Yeremiya 51
1 Yehova akuti, “Taonani, ndidzadzutsa mphepo yowononga kuti iwononge Babuloni pamodzi ndi anthu a ku Lebi Kamai.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela ngizavusela iBhabhiloni lalabo abahlala enhliziyweni yalabo abangivukelayo umoya ochithayo.
2 Ndidzatuma alendo ku Babuloni kudzamupeta ndi kuwononga dziko lake kotheratu. Iwo adzalimbana naye ku mbali zonse pa tsiku la masautso ake.
Ngithume eBhabhiloni abelayo, abazakuyela, bathulule ilizwe layo, ngoba bazamelana layo bevela inhlangothi zonke ngosuku lobubi.
3 Okoka uta musawalekerere kapena wonyadira chovala chawo chankhondo. Musawasiye anyamata ake kuti akhale ndi moyo; koma muwononge ankhondo ake kotheratu.
Kakuthi otshokayo agobise idandili lakhe emelene loligobisayo, njalo emelene loziphakamisayo ebhatshini lakhe lensimbi; njalo lingawayekeli amajaha ayo, lilitshabalalise ibutho layo lonke.
4 Adzavulazidwa ndi kufera mʼdziko la Babuloni lomwelo ndi mʼmisewu yawo yomwe.
Ngokunjalo ababuleweyo bazakuwa elizweni lamaKhaladiya, labagwazwe ezitaladeni zayo.
5 Pakuti Yuda ndi Israeli sanasiyidwe ngati amasiye ndi Mulungu wawo, Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, koma ngakhale dziko la Babuloni ndi lodzaza ndi machimo pamaso pa Woyerayo wa Israeli.
Ngoba uIsrayeli kayikutshiywa, loJuda nguNkulunkulu wabo, yiNkosi yamabandla, lanxa ilizwe labo ligcwele icala koNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
6 “Thawaniko ku Babuloni! Aliyense apulumutse moyo wake! Musawonongeke naye pamodzi chifukwa cha machimo ake. Imeneyi ndi nthawi yoti Yehova amulange; Yehova adzamulipsira.
Balekani liphume phakathi kweBhabhiloni, likhulule ngulowo lalowo umphefumulo wakhe; lingaqunywa esiphambekweni sayo; ngoba lesi yisikhathi sempindiselo yeNkosi, ophindisela impindiselo kuyo.
7 Babuloni anali ngati chikho cha golide mʼdzanja la Yehova; kuti aledzeretse dziko lonse lapansi. Mitundu yambiri ya anthu inamwa vinyo wake; nʼchifukwa chake tsopano inachita misala.
IBhabhiloni yayiyinkezo yegolide esandleni seNkosi, eyayidakisa umhlaba wonke; izizwe zanatha okwewayini layo; ngenxa yalokho izizwe zahlanya.
8 Babuloni wagwa mwadzidzidzi ndi kusweka. Mulireni! Mfunireni mankhwala opha ululu wake; mwina iye nʼkuchira.”
IBhabhiloni yahle yawa, yephuka; qhinqani isililo ngayo, lithathele ubuhlungu bayo ibhalisamu, mhlawumbe ingelatshwa.
9 Ena anati, “‘Ife tinayesa kumupatsa mankhwala Babuloni, koma sanachire; tiyeni timusiye ndipo aliyense apite ku dziko la kwawo, pakuti mlandu wake wafika mpaka mlengalenga, wafika mpaka kumwamba.’
Besingayelapha iBhabhiloni, kodwa kayelaphekanga; itshiyeni, asihambeni ngulowo lalowo aye elizweni lakhe; ngoba isigwebo sayo sifinyelele emazulwini, siphakanyisiwe kwaze kwafika esibhakabhakeni.
10 “‘Yehova waonetsa poyera kuti ndife osalakwa; tiyeni tilengeze mu Ziyoni zimene Yehova Mulungu wathu wachita.’
INkosi ikhuphe ukulunga kwethu; wozani, silandise eZiyoni umsebenzi weNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu.
11 “Yehova wadzutsa mitima ya mafumu a Amedi, popeza cholinga chake ndi kuwononga Babuloni. Motero adzalipsira Ababuloni chifukwa chowononga Nyumba yake. Ndiye Yehova akuti, ‘Nolani mivi, tengani zishango.’
Lolani imitshoko, liqoqe izihlangu; iNkosi ivusile umoya wamakhosi amaMede; ngoba icebo layo limelene leBhabhiloni ukuyichitha; ngoba lokho kuyimpindiselo yeNkosi, impindiselo yethempeli layo.
12 Kwezani mbendera yankhondo kuti muwononge malinga a Babuloni! Limbitsani oteteza, ikani alonda pa malo awo, konzekerani kulalira. Pakuti Yehova watsimikiza ndipo adzachitadi zomwe ananena za anthu a ku Babuloni.
Phakamisani isiboniso phezu kwemiduli yeBhabhiloni, liqinise ukulinda, libeke abalindi, lilungise abacathami, ngoba iNkosi isikucebile, futhi izakwenza lokho ekukhulume ngabahlali beBhabhiloni.
13 Inu muli ndi mitsinje yambiri ndi chuma chambiri. Koma chimaliziro chanu chafika, moyo wanu watha.
Wena ohlala emanzini amanengi, owande ngamagugu, ukuphela kwakho sekufikile, isilinganiso senzuzo yakho embi.
14 Yehova Wamphamvuzonse analumbira pali Iye mwini kuti: Ndidzakutumizira adani ochuluka ngati dzombe, kuti adzakuthire nkhondo ndipo adzafuwula kuonetsa kuti apambana.
INkosi yamabandla ifungile ngomphefumulo wayo yathi: Isibili ngizakugcwalisa ngabantu njengamacimbi, njalo bazahlabelela umkhosi ngawe.
15 “Yehova analenga dziko lapansi ndi mphamvu zake; Iye anapanga dziko lonse ndi nzeru zake ndipo anayala thambo mwaluso lake.
Wenza umhlaba ngamandla akhe, walimisa ilizwe ngenhlakanipho yakhe, langokuqedisisa kwakhe wendlala amazulu.
16 Iye akayankhula, kumamveka mkokomo wamadzi akumwamba. Iyeyo amabweretsa mitambo kuchokera ku malekezero a dziko lapansi. Amabweretsa mphenzi pamodzi ndi mvula ndi kutulutsa mphepo yamkuntho kumalo kumene amasungira.
Lapho ekhupha ilizwi lakhe, kulokuhlokoma kwamanzi amanengi emazulwini, ukhuphula inkungu ivela emkhawulweni womhlaba, enze imibane kanye lezulu, akhuphe umoya eziphaleni zakhe.
17 “Anthu onse ndi opusa ndiponso opanda nzeru; mmisiri aliyense wosula golide akuchita manyazi ndi mafano ake. Mafano akewo ndi abodza; alibe moyo mʼkati mwawo.
Wonke umuntu uyisiphukuphuku kalalwazi; wonke umkhandi wegolide uyangiswa yisithombe esibaziweyo, ngoba isithombe sakhe esibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa siyinkohliso, njalo kakulamoya kuzo.
18 Mafanowo ndi achabechabe, zinthu zosekedwa nazo. Pamene anthuwo azidzaweruzidwa mafanowo adzawonongedwa.
Ziyize, umsebenzi wezinkohliso; ngesikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwazo zizabhubha.
19 Koma Yehova amene ndi Cholowa cha Yakobo sali ngati mafanowo. Iyeyu ndi Mlengi wa zinthu zonse, kuphatikizapo mtundu umene anawusankha kuti ukhale anthu ake. Dzina lake ndi Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
Isabelo sikaJakobe kasinjengazo; ngoba yena nguye umbumbi wakho konke, loIsrayeli uyintonga yelifa lakhe; iNkosi yamabandla libizo lakhe.
20 “Iwe Babuloni ndi ndodo yanga, chida changa chankhondo. Ndi iwe ndimaphwanya mitundu ya anthu, ndi iwe ndimawononga maufumu,
Wena uyinduku yami yempi, izikhali zempi; ngoba ngawe ngizaphahlaza izizwe, langawe ngichithe imibuso,
21 ndi iwe ndimaphwanya kavalo ndi wokwerapo, ndi iwe ndimaphwanya galeta ndi woyendetsa wake.
langawe ngiphahlaze ibhiza lomgadi walo, langawe ngiphahlaze inqola lomkhweli wayo,
22 Ndi iwe ndimaphwanya mwamuna ndi mkazi, ndi iwe ndimaphwanya nkhalamba ndi wachinyamata, ndi iwe ndimaphwanya mnyamata ndi namwali.
langawe ngiphahlaze indoda lowesifazana, langawe ngiphahlaze ixhegu lomutsha, langawe ngiphahlaze ijaha lentombi,
23 Ndi iwe ndimaphwanya mʼbusa ndi ziweto, ndi iwe ndimaphwanya mlimi ndi ngʼombe, ndi iwe ndimaphwanya abwanamkubwa ndi atsogoleri a ankhondo.
langawe ngiphahlaze umelusi lomhlambi wakhe, langawe ngiphahlaze umlimi lesipani sakhe, langawe ngiphahlaze ababusi lezinduna.
24 “Inu mukuona ndidzalanga Babuloni ndi onse amene amakhala mʼdziko la Babuloni chifukwa cha zolakwa zonse anachita ku Ziyoni,” akutero Yehova.
Njalo ngizayiphindisela iBhabhiloni labo bonke abahlali beKhaladiya konke okubi kwabo abakwenzileyo eZiyoni emehlweni enu, itsho iNkosi.
25 “Taonani, ndikukuzenga mlandu, iwe phiri lowononga, amene umawononga dziko lonse lapansi,” akutero Yehova. “Ndidzatambalitsa dzanja langa pofuna kukulanga, kukugubuduzira pansi kuchokera pa matanthwe ako, ndi kukusandutsa kukhala phiri lopserera.
Khangela, ngimelana lawe, wena ntaba echithayo, itsho iNkosi, echitha umhlaba wonke; ngizakwelulela isandla sami kuwe, ngikugiqe usuke emadwaleni, ngikwenze ube yintaba yokutshiswa.
26 Palibe ngakhale ndi mwala wako umodzi umene anthu adzawutenga kuti awugwiritse ntchito kumangira nyumba, chifukwa iwe udzakhala chipululu mpaka muyaya,” akutero Yehova.
Njalo kabayikuthatha kuwe ilitshe libe ngelengonsi, lelitshe libe ngelezisekelo; ngoba uzakuba ngamanxiwa aphakade, itsho iNkosi.
27 “Kwezani mbendera ya nkhondo mʼdziko! Lizani lipenga pakati pa mitundu ya anthu! Konzekeretsani mitundu ya anthu kuti ikamuthire nkhondo; itanani maufumu awa: Ararati, Mini ndi Asikenazi kuti adzamuthire nkhondo. Ikani mtsogoleri wankhondo kuti amenyane naye; tumizani akavalo ochuluka ngati magulu a dzombe.
Phakamisani isiboniso elizweni, livuthele uphondo phakathi kwezizwe, lilungise izizwe ukumelana layo, liyibizele ndawonye imibuso yeArarathi, iMini, leAshikenazi; libeke umlawuli webutho emelene layo, lenyuse amabhiza njengentethe ezimaxhakaxhaka.
28 Konzekeretsani mitundu ya anthu. Amenewa ndiwo mafumu a Amedi, abwanamkubwa awo, atsogoleri a ankhondo, ndiponso ankhondo a mayiko amene amawalamulira, kuti idzathire nkhondo Babuloni.
Lungisani izizwe ukumelana layo, amakhosi amaMede, induna zayo, lababusi bayo bonke, lelizwe lonke lombuso wayo.
29 Dziko likunjenjemera ndi kunthunthumira, chifukwa zidzachitikadi zimene Yehova wakonzera Babuloni; kusakaza dziko la Babuloni kuti musapezeke wokhalamo.
Lelizwe lizazamazama libe lobuhlungu, ngoba ngalinye lamacebo eNkosi lima limelene leBhabhiloni, ukwenza ilizwe leBhabhiloni libe yincithakalo engelamhlali.
30 Ankhondo a ku Babuloni aleka kuchita nkhondo; iwo angokhala mʼmalinga awo. Mphamvu zawo zatheratu; ndipo akhala ngati akazi. Malo ake wokhala atenthedwa; mipiringidzo ya zipata zake yathyoka.
Amaqhawe eBhabhiloni ayekele ukulwa, ahlala ezinqabeni, amandla awo aphelile, sebengabesifazana; bathungele indawo zayo zokuhlala, imigoqo yayo yephukile.
31 Othamanga akungopezanapezana, amithenga akungotsatanatsatana kudzawuza mfumu ya ku Babuloni kuti alande mzinda wake wonse.
Isigijimi sizagijima ukuhlangana lesigijimi, lombiki ukuhlangana lombiki, ukutshela inkosi yeBhabhiloni ukuthi umuzi wayo uthunjiwe kusukela ekucineni,
32 Madooko onse alandidwa, malo onse obisalamo alonda atenthedwa ndi moto, ndipo ankhondo onse asokonezeka.”
lamazibuko abanjiwe, lamaxhaphozi atshiswe ngomlilo, lamadoda empi ethukile.
33 Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, “Babuloni wokongola uja wakhala ngati malo opunthirapo tirigu pa nthawi yake yopuntha tirigu; A ku Yerusalemu akuti, Posachedwapa nthawi yake yomukolola ifika.”
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Indodakazi yeBhabhiloni injengebala lokubhulela; kuyisikhathi sokuyinyathela; kuseyisikhatshana, lesikhathi sesivuno sizafika kuyo.
34 A ku Yerusalemu akuti, “Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni watiwononga, watiphwanya, ndi kutitaya ngati mbiya yopanda kanthu. Watimeza ngati ngʼona, wakhuta ndi zakudya zathu zokoma, kenaka nʼkutilavula.”
UNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni ungidlile, ungichobozile; wangibeka ngaba yimbiza engelalutho, wangiginya njengomgobho, wagcwalisa isisu sakhe ngezibondlo zami, wangixotsha.
35 Anthu a ku Ziyoni anene kuti, “Zankhanza zimene anatichitira ife ziwabwerere Ababuloni.” Anthu okhala mu Yerusalemu anene kuti, “Magazi athu amene anakhetsedwa akhale pa amene akukhala ku Babuloni.”
Udlakela lwami lolwenyama yami kube phezu kweBhabhiloni, utsho umhlalikazi weZiyoni; legazi lami libe phezu kwabahlali beKhaladiya, itsho iJerusalema.
36 Nʼchifukwa chake Yehova akuti, “Taona, ndidzakumenyera nkhondo ndi kukulipsirira; ndidzawumitsa nyanja yake ndipo akasupe ake adzaphwa.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, ngizalumela udaba lwakho, ngiphindisele impindiselo yakho; ngomise ulwandle lwayo, ngenze umthombo wayo wome.
37 Motero Babuloni adzasanduka mulu wa nyumba zogumuka, malo okhala nkhandwe, malo ochititsa mantha ndi onyozedwa, malo wopanda aliyense wokhalamo.
LeBhabhiloni izakuba ngamadundulu, indawo yokuhlala yemigobho, isesabiso, lento yokuncifelwa, kungelamhlali.
38 Anthu ake onse adzabangula ngati mkango, adzadzuma ngati ana amkango.
Bazabhonga kanyekanye njengamabhongo ezilwane, bahwabhe njengemidlwane yezilwane.
39 Ngati achita dyera ndiye ndidzawakonzera madyerero ndi kuwaledzeretsa, kotero kuti adzasangalala, kenaka nʼkugona tulo mpaka muyaya ndipo sadzadzukanso,” akutero Yehova.
Ekutshisekeni kwabo ngizabenzela amadili, ngibadakise ukuze bathokoze, balale ubuthongo obulaphakade, bangavuki, itsho iNkosi.
40 “Ine ndidzawatenga kuti akaphedwe ngati ana ankhosa onenepa, ngati nkhosa zazimuna ndi mbuzi.
Ngizabehlisa njengamawundlu ekuhlatshweni, njengezinqama kanye lezimpongo.
41 “Ndithu Babuloni walandidwa, mzinda umene dziko lonse lapansi limanyadira wagwidwa! Taonani, mmene Babuloni wasandukira chinthu chochititsa mantha pakati pa mitundu ya anthu!
Ithunjwe njani iSheshaki; yebo, lubanjiwe udumo lomhlaba wonke! IBhabhiloni isibe njani yisesabiso phakathi kwezizwe!
42 Nyanja yakwera ndi kumiza Babuloni; mafunde ake okokoma aphimba Babuloni.
Ulwandle lukhukhumele phezu kweBhabhiloni, isibekelwe ngobunengi bamagagasi alo.
43 Mizinda yake yasanduka bwinja, dziko lowuma ndi lachipululu, dziko losakhalamo wina aliyense, dziko losayendamo munthu aliyense.
Imizi yayo isingamanxiwa, ilizwe elomileyo, lenkangala, ilizwe okungahlali muntu kulo, okungadluli kulo indodana yomuntu.
44 Ndidzalanga Beli mulungu wa Ababuloni, ndidzamusanzitsa zimene anameza. Mitundu ya anthu sidzapitanso kwa iye. Malinga a Babuloni agwa.
Njalo ngizajezisa uBheli eBhabhiloni, ngikhuphe emlonyeni wakhe lokho akuginyileyo; lezizwe kazisayikujulukela kuyo; yebo, umduli weBhabhiloni uwile.
45 “Tulukani mʼBabuloni anthu anga! Pulumutsani miyoyo yanu! Thawani mkwiyo woopsa wa Yehova.
Phumani phakathi kwayo, bantu bami, likhulule ngulowo lalowo umphefumulo wakhe ekuvutheni kolaka lweNkosi.
46 Musataye mtima kapena kuchita mantha pamene mphekesera zikumveka mʼdziko mwanu. Chaka ndi chaka pamabuka mphekesera za ziwawa mʼdziko lapansi, ndiponso yakuti mfumu yakuti ikuthira nkhondo mfumu ina.
Njalo hlezi inhliziyo yenu ibe buthakathaka, lesabe ngombiko ozwakala elizweni; ngoba kuzafika umbiko ngomunye umnyaka, lemva kwalokho umbiko ngomnyaka olandelayo, lodlakela elizweni, lombusi avukele umbusi.
47 Pakuti taonani, nthawi ikubwera ndithu pamene ndidzalanga mafano a ku Babuloni; dziko lake lonse lidzachita manyazi ndi ophedwa ake onse adzakhala ngundangunda pakati pake.
Ngakho khangela, insuku ziyeza lapho engizahambela izithombe ezibaziweyo zeBhabhiloni; lelizwe lonke layo lizayangeka, lababuleweyo bayo bonke bawele phakathi kwayo.
48 Pamenepo kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo zidzayimba mokondwa chifukwa cha kugwa kwa Babuloni. Anthu owononga ochokera kumpoto adzamuthira nkhondo,” akutero Yehova.
Kuzakuthi-ke amazulu lomhlaba lakho konke okukukho kuhlabelele ngeBhabhiloni, ngoba abachithi bazayifikela bevela enyakatho, itsho iNkosi.
49 “Babuloni anapha anthu ambiri pa dziko lapansi. Tsono, nawo anthu a ku Babuloni ayenera kuphedwa chifukwa anapha anthu a ku Yerusalemu.
Njengalokhu iBhabhiloni yenza bawe ababuleweyo bakoIsrayeli, ngokunjalo ababuleweyo bomhlaba wonke bazakuwa eBhabhiloni.
50 Inu amene munapulumuka ku nkhondo ya Babuloni, chokani pano ndipo musazengereze! Kumbukirani Yehova ngakhale muli ku mayiko akutali, ganizirani za Yerusalemu.”
Lina eliphunyukileyo enkembeni, hambani, lingemi; khumbulani iNkosi lisekhatshana, leJerusalema ivele enhliziyweni yenu.
51 Inu mukuti, “Tikuchita manyazi, chifukwa tanyozedwa ndipo nkhope zathu zili ndi manyazi, chifukwa anthu achilendo alowa malo opatulika a Nyumba ya Yehova.”
Siyangekile ngoba sizwile ihlazo; inhloni zisibekele ubuso bethu, ngoba abezizwe sebefikile ezindaweni ezingcwele zendlu yeNkosi.
52 Nʼchifukwa chake Yehova akuti, “Masiku akubwera pamene ndidzalanga mafano ake, ndipo mʼdziko lake lonse anthu ovulala adzabuwula.
Ngakho khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho engizahambela izithombe zayo ezibaziweyo; lakulo lonke ilizwe layo kuzabubula ogwaziweyo.
53 Ngakhale Babuloni atadzikweza mpaka mlengalenga ndi kulimbitsa nsanja zake, ndidzatuma anthu owononga kudzamenyana naye,” akutero Yehova.
Loba iBhabhiloni ingaphakamela emazulwini, njalo loba ingaqinisa ukuphakama kwamandla ayo, kube kanti abachithi bazayifikela bevela kimi, itsho iNkosi.
54 “Imvani mfuwu wolira kuchokera ku Babuloni. Imvani phokoso lachiwonongeko chachikulu kuchokera mʼdziko la Babuloni.
Kulomsindo wokukhala ovela eBhabhiloni, lokufohlela okukhulu elizweni lamaKhaladiya.
55 Pakuti Yehova akuwononga Babuloni, ndipo akuthetsa phokoso lake lalikulu. Mfuwu wa adani ukumveka ngati mkokomo wa madzi ambiri. Phokoso lawo likunka likwererakwerera.
Ngoba iNkosi ichithile iBhabhiloni, yabhubhisa kuyo ilizwi elikhulu. Lapho amagagasi abo ahlokoma njengamanzi amanengi, umsindo wawo uzakhupha ilizwi.
56 Pakuti wowononga wafika kudzamenyana ndi Babuloni, ankhondo ake agwidwa, ndipo mauta awo athyoka. Paja Yehova ndi Mulungu wobwezera chilango; adzabwezera kwathunthu.
Ngoba umchithi wehlela phezu kwayo, phezu kweBhabhiloni, amaqhawe ayo azathunjwa, amadandili awo ephukile; ngoba iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wezimpindiselo, uzayivuza sibili.
57 Ndidzaledzeretsa akuluakulu ake pamodzi ndi anzeru ake, abwanamkubwa ake, atsogoleri a ankhondo pamodzinso ndi ankhondo; adzagona kwamuyaya osadzukanso,” akutero Mfumu, amene dzina lake ndi Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
Ngizadakisa-ke iziphathamandla zayo, lezihlakaniphi zayo, ababusi bayo, lenduna zayo, lamaqhawe ayo; njalo bazalala ubuthongo obulaphakade, bangavuki, itsho iNkosi, obizo layo nguJehova wamabandla.
58 Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Malinga aakulu a Babuloni adzasalazidwa ndipo zipata zake zazitali zidzatenthedwa; mitundu ya anthu inangogwira ntchito pachabe. Anthu anatopa ndi kumanga zimene tsopano zikupsa ndi moto.”
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Imiduli ebanzi yeBhabhiloni izadilizwa ngokupheleleyo, lamasango ayo aphakemeyo athungelwe ngomlilo, labantu batshikatshikele ize, lezizwe zitshikatshikele umlilo, zikhathale.
59 Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda inali ndi phungu wake wamkulu amene dzina lake linali Seraya mwana wa Neriya chidzukulu cha Maseya. Mʼchaka chachinayi cha ulamuliro wake, Zedekiya anapita ndi Seraya ku Babuloni. Tsono mneneri Yeremiya anamupatsirako uthenga Serayayo.
Ilizwi uJeremiya umprofethi alilaya uSeraya indodana kaNeriya, indodana kaMahaseya, ekuhambeni kwakhe loZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ukuya eBhabhiloni emnyakeni wesine wokubusa kwakhe. Njalo uSeraya wayeyisiphathamandla sokuthula.
60 Yeremiya anali atalemba mʼbuku za masautso onse amene adzafike pa Babuloni ndi zina zonse zokhudza Babuloni.
UJeremiya wasebhala egwalweni konke okubi okuzakwehlela iBhabhiloni, wonke lamazwi abhaliweyo emelene leBhabhiloni.
61 Yeremiya anawuza Seraya kuti, “Ukakafika ku Babuloni, ukaonetsetse kuti wawawerengera anthu onse mawu onsewa.
UJeremiya wasesithi kuSeraya: Lapho usufikile eBhabhiloni, ubone ufunde wonke lamazwi.
62 Ndipo ukanene kuti, ‘Inu Yehova, mwanena kuti mudzawononga malo ano, kotero kuti simudzatsala munthu kapena nyama mʼdziko muno; lidzakhala chipululu mpaka muyaya.’
Ubususithi: Nkosi, wena ukhulumile ngalindawo ukuthi uzayiquma, ukuze kungabi khona umhlali kiyo, kusukela emuntwini kusiya enyamazaneni, kodwa ibe zincithakalo phakade.
63 Ukakatha kuwerenga bukuli, ukalimangirire ku mwala ndipo ukaliponye pakati pa mtsinje wa Yufurate.
Kuzakuthi-ke usuqedile ukulufunda lolugwalo, ubophele ilitshe kulo, uluphosele phakathi kweYufrathi,
64 Ndipo ukanene kuti, ‘Umu ndi mmene adzamirire Babuloni ndipo sadzadzukanso chifukwa cha masautso amene adzamugwere.’” Mawu a Yeremiya athera pamenepa.
ubususithi: Ngokunjalo iBhabhiloni izatshona, ingabe isavumbuluka, ngenxa yobubi engizayehlisela bona; njalo bazadinwa. Kuze kube lapha ngamazwi kaJeremiya.
