Izikeli 17

1 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasmi'ne,

Yehova anayankhula nane kuti,

2 Vahe'mofo mofavremoka, fronka kema kasamisua nanekea Israeli vahera zamasmio.

“Iwe mwana wa munthu, aphere mwambi anthu a Israeli ndi kuwawuza fanizo.

3 Amanage hunka zamasamio, Mikozama Kegava Hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka zamasamio, mago ra tumpamofona ra agekonarare hunte'negeno, azokamo'a za'za huno ruzahu ruzahu avonkrenakre huno konarari'amo'a agatere'nea tumpamo hareno Lebanoni zafafi vuno sida zafamofo amumpa ome nekafrie.

Uwawuze kuti Ambuye Yehova akuti, chiwombankhanga chachikulu, cha mapiko amphamvu, nthenga zitalizitali zamathothomathotho chinabwera ku Lebanoni. Chinagwira nthambi ya pamwamba pa mtengo wa mkungudza.

4 Hagi ana sida zafa amumpama akafriteno'a erino keonke'zama zagore'ma netraza vahe'mokizmi mopafi vuno, ana vahe'mokizmi rankumapi ome kri'ne.

Chinabudula msonga yeniyeni ya nthambiyo nʼkupita nayo ku dziko lamalonda ndipo anakayika mu mzinda wa anthu amalonda.

5 Hagi ana'ma huteno'a ana tumpamo'a mago'a avimzana Israeli mopafintira erino vuno, knare huno tima'ane mopafi ome hankre'ne. Hagi anama hankre'neana, rama'a ti me'nefi wilo zafa hankreankna huno ome hankre'ne.

“‘Kenaka chinatenga mbewu ina ya mʼdziko ndi kukayidzala ku malo a chonde kumene kunali madzi ambiri. Anayidzala ngati mmene amadzalira mtengo wa msondozi.

6 Ana avimzamo'a hageno waini zafa sampreno, mopafi rafu'nare'ne. Hagi ana azankunamo'za eri arufagagi'za ana tumpama mani'nerega zamavugosa hunente'za, agata hage'za azankunara omere emere hu'naze.

Ndipo inaphuka nisanduka mtengo wa mpesa wotambalala chamʼmunsi. Nthambi zake zinaloza mmwamba kumene kunali chiwombankhangacho, koma mizu yake inalowa pansi. Kotero unakhala mtengo wamphesa ndipo unasanduka wa nthambi ndiponso wa masamba ambiri.

7 Hagi ete mago ra tumpamofona anahukna huno ra agekona hunte'negeno, rama'a azoka me'ne. Hagi ana waini zafamofo arafu'naramine azankunatmimo'za ana tumpamo'a ti erino egahie hu'za zamagesa nentahi'za, rukrahe hu'za ana tumpama mani'nea kaziga zamavugosa hunte'naze.

“‘Koma panali chiwombankhanga chinanso chachikulu, cha mapiko amphamvu ndi cha nthenga zambiri. Tsopano mtengo wamphesa uja unakhotetsera mizu yake kwa chiwombankhangacho kuchokera pa malo amene unadzalidwa ndipo unatambalitsa nthambi zake kwa chiwombankhangacho kufuna kuthiridwa madzi.

8 Hianagi ana waini zafama hankre'neana rama'a azankuna reno rama'a ragarami renenteno, knare waini zafa fore hinogu knare mopafi tinkenare hankre'ne.

Koma mtengowo unadzalidwa kale pa nthaka yabwino mʼmbali mwa madzi kuti ukhale ndi nthambi zambiri, ubereke zipatso ndi kukhala wokongola.’

9 Hanki Ra Anumzana miko'zama kegavama hu'nea Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka zamasamio, ana wainimo'a knare huno hageno marerino raga reontegahianki, Nagra rafuna'a eri vatitrenugeno raga reontenigeno a'ninamo'a hariri hanigeno osaparegahie. Nagra amuhoa osu'na fru hu'na eri vati tregahuankino, mago hankave vahe'mo'a eme vati otresigeno rama'a sondia vahe'mo'zanena eme vati otregahaze.

“Ukawawuze Aisraeli kuti, ‘Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse akuti: Kodi udzakula bwino? Kodi chiwombankhanga chija sichidzawuzula mizu ndi kubudula nthambi zake kuti ufote? Masamba ake onse anthete adzafota. Sipadzafunika dzanja lamphamvu kapena anthu ambiri kuti awuzule.

10 Hagi ana wainima ete vatinoma krisiana, knare huno hagegahifi ko? Ifi zage hanati kazigati'ma esia zaho'mo eme eri hagage hugahio? I'o, anama knare'ma huno hageno mareri'nea mopafi mani'neno hagage hugahie.

Ngakhale utawokedwa pena, kodi udzaphuka? Kodi sudzafoteratu mphepo ya kummawa ikadzawomba, kufotera pa malo pamene anawuwokerapo?’”

11 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasmi'ne,

Kenaka Yehova anandiyankhula nati:

12 Keontahi Israeli vahera amanage hunka zamasmio, Tamagra tumpamofo fronka kemofo agafa'a antahi ani' hu'nazafi? Babiloni kumate kini ne'mo'a Jerusalemi kumate eno, kini ne'ene ugagota kva vahe'araminena zamavareno Babiloni vu'ne hunka zamasamio.

“Tawafunsa anthu owukirawa kuti, ‘kodi mukudziwa tanthauzo la zinthu zimenezi?’ Uwafotokozere kuti, ‘Mfumu ya Babuloni inapita ku Yerusalemu ndikukatengako mfumu ndi anthu ake otchuka ndi kubwera nawo ku Babuloni.

13 Hagi Juda kva vahe'mofo mofavre'ramimpinti mago ne' avreno ana ne'ene huhagerafi huvempage nehuno, agri agoragama mani'neno maka kema haniama antahimisigura huvempage hu'ne. Ana nehuno ana mopafima ugagotama hu'naza kva vahetmina zamavareno Babiloni kumate vu'ne.

Ndipo anatenga mmodzi wa banja laufumu ndi kuchita naye mgwirizano, ndipo anamulumbiritsa kuti akhale womvera. Inatenganso akulu onse a mʼdzikomo

14 Hagi e'inama hu'neana Israeli vahe'mo'za hanaveti'za hara huonte'za, agri agorga mani'neza agri kema nevaririza mopazmire'ma manisagu huvempa kea hu'naze.

kuti ufumu wa dzikolo utsitsidwe, usadzaphukenso, koma kuti ukhalepobe posunga pangano limene unachita.

15 Hianagi Juda kini ne'mo'a Babiloni kini nera ha' arenenteno, ha'ma eme aza huza hanagu rama'a sondia vahetamine hosi afutaminena Isipi kumateti ome zamavarenka eno huno agri agi'ma erino Isipima unemania eri'za ne'a hunte'ne. Hagi ana antahintahi'amo'a ome knare hugahifi? E'i ana'ma hania zamo'a Babiloni kini ne'mofo azampintira rugraru vazigahifi? Nanekema huvempa huke huhagerafina'a kea ruhantgino atreno fregahifi?

Koma mfumu inawukira mfumu ya ku Babuloni potumiza nthumwi ku dziko la Igupto kukatenga akavalo ndi gulu lalikulu la nkhondo. Kodi mfumu yotereyi ingapambane? Kodi wochita zinthu zoterezi angapulumuke? Kodi angaphwanye mgwirizano ndi kupulumuka?

16 Kasefa hu'na mani'noa Ra Anumzana Nagra hankavenentake Anumzamo'na huankino, tamage huno Juda kini ne'mo'a kinima azeri otigekema kema anakike huhagerafi huvempa kema hu'na'a kini ne'mofo kumapi Babiloni frigahie.

“‘Ndithu pali Ine wamoyo, akutero Ambuye Yehova, mfumuyo idzafera ku Babuloni, mʼdziko la mfumu imene inayika pa mpando waufumu. Inapeputsa lumbiro lake nʼkuphwanya pangano limene inachita ndi mfumu inayo.

17 Hagi Babiloni sondia vahe'mo'ma Juda vahe kuma'ma avazagi kagiza mani'neza ha'ma hanaza zama kuma keginamofo megi'ama mopama ante hihi hu'za mani'neza rama'a vahe'ma zamahe fri'zama nehanageno'a, Isipi kini ne' Fero'a hankave sondia vahe'a zamavareno egahianagi, zamaza osugahaze.

Farao ndi gulu lake lankhondo lamphamvu sadzatha kumuthandiza pa nkhondo, pamene mfumu ya Babuloni idzapanga mitumbira ya nkhondo ndi nsanja za nkhondo kuti iwononge miyoyo yambiri.

18 Hagi Juda kini ne'mo'a kema ananekino huvempama hu'nea kea ruha'nentagino Babiloni kini ne'enema huhagerafi'nea kea ovariri'ne. Na'ankure agra azana ante nagamuteno huvempa huteno, ana kea ovariri'neankino ana knazana agate'oregahie.

Mfumu ya ku Yuda inanyoza lumbiro lake pophwanya pangano. Inalonjeza komabe sinatsatire malonjezo ake. Choncho sidzapulumuka.

19 E'ina hu'negu miko'zama kegava hu'noa Ra Anumzamo'na huankino, Nagri nagifima huhagerafi huvempa kema hu'neana ruhanentagino ovariri'neankina, Nagra ana nona'a knazana amigahue.

“‘Nʼchifukwa chake Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Ndithu pali Ine wamoyo, Ine ndidzalanga mfumu imeneyi chifukwa inanyoza lumbiro langa, ndi kuphwanya pangano langa.

20 Nagra kukoni'a eri atranenkeno ana kukomo azerinige'na avre'na Babiloni kumate knazana ome amigahue. Na'ankure huvempama hu'nea kea rutagreno, Nagritera mani fatgo hunora omani'ne.

Ndidzayitchera ukonde ndipo idzakodwa mu msampha wanga. Ndidzapita nayo ku Babuloni ndi kuyilanga kumeneko chifukwa inali yosakhulupirika kwa Ine.

21 Hagi hankave sondia vahe'aramina bainati kazinteti zamahe hana hanige'za, manisaza sondia vahe'mo'za maka kaziga atre'za panani hu'za fresagenka, Ra Anumzamo hu'nea kante amanara hie hunka kenka antahinka hugahane.

Asilikali ake onse amene akuthawa adzaphedwa ndi lupanga, ndipo opulumuka adzabalalitsidwa ku mbali zonse. Ndipo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine Yehova ndayankhula.

22 Hagi Mika'zama Kegava Hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Nagra zaza sida zafamofo amumpa'a akafri'na, Israeli mopafima za'za huno mareri agatere'nea agonafi ome krigahue.

“‘Ambuye Yehova akuti: Ine mwini ndidzatenga nthambi pamwamba penipeni pa mkungudza ndi kuyidzala; ndidzathyola nthambi yanthete kuchokera pa nthambi zapamwamba penipeni ndi kuyidzala pamwamba pa phiri lalitali.

23 Hianagi Israeli mopafima za'za huno mareri agatere'nesia agonafi ome krisugeno, hageno ome rahuno azankunatamina vuno eno huno ragaramina renenteno marerisa zafa fore hanigeno, agigu agigu namaramimo'za e'za ana sida zafa tonapinka nona eme ki'za manigahaze.

Ndidzayidzaladi pa phiri lalitali la Israeli. Idzaphuka nthambi ndi kubereka zipatso. Choncho idzasanduka mkungudza wamphamvu. Mbalame za mtundu uliwonse zidzamanga zisa zawo mʼmenemo; zidzapeza malo okhala mu mthunzi wa nthambi zake.

24 Hagi zaza zafaramina eri atupa nehu'na, atupa zafaramina eri za'za nehu'na, kasefa zafaramina eri hagage nehu'na, hagage zafaramina eri kasefa hanenkeno kasefa huno hageno marerinke'za, Nagrikura Ra Anumza mani'ne hu'za zafaramimo'za ke'za antahi'za hugahaze. Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na huanki'na ana zana hugahue.

Mitengo yonse yakuthengo idzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova amene ndimafupikitsa mitengo yayitali ndi kutalikitsa mitengo yayifupi. Ndimawumitsa mitengo yabiriwiri ndi kubiriwitsa mitengo yowuma. “‘Ine Yehova ndayankhula zimenezi, ndipo ndidzazichita.’”
