1 “Hĩ! Kaĩ arĩithi arĩa maniinaga na makahurunja mbũri cia rũũru rwakwa marĩ na haaro-ĩ!” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
“Vane nhamo vafudzi vari kuparadza uye vari kuparadzira makwai amafuro angu!” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli ekũũria arĩithi arĩa marĩithagia andũ akwa atĩrĩ: “Tondũ nĩmũhurunjĩte mbũri ciakwa na mũgaciingata, na nĩmwagĩte gũcimenyerera-rĩ, nĩngamũherithia nĩ ũndũ wa ũũru ũcio mwĩkĩte,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, kuvafudzi vanofudza vanhu vangu: “Nemhaka yokuti makaparadzira makwai angu mukaadzingira kure uye mukasava nehanya nawo, ndichaisa rushamhu pamusoro penyu nokuda kwezvakaipa zvamakaita,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
3 “Niĩ mwene nĩngacookereria matigari ma rũũru rwa mbũri ciakwa kuuma mabũrũri mothe marĩa ndaacitwarithirie, ndĩcicookie ũrĩithio-inĩ wacio, na nĩigaciaranĩra kuo, cingĩhe.
“Ini pachangu ndichaunganidza akasara amakwai angu kubva kunyika dzose dzandakanga ndaadzingira uye ndichaadzosera kumafuro awo, kwaachava nezvibereko uye kwaachawanda.
4 Nĩngacirehera arĩithi a gũcirĩithagia, na itigacooka gwĩtigĩra kana kũmaka, na gũtirĩ o na ĩmwe yacio ĩkoora,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Ndichagadza vafudzi pamusoro pavo vachaafudza, uye havazotyi kana kuvhunduka, uye hakuna rimwe rawo ringashayikwa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
5 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Matukũ nĩmarooka rĩrĩa ngaarahũrĩra Daudi mũndũ mũthingu ũgerekanĩtio na Rũhonge rwa mũtĩ, na nĩwe Mũthamaki ũrĩa ũgaathamakaga arĩ na ũũgĩ, na ageekaga maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire na ma kĩhooto bũrũri-inĩ.
“Mazuva achauya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “pandichamutsira Dhavhidhi Davi rakarurama, Mambo achatonga nouchenjeri nokururamisira uye nokuita zvakarurama munyika.
6 Matukũ-inĩ make-rĩ, Juda nĩakahonokio, nake Isiraeli atũũre arĩ mũgitĩre. Nake ageetagwo rĩĩtwa rĩrĩ: Jehova-Ũthingu-Witũ.”
Pamazuva ake Judha achaponeswa uye Israeri achagara norugare. Zita rake raachatumidzwa ndirori rokuti: Jehovha Ndiye Kururama Kwedu.
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Matukũ nĩmarooka, rĩrĩa andũ matagacooka kuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, ũrĩa warutire andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri,’
Naizvozvo zvino mazuva achauya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “avasingazoti, ‘NaJehovha mupenyu iye akabudisa vaIsraeri kubva muIjipiti,’
8 no makoigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ti-itherũ, o ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo, ũrĩa warutire njiaro cia Isiraeli bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ mwena wa gathigathini, na kuuma mabũrũri-inĩ mothe kũrĩa aamathaamĩirie.’ Hĩndĩ ĩyo magaatũũra bũrũri wao ene.”
asi vachazoti, ‘NaJehovha mupenyu, akabudisa vana vaIsraeri kubva kunyika yokumusoro nokunyika dzose kwaakanga avadzingira.’ Ipapo vachagara munyika yavo.”
9 Ũhoro ũkoniĩ anabii nĩ atĩrĩ: Ngoro yakwa nĩthuthĩku; mahĩndĩ makwa mothe nĩmarainaina. Haana ta mũndũ mũrĩĩu, ngahaana ta mũndũ mũtoorie nĩ ndibei, nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova, na nĩ ũndũ wa ndũmĩrĩri ciake theru.
Kana vari vaprofita: Mwoyo wangu waputsika mukati mangu; mapfupa angu ose anodedera. Ndakaita somunhu akadhakwa, somunhu akundwa newaini, nokuda kwaJehovha uye nokuda kwamashoko ake matsvene.
10 Bũrũri ũyũ ũiyũrĩte itharia; bũrũri ũyũ ũikarĩte ũrĩ mũngʼaru nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrumi, naguo ũrĩithio wothe kũu werũ-inĩ ũkahooha. Anabii marũmĩrĩire mĩtũũrĩre mĩũru, na makahũthĩra hinya wao ũrĩa gũtagĩrĩire.
Nyika izere nemhombwe; nyika yaoma nokuda kwokutukwa uye mafuro omugwenga aoma. Vaprofita votevera nzira yakaipa uye vanoshandisa simba ravo nokusarurama.
11 “Anabii na athĩnjĩri-Ngai matiĩtigagĩra Ngai; o na thĩinĩ wa hekarũ-inĩ yakwa, nĩndĩĩoneire waganu wao,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
“Muprofita nomuprista vose havana umwari; kunyange mutemberi yangu ndinowana kuipa kwavo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
12 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio njĩra yao nĩĩgũtuĩka ndenderũ; magaathaamĩrio nduma-inĩ, na kũu nĩkuo makaagũĩra. Nĩngamarehithĩria mwanangĩko mwaka-inĩ ũrĩa makaaherithio,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
“Naizvozvo nzira yavo ichatsvedza; vachadzingirwa kurima uye ikoko ndiko kwavachawira. Ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pavo mugore ravacharangwa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
13 “Thĩinĩ wa anabii a Samaria-rĩ, nĩndonire ũndũ ũrĩ magigi, naguo nĩ ũyũ: Maarathaga mohoro na rĩĩtwa rĩa Baali, nao makĩhĩtithia andũ akwa a Isiraeli.
“Pakati pavaprofita veSamaria ndakaona chinhu chinonyangadza ichi: Vakaprofita naBhaari, uye vakatungamirira vanhu vangu vaIsraeri mukurasika.
14 Ningĩ thĩinĩ wa anabii a Jerusalemu-rĩ, nĩnyonete ũndũ mũũru mũno, naguo nĩ ũyũ: Matharanagia, na magatũũra maheenanagia. Mekagĩra moko ma eeki naaĩ hinya, gũkaaga mũndũ ũngĩgarũrũka atigane na waganu wake. Othe mahaanĩte ta Sodomu harĩ niĩ; andũ a Jerusalemu mahaana o ta Gomora.”
Uye pakati pavaprofita veJerusarema ndakaona chimwe chinhu chinonyangadza: Vanoita upombwe uye vanoreva nhema. Vanosimbisa maoko evaiti vezvakaipa, zvokuti hakuna anodzoka pazvakaipa zvake. Vose vakaita seSodhomu kwandiri; vanhu veJerusarema vakaita seGomora.”
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ũhoro ũkoniĩ anabii acio, Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga ũũ: “Nĩngatũma marĩe irio ndũrũ na manyue maaĩ marĩ na thumu, nĩ ũndũ kuuma kũrĩ anabii a Jerusalemu, wagi wa gwĩtigĩra Ngai ũhunjĩte bũrũri-inĩ guothe.”
Naizvozvo, zvanzi naJehovha Mwari Wamasimba Ose, pamusoro pavaprofita: “Ndichaita kuti vadye kudya kunovava, uye kuti vanwe mvura ine muchetura, nokuti zvichibva nokumuprofita weJerusarema, kushaya umwari kwapararira panyika yose.”
16 Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga: “Mũtigathikĩrĩrie ũrĩa anabii acio maramũrathĩra; nĩ ciĩrĩgĩrĩro cia tũhũ mamũheaga. Maaragia ũhoro wa cioneki ciumĩte meciiria-inĩ mao ene, no ti kuuma kanua ka Jehova.
Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Regai kuteerera zvamunoprofitirwa navaprofita; vanokuzadzai netariro dzenhema. Vanotaura zviratidzo zvinobva pandangariro dzavo, zvisingabvi mumuromo maJehovha.
17 Mathiiaga na mbere na kwĩra andũ arĩa maathũire atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: Nĩmũkũgĩa na thayũ.’ Na kũrĩ arĩa othe marũmagĩrĩra ũremi wa ngoro ciao, makameera atĩrĩ, ‘Gũtirĩ ũũru ũkũmũkora.’
Vanoramba vachiti kuna avo vanondizvidza, ‘Jehovha anoti: Muchava norugare.’ Uye kuna vaya vose vanotevera kusindimara kwemwoyo yavo, vanoti, ‘Hakuna chakaipa chichakuwirai.’
18 No rĩrĩ, nũũ wao ũrĩ warũgama ciira-inĩ wa Jehova, akĩona kana akĩigua kiugo gĩake. Nũũ wathikĩrĩirie kana akĩigua kiugo gĩake?
Asi ndiani pakati pavo akamira parangano yaJehovha, kuti aone kana kunzwa shoko rake? Ndiani akateerera akanzwa shoko rake?
19 Atĩrĩrĩ, kĩhuhũkanio kĩa Jehova gĩgaatuthũka na mangʼũrĩ, ta kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene gĩkĩharũrũka, nakĩo kĩgũĩre mĩtwe ya andũ arĩa aaganu.
Tarirai, dutu raJehovha richaputika muhasha dzake, chamupupuri chichimona chakananga pamisoro yavakaipa.
20 Marakara macio ma Jehova matigaathira, o nginya rĩrĩa akaahingia muoroto wa ngoro yake. Matukũ-inĩ marĩa magooka-rĩ, nĩmũgataũkĩrwo nĩ ũhoro ũcio wega.
Kutsamwa kwaJehovha hakungadzoki, kusvikira apedza zvinovavarirwa nomwoyo wake. Pamazuva achauya muchazvinzwisisa zvakanyatsojeka.
21 Anabii acio-rĩ, ti niĩ ndaamatũmire, no rĩrĩ, nĩmatengʼerete na ndũmĩrĩri ciao; niĩ ndiamaarĩirie, no-o no marathĩte mohoro.
Handina kutuma vaprofita ava, kunyange zvakadaro vakamhanya neshoko ravo; ini handina kutaura navo, kunyange zvakadaro vakaprofita.
22 No korwo nĩmarũgamĩte ciira-inĩ wakwa-rĩ, nĩmangĩahunjirie ndũmĩrĩri yakwa kũrĩ andũ akwa, na nĩmangĩagarũrũkĩte, magatigana na mĩthiĩre yao mĩũru, na magatigana na ciĩko ciao njũru.
Asi dai vakamira parangano yangu, vangadai vakaparidza mashoko angu kuvanhu vangu, uye vangadai vakavadzora panzira dzavo dzakaipa, napamabasa avo akaipa.
23 “Kaĩ ndĩ Ngai wa o gũkũ gũkuhĩ, na ndirĩ Ngai wa kũraya?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekũũria.
“Ko, ini ndinongori Mwari ari pedyo here,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “ndisati ndiri Mwari ari kure?
24 “Kũrĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota kwĩhitha kũrĩa kwĩhithĩte mũno, ũndũ itangĩhota kũmuona?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekũũria. “Githĩ ndiyũrĩte kũndũ guothe, igũrũ na thĩ?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekũũria.
Pano munhu angavanda, panzvimbo dzakavanzika zvokuti handingamuoni here?” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Ko, handizadzi denga nenyika here?” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
25 “Nĩnjiguĩte ũrĩa anabii moigaga arĩa marathaga mohoro ma maheeni makĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩakwa. Moigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩndĩrarootire! Nĩndĩrarootire!’
“Ndakanzwa zvakataurwa navaprofita vanoprofita nhema muzita rangu. Vanoti, ‘Ndakarota! Ndakarota!’
26 Nĩ nginya rĩ ũhoro ũyũ ũgũthiĩ na mbere ngoro-inĩ cia anabii acio maheenanagia, o acio marathaga maũndũ ma matũhũhũ moimĩte meciiria-inĩ mao ene?

Muprofita ane chiroto ngaataure kurota kwake, asi ane shoko rangu ngaataure nokutendeka. Nokuti mashanga ane basa rei pazviyo?” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
29 “Githĩ ndũmĩrĩri yakwa ndĩhaana ta mwaki, o na ta kĩbũi kĩrĩa gĩthetheraga rwaro rwa ihiga rũgatuĩka tũcere?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekũũria.

“Naizvozvo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “handina ukama navaprofita vanobirana mashoko anofungidzirwa kuti anobva kwandiri.
31 Ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga, “Nĩngũũkĩrĩra anabii acio maaragia ndeto ciao ene, na magacooka makoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Ũguo nĩguo Jehova oiga.’
