UJeremiya 27
1 Ekuqaleni kokubusa kukaZedekhiya indodana kaJosiya inkosi yakoJuda, ilizwi leli lafika kuJeremiya livela kuThixo lisithi:
ʻI he kamataʻanga ʻoe pule ʻa Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻe haʻu ʻae folofola ni meia Sihova kia Selemaia, ʻo pehē,
2 UThixo wathi kimi, “Yenza ijogwe ngemichilo langemigoqo uligaxe entanyeni yakho.
“ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova kiate au; Ke ke ngaohi ʻae ngaahi haʻi mo e ngaahi haʻamo, ʻo ʻai ia ki ho kia,
3 Ubusuthumela ilizwi enkosini yase-Edomi, leyaseMowabi, leyase-Amoni, eyeThire kanye leyaseSidoni ngezithunywa ezize eJerusalema kuZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda.
pea fekau ke ʻave ia ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻItomi, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo Moape, pea mo e tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoni, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo Taia, pea mo e tuʻi ʻo Saitone, ʻi he nima ʻoe kau talafekau ʻaia ʻoku haʻu ki Selūsalema, kia Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta;
4 Zinike ilizwi eliya emakhosini azo uthi, ‘UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Tshelani amakhosi enu lokhu ukuthi:
pea fekau ʻakinautolu ke lea ki honau houʻeiki,” ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “Ke mou lea pehē ki homou houʻeiki;
5 Ngamandla ami amakhulu langengalo yami eyeluliweyo ngenza umhlaba labantu bawo kanye lezinyamazana ezikuwo, njalo ngiwunika loba ngubani ngokuthanda kwami.
Kuo u ngaohi ʻa māmani, mo e tangata, pea mo e manu ʻoku ʻi ho funga fonua, ʻaki ʻeku mālohi lahi, mo hoku nima mafao, pea kuo u foaki ia kiate kinautolu ʻoku ou loto ki ai.
6 Khathesi wonke amazwe enu ngizawanikela encekwini yami uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, ngizakwenza lezinyamazana zeganga zibe ngaphansi kwakhe.
Pea ko eni kuo u foaki ʻae ngaahi fonua ni kotoa pē ki he nima ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki; pea mo e ngaahi manu ʻoe ngoue kuo u foaki foki kiate ia ke tauhi ʻaki ia.
7 Izizwe zonke zizamsebenzela yena lamadodana akhe kanye labazukulu bakhe kuze kufike isikhathi selizwe lakhe lapho azanqotshwa khona yizizwe ezinengi lamakhosi amakhulu.
Pea ʻe tauhi kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea ki hono foha, pea mo e foha ʻo hono foha, ʻo aʻu ki he hoko mai ʻae ʻaho ʻo hono fonua: pea ʻe toki pule kiate ia ʻe he kakai tokolahi, mo e ngaahi tuʻi lahi ke ne tauhi ʻakinautolu.
8 Kodwa, loba yisiphi isizwe loba umbuso ongasebenzeli uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni loba ukhothamisele intamo yawo ejogeni lakhe, ngizasijezisa lesosizwe ngenkemba, ngendlala langesifo, ngize ngiwuchithe ngesandla sakhe, kutsho uThixo.
“Pea ʻe hoko ia ʻo pehē, ko e kakai mo e puleʻanga ʻaia ʻe ʻikai fie tauhi kia Nepukanesa ko ia, ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea ʻe ʻikai fie ʻai ʻae haʻamonga ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki honau kia, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, te u tautea ʻaki ʻae kakai ko ia ʻae heletā mo e honge, mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, kaeʻoua ke fakaʻosi ʻakinautolu ʻi hono nima.
9 Ngakho lingabalaleli abaphrofethi benu, izanuse zenu, abachazi bamaphupho, izangoma zenu loba izinyanga zenu ezithi kini, kaliyikuyisebenzela inkosi yaseBhabhiloni.’
Ko ia ʻoua naʻa mou fanongo ki hoʻomou kau palōfita, pe ki hoʻomou kau kikite, pe ki hoʻomou kau misi, pe ki hoʻomou kau sio ki langi, pe ki hoʻomou kau fiemana, ʻakinautolu ʻoku lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te mou tauhi ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone.
10 Baphrofetha amanga kini azasebenza ukulisusa nje kuphela emazweni enu; ngizalixotsha njalo lizabhubha.
He ʻoku nau kikite loi kiate kimoutolu, ke ʻave mamaʻo ʻakimoutolu mei homou fonua; koeʻuhi te u kapusi ʻakimoutolu, pea te mou ʻauha.
11 Kodwa isizwe esizabeka intamo yaso ngaphansi kwejogwe lenkosi yaseBhabhiloni siyisebenzele, lesosizwe ngizasiyekela siselizweni laso ukuba sililime njalo sihlale kulo, kutsho uThixo.”
Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ngaahi puleʻanga ʻaia ʻe ʻai ʻae haʻamonga ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki honau kia, pea tauhi ia, te u tuku ke nofo ʻakinautolu ʻi honau fonua, pea te nau ngoueʻi ia, pea nofo ai.”
12 UZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ngamnika ilizwi elinjalo; Ngathi, “Beka intamo yakho ngaphansi kwejogwe lenkosi yaseBhabhiloni; isebenzele yona kanye labantu bayo, uzaphila.
Pea naʻaku lea foki kia Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “Mou ʻai ʻae haʻamonga ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki homou kia, pea tauhi ia mo hono kakai, ke mou moʻui.
13 Kungani wena labantu bakho lizabulawa ngenkemba, indlala lesifo uThixo ayesongele ngakho isizwe esingayikusebenzela inkosi yaseBhabhiloni na?
Ko e hā ʻoku mou fie mate ai, ko koe mo hoʻo kakai, ʻi he heletā, mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova ki he kakai ʻoku ʻikai fie tauhi ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone?
14 Lingawalaleli amazwi abaphrofethi abathi kini, ‘Kaliyikuyisebenzela inkosi yaseBhabhiloni,’ ngoba baphrofetha amanga kini.
Ko ia ʻoua naʻa fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻae kau palōfita ʻoku lea kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, ʻE ʻikai te mou tauhi ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone: he ʻoku nau kikite loi kiate kimoutolu.
15 ‘Angibathumanga,’ kutsho uThixo. ‘Baphrofetha amanga ngebizo lami. Ngakho ngizalixotsha, libhubhe lina kanye labaphrofethi abaphrofetha kini.’”
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, naʻe ʻikai te u fekau ʻakinautolu, ka ʻoku nau kikite loi ʻi hoku huafa; koeʻuhi ke u kapusi ʻakimoutolu, pea te mou ʻauha, ko kimoutolu pea mo e kau palōfita ʻoku kikite kiate kimoutolu.”
16 Ngasengisithi kubaphristi lakubo bonke abantu laba, “UThixo uthi: Lingabalaleli abaphrofethi abathi, ‘Masinyane nje izitsha zasendlini kaThixo zizabuyiswa zivela eBhabhiloni.’ Baphrofetha amanga kini.
Naʻaku lea foki ki he kau taulaʻeiki pea ki he kakai ni kotoa pē, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻa Sihova; ʻoua naʻa fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻae kau palōfita ʻoku kikite kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, Vakai, ʻe toe ʻomi vave mei Papilone ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova: he ʻoku nau kikite loi kiate kimoutolu.
17 Lingabalaleli. Isebenzeleni inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, lizaphila. Kungani idolobho leli kumele libe lunxiwa na?
ʻOua naʻa fanongo kiate kinautolu; mou tauhi ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ke mou moʻui: ʻe fakalala ʻae kolo ni ko e hā?
18 Nxa bengabaphrofethi njalo belelizwi likaThixo, kabamncenge uThixo uSomandla ukuba izitsha eziseleyo endlini kaThixo lasesigodlweni senkosi yakoJuda kanye laseJerusalema zingasiwa eBhabhiloni.
Pea kapau ko e kau palōfita ʻakinautolu, pea kapau ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, tuku ke nau fai ni ʻae hūfia kia Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi ipu ʻaia naʻe toe ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea ʻi Selūsalema, ke ʻoua naʻa fetuku ia ki Papilone.”
19 Ngoba lokhu yikho okutshiwo nguThixo uSomandla mayelana lensika, loLwandle, lokokumisa okuphakamisekayo kanye lezinye izitsha eziseleyo kulelidolobho,
He ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “Ko e meʻa ki he ngaahi pou, pea mo e fuʻu ʻaiʻanga vai, pea mo e ngaahi tuʻunga, pea ki he ngaahi ipu ʻoku toe ʻi he kolo ni,
20 uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni engahambanga layo ekuthatheni kwakhe uJehoyakhini indodana kaJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda emsusa eJerusalema emusa ekuthunjweni eBhabhiloni, kanye lezikhulu zonke zakoJuda lezeJerusalema,
ʻaia naʻe ʻikai ʻave ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻi heʻene fetuku fakapōpula ʻa Sekonia ko e foha ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta mei Selūsalema ki Papilone, pea mo e houʻeiki kotoa pē ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema;
21 yebo, lokhu yikho okutshiwo nguThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, mayelana lezinto eziseleyo endlini kaThixo lasesigodlweni senkosi yakoJuda kanye laseJerusalema ukuthi:
Ko e moʻoni, ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi ipu ʻoku toe ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema;
22 ‘Zizasiwa eBhabhiloni lapho ezizakuba khona kuze kufike usuku engizazilanda ngalo,’ kutsho uThixo. ‘Lapho-ke ngizazibuyisela emuva kule indawo.’”
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻe fetuku ia ki Papilone, pea ʻe tuku ia ki ai, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ʻaia te u ʻaʻahi ai ʻakinautolu; pea te u toki ʻomi ia mei ai, pea toe tuku ia ki he kolo ni.”
