< Jeremiah 33 >
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah a second time — and he [is] yet detained in the court of the prison — saying:
Yeremiya akanali mʼndende mʼbwalo la alonda, Yehova anayankhula nayenso kachiwiri nati:
2 Thus said Jehovah its maker, Jehovah its former, at establishing it, Jehovah [is] His name:
“Yehova amene analenga dziko lapansi, kuliwumba ndi kulikhazikitsa; amene dzina lake ndi Yehova, akuti,
3 Call unto Me, and I do answer thee, yea, I declare to thee great and fenced things — thou hast not known them.
‘Unditame mopemba ndipo ndidzakuyankha. Ndidzakuwuza zinsinsi zazikulu zimene suzidziwa.’
4 For thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, that are broken down for the mounts, and for the tool;
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 they are coming in to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the carcases of men, whom I have smitten in Mine anger, and in My fury, and [for] whom I have hidden My face from this city, because of all their evil:
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 Lo, I am increasing to it health and cure, And have healed them, and revealed to them The abundance of peace and truth.
“‘Pambuyo pake mzindawu ndidzawupatsanso moyo ndi kuwuchiritsa; ndidzachiritsa anthu anga ndi kuwapatsa chitetezo ndi mtendere weniweni.
7 And I have turned back the captivity of Judah, And the captivity of Israel, And I have built them as at the first,
Ndidzawakhazikanso Ayuda ndi Aisraeli ku dziko lawo, ndipo ndidzawabwezera monga mmene analili poyamba.
8 And cleansed them from all their iniquity, That they have sinned against Me, And I have pardoned all their iniquities, That they have sinned against Me, And that they transgressed against Me.
Ndidzawayeretsa pochotsa zoyipa zonse zimene anandichitira, ndiponso ndidzawakhululukira machimo onse amene anachita pondiwukira.
9 And it hath been to Me for a name of joy, For praise, and for beauty, to all nations of the earth, Who hear of all the good that I am doing them, And they have feared, And they have trembled for all the good, And for all the peace, that I am doing 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 Thus said Jehovah: Again heard in this place of which ye are saying, Waste it [is], without man and without beast, In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, That are desolated, without man, And without inhabitant, and without beast,
“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 Is a voice of joy and a voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, The voice of those saying, Thank Jehovah of Hosts, for Jehovah [is] good, For His kindness [is] to the age, Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of Jehovah, For I turn back the captivity of the land, As at the first, said Jehovah.
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 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Again there is in this place — that is waste, Without man and beast, And in all its cities — a habitation of shepherds, Causing the flock 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 low country, And in the cities of the south, And in the land of Benjamin, And in the suburbs of Jerusalem, And in the cities of Judah, Again doth the flock pass by under the hands of the numberer, said Jehovah.
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 Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have established the good word That I spake unto 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 cause to shoot up to David a shoot of righteousness, And he hath done judgment and righteousness in the earth.
“‘Mʼmasiku amenewo ndi pa nthawi imeneyo ndidzaphukitsa Nthambi yolungama kuchokera ku banja la Davide; munthuyo adzachita zolungama ndi zabwino mʼdziko.
16 In those days is Judah saved, And Jerusalem doth dwell confidently, And this [is] he whom Jehovah proclaimeth to her: 'Our Righteousness.'
Mʼmasiku amenewo Yuda adzapulumuka ndipo Yerusalemu adzakhala mwamtendere. Dzina limene mzindawu udzadziwike nalo ndi ili: Yehova Chilungamo Chathu.’
17 For thus said Jehovah: 'Not cut off to David is one sitting on the throne of the house of Israel,
Yehova akunena kuti, ‘Davide sadzasowa mdzukulu wolowa mʼmalo mwake pa mpando waufumu wa Israeli,
18 And to the priests — the Levites, Not cut off from before Me is one, Causing a burnt-offering to ascend, And perfuming a present, and making sacrifice — all the days.'
ngakhale ansembe, amene ndi Alevi, sadzasowanso munthu woyima pamaso panga nthawi zonse wopereka nsembe zopsereza, nsembe zaufa ndi nsembe zina.’”
19 And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying,
Yehova anawuza Yeremiya kuti:
20 'Thus said Jehovah: If ye do break My covenant of the day, And My covenant of the night, So that they are not daily and nightly in their season,
Mawu anga ndi awa. Ine ndinachita pangano ndi usana ndi usiku kuti zizibwera pa nthawi yake. Pangano limeneli inu simungaliphwanye.
21 Also My covenant is broken with David My servant, So that he hath not a son reigning on his throne, And with the Levites the 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 host of the heavens is not numbered, Nor the sand of the sea measured, So I multiply the seed of David My servant, And the Levites My ministers.'
Ndidzachulukitsa ngati nyenyezi zamlengalenga ndiponso ngati mchenga wa mʼmbali mwa nyanja zidzukulu za mtumiki wanga Davide ndiponso za Alevi amene amanditumikira Ine.
23 And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying:
Yehova anafunsa Yeremiya kuti,
24 'Hast thou not considered what this people have spoken, saying: The two families on which Jehovah fixed, He doth reject them, And my people they despise — So that they are no more a people 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 Thus said Jehovah: If My covenant [is] not daily and nightly, The statutes of heaven and earth I have not appointed —
‘Koma Ine Yehova ndinachita pangano ndi usana ndi usiku. Ndinakhazikitsanso malamulo oyendetsa dziko lakumwamba ndi dziko lapansi,
26 Also the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, I reject, Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I turn back [to] their captivity, and have pitied 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.’”
