Ilizwi lafika kuJeremiya mayelana labantu bonke bakoJuda ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakhimi indodana kaJosiya inkosi yakoJuda, okwakungumnyaka wokuqala kaNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni.
2 Hichu Jeremiah themgao pan jong Judah mite leh Jerusalem mite jouse heng’a aseitai.
Ngakho uJeremiya umphrofethi wathi kubo bonke abantu bakoJuda lakubo bonke abahlala eJerusalema:
3 Judah lengpa Amon chapa Josiah lengchan kal kum som le thum lhin’a pat tuni geiyin, kum somni le thum sungin, Pakaiyin kaheng a thu ahin seijing in ahi. Keiman hiche thuho chu, tanglou hel in nangho heng’a kaseison jing in, ahivangin nanghon ngaikhohna naneideh pouve.
Okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili lantathu, kusukela ngomnyaka wetshumi lantathu kaJosiya indodana ka-Amoni inkosi yakoJuda kuze kube yilolusuku, ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi njalo ngalikhuluma kini njalonjalo, kodwa kalilalelanga.
4 Pakaiyin avel vel in, alhacha themgao ho naheng uva ahinsol jing in, ahivangin nanghon gelkhohna naneipouvin chule jah’a hetding jong nagel dehpouve.
Lanxa uThixo wathumela zonke izinceku zakhe abaphrofethi kini njalonjalo, kalilalelanga njalo kalinakanga.
5 Pakai thusei chu hiche ahi, “Nanghon nalamlhahnau lamdih louva kon in hung kihei kit unlang, chule nathilse bol’u chu hindalhauvin. Chutahle nangho chu, keiman napu napateu kana pehsa gamsung’a kachensah ding nahiuve.
Bathi, “Phendukani khathesi, omunye lomunye wenu, ezindleleni zenu ezimbi lasezenzweni zenu ezimbi, lihlale elizweni uThixo alinika lona kanye labokhokho benu kuze kube nininini.
6 Nanghon nakisemdoh u pathen chom chom ho houna leh chibai bolna-a pandauvin. Keima neiphin lunghang hih un, chutile keiman nangho kabolset loudiu nahiuve,’’ ati.
Lingalandeli abanye onkulunkulu ukuba libasebenzele njalo libakhonze; lingangithukuthelisi ngalokho okwenziwa yizandla zenu. Lapho-ke angiyikulehlisela okubi.”
7 Pakaiyin hitin aseiye, “Nanghon kathusei nangaipouve. Nanghon nakisem’u milimdoi chu nahouvun, keima neiphin lunghang uvin, nachunguva chiding jumna leh hamsetna nakiloilut’u ahitai.
“Kodwa kalingilalelanga,” kutsho uThixo, “njalo lingithukuthelisile ngokwenziwa ngezandla zenu, lazehlisela okubi.”
8 Tun Pakai van Pathen chun hitin aseiye. Nanghon kathusei donlouva nakoitah jeh’un,
Ngakho uThixo uSomandla uthi: “Ngenxa yokuthi kalilalelanga amazwi ami,
9 Keiman sahlam gam’a kon’a Babylon lengpa Nebuchadnezzar leh namtin vaipi kachop khomding. Keiman amaho chu hiche gamsung douding, agamsung mite leh akimvel’a chengho doudinga kahin sollut ding ahi. Chule keiman nangho aitih a dinga kasuh mang ding, chule namtin vetset leh kidah umtah’a kalha ding nahiuve.
ngizabiza bonke abantu basenyakatho lenceku yami uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni,” kutsho uThixo, “njalo ngizabaletha ukuba bamelane lelizwe leli labahlala kulo kanye lezizwe zonke eziseduze lalo. Ngizababhubhisa ngokupheleleyo ngibenze babe yinto eyesabekayo leyokuklolodelwa, lencithakalo yanini lanini.
10 Chule keiman nakipanau ogin leh nalasah’u ogin kasuh bei peh ding, jinei ding numei leh pasal kipa thanopna jong kasuh bei ding ahi. Chuteng nain uva sumhei-song gin thip ding, na thaomei jong vahlou ding ahitai.
Ngizasusa phakathi kwabo imisindo yokuthokoza lokuthaba, lelizwi lomlobokazi lelomyeni, lomsindo wamatshe okuchola kanye lokukhanya kwesibane.
11 Hiche gam pumpi hi, pannabei gamkeo sohding, chule kum somsagi sunga chu Israel leh akimvel a gamsung miten, Babylon lengpa ajenle diu ahi.
Ilizwe leli lonke lizakuba yinkangala ephundlekileyo, lezizwe lezi zizasebenzela inkosi yaseBhabhiloni iminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa.
12 Chujouteng, asohchannau kum som sagi ahung kichai nungle, keiman Babylon lengpa leh amite chu agitlounau jal’a, achunguva talen kamatsah ding ahi. Agamsung pumpiu chu, pannabei leh gam homkeova kakoipeh ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Kodwa lapho iminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa isiphelile, ngizayijezisa inkosi yaseBhabhiloni lesizwe sayo, ilizwe lamaKhaladiya, ngenxa yobubi babo,” kutsho uThixo, “njalo ngizalenza lichitheke kokuphela.
13 Chule keiman amaho chunga tijat umtah kathutepsa jouse leh, Jeremiah aphondohsa achunguva chiding talen ho chu, aguilhung lou umlouva kalha ding ahi.
Ngizakwehlisela phezu kwelizwe lelo zonke izinto engazitshoyo ngalo, konke okulotshwe encwadini le okwaphrofethwa nguJeremiya ezizweni zonke.
14 Chule namtin vaipi nasatah hole leng lentah tah hon, Babylon te soh’a avuldiu; Hita chu amahon kamite abolgentheinau bang banga chu, achunguva kalethuh ding ahi, ati.
Lazo uqobo zizathunjwa yizizwe ezinengi lamakhosi amakhulu; ngizaphindisela kubo mayelana lezenzo zabo langemisebenzi yezandla zabo.”
15 Pakai Israel Pathen chun keima jah’a hitin aseiye. “Hiche kalung hanna khon hi, kakhut’a kon in kilah inlang, keiman nangma kasolna namtin vaipi ho chu donsah in.
UThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli wathi kimi, “Yamukela esandleni sami inkezo le egcwele iwayini lolaka lwami unathise zonke izizwe engikuthuma kuzo.
16 Amahon hichu don uvintin, chuteng keiman amaho douna thu kasei jal’a, amaho lonle louva chule ngoldoh gamding ahiuve,’’ati.
Zingalinatha, zizadiyazela zihlanye ngenxa yenkemba engizayithumela phakathi kwazo.”
17 Hijeh chun keiman Pakai lunghanna khon chu kalan, Pakaiyin eisolna namtin vaipi ho chu abonchauvin kadonsahtai.
Ngakho ngayithatha inkezo esandleni sikaThixo ngazinathisa zonke izizwe ayengithume kuzo:
18 Keima Jerusalem leh Judah gamsunga khopi dang jousea kachen, lengho leh leng chapate jouse jong, hiche khon’a chun adonsoh tauve. Hiche nikho’a pat tunia hitia keohel’a, datmo umleuva, chule gaosap chang dingin,

19 Keiman hiche khon chu, Egypt lengpa Pharaoh leh agamsung vaipote, chule asohte leh agamsung mite jouse,
uFaro inkosi yaseGibhithe, lezinceku zakhe, lezikhulu zakhe kanye labantu bakhe bonke,
20 Chule agamsunguva gamchom mi chengho jouse, kapetan ahi. Keiman UZ gamsunga lengho jong, Philistine gamsunga lengho jong, chuleh Ashlkelon, Gaza. Ekron leh Ashdod khopi ho a umden ho jouse jong, kapetan ahi.
labantu bonke bezizweni abakhonale; wonke amakhosi ase-Uzi; wonke amakhosi amaFilistiya (awe-Ashikheloni, eGaza, e-Ekroni, labantu abasala e-Ashidodi);
21 Chuleh Edom mite, Moab mite, Ammon mite jong,
e-Edomi, leMowabi kanye le-Amoni;
22 Chuleh Tyre le Sidon lengho leh twikhanglen gal’a twipi panga chengho jong abonchauvin kapetai.
wonke amakhosi aseThire, leSidoni; amakhosi amazwe angasolwandle ngaphetsheya kwalo,
23 Chule keiman Dedan, Tema, Buz chuleh gam ningkoi lah’a chengho kapetai.
eDedani, leThema leBhuzi labo bonke abasezindaweni ezikhatshana;
24 Chule Arabia lengte, nelphaiya chengho jong,
wonke amakhosi ase-Arabhiya lawo wonke amakhosi abantu bezizweni abahlala enkangala;
25 Zimrilengte Elam le Media lengte jong, keiman kapetai
amakhosi wonke aseZimri, le-Elamu leMediya;
26 Chule keiman sahlam gamsung jousea, anai le agamla a um lengho, aban banin, chule leiset chunga lenggam jouse jong kapetai. Achainakeiyin, Babylon lengpa, amatah injong Pakai lunghanna khon chu adontai.
lawo amakhosi asenyakatho, eduze lakhatshana, elandelana, yonke imibuso esemhlabeni. Emva kwabo bonke, inkosi yaseSheshaki layo izalinatha.
27 Chuin Pakaiyin kajah’a hitin aseiye, “Tun amaho seipeh in, Pakai Hatchungnung Israel Pathen chun aseiye. Kalunghanna khon’a chun don uvin, donkhamset unlang lolha kit uvin. Kiseplhu uvin lang thou kit hih un, ajeh chu keiman nangho douna-a nalah uva chemjam kahin lhalut ding ahi,’’ natiding ahi.
“Lapho-ke batshele uthi, ‘UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Nathani, lidakwe lihlanze, njalo liwe lingavuki futhi ngenxa yenkemba engizayithumela phakathi kwenu.’
28 Ijemtia amahon hiche khon’a chu donding adauva ahileh; Nangman amaho jah’a chu, Pakai Hatchungnung in hitin aseiye, nanaghon hiche khon’a hi nadon teitei diu ahi.
Kodwa bangala ukwamukela inkezo esandleni sakho ukuba banathe, batshele uthi, ‘UThixo uSomandla uthi: Kumele liyinathe!
29 Ajeh chu, keiman kamin’a kikou Jerusalem khopi chu talen kamatsah pan ahitai. Nangho iti talen manlouva kalha ding nahiuvem Nangho talen manlouva naumlou heldiu ahi. Ajeh chu, keiman leiset chung cheng jouse douna-a gal kabolkhum ding ahi, tin Pakaiyin aseiye,’’ natiding ahi.
Khangelani, sengiqalisile ukuletha umonakalo edolobheni elileBizo lami, njalo lina lizaphutha impela ukujeziswa na? Kaliyikuphutha ukujeziswa ngoba ngizakwehlisela inkemba phezu kwabo bonke abahlala emhlabeni, kutsho uThixo uSomandla.’
30 Hijeh chun nangman amaho douna thu hichenghi, gaovinlang ajah uva naseipeh ding; “Pakai chu achenna van mun thenga kon’a hung kitum ding, lengpiga chil ho husa bang’a, hung husa hamlet lut ding ahi. Chule ama chu, leiset chunga cheng jouse douna-a hung kisen jah ding ahi.
Khathesi-ke phrofetha wonke amazwi la ngabo uthi kubo: ‘UThixo uzahlokoma ephezulu; uzaduma esendaweni yakhe engcwele, njalo ahlokome kakhulu emelana lelizwe lakhe. Uzamemeza njengabahluza amavini, akhwaze ngamandla ekhwazela bonke abahlala emhlabeni.
31 Ama thutanna ogin chu leiset mong geiya kitol le le ding, ajeh chu Pakaiyin namtin vaipi chunga douna thu ahinlhut ding ahi. Aman leiset chunga namtin vaipi chunga thu atanding, chule migiloute jouse chemjam’a alousah ding ahi,’’tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Ukuxokozela kuzazwakala emikhawulweni yomhlaba, ngoba uThixo uzazethesa amacala izizwe; uzakwahlulela abantu bonke ababi ababhubhise ngenkemba,’” kutsho uThixo.
32 Pakai Hatchungnung in hitin aseiye, Ven, namtin vaipi chunga hamsetna khohtah, aban ban’a hunglhung ding. Chimpei hattah leiset mang langkhat apat hung doh ding ahi.
Nanku akutshoyo uThixo uSomandla: “Khangelani! Umonakalo uyanda usuka kwesinye isizwe usiya kwesinye; isiphepho esikhulu siyavunguza sivela emikhawulweni yomhlaba.”
33 Hiche nikho chuleh, Pakaiyin mi athaho thilong chu leiset mang langkhat’a pat langkhat geiya kijam chap diu; Amaho chu akadiu leh alunghempi diu mi umlou ding, chule chom khom’a avei ding jong mi umlou ding ahi. Athilong u chu tollhanga chu kithethang’a monlha ding ahiuve.
Ngalesosikhathi labo ababulewe nguThixo bazakuba sezindaweni zonke kusukela komunye kusiya komunye umkhawulo womhlaba. Kabayikukhalelwa loba babuthwe kumbe bangcwatshwe, kodwa bazakuba njengezibi emhlabathini.
34 Vo, kelngoi ching phalou ho, nangho kap’uvin lang maovun! Chule nangho kelngoi hon lah’a apipu ho, tollhanga vutlah’a kile le leuvin! Nakithanadiu nikho ahung lhunge, nangma nalhuh ding leibel kehbai tah bang’a namanthah ding ahi.
Khalani lilile lina belusi; giqikani ethulini lina bakhokheli bomhlambi. Ngoba isikhathi sokubulawa kwenu sesifikile; lizakuwa liphohlozeke njengokubunjiweyo.
35 Nangman kiselna ding mun nanei louding, chule jamdoh nading lampi namulou ding ahi.
Abelusi laba kabayikuba lalapho abangabalekela khona, abakhokheli bomhlambi bengelandawo yokubalekela kuyo.
36 Ngaiyun, kelngoi chingho ka-gin khu, chule kelngoi honlah’a apipu ho pen-gin khu! Ajeh chu, Pakaiyin anehdiu hamhing jouse asuhmangpeh ahitai.
Zwanini ukukhala kwabelusi, ukulila kwabakhokheli bomhlambi, ngoba uThixo uyalichitha idlelo labo.
37 Pakai lunghan khohse chun, lungmong tah’a achennau hamhing lah jouse chu, nelphai gamhomkeo asotai.
Lamadlelo alokuthula azatshabalaliswa ngenxa yolaka olwesabekayo lukaThixo.
38 Keipi in akiselna songko adalhah bangin, Aman amite adalhatai. Pakai lunghanna nasatah leh galmirte chemjam chun, gamsung chu nelgam homkeovin akoitai.
Njengesilwane uzaphuma esikhundleni sakhe, njalo ilizwe labo lizakuba yinkangala ngenxa yenkemba yomncindezeli langenxa yolaka lukaThixo olwesabekayo.
