< Maombolezo 1 >
1 Mji ambao mwanzo ulikuwa na watu wengi sasa umekaa peke yake. Amekuwa kama mjane, japo alikuwa taifa kubwa. Alikuwa mtoto wa mfalme miongoni mwa mataifa, lakini sasa amelazimishwa utumwani.
Aleph. Hou sittith aloone the citee ful of puple? the ladi of folkis is maad as a widewe; the prince of prouynces is maad vndir tribute.
2 Analia na kuomboleza usiku, na machozi yake yanafunika mashavu yake. Hamna ata mpenzi wake anaye mliwaza. Marafiki wake wote wamemsaliti. wamekuwa maadui wake.
Beth. It wepynge wepte in the niyt, and the teeris therof ben in `the chekis therof; `noon is of alle the dereworthe therof, that coumfortith it; alle the frendis therof forsoken it, and ben maad enemyes to it.
3 Baada ya umaskini na mateso, Yuda ameenda matekani. Anaishi miongoni mwa mataifa na hapati pumziko lolote. Wanao wakimbiza wamewapata katika upweke wake.
Gymel. Juda passide fro turment and multitude of seruage, it dwellide among hethene men, and foond no reste; alle the pursueris therof token it among angwischis.
4 Barabara za Sayuni zinaomboleza kwasababu hakuna anaye kuja kwenye sherehe iliyo andaliwa. Malango yake yote ni ukiwa. Makuhani wake wote wana sononeka. Mabikra wake wana uzuni na yeye mwenyewe yupo katika ugumu.
Deleth. The weies of Sion mourenen, for no men comen to the solempnytee; alle the yatis therof ben distried, the prestis therof weilen; the vergyns therof ben defoulid, and it is oppressid with bitternesse.
5 Maadui wake wamekuwa bwana zake; maadui wake wana fanikiwa. Yahweh amemuadhibu kwa dhambi zake nyingi. Watoto wake wadogo wanaenda matekani kwa maadui zake.
He. The enemyes therof ben maad in the heed, and the enemyes therof ben maad riche, for the Lord spak on it. For the multitude of wickidnessis therof the litle children therof ben led in to caitiftee, bifore the face of the troblere.
6 Uzuri umemwacha binti wa Sayuni. Watoto wa mfalme wamekuwa kama ayala ambaye haoni malisho, na wanaenda bila uwezo kwa wanao wakimbiza.
Vau. And al the fairnesse of the douyter of Syon yede out fro the douyter of Sion; the princes therof ben maad as rammes not fyndynge lesewis; and yeden forth withouten strengthe bifore the face of the suere.
7 Katika siku za mateso yake na kutokuwa na nyumba, Yerusalemu itakumbuka hazina zake za dhamani alizo kuwa nazo awali. Wakati watu wake walipo angukia mikononi mwa adui, hakuna aliye msaidia. Maadui waliwaona na kucheka maangamizo yake.
Zai. And Jerusalem bithouyte on the daies of hir affliccioun and of trespassyng, and on alle hir desirable thingis whiche it hadde fro elde daies; whanne the puple therof felle doun in the hond of enemyes, and noon helpere was; enemyes sien it, and scorneden the sabatis therof.
8 Yerusalemu ili tenda dhambi sana, hivyo basi, amedhalillika kama kitu kichafu. Wote walio mheshimu sasa wana mdharau kwa kuwa wameona uchi wake. Anasononeka na kujaribu kugeuka pembeni.
Heth. Jerusalem synnede a synne, therfor it was maad vnstidfast; alle that glorifieden it forsoken it, for thei sien the schenschipe therof; forsothe it weilide, and was turned a bak.
9 Amekuwa mchafu chini ya sketi yake. Hakuwaza hatima yake. Anguko lake lilikuwa baya. Hakukuwa na wakumliwaza. Alilia, “Angalia mateso yangu, Yahweh, kwa kuwa adui amekuwa mkuu sana.”
Theth. The filthis therof ben in the feet therof, and it hadde no mynde of hir ende; it was putte doun greetli, and hadde no coumfortour; Lord, se thou my turment, for the enemye is reisid.
10 Adui ameeka mkono wake kwenye hazina zetu za dhamani. Ameona mataifa yakiingia sehemu yake takatifu, japo uliamuru wasiingie katika sehemu yako ya kukusanyikia.
Joth. The enemye putte his hond to alle desirable thingis therof; for it siy hethene men entride in to thi seyntuarie, of which thou haddist comaundid, that thei schulden not entre in to thi chirche.
11 Watu wote wana sononeka wanapo tafuta mkate. Wametoa hazina zao za dhamani kwa ajili ya chakula cha kurejesha uhai wao. Tazama, Yahweh, ni kumbuke mimi, kwa kuwa nimekuwa sina faida.
Caph. Al the puple therof was weilinge and sekynge breed, thei yauen alle preciouse thingis for mete, to coumforte the soule; se thou, Lord, and biholde, for Y am maad vijl.
12 Sio kitu kwako, wote mnao pita? Angalia na uone kama kuna mtu mwenye uzuni kama uzuni ninao teswa nao, tangu Yahweh amenitesa mimi katika siku ya hasira yake kali.
Lameth. A! alle ye that passen bi the weie, perseyue, and se, if ony sorewe is as my sorewe; for he gaderide awei grapis fro me, as the Lord spak in the day of wraththe of his strong veniaunce.
13 Ni kutoka juu ndipo alipo tuma moto kwenye mifupa yangu na umenishinda. Ametanda nyavu kwa miguu yangu na kunigeuza. Amenifanya ukiwa na dhahifu.
Men. Fro an hiy he sente fier in my boonys, and tauyte me; he spredde a brood a net to my feet, he turnede me a bak; he settide me desolat, meddlid togidere al dai with mourenyng.
14 Nira ya makosa yangu imefungwa na mikono yake. Zimesokotwa na kuekwa shingoni mwangu. Amefanya uweza wangu kushindwa. Bwana amenikabidhi mikononi mwa, na siwezi kusimama.
Nun. The yok of my wickidnessis wakide in the hond of hym, tho ben foldid togidere, and put on my necke; my vertu is maad feble; the Lord yaf me in the hond, fro which Y schal not mowe rise.
15 Bwana ametupa pembeni wanaume wangu hodari walio niokoa. Ameitisha kusanyiko dhidi yangu kuponda wanaume wangu imara. Bwana amewakanyaga binti bikra wa Yuda kwenye chombo cha kusagia mvinyo.
Sameth. The Lord took awei alle my worschipful men fro the myddis of me; he clepide tyme ayens me, that he schulde al to-foule my chosun men; the Lord stampide a pressour to the virgyn, the douytir of Juda.
16 Kwa vitu hivi ninalia. Macho yangu, maji yanashuka chini ya macho yangu tangu mfariji aliye paswa kurejesha maisha yangu yuko mbali na mimi. Watoto wangu wamekuwa ukiwa kwasababu adui yangu ameshinda.
Ayn. Therfor Y am wepynge, and myn iye is ledynge doun watir; for a coumfortour, conuertynge my soule, is maad fer fro me; my sones ben maad lost, for the enemye hadde the maistrie.
17 Sayuni ametandaza mikono yake; hakuna wakuwa mliwaza. Yahweh ameamuru hao karibu na Yakobo wawemaadui wake. Yerusalemu ni kitu kichafu kwao.
Phe. Sion spredde a brood hise hondis, noon is that coumfortith it; the Lord sente ayenus Jacob enemyes therof, in the cumpas therof; Jerusalem is maad as defoulid with vncleene blood among hem.
18 Yahweh ni mwenye haki, kwa kuwa nimeasi dhidi ya amri zake. Sikia, ninyi watu, na muone uzuni wangu. Mabikra wangu na wanaume imara wameenda matekani.
Sade. The Lord is iust, for Y terride his mouth to wrathfulnesse; alle puplis, Y biseche, here ye, and se my sorewe; my virgyns and my yonge men yeden forth in to caitiftee.
19 Niliita marafiki zangu, lakini walikuwa na hila kwangu. Makuhani wangu na wazee waliangamia kwenye mji, walipo kuwa wanatafuta chakula cha kurejesha uhai wao.
Coth. I clepide my frendis, and thei disseyueden me; my prestis and myn elde men in the citee ben wastid; for thei souyten mete to hem silf, to coumforte hir lijf.
20 Tazama, Yahweh, kwa kuwa nipo kwenye ugumu; tumbo langu lina nguruma, moyo wangu umetibuka ndani yangu, kwa kuwa nimekuwa muasi sana. Nje, upanga umemliza mama, ndani ya nyumba kuna mauti tu.
Res. Se thou, Lord, for Y am troblid, my wombe is disturblid; myn herte is distried in my silf, for Y am ful of bittirnesse; swerd sleeth with outforth, and lijk deth is at hoome.
21 Wamesikia sononeko langu, lakini hakuna wakuni liwaza. Maadui zangu wote wamesikia shida zangu na wamefurahi umenifanyia hivi. Umeleta siku uliyo ahidi; sasa acha wawe kama mimi.
Syn. Thei herden, that Y make ynward weilyng, and noon is that coumfortith me; alle myn enemyes herden myn yuel, thei ben glad, for thou hast do; thou hast brouyt a dai of coumfort, and thei schulen be maad lijk me.
22 Acha uovu wote uje mbele zako. Shughulika nao kama ulivyo shughulika na mimi kwasababu ya makosa yangu yote. Masononeko yangu ni mengi na moyo umezimia.
Tau. Al the yuel of hem entre byfore thee, and gadere thou grapis awei fro hem, as thou hast gaderid grapis awei fro me; for my wickidnessis, for my weilyngis ben manye, and myn herte is mornynge.
