< UJeremiya 32 >
1 Leli yilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela kuThixo ngomnyaka wetshumi wokubusa kukaZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda, owawungumnyaka wetshumi lasificaminwembili wokubusa kukaNebhukhadineza.
Ko e folofola naʻe haʻu kia Selemaia meia Sihova ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe taʻu ʻo Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻaia naʻe ʻi hono hongofulu ma valu taʻu ʻo Nepukanesa.
2 Ngalesosikhathi ibutho lenkosi yaseBhabhiloni lalivimbezele iJerusalema, uJeremiya umphrofethi evalelwe egumeni labalindi phakathi kwesigodlo senkosi yakoJuda.
He naʻe kāpui ʻa Selūsalema ʻe he kau tau ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia: pea naʻe tuku ʻa Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he lotoʻā ʻoe fale fakapōpula, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta.
3 UZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda wayemvalele lapho esithi, “Kungani uphrofetha njengalokhu okwenzayo? Uthi: ‘UThixo uthi: Sekuseduze ukuthi idolobho leli ngilinikele enkosini yaseBhabhiloni, njalo izalithumba.
He kuo tuku ia ki ai ʻe Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke kikite ai, ʻo lea, ‘ʻoku pehē mai ʻa Sihova, Vakai, te u tukuange ʻae kolo ni ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea te ne kapa ia;
4 UZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda akayikuphunyuka ezandleni zamaKhaladiya, kodwa uzanikelwa impela enkosini yaseBhabhiloni, njalo uzakhuluma layo ubuso ngobuso ayibone ngamehlo akhe.
Pea ʻe ʻikai hao ʻa Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta mei he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia, ka ʻe tukuange moʻoni ia ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea te ne alea mo ia, ko e ngutu ki he ngutu, pea ʻe mamata ia ki hono mata.
5 Izathatha uZedekhiya imuse eBhabhiloni, lapho azahlala khona ngize ngibone engingakwenza kuye, kutsho uThixo. Nxa usilwa lamaKhaladiya, kawuyikuphumelela.’”
Pea te ne tataki ʻa Setikia ki Papilone, pea te ne nofo ai, ke ʻoua ke u ʻaʻahi kiate ia,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova: “pea kapau te mou tau mo e kau Kalitia, ʻe ʻikai te mou monūʻia.”’”
6 UJeremiya wathi, “Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Selemaia, “Naʻe haʻu kiate au, ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē,
7 UHanameli indodana kaShalumi umalumakho uzakuza kuwe athi, ‘Thenga insimu yami e-Anathothi, ngoba njengesinini sami kulilungelo lakho lomlandu wakho ukuba uyithenge.’
‘Vakai, ʻe haʻu kiate koe ʻa Hanamili ko e foha ʻo Salumi ko e tokoua ʻo hoʻo tamai, ʻo pehē, fakatau moʻou ʻae ngoue ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ʻAnatoti: he ʻoku totonu ke ke fakatau ia ʻo hangē ko e fono ʻoe huhuʻi.”’”
8 Ngakho, njengokutsho kukaThixo, umzawami uHanameli weza kimi egumeni labalindi wathi, ‘Thenga insimu yami e-Anathothi elizweni lakoBhenjamini. Njengoba kulilungelo lakho ukuba uyihlenge ibe ngeyakho, zithengele yona.’ Ngakwazi ukuthi leli laliyilizwi likaThixo;
“Ko ia naʻe haʻu kiate au ki he lotoʻā ʻoe fale fakapōpula ʻa Hanamili ko e foha ʻoe tokoua ʻeku tamai, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, pea ne pehē kiate au, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakatau ʻeku ngoue ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ʻAnatoti, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fonua ʻo Penisimani: he ʻoku ʻaʻau ia ʻo hangē ko e fono ʻoe hoko, pea ʻoku ʻiate koe hono huhuʻi; ke ke fakatau ia maʻau.’ “Pea naʻaku toki ʻilo tā ko e folofola eni ʻa Sihova.
9 ngakho ngayithenga insimu ye-Anathothi kumzawami uHanameli, ngamlinganisela amashekeli alitshumi lesikhombisa esiliva.
Pea naʻaku fakatau ʻae ngoue ʻa Hanamili ko e foha ʻoe tokoua ʻo ʻeku tamai, ʻaia naʻe ʻi ʻAnatoti, pea u fakatatau ʻae paʻanga kiate ia, ko e sikeli siliva ʻe hongofulu ma fitu.
10 Ngasayina incwadi yesivumelwano sokuthenga ngayinamathisela, yafakazelwa, ngalinganisa isiliva esikalini.
Pea naʻaku tohi ʻae tohi, pea fakamaʻu ia, pea naʻe fakamoʻoni ʻe he kau fakamoʻoni, pea u fakamamafa kiate ia ʻae paʻanga ʻi he meʻa fakatatau.
11 Ngathatha incwadi yokuthenga enanyekiweyo eyayilemithetho lezimiso, kanye leyayingananyekwangwa,
Pea ne u toʻo fakatouʻosi ʻae fakamoʻoni ki he fakatau, ʻaia naʻe fakamaau, pea mo ia naʻe ʻikai fakamaau, ʻo hangē ko e anga ʻoe fono:
12 incwadi yokuthenga le ngayinika uBharukhi indodana kaNeriya, indodana kaMahaseyiya; umzawami uHanameli ekhona kanye labafakazi ababesayine incwadi yokuthenga lamaJuda wonke ehlezi egumeni labalindi.
Pea u foaki ʻae fakamoʻoni ʻae fakatau kia Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia, ko e foha ʻo Māseia, ʻi he ʻao ʻo Hanamili ko e foha ʻoe tokoua ʻo ʻeku tamai, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau fakamoʻoni naʻe tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe fakatau, pea ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau Siu naʻe nofo ʻi he lotoʻā ʻoe fale fakapōpula.
13 Nganika uBharukhi imilayo le labo bekhona ngathi:
“Pea naʻaku fekau kia Paluki ʻi honau ʻao, ʻo pehē,
14 ‘UThixo uSomandla uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Thatha izincwadi lezi zesivumelwano sokuthenga enanyekiweyo lengananyekwanga uzifake embizeni yomdaka ukuze zihlale khona isikhathi eside.
ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; ‘Toʻo ʻae ngaahi fakamoʻoni ki he fakatau, ʻaia ʻoku fakamaʻu, mo ia ʻoku taʻefakamaʻu fakatouʻosi; pea ʻai ia ki he ipu kelekele, koeʻuhi ke tolonga ia ki he ngaahi ʻaho lahi.’
15 UThixo uSomandla uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Izindlu lamasimu lezivini kuzathengwa futhi kulelilizwe.’
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; ‘ʻE toe maʻu ʻae ngaahi fale, mo e ngaahi ngoue, pea mo e ngaahi ngoue vaine ʻi he fonua ni.’
16 Emva kokuba uBharukhi indodana kaNeriya sengimphile incwadi yokuthenga, ngakhuleka kuThixo ngathi:
Pea hili ʻeku tukuange ʻae fakamoʻoni ʻoe fakatau kia Paluki ko e foha ʻo Nelia, naʻaku toki lotu kia Sihova, ʻo pehē,
17 Thixo Wobukhosi, wadala amazulu lomhlaba ngamandla akho amakhulu langengalo yakho eyeluliweyo. Akukho lutho olunzima kuwe.
“ʻEiki ko Sihova! Vakai, kuo ke ngaohi ʻae langi pea mo māmani ʻi ho mālohi lahi pea mo e nima mafao, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku faingataʻa kiate koe:
18 Ubonakalisa uthando kuzinkulungwane kodwa ulethe isijeziso sezono zaboyise ebantwaneni babo ngemva kwabo. Wena Nkulunkulu omkhulu olamandla, obizo lakho nguThixo uSomandla,
Kuo ke fakahā ʻa hoʻo ʻulungāanga ʻofa ki he ngaahi toko afe, pea ʻoku ke totongi ʻae hia ʻae ngaahi tamai ki he fatafata ʻo ʻenau fānau ʻoku muimui ʻiate kinautolu: ko e ʻOtua Lahi, pea Māfimafi, Ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau hono huafa,
19 zinkulu injongo zakho njalo zilamandla izenzo zakho. Amehlo akho ayazibona zonke izindlela zabantu; unika umuntu wonke umvuzo kusiya ngokuziphatha kwakhe langokufanele izenzo zakhe.
Ko e lahi ia ʻi he fakakaukau, pea mālohi ʻi he ngāue: he ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi faianga ʻoe ngaahi fānau ʻae tangata ʻa ho fofonga: ke ʻatu taki taha kiate kinautolu ʻo hangē ko hono ngaahi hala, pea hangē ko e fua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi faianga:
20 Wenza izibonakaliso lezimangaliso eGibhithe, waqhubeka uzenza kwaze kwaba yilolusuku, khona ko-Israyeli laphakathi koluntu lonke, wathola udumo olukhulu lungolwakho lalamhlanje.
ʻA koe naʻa ke fakahā ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga mo e ngaahi meʻa fakaofo ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, pea mo ʻIsileli, pea ki he ngaahi kakai kehe, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni; pea kuo ke fakaongoongoa ho huafa, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi he ʻaho ni;
21 Wakhupha abantu bakho u-Israyeli eGibhithe ngezibonakaliso langezimangaliso; ngesandla esilamandla langengalo eyeluliweyo kanye lokwesaba okukhulu.
Pea kuo ke ʻomi ʻa hoʻo kakai ʻIsileli mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite mo e ngaahi fakaʻilonga, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa fakaofo, ʻaki ʻae nima mālohi, pea mo e nima mafao atu, pea mo e meʻa fakailifia lahi;
22 Wabanika ilizwe leli owawufunge ukulipha okhokho babo, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju.
Pea kuo ke foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae fonua ni, ʻaia naʻa ke fuakava ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai te ke foaki kiate kinautolu, ko e fonua ʻoku fetāfeaki ai ʻae huʻahuhu pea mo e meʻa huʻamelie
23 Beza bafika balithatha, kodwa kabakulalelanga kumbe balandele imithetho yakho; kabakwenzanga owawubalaye ukuthi bakwenze. Ngakho wabehlisela wonke umonakalo lo.
Pea naʻa nau hū ki ai, ʻo maʻu ia ka naʻe ʻikai te nau talangofua ki ho leʻo, pe ʻaʻeva ʻi hoʻo fono; naʻe ʻikai te nau fai ha meʻa ʻe taha ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ke fekau kiate kinautolu ke nau fai: ko ia kuo ke fakahoko kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi kovi ni kotoa pē:
24 Khangela ukuthi akhiwe njani amadundulu okuvimbezela ukuba idolobho lihlaselwe. Ngenxa yenkemba, lendlala lesifo idolobho lizanikelwa kumaKhaladiya alihlaselayo. Owakutshoyo sekusenzakala njengoba ubona khathesi.
“Vakai ki he teu tau, kuo nau haʻu ki he kolo ke kapa ia; pea kuo tukuange ʻae kolo ki he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia, ʻoku tauʻi ʻaki ia ʻae heletā, mo e honge, mo e mahaki fakaʻauha, pea ko ia naʻa ke folofola ki ai kuo hoko; pea vakai, ʻoku ke ʻafio ki ai.
25 Kodwa lanxa idolobho lizanikelwa kumaKhaladiya, wena Thixo Wobukhosi uthe kimi, ‘Thenga insimu ngesiliva kube labafakaza lokho.’”
Pea naʻa ke pehē kiate au, ‘ʻE ʻEiki ko Sihova, Ke ke fakatauʻaki ʻae ngoue ʻae paʻanga, pea fili ha kau fakamoʻoni;’ he kuo tukuange ʻae kolo ki he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia.”
26 Ilizwi likaThixo laselifika kuJeremiya lisithi:
Pea naʻe toki hoko ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia Selemaia, ʻo pehē,
27 “Mina nginguThixo, uNkulunkulu woluntu lonke. Kambe kulento engehlulayo na?
“Vakai, Ko au ko Sihova, Ko e ʻOtua ʻoe kakai kotoa pē: ʻoku ai ha meʻa ʻe faingataʻa kiate au?
28 Ngakho, nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uthi: Sekuseduze ukuthi idolobho leli ngilinikele kumaKhaladiya lakuNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, ozalithumba.
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; Vakai, te u tukuange ʻae kolo ni ki he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia, pea ki he nima ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea te ne maʻu ia:
29 AmaKhaladiya ahlasela idolobho leli azangena alithungele ngomlilo; alitshise, kanye lezindlu lapho abantu abangithukuthelisela khona ngokutshisela uBhali impepha phezu kwezimpahla zezindlu langokuthululela abanye onkulunkulu iminikelo enathwayo.
Pea ʻe haʻu ʻae kau Kalitia, ʻo tauʻi ʻae kolo ni, pea te nau tutu ʻaki ʻae afi ʻae kolo ni, pea tungia mo e ngaahi fale, ʻaia naʻa nau tutu ai ʻi he tuʻa fale ʻae meʻa namu kakala kia Peali, pea lilingi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau inu ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, ke fakahouhauʻi au.
30 Abantu bakoJuda labako-Israyeli benza ububi bodwa emehlweni ami kusukela ebutsheni babo; impela, abantu bako-Israyeli bangithukuthelisa ngalokhu abakwenza ngezandla zabo, kutsho uThixo.
“He kuo fai kovi pe ʻi hoku ʻao ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mo e fānau ʻa Siuta talu ʻenau kei siʻi: he kuo fakahouhau ʻaki pe au ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae ngāue ʻa honau nima, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
31 Kusukela ngosuku elakhiwa ngalo kuze kube khathesi, idolobho leli livusa ukuthukuthela kwami lolaka lwami okwenza kufanele ukuba ngilisuse ebusweni bami.
He kuo hoko kiate au ʻae kolo ni ko e tupuʻanga ʻo ʻeku tuputāmaki mo hoku houhau talu mei he ʻaho naʻa nau langa ai ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni; koeʻuhi ke u hiki ia mei hoku ʻao,
32 Abantu bako-Israyeli labakoJuda bangithukuthelisile ngobubi bonke ababenzileyo, bona, amakhosi abo lezikhulu zabo, abaphristi labaphrofethi babo, abantu bakoJuda labantu baseJerusalema.
Koeʻuhi ko e kovi kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli pea mo e fānau ʻa Siuta, ʻaia kuo nau fakahouhauʻi au, ko kinautolu, mo honau ngaahi tuʻi, mo honau houʻeiki, mo honau kau taulaʻeiki, pea mo honau kau palōfita, pea mo e kau tangata ʻo Siuta, pea mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema.
33 Bangifulathela kabaze bangipha ubuso babo; lanxa ngabafundisa kanenginengi kabalalelanga njalo kabakunakanga ukukhuzwa.
Pea kuo nau fulituʻa kiate au, pea fakahanga atu honau mata: ka naʻaku ako kiate kinautolu, ʻo tuʻu hengihengi hake ke akoʻi ʻakinautolu, ka naʻe ʻikai te nau tokanga ke maʻu ʻae akonaki.
34 Bamisa izithombe zabo ezinengekayo endlini eleBizo lami bayingcolisa.
Ka naʻa nau fokotuʻu ʻenau ngaahi meʻa fakalielia ʻi he fale, ʻaia ʻoku ui ʻaki ʻa hoku huafa, ke fakaʻuliʻi ia.
35 Bakhela uBhali izindawo eziphakemeyo eSigodini saseBheni-Hinomu ukuba banikele amadodana lamadodakazi abo kuMoleki, lanxa ngingazange ngibalaye, kumbe kufike engqondweni yami, ukuthi babokwenza into eyenyanyeka kangaka ngalokho benze uJuda one.
Pea kuo nau langa ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻo Peali, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe foha ʻo Henomi, ke pule ki honau ngaahi foha mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ke ʻalu [ʻi he afi ]kia Moleki; ʻaia naʻaku fekau kiate kinautolu ke ʻoua naʻa nau fai ia, pea naʻe ʻikai siʻi te u loto ki ai, ke ʻoua naʻa nau fai ʻae meʻa fakalielia ni, ke fakaangahalaʻi ʻaki ʻa Siuta.”
36 Liyatsho ngedolobho leli lithi, ‘Ngenkemba, langendlala kanye langesifo lizanikelwa eNkosini yaseBhabhiloni’; kodwa uThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi:
Pea ko eni, ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ki he kolo ni, ʻaia ʻoku mou pehē ki ai, “ʻE tukuange ia ki he nima ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi he heletā, mo e honge, pea mo e mahaki fakaʻauha:”
37 Ngizababuyisa kule indawo ngibenze bahlale ngokuvikelwa.
“Vakai, te u tānaki fakataha ʻakinautolu mei he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻaku kapusi ʻakinautolu ki ai ʻi heʻeku tuputāmaki, mo hoku houhau, pea mo hoku houhau lahi; pea te u toe ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he potu ni pea te u pule ke nau nofo ʻi he fiemālie:
38 Bazakuba ngabantu bami, mina ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo.
Pea te nau hoko ko hoku kakai, pea te u hoko ko honau ʻOtua:
39 Ngizabenza babemunye enhliziyweni lasezenzweni, ukuze bahlale bengesaba, ukuba kube kuhle kubo lasebantwaneni babo emva kwabo.
Pea te u foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae loto pe taha, mo e hala pe taha, koeʻuhi ke nau manavahē kiate au ʻo taʻengata, koeʻuhi ke nau lelei ai, pea lelei mo ʻenau fānau ki mui ʻiate kinautolu:
40 Ngizakwenza labo isivumelwano esingapheliyo: Angiyikuyekela ukwenza okuhle kubo, ngizabafunzelela ukuba bangesabe, ukuze bangangideli.
Pea te u fai mo kinautolu ʻae fuakava taʻengata, ʻe ʻikai te u tafoki meiate kinautolu, ʻi he fai lelei kiate kinautolu; ka te u ʻai ki honau loto ʻae manavahē kiate au, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau liʻaki au.
41 Ngizathokoza ekubenzeleni okuhle njalo ngibagxumeke ngobuqotho kulelilizwe ngenhliziyo yami yonke langomoya wami wonke.
ʻIo, te u fiefia ʻiate kinautolu, ke fai lelei kiate kinautolu, pea ko e moʻoni te u tō ʻakinautolu ʻi he fonua ni ʻaki hoku loto kotoa pea mo hoku laumālie kotoa.”
42 UThixo uthi: Njengoba ngehlisele inkemenkeme le enkulu kangaka phezu kwalababantu, ngokunjalo ngizabapha konke ukuphumelela engabathembisa khona.
“He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; ʻO hangē kuo u ʻomi ʻae kovi lahi ni kotoa pē ki he kakai ni, ʻe pehē foki ʻeku ʻomi ʻae lelei kotoa pē ʻaia kuo u talaʻofa ki ai kiate kinautolu.
43 Amasimu azathengwa futhi kulelilizwe lina elithi ngalo, ‘Lilugwadule oluphundlekileyo, olungelabantu lezinyamazana, ngoba lanikelwa kumaKhaladiya.’
Pea ʻe fakatau ʻae ngaahi ngoue ʻi he fonua ni, ʻaia ʻoku mou pehē ki ai, ʻOku lala ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata pe ha manu ʻi ai; kuo tukuange ia ki he nima ʻoe kau Kalitia.
44 Amasimu azathengwa ngesiliva, lezincwadi zokuthenga zisayinwe, zinanyekwe njalo zifakazelwe elizweni likaBhenjamini, lemizini eseduze leJerusalema, lasemadolobheni akoJuda kanye lasemadolobheni elizwe lamaqaqa, asemawatheni asentshonalanga kanye lawaseNegebi, ngoba ngizabuyisela inotho yabo, kutsho uThixo.”
ʻE fakatau ʻe he kakai ʻae ngaahi ngoue ʻaki ʻae paʻanga, pea ʻe tohi ʻae ngaahi tohi fakamoʻoni, pea fakamaʻu ia, pea ʻe maʻu ʻae kau fakamoʻoni ʻi he fonua ʻo Penisimani, pea mo e ngaahi potu ofi ki Selūsalema, pea ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Siuta, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻi he potu moʻunga, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻi he potu tokalelei, pea mo e ngaahi kolo ʻoe feituʻu tonga: he te u liliu ʻenau pōpula,” ʻoku pehē mai ʻe Sihova.
