Zeremaia 17

1 Hagi Juda vahe'mokizmi kumira roro hu'nea aini zotareti havegna'ma huno hankaveti'nea zamagu'arera hanagati'za krenente'za, Kresramanama nevaza itaraminte'ma me'nea pazivetaminte'enena hanagati'za krente'naze.

“Isono sikaJuda sidwetshwe ngensimbi, sabhalwa ngomcijo wedayimani ezicecedwini zenhliziyo zabo lasempondweni zama-alithare abo.

2 Hagi ana vahe'mo'za havi anumzantaminte'ma Kresramanama nevaza itama tro nehu'za, Asera a' havi anumzamofo amema'ama zafare'ma antre'za tro'ma hute'za, ranra zafa agafaramimpine agonaramimpinema ante'naza zantaminkura mofavre naga'zmimo'za zamagera okani'za vu'za monora ome hunezmantaze.

Labantwababo bayawakhumbula ama-alithare abo lezinsika zika-Ashera phansi kwezihlahla eziluhlaza laphezu kwamaqaqa aphakemeyo.

3 E'ina hu'negu Nagra tamagri ha' vahera zamatresuge'za Nagri agonaramimpina ne-eza havi anumzante'ma mono'ma hunentaza kumatamina eme eri haviza nehu'za, zagone marerisa feno zantaminena rohu eme tamare'za eri'za vugahaze. Na'ankure tamagrama mopatamifima kumi'ma huta eri hakarema hu'naza zante anara hugahaze.

Intaba yami eselizweni lenotho yenu kanye lemfuyo yenu yonke ngizakunikela kube yimpango, ndawonye lezindawo zenu eziphakemeyo, ngenxa yokona kulolonke ilizwe lenu.

4 Erisanti haregahazema hu'nama tami'noa mopa azeri so'e osu atregahaze. Nagra tamatresugeta keta antahitama osu'naza moparega ha' vahetamimofo eri'za vahe umanigahaze. Na'ankure tamagrama hazazamo narimpa ahe'zana eri akru hazageno, tusi narimpa ahe vava nehiankino, mago vahe'mo'a ana tevea rusura osugahie.

Ngenxa yezici zenu lizalahlekelwa yilifa engalinika lona. Ngizalenza libe yizigqili zezitha zenu elizweni elingalaziyo, ngoba livuse ulaka lwami, njalo luzavutha kuze kube nininini.”

5 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno hu'ne, Vahete'ma amuha'ma nehuno vahe'mo naza hugahie nehuno, vahe'mofo hankavegu'ma nentahino, Nagri'ma amefi'ma hunenamia vahe'mo'a sifnafi manigahie.

UThixo uthi: “Uqalekisiwe lowo othemba umuntu, othembe ukuthi amandla akhe asenyameni, onhliziyo yakhe ihlamukela uThixo.

6 E'inahu'ma hania vahe'mo'a hagege kokampi me'nea trazankna hu'neankino, henkama manino vanifina so'e nomani'zana omanigahie. Ana hu'neankino agra hagege kokampima hagemoke hu'negeno vahe'ma nomanifi manigahie.

Uzakuba njengesihlahlanyana enkangala; ukuphumelela kayikukubona ekufikeni kwakho. Uzahlala ezindaweni ezomileyo enkangala, elizweni letswayi elingahlali muntu.

7 Hianagi iza'o Ra Anumzamofonte amentinti nehuno, Agritema amuha'ma nehania vahe'mo'a asomu'ene manigahie.

Kodwa ubusisiwe umuntu othemba uThixo, othemba lakhe likuye.

8 Hagi e'inahuma nehia vahe'mo'a, tinke'nare hankre'naza zafamo'ma rafu'na atregeno fenkame timpi urami'negeno, zagegnama egeno'a korera nosiankna nehie. E'ina hu'neankino zage knafinena ani'na eri nemareno raga rente vava huno vugahie.

Uzakuba njengesihlahla esihlanyelwe eduze lamanzi esinabisela impande zaso esifuleni. Kasesabi lapho ukutshisa kufika; amahlamvu aso ahlala eluhlaza. Kasikhathazeki ngomnyaka wokoma; kasiphuthi ukuthela izithelo.”

9 Hagi vahe'mofo agu'afina vahe'ma revatagama hu'zamoke aviteno mago krigna hu'neankino kanamaregara osu'ne. Ana hu'negu iza ana zana keno antahino hugahie?

Inhliziyo iyakhohlisa okudlula izinto zonke njalo imbi kakhulu. Ngubani ongayizwisisa na?

10 Hianagi Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na vahe'mofo antahi'zana ke'na antahi'na nehu'na, vahe'mofo agu'anena rezagane'na negoe. Ana nehu'na zamagrama nehaza zamavu zamavate ante'na mizana zamitere nehue.

“Mina Thixo ngiyayihlola inhliziyo ngihlole lengqondo, ukuba umuntu ngimnike okufanele ukwenza kwakhe mayelana lalokho okufanele izenzo zakhe.”

11 Hagi fatgo osu kanteti'ma zago fenoma eri atruma nehaza vahe'mo'za, namamo agra'a onte'nea amute anukino mase'negeno horaho hiankna nehaze. Ana hu'neanki'za kasefa vahe mani'neza ana feno zana atre vagarete'za, ozafama ome resazana zamunte omane negi nagi vahe manigahaze.

Umuntu ozuza inotho ngezindlela ezimbi unjengesikhwehle esichamisela amaqanda esingawaqandelanga. Lapho ingxenye yokuphila kwakhe isidlule, izaphela, kuthi ekucineni abonakale eyisithutha.

12 Hagi nagra amanage hu'noe, Ra Anumzamofo hihamu hankave'ane kini tra'mo'a ese agafareti mesga huno meno e'neno, mono noma'afi me'negeta monora hunentone.

Isihlalo sobukhosi, esikhazimulayo esaphakanyiswayo kusukela ekuqaleni, siyindawo yethu yokuphephela.

13 Ra Anumzamoka Israeli vahe'mo'za Kagrite'ma amuha'ma nehaza Anumza mani'nane. Iza'o rukrahe'ma huno katreno vania vahe'mo'a agazegu nehuno kugusopafi avon krente'negeno fanene hiankna hugahie. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamoka kagra vahemo'ma neneno kasefa'ma huno manisia kampui tinkna hu'nananagi, kagri'ma katre'naza agafare anara hugahaze.

Awu Thixo, themba lika-Israyeli, bonke abakudelayo bazayangiswa. Labo abakuhlamukelayo bazabhalwa othulini ngoba bedele uThixo, umthombo wamanzi okuphila.

14 Ra Anumzamoka krifintira nazeri kanamarege'na kanamare'na nemani'na, nagu'vazinka navarege'na knare hu'na manisue. Na'ankure kagri kagige'za husga hunegantoe.

Ngisilisa, Thixo, njalo ngizasiliswa; ungikhulule, ngizakhululeka, ngoba nguwe engimdumisayo.

15 Hagi antahio, Israeli vahe'mo'za kiza zokago kea hunenante'za, Ra Anumzamofo naneke hunka huama'ma nehana nanekea, iga me'nefi atregeno ana nanekemo'a nena'a efore hinketa kamneno? hu'za nehaze.

Bahlala besithi kimi, “Lingaphi ilizwi likaThixo na? Kaligcwaliseke khathesi!”

16 Ra Anumzamoka nagri vahe'ma kegava huo hunka'ma nami'nana eri'zana atrena ofre'noe. Ana nehu'na mago zupa kagrikura hu'na, ama vahetera kari atregeno eme zamazeri haviza hino hu'na osu'noe. Maka nanekema hu'noana kagra ko kenka antahinka hu'nane.

Angibalekanga ekubeni ngumelusi wenu; liyakwazi ukuthi angilufisanga usuku lokuphela ithemba. Okudlula endebeni zami kusobala kini.

17 Ra Anumzamoka kagra nazeri korora osuo. Na'ankure hazenke zama ne-esigenka kagrake'za fra'ma kisanua kumani'a manigahane.

Ungabi ngowesabekayo kimi; uyisiphephelo sami ngosuku lokuhlupheka.

18 Hagi knama nami'za nazeri havizama nehaza vahera zamazeri zamagaze huo. Hianagi nagrira natrege'na nagazegura nehu'na, antahintahi hakarea osa'neno. Hagi ana vahera kna nezaminka mago'ane ante agofetu hunka zamazeri haviza huo.

Abangihluphayo kabayangiswe, kodwa mina ungivikele ehlazweni; kababe lokwesaba, kodwa mina ungivikele ekwesabeni. Balethele usuku lobubi. Ubabhubhise ngokuqothula okuphindiweyo.

19 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a nagrira nasamino, Kagra vunka Jerusalemi kuma kafaraminte ome otio. Ese'ma uotisanana veamokizmi kafanema hu'nea kafanteti'ma, Juda kini vahe'mo'zama ufre'za atirami'zama nehaza kafante uotio. Ana'ma hutenka vunka maka kafaraminte'enena ome otitere nehunka,

UThixo wathi kimi: “Hamba uyekuma esangweni labantu, amakhosi akoJuda angena ngalo njalo aphume ngalo; ume futhi lakuwo wonke amanye amasango aseJerusalema.

20 amanage hunka maka vahera zamasamio. Ama kuma kafaramimpinti'ma ufreta atiramitama nehaza vahe'motane, Juda kini vahe'motane Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahe'motane, maka Juda vahe'motanena Ra Anumzamo'ma hania nanekea kama antahiho.

Uthi kubo, ‘Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo, lina makhosi akoJuda labo bonke abantu abahlala koJuda kanye labantu bonke abahlala eJerusalema abangena ngala amasango.

21 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagrama hanua koro kea antahiho. Tamagrama knare huta mani'sanunema hanuta, mani fruhu kna Sabatirera Jerusalemi kumamofo kafaramimpintira feno zana erita marerita atiramita osiho.

UThixo uthi: Qaphelani lingathwali mthwalo ngosuku lweSabatha loba liwungenise ngamasango aseJerusalema.

22 Sabati knarera nontamifintira knama huga zana eri fegira nonteta, eri'zanena e'oriho. Hianagi Nagra tamagehe'ima zamasami'na Sabati kna ruotge hu'ne hu'nama zamasami'noa kante amage anteta kegava hiho.

Lingaphumisi mthwalo ezindlini zenu kumbe lenze loba yiwuphi umsebenzi ngosuku lweSabatha, kodwa ligcine iSabatha lingcwele, njengokulaya kwami okhokho benu.

23 Hianagi tamagri tamagehe'za ana nanekea antahi'za amagera nonte'za rukrahema hu'za ana nanekema antahi zankura zamavaresra hu'ne. Ana nehu'za zamavumro'ma ante kema huana zamagesa ante'za ontahi'naze.

Kodwa kabalalelanga loba banake; izintamo zabo zazilukhuni njalo kabalalelanga kumbe bamukele ukulaywa.

24 Hianagi Nagri nanekema antahita, kuma kafaramimpinti'ma feno zama erita atiramita mareritama nosuta, zagore'ma notreta, Sabati kna zupa eri'zama e'norita, Sabatima kegavama hanage'za,

UThixo uthi: Kodwa nxa liqaphele ukungilalela, lingangenisi mthwalo ngamasango edolobho leli ngeSabatha, kodwa ligcina usuku lweSabatha lungcwele ngokungenzi msebenzi ngalo,

25 kini vahemo'zane eri'za vahe zamimo'zanena ama ana kuma kafaramimpinti mareri'za atirami'za huvava hugahaze. E'ina nehanigeno Deviti nagapinti kinia efore hunante anante hu'za Jerusalemi kumapina kini tratera manigahaze. Maka zupa kini vahemo'zane eri'za vahe'zamimo'zanena, karisizamifine hosi agumpine mani'neza, kuma kafaramimpintira mareri'za atirami'za nehu'za, Juda vahe amu'nompina vano hugahaze. Ana nehanage'za ama rankumapina vahera manivava hu'za vugahaze.

lapho-ke amakhosi ahlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida azangena lezikhulu zawo ngamasango edolobho leli. Wona lezikhulu zawo bazafika begade izinqola zempi lamabhiza, belabantu bakoJuda lalabo abahlala eJerusalema; bahlale kulo idolobho kuze kube nininini.

26 Hagi Jerusalemi kuma'mofoma megagi'nea kumatamimpinti'ene Juda mopafima me'nea kumatamimpinti'ene, Jerusalemi kuma tavaonte'ma megagi'nea ne'onse kumatamimpinti'ene, Benzameni naga'mokizmi mopafinti'ene, zage fre kazigama me'nea ne'onse agonaramimofo agafinti'ene, agonaramimpima me'nea mopafinti'ene, Negevi kazigatiki hu'za vahera ne-e'za, tevefima kre fananehu ofane, mago'a ofaramine, witi ofaramine, mana nentake'za insensine, muse ofanena eri'za Ra Anumzamofo mono nontega egahaze.

Abantu bazakuza bevela emadolobheni akoJuda lasemizini egqagqele iJerusalema, bevela elizweni lakoBhenjamini lasezintatshaneni zangasentshonalanga, bevela elizweni lamaqaqa laseNegebi, beletha iminikelo yokutshiswa lemihlatshelo, iminikelo yamabele, impepha kanye leminikelo yokubonga endlini kaThixo.

27 Hianagi tamagra Nagri kema ontahita Sabatima kegavama nosuta, mago'a knare'ma nehazaza huta, Jerusalemi kumamofo kafaramimpinti'ma fenozama erita marerita atiramita nehuta Sabati zupama ke'onke zama zagore'ma atresage'na, Nagra Jerusalemi kuma kafaramintera teve tagintesanugeno nereno, Jerusalemi kumapima me'nea ranra nontaminena teno vuno eno huno neresigeno, mago vahe'mo'a ana tevea rusura osugahie.

Kodwa nxa lingangilaleli ekuthini ligcine usuku lweSabatha lungcwele ngokungathwali mthwalo lapho lingena ngamasango aseJerusalema ngosuku lweSabatha, lapho-ke ngizaphemba umlilo ongacitshekiyo emasangweni eJerusalema ozaqothula izinqaba zalo.’”
