< UJeremiya 45 >
1 Lokhu yikho uJeremiya umphrofethi akutshela uBharukhi indodana kaNeriya ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakhimi indodana kaJosiya inkosi yakoJuda, emva kokuba uBharukhi elobe emqulwini amazwi ayekhulunywe nguJeremiya esithi,
犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬第四年,尼利亚的儿子巴录将先知耶利米口中所说的话写在书上。耶利米说:
2 “UThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi kuwe, Bharukhi:
“巴录啊,耶和华—以色列的 神说:
3 Wena wathi, ‘Maye mina! UThixo usengezelele usizi ebuhlungwini bami; sengikhathele ngokububula njalo kangikutholi ukuphumula.’
巴录曾说:‘哀哉!耶和华将忧愁加在我的痛苦上,我因唉哼而困乏,不得安歇。’
4 UThixo wathi, Khuluma lokhu kuye uthi: ‘UThixo uthi: Ngizadiliza esengikwakhile ngiphinde ngisiphune esengikuhlanyele elizweni lonke.
你要这样告诉他,耶和华如此说:我所建立的,我必拆毁;我所栽植的,我必拔出;在全地我都如此行。
5 Lapho-ke uzazifunela izinto ezinkulu na? Ungazidingi, ngoba ngizaletha umonakalo ebantwini bonke, kutsho uThixo, kodwa wena loba kungaphi oya khona ngizakwenza uphephe lokuphila kwakho.’”
你为自己图谋大事吗?不要图谋!我必使灾祸临到凡有血气的。但你无论往哪里去,我必使你以自己的命为掠物。这是耶和华说的。”
