< Yeremia 6 >
1 “Misi yi sitsoƒe, mi Benyaminviwo! Misi tso Yerusalem! Miku kpẽ le Tekoa! Mitu aflaga ɖe Bet Hakerem! Elabena gbegblẽ kple tsɔtsrɔ̃ dziŋɔ aɖe zɔ tso anyiehe gbɔna.
“Balekani ukuze liphephe, bantu bakoBhenjamini! Balekani eJerusalema! Tshayani icilongo eThekhowa! Phakamisani uphawu phezu kweBhethi-Hakheremi. Ngoba umonakalo uyabonakala ngasenyakatho, kanye lencithakalo eyesabekayo.
2 Magblẽ Zion vinyɔnu si dze tugbe nyuie hele wusewuse la dome.
Indodakazi yaseZiyoni enhle kangaka lebucayi ngizayibhubhisa.
3 Alẽkplɔlawo kple woƒe alẽhawo atso ɖe eŋuti, woava tu woƒe agbadɔwo aƒo xlãe, ɖe sia ɖe axɔ teƒe si wòanyi eƒe lãhawo le.”
Abelusi lemihlambi yabo bazakuza bamelane layo; bazamisa amathente abo eyihanqile, lowo lalowo elinde indawo yakhe.”
4 “Midzra ɖo, miawɔ aʋa kplii! Mitso, mina míadze aʋa le ŋdɔ me, gake ao, ŋkeke le bubum eye ɣetrɔ ƒe vɔvɔli le ɖiɖim ɖe edzi.
“Lungelani ukulwa layo! Vukani, kasihlaseleni emini! Kodwa, habe, ukukhanya sekufiphala, lamathunzi okuhlwa asesiba made.
5 Eya ta mitso ne míadze aʋa le zã me ne miagbã eƒe mɔ sesẽwo!”
Ngakho vukani, kasihlaseleni ebusuku sidilize izinqaba zayo!”
6 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: “Milã atiawo, eye miaƒu kpo ɖe Yerusalem ŋu. Ele be woahe to na du sia elabena eyɔ fũu kple ŋutasesẽ.
UThixo uSomandla uthi: “Gamulani izihlahla liziwise lakhe imiduli yokuvimbezela iJerusalema. Idolobho leli kumele lijeziswe, ligcwele ukuncindezela.
7 Abe ale si vudo dzia tsii ene la, nenema eƒe vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi le dzidzimii. Nu vlo wɔwɔ kple ŋutasesẽ bɔ ɖe eme. Eƒe dɔléle kple abiwo le nye ŋkume ɖaa.
Njengomthombo ugobhoza amanzi awo, ngokunjalo lalo ligobhoza ububi balo. Udlakela lokubhubhisa kuyezwakala phakathi kwalo, umkhuhlane walo lamanxeba ngihlezi ngikukhangele.
8 Oo, Yerusalem, se nyagbename, ne menye nenema o la, matrɔ adzo le gbɔwò, eye mawɔ wò anyigba wòazu gbegbe, ale be ame aɖeke mate ŋu anɔ edzi o.”
Xwayiseka, we Jerusalema, hlezi ngikutshiye, lelizwe lakho ngilichithe, kungabi lomuntu ohlala kulo.”
9 Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, gblɔe nye si, “Mina ne woaxa Israel ƒe ame susɔeawo abe ale si woxaa waintsetse le kawo ŋu ƒiaƒiaƒiae ene. Gatsɔ wò asiwo lili kawo ŋu abe ame si le wain gbem la ene.”
UThixo uSomandla uthi: “Kababuthe izinsalela zako-Israyeli ngokupheleleyo njengevini, dlulisa futhi isandla sakho phezu kwezingatsha, njengomuntu ovuna amavini.”
10 Ame ka maƒo nu na, eye mana nuxɔxlɔ̃e? Ame ka aɖo tom? Woƒe towo xe, eya ta womate ŋu ase nu o. Yehowa ƒe nya vea dɔ me na wo eye womedinɛ be yewoase o.
Ngubani engingakhuluma laye ngimxwayise na? Ngubani ozangilalela na? Indlebe zabo zivalekile ngakho abangeke bezwe. Ilizwi likaThixo liyisinengiso kubo. Kabafumani ntokozo kulo.
11 Ke Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ la yɔm fũu eye nyemate ŋu atu nu ɖe enu o. “Trɔe kɔ ɖe ɖevi siwo le mɔtata dzi kple ɖekakpui siwo ƒo ta kpli la dzi, akɔ ɖe srɔ̃ŋutsu kple srɔ̃nyɔnu siaa dzi. Nenema kee wòanɔ na ametsitsi siwo do dɔgɔ̃e le ƒe geɖe xɔxɔ ta.
Kodwa mina ngiyafuthelana ngolaka lukaThixo, ngingeke ngibe ngisalugodla ngaphakathi. “Lwehlisele phezu kwabantwana emgwaqweni laphezu kwamajaha abuthene ndawonye, bobabili indoda lomkayo luzabehlela, kanye labadala, labo abakhulelwa yiminyaka.
12 Woatsɔ woƒe aƒewo ana ame bubuwo hekpe ɖe woƒe agblewo kple wo srɔ̃nyɔnuwo ŋu, ne medo nye asi ɖa ɖe ame siwo le anyigba dzi la ŋuti.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Izindlu zabo zizanikwa abanye, konke lamasimu abo kanye labafazi babo, lapho ngiselula isandla sami ngimelana lalabo abahlala elizweni,” kutsho uThixo.
13 “Elabena wo katã wonye ŋuklẽlawo ɖe viɖe ŋuti, tso ɖeviwo dzi va se ɖe tsitsiawo dzi, nyagblɔɖilawo kple nunɔlawo siaa nye alakpatɔwo.
“Kusukela kwabancane kusiya kwabakhulu, bonke bayizihwaba ezifuna inzuzo, banjalo abaphrofethi kanye labaphristi, bonke benza inkohliso.
14 Wobla abi na nye dukɔ abe ɖe menye abi gã aɖeke wònye o ene. Wole gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Ŋutifafa, ŋutifafa.’ Evɔ la, ŋutifafa aɖeke meli hafi o.
Babopha inxeba labantu bami kungathi kalilibi kakhulu. Bathi, ‘Ukuthula, ukuthula,’ khona ukuthula kungekho.
15 Ɖe woƒe ŋunyɔnu siwo wɔm wole la, le ŋu kpem na woa? Ao, ŋukpe ɖeka pɛ hã mele mo na wo o, eye womenya ale si woƒe mo natsi dãae gɔ̃ hã o. Eya ta woatsi aʋatsilawo dome. Ne mele to hem na wo la, woaƒo wo aƒu anyi.” Yehowae gblɔe.
Bayayangeka na ngokuziphatha kwabo okwenyanyekayo? Hatshi, bavele kabalazo inhloni lokuyangeka kabakwazi. Ngakho bazawela phakathi kwabawileyo, bazakwehliselwa phansi lapho sengibajezisa,” kutsho uThixo.
16 Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Mitsi tsitre ɖe mɔdogoeƒewo ne miaɖo ŋku anyi akpɔ nu. Mibia blemamɔwo ta se, mibia afi si mɔ nyuitɔ le ne miazɔ edzi, eye miaƒe luʋɔwo akpɔ gbɔɖeme. Gake miegblɔ be, ‘Miazɔ le edzi o.’
UThixo, uthi: “Manini emahlanganweni emigwaqo likhangele, libuze izindledlana ezindala, libuze lapho okulendlela enhle khona, lihambe ngayo, lizathola ukuphumula kwemiphefumulo yenu. Kodwa lina lithe, ‘Kasiyikuhamba ngayo.’
17 Meɖo gbetakpɔlawo na mi hegblɔ na mi be, ‘Miɖo to kpẽ la ƒe ɖiɖi!’ Gake miegblɔ be, ‘Míaɖo to o.’
Ngalibekela abantu bokulilinda ngathi, ‘Lalelani ukukhala kwecilongo!’ Kodwa lina lathi, ‘Kasiyikulalela.’
18 Eya ta miesee o. Oo, mi dukɔwo, Oo ɖasefowo, milé ŋku ɖe nu si ava dzɔ ɖe wo dzi la ŋu.
Ngakho zwanini, lina zizwe, khangelani, lina elingofakazi, libone okuzakwenzakala kubo.
19 Oo, anyigba, see. Mele gbegblẽ he ge va dukɔ sia dzi, esia nye woƒe tameɖoɖowo ƒe metsonu, elabena womeɖo to nye nyawo o, eye wogbe nye se dzi wɔwɔ.
Zwana, wena mhlaba, ngiletha umonakalo phezu kwabantu laba, izithelo zamaqhinga abo, ngoba kabawalalelanga amazwi ami njalo bawalile lomthetho wami.
20 Nu ka dzudzɔʋeʋĩdonu si tso Seba nye nam alo gbeʋeʋĩ si tso didiƒenyigba dzi la awɔ nam? Miaƒe numevɔsawo medze ŋunye o eye miaƒe akpedavɔsawo medo dzidzɔ nam o.”
Ngilani lempepha yaseShebha loba imfe evela elizweni elikude na? Iminikelo yenu yokutshiswa kayamukeleki, imihlatshelo yenu kayingithokozisi.”
21 Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Kpɔ ɖa, matsɔ nukikliwo ada ɖe dukɔ sia ŋgɔ. Fofowo kple viŋutsuwo siaa akli wo adze anyi eye aƒelikawo kple xɔlɔ̃wo hã atsrɔ̃.”
Ngakho uThixo uthi: “Ngizabeka imigoqo phambi kwalababantu. Abazali labantwana bazakhubeka kuyo, omakhelwane labangane bazabhubha.”
22 Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye si, “Kpɔ ɖa asrafoha gã aɖe tso anyiehenyigba dzi gbɔna. Wonye dukɔ xɔŋkɔ aɖe tso anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke.
UThixo uthi: “Khangelani, ibutho liyeza livela elizweni lasenyakatho, isizwe esikhulu siyadungwa kusukela emikhawulweni yomhlaba.
23 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, Zion vinyɔnu.
Bahlome ngamadandili langemikhonto, balesihluku kabalasihawu. Bezwakala njengolwandle oluhlokomayo lapho begade amabhiza abo, beza njengabantu abalungele impi ukuba bakuhlasele, wena Ndodakazi yaseZiyoni.”
24 “Míese nutsotso geɖe tso wo ŋu eya ta míaƒe alɔwo ku ɖe mia ŋu. Ŋɔdzi lé mí eye míese veve abe nyɔnu si le ku lém la ene.
Sesizwe imibiko ngabo, njalo izandla zethu zilenga zingelamandla. Usizi lusibambile, ubuhlungu obunjengowesifazane ohelelwayo.
25 Migado yi ɖe agble alo azɔ le mɔtatawo dzi o, elabena yi le futɔ la si eye ŋɔdzi ƒo xlã mi kpe ɖo.
Lingayi phandle egangeni, loba lihambe emigwaqweni, ngoba isitha silenkemba, njalo silencithakalo emaceleni wonke.
26 Oo, nye dukɔ, mita akpanya, miamli le dzofi me. Fa konyi vevie kple ɣli abe ame si viŋutsu ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ ku na la ene, elabena nugblẽla la ava ƒo ɖe mía dzi zi ɖeka kpoyi!
Awu bantu bami, gqokani amasaka, lizibhuqe emlotheni, khalani lilile kabuhlungu njengokwendodana eyiyo yodwa, ngoba masinyane nje umchithi uzafika kithi.
27 “Metsɔ wò ɖo galolõlae eye nye dukɔe nye ga si lolõ ge woala, be nànya, eye nàdo woƒe mɔwo kpɔ.
“Ngikwenze umhloli wezinsimbi labantu bami babayilitshe elixubene lensimbi ukuba ukhangele ubone ube usuhlola izindlela zabo.
28 Wo katã nye aglãdzela vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖiwo. Wole tsatsam be woagblẽ ame ŋu. Wole abe akɔbli kple gayibɔ ene. Ame dovowoe wo katã wonye.
Bonke bangabahlamuki abalukhuni, abahamba behleba. Balithusi lensimbi, bonke benza ukuxhwala.
29 Wole ʋu yɔm kple ŋusẽ be woafia nu manyomanyo la le gadzẽ la me, gake wowɔe ʋuu do kpoe. Elabena womayɔ ʋu ɖe ame vɔ̃ɖi te wòatrɔ o.
Imvutho ivutha okwesabekayo incibilikisa umnusu ngokutshisa komlilo kodwa ukucenga kuqhubeka kuyize, ababi kabakhutshwanga.
30 Woyɔa wo be klosalo si wogbe, elabena Yehowa gbe nu le wo gbɔ.”
Kuthiwa bayisiliva esilahliweyo, ngoba uThixo usebalahlile.”
