1 T he word that the Lord spoke concerning and against Babylon and concerning and against the land of the Chaldeans through Jeremiah the prophet:

Kanu waa eraygii ku saabsanaa Baabuloon iyo dalka reer Kaldayiin ee uu Rabbigu Nebi Yeremyaah faray.

2 D eclare it among the nations and publish it and set up a signal —publish and conceal it not; say, Babylon has been taken; Bel is put to shame, Merodach (Bel) is dismayed and broken down. images are put to shame, her idols are thrown down!

Quruumaha ka dhex sheega, oo naadiya, oo calan kor u taaga. Naadiya, oo ha qarinina, oo waxaad tidhaahdaan, Baabuloon waa la qabsaday, Beel waa la ceebeeyey, Merodag waa la burburiyey, taswiiraheedii waa la ceebeeyey, oo sanamyadeediina waa la burburiyey.

3 F or out of the north there has come up a nation against her which will make her land desolate, and none will dwell there. They will have fled, they will be gone—from man even to beast.

Waayo, quruun baa xagga woqooyi iyada kaga soo kacaysa, taasoo dalkeeda cidla ka dhigi doonta, oo ciduna ma dhex degganaan doonto, oo dad iyo duunyaba way carareen, wayna tageen.

4 I n those days and at that time, says the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together; they shall come up weeping as they come and seek the Lord their God.

Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Maalmahaas iyo wakhtigaas waxaa iman doona dadka Israa'iil iyo dadka Yahuudah oo wada socda oo ooyaya, oo Rabbiga Ilaahooda ahna way doondooni doonaan.

5 T hey shall ask the way to Zion, with their faces in that direction, saying, Come, let us join ourselves to the Lord in a perpetual covenant that shall not be forgotten.

Iyagu waxay haybin doonaan jidka Siyoon iyagoo wejigoodu halkan u soo jeedo, oo waxay odhan doonaan, Kaalaya, oo Rabbiga ugu dhowaada axdi weligiis ah oo aan la illoobi doonin.

6 M y people have been lost sheep; their shepherds have led them astray on mountains. They have gone from mountain to hill; they have forgotten their resting-place.

Dadkaygu wuxuu ahaan jiray sidii ido baadiyoobay, oo adhijirradoodii ayaa ka dhigay inay ambadaan. Waxay u celiyeen oo ku sii daayeen xagga buuraha, oo intay buur ilaa kur uga sii bexeen ayay xeradoodii illoobeen.

7 A ll who found them devoured them; and their adversaries said, We are not guilty, because they have sinned against the Lord, their true habitation of righteousness and justice, even the Lord, the hope of their fathers.

Ku alla kii iyaga helayba wuu cunay, oo cadaawayaashoodiina waxay yidhaahdeen, Annagu dembi kuma lihin, maxaa yeelay, iyagu waxay ku dembaabeen Rabbiga ah rugtii caddaaladda, kaasoo ah Rabbigii ahaa rajadii awowayaashood.

8 F lee out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans; and be as the he-goats before the flocks.

Baabuloon dhexdeeda ka carara, oo dalka reer Kaldayiin ka dhex baxa, oo noqda sida orgiyo adhi hor socda oo kale.

9 F or behold, I will raise and cause to come up against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country. They will equip and set themselves against her; from there she will be taken. Their arrows will be like an expert, mighty warrior and like his arrows—none will return in vain.

Waayo, bal ogaada, waxaan kicin doonaa oo aan Baabuloon ku soo dayn doonaa quruumo waaweyn oo is-urursaday oo xagga dalka woqooyi ka yimid, oo dagaal bay isugu soo diyaarin doonaan oo halkaasaa laga qaadi doonaa. Oo fallaadhahoodu waxay noqon doonaan sida fallaadhaha kan dagaalka aqoonta u leh oo aan middoodna waxtarla'aan ku soo noqonayn.

10 A nd Chaldea shall become plunder; all who plunder her shall be satisfied, says the Lord.

Oo Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Dalka Kalday wuxuu noqon doonaa wax la dhaco, oo kuwii isaga dhaca oo dhammuna way wada dhergi doonaan.

11 T hough you are glad, though you rejoice, O you who plunder My heritage, though you are wanton and skip about like a heifer at grass and neigh like strong stallions,

Kuwiinna dhaxalkayga dhacayow, in kastoo aad faraxdaan oo aad rayraysaan, iyo in kastoo aad u cayishaan sida qaalin lo'aad oo daaqsin fiican dhex joogta, amase aad danantaan sida fardo xoog badan oo kale,

12 Y our mother shall be put to great shame; she who bore you shall blush and be disgraced. Behold, she shall be at the rear of the nations —a wilderness, waste, and desert.

kolley hooyadiin si xun bay u ceeboobi doontaa, oo tii idin dhashayna way welweli doontaa, oo bal ogaada, iyadu waxay ahaan doontaa midda quruumaha ugu wada dambaysa, iyo cidla, iyo dhul engegan, iyo lamadegaan.

13 B ecause of the wrath of the Lord she shall not be inhabited but shall be wholly desolate; everyone who goes by Babylon shall be appalled and hiss and mock at all her wounds and plagues.

Cadhada Rabbiga daraaddeed ayaan ciduna u degi doonin, laakiinse kulligeed waxay ahaan doontaa baabba'. Mid kasta oo Baabuloon soo ag maraaba wuu yaabi doonaa, oo belaayooyinkeeda oo dhanna wuu ku foodhyi doonaa.

14 S et yourselves in array against Babylon round about, all you archers. Shoot at her! Spare not the arrows, for she has sinned against the Lord.

Kuwiinna qaansada xoota oo dhammow, Baabuloon hareereheeda dagaal isugu diyaariya. Iyada fallaadhihiinna ku gana, oo fallaadhna ha ka ceshanina, waayo, Rabbigay ku dembaabtay.

15 R aise the battle cry against her round about! She gives her hand and surrenders; her supports and battlements fall, her walls are thrown down. For this is the vengeance of the Lord: take vengeance on her; as she has done, do to her.

Hareeraha kaga qayliya, iyadu way isdhiibtay, aasaaskeedii wuu dhacay, derbiyadeediina waa la wada dumiyey, waayo, taasu waa aarsashadii Rabbiga. Iyada ka aarsada, oo sidii ay yeeli jirtay iyada ku sameeya.

16 E xterminate the sower from Babylon, and the one who handles the sickle in the time of harvest. For fear of the sword of the oppressor everyone shall return to his people, and everyone shall flee to his own land.

Baabuloon ka baabbi'iya kan wax beera iyo kan manjada qaada wakhtiga beergoosadka. Seefta dulmaysa cabsi ay ka qabaan aawadeed ayaa midkood kastaaba ku noqon doonaa dadkiisii, oo midkood kastaaba u carari doonaa dalkiisii.

17 I srael is a hunted and scattered sheep; the lions have chased him. First the king of Assyria devoured him, and now at last Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon has broken and gnawed his bones.

Dadka Israa'iil waa sida ido kala firidhsan oo kale. Libaaxyaa kala eryay. Markii hore waxaa baabbi'iyey boqorkii Ashuur, oo markii dambena Nebukadresar oo ah boqorka Baabuloon ayaa lafihiisii burbursaday.

18 T herefore thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will visit and punish the king of Babylon and his land, just as I visited and punished the king of Assyria.

Sidaas daraaddeed Rabbiga ciidammada oo ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu leeyahay, Bal ogaada, boqorka Baabuloon iyo dalkiisaba waan u ciqaabi doonaa sidaan boqorkii Ashuur u ciqaabay oo kale.

19 A nd I will bring Israel again to his fold and pasturage, and he will feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul will be satisfied upon the hills of Ephraim and Gilead.

Oo dadka Israa'iilna xeradooda ayaan ku soo celin doonaa, oo waxay daaqi doonaan Karmel iyo Baashaan, oo nafsaddooduna waxay ka dhergi doontaa buuraha Efrayim iyo Gilecaad dhexdiisa.

20 I n those days and at that time, says the Lord, the iniquity of Israel will be sought, but there will be none, and the sins of Judah, but none will be found, for I will pardon those whom I cause to remain as a remnant (the preserved ones who come forth after a long tribulation).

Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Maalmahaas iyo wakhtigaas waxaa la doondooni doonaa xumaantii dadka Israa'iil oo innaba ma ay jiri doonto, iyo dembiyadii dadka Yahuudah oo innaba lama heli doono, waayo, kuwii aan soo reebay waan saamixi doonaa.

21 G o up against the land of Merathaim, even against it and against the inhabitants of Pekod. Slay and utterly destroy them, says the Lord, and do according to all that I have commanded you.

Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Ku soo kaca dalka Meraatayim, iyo dadka Feqood degganba. Laaya oo wada baabbi'iya oo sidaan idinku amray oo dhan yeela.

22 T he cry and noise of battle is in the land, and of great destruction.

Dalka waxaa dhex yaal dagaal iyo halligaad weyn sanqadhood.

23 H ow the hammer of the whole earth is crushed and broken! How Babylon has become a horror of desolation among the nations!

Dubbihii dunida oo dhammu sidee buu u kala jabay oo uu u burburay! Baabuloon sidee bay quruumaha dhexdooda cidla ugu noqotay!

24 I set a trap for you, and you also were taken, O Babylon, and you did not know it; you were found and also caught because you have struggled and contended against the Lord.

Baabuloonay, dabin baan kuu dhigay, oo adna waa lagu qabtay adigoo aan iska ogayn. Waa lagu helay oo lagu qabtay, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigaad la dirirtay.

25 T he Lord has opened His armory and has brought forth the weapons of His indignation and wrath, for the Lord God of hosts has work to do in the land of the Chaldeans.

Rabbigu meesha hubkiisuu furay, oo wuxuu soo bixiyey hubkii dhirifkiisa, waayo, Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay shuqul uu ku dhex samayn doono dalka reer Kaldayiin.

26 C ome against her from every quarter and from the utmost border. Open her granaries and storehouses; pile up like heaps of rubbish. Burn and destroy her utterly; let nothing be left of her.

Quruuntaas kaga soo kaca darafyada dhulka ugu shisheeya, oo bakhaarradeeda fura, oo waxaad iyada u taalaysaan sida wax meel tuunsan oo kale, oo dhammaanteed baabbi'iya, oo innaba waxba ha ka reebina.

27 S lay all her bullocks (her choice youths, the strength of her army); let them go down to the slaughter! Woe to! For their day has come, the time of their visitation (their inspection and punishment).

Dibiyadeeda oo dhan wada gowraca, oo kulligood in la gowraco ha u dhaadheceen. Iyagaa iska hoogay, waayo, waxaa haatan yimid maalintoodii iyo wakhtigii ciqaabiddooda!

28 L isten! The voice of those who flee and escape out of the land of Babylon proclaiming in Zion the vengeance of the Lord our God, the vengeance for His temple.

Waxaa yeedhaya codkii kuwa dalka Baabuloon ka sii cararaya oo ka baxsanaya inay Siyoon ka naadiyaan aarsashadii Rabbiga Ilaahayaga ah, taasoo ah aarsashadii macbudkiisa.

29 C all together archers against Babylon, all those who bend the bow. Encamp against her round about; let none from there escape. Recompense her according to her deeds; just as she has done, do to her. For against the Lord, against the Holy One of Israel, has she been proudly defiant and presumptuous.

Waxaad Baabuloon ugu yeedhaan qaansoley badan, kuwiinna qaansada xoota oo dhammow. Hareereheeda ka dega, oo yaan innaba waxba ka baxsan. U abaalmariya sidii shuqulkeedu ahaa, oo wixii ay samayn jirtay oo dhan ku sameeya, waayo, waxay ku kibirtay Rabbiga ah Kan Quduuska ah ee reer binu Israa'iil.

30 T herefore shall her young men fall in her streets and squares, and all her soldiers shall be destroyed on that day, says the Lord.

Sidaas daraaddeed barbaarradeedu waxay ku dhex dhici doonaan jidadkeeda, oo raggeeda dagaalka oo dhanna maalintaasaa la wada baabbi'in doonaa, ayaa Rabbigu leeyahay.

31 B ehold, I am against you, O Babylon, says the Lord, the Lord of hosts, for your day has come, the time when I will visit and punish you.

Sayidka ah Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, kan kibirka badanow, anigu col baan kugu ahay, waayo, waxaa yimid maalintaadii taasoo ah wakhtigii aan ku ciqaabi lahaa.

32 A nd Pride (the arrogant one) shall stumble (totter) and fall, and none shall raise him up. And I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all who are round about him.

Oo kan kibirka badanuna wuu turunturoon doonaa, wuuna dhici doonaa, oo ciduna ma sara kicin doonto. Oo magaalooyinkiisana dab baan ku dayn doonaa, oo dabkaasuna wuxuu wada baabbi'in doonaa inta hareerihiisa ku wareegsan oo dhan.

33 T hus says the Lord of hosts: The children of Israel and the children of Judah are oppressed together; all who took them captive have held them fast; they refuse to let them go.

Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Dadka Israa'iil iyo dadka Yahuudahba waa la wada dulmay, oo kuwii iyaga maxaabiis ahaanta u kaxaystayna aad bay u xajistaan, wayna diidaan inay iska sii daayaan.

34 T heir Redeemer is strong; the Lord of hosts is His name. He will surely and thoroughly plead their case and defend their cause, that He may give rest to the earth, but unrest to the inhabitants of Babylon.

Bixiyahoodu waa xoog badan yahay, oo magiciisana waxaa la yidhaahdaa Rabbiga ciidammada. Oo isagu sida xaqiiqada ah dacwadooda wuu u qaadi doonaa, si uu dhulka u nasiyo, oo uu kuwa Baabuloon deggan u gariiriyo.

35 A sword upon the Chaldeans, says the Lord—upon the inhabitants of Babylon and upon her princes (rulers in civic matters) and upon her wise men (the astrologers and rulers in religious affairs)!

Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer Kaldayiin, iyo kuwa Baabuloon deggan, iyo amiirradeeda, iyo raggeeda xigmadda lehba seef baa u diyaar ah.

36 A sword upon the babbling liars (the diviners), that they may become fools! A sword upon her mighty warriors, that they may be dismayed and destroyed!

Oo faanlowyadana seef baa u diyaar ah, wayna nacasoobi doonaan, oo raggeeda xoogga badanna seef baa u diyaar ah, wayna argaggixi doonaan.

37 A sword upon their horses and upon their chariots and upon all the mixed foreign troops that are in the midst of her, that they may become women! A sword upon her treasures, that they may be plundered!

Oo seef baa u diyaar ah fardahooda, iyo gaadhifardoodyadooda, iyo dadka isku qasan oo dhexdeeda jooga oo dhan, oo waxay noqon doonaan sida naago oo kale. Oo khasnadaheedana seef baa u diyaar ah, oo iyana waa la dhici doonaa.

38 A sword and a drought upon her waters, that they may be dried up! For it is a land of images, and they are mad over idols (objects of terror in which they foolishly trust).

Biyaheedana abaar baa u diyaar ah, wayna wada gudhi doonaan, waayo, kanu waa dal ay taswiiro xardhanu ka buuxaan, oo dadkuna sanamyo bay ka daba waashaan.

39 T herefore wild beasts of the desert shall dwell with the jackals, and ostriches shall dwell there. And it shall never again be inhabited with people, even from generation to generation.

Sidaas daraaddeed dugaagga lamadegaanku waxay halkaas la degganaan doonaan yeyda, oo weliba gorayooyinka ayaa halkaas ku hoyan doona, oo weligeedna mar dambe lama degi doono, oo tan iyo ab ka abna dhexdeeda innaba laguma hoyan doono.

40 A s when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring cities, says the Lord, so no man shall dwell there; neither shall any son of man live there temporarily.

Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Sidii Ilaah u afgembiyey Sodom iyo Gomora iyo magaalooyinkii u dhowaaba ayaan ciduna halkaas u joogi doonin oo uusan innaba binu-aadmina halkaas degganaan doonin.

41 B ehold, a people is coming from the north; and a great nation and many kings are stirring from the uttermost parts of the earth.

Bal ogaada, dadyow baa xagga woqooyi ka iman doona, oo quruun weyn iyo boqorro badan ayaa dhulka darafyadiisa ka soo kici doona.

42 T hey lay hold of bow, lance, and spear; they are cruel and have no mercy or compassion. They sound like the roaring of the sea; they ride upon horses, every man equipped like a man for the battle against you, O Daughter of Babylon!

Oo waxay sitaan qaansooyin iyo warmo, oo waa calool adag yihiin, oo innaba naxariis ma leh. Codkoodana waxaa la moodaa sida bad guuxaysa oo kale, oo farday fuulaan. Baabuloonay, mid kastaaba wuxuu kuugu soo safan yahay sida nin dagaal diyaar u ah oo kale.

43 T he king of Babylon has heard the news about them, and his hands fall feeble and helpless; anguish has seized him, and pangs like that of a woman in childbirth.

Boqorkii Baabuloon ayaa warkoodii maqlay, markaasay gacmihiisii taag gabeen, oo cidhiidhi iyo xanuun baa isagii qabtay sida naag foolanaysa oo kale.

44 S ee, there comes up one like a lion from the jungles (the pride) of the Jordan against the strong habitation and into the permanent pasturage and sheepfold; for in a twinkling I will drive him from there. And I will appoint over him the one whom I choose. For who is like Me? And who will challenge Me and prosecute Me for this proceeding? And what shepherd can stand before Me and defy Me?

Bal eega, isagu wuxuu kibirka Webi Urdun uga soo dhex bixi doonaa sida libaax oo kale, oo wuxuu ku soo kici doonaa rugta xoogga badan, laakiinse anigu waxaan ka dhigi doonaa inay degdeg uga cararaan, oo waxaan madax uga dhigi doonaa kii la doortay, waayo, bal yaa ila mid ah? Oo bal yaa wakhtiga ii sheegi doona? Oo waa ayo adhijirka hortayda soo istaagi doona?

45 T herefore hear the plan of the Lord which He has made against Babylon, and His purposes which He has formed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely they shall be dragged away, even the little ones of the flock; surely He shall make their habitation desolate because of them and their fold amazed and appalled at their fate.

Haddaba bal maqla talada uu Rabbigu Baabuloon u goostay, iyo qasdiyadiisa uu dalka reer Kaldayiin u qasdiyey. Sida xaqiiqada ah waxaa iyaga kaxayn doona kuwa adhiga ugu yaryar. Sida xaqiiqada ah isagu hoygooda iyo iyagaba cidla buu ka dhigi doonaa.

46 A t the cry, Babylon has been taken! the earth shall tremble, and the cry shall be heard among the nations.

Dhulkii wuxuu la gariiraa sanqadhii qabsashadii Baabuloon, oo qayladeeda waxaa laga maqlaa quruumaha dhexdooda.
