Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi,
5 Antakamofo arimpafina kazeri forera osune'na ko kagrira kage'na antahi'na hu'noe. Hagi negarera'a kaseogante'nege'na ko kagrira kazerinte ruotage nehu'na, kokankoka vahete Nagri kasnampa vahe manigahane hu'na kagrira huhampri'noe.
“Ngingakakubumbi esiswini ngakwazi, ungakazalwa ngakukhetha ngakubeka ukuba ngumphrofethi ezizweni.”
6 Ana ke'ma hige'na nagra kenona hu'na, Ra Anumzana Anumzamoka nagra mensi kasefa mofavre mani'noanki'na, vahe avufima keagama hu'zana antahini osu'noe hu'na hu'noe.
Mina ngathi, “Awu Thixo Somandla; ukukhuluma angikwazi, ngoba ngingumntwana nje.”
7 Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne. Kagra mofavre mani'noe hunka osuo. Nagrama inantego vuoma hu'na hugantesua kumatega nevunka, maka nanekema kasamisuana ome huama hunka vahera zamasamigahane.
Kodwa uThixo wathi kimi, “Ungaze wathi, ‘Ngingumntwana nje.’ Kumele uye kubo bonke engikuthuma kubo njalo utsho loba kuyini engikulaya khona.
8 Hagi mago vahekura kagra korera osuo. Na'ankure Nagra kagrane manine'na kegava hugantegahue huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
Ungabesabi, ngoba mina ngilawe njalo ngizakuhlenga,” kutsho uThixo.
9 Anagema huteno'a Ra Anumzamo'a azana antegamateno nagite avako nehuno amanage hu'ne, antahio, menina Nagra nanekeni'a kagri kagipi ama nentoe.
UThixo waseselula isandla sakhe wathinta umlomo wami wathi kimi, “Khathesi, sengifake amazwi ami emlonyeni wakho.
10 Hagi menina Nagra kagrira huhampruankinka, kokankoka vahete'ene kinimo'ma kegavama hu'nea mopafinena vano nehunka, ko'ma me'nesiazana eri tasagi hune atrenka, ko'ma menesiazana eri taganavinetrenka, ko'ma me'nesiazana eri haviza hunetrenka, ko'ma me'nesiazana eri akaha hunetrenka, kasefaza eri otinka neginka, kasefaza hankregahane.
Khangela, lamhla ngikubeka phezu kwezizwe lemibuso ukuba usiphune udilize, ubhubhise njalo uchithe; ukuba wakhe njalo uhlanyele.”
11 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nantahige'ne. Jeremaiaga na'a negane? Huno hige'na nagra hu'na, Almoni zafamofo azankuna'a negoe hu'na hu'noe.
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lathi, “Kuyini okubonayo, Jeremiya?” Ngaphendula ngathi, “Ngibona ugatsha lwesihlahla se-alimondi.”
12 Anagema hugeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Ha tamage hunka keama hane. Hagi Nagra keni'are navu ante'na ke'nesanugeno maka zama fore hugahie hu'nama hu'noa nanekemo'a nena raga'a regahie.
UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Ubone kuhle, ngoba ngilindele ukubona ukuthi ilizwi lami ligcwalisekile.”
13 Hagi anante Ra Anumzano'a mago'ene ete nantahigeno, Menina na'a kane? Hige'na nagra kenona hu'na, kavofi me'neno krakra nehia timo noti kazigati ruvarehi ramino tagrama mani'nontega e'za nehige'na negoe.
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi futhi: “Kuyini okubonayo?” Mina ngaphendula ngathi, “Ngibona imbiza ebilayo, ithambeke ifulathele inyakatho.”
14 Anagema hugeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a huno, E'i ana zama kanana noti kazigati ranknazamo'a ru herafiramino eno ama mopafima nemaniza vahera eme zamazeri haviza hugahie.
UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Incithakalo evela enyakatho izakwehliselwa phezu kwabo bonke abahlala elizweni.
15 Hagi antahio, Nagra noti kazigama me'nea moparamima kegavama hu'naza kini vahetamina ke hanuge'za e'za, Jerusalemi rankumamofo kafaraminte kini trazamia eme ante'za nemani'za, Jerusalemi rankumamofo vihu kegina eme kegava nehu'za maka Juda mopafima me'nea kumataminena kegava hugahaze.
Sekuseduze ukuba ngibize bonke abantu bemibuso yasenyakatho,” kutsho uThixo. “Amakhosi abo azakuza amise izihlalo zawo zobukhosi emasangweni aseJerusalema; bazakumelana lemiduli yalo yonke eligombolozeleyo kanye lamadolobho wonke akoJuda.
16 Hagi e'inahu zama hanua zamo'a, Nagri vahe'mo'zama havi zamavu zamava'ma hu'naza zante keaga huzmante'na anara hugahue. Na'ankure zamagra Nagrira zamefi hunenami'za vu'za, zamazanteti'ma tro'ma hunte'naza havi anumzante kresramna nevu'za monora hunte'naze.
Ngizamemezela ukwahlulela kwami ebantwini bami ngenxa yobubi babo bokungidela, betshisela abanye onkulunkulu impepha, langokukhonza lokho okwenziwa ngezandla zabo.
17 Hagi kagra Jeremaiaga otinka retrotra hunka, Nagrama huoma hu'na hugantoa nanekea vahera maka ome zamasamio. Kagra zamagrikura korora osuo. Hagi kagrama koro'ma hananke'na zamagri zamavuga kazeri koro hugahue.
Wena zilungiselele! Sukuma ubatshele lokho engizakulaya khona. Ungathuthumeliswa yibo hlezi ngikwenze uthuthumele phambi kwabo.
18 Hagi Jeremaiaga antahio, mago rankumamofoma hanave vihu keginama hu kagizankna hu'na kagrira menina kazeri hanavenetina, aenireti fumaza zafa retru rentazankna kagrira nehu'na, bronsireti kuma kegina hugagi zankna hugahue. Ana hanugenka kagra oti hankave ti'nesanke'za, maka ama ana mopafi vahemo'zane Juda kini vahemo'zane, kva vahemo'zane, pristi vahemo'zane, Juda vahe'mo'zanena kazeri fenkami otregahaze.
Lamhla sengikwenze waba lidolobho elivikelweyo, insika yensimbi lomduli wethusi ukuba umelane lelizwe lonke, umelane lamakhosi akoJuda, izikhulu zakhona, abaphristi bakhona kanye labantu bakhona.
19 Hagi zamagra hara hugantegahazanagi, hara hugagate oregahaze. Na'ankure Nagra kagrane mani'nena kaguvazigahue huno Ra Anumzamo'a huama hu'ne.
Bazakulwa lawe, kodwa kabayikukwehlula, ngoba ngilawe njalo ngizakuhlenga,” kutsho uThixo.
