< Jeremi 45 >
1 Tango Baruki asilisaki kokoma kati na mokanda makambo oyo Jeremi atindaki ye, na mobu ya minei ya bokonzi ya Yeoyakimi, mwana mobali ya Joziasi, mokonzi ya Yuda, mosakoli Jeremi alobaki na Baruki, mwana mobali ya Neriya, maloba oyo:
Ilizwi uJeremiya umprofethi alikhuluma kuBharukhi indodana kaNeriya, ekubhaleni kwakhe lamazwi egwalweni evela emlonyeni kaJeremiya, ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakhimi, indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, lisithi:
2 « Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, azali koloba na yo Baruki:
Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kuwe Bharukhi:
3 Olobaki: ‹ Mawa na ngai! Yawe abakisi pasi mpe minyoko na ngai; nalembi likolo ya kolela mpe nazali lisusu na kimia te! ›
Uthi wena: Hawu maye mina, ngoba iNkosi yengezelela usizi ebuhlungwini bami, sengikhathele yikububula kwami, njalo kangitholi ukuphumula.
4 Kasi Yawe alobaki na ngai: Loba na ye: ‹ Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Nakokweyisa biloko nyonso oyo natongaki mpe nakopikola biloko nyonso oyo nalonaki kati na mokili oyo.
Uzakutsho njalo kuye: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, lokho engikwakhileyo ngiyakudiliza, lalokho engikuhlanyeleyo ngiyakusiphuna; yebo, ilizwe leli lonke.
5 Boni, olingi koluka makambo minene mpo na yo moko? Te! Koluka yango te! Pamba te nakomemela bato nyonso pasi, elobi Yawe, kasi nakobikisa yo na bisika nyonso oyo okokende. › »
