Zeremaia 23

1 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagri vahetema kegavama nehaza kva vahe'mota, Nagri vahera zamazeri haviza nehazankita, hago hazenkefi mani'naze. Sipisipima kegavama nehaza vahe'mo'za sipisipi naga'ma repanani hazage'za hazagre'za frazankna tamagra nehaze.

“Ole wao wachungaji wanaoharibu na kutawanya kondoo wa malisho yangu!” asema Bwana.

2 E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzana Israeli vahemota Anumzamo'a ana sipisipi kva vahe'motagura amanage huno nehie. Tamagra Nagri sipisipi nagara repanani nehuta, kantera zamavare fatgo huta ovu'naze. Ana nehuta kegava hu so'e huozamante'naze. Tamagrama e'inahu havi avu'ava zama hu'naza agafare Nagra nona hu'na tamazeri haviza hugahue huno hu'ne.

Kwa hiyo hili ndilo Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli, analowaambia wachungaji wanaowachunga watu wangu: “Kwa sababu mmelitawanya kundi langu na kuwafukuzia mbali, wala hamkuwatunza, basi mimi nitawaadhibu kwa ajili ya uovu mliofanya,” asema Bwana.

3 Hagi ana'ma hute'na Nagra vaheni'ama zamazeri panani huge'zama ru moparegama umani emanima hu'nazaregatira, osi'a naga'ma ofri'ma mani'nazama'a ete zamavare tru hugahue. Ana hanuge'za ete mopa zamire e'za emanine'za mofavrea kasezmante'za hakare hu'za ome ra hugahaze.

“Mimi mwenyewe nitayakusanya mabaki ya kundi langu kutoka nchi zote ambazo nimewafukuzia, nami nitawarudisha katika malisho yao, mahali ambapo watazaa na kuongezeka idadi yao.

4 Hagi Nagra kasefa kva vahe zamazeri otisuga'za kegava huzmantegahaze. Ana hanuge'za mago'enena korora huge zmagogogura osugahaze. Anampintira magomo'e huno fananea osugahie huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Nitaweka wachungaji juu yao ambao watawachunga, nao hawataogopa tena au kutishwa, wala hatapotea hata mmoja,” asema Bwana.

5 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, magokna ne-eanki'na Nagra Deviti nagapintira mago fatgo avu'ava ene kini ne' azeri otigahue. Ana hanugeno agra kinia mani'neno, knare antahi zanteti'ene fatgo avu'ava zanteti'ene fatgoma huno refkoma hu avu'avazante'ene huno agrama kegavama hania mopafi vahera kegava huzmantegahie.

Bwana asema, “Siku zinakuja, nitakapomwinulia Daudi Tawi lenye haki, Mfalme atakayetawala kwa hekima, na kutenda lililo haki na sawa katika nchi.

6 Hagi agrama kinima manino kegavama hania knafina, Juda vahe'ene Israeli vahe'mo'zanena mago zankura zamagesa ontahi knare hu'za zamagu'vazi'za manigahaze. Ana hanage'za vahe'mo'za ana ne'mofo agima ahesazana, Ra Anumzamo'a tagri fatgo avu'ava zamofo agafa'a mani'ne hu'za agia ahegahaze.

Katika siku zake, Yuda ataokolewa na Israeli ataishi salama. Hili ndilo jina atakaloitwa: Bwana Haki Yetu.

7 E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzamo'a huno, mago kna ne-eankita tamagra amanage huta osugahaze. Tamagerfa huno Ra Anumzana ofri mani'nea Anumzankino, Israeli vahera tavre atiramigeta Isipi mopafintira e'none huta osugahaze.

“Hivyo basi, siku zinakuja, wakati ambapo watu hawatasema tena, ‘Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, aliyewapandisha Waisraeli kutoka Misri,’

8 Hianagi zamagra amanage hu'za hugahaze. Ofri kasefa huno mani'nea Ra Anumzamo'a noti kaziga mopafintira Israeli vahera zamavare atiramino ne-eno, ru moparegama zamavare trege'zama kinama ome huterema hu'naregatira ete zamavare atru hugahie. Ana hanige'za ete mopazamifi emanigahaze hu'za hugahaze.

bali watasema, ‘Hakika kama Bwana aishivyo, aliyewatoa wazao wa Israeli kutoka nchi ya kaskazini na nchi zote alizokuwa amewafukuzia,’ asema Bwana. Ndipo wataishi katika nchi yao wenyewe.”

9 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma ruotage'ma hu'nea naneke'ama kasnampa vahe'ma ome zamasamio huno'ma nenasamigeno'a, tumo'nimo'a nata negrigeno zaferinani'a omne amne hu'ne. Ana nehigeno aka ti ne'neno rama'a waini ti ne'nea vahe'mo, negi nagi nehuno traka huno umasete emasete hiaza hu'noe.

Kuhusu manabii: Moyo wangu umevunjika ndani yangu; mifupa yangu yote inatetemeka. Nimekuwa kama mtu aliyelewa, kama mtu aliyelemewa na divai, kwa sababu ya Bwana na maneno yake matakatifu.

10 Hagi rumofo a'ene rumofo venema monko'zama hu avu'ava'zamo'a mopafina avitegeno, amama mani'naza mopamo'a sifnafi mani'neno kragi'nerie. Ana higeno mopamo'a hagege nehigeno, ka'ma kokampima me'nea trazamo'enena hagege hu'ne. Na'ankure kasnampa vahe'mo'za maka'zama nehaza zamo'a kumi zanke nehu'za, zamagrama eriga eri'zana hankaveti'za e'ori'naze.

Nchi imejaa wazinzi; kwa sababu ya laana, nchi imekauka na malisho yaliyoko nyikani yamekauka. Mwenendo wa manabii ni mbaya na mamlaka yao si ya haki.

11 Hagi mago'ene Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Kasnampa vahemo'zane pristi vahemo'zanena Nagri navu'nava zana amagera nontaze. Ana nehu'za Nagri mono nompinena havi avu'ava zana nehazage'na nezamagoe.

“Nabii na kuhani wote si wacha Mungu; hata hekaluni mwangu ninaona uovu wao,” asema Bwana.

12 E'ina hu'negu kama vanaza kamo'a kriri hatu hu'nea kampi vazankna nehanage'na, zamaretufe atresuge'za ome traka hu'za masegahaze. Na'ankure zamagrama hu'naza avu'ava zante'ma nonama hu'na zamazeri haviza hanua kafumo'a ne-eanki'na, knaza zamigahue huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

“Kwa hiyo mapito yao yatakuwa utelezi, watafukuziwa mbali gizani na huko wataanguka. Nitaleta maafa juu yao katika mwaka wa kuadhibiwa kwao,” asema Bwana.

13 Hagi ana nehazage'za Samelia kumate'ma nemaniza kasnampa vahe'mo'zama mago kasrino havizama hu'nea avu'ava zama hu'naza zama ke'noana, zamagra Bali havi anumzamofo agifi kasnampa kea nehu'za, Israeli vaheni'a zamavare'za havi kante vu'naze.

“Miongoni mwa manabii wa Samaria nililiona jambo la kuchukiza: Walitabiri kwa Baali na kuwapotosha Israeli watu wangu.

14 Hianagi Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza kasnampa vahe'mo'za zamagranena, havizama hu'nea zamavu'zmava zama nehazage'na Nagrama zamage'noana, ru vahe a'nene monko avu'avaza nehu'za, maka zupa havige kege hu'naze. Ana nehu'za havi avu'ava zama nehaza vahera hu izo huzmantage'za mago'ene havi avu'ava zana huvava nehu'za atre'za rukrahera hu'za ome'naze. Nagrama maka vahe'ma zamagoana Sodomu kumate vahe kna hu'za haviza nehazage'za, Jerusalemi kumapi vahe'mo'za Gomora kumate vahe kna hu'za haviza hu'naze.

Nako miongoni mwa manabii wa Yerusalemu nimeona jambo baya sana: Wanafanya uzinzi na kuenenda katika uongo. Wanatia nguvu mikono ya watenda mabaya, kwa ajili hiyo hakuna yeyote anayeachana na uovu wake. Wote wako kama Sodoma kwangu; watu na Yerusalemu wako kama Gomora.”

15 E'ina hu'negu Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa vahekura amanage hu'ne, Nagra aka traza nezamina avuataga zama me'nea tinena zamisuge'za negahaze. Na'ankure Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza kasnampa vahepinti havi avu'ava zamo'a agafa huteno ama mopafina vuno eno hu'ne.

Kwa hiyo, hili ndilo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote asemalo kuhusu manabii: “Nitawafanya wale chakula kichungu na kunywa maji yaliyotiwa sumu, kwa sababu kutokana na manabii wa Yerusalemu kutokumcha Mungu kumeenea katika nchi yote.”

16 Hagi Monafi sondia vahe'mofo hankavenentake Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Kasnampa vahe'mo'zama kasnampa kema nehaza nanekea ontahiho. Na'ankure tamagrikura knare huta manigahaze hu'za havi kasnampa nanekea nehaze. Ana nanekema nehazana Ra Anumzamo'na Nagra osu'noa naneke nehazanki, zamagra'a antahintahifinti havige huza ava'nagna zana ke'none huza nehaze.

Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote asemalo: “Msisikilize wanachowatabiria manabii, wanawajaza matumaini ya uongo. Wanasema maono kutoka akili zao wenyewe, hayatoki katika kinywa cha Bwana.

17 Hagi ama ana kasnampa vahe'mo'za Nagri nanekema amage'ma nontaza vahekura hu'za, Anumzamofo rimpa fru zamo'a tamagrane mesie nehu'za, kema nontahi'za zamagra'a zamavesite'ma vanoma nehaza vahekura hu'za, hazenke zamo'a tamagritera omegahie hu'za nehaze.

Huendelea kuwaambia wale wanaonidharau mimi, ‘Bwana asema: Mtakuwa na amani.’ Kwa wale wote wafuatao ugumu wa mioyo yao, wao husema, ‘Hakuna dhara litakalowapata.’

18 Hianagi nagra Jeremaia'na hu'na, ana kasnampa vahepintira iza Ra Anumzamofo atrufina Agri avuga mani'neno, agra avufintira Anumzamofona negeno nanekema hiana antahi'ne? Ana hu'neankino Agrama hia nenekea mago'mo'e huno agesafintira ontahi'ne.

Lakini ni yupi miongoni mwao aliyesimama katika baraza la Bwana ili kuona au kusikia neno lake? Ni nani aliyesikiliza na kusikia neno lake?

19 Hagi keho! Ra Anumzamofo arimpahe zamo'a, ununkomo'ma nehiaza huno ne-e. Ana nehiankino Agri rimpa ahe'zamo'a kagikagi zahomo nehiaza huno ruherafi ramino eno, havi avu'ava zama nehaza vahe'mokizmi zamasenia eme rentrako hugahie.

Tazama, dhoruba ya Bwana itapasuka kwa ghadhabu, kisulisuli kitazunguka na kuanguka vichwani vya waovu.

20 Hagi Ra Anumzamofo arimpa ahe'zamo'a vagaore mevava huno nevanigeno, nazano hugahuema huno antahi'nesia zana ana maka huvagaregahie. Henka'a ana maka zama ome vagaresania zupa, tamagra ama ana zankura antahi ama' hugahaze.

Hasira ya Bwana haitageuka mpaka amelitimiza kusudi la moyo wake. Siku zijazo mtalifahamu kwa wazi.

21 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra ana kasnampa vahera huozamante'noe. Hianagi zamagra'a zamagesafinti kasnampa kea hu'za nevu'za, Nagra nanekea ozamasami noanagi, zamagra zamagesafinti havi kasnampa kea ome huama nehaze.

Mimi sikuwatuma manabii hawa, lakini bado wamekimbia wakitangaza ujumbe wao. Mimi sikusema nao, lakini wametabiri.

22 Hianagi Nagri atrufima zamagra mani'ne'za nagri nanekema antahi'naresina, Nagri nanekea huama hu'za vaheni'a zamasamizage'za nentahi'za, kefo avu'azama nehaza kante'ma nevaza zana atre'za rukrahe hu'za ne-eza, havi avu'ava zampintira atre'za azasine.

Lakini kama wangesimama barazani mwangu, wangetangaza maneno yangu kwa watu wangu, nao wangewageuza kutoka njia zao mbaya na kutoka matendo yao maovu.”

23 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Tamagrama antahi'zana, amama mani'nona mopa'afinke Anumzana Agra mani'neno, afete ru moparega Anumzana omani'ne huta nehazafi?

“Je, mimi ni Mungu aliyeko hapa karibu tu,” Bwana asema, “wala si Mungu aliyeko pia mbali?

24 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, tamagrama antahi'zana mago vahemo'ma fra'ma ki'nesaniana Nagrikura onkegahie huta nehazo? Ra Anumzamo'a huno, monafine mopafinema Nagrama mani avi'mate'noana tamagra ontahi'nazafi?

Je, mtu yeyote aweza kujificha mahali pa siri ili nisiweze kumwona?” Bwana asema. “Je, mimi sikuijaza mbingu na nchi?” Bwana asema.

25 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, ama ana kasnampa vahe'mo'zama Nagri nagifima havige kasnampa nanekema hu'nazana, nagra ko antahi'noe. Ana kasnampa nanekea amanage hu'naze. Nagra mago ava'na ke'noe, nagra mago ava'na ke'noe hu'za hu'naze.

“Nimesikia wanayoyasema manabii, hao wanaotabiri uongo kwa jina langu. Wanasema, ‘Nimeota ndoto! Nimeota ndoto!’

26 Hagi ama ana kasnampa vahe'mo'zama zamagra'a zamagu'afinti'ma eri fore hu'zama havi kasnampa nanekema huama'ma hu'za nevaza zana, nazupa ome atregahaze. Zamagrira zamagu'amo rezmavatga hige'za havi kasnampa naneke eri fore hu'za huama nehaze.

Mambo haya yataendelea mpaka lini ndani ya mioyo ya hawa manabii wa uongo, ambao hutabiri maono ya uongo ya akili zao wenyewe?

27 Hagi zamagra havige ava'nama ke'naza ava'na kea huge antahige nehu'za, zamagrama antahi'zana ana nehanunke'za Anumzamofona antahi omisaze hu'za hu'naze. Zamagehe'za e'inahu avu'avaza hu'za Nagrira antahi onami'za Bali havi anumzante monora hu'naze.

Wanadhani ndoto wanazoambiana wao kwa wao zitawafanya watu wangu walisahau jina langu, kama baba zao walivyolisahau jina langu kwa kumwabudu Baali.

28 Hagi mago kasnampa ne'mo'ma ava'nama ke'nesaniana atrenkeno agra ana ava'na huama hino. Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma Nagritegati'ma nanekema eri'nesania vahe'mo'a Nagrama asami'nesanua nanekea hu fatgo huno vahera zamasamino. Nagri nanekemo'a witimofo raga'agna hu'ne. Hianagi ana kasnampa vahe'mokizimi nanekemo'a witimofo akrua gna hu'ne.

Mwache nabii aliye na ndoto aseme ndoto yake, lakini yule aliye na neno langu na aliseme kwa uaminifu. Kwa maana jani kavu lina uhusiano gani na ngano?” asema Bwana.

29 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagri nanekemo'a tevegna hune'no, hamankna hu'neankino havea rufrageno rako huno rufuzafu petregahie.

“Je, neno langu si kama moto,” asema Bwana, “na kama nyundo ivunjayo mwamba vipande vipande?

30 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Antahiho! Nagrama mago vahe'ma asami'nenua nanekema musufama erino, Anumzamo nesami'nea naneke huno'ma huama'ma hania kasnampa vahera ha'rentegahue.

“Kwa hiyo, niko kinyume na manabii wanaoibiana maneno kana kwamba ni yangu,” asema Bwana.

31 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, zamagra'a zamagiteti havi kasnampa nanekema nehu'za, Anumzamo tamia naneke nehunema hu'za nehaza kasnampa vahera tamagerfa hu'na ha' rezamantegahue.

“Naam, mimi niko kinyume na manabii wanaotikisa ndimi zao wenyewe na kusema, ‘Bwana asema.’

32 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Ava'nama ke'naza zanku'ma havi kasnampa kema nehaza vahera ha' rezamantegahue. Zamagra havige hu'za vaheni'a rezamatga hu'za zamavare'za havi kante nevaze. Nagra ana vahera huhamparite'na huzamantoge'za ome'naze. Ana hu'neankino zamagrama haza zamo'a ama vahera zamaza osutfa nehie, huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.

Kweli, niko kinyume na hao wanaotabiri ndoto za uongo,” asema Bwana. “Wanazisimulia na kuwapotosha watu wangu kwa uongo wao bila kujali, lakini sikuwatuma wala sikuwaamuru. Hawawafaidi watu hawa hata kidogo,” asema Bwana.

33 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Jeremaianagura huno, Mago vahemo'o, mago kasnampa nemo'o, mago pristi vahemo'o kagrite'ma eno, henkama fore'ma hania zankura Ra Anumzamo'a mago'a kasnampa kea kasaminefi tasamioma hanagenka, mago kasnampa kea omneneanki, Ra Anumzamo'a tamatregahie hunka zamasamio.

“Wakati watu hawa, au nabii, au kuhani watakapokuuliza, ‘Mzigo wa Bwana ni nini?’ wewe utawaambia, ‘Ninyi ndio mzigo. Nami nitawavua kama vazi, asema Bwana.’

34 Hagi mago vahe'mo'o, mago kasnampa vahe'mo'o mago pristi vahemo'ma havigema huno ama kasnampa kea Ra Anumzamo nasamige'na huama nehuema huno hania vahera, Nagra ana vahe'ene noma'afima nemaniza naga'enena ana maka ranknaza zamigahue.

Nabii, kuhani, au mtu yeyote akisema, ‘Huu ndio mzigo wa Bwana,’ nitamwadhibu huyo na nyumba yake.

35 Hagi nagra Jeremaia'nama tamasami'nuana, tamafuhe'zane tamagri tavaonte'ma nemaniza vahe'enena amanage huta ontahige antahige hiho. Na'ane huno Ra Anumzamo'a kenona nehie nehuta, na'ane huno nanekea nehie? huta hiho.

Hivyo mnaambiana kila mmoja na mwenzake, au kwa mtu wa nyumba yao: ‘Bwana amejibu nini?’ au ‘Bwana amesema nini?’

36 Hianagi Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa kemo'a amanahu hune huta mago'enena huamara osiho. Na'ankure tamagra'a naneke huama nehuta, tagri Anumzama Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Anumzama kasefa'ma huno mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo nanekea eri akrahe krahu nehaze.

Lakini kamwe msiseme tena, ‘Nina mzigo wa Bwana,’ kwa sababu kila neno la mtu binafsi linakuwa mzigo wake mwenyewe, na hivyo kupotosha maneno ya Mungu aliye hai, Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, Mungu wetu.

37 Hagi mago vahemo'ma ana kema hania kasnampa vahe'ma antahigenakura amanage huno antahigeno. Na'ane huno Ra Anumzamo'a kenona huneganteno, na'ane huno nanekea kasami'ne?

Hivi ndivyo utakavyoendelea kumuuliza nabii: ‘Bwana amekujibu nini?’ au ‘Je, Bwana amesema nini?’

38 Hianagi tamagra huta ama'i Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa naneke huta nehazanagi, Nagra e'inahu nanekea osiho hu'na i'o huramante'noe. Hianagi Nagri kea eri netreta, ete ama'i Ra Anumzamofo kasnampa naneke huta nehaze.

Ingawa unadai, ‘Huu ndio mzigo wa Bwana,’ hili ndilo Bwana asemalo: Ulitumia maneno, ‘Huu ndio mzigo wa Bwana,’ hata ingawa nilikuambia kuwa kamwe usiseme, ‘Huu ni mzigo wa Bwana.’

39 E'ina hu'negu Nagra naganekani nezami'na, Nagri tava'ontetira tamaretufe atresugeta, tamafahe'ine tamagri'enema tami'noa rankumara atreta vugahaze.

Kwa hiyo, hakika nitakusahau na kukutupa mbali na uso wangu pamoja na mji niliowapa ninyi na baba zenu.

40 Hagi Nagra tamatrenugeta tamagaze zampi mani vava huta nevuta, havi tamagia erita vuvava nehuta anazankura tamagera okanigahaze.

Nitaleta juu yako fedheha ya kudumu: yaani aibu ya kudumu ambayo haitasahaulika.”
