Ieremia 29
1 EIA na olelo o ka palapala a Ieremia, a ke kaula i hoouna aku ai, mai Ierusalema aku i ke koena o ka poe lunakahiko i lawepioia'ku la, a i na kahuna, a i na kaula, a i na kanaka a pau a Nebukaneza i lawepio ai, mai Ierusalema aku a Babulona;
La-ke ngamazwi encwadi ayithumelayo uJeremiya umprofethi ivela eJerusalema isiya kunsali yabadala babathunjiweyo lakubapristi lakubaprofethi lebantwini bonke ayebathumbile uNebhukadinezari besuka eJerusalema wabasa eBhabhiloni
2 (Mahope iho o ka hele ana o Iekonia, ke alii, a me ke alii wahine, a me na luna a me na kaukaualii o ka Iuda a me Ierusalema, a me na kamana, a me na amara, a puka aku la mawaho o Ierusalema; )
(emva kokuphuma kukaJekoniya inkosi, lendlovukazi, labathenwa, iziphathamandla zakoJuda lezeJerusalema, lababazi, labakhandi, besuka eJerusalema),
3 Ma ka lima o Elasa, ke keiki a Sapona, a me Gemaria, ke keiki a Hilekia, (na mea a Zedekia, ke alii o ka Iuda i hoouna aku ai i Babulona, io Nebukaneza la, i ke alii o Babulona, ) i iho la,
ngesandla sikaElasa indodana kaShafani, loGemariya indodana kaHilikhiya, uZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda eyabathuma eBhabhiloni kuNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, isithi:
4 Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i ka poe a pau i lawepioia, na mea a'u i lawepio ai, mai Ierusalema aku a Babulona;
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kibo bonke abathunjiweyo engabenza bathunjwa besuswa eJerusalema basiwa eBhabhiloni:
5 E kukulu hale oukou, a e noho iho; e kanu i na mahinaai, a e ai i kolaila ai:
Yakhani izindlu, lihlale kizo, lihlanyele izivande, lidle izithelo zazo;
6 E mare i na wahine, a e hoohanau i na keikikane, a i na kaikamahine; a e lawe i na wahine na ka oukou poe keikikane, a e haawi aku hoi i ka oukou mau kaikamahine e mare i na kane, i hanau mai lakou i na keikikane, a i na kaikamahine; i kawowo oukou malaila, aole hoi e emi iho.
lithathe abafazi, lizale amadodana lamadodakazi, lithathele amadodana enu abafazi, lendise amadodakazi enu emadodeni, ukuze azale amadodana lamadodakazi, lande khona, linganciphi.
7 A e imi oukou i ka mea e malu ai ke kulanakauhale, kahi a'u i lawepio ai ia oukou, a e pule aku oukou ia Iehova nona; no ka mea, ma kona malu oukou e malu ai.
Lidinge ukuthula komuzi lapho engilithumbele khona, liwukhulekele eNkosini; ngoba ekuthuleni kwawo lizakuba lokuthula.
8 No ka mea, penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela; Mai puni oukou i ko oukou mau kaula, a me ko oukou mau kilokilo, na mea iwaenakonu o oukou; mai hoolohe hoi oukou i ko oukou moeuhane a oukou e hoomoe ai.
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Akuthi abaprofethi benu labavumisi benu abaphakathi kwenu bangalikhohlisi; lingawalaleli amaphupho enu eliwenza aphutshwe;
9 No ka mea, ke wanana wahahee nei lakou ia oukou ma ko'u inoa. Aole au i hoouna ia lakou, wahi a Iehova.
ngoba baprofetha amanga kini ngebizo lami; kangibathumanga, itsho iNkosi.
10 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Mahope o ka pau ana o na makahiki he kanahiku ma Babulona, alaila, e ike aku no au ia oukou, a e hooko i ka'u olelo maikai ia oukou, i ka hoihoi ana mai ia oukou i keia wahi.
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi: Qiniso, lapho iminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa isigcwalisekile eBhabhiloni, ngizalihambela, ngiqinise ilizwi lami elihle kini, ukuthi ngilibuyise kulindawo.
11 No ka mea, ua ike no wau i na manao a'u e manao nei ia oukou, wahi a Iehova, he mau manao no ka hoomalu, aole no ke ahewa, e haawi ia oukou i hope maikai, a me ka hoolana.
Ngoba mina ngiyazi imicabango engiyicabanga ngani, itsho iNkosi, imicabango yokuthula, kayisiyo eyokubi, ukuthi ngilinike isiphetho lokulindelweyo.
12 Alaila oukou e hea mai ai ia'u, a e hele hoi oukou, a e pule mai ia'u, a e hoolohe no au ia oukou.
Khona lizangibiza liyekhuleka kimi, ngilizwe.
13 A e imi mai no oukou ia'u a loaa, i ka wa e imi mai ai oukou ia'u me ko oukou naau a pau.
Njalo lizangidinga, lingithole, lapho lingidingisisa ngenhliziyo yenu yonke.
14 A e loaa no wau ia oukou, wahi a Iehova, a e hoihoi aku au i ko oukou lawepioia; a e hoiliili hoi au ia oukou mai na aina a pau mai, a mai na wahi a pau mai, hahi a'u i kipaku aku ai ia oukou, wahi a Iehova; a e lawe hou no wau ia oukou i kahi malaila aku no wau i lawepio aku ai ia oukou.
Njalo ngizatholwa yini, itsho iNkosi, ngibuyise ukuthunjwa kwenu, ngiliqoqe kuzo zonke izizwe lakuzo zonke indawo lapho engilixotshele khona, itsho iNkosi, ngilibuyise endaweni engalithumba livela khona.
15 No ka mea, ua olelo oukou, Na Iehova no i hoala mai i mau kaula no kakou ma Babulona.
Ngoba litshilo: INkosi isivusele abaprofethi eBhabhiloni.
16 No ka mea, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova no ke alii e noho ana ma ka noho alii o Davida, a no na kanaka a pau e noho la iloko o keia kulanakauhale, a no ko oukou poe hoahanau i hele pu ole me oukou iloko o ke pio;
Ngoba utsho njalo uJehova ngenkosi ehlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida langabo bonke abantu abahlala kulumuzi, abafowenu abangaphumelanga ekuthunjweni kanye lani:
17 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o na kaua penei; Aia hoi, e hoouna au i ka pahikaua maluna o lakou, a me ka wi, a me ka mai ahulau, a e hoolilo wau ia lakou e like me na fiku inoino, pono ole ke aiia, no ko lakou inoino loa.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Khangelani, ngizathumela phakathi kwabo inkemba, indlala, lomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ngibenze babe njengemikhiwa eyenyanyekayo, engadlekiyo ngenxa yobubi.
18 A e hahai no wau ia lakou i ka pahikaua, a me ka wi, a me ka mai ahulau, a e haawi no wau ia lakou a pau e laweia a iloko o na aupuni a pau o ka honua, i mea e poino ai, a i mea pilihua, a i mea hoowahawaha, a i mea henehene, iwaeua o na aina a pau, kahi a'u i kipaku aku ai ia lakou:
Ngixotshane labo ngenkemba, ngendlala, langomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ngibanikele ukuba yisesabiso kuyo yonke imibuso yomhlaba, babe yisiqalekiso, lento eyesabekayo, lokuncifelwayo, lehlazo, phakathi kwazo zonke izizwe lapho engibaxotshele khona;
19 No ka mea, aole lakou i hoolohe mai i ka'u mau olelo, wahi a Iehova, na olelo a'u i hoouna aku ai ia lakou ma ka'u mau kauwa, ma na kaula hoi, e ala ana i ka wanaao e hoouna, aka, aole oukou i hoolohe mai, wahi a Iehova.
ngenxa yokuthi bengawalalelanga amazwi ami, itsho iNkosi, engawathumela kibo ngenceku zami abaprofethi, ngivuka ngovivi ngibathuma, kodwa kalilalelanga, itsho iNkosi.
20 E hoolohe hoi oukou i ka olelo a Iehova, e oukou a pau o na mea pio, na mea a'u i hoouna aku ai, mai Ierusalema a Babulona:
Lina-ke zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, lina lonke bathunjiweyo, engabathuma besuka eJerusalema besiya eBhabhiloni:
21 Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova o na kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, no Ahaba, ke koiki a Kolaia, a no Zedekia, ke keiki a Maaseia, na mea i wanana mai i ka wahahee ia oukou ma ko'u inoa; Aia hoi, e haawi no wau ia laua iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza, ke alii o Babulona; a e pepehi no oia ia laua imua o ko oukou mau maka:
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, mayelana loAhabi indodana kaKolaya, lamayelana loZedekhiya indodana kaMahaseya, abaprofetha amanga kini ngebizo lami: Khangelani, ngizabanikela esandleni sikaNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, ozababulala phambi kwamehlo enu.
22 A ma o laua la e laweia'i ka olelo hoino e ka poe pio a pau o ka Iuda, na mea ma Babulona, me ka olelo iho, Na Iehova e hoohalike ia oe me Zedekia, a me Ahaba, na mea a ke alii o Babulona i ohinu ai ma ke ahi;
Njalo kuzathathwa kubo isiqalekiso yibo bonke abathunjiweyo koJuda abaseBhabhiloni kuthiwe: Kungathi iNkosi ikumise njengoZedekhiya lanjengoAhabi, inkosi yeBhabhiloni eyamosa ngomlilo;
23 No ka mea, ua hana laua i ka mea lapuwale maloko o ka Iseraela, a ua moe kolohe me na wahine a ko lakou hoalauna, a ua olelo i na olelo wahahee ma ko'u inoa, na mea a'u i kauoha ole ai ia lakou; ua ike no wau, a he hoike no hoi, wahi a Iehova.
ngenxa yokuthi benze ubuthutha koIsrayeli, bafeba labafazi babomakhelwane babo, baqamba amazwi angamanga ngebizo lami, engingabalayanga wona; njalo yimi engaziyo, engingumfakazi, itsho iNkosi.
24 E olelo aku no hoi oe ia Semaia, i ka mea moeuhane, e i aku,
Uzakhuluma kuShemaya umNehelami usithi:
25 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova o ua kaua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei, me ka i ana mai, No ko hoouka ana i na palapala ma kou inoa i na kanaka a pau ma Ierusalema, a ia Zepania, ke keiki a Maaseia, ke kahuna, a i na kahuna a pau, i ka i ana ae,
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, isithi: Ngenxa yokuthi wena uthumele izincwadi ngebizo lakho kubo bonke abantu abaseJerusalema, lakuZefaniya indodana kaMahaseya umpristi, lakubo bonke abapristi, usithi:
26 Ua hoolilo o Iehova ia oe i kahuna, ma ka hakahaka o Iehoiada, ke kahuna, i mea e noho luna'i oukou maloko o ka hale o Iehova, no kela kanaka keia kanaka hewa-hewa, a hoolilo ia ia iho i kaula, i mea e hahao aku ai oe ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao, a iloko o na laau kupee:
INkosi isikwenze ube ngumpristi esikhundleni sikaJehoyada umpristi, ukuthi libe ngababonisi bendlu yeNkosi phezu kwakhe wonke umuntu ohlanyayo ozitshaya umprofethi, ukuthi limfake esitokisini elezankosi entanyeni.
27 A ano la, no keaha la oe i papa ole aku ai ia Ieremia no Anetota, ka mea hoolilo ia ia iho i kaula no oukou?
Khathesi-ke, kungani ungamkhuzanga uJeremiya umAnathothi ozitshaya umprofethi kini?
28 No ka mea, nolaila ia i hoouna mai ai io makou ma Babulona nei, i ka i ana mai, Ua loihi keia noho ana; e kukulu hale oukou, a e noho iho; e kanu i ua mahinaai, a e ai i kolaila ai.
Ngoba ngenxa yalokhu usethumele kithi eBhabhiloni esithi: Kuzakuba kude; yakhani izindlu, lihlale kizo, lihlanyele izivande, lidle izithelo zazo.
29 A heluhelu aku la o Zepania, ke kahuna i keia palapala ma na pepeiao o Ieremia, ke kaula.
UZefaniya umpristi waseyifunda lincwadi endlebeni zikaJeremiya umprofethi.
30 Alaila, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova io Ieremia la, i mai la,
Laselifika ilizwi leNkosi kuJeremiya lisithi:
31 E hoouna aku, a i ka poe a pau e noho pio ana, e i aku, Penei ka olelo ana mai a Iehova no Semaia, ka mea moeuhane; No ko Semaia wanana ana ia oukou, a hoouna ole aku au ia ia, a hoohilinai oia ia oukou i ka wahahee;
Thumela kubo bonke abathunjiweyo usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi ngoShemaya umNehelami: Ngenxa yokuthi uShemaya eprofethe kini, mina-ke ngingamthumanga, walenza ukuthi lithembe amanga,
32 Nolaila, ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei, Aia hoi, e hoopai no wau ia Semaia, ka mea moeuhane, a me kana hua; aole e loaa ia ia ke kanaka e noho mawaena o keia poe kanaka; aole hoi oia e ike i ka maikai a'u e hana'i no ko'u poe kanaka, wahi a Iehova; no ka mea, ua ao aku oia i ke kipi ana ia Iehova.
ngakho itsho iNkosi: Khangela, ngizajezisa uShemaya umNehelami kanye lenzalo yakhe; kayikuba lamuntu ozahlala phakathi kwalababantu, angaboni okuhle engizakwenzela abantu bami, itsho iNkosi, ngoba ukhulume ukuhlamuka emelene leNkosi.
