< Yeremia 50 >

1 Esia nye nya si Yehowa gblɔ to Nyagblɔɖila Yeremia dzi ku ɖe Babilonia kple Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba ŋuti:
Ilizwi iNkosi eyalikhuluma imelene leBhabhiloni, imelene lelizwe lamaKhaladiya, ngesandla sikaJeremiya umprofethi, lisithi:
2 “Miɖe gbeƒãe eye mido kpoe le dukɔwo dome, mikɔ aflaga dzi, ne miado bobloe; migagbe nya la katã gbɔgblɔ o, ke boŋ migblɔ be, ‘Woaxɔ Babilonia, ŋukpe alé Bel eye ŋɔdzi alé Marduk vevie. Woado ŋukpe eƒe legbawo eye ŋɔdzi alé eƒe aklamakpakpɛwo.’
Memezani phakathi kwezizwe, lizwakalise; misani uphawu, lizwakalise, lingakufihli, lithi: IBhabhiloni ithunjiwe, uBheli uyangekile, uMerodaki ubhidliziwe; izithombe zayo ziyangisiwe, imifanekiso yayo ibhidliziwe.
3 Dukɔ si tso anyiehe la ava dze edzi eye wòagblẽ eƒe anyigba keŋkeŋ. Ame aɖeke manɔ edzi o, amewo kple lãwo siaa asi adzo.”
Ngoba isizwe senyuka simelene layo esivela enyakatho, esizakwenza ilizwe layo libe lunxiwa, ukuze kungabi lomhlali kulo; kusukela emuntwini kusiya enyamazaneni kuyabaleka kuhambile.
4 Yehowa be, “Le ŋkeke mawo me, le ɣe ma ɣi me la, Israelviwo kple Yudatɔwo siaa awɔ ɖeka ava Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la gbɔ kple avi.
Ngalezonsuku langalesosikhathi, itsho iNkosi, abantwana bakoIsrayeli bazakuza, bona labantwana bakoJuda kanyekanye; behamba bekhala inyembezi, bazahamba, bedinga iNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo.
5 Woabia Zion ƒe mɔ ta ase eye woatrɔ woƒe mo ɖo ɖe egbɔ. Woava eye woabla nubabla mavɔ kple Yehowa, nubabla si womaŋlɔ be akpɔ o.
Bazabuza indlela eZiyoni, ubuso babo bukhangele ngakuyo; wozani, lizihlanganise leNkosi ngesivumelwano esiphakade esingayikukhohlakala.
6 “Nye dukɔ le abe alẽ tatrawo ene, woƒe kplɔlawoe kplɔ wo trae eye wona wole tsatsam le towo dzi. Wole tsaglãla tsam le towo kple togbɛwo dzi eye woŋlɔ woawo ŋutɔ ƒe nɔƒe be.
Abantu bami bebeyizimvu ezilahlekileyo; abelusi babo babaduhisile, bebaphendulela ezintabeni; bahamba besuka entabeni besiya eqaqeni, bakhohlwa indawo yabo yokulala.
7 Ame sia ame si ke ɖe wo ŋu la vuvua wo; woƒe futɔwo gblɔ be, ‘Míedze agɔ o, elabena wowɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa, woƒe lãnyiƒe vavã, kple Yehowa wo fofowo ƒe mɔkpɔkpɔ ŋuti?’
Bonke ababatholayo babadla, lezitha zabo zathi: Kasiyikuba lacala, ngenxa yokuthi bonile eNkosini, ikhaya lokulunga, ngitsho iNkosi, ithemba laboyise.
8 “Misi do go le Babilonia, midzo le Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi eye minɔ abe agbowo le alẽhawo ŋgɔ ene,
Balekani liphume phakathi kweBhabhiloni, liphume elizweni lamaKhaladiya, libe njengezimpongo phambi komhlambi.
9 elabena made adã ta me na dukɔ siwo le anyiehenyigba dzi ɖe Babilonia ŋu eye woawɔ ɖeka aho ɖe eŋu. Woava aƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe eŋu eye woava lée tso anyiehe gome. Woƒe aŋutrɔwo magbɔ ƒuƒlu o, elabena woanɔ abe ame siwo bi ɖe aʋawɔwɔ me la tɔwo ene.
Ngoba khangela, ngizavusa ngenze ukuthi kwenyukele eBhabhiloni ixuku lezizwe ezinkulu zivela elizweni lenyakatho, zizihlele zimelene layo; kusukela lapho zithunjwe; imitshoko yakhe njengeqhawe elilamandla kayiyikubuyela ize.
10 Ale Babilonia azu nuhaha eye ame siwo hae la akpɔ afunyinuwo fũu.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Njalo iKhaladiya izakuba yimpango; bonke abayiphangayo bazasutha, itsho iNkosi.
11 “Esi mi ame siwo nye avuzi le nye domenyinu dzi, kpɔ dzidzɔ, hetso aseye eye esi mieti kpo abe nyinɔvi si le bli nyɔm ene, hexlɔ̃ abe sɔtsuwo ene ta la,
Ngoba lalijabula, ngoba lathokoza, lina bachithi belifa lami, ngoba liqolotsha njengethokazi etshanini, likhonye njengamabhiza amaduna;
12 Ŋukpe gã aɖe ava mia dada dzi eye ame si dzi mi, woado vloe. Anye suetɔ le dukɔwo dome, azu gbegbe, kuɖiɖinyigba kple dzogbe.
unyoko ulenhloni kakhulu, owalizalayo uyangekile. Khangela, ingemuva yezizwe iyinkangala eyomileyo lelugwadule.
13 Le Yehowa ƒe dziku helĩhelĩ ta la, ame maganɔ eme o, ke boŋ azu aƒedo. Ame sia ame si to Babilonia ŋu yi la ƒe nu aku eye woaɖu fewu le woƒe abixɔxɔwo katã ta.
Ngenxa yolaka lweNkosi kayiyikuhlalwa, kodwa izakuba yincithakalo yonke; wonke owedlula eBhabhiloni uzamangala kakhulu, ancife ngenxa yazo zonke inhlupheko zayo.
14 “Mi ame siwo daa aŋutrɔ, midze aʋa ɖe Babilonia ŋu. Mida aŋutrɔe! Midae, ɖeke megasusɔ o, elabena ewɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa ŋu.
Zihleleleni ukumelana leBhabhiloni inhlangothi zonke, lina lonke eligobisa idandili, litshoke kuyo, lingagodli mtshoko, ngoba yonile eNkosini.
15 Miɖe to ɖee miado ɣli ɖe eta! Ena ta, eƒe gbetakpɔxɔwo mu dze anyi eye wogbã eƒe gliwo ƒu anyi. Esi wònye Yehowa ƒe hlɔ̃biabiae ta la, mibia hlɔ̃e; miwɔe nɛ abe ale si wòwɔe na ame bubuwo ene.
Memezani limelene layo inhlangothi zonke; isinike isandla sayo, izisekelo zayo ziwile, imiduli yayo idiliziwe; ngoba lokho kuyimpindiselo yeNkosi; phindiselani kuyo, lenze kuyo njengokwenza kwayo.
16 Mitsrɔ̃ nukuƒãla kple nuŋela kple eƒe nuŋehɛ siaa le Babilonia le nuŋeɣi. Le nugblẽla ƒe yi ta la, ame sia ame netrɔ yi eya ŋutɔ ƒe amewo gbɔ, eye ame sia ame nesi yi eya ŋutɔ ƒe anyigba dzi.
Qumani umhlanyeli asuke eBhabhiloni, laye ophatha isikela ngesikhathi sokuvuna; ngenxa yenkemba ecindezelayo bazaphenduka, ngulowo lalowo kwabakibo, babaleke, ngulowo lalowo elizweni lakibo.
17 “Israel nye alẽha si dzatawo ɖe ɖe nu, eye wokaka gbẽe. Ame gbãtɔ si vuvui lae nye Asiria fia ame mamlɛtɔ si gbã eƒe ƒuwo lae nye Babilonia fia Nebukadnezar.”
UIsrayeli uyimvu ehlakazekileyo; izilwane zimxotshile; kuqala inkosi yeAsiriya yamudla, emva kwalokho lo uNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni wephule amathambo akhe.
18 Eya ta ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: “Mahe to na Babilonia fia kple eƒe anyigba abe ale si mehe to na Asiria ene.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Khangela, ngizayijezisa inkosi yeBhabhiloni lelizwe layo, njengalokho ngayijezisa inkosi yeAsiriya.
19 Ke matrɔ Israel agbɔe va eya ŋutɔ ƒe gbe dama dzi, aɖu gbe le Karmel kple Basan eye akpɔ ƒoɖiɖi le Efraim kple Gilead togbɛwo dzi.”
Njalo ngizabuyisela uIsrayeli endaweni yakhe yokuhlala, njalo uzadlisa eKharmeli leBashani, lomphefumulo wakhe usuthe entabeni yakoEfrayimi leGileyadi.
20 Yehowa be, “Le ŋkeke mawo me, le ɣe ma ɣi me, woatsa, adi Israel ƒe agɔdzedze gake womakpɔ ɖeke o eye woadi Yuda ƒe nu vɔ̃wo gake womakpɔ ɖeke o, elabena matsɔe ake ame susɔe siwo megblẽ ɖi.”
Ngalezonsuku langalesosikhathi, itsho iNkosi, kuzadingwa ububi koIsrayeli, kodwa bungabi khona, lezono zikaJuda, kodwa zingatholwa; ngoba ngizabathethelela labo engibenza babe yinsali.
21 Yehowa be, “Wɔ avu kple Merataim kple ame siwo le Pekod. Ti wo yome, wu wo eye nàtsrɔ̃ wo keŋkeŋ. Wɔ nu siwo katã ƒe se mede na wò.
Umelene lelizwe leMerathayimi, yenyuka umelene layo, njalo umelene labahlali bePhekhodi; uchithe, utshabalalise emva kwabo, itsho iNkosi, wenze njengakho konke engikulaye khona.
22 Aʋaɣli le anyigba dzi, eye gbegblẽ gã si le edzi yim la ƒe hoowɔwɔ le ɖiɖim.
Umsindo wempi uselizweni, lokuchitheka okukhulu.
23 Aleke woŋe, eye wohekaka anyigba blibo la ƒe zu ale! Aleke Babilonia zu gbegbe le dukɔwo dome ale!
Yeka ukuganyulwa lokwephuka kwesando somhlaba wonke! Yeka ukwenziwa kweBhabhiloni unxiwa phakathi kwezizwe!
24 O Babilonia, metre mɔ na wò eye mɔ ɖe wò hafi nèva nya gɔ̃ hã. Woke ɖe ŋuwò eye wolé wò elabena ètsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ŋu.
Ngakuthiya ngomjibila, futhi lawe wathunjwa, Bhabhiloni, lawe wawungazi; watholwa, futhi wabanjwa, ngoba waphikisana leNkosi.
25 Yehowa ʋu eƒe aʋawɔnuwo ƒe ʋɔ eye wòɖe eƒe dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ ƒe aʋawɔnu do goe, elabena dɔ le Aƒetɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ŋu wòawɔ le Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi.
INkosi ivulile isiphala sayo, yakhupha izikhali zolaka lwayo, ngoba lokhu kungumsebenzi weNkosi uJehova wamabandla elizweni lamaKhaladiya.
26 Mitso adzɔge miava ƒo ɖe edzi. Migbã eƒe nuɖuɖudzraɖoƒewo, milɔe ƒo ƒu abe ale si wolia kɔ agblemenukuwo ene. Mitsrɔ̃e keŋkeŋ eye migasusɔ ame ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ hã ɖi o.
Wozani limelane layo livela ephethelweni, livule izibuya zayo, liyibuthelele njengezinqumbi, liyitshabalalise, ingabi lansali.
27 Miwu eƒe nyitsu viwo katã; mikplɔ wo yi lãwuƒee! Baba na wo! Elabena woƒe ŋkeke la ɖo, ɣeyiɣi la de na wo be woaxɔ tohehe.
Bulalani amajongosi ayo wonke, kawehlele ekuhlatshweni. Maye kuwo! Ngoba usuku lwawo lufikile, isikhathi sempindiselo yawo.
28 Miɖo to miase Babilonia ƒe aʋaléleawo kple aʋasilawo ƒe nya si gblɔm wole le Zion tso ale si Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la bia hlɔ̃ woe, ebia hlɔ̃ na eƒe gbedoxɔ.
Ilizwi lababalekayo labaphunyukayo bevela elizweni leBhabhiloni, ukuze bamemeze eZiyoni impindiselo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu, impindiselo yethempeli layo.
29 “Miyɔ aŋutrɔdalawo vɛ, ne woaɖe to ɖe Babilonia, ame siwo katã hea da me la neva. Miva ɖe to ɖee godoo va kpe, migana ame aɖeke nasi o. Mixe nu siwo katã wòwɔ la ƒe fe nɛ, miwɔe nɛ abe ale si eya hã wɔe na ame bubuwo ene. Elabena edze aglã ɖe Yehowa, Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la ŋu.
Bizani abatshoki bamelane leBhabhiloni, bonke abagobisa idandili, limise inkamba limelane layo inhlangothi zonke; kayingabi lokuphunyuka; liyiphindisele njengomsebenzi wayo, lenze kuyo njengakho konke ekwenzileyo; ngoba yenze ngokuziqhenya imelene leNkosi, imelene loNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
30 Eya ta eƒe ɖekakpuiwo aku akaka ɖe mɔtatawo dzi eye ɖoɖoe azi le eƒe asrafowo nu gbe ma gbe.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Ngakho amajaha ayo azakuwa ezitaladeni zayo, lawo wonke amadoda ayo empi azabhujiswa ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi.
31 Aƒetɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔ be, “Kpɔ ɖa, metso ɖe ŋutiwò, O dadala, elabena wò ŋkeke la va ɖo, wò toheɣi ɖo.
Khangela, ngimelana lawe, wena oziqhenyayo, itsho iNkosi uJehova wamabandla; ngoba usuku lwakho selufikile, isikhathi engizakuhambela ngaso.
32 Dadala la akli nu adze anyi eye ame aɖeke mafɔe ɖe tsitrenu o. Matɔ dzo eƒe duwo eye dzo la afia ame siwo katã ƒo xlãe la hã.”
Khona oziqhenyayo ezakhubeka awe, njalo kungekho ozamvusa; njalo ngizaphemba umlilo emizini yakhe ozakudla konke okumhanqileyo.
33 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, gblɔe nye esi: “Wote Israelviwo kple Yudatɔwo siaa ɖe anyi. Ame siwo katã ɖe aboyo wo la lé wo goŋgoŋ, eye wogbe asiɖeɖe le wo ŋu.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Babecindezelwe abantwana bakoIsrayeli labantwana bakoJuda ndawonye; njalo bonke ababathumbileyo babagagadlele; bala ukubayekela bahambe.
34 Evɔ la, woƒe Xɔnametɔ nye ŋusẽtɔ hafi, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔe nye eŋkɔ. Aʋli wo ta vevie, ale be wòana gbɔdzɔe woƒe anyigba, gake ana ame siwo katã le Babilonia la natsi dzimaɖi.”
Umhlengi wabo ulamandla, iNkosi yamabandla libizo layo; isibili izamela udaba lwabo, ukuze inike umhlaba ukuphumula, kodwa inyakazise abahlali beBhabhiloni.
35 Yehowa be, “Yi le Babiloniatɔwo yome! Etso ɖe ame siwo le Babilonia, woƒe dumegãwo kple woƒe nunyalawo ŋuti!
Inkemba iphezu kwamaKhaladiya, itsho iNkosi, laphezu kwabahlali beBhabhiloni, laphezu kweziphathamandla zayo, laphezu kwabahlakaniphileyo bayo.
36 Yi atso ɖe eƒe aʋatsonyagblɔɖilawo ŋu eye woazu bometsilawo. Yi ati woƒe kalẽtɔwo yome eye ŋɔdzi alé wo!
Inkemba iphezu kwabaqambimanga ukuze benze ngobuthutha; inkemba iphezu kwamaqhawe ayo ukuze adilizwe.
37 Yi atso ɖe eƒe sɔwo, tasiaɖamwo kple amedzro siwo katã wotsɔ aʋae la ŋuti eye woanɔ abe nyɔnuwo ene! Yi atso ɖe eƒe kesinɔnuwo ŋu eye woaha wo!
Inkemba iphezu kwamabhiza ayo, laphezu kwenqola zayo, laphezu kwayo yonke ingxube yexuku ephakathi kwayo, ukuze babe ngabesifazana; inkemba iphezu kokuligugu kwayo, ukuze kuphangwe.
38 Kuɖiɖi neto eƒe tɔsisiwo me, ne woamie ƒiaƒiaƒia, elabena enye anyigba si yɔ fũu kple legbawo, legba siwo adze aɖaʋa le ŋɔdzi ta.”
Imbalela iphezu kwamanzi ayo, ukuze ome, ngoba iyilizwe lezithombe ezibaziweyo; bayahlanya ngenxa yezithombe ezesabekayo.
39 Yehowa be, “Ava eme be lã wɔadãwo kple amegaxiwo anɔ afi ma, eye golowo hã atso aƒe ɖe afi ma. Maganye amenɔƒe alo amewo magatso aƒe ɖi akpɔ o, tso dzidzime yi dzidzime.
Ngakho izilo zenkangala lamakhanka kuzahlala khona, lamadodakazi ezintshe azahlala kuyo, kakusayikuhlala muntu kuyo kuze kube nininini, kakuyikwakhelwa kuyo esizukulwaneni kusiya esizukulwaneni.
40 Anɔ ko abe ale si metsrɔ̃ Sodom kple Gomora kple du siwo ƒo xlã wo lae ene, ale be ame aɖeke magatso aƒe ɖi o eye ame aɖeke manɔ afi ma hã o.”
Njengoba uNkulunkulu wagenqula iSodoma leGomora labomakhelwane bayo, itsho iNkosi, ngokunjalo kakuyikuhlala muntu khona, njalo kakulandodana yomuntu ezahlala njengowezizwe kuyo.
41 “Kpɔ ɖa! Aʋakɔ aɖe ho tso anyiehe gbɔna, wode adã ta me na dukɔ gã aɖe kple fia gbogbo aɖewo tso anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke gbɔna.
Khangela, abantu bazavela enyakatho, lesizwe esikhulu, lamakhosi amanengi azavuswa evela emikhawulweni yomhlaba.
42 Wogbɔna kple aŋutrɔ kple akplɔ. Woƒe ta me sẽ, eye womekpɔa nublanui o. Esi wole woƒe sɔwo dzi gbɔna la, woƒe hoowɔwɔ le abe atsiaƒue dze agbo ene. Wobla akpa abe ame siwo dze aʋa ɖi ene be woava akpe aʋa kpli wò, Oo, Babilonia vinyɔnu.
Bazabamba idandili lomkhonto; balesihluku, kabayikuba lomusa; ilizwi labo lizahlokoma njengolwandle, bagade amabhiza, ngulowo lalowo ehleliwe njengomuntu wempi emelene lawe, ndodakazi yeBhabhiloni.
43 Babilonia fia se nya tso wo ŋu xoxo eye eƒe lãme fa. Vɔvɔ̃ ɖoe eye wòse veve abe nyɔnu si le ku lém la ene.
Inkosi yeBhabhiloni izwile umbiko wabo, lezandla zayo zaba buthakathaka; ucindezelo lwayibamba, umhelo njengowobelethayo.
44 Abe dzata si do go tso Yɔdan ƒe ave dodo me, hege ɖe gbe dama nyui dzi ene la, nenema maɖe Babilonia ɖe nu tso eƒe anyigba dzi zi ɖeka kpoyi! Ame kae nye ame tiatia si madɔ wòawɔ esia? Ame kae le abe nye ene eye ame kae ate ŋu anɔ te ɖe nunye? Alẽkplɔla ka ate ŋu atsi tsitre ɖe ŋunye?”
Khangela, njengesilwane esivela ekukhukhumaleni kweJordani uzakwenyuka emelene lendawo yokuhlala okungapheliyo, kodwa ngizahle ngimgijimise asuke kuyo; njalo ngubani okhethiweyo engingammisa phezu kwayo? Ngoba ngubani onjengami? Ngubani-ke ozangibizela ukulandisa? Njalo nguwuphi lowomelusi ongema phambi kwami?
45 Eya ta se nu si Yehowa ɖo ɖe Babilonia ŋu kple nu si ƒe susu wòwɔ ɖi ɖe Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba ŋu: Woakplɔ lãha ƒe suetɔwo adzoe, agblẽ woƒe gbeɖuƒe keŋkeŋkeŋ le woƒe nuwɔwɔwo ta.
Ngakho, zwanini icebo leNKOSI elicebe imelene leBhabhiloni, lemicabango yayo eyicabange imelene lelizwe lamaKhaladiya: Isibili abancinyane bomhlambi bazabadonsa; isibili izachitha indawo yokuhlala phezu kwabo.
46 Babilonia xɔxɔ ƒe ɣli ana anyigba naʋuʋu, eye eƒe aviɣli aɖi le dukɔwo dome.
Ngomsindo wokuthunjwa kweBhabhiloni umhlaba uyazamazama, lokukhala kuzwakala phakathi kwezizwe.
