babeli imetwaliwa. Beli ameaibika. Merodaki amefadhaika. Sanamu zake zimeaibishwa; vinyago vyake vimefadhaika
Declare among the nations and make a proclamation and lift up a standard make a proclamation may not you hide [it] say it will be captured Babylon it will be put to shame Bel it will be shattered Marduk they will be put to shame images its they will be shattered idols its.
3 Taifa kutoka kaskazini litainuka kinyume chake, ili kuifanya nchi yake ukiwa. Hakuna hata mmoja, awe mtu au mnyama, atakayeishi ndani yake. Wataondoka.
For it will go up on it a nation from [the] north it it will make land its into a waste and not he will be an inhabitant in it from humankind and unto animal[s] they will take flight they will go.
4 Katika siku hizo na wakati huo - hili ni tamko ya Yahwe - watu wa Israeli na watu wa Yuda watakusanyika ili kwenda kwa kulia na kumtafuta Yahwe Mungu wao.
In the days those and at the time that [the] utterance of Yahweh they will come [the] people of Israel they and [the] people of Judah together going and weeping they will go and Yahweh God their they will seek.
5 Watauliza njia ya kwenda Sayuni nao watakwenda huko, wakisema, tutakwenda wenyewe ili kuungana na Yahwe katika agano la milele lisilosahaulikal
Zion they will ask for [will be] [the] direction hither faces their come and they will join themselves to Yahweh a covenant of perpetuity not it will be forgotten.
6 Watu wangu wamekuwa kondoo waliopotea. Wachungaji wao wamewapoteza milimani; wamewageuza kutoka mlima hata mlima. Walikwenda, wakasahau mahali walipokuwa wanaishi.
Sheep lost (they have become *Q(K)*) people my shepherds their they have caused to wander them mountains (they have led away them *Q(K)*) from mountain to hill they have gone they have forgotten resting place their.
7 Kila awaendeaye anawararua. Washitaki wao walisema, 'Hatuna hatia, kwa sababu walimtenda dhambi Yahwe, nyumbani kwao halisi - Yahwe, tumaini la mababu zao.'
All [those who] found them they devoured them and opponents their they said not we are guilty because that they have sinned to Yahweh [the] habitation of righteousness and [the] hope of ancestors their Yahweh.
8 Tokeni kati ya Babeli; tokeni katika nchi ya Wakalidayo; iweni kama wafanyavyo mabeberu mbele ya kundi lote.
Take flight from [the] midst of Babylon and from [the] land of [the] Chaldeans (go forth *Q(K)*) and be like male goats before [the] flock.
9 Maana tazama, ninaelekea kupeleka na kuinua kinyume cha Babeli kundi la mataifa makubwa kutoka kaskazini. Yatajipanga yenyewe kinyume chake. Kutoka hapo Babeli utatekwa. Mishale yao ni kama shujaa mzoefu asiyerudi mikono tupu.
For here! I [am] about to rouse and [am] about to bring up on Babylon an assembly of nations great from a land of [the] north and they will line up to it from there it will be captured arrows its [will be] like a warrior skillful [who] not he returns empty.
10 Ukaldayo itakuwa mateka. Wate waitekao wataridhika - asema Yahwe.
And it will become Chaldea plunder all [those who] plunder it they will be satisfied [the] utterance of Yahweh.
11 Mnafurahi, mnasherehekea kuteka urithi wangu; mnarukaruka kama ndama anayekanyaga katika malisho yake; mnalia kama farasi mwenye nguvu.
That (you are rejoicing *Q(K)*) that (you are gloating *Q(K)*) O plunderers of inheritance my that (you are skipping about *Q(K)*) like a heifer threshing (so you may neigh *Q(K)*) like mighty [horses].
12 Hivyo mama yenu ataaibika sana; aliyewazaa atafadhaika. Tazama, atakuwa wa mwisho katika mataifa, nyika, nchi kame, na jangwa.
She will be ashamed mother your exceedingly she will be abashed [the one who] gave birth you there! [the] last of nations a wilderness a desert and a desert plain.
13 Kwa sababu ya hasira ya Yahwe, Babeli haitakaliwa, lakini itakuwa ukiwa mtupu. Kila apitaye kando ataogopa kwa sababu ya Babeli na atatoa sauti kwa sababu ya majeraha yake.
From [the] wrath of Yahweh not it will remain and it will be a waste all of it every [one who] passes by at Babylon he will be appalled and he may hiss on all wounds its.
14 Jipangeni wenyewe kumzunguka Babeli kinyume chake. Kila apindaye upinde na ampige. Msizuie mshale wenu wowote, maana amemtenda dhambi Yahwe.
Line up on Babylon - all around O all [those who] bend a bow shoot against it may not you spare an arrow for to Yahweh it has sinned.
15 Pigeni kelele za ushindi kinyume chake ninyi nyote mmzungukao. Amesalimu mamlaka yake; minara yake imeanguka. Kuta zake zimebomolewa, maana hiki ni kisasi cha Yahwe. Jilipizeni kisasi juu yake! Mtendeeni kama alivyoyatenda mataifa mengine.
Shout out on it all around it will give hand its they will fall (towers its *Q(k)*) they will be torn down walls its for [is] [the] vengeance of Yahweh that avenge yourself on it just as it has done do to it.
16 Waaribuni wote mkulima apandaye mbegu naye atumiaye mundu wakati wa mavuno katika Babeli. Haya kila mtu na arudi kwa watu wake kutoka upanga wa mtesaji; na wakimbilie katika nchi yao wenyewe.
Cut off [the] sower from Babylon and [one who] wields a sickle at a time of harvest from before [the] sword of the oppressor everyone to people his they will turn and everyone to own land his they will flee.
17 Israeli ni kondoo aliyetawanywa na kupelekwa na simba mbali. Kwanza mfalme wa Ashuru alimrarua; kisha baadaye, Nebukadneza mfalme wa Babeli akavunja mifupa yake.
[is] sheep Scattered Israel [which] lions they have driven away the first [lion] he devoured it [the] king of Assyria and this the last [lion] he gnawed bones its Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon.
18 Kwa hiyo Yahwe wa majeshi, Mungu wa Israeli, asema hivi: Tazama, nitamwadhibu mfalme wa Babeli na nchi yake, kama nilivyomwadhibu mfalme wa Ashuru.
Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to visit [judgment] to [the] king of Babylon and to land his just as I visited [judgment] to [the] king of Assyria.
19 Nitamrudisha Israeli katika nchi yake; atajilisha katika Karmeli na Bashani. Kisha atajishibisha katika nchi ya kilima ya Efraimu na Gileadi.
And I will restore Israel to pasture its and it will graze Carmel and Bashan and in [the] hill country of Ephraim and Gilead it will be satisfied appetite its.
20 Siku hizo na wakati huo, asema Yahwe, uovu utatafutwa katika Israeli, lakini hautaonekana. Nitauliza kuhusu dhambi za Yuda, lakini hazitaonekana, maana nitawasamehe mabaki niliowaacha.”
In the days those and at the time that [the] utterance of Yahweh it will be sought [the] iniquity of Israel and there not [will be] it and [the] sins of Judah and not they will be found for I will forgive [those] whom I will leave as a remnant.
21 Inuka dhidi ya nchi ya Merathaimu, kinyume chake nao waishio Pekodi. Wapigeni kwa makali ya upanga na mwatenge kwa ajili ya maangamizo - asema Yahwe - fanyeni kila ninachowaamru.
On the land of Merathaim go up on it and against [the] inhabitants of Pekod kill and totally destroy after them [the] utterance of Yahweh and do according to all that I have commanded you.
22 Sauti ya vita na maangamizi ya kustaajabisha yamo katika nchi.
A sound of battle [will be] in the land and destruction great.
23 Jinsi gani nyundo ya mataifa yote imekatiliwa mbali na kuharibiwa. Jinsi Babeli amekuwa kitu cha kushangaza kati ya mataifa.
How! it has been cut off and it has been broken [the] hammer of all the earth how! it has become a horror Babylon among the nations.
24 Nimetega mtego dhidi yako. Umenaswa, Babeli, nawe haukutambua! Ulionekana na kukamatwa, tangu uliponidhihaki, Yahwe.
I set a trap for you and also you were caught O Babylon and you not you knew you were found and also you were caught for with Yahweh you engaged in strife.
25 Yahwe amefungua ghala lake la silaha na anachukua silaha kwa ajili ya kutekekeleza hasira yake. Kuna kazi kwa ajili ya Yahwe wa majeshi katika nchi ya Wakaldayo.
He has opened Yahweh armory his and he has brought out [the] weapons of indignation his for a work it [belongs] to [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts in [the] land of [the] Chaldeans.
26 Mshambulie kutokea mbali. Fungua maghala yake ya chakula na kumrundika kama marundo ya nafaka. Mtenge mbali na maangamizi. Usimbakizie masalia.
Come to it from [the] end open granaries its pile up it like heaps and totally destroy it may not it belong to it a remnant.
27 Ua madume wake wote wa ng'ombe. Washushe sehemu ya machinjio. Ole wao, maana siku yao imefika - wakati wa kuadhibiwa kwao.
Kill all young bulls its let them go down to the slaughter woe! on them for it has come day their [the] time of punishment their.
28 Kuna sauti ya wale wanaokimbia, walionusurika, katika nchi ya Babeli. Hawa watatoa taarifa ya kisasi cha Yahwe Mungu wetu kwa Sayuni, kisasi kwa hekalu lake.”
[the] sound of Fugitives and escapees from [the] land of Babylon to declare in Zion [the] vengeance of Yahweh God our [the] vengeance of temple his.
29 Ita wapiga pinde dhidi ya Babeli - wale wote wapindao pinde zao. Piga kambi kinyume chake, na msimwache yeyote kutoroka. Mlipeni kwa kile alichofanya. Mfanyieni kwa kipimo alichotumia. Maana amemdharau Yahwe, Mtakatifu wa Israeli.
Summon against Babylon - archers all [those who] bend a bow encamp on it all around may not (it be to it *Q(K)*) escape repay to it according to deed[s] its according to all that it has done do to it for Yahweh it has defied proudly [the] holy [one] of Israel.
30 Hivyo vijana wake wataanguka katika viwanja vya mji, na wapiganaji wake wote wataangamizwa siku hiyo - hili ni tamko la Yahwe.”
Therefore they will fall young men its in open places its and all [the] men of war its they will be silenced on the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh.
31 Tazama, mimi ni kunyume chako, mwenye majivuno - hili ni tamko la Bwana Yahwe wa majeshi - maana siku yako imefika, mwenye kiburi, wakati nitakapokuadhibu.
Here I [am] against you O arrogance [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts that it has come day your [the] time [when] I will visit you.
32 Hivyo wenye kiburi watajikwaa na kuanguka. Hakuna atakaye wainua. Nitawasha moto katika miji yao; utateketeza kila kitu kati yake.
And it will stumble arrogance and it will fall and not [will belong] to it [one who] raises up and I will kindle fire in cities its and it will devour all around it.
33 Yahwe wa majeshi asema hivi: watu wa Israeli wamenyanyaswa, pamoja na watu wa Yuda. Wate waliowateka bado wanawashikilia; wanakataa kuwaacha waondoke.
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [are] oppressed [the] people of Israel and [the] people of Judah together and all captors their they have kept hold on them they have refused to let go them.
34 Yeye awaokoaye ni mwenye nguvu. Yahwe wa majeshi ni jina lake. Kwa hakika atalitetea shitaka lao, ili kuleta pumziko katika nchi, na kuwapiga wakaao Babeli.
Redeemer their - [is] strong [is] Yahweh of hosts name his certainly he will conduct case their so as to give rest to the earth and to cause disquiet to [the] inhabitants of Babylon.
35 Upanga u juu ya Wakalidayo - asema Yahwe - na juu ya wakaao Babeli, viongozi wake, na wenye hekima wake.
A sword on [the] Chaldeans [the] utterance of Yahweh and against [the] inhabitants of Babylon and against officials its and against wise [people] its.
36 Upanga unakuja juu ya waganga, ili wajione kuwa wajinga. Upanga utakuwa juu ya askari wake, hivyo watajaa hofu.
A sword against the empty talkers and they will become fools a sword against warriors its and they will be shattered.
37 Upanga utakuwa juu ya farasi wake, vibandawazi vyao na na watu wote waliomo Babeli, hivyo watakuwa kama wanawake. Upanga utakuwa juu ya ghala zake, nazo zitatekwa.
A sword against horses its and against chariotry its and against every foreigner who [is] in [the] midst of it and they will become women a sword against treasuries its and they will be plundered.
38 Ukame unakuja juu ya maji yake, hivyo yatakauka. Maana ni nchi ya miungu wasiofaa, na wanafanya kama watu waliofanywa punguani kwa miungu yao isiyosaidia.
A drought against waters its and they will dry up for [is] a land of idols it and in terrors they will act like mad people.
39 Hivyo wanyama wa jangwani wakaishi na mbwea wataishi huko, na watoto wa mbuni wataishi ndani yake. Kwa muda wote, hatakaliwa tena. Kutoka kizazi hata kizazi, hatakaliwa tena na watu.
Therefore they will dwell desert-dwellers with hyenas and they will dwell in it daughters of an ostrich and not it will remain again to perpetuity and not it will settle until a generation and a generation.
40 Kama vile Mungu alivyoziangamiza Sodoma na Gomora na majirani zake - asema Yahwe - hakuna atakayeishi huko; hakuna mtu atakayekaa ndani yake.”
Like [the] overthrow of God Sodom and Gomorrah and neighbors its [the] utterance of Yahweh not he will dwell there anyone and not he will sojourn in it a child of humankind.
41 “Tazama, watu wanakuja kutoka kaskazini, maana taifa kubwa na wafalme wengi wamemtikisa kutokea mbali.
There! a people [is] about to come from [the] north and a nation great and kings many they will be roused from [the] remotest parts of [the] earth.
42 Watachukua pinde na mishale. Ni wakatili na hawana huruma. Sauti yao ni kama mngurumo wa bahari, na wamepanda farasi katika mpangilio kama watu wapiganao, dhidi yako, bindi Babeli.
Bow and javelin they will take hold of [will be] cruel they and not they will have mercy sound their [will be] like the sea [which] it roars and on horses they will ride arranged like a man for battle on you O daughter of Babylon.
43 Mfalme wa Babeli amesikia habari yao na mikono yake imelegea kwa huzuni. Mashaka yamemshika kama mwanamke katika utungu.
He heard [the] king of Babylon report their and they hung limp hands his distress it took hold of him anguish like [woman] giving birth.
44 Tazama! Anakwenda juu kama simba atokaye katika miinuko ya Yordani kuelekea katika eneo la malisho ya uvumilivu. Maana kwa haraka nitawafanya wakimbie kutoka humo, nami nitamweka mtu aliyechaguliwa kwa uangalizi wake. Maana ni nani aliye kama mimi, na ni nani atakayeniagiza? Mchungaji gani awezaye kunizuia?
There! like a lion [which] it goes up from [the] thicket[s] of the Jordan to pastureland of an ever-flowing [stream] for I will act in a moment (I will cause to run them *Q(K)*) from on it and whoever [is] chosen to it I will appoint for who? [is] like me and who? will he summon me and who? this [is] a shepherd who he will stand before me.
45 Sikilizeni mipango ambayo Yahwe ameamua juu ya Babeli, mipango aliyonayo dhidi ya nchi ya Wakaldayo. Kwa hakika wataondolewa, hata kundi dogo zaidi. Eneo lao la malisho litageuzwa kuwa sehemu zenye magofu.
Therefore hear [the] plan of Yahweh which he has planned against Babylon and purposes his which he has purposed against [the] land of [the] Chaldeans if not people will drag away them [the] young [ones] of the flock if not he will devastate on them [the] pastureland.
46 Kwa sauti ya kuangushwa kwa Babeli nchi inatikisika, na sauti ya mateso yao inasikiwa kati ya mataifa.”
From [the] sound it has been captured Babylon it will quake the earth and a cry of distress among the nations it will be heard.
