< Jeremiah 23 >

1 Ohe ada nahiuve, kamite chunga vaihomte; Amahon kakelngoite athecheh un chule asumangun, agelkhoh pouve.
Maye kubelusi abachitha behlakaza izimvu zedlelo lami! itsho iNkosi.
2 Pakai Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye, ‘Nanghon kamite nachingtup pouve, nathe cheh’un chule nadelmang gamtauve. Nathilse bol jeh uva, keiman nachung uva talen kamatsah diu nahiuve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, imelene labelusi abelusa abantu bami: Lizihlakazile izimvu zami, lazixotsha, kalizethekelelanga. Khangelani, ngizaphindisela phezu kwenu ububi bezenzo zenu, itsho iNkosi.
3 Amavang, kamite ahingdoh amoh chengse chu, kathe chehna gamsung hoa kon’a kamite kachop khomding, amaho chu agamsung uva keiman kahin lepuikit diu ahi. Chule amaho phatthei chang uva, pung jal dingu ahiuve.
Mina-ke ngizabutha insali yezimvu zami iphume kuwo wonke amazwe lapho engizixotshele khona, ngizibuyise futhi esibayeni sazo; njalo zizazala, zande.
4 Chutengle, amaho kelngoi chinbanga chingtup ding mikhat kalhenpih ding ahi. Hita chu kamiten kichat tijat atokit loudiu ahi, kei Pakaiyin kasei ahitai.
Ngizamisa phezu kwazo abelusi abazazelusa; njalo kazisayikwesaba, kaziyikutshaywa luvalo, kaziyikulahleka, itsho iNkosi.
5 Pakaiyin aseiye, ‘David guiya kon’a chilhah theng khat katun doh nading nikho chu ahung lhung e. Ama chun chingthei tah’a lengvai ahin pohding, chule gamsung pumpia dihtah’a thil abol ding ahi.
Khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho engizavusela uDavida iHlumela elilungileyo; njalo iNkosi izabusa iphumelele, izakwenza isahlulelo lokulunga emhlabeni.
6 Ama chu, ‘Pakai eiho themchanna pa kiti ding ahi. Hiche nikho chule, Judahte huhdoh’a umding, chule Israelte lungmonga khosa ding ahiuve.
Ensukwini zalo uJuda uzasindiswa, loIsrayeli ahlale evikelekile. Njalo leli libizo layo ezabizwa ngalo: INkosi Ukulunga Kwethu.
7 ‘Phat ahunglhunge, mihon akihahsel teng ule, ‘Pakai hingjing, Israelte Egypt a kon’a hinpui dohpa ‘tia asei tahlou diu ahi,’ tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Ngakho khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho abangasayikuthi: Kuphila kweNkosi, eyabakhuphula abantwana bakoIsrayeli elizweni leGibhithe.
8 Miho chun, ‘Pakai hingjing, Israelte athechehna gamho’a kon’a, chule sahlam gam’a kon’a. hinlepuikit pa,’tia kamin aseijoh diu ahi. Hitia chu amaho gamsunga cheng diu ahi,’ ati.
Kodwa: Kuphila kweNkosi eyakhuphula eyaletha inzalo yendlu kaIsrayeli isuka elizweni lenyakatho lakuwo wonke amazwe engangiyixotshele khona. Njalo bazahlala elizweni lakibo.
9 Thujou jeng sei themgao lhemho jallin, kalung ana behseh in, kagu kachang geiyin akithinge. Pakaiyin amaho douna asei athutheng ho kajan, hichun keima jukham bangin kalon le le jenge.
Mayelana labaprofethi: Inhliziyo yami yephukile ngaphakathi kwami; amathambo ami wonke ayathuthumela; nginjengesidakwa, lanjengomuntu owehlulwe liwayini, ngenxa yeNkosi, langenxa yamazwi obungcwele bayo.
10 Ijeh inem itile, gamsung hi huh le jon adim in, Pakai gaosap achutai. Gam leiset alunghem tan, gamlah’a hamhing jouse agoplha gamtai. Ajeh chu amahon athaneinau chu thilse bol nopnan aneitauve.
Ngoba ilizwe ligcwele izifebe; ngoba ngenxa yesiqalekiso ilizwe liyalila; amadlelo enkangala omile, lokuhamba kwabo kubi, lamandla abo kawaqondanga.
11 Thempu ho leh themgao hon Pathen hephata louvin, gitlouna adimset tauve. Aphatlounau hi, keima insung jeng’a jong kamudoh tai, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Ngoba lomprofethi lompristi kabamesabi uNkulunkulu; ngitsho endlini yami ngitholile ububi babo, itsho iNkosi.
12 Hijeh chun, amaho lamlhahna alampiu chunalding, chule kho hungthim ding ahi. Ijeh inem itile, keiman achunguva hahsatna kalhun sah’a, talen kamatsah ding phat chu ahung lhunge, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Ngakho indlela yabo izakuba kibo njengezindlela ezitshelelayo emnyameni; bafuqelwa phansi, bawele kuyo; ngoba ngizabehlisela okubi ngomnyaka wokuhanjelwa kwabo, itsho iNkosi.
13 Keiman Samaria themgao ho lah’a chonset khohtah kamui. Amahon, Ba-al min in gaothu aseiyun, kamite apuimang gam tauve.
Ngibonile-ke ubuwula kubaprofethi beSamariya; baprofetha ngoBhali, baduhisa abantu bami uIsrayeli.
14 Thilse bolna lam’a alamkaiyun ahiuve. Ven, amitakip gitlouna dalha-a, chule setna nungsun aumpouve. Amaho hi, Sodom leh Gommorah setna tobang ahitauve.
Kodwa kubaprofethi beJerusalema ngibonile into eyesabekayo; bayafeba, bahambe emangeni, baqinisa izandla zabenzi bobubi ukuze bangaphenduki ngulowo ebubini bakhe; bonke sebenjengeSodoma kimi, labakhileyo bayo njengeGomora.
15 Hichun, thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye. “Keiman amahohi namtul jungkha-a kavah ding chule thina gutwi kadonsah ding ahiuve. Ajeh chu amaho’a kon in gamsung’a Pathen nahsah louna adimsohtai,’’ ati.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla mayelana labaprofethi: Khangela, ngizabadlisa umhlonyane, ngibanathise amanzi enyongo; ngoba kusukela kubaprofethi beJerusalema ukungamesabi uNkulunkulu kuphumele ilizwe lonke.
16 Thaneipen Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Themgao ho gaothu sei chu ngai hih un, amahon pannabeiya nakinep sah’u ahibouve. Amaho lunggel gel aseiyun, Pakaiya kon’a aseidoh’u aumpoi.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Lingalaleli amazwi abaprofethi abaprofetha kini; balenza libe yize; bakhuluma umbono wenhliziyo yabo, hatshi ovela emlonyeni weNkosi.
17 Amahon Pakai thusei nahsah louva koiho kom’a chun, “Olmo hih un, nangho ima tipouvin nate” atiuvin ahi. Amahon louchal tah in abolnom nom abol uvin, miho jah’a chun, “Na chunguva thilse lhungponte’’ atiuvin ahi.
Baqhubeka besithi kwabangidelelayo: INkosi ithe: Lizakuba lokuthula; njalo bathi kuye wonke ohamba ngenkani yenhliziyo yakhe: Ububi kabuyikukwehlela.
18 Hiche themgao hohi, Pakaiyin aumpi jing’a, chule Pakai thusei ajah mongu hinam? Amaho lah’a koipen khu, Pakai thusei ngaikhoh um’uvem?
Ngoba ngubani omi kucebo leNkosi, wabona wezwa ilizwi layo? Ngubani oqaphelise ilizwi lakhe, walizwa?
19 Ven, Pakai lunghanna chu khopi hui le go kitho’a, chule chimpei kipeiya, michonsete luchang asemmang tobang hiding ahi.
Khangela, isivunguzane seNkosi, ulaka luphumile, ngitsho isivunguzane esibuhlungu; sizakwehlela ngamandla phezu kwekhanda labakhohlakeleyo.
20 Pakaiyin alungsatna chu, agel banga aboldoh kahsea, alunghan dailha deh louhel ding ahi. Hichu ni nunung tengle nanghon kicheh tah’a nahetdiu ahi.
Ulaka lweNkosi kaluyikuphenduka, ize yenze, njalo ize iqinise iminakano yenhliziyo yayo. Ekucineni kwezinsuku lizakuqedisisa lokukuqedisisa.
21 Hiche themgao hohi, keiman la kasolpon, ahivangin, amaho alhei lhei jeng uve. Chule akom’uva thujong kaseipon, hijongle amahon gaothu asei sei jeng uvin ahi.
Kangibathumanga lababaprofethi, kanti bona bagijima; kangikhulumanga labo, kanti bona baprofetha.
22 Amaho chu, ka-angsunga umjing hileu, kathusei angaiyuva hichu miho kom’a aphonjal diu ahi. Chutile amahon kamite chu, achekhelnau lampi’a konle athilse bolnauva kon’a ahin lepuikit diu ahi.
Kodwa uba bebemi kucebo lami, ngabe benza abantu bami bezwa amazwi ami, ngabe babaphendula endleleni yabo embi lebubini bezenzo zabo.
23 Keima nailam cha-a umjing Pathen kahi lou ham? Keima munjousea umjing Pathen kahi, ti Pakaiyin aseiye.
NginguNkulunkulu oseduze yini, itsho iNkosi, njalo hatshi uNkulunkulu okhatshana?
24 Koiham keiya kon’a kisel mang thei dinga? Keima van leh leiset munjousea umjing kahi,’’ tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Ukhona yini ongacatsha endaweni ezisithekileyo ukuze ngingamboni? itsho iNkosi. Kangigcwalisi yini amazulu lomhlaba? itsho iNkosi.
25 Hiche themgao hon, asemthu-u gaothu aseijingu hi, keiman kahetai. Amahon miho jah’a, “Pakaiyin kamangin thu eiseipeh e, ngaiyuvin,’’ atiuvin, kamin in jouthu aseileuvin ahi.
Ngizwile ukuthi abaprofethi batheni, abaprofetha amanga ebizweni lami besithi: Ngiphuphile, ngiphuphile!
26 Itih chan chu, amahon asemthu-u gaothu mangcha-a kamite ajoulhep uva, apuimang diu ham?
Koze kube nini kusenhliziyweni yabaprofethi abaprofetha amanga? Yebo, bangabaprofethi benkohliso yenhliziyo yabo;
27 Apu apateuvin keima eidalhah uva Baal ahou bangun, amahon semthu mang aseikhumun, kamite eisuhmil sah ding agel uve.
abacabanga ukwenza abantu bami bakhohlwe ibizo lami ngamaphupho abo abawalandisa ngulowo umakhelwane wakhe, njengaboyise bakhohlwa ibizo lami ngenxa kaBhali.
28 Themgao lhem hon amang semthu-u chu sei sei uhen. Ahinlah, keima kamcheng ja-a keima themgao hon, kitah tah in kathu chu seiphong’uhen. Vetan, changpol leh chang ga akibahna aumpoi, ati.
Umprofethi olephupho, kalilandise iphupho; lolelizwi lami, kalikhulume ilizwi lami ngeqiniso. Amahlanga ayini lamabele? itsho iNkosi.
29 Kathu chu meikong hattah tobang hilou ham? Chule songpi ahal hel a vogoi thei sehpi tobang hilou ham? tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Ilizwi lami kalinjalo njengomlilo yini, itsho iNkosi, lanjengesando esiqhekeza idwala libe yizicucu?
30 Hijeh chun Pakaiyin aseiye, “Keiman hichu jou le nal’a gaothu seiho, chule Pakaiya kon’a thuguh mu a kiseiho, kadou ahi,’’ ati.
Ngakho khangela, ngimelene labaprofethi, itsho iNkosi, abeba amazwi ami, ngulowo kumakhelwane wakhe.
31 Jouthu seiya lei kilehpel ho, Pakaiya kon thu kaseiyu ahi tia, keima min pom’a thusei ho, keiman kadou ahi.
Khangela, ngimelene labaprofethi, itsho iNkosi, abasebenzisa ulimi lwabo, bathi: Ithi.
32 Hiche themgao lhem hohi, keiman hatah in kadouve. Amahon mang asemthu uvin, gaothu aseiyun, kamite hi chonsetna a apuilut sohtauvin ahi. Ahivangin, keiman amaho hi kasolpoi. Chule amaho heng a thujong kasei khapoi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Khangela, ngimelene labaprofetha amaphupho amanga, itsho iNkosi, bawalandisa, baduhise abantu bami ngamanga abo, langokuwalazela kwabo, kanti mina ngingabathumanga, ngingabalayanga; ngakho kabayikubasiza ngitsho ngalutho lababantu, itsho iNkosi.
33 Hiche mite khattou hon, themgao khattou ham, chule thempu khattou ham chun, nahin doh’uva, “Pakaiyin apohgih thu ipi asei am?’’ atiule, nangin amaho jah’a, “Pakai pohgih chu nangho nahiuve. Hijeh a chu Pakaiyin nang hohi napaidoh diu ahitai, tin Pakaiyin aseiye,’’ tia naseipeh ding ahi.
Lalapho lababantu, loba umprofethi, kumbe umpristi, bekubuza, besithi: Uyini umthwalo weNkosi? Khona uzakuthi kibo: Umthwalo bani? Ukuthi ngizalidela, itsho iNkosi.
34 Chule themgao khat ham, thempu khat ham, chule mite lah a khatpen ham in, “Pakaiyin kahenga thu aseiye, ti mi aumleh, ama leh a insung mite abon’a keiman talen kamatsah ding ahi,’’ ati.
Mayelana lomprofethi, lompristi, labantu, abazakuthi: Umthwalo weNkosi; ngizamjezisa lalowomuntu lendlu yakhe.
35 Hisanga chu, nangho khat le khat nakidoh touva, Pakaiyin ipi aseiyam? Chule Pakaiyin iti adonbut uvem? nati joh dingu ahi.
Lizakhuluma ngalindlela, ngulowo kumakhelwane wakhe, langulowo kumfowabo: INkosi iphendule yathini? Lokuthi: INkosi ikhulumeni?
36 Amavang, nanghon ‘Pakaiya kon Pakai pohgih’ ti thucheng hi naman louhel diu ahi. Ajeh chu mihon, amaho dei dei bol nopnan amangun, Pathen thu chu aleheisoh gamtauvin ahi.
Kodwa umthwalo weNkosi kalisayikukhuluma ngawo. Ngoba ilizwi langulowo lalowomuntu lizakuba ngumthwalo wakhe, ngoba liwahlanekele amazwi kaNkulunkulu ophilayo, iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu wethu.
37 Nangman themgao ho chu hiti hin dongin, “Pakaiyin iti nadonbut uvem? Chule Pakaiyin ipi aseiyam?’’ natiding ahi.
Uzakutsho ngokunjalo kumprofethi: INkosi ikuphenduleni? njalo: INkosi ikhulumeni?
38 Ijemtia amahon “Kaseiyu hi Pakaiya kon ahi” atiuleh; Nangin seipeh jengin, “Pakaiyin aseiye, keiman neiminphah lou diuva kagih vangun, nanghon,” hiche hi Pakaiya kon ahi, nati tei teiyun;
Kodwa uba lisithi: Umthwalo weNkosi; ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngoba likhuluma lamazwi okuthi: Umthwalo weNkosi; njalo ngithumele kini ngisithi: Lingabokuthi: Umthwalo weNkosi;
39 Hijeh’a chu, keiman nangho kageldoh kit louhel diu, napu napateu kapehsa hiche khopi jong kasuh mang ding, chule nangho jong kachop kom’a kadelmang diu nahiuve, ati.
ngakho khangelani, mina ngizalikhohlwa ngokupheleleyo, ngitshiye lina lomuzi engalinika wona laboyihlo, lisuke ebusweni bami.
40 Chule keiman nachung uva, tonsot kumkhoa jum le ja kathoh sah a, aitih’a vetda nachannau beilou ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye, ati.
Njalo ngizabeka phezu kwenu ihlazo elilaphakade lokuyangeka okulaphakade, okungayikukhohlakala.
