< Jeremiah 47 >

1 Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah the prophet concerning [the] Philistines before he struck Pharaoh Gaza.
Iri ndiro shoko raJehovha rakasvika kumuprofita Jeremia pamusoro pavaFiristia, Faro asati arwisa Gaza:
2 Thus - he says Yahweh here! waters [are] rising from [the] north and they will become a torrent overflowing and they may overflow a land and what fills it a city and [those who] dwell in it and they will cry out everyone and he will wail every inhabitant of the land.
Zvanzi naJehovha: “Onai kukwira kunoita mvura zhinji yokumusoro; ivo vachava rwizi runofashukira nesimba. Vachafukidza nyika nezvose zviri mairi, maguta navose vanogaramo. Vanhu vachachema; vose vanogara munyika vachaungudza
3 From [the] sound of [the] stamping of [the] hooves of mighty [horses] its from [the] rattling of chariotry its [the] din of wheels its not they have turned back fathers to children from slackness of hands.
pavachanzwa mutsindo wemahwanda emabhiza, kutinhira kwengoro dzavavengi, nokurira kwemavhiri adzo. Madzibaba haangadzoki kuzobatsira vana vavo; maoko avo acharembera seakaremara.
4 On the day which is coming to devastate all [the] Philistines to cut off to Tyre and to Sidon every survivor helping for [is] about to devastate Yahweh [the] Philistines [the] remnant of [the] coastland of Caphtor.
Nokuti zuva rasvika rokuparadza vaFiristia vose, uye nokuuraya vose vakasara vaigona kubatsira Tire neSidhoni. Jehovha ava pedyo nokuparadza vaFiristia, vaya vakasara vanobva kumahombekombe eKafitori.
5 It will come baldness to Gaza it will be silent Ashkelon O remnant of valley their until when? will you cut yourself.
Gaza richaveura musoro waro mukuchema; Ashikeroni richati mwiro. Haiwa, imi vakasara vari pabani, muchapedza nguva yakadiiko muchizvicheka?
6 Alas! O sword of Yahweh until when? not you will be inactive gather yourself to sheath your rest and be still.
“Muchachema muchiti, ‘Maiwe, munondo waJehovha, uchapedza nguva yakadiiko usati wazorora? Dzokera mumuhara wako; mira, unyarare.’
7 How? will you be inactive and Yahweh he has commanded it against Ashkelon and against [the] coast of the sea there he has appointed it.
Asi ungazorora sei, Jehovha akaurayira, sezvo akaurayira kuti urwise Ashikeroni namahombekombe?”
