Jeremiah 38
1 Jeremiah loh pilnam pum taengah a thui ol te Mattan capa Shephatiah, Pashur capa Gedaliah, Shelemiah capa Jukal, Malkhiah capa Pashur loh a yaak.
UShefathiya indodana kaMathani, loGedaliya indodana kaPashuri, loJukali indodana kaShelemiya, loPashuri indodana kaMalikiya, sebezwile amazwi uJeremiya ayewakhuluma kubo bonke abantu esithi:
2 “BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. He khopuei kah khosa rhoek te cunghang neh, khokha neh, duektahaw neh duek uh ni. Tedae Khalden taengah aka mop tah hing rhoe hing ni. A hinglu te a taengah kutbuem bangla om vetih hing ni.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Osala kulumuzi uzakufa ngenkemba, ngendlala, langomatshayabhuqe wesifo; kodwa ophuma aye kumaKhaladiya uzaphila, ngoba uzakuba lempilo yakhe ibe yimpango, aphile.
3 BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. He khopuei he Babylon manghai caem kut dongah a paek rhoe a paek vetih a loh ni,” a ti.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Lumuzi uzanikelwa isibili esandleni sebutho lenkosi yeBhabhiloni, elizawuthumba.
4 Tedae mangpa rhoek loh manghai taengah, “Hekah hlang he duek laeh saeh. He ol lamloh amih taengah a thui ham akhaw he khopuei kah aka sueng caemtloek hlang rhoek kut neh pilnam pum kah kut ni a khah pah. Hekah hlang ngawn tah he pilnam kah ngaimongnah ham lakah yoethaenah ham bueng toem pawt nim?” a ti uh.
Iziphathamandla zasezisithi enkosini: Ake abulawe lumuntu, ngoba ngalindlela uyekethisa izandla zamadoda empi asele kulumuzi, lezandla zabo bonke abantu, ngokukhuluma kibo amazwi anje; ngoba lumuntu kadingi ukuthula kwalababantu, kodwa okubi.
5 Te dongah manghai Zedekiah loh, “Anih he nangmih kut ah ni a om ne. Nangmih ol te manghai loh a aal thai ngawn moenih,” a ti nah.
Inkosi uZedekhiya yasisithi: Khangela, usesandleni senu, ngoba inkosi kayilakho okuphambene lani ngalutho.
6 Te dongah Jeremiah te a khuen uh tih thongim vongup kah manghai capa Malkhiah kah tuito khuila a voeih uh. Jeremiah te rhui neh a colh uh vaengah tangrhom khuiah tui om pawh. Tedae tangnong kak la om tih Jeremiah khaw tangnong dongah buek.
Basebemthatha uJeremiya, bamphosela emgodini kaMalikiya indodana yenkosi, owawusegumeni lentolongo, bamehlisa uJeremiya ngamagoda; kwakungelamanzi emgodini, kodwa udaka; uJeremiya wasetshona odakeni.
7 Jeremiah tuito ah a khueh uh te manghai im kah imkhoem Kushi hlang Ebedmelek loh a yaak. Te vaengah manghai te Benjamin vongka ah ngol.
Kwathi uEbedimeleki umEthiyophiya indoda umthenwa, owayesendlini yenkosi, esizwa ukuthi uJeremiya bamfake emgodini (lapho inkosi yayihlezi esangweni lakoBhenjamini),
8 Te dongah Ebedmelek te manghai im lamloh cet tih manghai te a thui pah.
uEbedimeleki waphuma endlini yenkosi, wakhuluma lenkosi esithi:
9 “Ka boei manghai aw, he kah hlang rhoek loh thaehuet nen ni tonghma Jeremiah te boeih a saii uh. Anih he tangrhom khuila a voeih uh dae khopuei khuiah buh a om voel pawt dongah khokha ah amah khaw duek ni,” a ti nah.
Nkosi yami, nkosi, abantu laba benzile okubi ngakho konke abakwenze kuJeremiya umprofethi, abamphosele emgodini, ngoba uzakufa endaweni yakhe ngenxa yendlala, ngoba kakusekho isinkwa emzini.
10 Te dongah manghai loh Kushi Ebedmelek te a uen tih, “Na kut hmukah hlang sawmthum he khuen lamtah tonghma Jeremiah te a duek hlan ah tangrhom lamloh doek laeh,” a ti nah.
Inkosi yasimlaya uEbedimeleki umEthiyophiya, isithi: Thatha lapha amadoda angamatshumi amathathu ngaphansi kwesandla sakho, umenyule uJeremiya umprofethi emgodini engakafi.
11 Te dongah Ebedmelek loh a kut dongkah hlang rhoek te a kuen tih manghai im thakvoh taengla cet. Te phoeiah himbai rhuem lamkah aka pawn, aka pawn te a loh tih nakkhoe rhuem te tangrhom khuikah Jeremiah taengah rhui neh a hlak pah.
Ngakho uEbedimeleki wathatha amadoda ngaphansi kwesandla sakhe, wangena endlini yenkosi waze waba ngaphansi kwesiphala, wathatha khona izidwedwe ezidabukileyo lezidwedwe ezigugileyo, wazehlisela kuJeremiya emgodini ngamagoda.
12 Kushi Ebedmelek loh Jeremiah te, “Himbai rhuem nakpawn neh nakkhoe te na ban sukvai hmuikah rhui dang ah dok ne,” a ti nah tih Jeremiah long khaw a saii van.
UEbedimeleki umEthiyophiya wasesithi kuJeremiya: Ake ufake izidwedwe ezidabukileyo lezigugileyo ngaphansi kwamakhwapha akho ngaphansi kwamagoda. UJeremiya wasesenza njalo.
13 Jeremiah te rhui neh a doek uh tih tangrhom lamloh a poh uh. Tedae Jeremiah he thongim vongup ah ni a om.
Basebemdonsa uJeremiya ngamagoda, bamenyula emgodini. UJeremiya wasehlala egumeni lentolongo.
14 Te phoeiah manghai Zedekiah loh a tah tih tonghma Jeremiah te BOEIPA im kah a pathum vongka la a khuen. Manghai loh Jeremiah te, “Kai loh nang te ol kan dawt vaengah he kai taengah ol phah boeh ne,” a ti nah.
Inkosi uZedekhiya yasithuma yathatha uJeremiya umprofethi yamusa kuye, ekungeneni kwesithathu okusendlini yeNkosi. Inkosi yasisithi kuJeremiya: Ngizakubuza udaba, ungangifihleli lutho.
15 Jeremiah loh Zedekiah te, “Nang taengah ka puen atah kai he a duek khaw nan duek sak pawt nim? Nang te khoem kang uen ah pataeng kai taengkah he na hnatun moenih,” a ti nah.
UJeremiya wasesithi kuZedekhiya: Uba ngikutshela, kawuyikungibulala lokungibulala yini? Loba ngikweluleka, kawuyikungilalela.
16 Tedae manghai Zedekiah loh Jeremiah taengah a huep la a toemngam tih, “Hingnah BOEIPA amah loh mamih ham hinglu a saii. Nang te kan duek sak pawt vetih na hinglu aka mae hlang rhoek kut ah khaw nang kan tloeng mahpawh,” a ti nah.
Inkosi uZedekhiya yasifunga kuJeremiya ekusithekeni isithi: Kuphila kukaJehova owasenzela lumphefumulo: Isibili kangiyikukubulala, futhi isibili kangiyikukunikela esandleni salamadoda adinga umphefumulo wakho.
17 Te dongah Jeremiah loh Zedekiah te, “Israel Pathen caempuei Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Babylon manghai mangpa rhoek taengah a kun rhoe na kun daengah ni na hinglu te hing vetih khopuei he hmai neh a hoeh pawt eh. Te phoeiah namah khaw na imkhui neh na hing ni.
UJeremiya wasesithi kuZedekhiya: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Uba uphuma isibili uye kuziphathamandla zenkosi yeBhabhiloni, umphefumulo wakho uzaphila, lalumuzi kawuyikutshiswa ngomlilo; uzaphila wena lendlu yakho.
18 Tedae Babylon manghai kah mangpa rhoek taengla na kun pawt koinih khopuei he Khalden kut ah a paek vetih hmai neh a hoeh uh ni. Namah khaw amih kut lamloh na loeih mahpawh,” a ti nah.
Kodwa uba ungaphumi uye kuziphathamandla zenkosi yeBhabhiloni, lumuzi uzanikelwa esandleni samaKhaladiya, awutshise ngomlilo; lawe kawuyikuphunyuka esandleni sawo.
19 Manghai Zedekiah loh Jeremiah taengah, “Khalden taengah aka kuep Judah rhoek te ka mawn coeng, amih kut ah kai n'tloeng vetih kai he m'poelyoe lah ve,” a ti nah.
Inkosi uZedekhiya yasisithi kuJeremiya: Ngiyawesaba amaJuda ahlubukele kumaKhaladiya, hlezi anginikele esandleni sawo, angiklolodele.
20 Jeremiah loh, “N'tloeng mahpawh. Namah taengah ka thui BOEIPA ol te hnatun laeh. Te daengah ni na taengah voelphoeng vetih na hinglu khaw a hing eh.
UJeremiya wasesithi: Kawayikukunikela; ake ulalele ilizwi leNkosi njengalelo engilikhuluma kuwe, khona kukulungele, futhi umphefumulo wakho uzaphila.
21 Tedae BOEIPA loh kai n'tueng ol dongah he kun ham na aal atah,
Kodwa uba usala ukuphuma, yileli ilizwi iNkosi engibonise lona lokuthi:
22 Judah manghai im ah aka sueng huta rhoek te khaw Babylon manghai kah mangpa taengla boeih a khuen uh ni ne. Te vaengah amih loh, “Namah te m'vueh uh tih na ngaimongnah hlang loh namah m'vueinan coeng. Na kho te tuinok dongah buek tih a hnuk la balkhong coeng,’ a ti uh ni.
Khangela-ke, bonke abesifazana abasele endlini yenkosi yakoJuda bazakhitshelwa kuziphathamandla zenkosi yeBhabhiloni, bathi: Abangane bakho bakukhuthazile, bakwehlula; inyawo zakho zitshone odakeni; babuyele emuva.
23 Na yuu neh na ca rhoek te Khalden taengla boeih a khuen uh ni. Namah khaw amih kut lamloh na poenghal pawt vetih Babylon manghai kut loh n'tuuk ni. Te vaengah khopuei he hmai neh a hoeh uh ni,” a ti nah.
Njalo azakhuphela abafazi bonke bakho lamadodana akho kumaKhaladiya; lawe kawuyikuphunyuka esandleni sawo, kodwa uzabanjwa ngesandla senkosi yeBhabhiloni, lalumuzi uzawutshisa ngomlilo.
24 Zedekiah loh Jeremiah te, “He ol he hlang loh a ming pawt daengah ni na duek pawt eh.
UZedekhiya wasesithi kuJeremiya: Kakungabi khona umuntu owaziyo lamazwi, khona ungayikufa.
25 Nang taengah ka thui te mangpa rhoek loh a yaak tih nang taengla ha pawk uh khaming. Te vaengah nang te, 'Kaimih taengah thui laeh, manghai taengah balae na thui? Kaimih taengah phah boeh, nang te kan duek sak uh mahpawh, manghai loh nang taengah balae a thui?' a ti uh atah,
Kodwa nxa iziphathamandla zisizwa ukuthi ngikhulume lawe, zize kuwe zithi kuwe: Ake usitshele, ubusithini enkosini, ungakufihli kithi, khona kasiyikukubulala; njalo inkosi ikhulumeni kuwe;
26 amih te, 'Ka lungmacil he manghai mikhmuh ah ka buk coeng, duek sak pahoi ham atah Jonathan im la kai mael sak boeh,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
uzakuthi-ke kuzo: Mina ngiwise ukuncenga kwami phambi kwenkosi ukuthi ingangibuyiseli endlini kaJonathani ukuze ngifele khona.
27 Mangpa rhoek te Jeremiah taengla boeih ha pawk uh tih anih te a dawt uh. Te vaengah manghai loh a uen ol rhoek te amih taengah boeih a thui. Ol te a yaak uh pawt dongah a taengah hil a phah uh van.
Zasezifika zonke iziphathamandla kuJeremiya, zambuza; yena waziphendula njengawo wonke lamazwi inkosi ewalayileyo. Zasezithula kuye, ngoba udaba lwalungezwakali.
28 Jerusalem a tuuk khohnin duela thongim vongup ah ni Jeremiah a om pueng. Jerusalem a loh vaengah khaw om pueng.
UJeremiya wasehlala egumeni lentolongo kwaze kwaba lusuku iJerusalema eyathunjwa ngalo; wayekhona lapho iJerusalema ithunjwa.
