Yeremiya 27
1 Ku ntandikwa y’obufuuzi bwa Zeddekiya mutabani wa Yosiya kabaka wa Yuda, ekigambo kino kyajjira Yeremiya okuva eri Mukama:
Ekuqaleni kokubusa kukaJehoyakhimi indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, kwafika lelilizwi kuJeremiya livela eNkosini, lisithi:
2 Bw’ati Mukama bwe yaŋŋamba nti: “Weekolere ekikoligo okiteeke ku nsingo yo,
Itsho njalo iNkosi kimi: Zenzele imichilo lamajogwe, ukugaxe entanyeni yakho,
3 oweereze ekigambo eri bakabaka ba Edomu, ne Mowaabu, ne Ammoni, ne Tuulo ne Sidoni, ng’otuma ababaka abazze mu Yerusaalemi eri Zeddekiya kabaka wa Yuda.
ukuthumele enkosini yeEdoma lenkosini yakoMowabi lenkosini yabantwana bakoAmoni lenkosini yeTire lenkosini yeSidoni, ngesandla sezithunywa ezifika eJerusalema kuZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda;
4 Tumira bakama baabwe obagambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, “Kino mukitegeeze bakama bammwe.
uzilaye ukuthi zithi emakhosini azo: Itsho njalo Nkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Lizakutsho njalo emakhosini enu:
5 N’amaanyi gange amangi n’omukono ogugoloddwa natonda ensi n’abantu baamu n’ensolo ezigiriko, era ngiwa omuntu yenna gwe njagala.
Mina ngenze umhlaba, umuntu, lenyamazana, okuphezu kobuso bomhlaba, ngamandla ami amakhulu langengalo yami eyeluliweyo, ngiwunike lowo okuqondileyo emehlweni ami.
6 Kaakano ŋŋenda kuwaayo amawanga gammwe eri omuddu wange Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni, n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko nzija kuziteeka wansi we.
Khathesi mina sengiwanikele wonke lamazwe esandleni sikaNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni inceku yami; njalo ngimnikile lenyamazana zeganga ukuthi zimsebenzele.
7 Amawanga gonna galimuweereza ne mutabani we ne muzzukulu we okutuusa ekiseera eky’ensi ye okusalirwa omusango lwe kirituuka; olwo amawanga mangi ne bakabaka bangi ab’amaanyi balimuwangula.
Lezizwe zonke zizasebenzela yena, lendodana yakhe, lendodana yendodana yakhe, kuze kufike isikhathi selakhe ilizwe uqobo; khona izizwe ezinengi lamakhosi amakhulu bezamkhonzisa.
8 “‘“Naye singa eggwanga lyonna oba obwakabaka bwonna tebuliweereza Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni oba okuteeka ensingo wansi w’ekikoligo ky’abwo, nzija kubonereza ensi eyo n’ekitala, n’ekyeya, ne kawumpuli, bw’ayogera Mukama, okutuusa lwe ndigizikiriza n’omukono gwange.
Kuzakuthi-ke isizwe lombuso okungayikumsebenzela yena, uNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, lokungayikubeka intamo yakho ngaphansi kwejogwe lenkosi yeBhabhiloni, lesosizwe ngizasijezisa, itsho iNkosi, ngenkemba langendlala langomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ngize ngikuqede ngesandla sakhe.
9 Noolwekyo bannabbi bammwe, n’abalaguzi, n’abavvuunuzi b’ebirooto, temubawuliriza wadde abalogo wadde abafumu ababagamba nti, ‘Temulibeera baddu ba kabaka w’e Babulooni.’
Lina-ke lingabalaleli abaprofethi benu labavumisi benu labaphuphi benu labachasisi bemibono benu labalumbi benu abakhuluma kini besithi: Kaliyikuyisebenzela inkosi yeBhabhiloni.
10 Baabawa bunnabbi bwa bulimba obunaabaleetera okutwalibwa ewala okuva mu mawanga gammwe. Ndibagobera wala era mulizikirira.
Ngoba baprofetha amanga kini, ukuze balisuse liye khatshana lelizwe lakini, lokuze ngilixotshe liphume, libhubhe.
11 Naye singa eggwanga lirikutamya ensingo yaalyo wansi w’ekikoligo kya kabaka w’e Babulooni limuweereze, nzija kuleka eggwanga eryo lisigale mu nsi yaalyo, okugirima, n’okugibeeramu, bw’ayogera Mukama.”’”
Kodwa isizwe esizangenisa intamo yaso ngaphansi kwejogwe lenkosi yeBhabhiloni, siyisebenzele, ngizasiyekela elizweni laso, itsho iNkosi, ukuthi silisebenze, sihlale kulo.
12 Nategeeza obubaka bwe bumu eri Zeddekiya kabaka wa Yuda nga ŋŋamba nti, “Kutamya ensingo yo wansi w’ekikoligo kya kabaka w’e Babulooni, beera omuddu we n’abantu be, onoobeera mulamu.
Ngakhuluma lakuZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda njengokwalawomazwi wonke ngathi: Ngenisani intamo zenu ngaphansi kwejogwe lenkosi yeBhabhiloni, lisebenzele yona labantu bayo, liphile.
13 Lwaki ggwe n’abantu bo mufa ekitala, n’ekyeya ne kawumpuli Mukama by’agambye okutuuka ku nsi yonna eteefuuke muddu wa kabaka w’e Babulooni?
Lizafelani, wena labantu bakho, ngenkemba, ngendlala, langomatshayabhuqe wesifo, njengokutsho kweNkosi mayelana lesizwe esingayikuyisebenzela inkosi yeBhabhiloni?
14 Towuliriza bigambo bya bannabbi abakugamba nti, ‘Tolibeera muddu wa kabaka w’e Babulooni,’ kubanga bakutegeeza bya bulimba.
Ngakho lingawalaleli amazwi abaprofethi abakhuluma kini besithi: Kaliyikuyisebenzela inkosi yeBhabhiloni; ngoba baprofetha amanga kini.
15 ‘Sibatumanga,’ bw’ayogera Mukama. ‘Bawa obunnabbi bwa bulimba mu linnya lyange. Noolwekyo, nzija kubagobera wala muzikirire, mmwe ne bannabbi ababategeeza obunnabbi.’”
Ngoba kangibathumanga, itsho iNkosi, kodwa baprofetha amanga ngebizo lami, ukuze ngilixotshe, libhubhe, lina labaprofethi abaprofetha kini.
16 Olwo ne ŋŋamba bakabona n’abantu bano bonna nti, “Kino Mukama ky’agamba nti, Temuwuliriza bannabbi abagamba nti, ‘Amangu ddala ebintu by’omu nnyumba ya Mukama bijja kukomezebwawo okuva mu Babulooni.’ Bababuulira bunnabbi bwa bulimba.
Ngasengikhuluma kubapristi lakulababantu bonke, ngisithi: Itsho njalo INkosi: Lingawalaleli amazwi abaprofethi benu abaprofetha kini besithi: Khangelani, izitsha zendlu yeNkosi zizabuyiswa khathesi masinyane zivela eBhabhiloni; ngoba baprofetha amanga kini.
17 Temubawuliriza. Muweereze kabaka w’e Babulooni, mubeere balamu. Lwaki ekibuga kino kifuuka amatongo?
Lingabalaleli; sebenzelani inkosi yeBhabhiloni, liphile. Kungani umuzi lo ube lunxiwa?
18 Bwe baba bannabbi nga balina ekigambo kya Mukama, leka bakaabirire Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti ebintu eby’omuwendo ebikyasigadde mu nnyumba ya Mukama ne mu lubiri lwa kabaka wa Yuda ne mu Yerusaalemi bireme kutwalibwa Babulooni.
Kodwa uba bengabaprofethi, njalo uba ilizwi leNkosi likubo, khathesi kabayincenge iNkosi yamabandla, ukuthi izitsha eziseleyo endlini yeNkosi lendlini yenkosi yakoJuda leJerusalema zingayi eBhabhiloni.
19 Kubanga bw’ati Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye bw’ayogera ku mpagi, n’Ennyanja, okuteekebwa ebintu, n’ebintu ebirala ebisigadde mu kibuga kino,
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla mayelana lezinsika, langolwandle, langezisekelo, langensali yezitsha ezisele kulumuzi,
20 kabaka Nebukadduneeza ow’e Babulooni by’ataatwala lwe yatwala Yekoyakini mutabani wa Yekoyakimu kabaka wa Yuda n’abakungu bonna aba Yuda ne Yerusaalemi.
uNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni angazithathanga, ekuthumbeni kwakhe uJekoniya indodana kaJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda eJerusalema emusa eBhabhiloni, lazo zonke izikhulu zakoJuda leJerusalema;
21 Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri ku bikwata ku bibya ebyasigala mu nnyumba ya Mukama ne mu lubiri olwa kabaka wa Yuda ne mu Yerusaalemi nti,
yebo, itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli mayelana lezitsha eziseleyo endlini kaJehova lendlini yenkosi yakoJuda leJerusalema:
22 ‘Biritwalibwa mu Babulooni eyo gye birisigala okutuusa ku lunaku lwe ndibikima, olwo ndibikomyawo mbizze mu kifo kino,’” bw’ayogera Mukama.
Zizasiwa eBhabhiloni, zibe khona kuze kube lusuku engizakuzihambela ngalo, itsho iNkosi; khona ngizazenyusa, ngizibuyisele kulindawo.
