< Yeremiya 23 >

1 “Tsoka kwa abusa amene akuwononga ndi kubalalitsa nkhosa za pabusa panga!” akutero Yehova.
Woe to! [the] shepherds [who] are causing to stray and [who are] scattering [the] flock of pasture my [the] utterance of Yahweh.
2 Nʼchifukwa chake Yehova, Mulungu wa Israeli, ponena za abusa amene akuweta anthu anga akuti, “Mwabalalitsa ndi kumwaza nkhosa zanga. Komanso simunazisamale bwino. Choncho ndidzakulangani chifukwa cha machimo anu,” akutero Yehova.
Therefore thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel on the shepherds who are shepherding people my you you have scattered flock my and you have driven away them and not you have paid attention to them here I [am] about to visit on you [the] wickedness of deeds your [the] utterance of Yahweh.
3 “Pambuyo pake Ine mwini wakene ndidzasonkhanitsa nkhosa zanga zotsala, kuzichotsa ku mayiko onse kumene ndinazibalalitsira ndi kuzibweretsanso ku msipu wawo. Kumeneko zidzaswana ndi kuchulukana.
And I I will gather together [the] remnant of flock my from all the lands where I have banished them there and I will bring back them to pasture their and they will be fruitful and they will increase.
4 Ndidzazipatsa abusa amene adzaziweta, ndipo sizidzaopanso kapena kuchita mantha, ndipo palibe imene idzasochera,” akutero Yehova.
And I will raise up over them shepherds and they will shepherd them and not they will be afraid again and not they will be terrified and not they will be missing [the] utterance of Yahweh.
5 Yehova akuti, “Masiku akubwera, pamene ndidzaphukitsira Davide Nthambi yowongoka. Imeneyi ndiye mfumu imene idzalamulira mwanzeru, mwachilungamo ndi mosakondera mʼdziko.
Here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will raise up for David a branch righteous and he will reign a king and he will act prudently and he will do justice and righteousness in the land.
6 Pa masiku a ulamuliro wake Yuda adzapulumuka ndipo Israeli adzakhala pamtendere. Dzina limene adzamutcha ndi ili: Yehova ndiye Chilungamo Chathu.
In days his it will be saved Judah and Israel it will dwell to security and this [will be] name his which anyone will call him Yahweh - [is] righteousness our.
7 Choncho, masiku akubwera,” akutero Yehova, “pamene anthu sadzanenanso polumbira kuti, ‘Pali Yehova wamoyo, amene anatulutsa Aisraeli ku Igupto,’
Therefore here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and not people will say again [by] [the] life of Yahweh who he brought up [the] people of Israel from [the] land of Egypt.
8 koma adzanena kuti, ‘Pali Yehova wamoyo, amene anatulutsa zidzukulu za Israeli ku dziko lakumpoto ndi ku mayiko konse kumene anawabalalitsira.’ Ndipo iwo adzawabweretsa ku dziko lawolawo.”
That except [by] [the] life of Yahweh who he brought up and who he brought [the] offspring of [the] house of Israel from a land north-ward and from all the lands where I banished them there and they will dwell on own land their.
9 Kunena za aneneri awa: Mtima wanga wasweka; mʼnkhongono mwati zii. Ndakhala ngati munthu woledzera, ngati munthu amene wasokonezeka ndi vinyo, chifukwa cha Yehova ndi mawu ake opatulika.
Of the prophets it is broken heart my in inner being my they have become weak all bones my I have become like a person drunken and like a man [whom] it has passed over him wine because of Yahweh and because of [the] words of holiness his.
10 Dziko ladzaza ndi anthu achigololo; lili pansi pa matemberero. Dziko lasanduka chipululu ndipo msipu wawuma. Aneneri akuchita zoyipa ndipo akugwiritsa ntchito mphamvu zawo molakwika.
For adulterers it is full the land for because of a curse it has dried up the land they have become dry [the] pastures of [the] wilderness and it has become course [of life] their evil and strength their [is] not right.
11 “Mneneri ngakhale wansembe onse sapembedza Yehova. Amachita zoyipa ngakhale mʼnyumba yanga,” akutero Yehova.
For both prophet as well as priest they are polluted also in house my I have found wickedness their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
12 “Nʼchifukwa chake njira zawo zidzakhala zoterera; adzawapirikitsira ku mdima ndipo adzagwera kumeneko. Adzaona zosaona mʼnthawi ya chilango chawo,” akutero Yehova.
Therefore it will become path their for them like slippery places in the darkness they will be pushed down and they will fall on it for I will bring on them calamity [the] year of punishment their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
13 “Pakati pa aneneri a ku Samariya ndinaona chonyansa ichi: Ankanenera mʼdzina la Baala ndipo anasocheretsa anthu anga, Aisraeli.
And among [the] prophets of Samaria I saw offensiveness they prophesied by Baal and they caused to err people my Israel.
14 Ndipo pakati pa aneneri a ku Yerusalemu ndaonapo chinthu choopsa kwambiri: amachita chigololo, amanena bodza ndipo amalimbitsa mtima anthu ochita zoyipa. Choncho palibe amene amasiya zoyipa zake. Kwa Ine anthu onsewa ali ngati a ku Sodomu ndi Gomora.”
And among [the] prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible [thing] they have committed adultery and they have walked in falsehood and they have strengthened [the] hands of evil-doers to not they have turned away anyone from evil his they have become to me all of them like Sodom and inhabitants its like Gomorrah.
15 Choncho ponena za aneneriwa Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Ndidzawadyetsa zakudya zowawa ndi kuwamwetsa madzi a ndulu, chifukwa uchimo umene wafalikira mʼdziko lonse ndi wochokera kwa aneneri a ku Yerusalemuwa.”
Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts on the prophets here I [am] about to make eat them wormwood and I will make drink them water of poison for from with [the] prophets of Jerusalem it has gone out wicked behavior to all the land.
16 Koma Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Musamvere zimene aneneri amenewa akulosera kwa inu; zomwe aloserazo nʼzachabechabe. Iwo akungoyankhula za masomphenya a mʼmitima mwawo basi, osati zochokera kwa Yehova.
Thus he says Yahweh of hosts may not you listen to [the] words of the prophets who are prophesying to you [are] deluding they you [the] vision of own heart their they speak not from [the] mouth of Yahweh.
17 Iwo amapita ndi kumakawuza amene amandinyoza Ine kuti, ‘zinthu zidzakuyenderani bwino.’ Kwa iwo amene amawumirira kutsata zofuna za mitima yawo amakawawuza kuti, ‘palibe choyipa chimene chidzakugwereni.’”
[they are] saying Continually to [those who] despise me he says Yahweh peace it will belong to you and every [one who] walks in [the] stubbornness of own heart his they have said not it will come on you calamity.
18 Ine ndikuti, “Koma ndani wa iwo amene anakhalapo mu msonkhano wa Yehova? Ndani anaonapo kapena kumvapo mawu ake? Ndani mwa iwo analabadirako za mawu ake ndi kuwamvera?
For who? has he stood in [the] council of Yahweh so he may see and he may hear word his who? has he paid attention to (word his *Q(K)*) and has he listened?
19 Taonani ukali wa Yehova uli ngati chimphepo chamkuntho, inde ngati namondwe. Ndipo adzakantha mitu ya anthu oyipa.
There! - [the] storm of Yahweh rage it has gone out and a storm whirling on [the] head of wicked [people] it will whirl about.
20 Mkwiyo wa Yehova sudzaleka mpaka atachita zonse zimene anatsimikiza mu mtima mwake. Mudzazizindikira bwino zimenezi masiku akubwerawa.”
Not it will turn back [the] anger of Yahweh until has brought about he and until has carried out he [the] purposes of heart his at [the] end of the days you will understand it understanding.
21 Yehova anati, “Ine sindinatume aneneri amenewa, komabe iwo athamanga uku ndi uku kulalikira uthenga wawo; Ine sindinawayankhule, komabe iwo ananenera.
Not I sent the prophets and they they ran not I spoke to them and they they prophesied.
22 Iwo akanakhala pa msonkhano wanga ndiye kuti akanamayankhula mawu anga kwa anthu anga. Komanso bwenzi atawachotsa anthu anga mʼnjira zawo zoyipa kuti aleke machimo awo.”
And if they had stood in council my so they may cause to hear words my people my and they will turn back them from way their wicked and from [the] wickedness of deeds their.
23 Yehova akuti, “Kodi ndimakhala Mulungu pokhapokha ndikakhala pafupi, ndiye sindine Mulungu?
¿ A God from near [am] I [the] utterance of Yahweh and not a God from a distance.
24 Kodi wina angathe kubisala Ine osamuona?” “Kodi Ine sindili ponseponse kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi?” Akutero Yehova.
Or? will he hide himself anyone in hiding places and I not I will see him [the] utterance of Yahweh ¿ not the heavens and the earth [am] I filling [the] utterance of Yahweh.
25 “Ndamva zimene aneneri akuyankhula. Iwo amalosera zabodza mʼdzina langa nʼkumati, ‘Ndalota! Ndalota!’
I have heard [that] which they have said the prophets who prophesy in name my falsehood saying I have dreamed I have dreamed.
26 Kodi zabodzazi zidzakhalabe mʼmitima ya aneneriwa mpaka liti? Iwotu amalosera zonyenga za mʼmitima yawo.
Until when? ¿ [is] there in [the] heart of the prophets [who] prophesy falsehood and [the] prophets of [the] deceitfulness of own heart their.
27 Aneneriwa amakhulupirira kuti anthu anga adzayiwala mawu anga akamamva za maloto awo amene amayankhulana ngati mmene anachitira makolo awo popembedza Baala.
Who plan to make forget people my name my by dreams their which they recount each to neighbor his just as they forgot ancestors their name my for Baal.
28 Mneneri amene ali ndi maloto afotokoze malotowo. Koma iye amene ali ndi mawu anga alalikire mawuwo mokhulupirika. Kodi phesi lingafanane ndi chimanga?
The prophet whom [is] with him a dream let him recount [the] dream and whom word my [is] with him let him speak word my faithfulness what? [belongs] to the straw with the grain [the] utterance of Yahweh.
29 Kodi suja mawu anga amatentha ngati moto? Suja mawu anga amaphwanya monga ichitira nyundo kuphwanya miyala?” Akutero Yehova.
¿ Not thus [is] word my like fire [the] utterance of Yahweh and like a hammer [which] it shatters rock.
30 Yehova akuti, “Nʼchifukwa chake, Ine ndikudana nawo aneneri amene amaberana okhaokha mawu nʼkumati mawuwo ndi a Yehova.”
Therefore here I [am] on the prophets [the] utterance of Yahweh [who] steal words my each from with neighbor his.
31 Yehova akuti, “Inde, Ine ndikudana ndi aneneri amene amakonda kuyankhula zabodza nʼkumanena kuti, ‘Amenewa ndi mawu a Yehova.’”
Here I [am] on the prophets [the] utterance of Yahweh who take tongue their and they have uttered an utterance.
32 Yehova akuti, “Ndithudi, Ine ndikudana ndi aneneri a maloto abodzawa. Iwo amafotokoza malotowo nʼkumasocheretsa anthu anga ndi bodza lawo losachita nalo manyazilo, chonsecho Ine sindinawatume kapena kuwalamula. Iwo sathandiza anthuwa ndi pangʼono pomwe,” akutero Yehova.
Here I [am] on [those who] prophesy dreams of falsehood [the] utterance of Yahweh and they have recounted them and they caused to err people my by falsehoods their and by recklessness their and I not I sent them and not I appointed them and certainly not they benefit the people this [the] utterance of Yahweh.
33 Yehova anawuza Yeremiya kuti, “Anthu awa, kapena mneneri, kapenanso wansembe, akakufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi uthenga wolemetsa wa Yehova ukuti chiyani?’ uwawuze kuti, ‘Inuyo ndinu katundu wolemetsa Yehova, ndipo adzakutayani.’
And if it will ask you the people this or the prophet or a priest saying what? [is] [the] burden of Yahweh and you will say to them what? burden and I will abandon you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
34 Ngati mneneri kapena wansembe kapenanso munthu wina aliyense anena kuti, ‘Uthenga wolemetsa wa Yehova ndi uwu,’ Ine ndidzalanga munthu ameneyo pamodzi ndi banja lake.
And the prophet and the priest and the people who he will say [the] burden of Yahweh and I will visit [judgment] on the person that and on house his.
35 Koma chimene aliyense wa inu azifunsa kwa mnzake kapena mʼbale wake ndi ichi: ‘Kodi Yehova wayankha chiyani?’ kapena ‘Yehova wayankhula chiyani?’
Thus you will say each to neighbor his and each to brother his what? did he answer Yahweh and what? did he say Yahweh.
36 Koma musanenenso kuti ‘nawu uthenga wolemetsa wa Yehova,’ chifukwa mawu a munthu aliyense ndiwo uthenga wa iye mwini, kotero kuti inu mumakhotetsa mawu a Mulungu wamoyo, Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wathu.
And [the] burden of Yahweh not you will remember again for the burden it is for a person own word his and you change [the] words of God living Yahweh of hosts God our.
37 Tsono iwe Yeremiya udzamufunse mneneri kuti, ‘Kodi Yehova wakuyankha chiyani?’ kapena, ‘Kodi Yehova wayankhula chiyani?’
Thus you will say to the prophet what? did he answer you Yahweh and what? did he say Yahweh.
38 Ngati mudzanena kuti, ‘Nawu uthenga wolemetsa wa Yehova,’ ndiye tsono Yehova akuti, ‘Popeza mwagwiritsa ntchito mawu akuti: Nawu uthenga wolemetsa wa Yehova, mawu amene ndinakuletsani kuti musawatchule,
And if [the] burden of Yahweh you will say therefore thus he says Yahweh because have spoken you the word this [the] burden of Yahweh and I sent to you saying not you must say [the] burden of Yahweh.
39 ndiye kuti Ine ndidzakunyamulani ngati katundu nʼkukuponyani kutali. Ndidzakuchotsani pamaso panga, inuyo pamodzi ndi mzinda umene ndinakupatsani inu ndi makolo anu.
Therefore here [am] I and I will surely you lift up and I will abandon you and the city which I gave to you and to ancestors your from on face my.
40 Ndidzakunyozani mpaka muyaya. Ndidzakuchititsani manyazi osayiwalika.’”
And I will put on you a reproach of perpetuity and shame of perpetuity which not it will be forgotten.
