UJeremiya 11
1 Leli yilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela kuThixo lisithi:
Esiae nye gbe si tso Yehowa gbɔ va na Yeremia.
2 “Zwana izimiso zesivumelwano lesi uzitshele abantu bakoJuda lalabo abahlala eJerusalema.
“Ɖo to nubabla sia me nyawo ne nàgblɔ wo na Yudatɔwo kple ame siwo le Yerusalem.
3 Batshele uthi uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: ‘Uqalekisiwe umuntu ongalandeli izimiso zesivumelwano lesi,
Gblɔ na wo be ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Fiƒode le ame si mewɔ ɖe nubabla sia me nyawo dzi o la dzi.
4 izimiso engalaya ngazo okhokho benu ekubakhupheni kwami eGibhithe, esasiyisithando sokuncibilikisa insimbi.’ Ngathi, ‘Lalelani ilizwi lami lenze konke engililaya khona, lizakuba ngabantu bami, mina ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu.
Nya siwo ƒe se mede na mia fofowo esi mekplɔ wo do goe tso Egipte, tso galolõkpodzo me.’ Megblɔ be, ‘Miɖo tom, miwɔ nu siwo katã meɖo na mi, ekema mianye nye dukɔ eye nye hã manye miaƒe Mawu.
5 Lapho-ke ngizagcwalisa isifungo sami engasifunga kubokhokho benu, ukubanika ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju,’ ilizwe elihlezi kulo khathesi.” Ngaphendula ngathi, “Akube njalo Thixo.”
Ekema mawɔ ɖe atam si meka na mia fofowo be matsɔ anyigba si le dzidzim kple notsi kple anyitsi na wo la dzi.’ Esiae nye anyigba si dzi miele egbea.” Meɖo eŋu be, “Amen, Yehowa.”
6 UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Memezela wonke amazwi la emadolobheni akoJuda lasemigwaqweni yaseJerusalema uthi: ‘Zwanini izimiso zesivumelwano lesi lizilandele.
Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Ɖe gbeƒã nya siawo katã le Yuda duwo kple Yerusalem ƒe ablɔwo dzi be ‘Miɖo to nubabla sia me nyawo ne mialé wo me ɖe asi.
7 Kusukela ekukhupheni kwami okhokho benu eGibhithe kuze kube lamhla, ngabalaya njalonjalo ngisithi, “Lalelani ilizwi lami.”
Tso gbe si gbe mekplɔ mia fofowo do goe tso Egipte va se ɖe egbe sia la, mexlɔ̃ nu wo zi geɖe be, “Miɖo tom.”
8 Kodwa kabazange balalele kumbe banake; esikhundleni salokho, bona balandela inkani yezinhliziyo zabo ezimbi. Ngakho ngabehlisela zonke izithuko zesivumelwano engangibalaye ukuba basilandele kodwa kabaze basigcina.’”
Ke womeɖo to alo see nam o, ke boŋ wodze woƒe dzi vɔ̃ɖiwo ƒe tosesẽ yome. Ale mehe fiƒode siwo katã megblɔ da ɖi ɖe nubabla la dzi dalawo ŋu la va wo dzi.’”
9 UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Kulokuhlamuka okukhona ebantwini bakoJuda lakulabo abahlala eJerusalema.
Tete Yehowa gblɔ nam be, “Nugbeɖoɖo aɖe le Yudatɔwo kple Yerusalem nɔlawo dome.
10 Sebebuyele ezonweni zabokhokho babo, abalayo ukulalela amazwi ami. Balandele abanye onkulunkulu ukuba babakhonze. Indlu ka-Israyeli lendlu kaJuda, zombili zisephule isivumelwano engasenza labokhokho bazo.
Wotrɔ yi wo fofowo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo gbɔ, ame siwo gbe nye gbe sese. Wokplɔ mawu bubuwo ɖo be yewoasubɔ wo. Israel ƒe aƒe la kple Yuda ƒe aƒe la siaa tu nubabla si mewɔ kple wo fofowo.
11 Ngakho nanku akutshoyo uThixo: ‘Ngizabehlisela umonakalo abangeke baphephe kuwo. Lanxa sebekhala kimi kangiyikubalalela.
Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔe nye si, ‘Mahe gbegblẽ si nu womate ŋu asi le o la ava wo dzi togbɔ be woado ɣli ayɔm hã la, nyematɔ na wo o.
12 Amadolobho akoJuda labantu baseJerusalema bazakuyakhala kubonkulunkulu ababatshisela impepha, kodwa kabasoze babasize ngalutho lapho uhlupho selubehlela.
Yuda ƒe duwo kple Yerusalem nɔlawo afa avi na woƒe mawu siwo wodoa dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ na gake womate ŋu akpe ɖe wo ŋuti ne gbegblẽ siawo katã va ƒo ɖi o.
13 Wena Juda ubunengi babonkulunkulu bakho bunjengobamadolobho akho, njalo lama-alithare owakhele ukutshisela impepha kulowonkulunkulu olihlazo, uBhali, ubunengi bawo bunjengobemigwaqo yaseJerusalema.’
O Yuda, wò mawuwo sɔ gbɔ abe wò duwo ene, eye nuxeƒe siwo nèɖo be yeanɔ dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ dom na ŋukpenamawu, Baal la sɔ gbɔ abe Yerusalem ƒe ablɔwo ene.’
14 Abantu laba ungabakhulekeli kumbe ubakhulumele loba ubacelele, ngoba angiyikulalela lapho bekhala kimi esikhathini sokuhlupheka kwabo.
“Mègado gbe ɖa ɖe ame siawo ta o, mègaɖe kuku ɖe wo nu o, eye mègabia naneke na wo o, elabena ne woyɔm le xaxaɣi la, nyemaɖo to wo o.
15 Othandekayo wami wenzani ethempelini lami eceba amaqhinga amabi labanengi? Kambe inyama ebusisiweyo ingaphuthisa ukujeziswa kwakho na? Lapho uphatheka ngobubi bakho, uyajabula.”
“Nu ka wɔm nye lɔlɔ̃tɔ le le nye gbedoxɔ la me, le esime wowɔ nu tovowo kple ame geɖewo? Ɖe wò vɔsalã kɔkɔewo ate ŋu aɖe wò le tohehe mea? Elabena ne èle nu tovowo wɔm la, dzi nɔa dzɔwòm.”
16 UThixo wakubiza ngokuthi uyisihlahla se-oliva esihlumileyo esilezithelo ezinhle. Kodwa ngokuhlokoma kwesiphepho esikhulu uzasithungela ngomlilo, ingatsha zaso zephuke.
Yehowa na ŋkɔ wò be amiti dama si dzi kutsetse nyuiwo le. Gake le gbeɖeɖe aɖe abe ahom sesẽ ene me la, ana dzo afiae eye eƒe alɔdzewo hã afia keŋkeŋ.
17 UThixo uSomandla, owakuhlanyelayo, usememezele umonakalo kuwe, ngoba indlu ka-Israyeli lendlu kaJuda zenze okubi zangithukuthelisa ngokutshisela uBhali impepha.
Yehowa Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ame si li ke wò la ɖo gbegblẽ ɖe ŋuwò elabena Israel ƒe aƒe kple Yuda ƒe aƒe wɔ vɔ̃ eye wodo dziku nɛ le ale si wodo dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ na Baal la ta.
18 Ngenxa yokuthi uThixo waveza icebo labo kimi, ngalazi, ngoba ngalesosikhathi wangitshengisa ababekwenza.
Esime Yehowa ɖe woƒe nugbeɖoɖowo fiam la, menyae, elabena le ɣe ma yi la, efia nu siwo wɔm wonɔ lam.
19 Ngangifana lewundlu elithambileyo lisiwa ekuhlatshweni; ngangingazi ukuthi basebebumbe icebo ngami, besithi, “Kasiqumeni isihlahla kanye lezithelo zaso; kasimsuseni elizweni labaphilayo, ukuze ibizo lakhe lingakhunjulwa futhi.”
Menɔ abe alẽvi si wokplɔ yina wuwu ge la ene; nyemekpɔe dze sii be woɖo nugbe ɖe ŋutinye le gbɔgblɔm be, “Mina míagblẽ ati la kple eƒe kutsetse, mina míaɖee ɖa le agbagbeawo ƒe anyigba dzi, ale be womagaɖo ŋku eƒe ŋkɔ dzi gbeɖegbeɖe o.”
20 Kodwa, wena, Thixo Somandla, wena owahlulela ngokulunga njalo uhlola inhliziyo lengqondo, yenza ngibone ukuphindisela kwakho kubo, ngoba isisusa sami ngisinikela kuwe.
Ke, O Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, wò ame si drɔ̃a ʋɔnu dzɔdzɔe, doa dzi kple tamesusu kpɔ la, na makpɔ wò hlɔ̃biabia si le wo dzi va ge elabena asiwò me metsɔ nye nya dee.
21 Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo mayelana labantu base-Anathothi abafuna ukukubulala besithi, “Ungaphrofethi ngebizo likaThixo funa sikubulale”
“Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔ tso Anatɔt ŋutsuwo, ame siwo le wò agbe yome tim eye wole gbɔgblɔm be, ‘Mègagblɔ nya ɖi le Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ me o, ne menye nenema o la, míawu wò.’
22 ngakho uThixo uSomandla uthi: “Ngizabajezisa. Amajaha akibo azabulawa yinkemba, amadodana lamadodakazi abo abulawe yindlala.
Le esia ta, ale Yehowa Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: ‘Mahe to na wo. Woƒe ɖekakpuiwo atsi yi nu, dɔwuame atsrɔ̃ wo viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo.
23 Akuyikuba khona osalayo kubo, ngoba ngizaletha incithakalo ebantwini base-Anathothi ngomnyaka wokujeziswa kwabo.”
Ame aɖeke masusɔ o, elabena mahe dzɔgbevɔ̃e gã aɖe ada ɖe Anatɔt ŋutsuwo dzi le ƒe si meɖo be mahe to na wo la me.’”
