Yeremiya 28
1 Chaka chomwecho mwezi wachisanu wa chaka chachinayi, poyambirira pa ulamuliro wa Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda, mneneri Hananiya mwana wa Azuri, amene amachokera ku Gibiyoni, anandiwuza ine mʼNyumba ya Yehova pamaso pa ansembe ndi anthu onse kuti,
And it happened in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah, the king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azur, the prophet from Gibeon, spoke to me, in the house of the Lord, in the sight of the priests and all the people, saying:
2 “Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli, akuti, ‘Ndidzathyola goli la mfumu ya ku Babuloni.
“Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 Pasanathe zaka ziwiri ndidzabweretsa pa malo ano ziwiya zonse za ku Nyumba ya Yehova zimene Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni anazichotsa pa malo pano ndi kupita nazo ku Babuloni.
There are still two years of days, and then I will cause to be carried back to this place all the vessels of the house of the Lord that Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, took from this place and carried away to Babylon.
4 Ndidzabweretsanso pa malo pano Yekoniya mwana wa Yehoyakimu mfumu ya Yuda pamodzi ndi akapolo ena onse ochokera ku Yuda amene anapita ku Babuloni,’ akutero Yehova, ‘chifukwa ndidzathyola goli la mfumu ya ku Babuloni.’”
And I will return to this place: Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, and all those taken captive from Judah, who were brought into Babylon, says the Lord. For I will crush the yoke of the king of Babylon.”
5 Pamenepo mneneri Yeremiya anayankha mneneri Hananiya pamaso pa ansembe ndi anthu onse amene anasonkhana mʼNyumba ya Yehova.
And Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Hananiah the prophet, before the eyes of the priests and before the eyes of all the people who were standing in the house of the Lord.
6 Anati, “Ameni! Yehova achitedi zomwezo! Yehova akwaniritse mawu amene waloserawo. Iye abweretsenso pa malo pano ziwiya za mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndi akapolo onse kuchokera ku Babuloni.
And Jeremiah the prophet said: “Amen, may the Lord accomplish this; may the Lord act upon your words, which you have prophesied, so that the vessels may be carried back to the house of the Lord, and so that all those taken captive may return from Babylon to this place.
7 Komabe, tamvera zimene nditi ndikuwuze iweyo pamodzi ndi anthu onse:
Yet truly, listen to this word, which I am speaking to your ears and to the ears of all the people.
8 Kunali aneneri kalelo, ine ndi iwe tisanabadwe. Iwowa analosera za nkhondo, mavuto ndi mliri kuti zidzagwera mayiko ambiri ndi maufumu amphamvu.
The prophets, who were before me and before you, from the beginning, have prophesied over many lands and over great kingdoms, about war, and about affliction, and about famine.
9 Koma mneneri amene amalosera zamtendere adzadziwika kuti ndi woona ndi kuti watumidwa ndi Yehova ngati zimene wanenera zachitikadi.”
The prophet who has predicted peace, if his word will occur, then the prophet will be known as one whom the Lord has sent in truth.”
10 Pamenepo mneneri Hananiya anachotsa goli mʼkhosi mwa mneneri Yeremiya nalithyola,
And Hananiah the prophet took the chain from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, and he broke it.
11 ndipo anawuza anthu onse kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Umu ndi mmene ndidzathyolere goli la Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni mʼkhosi mwa anthu a mitundu yonse pasanathe zaka ziwiri.’” Zitatero, mneneri Yeremiya anachoka.
And Hananiah spoke in the sight of all the people, saying: “Thus says the Lord: So shall I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, after two years of days, from the neck of all the people.”
12 Patapita nthawi pangʼono, mneneri Hananiya atathyola goli mʼkhosi mwa mneneri Yeremiya, Yehova anawuza Yeremiya kuti,
And Jeremiah the prophet went his own way. And after Hananiah the prophet had broken the chain from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying:
13 “Pita, kawuze mneneri Hananiya kuti, ‘Yehova akuti: Iwe wathyola goli lamtengo, mʼmalo mwake Ine ndidzayika goli lachitsulo.
“Go, and you shall say to Hananiah: Thus says the Lord: You have broken chains of wood, and so you will make for them chains of iron.
14 Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti: Ndidzayika goli lachitsulo mʼkhosi mwa anthu a mitundu yonseyi kuti atumikire Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni, ndipo iwo adzamutumikiradi. Ndipo ndamupatsanso ulamuliro ngakhale pa nyama zakuthengo.’”
For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I have placed a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, so that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon. And they shall serve him. Moreover, I have given to him even the beasts of the earth.”
15 Ndipo mneneri Yeremiya anawuza mneneri Hananiya kuti, “Tamvera, Hananiya! Iweyo Yehova sanakutume, koma iwe wanyenga anthuwa kuti akhulupirire zabodza.
And Jeremiah the prophet said to Hananiah the prophet: “Listen, Hananiah! The Lord has not sent you, and so you have caused this people to trust in a lie.
16 Nʼchifukwa chake Yehova akuti, ‘Ndatsala pangʼono kukuchotsa pa dziko lapansi. Iwe ufa chaka chino chisanathe, chifukwa wakhala ukulalikira zowukira Yehova.’”
For this reason, thus says the Lord: Behold, I will send you away from the face of the earth. This year, you shall die. For you have spoken against the Lord.”
17 Mʼmwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri wa chaka chomwecho, mneneri Hananiya anamwaliradi.
And Hananiah the prophet died in that year, in the seventh month.
