Jeremiah 7
1 Hiche thuhi, Pakaiyin Jeremiah henga aseiyin, hitin ati.
Leli yilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela kuThixo lisithi:
2 Kipat in, Pakai houin lutna kotbul’a gadingin, mipite henga hiche thuhi gaphongjaltan. Vo Juda mite, Pakaiya hungkon thuhi ngaiyun. Pakai chibai boh dinga hilai mun’a hunglut jousen, nabon’un ngaiyuvin.
“Mana esangweni lendlu kaThixo umemezele ilizwi leli ukhonapho uthi: ‘Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo, lonke lina bantu bakoJuda abangena ngala amasango ukuzakhonza uThixo.
3 Pakai Van Pathen, Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye. Tuyeng injong, nahindolu leh nathilbolu aphalou jouse dalhauvin. Chutileh nangho na gamsunguva hi kachendensah ding nahiuve.
UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Lungisani izindlela zenu lezenzo zenu, ukuze ngilivumele ukuba lihlale kule indawo.
4 Ahinlah, hilaimun’a Pakai houin aumnai, nangho nahoidoh teidiu ahi, tia jou leh nal’a thusei ho kilheplhah sah hih un. Amahon muntin’a, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, tin asei lele uvin ahi.
Lingathembi amazwi akhohlisayo lithi, “Leli lithempeli likaThixo, ithempeli likaThixo, ithempeli likaThixo!”
5 Amavang, nanghon nalunggel’u leh nathilbolu aphalou jouse na dalhahuva, nangho kah’a khat leh khat thu adih’a nakitanpihuva ahileh, keiman nangho kahepiuva kakhoto ding nahiuve.
Lingalungisa izindlela zenu lezenzo zenu sibili liphathane ngokulunga,
6 Nanghon gamdang kholjin miho, chagate leh meithai ho nabolgenthei dauva, chuleh toltha thisan so nabol dauva chuleh semthu Pathen ho nahou dauleh,
nxa lingancindezeli owezizweni, izintandane loba umfelokazi njalo lingachithi gazi elingelacala kule indawo, njalo nxa lingalandeli abanye onkulunkulu okuzalilimaza,
7 Keiman napu napateu kanapehsa hiche gamsunga hi nangho aitih’a kachensah ding nahiuve.
ngizalivumela ukuba lihlale kule indawo, elizweni engalinika okhokho benu ukuba libe ngelabo kuze kube nini lanini.
8 Nanghon, Pakai houin hilaiya aume, eiho huhdoh’a um ihitauve, tia jouthu seile ho’a chun kingai hih’un, pannabei ahibouve.
Kodwa khangelani, lina lithemba amazwi akhohlisayo angasizi lutho.
9 Hitia chu, nanghon naguh chatuva, tol nathauva, mitoh najonuva, Baal pathen houna gim namtwi nahluva chuleh pathen dangho nung najuijinguva,
Kambe lizantshontsha njalo libulale, lifebe, lifunge amanga, litshisele uBhali impepha njalo lilandele abanye onkulunkulu elingakaze libazi,
10 Chuteng hilai mun’a keima angsunga nahung dinuva, kamin pan’a ‘Eiho huhdohihitauve’ natiuva, chuleh nanghon thet um tahtah ho nahiti boljing diu ham?
beselisizakuma phambi kwami kuyonale indlu, eleBizo lami, lithi, “Sivikelekile,” livikeleka ukuba lenze zonke lezizinto ezenyanyekayo na?
11 Nangho mitvet’a hi, hiche kamin’a kiminvosa houin hi, gucha michom ho kokhuh ahi, nati ngapu hitam? Tahbeh in hilai mun’a thilse kibol jouse keimatah in abonchan kamusoh hel e, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Indlu le, eleBizo lami, seyaba lubhalu lwabaphangi na? Kodwa kade ngikhangele! kutsho uThixo.
12 Shiloh mun’a tun cheuvin, keima neihouna diuva kamin’a kalhendohsa mun chu ahi. Kami Israelte chonset jeh’a achunguva ipi kabol hitam, gavetauvin ati.
Hambani khathesi endaweni yami eShilo lapho engenza khona kuqala indawo yokuhlala iBizo lami, libone engakwenza kuyo ngenxa yobubi babantu bami bako-Israyeli.
13 Nanghon chonset hijatpi nabolun, keiman tanglou hel’a kaseipih vangun ngaisah in naneipouve. Chuleh keiman nangho kakouvin neihoudeh pouve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
UThixo uthi, kwathi lapho lisenza lezizinto, mina ngakhuluma lani futhifuthi, kodwa kalingilalelanga, ngalibiza, kalaze lasabela.
14 Hijeh’a chu, keiman Shiloh kasuhmang banga, tua hi kamin’a nakisonpiu hiche houin hi kasuhmang ding, chuleh napu napateu kapehsa hiche mun hi kasuhmang ding ahi.
Ngakho-ke, lokho engakwenza eShilo khathesi ngizakwenza kule indlu eleBizo lami, ithempeli elilithembileyo, indawo engalinika yona lina kanye labokhokho benu.
15 Chuleh keiman nainkote Israelte chunga kabol banga, nangho kamitmua kon’a sohchang dinga kadelmang ding nahiuve.
Ngizalixotsha phambi kwami, njengalokho engakwenza abafowenu bonke, abantu bako-Efrayimi.’
16 Vo Jeremiah, hiche mite hi taopih datan. Amaho din taodan lang chuleh kap jong kap hih in. Chuleh amaho din kahenga hung tao hih in, ajeh chu keiman kangaipih lou ding nahi.
Ngakho abantu laba ungabakhulekeli loba ubakhulumele kumbe ubenzele isicelo; ungangincengi ngoba angiyikukulalela.
17 Amahon, Judah gam khopi ho leh Jerusalem khopi lailunga, anop nop abolu khu, nangman namu lou ham?
Abakwenzayo emadolobheni akoJuda lasemigwaqweni yaseJerusalema kawukuboni na?
18 Keima kalung analheh e! Vetan, chapang hon thing achom un, mipaten thil tona ding mei atih un, numeihon van lengnu asah u pathennu houna dingin changbong ameh un, changlhah asemuve. Chuleh keima lung natsah nadin amahon pathen dangho henga donthei thilto atohuvin, eipohnat sah uve.
Abantwana batheza inkuni, oyise babasa imililo, labesifazane baxova inhlama benzele iNdlovukazi yaseZulwini isinkwa. Bathelela abanye onkulunkulu iminikelo yokunathwayo ukuba bangithukuthelise.
19 Amahon alung natsahuva alunghansah uva chu keima kahilou ham? tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
Kodwa yimi abangithukuthelisayo na? kutsho uThixo. Kabazilimazi bona ngokwabo na, okulihlazo kubo?
20 Hijeh chun Hatchungnung Pakaiyin aseiye, Keiman hilaiya hi, mihem hihen, sahem hihen, thingphung holeh loujaova lousoh gaho hijongleh, kalungsatna meikou chu kabuh lhah ding, chuleh meikou phalmit mohel banga akah ding ahi, ati.
‘Ngakho uThixo Wobukhosi uthi: Ukuthukuthela kwami lolaka lwami kuzakwehliselwa kule indawo, phezu kwabantu lasezinyamazaneni, phezu kwezihlahla zeganga laphezu kwezithelo zomhlabathi; njalo kuzakutsha kungacitsheki.
21 Pakai Van Pathen leh Israel Pathen chun hitin aseiye, pumgo thilto naboluva chuleh kilhaina thilto chom chom nabol hou chu, kilah uvin lang nanghon nachaisoh uvin.
UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Qhubekani, fakani iminikelo yenu yokutshiswa kweminye imihlatshelo yenu lidle inyama lina ngokwenu!
22 Keiman napu napateu Egypt gam’a kon’a kahin puidoh chun, amaho kom’a pumgo thilto leh kilhaina thilto kangehpoi.
Ngoba ekukhupheni kwami okhokho benu eGibhithe ngikhuluma labo, angizange ngibanike imilayo nje kuphela ngeminikelo yokutshiswa lemihlatshelo,
23 Keiman kangeh chu,’ kathu ngaiyun, chutileh keima nangho Pathen kahia, nangho kamite nahidiu ahi. Chuleh naphatthei nadiuvin, ijakai kathupeh bangin boluvin, kati.
kodwa ngabanika umlayo lo othi: Ngilalelani, njalo ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wenu lina libe ngabantu bami. Hambani ngezindlela zonke engililaye zona, ukuze kulilungele.
24 Ahivangin kamiten kathusei ngai nahsah in aneipouve. Amahon lungthim setah leh louchaltah in, adei deiyin aboluvin, mache louvin anungche jouvin ahi.
Kodwa kabazange balalele kumbe banake; esikhundleni salokho, bona balandela inkani yentando yezinhliziyo zabo ezimbi. Baya emuva hatshi phambili.
25 Napu napateuvin Egypt gam ahin dalhah niuva pat tuni geiyin, keiman kalhacha themgaoho tanglouvin niseh in ahenguva kasol jingin ahi.
Kusukela ngesikhathi okhokho benu besuka eGibhithe kuze kube khathesi, usuku ngosuku, njalonjalo ngalithumela izinceku zami abaphrofethi.
26 Ahivangin kamiten kathusei angaipouve, chuleh anakhanguva jah ding jong agelpouve. Louchal tah in aum un, apu apateu sangin thilse jo aboltauve.
Kodwa kabangilalelanga kumbe banake. Babelentamo ezilukhuni njalo benza ububi obudlula obabokhokho babo.’
27 Hijat hi amaho seipehin, amavang na sei ngaideh pouvinte. Nangman gihsalnan amaho kou jong lechun, amahon nahin houydeh pouvinte.
Lapho ubatshela konke lokhu, kabayikukulalela; lalapho ubabiza, kabayikusabela.
28 Chuteng nangin amaho seipeh in, Hiche nam mite hi Pakai a Pathenu thusei ngailoute ahiuvin, chuleh engbolna jong hilna-a kisanthei loute ahiuve. Alahuva thutah amangtan chuleh akamsungva jong thutah akijatapoi.
Ngakho batshele uthi, ‘Lesi yisizwe esingalalelanga uThixo uNkulunkulu waso kumbe sivume ukuqondiswa. Iqiniso selifile; kalisekho ezindebeni zabo.
29 Nalu kihettol inlang puldouvin, chuteng molsang laiya nachangin ga kaptan. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin alunghan jeh’a hiche nam mite hi apaidoh a adalhah ahitai.
Gelani inwele zenu lizilahlele khatshana; lenze isililo emiqolweni elugwadule, ngoba uThixo usesalile wasidela isizukulwane lesi esingaphanasi kolaka lwakhe.’”
30 Ajeh chu, Judah miten kamitmu changin chonset aboltauve. Amahon kamin a kiminvo houin sunga thet umtah doilim akoiyun, muntheng asubohtauve, tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
“‘Abantu bakoJuda benze ububi phambi kwami, kutsho uThixo. Bamise izithombe zabo ezenyanyekayo endlini eleBizo lami balingcolisa.
31 Amahon milim houna doi-phung tampi, Ben-Hinnom phaicham munsanglai Topheth mun’a chun, asemdoh uvin, hichea chun amahon achanuteu leh a chapateu jong govam din atohdoh jengun ahiuve. Ahin hitobang thil hoise bolna din keiman thupeh kabolpon, chuleh kalung gel’a jong kagelkhapoi.
Sebakhe izindawo eziphakemeyo zaseThofethi esigodini saseBheni-Hinomu ukuba batshisele khona amadodana lamadodakazi abo ngomlilo, into engingabalayanga yona, engazange ifike engqondweni yami.
32 Hijeh chun heuvin, anikho chu ahunglhunge, tin Pakaiyin aseiye. Hiche munsanglai ho chu Topheth kititalou ding, chuleh Ben-Hinnom phaicham tiajong kihetalou ding, amavang kithagamna phaicham kitiding ahi. Amahon Topheth mun’a chu mithi avui avuidiu ahi, kivuina ding mun onglou hel’a mithi umding ahi.
Ngakho qaphelani, insuku ziyeza, kutsho uThixo, lapho abantu bengayikuyithi yiThofethi kumbe iSigodi saseBheni-Hinomu, kodwa iSigodi sokuBulala, ngoba abafileyo bazabangcwaba eThofethi kuze kusweleke indawo.
33 Chuteng kamite athiho tahsa chu vachate leh gamsate neh leh chah hiding, amaho gahoh jamding koima cha umlou ding ahitai.
Lapho-ke izidumbu zabantu laba zizakuba yikudla kwezinyoni zasemoyeni lezinyamazana zomhlaba, njalo akuyikuba lomuntu ozazethusa.
34 Chutia chu, keiman Jerusalem khopi lailunga kipa golnop kithong gin kasuh tangding ahi. Chuleh Judah khopiho’a jong kicheng dinga um mou leh moulang ho kipa thanop agin jouse kijatalou ding ahi. Ijeh inem itileh, agamsung chu ahom keuva kijam ding ahitai.
Ngizaqeda imisindo yokuthokoza leyenjabulo emadolobheni akoJuda lasemigwaqweni yaseJerusalema, lokuthaba lelizwi lomlobokazi lelomyeni, ngoba ilizwe lizachitheka.’”
