UJeremiya 31
1 “Ngalesosikhathi ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wezizwana zonke zako-Israyeli, bona bazakuba ngabantu bami,” kutsho uThixo.
“Yeroo sanatti” jedha Waaqayyo, “Ani balbala Israaʼel hundaaf Waaqa nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo ni taʼu.”
2 UThixo uthi: “Abantu abasilayo enkembeni bazathola umusa enkangala; ngizakuzanika u-Israyeli ukuphumula.”
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Namoonni goraadee irraa hafan gammoojjii keessatti fudhatama ni argatu; anis Israaʼeliif boqonnaa kennuuf nan dhufa.”
3 UThixo wabonakala kithi kudala esithi: “Ngikuthandile ngothando olungapheliyo; ngikuhole ngesisa esikhulu.
Waaqayyo fagoodhaa natti mulʼatee akkana jedhe: “Ani jaalala bara baraatiin si jaalladheera; kanaafuu ani arjummaa kootiin ofitti si harkiseera.
4 Ngizakwakha njalo uzakwakhiwa kutsha futhi, wena Israyeli Ntombi emsulwa. Uzathatha amagedla akho futhi uphume uyegida labathokozayo.
Yaa Israaʼel durba qulqullittii, ani amma illee sin ijaara; atis deebitee ni ijaaramta. Ati amma illee dibbee kee fudhattee warra gammadan wajjin shuubbisuuf gad baata.
5 Uzalima izivini zakho futhi emaqaqeni aseSamariya; abalimi bazazilima badle izithelo zazo.
Ati amma illee gaarran Samaariyaa irratti wayinii ni dhaabbatta; qotee bulaanis wayinii dhaabbatee ija isaa ni nyaata.
6 Kuzakuba losuku lapho abalindi bezamemeza phezu kwamaqaqa ako-Efrayimi bathi, ‘Wozani, kasiyeni eZiyoni, kuThixo uNkulunkulu wethu.’”
Guyyaa itti eegdonni gaarran Efreem irra dhaabatanii, ‘Kottaa gara Xiyoonitti, gara Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatti ol baanaa’ jedhanii iyyan tokko ni dhufa.”
7 UThixo uthi: “Mhlabeleleni uJakhobe ngokuthokoza; nqongolozelani izizwe ezidumileyo. Yenzani ukudumisa kwenu kuzwakale, lisithi, ‘Awu Thixo, bahlenge abantu bakho, insalela ka-Israyeli.’
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yaaqoobiif gammachuudhaan faarfadhaa; hangafa sabootaatiif ililchaa. Galata keessan dhageessisaatii, ‘Yaa Waaqayyo saba kee, hambaa Israaʼel baraari’ jedhaa.
8 Khangelani, ngizababuyisa bevela elizweni lasenyakatho, ngibaqoqe emikhawulweni yomhlaba. Phakathi kwabo kuzakuba leziphofu labaqhulayo; abesifazane abazithweleyo labahelelwayo; ixuku elikhulu lizabuya.
Kunoo, ani biyya kaabaatii isaan nan fida; handaara lafaatiis walitti isaan nan qaba. Isaan keessattis jaamotaa fi naafota, haadhota ulfaatii fi dubartoota ciniinsifatantu argama; saba guddaa taʼaniis ni deebiʼu.
9 Bazabuya bekhala; bazakhuleka lapho ngibabuyisa. Ngizabaholela ezihotsheni zamanzi endleleni eyendlalekileyo lapho abangayikukhubeka khona, ngoba nginguyise ka-Israyeli, njalo u-Efrayimi yindodana yami elizibulo.
Isaanis booʼaa dhufu; yeroo ani deebisee isaan fidutti Waaqa kadhatu. Waan ani abbaa Israaʼel taʼee fi Efreem immoo ilma koo hangafa taʼeef, ani qarqara burqaa bishaanii irra, daandii qajeelaa isaan achi irratti hin gufanne irra isaan nan qajeelcha.
10 Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo, lina zizwe; limemezeleni emazweni angaselwandle khatshana lithi: ‘Yena owahlakaza u-Israyeli uzamqoqa njalo uzakwelusa umhlambi wakhe njengomelusi.’
“Yaa saboota, dubbii Waaqayyo dhagaʼaa; isin, ‘Inni Israaʼelin bittinneesse sun walitti isaan qabee akkuma tiksee tokkootti bushaayee isaa ni tiksa’ jedhaatii biyyoota qarqara galaanaa kanneen fagoo jiranitti labsaa.
11 Ngoba uThixo uzamhlenga uJakhobe, abakhulule ezandleni zalabo abalamandla kulabo.
Waaqayyo Yaaqoobin fureera, warra isa caalaa jajjaboo taʼan harkaas isa baaseeraatii.
12 Bazakuza banqongoloze ngentokozo ezingqongeni zeZiyoni; bazathokoza ngokuphana kukaThixo, ngamabele, langewayini elitsha kanye lamafutha e-oliva, ngamazinyane ezimvu langamathole enkomo. Bazakuba njengesivande esithelelwa kuhle, njalo kabasayikuba losizi futhi.
Isaan ni dhufanii gaarran Xiyoon irrattis gammadanii ililchu; isaan arjummaa Waaqayyootti jechuunis midhaanitti, daadhii wayinii haaraa fi zayitiitti, ilmoolee bushaayeettii fi jabbootaattis ni gammadu. Jireenyi isaanii akkuma biqiltuu bishaan quufee taʼa; isaan siʼachi hin gaddan.
13 Izintombi zizagida njalo futhi zithabe, enzenjalo amajaha labadala. Ngizaguqula ukukhala kwabo kube yikuthaba; ngizabapha induduzo lentokozo esikhundleni sosizi.
Ergasiis shamarran ni shuubbisu; ni gammadu; dargaggoonnii fi maanguddoonni akkasuma ni gammadu. Ani booʼicha isaanii gammachuutti nan geeddara; qooda gaddaa jajjabinaa fi gammachuu nan kennaaf.
14 Ngizasuthisa abaphristi ngokunengi, labantu bami bazasutha ngokuphana kwami,” kutsho uThixo.
Ani arjummaadhaan luboota nan quubsa; sabni koos badhaadhummaa kootiin ni guutama,” jedha Waaqayyo.
15 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Ilizwi lizwakala eRama, lesililo lokukhala okukhulu, uRasheli ukhalela abantwabakhe njalo esala ukududuzwa, ngoba kabasekho.”
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Sagaleen booʼichaatii fi wawwaannaa guddaan tokko Raamaa keessaa dhagaʼame; sababii isaan hin jirreef, Raahel ijoollee isheetiif booʼaa jirti; jajjabaachuus ni didde.”
16 Nanku akutshoyo uThixo: “Bamba ilizwi lakho ungakhali, lamehlo akho angehlisi inyembezi ngoba umsebenzi wakho uzathola umvuzo,” kutsho uThixo. “Bazabuya bevela elizweni lesitha.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Sagalee kee booʼicha irraa, ija kee immoo imimmaan irraa eeggadhu; hojiin kee ni badhaafamaatii” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isaan biyya diinaatii ni deebiʼu.
17 Ngakho kulethemba ensukwini zakho ezizayo,” kutsho uThixo. “Abantwabakho bazabuyela elizweni labo.
Kanaafuu galgalli kee abdii qaba” jedha Waaqayyo. Ijoolleen kee biyya ofii isaaniitti ni deebiʼu.
18 Ngikuzwile impela ukukhala kuka-Efrayimi esithi: ‘Wangitshaya njengethole elingathambanga, njalo sengajeziseka. Ngibuyisa, njalo ngizabuya, ngoba unguThixo uNkulunkulu wami.
“Ani dhugumaan Efreemii akkana jedhee booʼu dhagaʼeera: ‘Ati akkuma dibicha hin leenjifamin tokkootti na adabdeerta; anis adabameera. Ati sababii Waaqayyo Waaqa koo taateef, na deebisi; anis nan deebiʼa.
19 Emva kokweduka kwami, ngaphenduka; emva kokuba sengizwisisile, ngazitshaya isifuba. Ngaba lenhloni ngadumazeka ngoba ngangilehlazo lasebutsheni bami.’
Ani ergan duubatti deebiʼee booddee, qalbii jijjiirradheera; ani ergan hubadhee booddee, qoma koo nan dhaʼe. Ani sababiin salphina dargaggummaa koo baadhuuf, nan qaanaʼe; gad nan deebiʼes.’
20 U-Efrayimi kasindodana yami ethandekayo, umntanami engithokoza ngaye na? Lanxa ngihlala ngikhuluma kubi ngaye ngisamkhumbula. Ngakho inhliziyo yami iyamlangatha; ngiyamzwela kakhulu, kutsho uThixo.
Efreem ilma koo jaallatamaa, mucaa ani itti gammadu mitii? Ani yeroo baayʼee yoon isaan morme iyyuu amma illee isa nan yaadadha. Kanaafuu garaan koo isaaf ni yaada; garaas nan laafaaf” jedha Waaqayyo.
21 Beka izitshengiso zomgwaqo; umise lezinsika zeziqondiso. Nanzelela umgwaqo, indlela ozahamba ngayo. Phenduka, wena Ntombi egcweleyo Israyeli, buyela emadolobheni akho.
“Ati mallattoo daandii dhaabbadhu; waan karaa nama argisiisu illee kaaʼadhu. Karaa irra deemtu, daandii guddaa sana hubadhu. Yaa Israaʼel durba qulqullittii deebiʼi; magaalaawwan keetti deebiʼi.
22 Koze kube nini ulokhu uzulazula, wena ndodakazi engathembekanga na? UThixo uzadala into entsha emhlabeni, owesifazane uzavikela indoda.”
Yaa intala hin amanamne, ati hamma yoomiitti asii fi achi joorta? Waaqayyo waan haaraa tokko lafa irratti ni uuma; dubartiin dhiira marsiti.”
23 UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi, “Lapho ngibabuyisa bevela ekuthunjweni, abantu abaselizweni lakoJuda lasemadolobheni alo bazawasebenzisa futhi amazwi la athi, ‘UThixo akubusise wena ndawo yokuhlala elungileyo, wena ntaba engcwele.’
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Yeroo ani boojiʼamtoota isaanii deebisutti namoonni biyya Yihuudaatii fi magaalaawwan ishee keessa jiraatan amma illee yeroo tokko, ‘Yaa iddoo murtiin qajeelaan jiraatu, yaa tulluu qulqulluu, Waaqayyo si haa eebbisu’ jedhanii dubbatu.
24 Abantu bazahlala ndawonye koJuda lasemadolobheni akhona wonke, abalimi kanye lalabo abazulazulayo lemihlambi yabo.
Biyya Yihuudaatii fi magaalaawwan isaa hunda keessa namoonni jechuunis qonnaan bultoonnii fi warri bushaayee fudhatanii asii fi achi nanaannaʼan tokkummaadhaan achi keessa jiraatu.
25 Ngizaqinisa abadiniweyo ngisuthise abangelamandla.”
Ani warra dadhaban nan jajjabeessa; warra gaggaban illee nan bayyanachiisa.”
26 Lapho-ke ngaphaphama ngakhangela indawana yonke. Ubuthongo bami babubemnandi kimi.
Kana irratti ani dammaqee asii fi achi nan ilaale. Hirribni koos natti miʼaawee ture.
27 “Insuku ziyeza, lapho engizahlanyela khona indlu ka-Israyeli lendlu kaJuda lenzalo yabantu lezinyamazana.
“Barri ani itti mana Israaʼelii fi mana Yihuudaa sanyii namaatii fi sanyii horiitiin guutu tokko ni dhufa” jedha Waaqayyo.
28 Njengoba ngabalinda ukusiphuna lokudiliza, ukuchitha lokubhubhisa kanye lokuletha umonakalo, ngokunjalo ngizabalinda ukwakha lokuhlanyela,” kutsho uThixo.
“Ani akkuman isaan buqqisuu fi diiguuf, isaan garagalchuuf, isaan barbadeessuu fi badiisa isaanitti fiduuf isaan ilaale sana akkasuma immoo isaan ijaaruu fi isaan dhaabuuf gara isaanii nan ilaala” jedha Waaqayyo.
29 “Ngalezonsuku abantu kabasayikutsho ukuthi, ‘Abazali badle amavini amunyu, ngakho amazinyo abantwana asetshelela.’
“Bara sana keessa namoonni lammata, “‘Abbootiin isaanii ija wayinii dhangaggaaʼaa nyaannaan ilkaan ijoollee hadoode’ hin jedhan.
30 Esikhundleni salokho, umuntu wonke uzafela izono zakhe; loba ngubani odla amavini amunyu amazinyo akhe azatshelela.
Qooda kanaa tokkoon tokkoon namaa cubbuu ofii isaatiin duʼa; nama ija wayinii dhangaggaaʼaa nyaatu kam iyyuu ilkaanuma isaatu hadooda.
31 Isikhathi siyeza, lapho engizakwenza khona isivumelwano esitsha lendlu ka-Israyeli kanye lekaJuda,” kutsho uThixo.
“Yeroon ani itti mana Israaʼel wajjin, mana Yihuudaa wajjinis kakuu haaraa galu ni dhufa,” jedha Waaqayyo.
32 “Kasiyikufana lesivumelwano engasenza labokhokho babo lapho engababamba khona ngesandla ukuba ngibakhuphe eGibhithe, ngoba bephula isivumelwano sami, lanxa ngangingumyeni wabo,” kutsho uThixo.
“Kakuun kunis kakuu ani, yeroo biyya Gibxiitii isaan baasuuf jedhee harka isaanii qabe sana abbootii isaanii wajjin gale, kakuu koo kan utuma ani dhirsa isaanii taʼee jiruu isaan cabsan sanaan tokko miti” jedha Waaqayyo.
33 “Lesi yiso isivumelwano engizasenza lendlu ka-Israyeli ngemva kwalesosikhathi,” kutsho uThixo. “Ngizafaka umthetho wami ezingqondweni zabo, ngiwulobe lasezinhliziyweni zabo. Ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo, bona bazakuba ngabantu bami.
“Kakuun ani yeroo sana booddee mana Israaʼel wajjin galu kanaa dha” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani seera koo qalbii isaanii keessa nan kaaʼa; garaa isaanii keessattis nan barreessa. Ani Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo taʼu.
34 Umuntu kasayikufundisa umakhelwane wakhe, kumbe umfowabo esithi, ‘Mazi uThixo,’ ngoba bonke bazangazi, kusukela komncinyane wabo kusiya komkhulu, kutsho uThixo. Ngoba ngizabathethelela ububi babo, njalo angiyikukhumbula izono zabo futhi.”
Sababii hundi isaanii, xinnaa hamma guddaatti na beekaniif, siʼachi namni kam iyyuu, ‘Waaqayyoon beeki’ jedhee ollaa isaa yookaan obboleessa isaa hin barsiisu” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani yakka isaanii nan dhiisaaf; cubbuu isaaniis siʼachi hin yaadadhu.”
35 Nanku akutshoyo uThixo, yena obeka ilanga ukuba likhanyise emini, omisa inyanga lezinkanyezi ukuba kukhanye ebusuku, onyakazisa ulwandle ukuze amagagasi alo ahlokome, uThixo uSomandla yilo ibizo lakhe, uthi:
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; inni akka isheen guyyaan ibsituuf aduu ramadu, inni akka isaan halkaniin ibsaniif, jiʼaa fi urjiiwwan ajaju, inni akka dambaliin isaa huursuuf galaana raasu sun maqaan isaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu dha:
36 “Nxa izimiso lezi zinganyamalala ebusweni bami,” kutsho uThixo, “kulapho lenzalo ka-Israyeli ezacina khona ukuba yisizwe phambi kwami.”
“Yoo seerri kun fuula koo duraa bade qofa, sanyiin Israaʼel, fuula koo duratti bara baraan saba taʼuun isaa hafa” jedha Waaqayyo.
37 UThixo uthi: “Nxa amazulu phezulu engalinganiswa lezisekelo zomhlaba ngaphansi zihlolwe, kulapho engingayilahla khona yonke inzalo ka-Israyeli ngenxa yakho konke abakwenzileyo,” kutsho uThixo.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yoo samiin gubbaa safaramuu dandaʼee fi hundeen lafaa kan gadii qoratamee argamuu dandaʼe qofa ani sanyii Israaʼel hunda sababii waan isaan hojjetan hundaatiif nan gata” jedha Waaqayyo.
38 “Insuku ziyeza,” kutsho uThixo, “lapho idolobho leli ngizalakhelwa kutsha kusukela eMphotshongweni waseHananeli kusiya eSangweni leNgosi.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Barri itti magaalaan kun gamoo Hanaaniʼeeliitii jalqabee hamma Karra Goleetti deebiʼee naaf ijaaramu tokko ni dhufa.
39 Intambo yokulinganisa izasukela lapho iqonde eqaqeni lweGarebi ibe isijikela eGowa.
Funyoon safaraas achii kaʼee gara tulluu Gaareebitti qajeelee gara Goʼaatti diriirfama.
40 Isigodi sonke lapho okulahlelwa khona izidumbu zabafileyo lomlotha, lawo wonke amasimu kusiyafika esigodini seKhidironi ngasempumalanga kusiyafika ejikweni leSango leBhiza, kuzakuba ngcwele kuThixo. Idolobho kaliyikusitshunwa futhi loba lidilizwe.”
Sululli reeffii fi daaraan itti gatamu guutuun, karaa baʼaas sulula Qeedroon qabatee dirreen hamma Karra Fardaatti jiru hundi Waaqayyoof ni qulqulleeffama. Magaalaan kun gonkumaa lammaffaa hin buqqifamtu yookaan hin diigamtu.”
