Jeremiah 18
1 BAWIPA koehoi Jeremiah koe ka phat e lawk teh hettelah a o,
Leli yilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela kuThixo lisithi:
2 Hlaam kasakkung im cet nateh, hawvah kai ni lawk na poe han, atipouh.
“Suka wehlele endlini yombumbi, lapho engizakutshelela khona ilizwi lami.”
3 Hatdawkvah, hlaam kasakkung im lah ka cei teh, hatnavah hlaam kasakkung, hlaam saknae a tabu koe thaw a tawk e hah ka hmu.
Ngakho ngehlela endlini yombumbi, ngambona esebenza ngevili.
4 Amhru hoi sak e talai teh hlaam kasakkung e kut dawk hoi a rawk dawkvah, kasakkung ni ama ni ahawi ati e patetlah a katha alouke e bout a sak.
Kodwa imbiza ayeyibumba ngebumba yonakala ezandleni zakhe; ngakho umbumbi wayenza yaba ngenye imbiza, ngendlela ayibona ingcono kuye.
5 Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA e lawk teh kai koe a pha.
Ilizwi likaThixo laselifika kimi lisithi;
6 Oe Isarel imthungkhu, hete hlaam kasakkung ni hlaam a sak e patetlah kai ni nangmouh heh na sak thai mahoeh maw, telah BAWIPA ni ati. Hlaam kasakkung e kut dawkvah talaihlaam ao e patetlah oe Isarel imthungkhu nangmouh hai kaie kut dawkvah na o awh.
“Wena ndlu ka-Israyeli, ngingeze ngenza kuwe njengokwenziwa ngumbumbi lo na?” kutsho uThixo. “Njengebumba esandleni sombumbi lawe unjalo esandleni sami, wena ndlu ka-Israyeli.
7 Nâtuek hai uknae thoseh, miphun kong dawk thoseh, phawk hoi ka raphoe vaiteh, ka yei han telah ka dei nakunghai,
Nxa ngimemezela langasiphi isikhathi ukuthi isizwe loba umbuso uzasuswa udilizwe, uchithwe,
8 hote miphun ni ahni taranlahoi ka dei e kecu dawk, hawihoehnae kamlang takhai pawiteh, a lathueng vah hawihoehnae sak hanelah, ka kâcai e hah ka kâhno han.
kuthi isizwe leso engisixwayisileyo siphenduke ebubini baso, ngizaxola ngingabe ngisasehlisela ebesengimise ukusehlisela khona.
9 Hahoi nâtuek e atueng hai miphun kong dawk thoseh, uknae kong dawk thoseh, ka sak vaiteh, ka kangdue sak han telah ka dei nakunghai,
Njalo nxa ngesinye isikhathi ngimemezela ukuthi isizwe kumbe umbuso ngizawakha ngiwumise,
10 ka dei e ngai laipalah ka mithmu vah kathoute sak pawiteh, ahni hanlah hawinae ka sak han ka tie hah, let ka kâhno han.
ube ususenza ububi emehlweni ami njalo ungangilaleli, ngizacabanga kutsha ngokuhle ebesengicebe ukukwenzela khona.
11 Hatdawkvah, Judah taminaw hoi Jerusalem khokasaknaw koe BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. KHenhaw! nangmae kong dawk hnokahawi e ka pouk teh, kâtarannae ka pouk lahun, tami pueng ni kahawihoehe nuencang hah kamlang takhai pawiteh, na hringnae khosaknae nuen hah kâthung awh telah tet pouh.
Ngakho khathesi tshela abantu bakoJuda lalabo abahlala eJerusalema uthi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: Khangelani! Ngilungisela ukulehlisela umonakalo njalo ngibumba lecebo ngani. Ngakho phendukani ezindleleni zenu ezimbi, omunye lomunye wenu, lilungise izindlela zenu lezenzo zenu.’
12 Hateiteh, ahnimouh ni hot teh ngaihawinae kaawm hoeh e doeh ati, ma ni ahawi tie patetlah o awh vaiteh, tami pueng a lungpouk payonnae ni kâ a poe e patetlah sak awh han telah ati awh.
Kodwa bazaphendula bathi, ‘Akusizi lutho. Sizaqhubeka ngamacebo ethu; lowo lalowo wethu uzalandela ubulukhuni benhliziyo yakhe embi.’”
13 Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Jentelnaw pacei awh haw, het patet lae apinimaw a thai boi, Isarel tanglakacuem ni takikatho e hno hah a sak toe.
Ngakho uThixo uthi: “Buzani phakathi kwezizwe ukuthi: Ngubani owake wezwa okunjengalokhu na? Kwenziwe into eyesabekayo kakhulu, yenziwe yintombi egcweleyo u-Israyeli.
14 Lebanon mon talung van e ka bawt e tadamtui hah tami buet touh ni a ceitakhai boimaw. A tengpam hoi ka lawng e tuipading hah a hak boimaw.
Ungqwaqwane waseLebhanoni uyake unyamalale emithezukweni yayo elamatshe na? Amanzi akhona aqandayo avela kude ayake eme ukugeleza na?
15 Ka taminaw ni na pahnim awh dawkvah, patopatang kaawm hoeh e meikaphawk koevah hmuitui a sawi awh. Hote ni vah ayan e lamkaruem a phen sak awh. Picai hoe e lamthung lam a dawn awh.
Kodwa abantu bami sebengikhohliwe; batshisela izithombe eziyize impepha, ezabenza bakhubeka ezindleleni zabo lasemikhondweni yasendulo. Zabenza bahamba ngezindledlana zeganga lasemigwaqweni engalungiswanga.
16 Amamae ram teh yungyoe panuikhai hanelah a ceitakhai awh teh, ka cet kaawm pueng ni kângairu teh a lûsaling sin awh.
Ilizwe labo lizatshabalaliswa, into yokuhlekwa usulu; bonke abadlula khona bazakwethuka banyikinye amakhanda abo.
17 Kanîtholae kahlî kathout patetlah tarannaw hmalah, peng kâkayei sak han. A yawthoenae hnin nah ka hmalah tho laipalah ka hnukkhu lah a kamlang takhai han telah ati.
Njengomoya ovela empumalanga, ngizabahlakaza phambi kwezitha zabo; ngizabafulathela ngibancitshe ubuso bami ngosuku lokuhlupheka kwabo.”
18 Ahnimouh ni tho awh, Jeremiah hah youk awh sei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, vaihmanaw koe e kâlawk kahmat mahoeh, profetnaw koe e lawk hai pout mahoeh, tho awh, pathoe awh sei, a lawk hai bang lah noutna pouh hanh sei, telah ati awh.
Bona bathi, “Wozani sicebe amacebo amabi ngoJeremiya; ngoba ukufundisa kwabaphristi umthetho akusoze kuphuthe, kumbe ukweluleka kwezihlakaniphi, loba ilizwi elivela kubaphrofethi. Ngakho wozani, simhlasele ngemilomo yethu singananzi lutho alutshoyo.”
19 Oe BAWIPA ka kong heh pouk haw, kai ka tarannaw e lawk hah na thai pouh haw.
Ake ungizwe, awu Thixo; ulalele okutshiwo yizitha zami!
20 Hnokahawihoehe hah, hnokahawi hoi pathung boimaw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka hring nahanelah tangkawm a tai awh. Ahnimouh koehoi ka lungkhueknae roum nahane hoi ahnimouh hanelah hawinae dei hanelah, na hmalah ouk ka kangdue e hah na pahnim pouh hanh.
Okuhle kuphindiselwa ngokubi na? Ikanti sebengimbele igodi. Khumbula ukuba ngema phambi kwakho ngabakhulumela ukuba ususe ulaka lwakho kubo.
21 A canaw hah takang kâhmo sak nateh, tahloi thakaawme kâhmo sak haw. A yunaw hah a due awh vaiteh lahmai la coung awh naseh, a napanaw hah lacik hoi dout awh naseh, karoung lahun e naw hai taran hmuen koe tahloi hoi thei e lah awm awh naseh.
Ngakho-ke abantwababo banikele endlaleni; ubaqhubele emandleni enkemba. Abafazi babo kabangabi labantwana njalo babe ngabafelokazi; amadoda abo kawabulawe, amajaha akhona abulawe ngenkemba empini.
22 Tarankatuknaw hah ahnimouh koe pouk laipalah na pha sak torei teh, a imthung dawk hoi khuika lawk kampaw naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, man hanelah na kâcai awh dawkvah, tangkom a tai awh teh, ka khok kâman nahanelah karap a patung awh.
Kakuzwakale ukukhala ezindlini zabo, lapho usulethe abahlaseli ukuba babajume, ngoba sebegebhe igodi ukuba bangithumbe njalo bathiya inyawo zami ngemijibila.
23 Oe BAWIPA kai thei hanelah a kâcai awh e hah na panue toe. Ahnimae yonnae hah yontha pouh hanh. Na hmaitung vah a payonnae naw hah kahmat sak hanh. Na hmalah kamlet sak nateh na lungkhueknae hnin na vah hottelah sak haw.
Kodwa uyawazi, wena Thixo, wonke amaqhinga abo okungibulala. Ungabathetheleli amacala abo loba ucitshe izono zabo phambi kobuso bakho. Kabachithwe phambi kwakho; bahlasele ngesikhathi sokuthukuthela kwakho.
