< Jeremiah 49 >

1 Of the people of Ammon. "Thus says Jehovah: 'Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Milcom possess Gad, and his people dwell in its cities?
Pamusoro paAmoni: Zvanzi naJehovha: “Ko, Israeri haana mwanakomana here? Haana vadyi venhaka here? Ko, zvino Moreki atorerei nhaka yaGadhi? Nemhaka yeiko vanhu vake vachigara mumaguta ayo?
2 Therefore look, the days come,' says Jehovah, 'that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the people of Ammon; and it shall become a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel possess those who possessed him,' says Jehovah.
Asi mazuva anouya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “andicharidza mhere yehondo pamusoro peRabha ravaAmoni; richaitwa murwi wamatongo, uye misha yakaripoteredza ichapiswa nomoto. Ipapo Israeri achadzinga vaya vakanga vamudzinga,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
3 'Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste; cry, you daughters of Rabbah, clothe yourself in sackcloth: lament, and run back and forth among the fences; for Milcom shall go into captivity, his priests and his officials together.
“Ungudza, iwe Heshibhoni, nokuti Ai raparadzwa! Ridzai mhere, imi vanogara muRabha! Pfekai masaga mucheme, mhanyai pano nekoko pakati porusvingo, nokuti Moreki achaenda kuutapwa, pamwe chete navaprista vake namachinda ake.
4 Why do you glory in the valleys, your flowing valley, backsliding daughter? You who trusted in her treasures, saying, "Who shall come to me?"
Unozvikudzireiko nemipata yako, kuzvikudza nemipata inobereka kwazvo? Haiwa mwanasikana wokusatendeka, unovimba nepfuma yako uchiti, ‘Ndiani acharwa neni?’
5 Look, I will bring a fear on you,' says Jehovah of hosts, 'from all who are around you; and you shall be driven out every man right forth, and there shall be none to gather together the fugitives.
Ndichauyisa kutya pamusoro pako kunobva kuna avo vakakupoteredza,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. “Mumwe nomumwe wenyu achadzingirwa kure, uye hakuna achaunganidza vatizi.
6 But afterward I will bring back the captivity of the people of Ammon,' says Jehovah."
“Asi shure kwaizvozvo, ndichadzosazve pfuma yavaAmoni,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
7 Of Edom. "Thus says Jehovah of hosts: 'Is wisdom no more in Teman? Is counsel perished from the prudent? Is their wisdom vanished?
Pamusoro peEdhomu: Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Ko, muTemani hamuchina uchenjeri here? Mano atsakatika here kuna vakangwara? Ko, uchenjeri hwavo hwaora here?
8 Flee, turn back, dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him, the time that I shall visit him.
Dzokai uye mutize, muwande mumapako akadzika, imi munogara muDhedhani, nokuti ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro paEsau, panguva yandinomuranga.
9 If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves by night, wouldn't they destroy until they had enough?
Kana vanononga mazambiringa vakasvika kwauri, havangasiyi mazambiringa mashoma here? Kana mbavha dzikasvika usiku, havangabi zvavanoda chete here?
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is destroyed, and his brothers, and his neighbors; and he is no more.
Asi ndichafukura Esau; ndichazarura nzvimbo dzake dzokuvanda, kuitira kuti akundikane kuzvivanza. Vana vake, nehama dzake navavakidzani vake vachafa, uye iye haachazovapozve.
11 Leave your fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let your widows trust in me.'
Siya nherera dzako; ini ndicharwira upenyu hwavo. Chirikadzi dzakowo dzichagona kuvimba neni.”
12 For thus says Jehovah: 'Look, they to whom it did not pertain to drink of the cup shall certainly drink; and are you he who shall altogether go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you shall surely drink.
Zvanzi naJehovha: “Kana avo vakanga vasingafaniri kunwa pamukombe vakodzera kuunwa, iwe ucharegereiko kurangwa? Haungaregi kurangwa, asi unofanira kunwa pamukombe wacho.
13 For I have sworn by myself,' says Jehovah, 'that Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all its cities shall be perpetual wastes.'"
Ndinopika neni ndimene,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “kuti Bhozira richava dongo nechinhu chinonyangadza, nechinhu chinotyisa, chinozvidzwa nechinotukwa; uye maguta aro ose achava matongo nokusingaperi.”
14 I have heard news from Jehovah, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, "Gather yourselves together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle."
Ndakanzwa shoko rakabva kuna Jehovha, richiti: Nhume yakatumwa kundudzi kunoti, “Unganai kuti murwe naro! Simukai murwe!”
15 "For, look, I have made you small among the nations, and despised among men.
“Zvino ndichakuita muduku pakati pendudzi, anozvidzwa pakati pavanhu.
16 As for your terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill: though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there," says Jehovah.
Kutyisa kwaunoita, nokuzvikudza kwomwoyo wako zvakunyengera, iwe unogara mumikaha yematombo, ugere panzvimbo dzakakwirira dzechikomo. Kunyange ukavaka dendere rako pakakwirira segondo, ndichakukoromora kubva ipapo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
17 "Edom shall become an astonishment: everyone who passes by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss at all its plagues.
“Edhomu richava chinhu chinotyisa, vose vachapfuura napo vachashamiswa, uye vachaseka nokuda kwamavanga aro ose.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities of it," says Jehovah, "no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man live in it.
Sokuparadzwa kwakaitwa Sodhomu neGomora, pamwe chete namaguta akanga akavakidzana nawo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “saka hakuna munhu achazogarako; hakuna munhu achagara mariri.
19 Look, he shall come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation: for I will suddenly make them run away from it; and whoever is chosen, him will I appoint over it: for who is like me? And who will appoint me a time? And who is the shepherd who will stand before me?
“Seshumba inobuda mumatenhere eJorodhani ichienda kumafuro akapfuma, ndichadzinga Edhomu kubva munyika yake pakarepo. Ndianiko akasarudzwa wandichagadza kuti aite izvi? Ndiani akafanana neni uye ndiani angakwikwidzane neni? Uye ndoupi mufudzi angamisidzana neni?”
20 Therefore hear the counsel of Jehovah, that he has taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they shall drag them away, the little ones of the flock; surely he shall make their habitation desolate over them.
Naizvozvo, inzwai zvakarongwa naJehovha pamusoro peEdhomu, zvaakafunga pamusoro peavo vagere muTemani: Achakwekweredza vaduku vemapoka; achaparadza chose mafuro avo nokuda kwavo.
21 The earth trembles at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea.
Nyika ichadedera nokuda kwomubvumo wokuwa kwavo; kuchema kwavo kuchanzwikwawo kusvikira kuGungwa Dzvuku.
22 Look, he shall come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah: and the heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs."
Tarirai gondo richabhururuka ndokudzika nesimba, rakatambanudza mapapiro aro pamusoro peBhozira. Pazuva iro mwoyo yemhare dzeEdhomu ichafanana nomwoyo womukadzi orwadziwa.
23 Of Damascus. "Hamath is confounded, and Arpad; for they have heard evil news, they are melted away: there is sorrow on the sea; it can't be quiet.
Pamusoro peDhamasiko: “Hamati neAripadhi avhundutswa, nokuti agamuchira mashoko akaipa. Aora mwoyo, atambudzika segungwa risina zororo.
24 Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized on her: anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
Dhamasiko harichina simba, rakatendeuka kuti ritize, kuvhunduka kukaribata; kugomera nokurwadziwa zvakaribata, kurwadziwa sekwomukadzi osununguka.
25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
Guta remukurumbira harina kusiyiwa seiko, iro guta randinofarira?
26 Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be brought to silence in that day," says Jehovah of hosts.
Zvirokwazvo majaya aro achawa mumigwagwa; varwi varo vose vachati mwiro pazuva iroro,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
27 "I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the palaces of Ben Hadad."
“Ndichatungidza moto kumasvingo eDhamasiko; uchaparadza nhare dzose dzaBheni-Hadhadhi.”
28 Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck. "Thus says Jehovah: 'Arise, go up to Kedar, and destroy the people of the east.'
Pamusoro peKedhari noumambo hweHazori, hwakarwiswa naNebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi: Zvanzi naJehovha: “Simukai, murwise Kedhari uye muparadze vanhu vokuMabvazuva.
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take; they shall carry away for themselves their curtains, and all their vessels, and their camels; and they shall cry to them, 'Terror on every side.'
Matende avo namapoka avo amakwai achatorwa; matumba avo achatorwa achiendwa nawo, nemidziyo yavo yose nengamera. Vanhu vachadanidzira kwavari vachiti, ‘Zvinhu zviri kutyisa kumativi ose!’
30 Flee, wander far off, dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor," says Jehovah; "for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, and has conceived a purpose against you."
“Tizirai kure nokukurumidza! Garai mumapako akadzika, imi vagari vomuHazari,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Nebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi aita zvakaipa pamusoro penyu; aronga zano pamusoro penyu.
31 "Arise, go up to a nation that is at ease, that dwells without care, says Jehovah; that have neither gates nor bars, that dwell alone.
“Simukai mundorwisa rudzi rwakazvigarira zvarwo, rugere zvarwo rusina hanya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “irwo rudzi rusina masuo kana mazariro; vanhu varwo vanogara voga zvavo.
32 Their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their livestock a spoil: and I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them," says Jehovah.
Ngamera dzavo dzichapambwa, uye mombe dzavo dzakawanda dzichapambwa. Ndichaparadzira kumhepo avo vari kunyika dzokure, uye ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pavo kubva kumativi ose,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
33 "Hazor shall be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever: no man shall dwell there, neither shall any son of man live in it."
“Hazori richava ugaro hwamakava, dongo nokusingaperi. Hapana achagarako; hakuna munhu achagara mariri.”
34 The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
Iri ndiro shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Jeremia muprofita pamusoro peEramu, pakutanga kwokubata ushe kwaZedhekia mambo weJudha, richiti:
35 "Thus says Jehovah of hosts: 'Look, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Tarirai, ndichavhuna uta hweEramu, iwo musimboti wesimba ravo.
36 On Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of the sky, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation where the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
Ndichauyisa pamusoro paEramu mhepo ina, kubva kumativi mana ematenga; ndichavaparadzira kumhepo ina uye hakungavi norudzi rumwe kusingaendwi navavakidzani veEramu.
37 I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those who seek their life; and I will bring evil on them, even my fierce anger,' says Jehovah; 'and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them;
Ndichapwanya Eramu pamberi pavavengi vavo, pamberi paivo vanotsvaka kuvauraya; ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pavo, iko kutsamwa kwangu kunotyisa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Ndichavatevera nomunondo kusvikira ndavapedza.
38 and I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there king and officials,' says Jehovah.
Ndichaisa chigaro changu choushe muEramu uye ndichaparadza mambo wayo namachinda ayo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
39 'But it shall happen in the latter days, that I will bring back the captivity of Elam,' says Jehovah."
“Asi ndichadzosa nhaka yeEramu mumazuva okupedzisira,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
