Yeremiya 32
1 Yehova anayankhula ndi Yeremiya mʼchaka chakhumi cha Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda, chimene chinalinso chaka cha 18 cha ulamuliro wa Nebukadinezara.
The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord in the tenth year of Sedecias king of Juda: the same is eighteenth year of Nabuchodonosor.
2 Pa nthawi imeneyi nʼkuti ankhondo a mfumu ya ku Babuloni atazinga Yerusalemu, ndipo mneneri Yeremiya ndiye anamutsekera mʼbwalo la alonda mʼnyumba yaufumu ya ku Yuda.
At that time the army of the king o Babylon besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremias the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the house of the king of Juda.
3 Tsono Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda nʼkuti itamutsekera mʼmenemo, ndipo inati, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukulosera motero? Iwe ukunena kuti, ‘Yehova akuti: Ndidzapereka mzinda uno kwa mfumu ya ku Babuloni, ndipo idzawulanda.
For Sedecias king of Juda had shut him up, saying: Why dost thou prophesy, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it?
4 Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda sidzapulumuka mʼmanja mwa Ababuloni, koma idzaperekedwa kwa mfumu ya ku Babuloni. Adzayankhula naye ndi kuonana naye maso ndi maso.
And Sedecias king of Juda shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans: but he shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon: and he shall speak to him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall see his eyes.
5 Zedekiya adzatengedwa kupita naye ku Babuloni, kumene adzakhale mpaka nditamukhawulitsa, akutero Yehova. Ngakhale iye adzamenyane ndi Babuloni, koma sadzapambana.’”
And he shall lead Sedecias to Babylon: and he shall be there till I visit him, saith the Lord. But if you will fight against the Chaldeans, you shall have no success.
6 Yeremiya anati, “Yehova wandiwuza kuti:
And Jeremias said: The word of the Lord came to me, saying:
7 Taonani, Hanameli mwana wa Salumu, amalume ako akubwera ndipo adzakuwuza kuti, ‘Gula munda wanga wa ku Anatoti, chifukwa iwe ndiwe mʼbale wanga ndipo ndiwe woyenera kuwuwombola.’”
Behold, Hanameel the son of Sellum thy cousin shall come to thee, saying: Buy thee my field, which is in Anathoth, for it is thy right to buy it, being akin.
8 Ndipo monga momwe Yehova ananenera, Hanameli, msuweni wanga anabweradi ku bwalo la alonda ndipo anati, “Gula munda wanga wa ku Anatoti mʼdziko la Benjamini. Popeza ndiwe woyenera kuwugula ndi kukhala wako, gula munda umenewu kuti ukhale wako.” “Ine ndinadziwa kuti amenewa anali mawu a Yehova aja;
And Hanameel my uncle’s son cam to me, according to the word of the to the entry of the prison, and said me: Buy my held, which is in in the land of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thins, and thou art next of kin to possess it. And I understood this was the word of the Lord.
9 choncho ndinagula munda wa ku Anatoti kwa Hanameli msuweni wanga, ndipo ndinamupatsa masekeli asiliva 17.
And I bought the held of my uncle’s son, that is in Anathoth: and I weighed him the money, seven staters, and ten pieces of silver.
10 Ndinasayina panganolo ndikulimata pamaso pa mboni, kenaka ndinayeza ndalama zasilivazo pa sikelo.”
And I wrote it in a book and sealed it, and took witnesses: and I weighed him the money in the balances.
11 Pambuyo pake ndinatenga makalata anga a pangano, imodzi yomatidwa mʼmene munali malamulo onse a panganolo ndi ina yosamatidwa.
And I took the deed of the purchase that was sealed, and the stipulations, and the ratifications with the seals that were on the outside.
12 Ndinapereka makalatawo kwa Baruki mwana wa Neriya, mdzukulu wa Maseya pamaso pa Hanameli msuweni wanga, pamaso pa mboni zimene zinasayina panganoli ndiponso pamaso pa Ayuda onse okhala mʼbwalo la alonda.
And I gave the deed of the purchase to Baruch the son of Neri the son of Maasias in the sight of Hanameel my uncle’s son, in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, and before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.
13 “Ndinamulangiza Baruki pamaso pa onsewo kuti,
And I charged Baruch before them, saying:
14 ‘Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti: Tenga makalata awa a umboni wapangano, iyi yokhala ndi chizindikiro ndi yopanda chizindikiro, uwasunge mʼmbiya kuti akhale nthawi yayitali.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Take these writings, this deed of the purchase that is sealed up, and this deed that is open: and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.
15 Pakuti Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti: Anthu adzagulanso nyumba, minda ndi mitengo yamphesa mʼdziko lino.’”
For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Houses, and fields, and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.
16 Nditamupatsa makalata a panganowa Baruki mwana wa Neriya, ndinapemphera kwa Yehova:
And after I had delivered the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neri, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
17 “Aa, inu Ambuye Yehova, munalenga dziko lakumwamba ndi dziko lapansi. Munazilenga ndi dzanja lanu lamphamvu ndipo palibe chokulakani.
Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, behold thou hast made heaven and earth by thy great power, and thy stretched out arm: no word shall be hard to thee:
18 Mumaonetsa chikondi chanu kwa anthu osawerengeka koma mumalanga ana chifukwa cha machimo a makolo awo. Inu ndinu Mulungu Wamkulu ndi Wamphamvu. Dzina lanu ndinu Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
Thou shewest mercy unto thousands, and returnest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: O most mighty, great, and powerful, the Lord of hosts is thy name.
19 Zolinga zanu ndi zazikulu ndipo zochita zanu ndi zamphamvu. Maso anu amaona zonse zimene anthu amachita. Mumapereka mphotho kwa munthu aliyense molingana ndi makhalidwe ake ndi ntchito zake.
Great in counsel and incomprehensible in thought: whose eyes are open upon all the ways of the children of Adam, to render unto every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his devices.
20 Inu munachita zizindikiro zozizwitsa ku Igupto, ndipo mwakhala mukuzichita mpaka lero, pakati pa Aisraeli ndiponso pakati pa anthu onse. Choncho mwadzitchukitsa mpaka lero lino.
Who hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt even until this day, and in Israel, and amongst men, and hast made thee a name as at this day.
21 Munatulutsa Aisraeli mʼdziko la Igupto ndi dzanja lanu lamphamvu pochita zizindikiro zozizwitsa ndi zodabwitsa zimene zinaopseza adani anu.
And hast brought forth thy people Israel, out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and a stretched out arm, and with great terror.
22 Munawapatsa dziko lino limene munalonjeza mwalumbiro kulipereka kwa makolo awo, dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi.
And best given them this land which thou didst swear to their fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey.
23 Iwo analowa nʼkulitenga kukhala lawo, koma sanamvere Inu kapena kutsatira lamulo lanu; ndipo sanachite zomwe munawalamula. Choncho inu mwawagwetsera masautso onsewa.”
And they came in, and possessed it: but they obeyed not thy voice, and they walked not in thy law: and they did not any of those things that thou didst command them to do, and all these evils are come upon them.
24 “Onani momwe adani azingira ndi mitumbira yankhondo mzindawu kuti awulande ndipo akuwuthira nkhondo. Chifukwa cha lupanga, njala ndi mliri. Mzindawu udzaperekedwa kwa Ababuloni anthu atafowoka ndi nkhondo, njala ndi mliri. Zimene munkanena zija zachitikadi monga mukuzionera tsopano.
Behold works are built up against the city to take it: and the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans, who fight against it, by the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken, is all come to pass, as thou thyself seest.
25 Ngakhale mzindawu udzaperekedwa kwa Ababuloni, komabe Inu Ambuye Yehova, munandiwuza kuti, ‘Gula munda ndi siliva ndipo upereke ndalamazo pali mboni.’”
And sayest thou to me, O Lord God: Buy a field for money, and take witnesses, whereas the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans?
26 Tsono Yehova anawuza Yeremiya kuti,
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:
27 “Taonani, Ine ndine Yehova, Mulungu wa anthu onse. Kodi chilipo chinthu choti Ine nʼkundikanika?
Behold I am the Lord the God of all flesh: shall any thing be hard for me?
28 Nʼchifukwa chake ine Yehova ndikuti: Ndidzawupereka mzinda uno kwa Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni, amene adzawulanda.
Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans, and into the hands of the king of Babylon, and they shall take it.
29 Ndipo Ababuloni amene akuwuthira nkhondo mzinda uno adzalowa ndi kuwutentha; adzatentha ndi kugwetsa nyumba zimene pa denga pake anthu ankandipsetsa mtima pofukiza lubani kwa Baala ndi popereka chopereka cha chakumwa kwa milungu ina.
And the Chaldeans that fight against this city, shall come and set it on fire, and burn it, with the houses upon whose roofs they offered sacrifice to Baal, and poured out drink offerings to strange gods, to provoke me to wrath.
30 “Aisraeli ndi Ayuda akhala akuchita zoyipa zokhazokha pamaso panga kuyambira ubwana wawo. Kunena zoona Aisraeli akumandikwiyitsa ndi ntchito zawo zoyipa, akutero Yehova.
For the children of Israel, and the children of Juda, have continually done evil in my eyes from their youth: the children of Israel who even till now provoke me with the work of their hands, saith the Lord.
31 Kuyambira tsiku limene mzindawu unamangidwa mpaka lero, wakhala ukuwutsa mkwiyo wanga ndi ukali wanga. Nʼchifukwa chake ndiyenera kuwuchotsa pamaso panga.
For this city hath been to me a provocation and indignation from the day that they built it, until this day, in which it shall be taken out of my sight.
32 Aisraeli ndi Ayuda, anthu a ku Yuda ndi a ku Yerusalemu, mafumu awo, nduna zawo, ansembe ndi aneneri awo anandikwiyitsa ndi ntchito zawo zoyipa.
Because of all the evil of the children of Israel, and of the children of Juda, which they have done, provoking me to wrath, they and their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets, the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
33 Anandifulatira ndipo ngakhale ndinakhala ndikuwaphunzitsa kawirikawiri, sanamve kapena kuphunzirapo kanthu.
And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces: when I taught them early in the morning, and instructed them, and they would not hearken to receive instruction.
34 Iwo anayika mafano awo onyansa mʼnyumba imene imadziwika ndi dzina langa ndipo anayipitsa.
And they have set their idols in the house, in which my name is called upon, to defile it.
35 Anamanga malo opembedzerapo Baala mʼChigwa cha Hinomu kuti aziperekapo ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi ngati nsembe kwa Moleki. Ine sindinawalamulire kutero, ndipo sindinaganizepo nʼkomwe kuti iwo angachite chinthu chonyansa chotero, ndi kuchimwitsa anthu a ku Yuda.
And they have built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Ennom, to consecrate their sons and their daughters to Moloch: which I commanded them not, neither entered it into my heart, that they should do this abomination, and cause Juda to sin.
36 “Anthu ponena za mzindawu akuti udzaperekedwa kwa mfumu ya ku Babuloni mwa nkhondo, njala ndi mliri, koma Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti,
And now, therefore, thus saith the Lord the God of Israel to this city, whereof you say that it shall be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:
37 Ine ndidzawasonkhanitsadi anthuwa kuchokera ku mayiko onse kumene ndinawapirikitsira ndili wokwiya ndi waukali kwambiri. Ndidzabwera nawo ku malo ano ndipo ndidzawalola kukhala mwamtendere.
Behold I will gather them together out of all the lands to which I have cast them out in my anger, and in my wrath, and in my great indignation: and I will bring them again into this place, and will cause them to dwell securely.
38 Iwo adzakhala anthu anga, ndipo Ine ndidzakhala Mulungu wawo.
And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
39 Ndidzawapatsa mtima umodzi ndi khalidwe limodzi kotero kuti azidzandiopa nthawi zonse ndipo iwo pamodzi ndi zidzukulu zawo zinthu zidzawayendera bwino.
And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me all days: and that it may be well with them, and with their children after them.
40 Ndidzachita nawo pangano losatha: sindidzaleka kuwachitira zabwino, ndipo ndidzawapatsa mtima woti azidzandiopa, kuti asadzandisiyenso.
And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, and will not cease to do them good: and I will give my fear in their heart, that they may not revolt from me.
41 Ndidzakondwera powachitira zabwino, ndipo ndidzawakhazikitsa ndithu mʼdziko lino ndi mtima wanga wonse ndi moyo wanga wonse.
And I will rejoice over them, when I shall do them good: and I will plant them in this land in truth, with my whole heart, and with all my soul.
42 “Yehova akuti: Monga momwe ndinagwetsera masautso aakulu onsewa pa anthuwa, momwemonso ndidzawapatsa zinthu zonse zabwino zimene ndinawalonjeza.
For thus saith the Lord: As I have brought upon this people all this great evil: so will I bring upon them all the good that I now speak to them.
43 Adzagulanso minda mʼdziko muno, limene inu mukuti, ‘Ndi dziko losiyidwa, lopanda anthu kapena nyama, pakuti linaperekedwa kwa Ababuloni.’
And fields shall be purchased in this land: whereof you say that it is desolate, because there remaineth neither man nor beast, and it is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.
44 Adzagula minda ndi ndalama zasiliva, ndipo achita pangano, ndi kumata pamaso pa mboni. Izi zidzachitika mʼdziko la Benjamini, ku malo ozungulira Yerusalemu, mʼmizinda ya Yuda, mʼmizinda ya ku mapiri, mʼmizinda ya kuchigwa ndi yakummwera ku Negevi. Zoona, ndidzabwezera ufulu wawo, akutero Yehova.”
Fields shall be bought for money, and deeds shall be written, and sealed, and witnesses shall be taken, in the land of Benjamin, and round about Jerusalem, in the cities of Juda, and in the cities on the mountains, and in the cities of the plains, and in the cities that are towards the south: for I will bring their captivity, saith the Lord.
