“Ikiwa utataka kurudi, ee Israeli, nirudie mimi,” asema Bwana. “Ikiwa utaondoa sanamu zako za kuchukiza mbele ya macho yangu na usiendelee kutangatanga,
2 Hagi tamagrama fatgo huno refkohu avu'ava nehuta, fatgo avu'ava'ma nehuta kasefa hu'na mani'noa Anumzamo'na nagifima huvempama hanage'na, Nagra asomu huramantenuge'za ruga'a vahe'mo'zama nege'za, e'ima hanaza hunka asomu huranto hu'za eme nehu'za, Nagri nagi'a ahentesga hugahaze.
ikiwa kwa kweli, kwa haki na kwa unyofu utaapa, ‘Kwa hakika kama vile Bwana aishivyo,’ ndipo mataifa yatakapobarikiwa naye na katika yeye watajitukuza.”
3 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemi vaheku'enena hu'ne. Avimzana ave've trazampina ohankreta, hankave mopamo'ma nehiaza huno tamagu'amo'ma hankavema ti'neazana, rekorita rupopo huteta avimzana aseho.
Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana kwa watu wa Yuda na kwa Yerusalemu: “Vunjeni mabonge kwenye mashamba yenu, wala msipande katikati ya miiba.
4 Hagi Juda vahe'motane Jerusalemi vahe'motanena havi tamagutamagesa atreta tamagu'a rukrahe hiho. A'nama osnazana Nagri narimpa he'zamo'a tevemo hiaza huno rukru hina, mago vahe'mo'a rusura osugahie. Na'ankure tamagra kefo avu'ava'ma hu'naza zante anara hugahue.
Jitahirini katika Bwana, tahirini mioyo yenu, enyi wanaume wa Yuda na watu wa Yerusalemu, la sivyo ghadhabu yangu itatoka kwa nguvu na kuwaka kama moto kwa sababu ya uovu mliotenda, ikiwaka pasipo wa kuizima.
5 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Juda vahe'ene Jerusalemi vaheku'enena amanage hunka zamasamio hu'ne. Amama mani'naza mopamofo agu'afina maka kaziga ufena nereta, ranke huta kezatita amanage hiho. Maka vahera eme eri tru hutenketa, koro freta hankave vihu keginama hu kagi'naza kumatamimpi ufresune huta hiho!
“Tangaza katika Yuda na upige mbiu katika Yerusalemu na kusema: ‘Piga tarumbeta katika nchi yote!’ Piga kelele na kusema: ‘Kusanyikeni pamoja! Tukimbilie katika miji yenye maboma!’
6 Hagi mago avame zana flekia tro huteta anamifi erintesga huta nevuta, Jerusalemi kumapima mani'naza vahera amanage huta korokea huzamiho. Ame huta koro freta vuta fra'ma kisaza kumaku hakeho. Na'ankure Nagra noti kazigati ranknaza atre'nugeno eno eme tamazeri haviza hugahie.
Onyesheni ishara ili kwenda Sayuni! Kimbilieni usalama pasipo kuchelewa! Kwa kuwa ninaleta maafa kutoka kaskazini, maangamizi ya kutisha.”
7 Hagi laionimo frakino mani'nefinti atiramiaza huno, ha' vahe'mo'za kumazamifintira e'za tamagri kumara eme eri haviza hugahaze.

Simba ametoka nje ya pango lake, mharabu wa mataifa amejipanga. Ametoka mahali pake ili aangamize nchi yenu. Miji yenu itakuwa magofu pasipo mtu wa kuishi humo.
8 E'ina hu'negu tamagra tamasunku kukena nentanita, tamasunku huta tusi zavi krafage hiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a tusi arimpa aheneranteankino, ana rimpa ahezamo'a mevava huno nevie.
Hivyo vaeni nguo za magunia, ombolezeni na kulia kwa huzuni, kwa kuwa hasira kali ya Bwana haijaondolewa kwetu.
9 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, anazama fore'ma hania knafina kini vahe'ene kva vahe'mo'zanena, antri nehanageno muha zazamia omanegahie. Ana nehanage'za pristi vahe'mo'za tusi koro nehanage'za, kasnampa vahe'mo'za antahintahi hakare nehu'za mago nanekea osugahaze.
“Katika siku ile,” asema Bwana “mfalme na maafisa watakata tamaa, makuhani watafadhaika, na manabii watashangazwa mno.”
10 Hagi anante nagra amanage hu'na hu'noe. Ra Anumzamoka Jerusalemi kumapi vaheku'ma hunka, tamarimpa frune knare huta manigahaze hunka'ma hu'nana kegura, zamagra hu'za agra reravatga hu'neankino, ha' vahe'mo'za bainati kazinteti tananke eme rukafari'za nehaze hu'za nehaze.
Ndipo niliposema, “Aa, Bwana Mwenyezi, umewadanganyaje kabisa watu hawa na Yerusalemu kwa kusema, ‘Mtakuwa na amani,’ wakati upanga uko kwenye koo zetu!”
11 Hagi mago kna ne-eankino Ra Anumzamo'a Jerusalemi vahekura huno, hagage kokampima me'nea agonaramimpinti amuhonentake zaho'mo zahora erino nagri vahetera egahie. E'ina zahora zamana zamana hu'neno witi honama eri neharea zahora omane'neanki,
Wakati huo watu hawa na Yerusalemu wataambiwa, “Upepo wa moto kutoka miinuko iliyo kame katika jangwa unavuma kuelekea watu wangu, lakini sio kupepeta au kutakasa,
12 e'i ana zahora Nagra hunta'nena egahiankino, hankavenentake zaho atufeno egahie. Ana nehu'na Nagra ana vahera keaga huzamantegahue.
upepo wenye nguvu sana kuliko wa kupepeta na kutakasa utakuja kwa amri yangu. Sasa natangaza hukumu zangu dhidi yao.”
13 Hagi anante nagra Jeremaia'na amanage hu'na vahera zamasami'noe. Keho, ha'ma hurantesia ne'mo'a ko'ma runaku'ma nehia hampomo rehanintiri hiankna huno tagrama mani'nontega ne-e.

Anazama nege'na hazenkefi manunankita haviza hu'none hu'na hu'noe.
Tazama! Anakuja kama mawingu, magari yake yanakuja kama upepo wa kisulisuli, farasi wake wana mbio kuliko tai. Ole wetu! Tunaangamia!
14 Hagi tamagra Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahe'mota, kefo avu'ava zama nehaza zana atreta tamagu'a eri agru hiho. E'ina'ma hanuta tamagu vazi'zana erigahaze. Nama'a zupa tamagra kefo antahi'zana atre'nageno tamagu'afina meno vugahie.
Ee Yerusalemu, usafishe uovu kutoka moyoni mwako na uokolewe. Utaendelea kuficha mawazo mapotovu mpaka lini?
15 Hagi tamagrite'ma fore'ma hania knazamofo nanekema eri'za eme huama hunaku'ma neaza vahera, Dani kumateti'ene Efraemi agona kokampima me'nea kumatamimpi vahe'mo'za eri'za neaze.
Sauti inatangaza kutoka Dani, ikipiga mbiu ya maafa kutoka vilima vya Efraimu.
16 Hagi ana vahera Anumzamo'a zamasamino, ana mopafima mani kagi'naza vahetamine, Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahetaminena amanage huta zamasamiho, Afete moparegati ha' vahe'mo'za ibige nehu'za Juda mopafima me'nea ranra kumatamina hahu zamantenaku neaze huta hiho.
“Waambie mataifa jambo hili, piga mbiu hii dhidi ya Yerusalemu: ‘Jeshi la kuzingira linakuja kutoka nchi ya mbali, likipiga kelele ya vita dhidi ya miji ya Yuda.
17 Ana ha' vahe'mo'za e'za Jerusalemi kumara, hozare kegava nehaza vahe kna hu'za kumatamia eme avazagi kagigahaze. Na'ankure Jerusalema nemaniza vahe'mo'zama Nagri nanekema ru hantagi'za ha'ma renante'naza zante anara huzmantegahaze huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
Wamemzunguka kama watu walindao shamba, kwa sababu amefanya uasi dhidi yangu,’” asema Bwana.
18 Hagi tamagrama manita azafima hu'naza hazenkere ama ana knazamo'a tamagritera egahie. Ana hugahiankino ana knazamo'a tusi'a akama hiankna huno tamata neramino tumo'tamia retanegahie.
“Mwenendo wako na matendo yako mwenyewe yameleta haya juu yako. Hii ndiyo adhabu yako. Tazama jinsi ilivyo chungu! Tazama jinsi inavyochoma moyo!”
19 Hige'na nagra Jeremaia'na anankema nentahugeno'a, nagu'amo'a razampi nata negrigeno, tumonimo'a vagri vagri nehige'na mani so'ea osu'noe. Na'ankure ha' vahe'mo'za ha' eri'za ne-eza, ibige nehu'za ufema neraza agasasagema nentahugeno anara hu'ne.
Ee mtima wangu, mtima wangu! Ninagaagaa kwa maumivu. Ee maumivu makuu ya moyo wangu! Moyo wangu umefadhaika ndani yangu, siwezi kunyamaza. Kwa sababu nimesikia sauti ya tarumbeta, nimesikia kelele ya vita.

Maafa baada ya maafa, nchi yote imekuwa magofu. Kwa ghafula mahema yangu yameangamizwa, makazi yangu kwa muda mfupi.
21 Hagi ha' vahe'mo'za nazupa krauefa (fleki) zamia erikasi atre'za nevanage'na negesugeno ibigema nehu'za ufema neraza agasasankea ome vagaregahie?
Hata lini nitaendelea kuona bendera ya vita na kusikia sauti za tarumbeta?
22 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, hago Nagri vahe'mo'za negi nene'za Nagrira ke'za antahi'za osaze. Ana nehu'za ne'onse mofavre naga'mo'zama nehazaza hu'za ama' antahi'zana e'orize. Hagi zamagra havi avu'ava zama hu'zantera knare hu'nazanagi, fatgo avu'ava zama hu'zana ontahi'naze.
“Watu wangu ni wapumbavu, hawanijui mimi. Ni watoto wasio na akili, hawana ufahamu. Ni hodari kutenda mabaya, hawajui kutenda yaliyo mema.”
23 Hagi nagra ama mopafima ke'noana mago zana omanetfa higeno, menima me'neankna huno omane'neanki mopamo'a avugosa osu'ne. Ana hige'na monare'ma koana remsama nehia tavitamina omane'ne.
Niliitazama dunia, nayo haikuwa na umbo tena ni tupu; niliziangalia mbingu, mianga ilikuwa imetoweka.
24 Hagi ranra agonaramine ne'onse agonaramima zamagoana imi enerigeno, tore vare nehazage'na ke'noe.
Niliitazama milima, nayo ilikuwa ikitetemeka, vilima vyote vilikuwa vikiyumbayumba.
25 Hagi anama nehige'nama keganti kegamama hu'na koana, magore hu'na vahera ozamage'noe. Ana higeno maka namamo'za hare'za fre vagare'naze.
Nilitazama, wala watu hawakuwepo; kila ndege wa angani alikuwa ameruka zake.
26 Hagi nagrama koana ko'ma afovage nehuno masavenke huno tretre'ma hu'nea mopamo'a menina hagege huno ka'ma kokankna higeno, miko rankuma tamimo'a haviza huvagare'ne. E'ina zantamima fore'ma hu'neana Ra Anumzamo tusi rimpa ahezamantegeno anara hu'ne.
Nilitazama, hata nchi iliyokuwa imestawi vizuri imekuwa jangwa, miji yake yote ilikuwa magofu mbele za Bwana, mbele ya hasira yake kali.
27 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne. Nagra amama mani'naza mopa maka eri haviza hugahuanagi, ana makara eri haviza huvaga oregahue.
Hivi ndivyo Bwana asemavyo: “Nchi yote itaharibiwa, ingawa sitaiangamiza kabisa.
28 E'ina agafare mopamo'a zavi krafa nehanigeno, monamo'a evuno hanintiri hugahie. Na'ankure nagra henkama fore'ma hania zana ko huama hu'noanki'na, antahizani'a ete eri rukrahera osugahue.
Kwa hiyo dunia itaomboleza na mbingu zilizo juu zitakuwa giza, kwa sababu nimesema nami sitarudi nyuma, nimeamua na wala sitageuka.”
29 Hagi hahunaku hosi agumpi mani'za neaza sondia vahe'ene, atifi keve erinte'za nehaza sondia vahe'mokizmi zamagasasankema nentahi'za, maka rankumatamimpima nemaniza vahe'mo'za kumara atre'za avonompine, have agonafine frazageno magore huno ana kumatamimpina vahera omanitfa hu'ne.
Kwa sauti ya wapanda farasi na wapiga upinde kila mji unakimbia. Baadhi wanakimbilia vichakani, baadhi wanapanda juu ya miamba. Miji yote imeachwa, hakuna aishiye ndani yake.
30 Hagi maka zanka'ama aguzama eme neruza maka zanka'ama eri hana'ma hu'za nevaza vahe'moka kagra na'a hugahane?

Unafanya nini, ewe uliyeharibiwa? Kwa nini unajivika vazi jekundu na kuvaa vito vya dhahabu? Kwa nini unapaka macho yako rangi? Unajipamba bure. Wapenzi wako wanakudharau, wanautafuta uhai wako.
31 Hagi mago a'mo ese kna'a mofavrema anteku'ma nehigeno ata negrigeno krafama nehiankna krafage nentahue. Ana hu'neankino Saioni kumapi vahe'mo'za zamasimu ante'zanku nehu'za, kezati'za ha' vahe'mo'za nahe friku nehazanki eme naza huo, naza huo hu'za nehaze.
Nasikia kilio kama cha mwanamke katika utungu wa kuzaa, kilio cha uchungu kama cha anayemzaa mtoto wake wa kwanza: kilio cha Binti Sayuni akitweta ili aweze kupumua, akiinua mikono yake, akisema, “Ole wangu! Ninazimia; maisha yangu yamekabidhiwa kwa wauaji.”
