Jeremiah 33
1 Moreover the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still locked up in the court of the guard, saying,
Yeremiya akanali mʼndende mʼbwalo la alonda, Yehova anayankhula nayenso kachiwiri nati:
2 “The LORD who does it, the LORD who forms it to establish it—the LORD is his name, says:
“Yehova amene analenga dziko lapansi, kuliwumba ndi kulikhazikitsa; amene dzina lake ndi Yehova, akuti,
3 ‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know.’
‘Unditame mopemba ndipo ndidzakuyankha. Ndidzakuwuza zinsinsi zazikulu zimene suzidziwa.’
4 For the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defence against the mounds and against the sword:
Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akunenapo pa za nyumba za mu mzinda muno ndiponso pa za nyumba za mafumu a Yuda. Zidzagwetsedwa, ndipo palibe chifukwa cholimbana ndi mitumbira ya nkhondo ya Ababuloni.
5 ‘While men come to fight with the Kasdim, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have killed in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidden my face from this city,
Ababuloni akubwera kudzawuthira nkhondo mzindawu ndipo nyumba zake zidzadzaza ndi mitembo ya anthu amene ndidzawapha mokwiya ndi mwaukali. Ndawufulatira mzinda uno chifukwa cha zoyipa zake zonse.
6 behold, I will bring it health and healing, and I will cure them; and I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
“‘Pambuyo pake mzindawu ndidzawupatsanso moyo ndi kuwuchiritsa; ndidzachiritsa anthu anga ndi kuwapatsa chitetezo ndi mtendere weniweni.
7 I will restore the fortunes of Judah and Israel, and will build them as at the first.
Ndidzawakhazikanso Ayuda ndi Aisraeli ku dziko lawo, ndipo ndidzawabwezera monga mmene analili poyamba.
8 I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me and by which they have transgressed against me.
Ndidzawayeretsa pochotsa zoyipa zonse zimene anandichitira, ndiponso ndidzawakhululukira machimo onse amene anachita pondiwukira.
9 This city will be to me for a name of joy, for praise, and for glory, before all the nations of the earth, which will hear all the good that I do to them, and will fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I provide to it.’”
Mzinda wa Yerusalemu udzandipatsa chimwemwe, chiyamiko ndi ulemerero. Anthu a mitundu yonse adzanditamanda akadzamva za zabwino zonse zimene ndawuchitira mzindawu. Iwo adzachita mantha ndi kunjenjemera poona madalitso ochuluka ndi mtendere zimene ndapereka kwa mzinda umenewu.’
10 The LORD says: “Yet again there will be heard in this place, about which you say, ‘It is waste, without man and without animal, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without animal,’
“Yehova akuti, ‘Inu mumanena za malo ano kuti ndi bwinja,’ malo opandamo anthu kapena nyama. Komatu mizinda ya Yuda ndi mʼmisewu ya mu Yerusalemu mʼmene tsopano muli zii mudzamvekanso
11 the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good, for his loving kindness endures forever;’ who bring thanksgiving into the LORD’s house. For I will cause the captivity of the land to be reversed as at the first,” says the LORD.
mfuwu wachimwemwe ndi mawu achisangalalo, mawu a mkwatibwi ndi mkwati. Mʼnyumba ya Mulungu mudzamvekanso nyimbo za anthu amene akudzapereka nsembe zothokoza Yehova. Azidzati, “Yamikani Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, popeza Iye ndi wabwino; pakuti chifundo chake nʼchamuyaya.” Pakuti ndidzabwezeretsa zinthu zabwino za dziko lino monga zinalili poyamba, akutero Yehova.
12 The LORD of Hosts says: “Yet again there will be in this place, which is waste, without man and without animal, and in all its cities, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
“Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, ‘Malo ano, a chipululu ndi wopanda anthu kapena nyama, mʼmizinda yake yonse mudzakhala msipu umene abusa adzadyetserako nkhosa zawo.
13 In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, in the cities of the South, in the land of Benjamin, in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of him who counts them,” says the LORD.
Ku mizinda ya kumapiri, ya kuchigwa, ya ku Negevi, ya ku dera la Benjamini, ku dziko lozungulira Yerusalemu, ndi ku mizinda ya Yuda, nkhosa zidzadutsanso pamaso pa munthu woziwerenga,’ akutero Yehova.
14 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
“‘Taonani masiku akubwera,’ akutero Yehova, ‘pamene ndidzachitadi zokoma zimene ndinalonjeza Aisraeli ndi nyumba ya Yuda.
15 “In those days and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David. He will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
“‘Mʼmasiku amenewo ndi pa nthawi imeneyo ndidzaphukitsa Nthambi yolungama kuchokera ku banja la Davide; munthuyo adzachita zolungama ndi zabwino mʼdziko.
16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell safely. This is the name by which she will be called: The LORD our righteousness.”
Mʼmasiku amenewo Yuda adzapulumuka ndipo Yerusalemu adzakhala mwamtendere. Dzina limene mzindawu udzadziwike nalo ndi ili: Yehova Chilungamo Chathu.’
17 For the LORD says: “David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel.
Yehova akunena kuti, ‘Davide sadzasowa mdzukulu wolowa mʼmalo mwake pa mpando waufumu wa Israeli,
18 The Levitical priests won’t lack a man before me to offer burnt offerings, to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.”
ngakhale ansembe, amene ndi Alevi, sadzasowanso munthu woyima pamaso panga nthawi zonse wopereka nsembe zopsereza, nsembe zaufa ndi nsembe zina.’”
19 The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
Yehova anawuza Yeremiya kuti:
20 “The LORD says: ‘If you can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, so that there will not be day and night in their time,
Mawu anga ndi awa. Ine ndinachita pangano ndi usana ndi usiku kuti zizibwera pa nthawi yake. Pangano limeneli inu simungaliphwanye.
21 then my covenant could also be broken with David my servant, that he won’t have a son to reign on his throne; and with the Levitical priests, my ministers.
Ndinachitanso pangano ndi Davide, mtumiki wanga kuti nthawi zonse adzakhala ndi mdzukulu wodzakhala pa mpando wake waufumu. Ndinachitanso pangano ndi Alevi kuti iwonso adzanditumikira nthawi zonse. Mapangano amenewa sadzaphwanyidwa nthawi zonse.
22 As the army of the sky can’t be counted, and the sand of the sea can’t be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant and the Levites who minister to me.’”
Ndidzachulukitsa ngati nyenyezi zamlengalenga ndiponso ngati mchenga wa mʼmbali mwa nyanja zidzukulu za mtumiki wanga Davide ndiponso za Alevi amene amanditumikira Ine.
23 The LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, saying,
Yehova anafunsa Yeremiya kuti,
24 “Don’t consider what this people has spoken, saying, ‘Has the LORD cast off the two families which he chose?’ Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.”
“Kodi sunamve mmene anthu ena akumanenera kuti, ‘Yehova wakana maufumu awiriwa amene Iye anawasankha.’ Kotero anthuwo akunyoza anthu anga ndipo sakuwayesanso mtundu wa anthu.
25 The LORD says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
‘Koma Ine Yehova ndinachita pangano ndi usana ndi usiku. Ndinakhazikitsanso malamulo oyendetsa dziko lakumwamba ndi dziko lapansi,
26 then I will also cast away the offspring of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his offspring to be rulers over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to be reversed and will have mercy on them.”
monga ndachita zimenezi motsimikiza, choncho ndidzasunga pangano limene ndinachita ndi zidzukulu za Yakobo ndi Davide mtumiki wanga. Ndidzasankha mmodzi mwa ana a Davide kuti alamulire zidzukulu za Abrahamu, Isake ndi Yakobo. Komatu ndidzawamvera chifundo ndi kuwakhazikanso pabwino.’”
