1 Emva kokuba uJekhoniya indodana kaJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda lezikhulu, izingcitshi kanye lezisebenzi zakoJuda sebethunjwe eJerusalema basiwa eBhabhiloni nguNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, uThixo wangitshengisa izitsha ezimbili zomkhiwa zibekwe phambi kwethempeli likaThixo.
Esi Nebukadnezar, Babilonia fia kplɔ Yehoyakim vi Yehoyatsin, Yuda fia, eƒe dumegãwo, aɖaŋudɔwɔlawo kple asinudɔwɔlawo yi ɖe aboyo mee le Babilonia megbe la, Yehowa ɖe gbotsetse kusi eve siwo woda ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ mɔnu la fiam.
2 Esinye isitsha sasilomkhiwa omuhle kakhulu, njengovuthwa kuqala; esinye isitsha sasilomkhiwa omubi, ubolile ungeke wadleka.
Gbotsetse nyuiwo le kusi ɖeka me, eye woɖi nyuie abe esiwo ɖina kaba la ene. Ke gbotsetse siwo le kusi evelia me la menyo kura o, wogblẽ ale gbegbe be womenyo woaɖu o.
3 UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Kuyini okubonayo, Jeremiya?” Ngathi, “Ngumkhiwa. Omuhle muhle kakhulu, kodwa omubi ubole kakhulu ungeke udliwe.”
Tete Yehowa biam be, “Nu ka kpɔm nèle, Yeremia?” Meɖo eŋu be, “Gbotsetsewoe. Nyuitɔwo le nyuie ŋutɔ, ke manyomanyoawo gblẽ ale gbegbe be womate ŋu aɖu wo o.”
4 Ilizwi likaThixo laselifika kimi lisithi:
Tete Yehowa ƒe nya va nam be,
5 “UThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi, ‘Njengalo umkhiwa omuhle, ngibathatha njengabalungileyo abathunjwa bakoJuda, engabasusa kule indawo ngabasa elizweni laseBhabhiloni.
“Ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi, ‘Mebu aboyome siwo tso Yuda la abe gbotsetse nyui siawo ene, ame siwo meɖo ɖe Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi tso teƒe sia.
6 Amehlo ami azabakhangela kokuphela, njalo ngizababuyisa kulelilizwe. Ngizabakha ngingabadilizi; ngizabahlanyela ngingabasiphuni.
Nye ŋkuwo anɔ wo ŋu hena woawo ŋutɔ ƒe nyonyo eye magakplɔ wo agbɔe va anyigba sia dzi. Matu wo eye nyemagbã wo aƒu anyi o. Mado wo eye nyemaho wo aƒu gbe o.
7 Ngizabapha inhliziyo yokungazi, ukuthi mina nginguThixo. Bazakuba ngabantu bami, mina ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo, ngoba bazabuyela kimi ngenhliziyo yabo yonke.
Mana dzi wo, ne woadze sim be nyee nye Yehowa. Woanye nye dukɔ eye manye woƒe Mawu elabena woatrɔ agbɔ, ava gbɔnye kple woƒe dzi blibo.’
8 Kodwa njengomkhiwa omubi, obolileyo ongeke udliwe,’ kutsho uThixo, ‘ngizamphatha kanjalo uZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda, lezikhulu zakhe kanye labasindayo eJerusalema, langabe basele kulelilizwe loba baseGibhithe.
“Yehowa be, ‘Gake abe gbotsetse siwo gblẽ ale gbegbe be womate ŋu aɖu wo o ene la, nenemae mawɔ Yuda fia Zedekia, eƒe dumegãwo kple ame siwo susɔ ɖe Yerusalem, woatsi anyigba sia dzi loo, alo woanɔ Egipte.
9 Ngizabenza bazondakale njalo babe yisinengiso kuyo yonke imibuso yasemhlabeni, insolo lesiga, into yokuhlekwa lokuthukwa, loba kungaphi engibaxotshela khona.
Mawɔ wo woanye bibi kple ŋunyɔnu na anyigbadzifiaɖuƒewo katã, woanye alɔmeɖenu, lodonu, nu ɖikokoe kple fiƒodenu le afi sia afi si menya wo ɖo ɖo.
10 Ngizathumela inkemba, indlala lomkhuhlane baze babhujiswe baphele elizweni engabanika lona kanye labokhokho babo.’”
Madɔ yi, dɔwuame kple dɔvɔ̃ ɖe wo dome va se ɖe esime woatsrɔ̃, avɔ le anyigba si metsɔ na wo kple wo fofowo la dzi.’”
