UJeremiya 48
1 Mayelana leMowabi: UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: “Maye kuyo iNebho ngoba izachithwa. IKhiriyathayimi izayangeka njalo ithunjwe; inqaba izayangeka ibhidlizwe.
Of Moab thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel woe! to Nebo for it will be devastated it will be put to shame it will be captured Kiriathaim it will be put to shame the stronghold and it will be shattered.
2 IMowabi kayiyikudunyiswa futhi; eHeshibhoni abantu bazaceba ukumbhidliza: besithi, ‘Wozani sitshabalalise isizwe lesiyana.’ Lawe, wena Madimeni uzathuliswa; inkemba izaxotshana lawe.
There not again [will be] [the] praise of Moab in Heshbon people have planned on it calamity come and let us cut off it from a nation also O Madmen you will be silent after you it will go [the] sword.
3 Zwanini ukukhala okuvela eHoronayimi; ukukhala komonakalo omkhulu lencithakalo.
[the] sound of A cry of distress from Horonaim devastation and destruction great.
4 IMowabi izachitheka; abancinyane bayo bazakhala.
It will be broken Moab they will make heard a cry of distress (servants its. *Q(K)*)
5 Baqansa ngendlela eya eLuhithi, bahamba belila kabuhlungu, emgwaqweni owehlela eHoronayimi, kuzwakala ukukhala okulosizi ngenxa yokuchitheka.
For [the] ascent of (Luhith *Q(K)*) with weeping someone will ascend weeping for on [the] descent of Horonaim [the] distresses of [the] crys of destruction people will hear.
6 Balekani! Gijimani lizivikele ekufeni; wobani njengesihlahla enkangala.
Flee save life your so they may be like a juniper bush in the wilderness.
7 Njengoba lithembe izenzo zenu lenotho yenu, lani futhi lizathunjwa, loKhemoshi uzakuya ekuthunjweni, kanye labaphristi bakhe lezikhulu zakhe.
For because trusting you in deeds your and in treasures your also you you will be captured and he will go out (Chemosh *Q(k)*) in exile priests his and officials his (together. *Q(k)*)
8 Umchithi uzafika emadolobheni wonke, njalo akukho dolobho elizaphepha. Isigodi sizatshabalaliswa, lamagceke azaqothulwa ngoba uThixo usekhulumile.
So he may come a destroyer to every city and a city not it will escape and it will be destroyed the valley and it will be destroyed the plain which he has spoken Yahweh.
9 Fakani itswayi kuyo iMowabi ngoba izachitheka; amadolobho ayo azakuba ngamanxiwa angayikuba lamuntu ozahlala kuwo.
Give salt to Moab for [surely] flying it will go out and cities its a waste they will become from not inhabitant in them.
10 Yeka isithuko kulowo oyekethisayo ekwenzeni umsebenzi kaThixo! Yeka isithuko kulowo ogodla inkemba yakhe ekuchitheni igazi!
[is] cursed [one who] does [the] work of Yahweh slackness and [is] cursed [one who] withholds sword his from blood.
11 IMowabi ibiphumule kusukela ebutsheni bayo njengewayini elisele phezu kwezinsipho zalo, elingathelwanga kwenye imbiza lisuswa kwenye kayithunjwanga. Ngakho inambitheka njengakuqala, iphunga layo kaliguqukanga.
It has been at ease Moab since youth its and [has been] undisturbed it to lees its and not it has been poured from vessel to vessel and in exile not it has gone there-fore it has remained taste its in it and aroma its not it has been changed.
12 Kodwa insuku ziyeza, lapho ngizathuma abantu abathulula okusembizeni, njalo bazayithululela phandle; bazachitha okusezimbizeni zayo bazimahlaze imbiza zayo.
Therefore here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will send to it [those who] tip and they will tip it and vessels its they will empty out and jars their they will smash.
13 Lapho-ke iMowabi izayangeka ngoKhemoshi njengokuyangeka kwendlu ka-Israyeli lapho babethembe iBhetheli.
And it will be ashamed Moab from Chemosh just as they were ashamed [the] house of Israel from Beth-el trust their.
14 Lingatsho kanjani na ukuthi, ‘Singamabutho, amadoda alesibindi empini na’?
How? will you say [are] warriors we and men of strength for battle.
15 IMowabi izachithwa, amadolobho ayo ahlaselwe; amajaha ayo aqinileyo azacakazelwa phansi abulawe,” kutsho iNkosi, obizo layo nguThixo uSomandla.
It will be devastated Moab and cities its he will go up and [the] choicest of young men its they will go down to the slaughter [the] utterance of the king [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.
16 “Ukuwa kweMowabi sekuseduze; umonakalo wayo uzafika ngokuphangisa.
[is] near [the] disaster of Moab to coming and calamity its it will hasten exceedingly.
17 Ikhaleleni lonke lina elakhelene layo, bonke abalwaziyo udumo lwayo, lithi, ‘Yeka ukwephuka kwentonga yobukhosi elamandla, yeka ukwephuka kodondolo oluhle kakhulu!’
Show sympathy to it O all around it and O all [those who] know name its say how! it is broken a staff of strength a staff of splendor.
18 Yehlani ebukhosini benu lihlale emhlabathini owomileyo, lina elihlala eNdodakazini yaseDibhoni. Ngoba lowo ochitha iMowabi uzakuzalihlasela adilize amadolobho enu avikelweyo.
Come down from honor (and sit *Q(K)*) in thirst O inhabitant[s] of [the] daughter of Dibon for [the] destroyer of Moab he will come up on you he will ruin strongholds your.
19 Manini emgwaqweni lilinde, lina elihlala e-Aroweri. Buzani indoda ebalekayo lowesifazane obalekayo; babuzeni lithi, ‘Kwenzakaleni na?’
To [the] road stand and watch O inhabitant[s] of Aroer ask [a man who] flees and [a woman who] escapes say what? has it happened.
20 IMowabi iyangekile, ngoba ichithekile. Lilani likhale! Bikani ngase-Arinoni ukuthi iMowabi itshabalalisiwe.
It has been put to shame Moab for it has been shattered (wail and cry out *Q(K)*) declare at [the] Arnon that it has been devastated Moab.
21 Ukwehlulela sekufikile emagcekeni eHoloni, leJahazi laseMefahathi,
And judgment it will come to [the] land of the plain to Holon and to Jahaz and on (Mephaath. *Q(K)*)
22 eDibhoni, leNebho laseBhethi-Dibhilathayimi,
And on Dibon and on Nebo and on Beth Diblathaim.
23 eKhiriyathayimi, leBhethi-Gamuli laseBhethi Meyoni,
And on Kiriathaim and on Beth Gamul and on Beth Meon.
24 eKheriyothi kanye laseBhozira kuwo wonke amadolobho aseMowabi, aseduze lakhatshana.
And on Kerioth and on Bozrah and on all [the] cities of [the] land of Moab far and near.
25 Uphondo lweMowabi luqunyiwe, ingalo yalo yephuliwe,” kutsho uThixo.
It will be cut off [the] horn of Moab and arm its it will be broken [the] utterance of Yahweh.
26 “Idakiseni ngoba idelele uThixo. IMowabi kayizibhixe ngamahlanzo ayo; kayibe yinto yokuhlekwa.
Make drunk it for on Yahweh it has magnified itself and it will splash Moab in vomit its and it will become a laughing stock also it.
27 U-Israyeli wayengasinto yokuhlekisa kuwe na? Watholakala ephakathi kwamasela na, ukuba unikine ikhanda lakho ngokweyisa ngasosonke isikhathi lapho ukhuluma ngaye?
And? - not the laughing stock was it to you Israel or? among thieves (was it found *Q(K)*) for as often as words your in it you shook yourself.
28 Tshiyani amadolobho enu lihlale emadwaleni, lina elihlala eMowabi. Wobani njengejuba elakhela isidleke salo emlonyeni wobhalu.
Abandon cities and dwell among the rock[s] O inhabitants of Moab and be like a dove [which] it makes a nest on [the] sides of [the] mouth of a ravine.
29 Sizwile ngokuzigqaja kweMowabi, ukuziqakisa kwayo lokuzazisa kwayo! Ukuzigqaja lokuzikhukhumeza kwayo, kanye lokuziphakamisa kwenhliziyo yayo.
We have heard [the] pride of Moab proud very haughtiness its and pride its and boastfulness its and [the] loftiness of heart its.
30 Ngiyakwazi ukudelela kwayo, kodwa kuyize, lokuzincoma kwayo akusizi lutho,” kutsho uThixo
I I know [the] utterance of Yahweh arrogance its and [it is] not right empty boasts its not right they have accomplished.
31 “Ngakho-ke ngiyalila ngeMowabi, ngikhalela iMowabi yonke, ngililela abantu baseKhiri-Haresethi.
There-fore on Moab I will wail and for Moab all of it I will cry out concerning [the] people of Kir Heres he will groan.
32 Ngiyalikhalela njengokulila kweJazeri, lina zivini zaseSibhima. Ingatsha zenu zinaba zifike olwandle, zafika olwandle lwaseJazeri. Umchithi usehlele phezu kwezithelo zakho ezivuthiweyo laphezu kwamavini.
More than [the] weeping of Jazer I will weep for you O vine of Sibmah tendrils your they passed over [the] sea to [the] sea of Jazer they reached on summer fruit your and on grape harvest your a destroyer he has fallen.
33 Ukuthokoza lokuthaba akusekho ezivinini lasemasimini eMowabi. Ukugeleza kwewayini ezikhamelweni sengikumisile; kakho ozalikhama eklabalala ngentokozo. Lanxa kulokuklabalala akusikuklabalala kwentokozo.
And it has been removed joy and rejoicing from [the] garden-land and from [the] land of Moab and wine from wine-presses I have made to cease not anyone will tread shouting shouting not shouting.
34 Umsindo wokukhala kwabo uyaphakama uvelela eHeshibhoni usiya e-Eliyale laseJahazi, uvela eZowari usiyafika eHoronayimi le-Egilathi Shelishiya, ngoba lamanzi aseNimirimi asecitshile.
From [the] cry of distress of Heshbon to Elealeh to Jahaz people will give voice their from Zoar to Horonaim Eglath Shelishiyah for also [the] waters of Nimrim wastes they will become.
35 EMowabi ngizabaqeda labo abanikela iminikelo ezindaweni eziphakemeyo batshisele labonkulunkulu babo impepha,” kutsho uThixo.
And I will put an end to of Moab [the] utterance of Yahweh [one who] offers up a high place and [one who] makes smoke to gods his.
36 “Ngakho inhliziyo yami ikhalela iMowabi njengemfegwana; iyakhala njengemfegwana ikhalela abantu beKhiri-Haresethi. Inotho ababeyizuzile kayisekho.
There-fore heart my for Moab like flutes it will groan and heart my concerning [the] people of Kir Heres like flutes it will groan there-fore [the] wealth [which] he acquired they will be lost.
37 Amakhanda wonke aphuciwe lezindevu zonke zigeliwe; izandla zonke zisikiwe lezinkalo zonke zigqokiswe amasaka.
For every head [will be] baldness and every beard [will be] clipped [will be] on all hands cuts and [will be] on loins sackcloth.
38 Phezu kwezimpahla zonke zezindlu zaseMowabi lasemagcekeni kazulu, akulalutho ngaphandle kokukhala, ngoba iMowabi ngiyibulele njengembiza engafunwa muntu,” kutsho uThixo.
[will be] on All [the] roofs of Moab and in open places its all of it wailing for I will break Moab like a vessel [which] there not [is] pleasure in it [the] utterance of Yahweh.
39 “Yeka ukuphahlazwa kwayo! Yeka ukulila kwabo! Yeka ukufulathela kweMowabi ilehlazo! IMowabi isibe yinto yokuhlekwa; into yokwesatshwa yibo bonke abakhelane layo.”
How! it has been shattered they will wail how! it has turned a neck Moab it will be ashamed and it will become Moab a laughing stock and an object of terror to all around it.
40 UThixo uthi: “Khangela! Ukhozi lwehlela phansi ngesiqubu, lwelulele impiko zalo phezu kweMowabi.
For thus he says Yahweh there! like eagle someone will swoop down and he will spread out wings his against Moab.
41 IKheriyothi izathunjwa, lezinqaba zithunjwe. Ngalolosuku inhliziyo zamabutho aseMowabi zizakuba njengenhliziyo yowesifazane ohelelwayo.
It will be captured Kerioth and the strongholds it will be seized and it will be [the] heart of [the] warriors of Moab on the day that like [the] heart of a woman in labor.
42 IMowabi izachithwa ingabe isaba yisizwe ngoba yadelela uThixo.
And it will be destroyed Moab from a people for on Yahweh it has magnified itself.
43 Ukwesaba lomgodi kanye lomjibila kulilindele lina bantu baseMowabi,” kutsho uThixo.
Terror and pit and snare [will be] on you O inhabitant of Moab [the] utterance of Yahweh.
44 “Loba ngubani obalekela ukwesaba uzawela emgodini, loba ngubani ophuma emgodini uzabanjwa ngumjibila; ngoba ngizakwehlisela phezu kweMowabi umnyaka wokujeziswa kwayo,” kutsho uThixo.
(The [one who] flees *Q(K)*) from before the terror he will fall into the pit and the [one who] climbs up from the pit he will be caught in snare for I will bring to it to Moab [the] year of punishment their [the] utterance of Yahweh.
45 “Emthunzini waseHeshibhoni ababalekayo bayema kungelasizo, ngoba umlilo usuphumile eHeshibhoni, ilangabi elivela phakathi kwakoSihoni; litshisa amabunzi eMowabi inkakhayi zamaqhalaqhala alomsindo.
In [the] shadow of Heshbon they will stand from strength [those who] flee for a fire it will go forth from Heshbon and a flame from between Sihon and it consumed [the] forehead of Moab and [the] scalp of [the] sons of uproar.
46 Maye kuwe! wena Mowabi! Abantu baseKhemoshi babhujisiwe; amadodana athunjiwe lamadodakazi akho athunjiwe.
Woe! to you O Moab it will perish [the] people of Chemosh for they will be taken sons your in captivity and daughters your in captivity.
47 Kodwa inhlanhla ye-Mowabi ngizayibuyisela ensukwini ezizayo,” kutsho uThixo. Ukwahlulelwa kweMowabi kuphelela lapha.
And I will turn back [the] captivity of Moab at [the] end of the days [the] utterance of Yahweh [is] to here [the] judgment of Moab.
