Jeremiah 27
1 In the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying,
Zedekiya mwana wa Yosiya, mfumu ya ku Yuda, atangoyamba kulamulira, Yehova anawuza Yeremiya kuti,
2 "Thus says YHWH to me: Make bonds and bars, and put them on your neck;
“Tenga zingwe zomangira ndi mitengo ya goli ndipo uzimangirire mʼkhosi mwako.
3 and send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the people of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah;
Tsono utumize uthenga kwa mafumu a Edomu, Mowabu, Amoni, Turo ndi Sidoni kudzera mwa amithenga amene abwera ku Yerusalemu kwa Zedekiya, mfumu ya Yuda.
4 and give them a command to their masters, saying, 'Thus says YHWH of hosts, the God of Israel, You shall tell your masters:
Uwapatse uthenga wokapereka kwa ambuye awo ndipo uwawuze kuti: Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Mukawuze ambuye anu kuti:
5 "I have made the earth, the men and the animals that are on the surface of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm; and I give it to whom it seems right to me.
Ndi mphamvu zanga ndi dzanja langa lamphamvu ndinalenga dziko lapansi ndi anthu ake onse pamodzi ndi nyama zili mʼmenemo, ndipo ndimalipereka kwa aliyense amene ndikufuna.
6 Now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the animals of the field also have I given him to serve him.
Tsopano ndidzapereka mayiko anu onse kwa mtumiki wanga Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni. Ndamupatsanso nyama zakuthengo zonse kuti zimutumikire.
7 All the nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's son, until the time of his own land come: and then many nations and great kings shall make him their bondservant.
Anthu a mitundu yonse adzamutumikira iyeyo, mwana wake ndi chidzukulu chake mpaka nthawi itakwana yoti dziko lake liwonongedwe. Pamenepo mitundu yambiri ndi mafumu amphamvu adzamugonjetsa.
8 It shall happen, that the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, says YHWH, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
“‘Koma ngati anthu a mtundu wina uliwonse kapena ufumu wina uliwonse adzakana kutumikira Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni kapena kusenza goli lake, Ine ndidzalanga mtundu umenewo ndi lupanga, ndi njala ndi mliri, akutero Yehova, mpaka nditawapereka mʼmanja mwake kotheratu.
9 But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreams, nor to your soothsayers, nor to your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, 'You shall not serve the king of Babylon':
Choncho musamvere aneneri anu, owombeza anu, otanthauza maloto anu, amawula anu kapena amatsenga anu akamakuwuzani kuti, ‘Simudzatumikira mfumu ya ku Babuloni.’
10 for they prophesy a lie to you, to remove you far from your land, and that I should drive you out, and you should perish.
Iwo akukuloserani zabodza kotero kuti adani adzakuchotsani mʼdziko lanu nʼkupita nanu ku dziko lakutali. Ndidzakupirikitsani ndi kukuwonongani kotheratu.
11 But the nation that shall bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, that nation will I let remain in their own land, says YHWH; and they shall till it, and dwell in it."'"
Koma ngati mtundu wina uliwonse udzagonjera mfumu ya ku Babuloni ndi kuyitumukira, ndidzawusiya kuti ukhale mʼdziko lake kuti uzilima ndi kukhalamo, akutero Yehova.’”
12 I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, "Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
Uthenga womwewu ndinawuzanso Hezekiya mfumu ya Yuda. Ndinati, “Gonjerani mfumu ya ku Babuloni. Itumikireni iyoyo pamodzi ndi anthu ake ndipo mudzakhala ndi moyo.
13 Why will you die, you and your people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as YHWH has spoken concerning the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
Nanga inu ndi anthu anu, muferenji ndi lupanga, ndi njala, ndi mliri, zimene Yehova waopsezera mtundu wina uliwonse umene sudzatumikira mfumu ya ku Babuloni?
14 Do not listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, 'You shall not serve the king of Babylon'; for they prophesy a lie to you.
Musamvere mawu a aneneri akamakuwuzani kuti, ‘Simudzatumikira mfumu ya ku Babuloni,’ chifukwa zimene akukuloseranizo nʼzabodza.
15 'For I have not sent them,' says YHWH, 'but they prophesy falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that you may perish, you, and the prophets who prophesy to you.'"
Sindinawatume ngakhale iwo akulosera mʼdzina langa. Nʼchifukwa chake, ndidzakupirikitsani ndipo mudzawonongeka kotheratu, inu pamodzi ndi aneneri amene akunenera zabodza kwa inu.”
16 Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, "Thus says YHWH: 'Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, Look, the vessels of YHWH's house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon; for they prophesy a lie to you.
Kenaka ndinawuza ansembe pamodzi ndi anthu ena onse kuti, “Yehova akuti: Musamvere aneneri amene akumanena kuti, ‘Posachedwapa ziwiya za mʼNyumba ya Yehova zibwera kuchokera ku Babuloni.’ Iwowo akunenera zabodza kwa inu.
17 Do not listen to them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: why should this city become a desolation?'
Musawamvere. Tumikirani mfumu ya ku Babuloni, ndipo mudzakhala ndi moyo. Mzindawu usandukirenji bwinja?
18 But if they are prophets and if the word of YHWH is with them, let them now make intercession with YHWH of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of YHWH, and in the house of the king of Judah and at Jerusalem may not go to Babylon.
Ngati iwo ndi aneneri ndipo ali ndi mawu a Yehova, apempheretu kwa Yehova Wamphamvuzonse kuti ziwiya zimene zatsala mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndi mʼnyumba ya mfumu ya Yuda ndiponso mu Yerusalemu zisatengedwe kupita ku Babuloni.
19 For thus says YHWH of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left in this city,
Pakuti Yehova akunena za zipilala, za mbiya ya madzi, maphaka ndi ziwiya zina zimene zatsala mu Yerusalemu.
20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take, when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem;
Izi ndi zimene Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni sanatenge pamene anatenga ukapolo Yekoniya mwana wa Yehoyakimu mfumu ya Yuda kupita ku Babuloni kuchokera ku Yerusalemu, pamodzi ndi anthu olemekezeka a ku Yuda ndi a ku Yerusalemu.
21 yes, thus says YHWH of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left in the house of YHWH, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem:
Inde, Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli, akunena za zinthu zimene zinatsala mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndi mʼnyumba ya mfumu ya Yuda ndi mu Yerusalemu kuti,
22 'They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be, until the day that I visit them,' says YHWH; 'then will I bring them up, and restore them to this place.'"
‘Zidzatengedwa kupita ku Babuloni ndipo zidzakhala kumeneko mpaka tsiku limene ndidzawakumbukirenso,’ akutero Yehova. ‘Pamenepo ndidzazitenganso ndi kuzibwezanso ku malo ano.’”
