UJeremiya 16
1 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
Nimb’amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
2 “Ungathathi mfazi ube lamadodana loba amadodakazi kule indawo.”
Ko mañenga valy, ko misamak’ ana-dahy ndra anak’ampela an-toetse atoy.
3 Ngoba mayelana lamadodana lamadodakazi azalelwe kulelilizwe kanye labesifazane abangonina lamadoda angoyise uThixo uthi:
Fa hoe t’Iehovà ty amo ana-dahy naho anak’ampela terake ami’ty toetse toio, naho i rene’e nisamake iareo, naho i rae’e nampiareñe iareo an-tane atoiy:
4 “Bazakufa bebulawa yimikhuhlane eyesabekayo. Kabayikukhalelwa loba bangcwatshwe, kodwa bazakuba njengezibi emhlabathini. Bazabhubha ngenkemba langendlala, njalo izidumbu zabo zizakuba yikudla kwezinyoni zasemoyeni lezinyamazana zeganga.”
T’ie hivetrak’ am-pikoromahañe mahaferenay, tsy eo ty handala, tsy haleveñe, fa hapoke hoe forompotse ambone-tane eo, ho zamane’ ty fibara naho ty saliko; ho hane’ o voron-dikerañeo naho o biby an-tane atoio ty lolo’ iareo.
5 Ngoba nanku akutshoyo uThixo: “Ungangeni endlini elokudla kwesililo; ungayilila kumbe utshengisele uzwelo, ngoba isibusiso sami, lothando lwami kanye lesihawu sami, sengikususile kulababantu,” kutsho uThixo.
Le hoe t’Iehovà: Ko iziliha’o ty anjombam-pandalàñe, ko mb’eo hirovetse ndra hañohò; fa nafahako am’ ondaty retoa ty fanintsiñako, hoe t’Iehovà, ty fiferenaiñako naho ty fitretrezako.
6 “Bonke abaphakemeyo labantukazana bazakufa kulelilizwe. Kabayikungcwatshwa kumbe bakhalelwe, njalo kakho ozazisika kumbe aphuce ikhanda lakhe ngenxa yabo.
Songa hivetrak’ an-tane atoy ty kede naho ty bey; tsy haleveñe, tsy hirovetañe, tsy handilian-tsandriñe, tsy hañitsifañe;
7 Kakho ozabanika ukudla ukuba abaduduze labo abalilela ofileyo, loba kunguyise kumbe unina, kakho lozabanika amanzi ukuba abaduduze.
Tsy hamolahañe mofo ty mpandala, hampanintsiñe aze ty amy raza’ey; tsy hanjotsoañe fitovim-pañohòañe hinoma’e ty aman-drae’e ndra rene’e.
8 Njalo ungangeni endlini eledili ukuba uhlale phansi udle unathe.
Ko imoaha’o ka ze anjomba manao sabadidake, iambesara’o, hikama ndra hinoñe.
9 Ngoba uThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Phambi kobuso bakho njalo ensukwini zakho ngizawuqeda umsindo wentokozo lokuthaba kanye lamazwi abalobokazi labayeni kule indawo.
Fa hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Toe hajiko an-toetse atoy, añatrefam-pihaino’o eo naho amo andro’oo, ty feon-kafaleañe, naho ty feom-pirebehañe, naho ty fiarañanaña’ i mpañengay vaho ty fiarañanaña’ i engañey.
10 Lapho abantu laba ubatshela konke lokhu besebekubuza besithi, ‘Kungani uThixo esemise ukusehlisela inkemenkeme engaka na? Senze bubi bani na? Sono bani esisenze kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu?’
Aa ie saontsie’o am’ondaty retoa o tsara iaby zao, vaho manao ty hoe ama’o iereo, Akore te zahay ro nitsarà’ Iehovà o hankàñe jabajaba zao? Ino o hakeo’aio? Ino ty tahiñe nanoe’ay amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay?
11 wena wothi kubo, ‘Kungenxa yokuthi okhokho benu bangifulathela,’ kutsho uThixo, ‘njalo balandela abanye onkulunkulu babasebenzela, babakhonza. Bangifulathela njalo kabayigcinanga imithetho yami.
Le ty hoe ty havale’o ami’iereo: Amy te nifarien-droae’areo raho hoe t’Iehovà, naho nanjontike mb’aman ‘ndrahare ila’e, nitoroñe iareo naho nitalahoañe, fe nieng’ahy, vaho tsy mañambeñe i Hà-koy.
12 Kodwa lina selenze okubi kakhulu kulabokhokho benu. Khangelani ukuthi lowo lalowo wenu uyilandela njani inkani yenhliziyo yakhe embi esikhundleni sokuthi angilalele.
Lombolombo ty nanoen-droae’ areo ty haratiañe nanoe’ areo, songa mañorike ty fanjeharan-tro’e raty, fa tsy mañaoñe ahy.
13 Ngakho ngizalilahlela ngaphandle kwalelilizwe elizweni lina loba oyihlo abangazange balazi, lapho elizakhonza khona abanye onkulunkulu emini lebusuku, ngoba angiyikuba lomusa kini.’”
Aa le hahifike boak’an-tane atoy mb’an-tane tsy nifohi’ areo ndra o rae’ areoo; añe nahareo ro hitoron-drahare ila’e handro an-kaleñe; fe tsy ho soaeko.
14 UThixo uthi, “Kodwa insuku ziyeza lapho abantu bengayikuthi, ‘Ngeqiniso elinjengokuthi uThixo ukhona, yena owakhupha abako-Israyeli eGibhithe,’
Rendreho arè, te ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà, te tsy ho volañeñe ka ty hoe: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà nañakatse o ana’ Israeleo an-tane Mitsraime añe,
15 kodwa bazakuthi, ‘Ngeqiniso elinjengokuthi uThixo ukhona, yena owakhupha abako-Israyeli elizweni lasenyakatho lakuwo wonke amazwe ayebaxotshele kuwo.’ Ngoba ngizababuyisela elizweni engalinika okhokho babo.”
Te mone: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà nampipoly o ana’ Israeleo boak’ an-tane avaratse añe, naho amo hene tane nandroahako iareoo; Ie hampoliko an-tane’ natoloko an-droae’eo.
16 UThixo uthi, “Kodwa khathesi ngizathumela abagoli benhlanzi abanengi, bazababamba. Emva kwalokho ngizathumela abazingeli abanengi, bazabazingela ezintabeni zonke lasemaqaqeni wonke njalo lasezingoxweni zamadwala.
Ie amy zay, hampisangitrifeko mpamintañe maro, hoe t’Iehovà, le ho vintañe’iereo; heneke zay le hampañitrifeko mpañoro maro, le ho horoñe’ iereo amy ze hene vohitse naho amy ze fonga tamboho, vaho boak’amo tseran-damilamio.
17 Amehlo ami akuzo zonke izindlela zabo; kabafihlakalanga kimi, lesono sabo kasiwacatshelanga amehlo ami.
Fa amo sata’ iareo iabio o masokoo, tsy mietak’ an-tareheko iereo; mbore tsy mikafitse amo masokoo ty fandilara’ iareo.
18 Ngizaphindisela ngokuphindiweyo ububi babo lesono sabo, ngoba bangcolise ilizwe lami ngezinto ezingaphiliyo zezifanekiso zabo ezingamanyala, bagcwalisa lelifa lami ngezithombe zabo ezinengekayo.”
Hondroheko indroe hey ty hakeo naho tahi’ iareo; amy t’ie nañota-faly an-taneko; nilipore’ iareo amy lovakoy o faten- draha’e mampangorìñeo vaho o raha tivao.
19 Awu Thixo, mandla ami lenqaba yami, siphephelo sami ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka, izizwe zizakuza kuwe zivela emikhawulweni yomhlaba zithi, “Okhokho babengelalutho kodwa onkulunkulu bamanga, izithombe eziyize ezingabasizanga ngalutho.
Ry Iehovà, haozarako naho kijoliko fatratse, toe fipalirako an-tsan-kasotriañe, ama’o ty hañaveloa’ o fifeheañe boak’ añ’olo-ty tane toio hanao ty hoe: Nandova vande avao o rae’aio, raha kafoake, tsy amam-bente’e.
20 Kambe abantu bayazenzela onkulunkulu babo na? Ye, kodwa kayisibo onkulunkulu!”
Hamboara’ ondaty ‘ndrahare hao ty vata’e, ie tsy andrianañahare?
21 “Ngakho ngizabafundisa, khathesi ngizabafundisa amandla ami lobukhulu bami. Lapho-ke bazakwazi ukuthi ibizo lami nguThixo.”
Mahaoniña arè te hampahafohineko ami’ty indraike toy te haboako am’ iereo ty tañako, naho ty haozarako; vaho ho fohi’ iareo te Iehovà ty añarako.
