UJeremiya 51
1 UThixo uthi: “Khangelani, ngizavusa umoya ochithayo umelane leBhabhiloni labantu beLebhi Khamayi.
Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Kpɔ ɖa, maʋã nugblẽla aɖe ƒe gbɔgbɔ ɖe Babilonia kple ame siwo le Leb Kamai ŋuti.
2 Ngizathumela abezizweni eBhabhiloni ukuba bayihlungule njalo batshabalalise lelizwe layo; bazamelana layo enhlangothini zonke ngosuku lwencithakalo yayo.
Madɔ amedzrowo ɖo ɖe Babilonia be woagbɔe abe lu ene, eye woatsrɔ̃ eƒe anyigba. Woatsi tsitre ɖe eŋu le go sia go me le eƒe gbegblẽ ƒe ŋkeke la dzi.
3 Lingavumeli mtshoki ebopha idandili lakhe loba limyekele egqoka isigqoko sakhe sensimbi. Lingazitshiyi izinsizwa zayo, liliqede du ibutho layo.
Mègana woƒe aŋutrɔdala nagahe eƒe dati me alo atsɔ eƒe akpoxɔnu ado o. Mègakpɔ nublanui na eƒe ɖekakpuiwo o, ke boŋ tsrɔ̃ eƒe aʋakɔ la keŋkeŋkeŋ.
4 Bazawela phansi bebulewe eBhabhiloni belinyazwe okokufa emigwaqweni yayo.
Woadze anyi aku ɖe Babilonia eye woaxɔ abi vevie le eƒe ablɔwo dzi.
5 Ngoba u-Israyeli loJuda kabalahlwanga nguNkulunkulu wabo, uThixo uSomandla, lanxa nje ilizwe labo ligcwele ukona phambi koNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
Elabena Israel kple Yuda ƒe Mawu la Yehowa Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, megbe wo o, togbɔ be woƒe anyigba la yɔ fũu kple nu vɔ̃ le Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la ƒe ŋkume hã.
6 Balekani eBhabhiloni! Sindisani impilo yenu! Lingabhujiswa ngenxa yezono zayo. Yisikhathi sokuphindisela kukaThixo; uzaphindisela kuyo ngokufaneleyo.
“Misi tso Babilonia! Si ne nàɖe wò agbe! Womegatsrɔ̃ wò le eƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta o. Ɣeyiɣi de na Yehowa ƒe hlɔ̃biabia, axe fe si dzee la nɛ.
7 IBhabhiloni yayiyinkezo yegolide esandleni sikaThixo; yenza umhlaba wonke wadakwa. Izizwe zanatha iwayini layo; ngakho khathesi sezihlanya.
Babilonia nye sikakplu le Yehowa ƒe asi me, eye wòna xexea me katã mu aha. Dukɔwo no eƒe wain, eya ta fifi laa la, wo katã wodze aɖaʋa.
8 IBhabhiloni izakuwa masinyane idilike. Ilileleni! Idingeleni umuthi wokupholisa ubuhlungu bayo; mhlawumbe ingasila.
Babilonia adze anyi kpata, eye woagbã gudugudu. Fa avi sesĩe ɖe eta! Di dɔyɔmi na eƒe vevesese, ɖewohĩ akpɔ dɔyɔyɔ.
9 ‘IBhabhiloni kade singayelapha kodwa kayelapheki; kasiyitshiyeni kuthi lowo lalowo aye elizweni lakibo, ngoba ukwahlulela kufika emikhathini kuqonga kuze kufike emayezini.
“‘Anye ne míeyɔ dɔ Babilonia, gake womate ŋu ayɔ dɔe o; mina mía dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nayi eƒe du me, agblẽe ɖi, elabena eƒe ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ ɖatɔ dziƒo, eye wòkɔ abe lilikpo ene.’
10 UThixo usebonakalisile ukuthi kasilacala, wozani sibike eZiyoni osekwenziwe nguThixo uNkulunkulu wethu.’
“‘Yehowa tso afia na mí, miva, míaɖe gbeƒã nu si Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la wɔ le Zion.’
11 Lolani imitshoko; thathani amahawu! UThixo usevuse amakhosi amaMede ngoba inhloso yakhe yikuchitha iBhabhiloni. UThixo uzaphindisela, aphindisele ngenxa yethempeli lakhe.
“Minyre aŋutrɔwo, mitsɔ akpoxɔnuwo! Yehowa de adã ta me na Media fiawo elabena eƒe taɖodzinue nye be wòatsrɔ̃ Babilonia. Yehowa abia hlɔ̃, abia hlɔ̃ na eƒe gbedoxɔ.
12 Phakamiselani imiduli yaseBhabhiloni uphawu! Qinisani ukulinda, bekani abalindayo, lungiselani ukucathamela! UThixo uzafeza inhloso yakhe, isimiso sakhe ngabantu baseBhabhiloni.
Mikɔ aflaga dzi ɖe Babilonia ƒe gliwo ŋu! Miyɔ dzɔla bubuwo vɛ va kpe esiwo li xoxo, miɖo gbetakpɔlawo wo nɔƒe, eye mina amewo nade xa ɖi na wo. Yehowa awɔ ɖe nu si wòɖo la dzi, awɔ nu siwo wògblɔ ɖi ɖe Babiloniatɔwo ŋuti la dzi.
13 Lina elihlala ngasemanzini amanengi, njalo lilenotho enengi, isiphetho senu sesifikile, isikhathi senu sokuqunywa.
Mi ame siwo le tɔsisi geɖewo to eye kesinɔnu geɖewo le mia si, miaƒe nuwuwu ɖo, ɣeyiɣi de be woatsrɔ̃ mi,
14 UThixo uSomandla usefungile ngayo wathi: Impela ngizakugcwalisa ngabantu abangangesikhongwane, njalo bazaklabalala ngamacilongo ngaphezu kwakho.
Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, ta eɖokui ƒe agbe be: Mana amewo nayɔ mewò fũu abe ʋetsuviwo ƒe ha wonye ene, eye woado dziɖuɖu ƒe ɣli ɖe tawò.
15 Wenza umhlaba ngamandla akhe; wamisa umhlaba ngokuhlakanipha kwakhe njalo wendlala lamazulu ngokuqedisisa kwakhe.
“Eƒe ŋusẽ wòtsɔ wɔ anyigbae; eyae na anyigba dzɔ to eƒe nunya me, eye wòtsɔ eƒe nugɔmesese keke dziƒowo mee.
16 Lapho evungama, amanzi asemazulwini ayahlokoma; wenza amayezi aphakame evela emikhawulweni yomhlaba. Uthumela umbane ulezulu njalo akhuphe umoya eziphaleni zakhe.
Ne eɖe gbe la, tsi siwo le dziƒowo tea gbe eye wònana lilikpowo hona tso anyigba ƒe mlɔenu ke. Eɖoa dzikedzo kple tsidzadza ɖa eye wòɖea yaƒoƒo doa goe tso eƒe nudzraɖoƒewo.
17 Abantu bonke kabalangqondo njalo kabalalwazi; wonke umkhandi wegolide uyangiswa yizithombe zakhe. Izithombe zakhe azenzayo ziyinkohliso; kazilamphefumulo phakathi kwazo.
“Amegbetɔwo katã nye movitɔwo eye nunya mele tagbɔ na wo o. Sikanutula ɖe sia ɖe ƒe legbawo akpe ŋu nɛ. Eƒe legbawo nye beble elabena agbe mele wo me o.
18 Ziyize, izinto zenhlekisa nje; lapho ukwahlulelwa kwazo sekufikile, zizabhubha.
Nu maɖinuwo kple alɔmeɖenuwo wonye, ne woƒe ʋɔnudrɔ̃gbe ɖo la, woatsrɔ̃.
19 Lowo oyingxenye yesizwe sikaJakhobe kafani lalaba, ngoba unguMenzi wezinto zonke, kubalwa labantu belifa lakhe, ibizo lakhe nguThixo uSomandla.
Ke ame si nye Yakob ƒe gome la mele abe esiawo ene o, elabena eyae nye nuwo katã wɔla eye eya kee wɔ dukɔ si nye eƒe domenyinu, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔe nye eŋkɔ.
20 Wena uyinduku yami yempi, isikhali sami sokulwa ngawe ngitshabalalisa izizwe, ngawe ngichitha imibuso;
“Aʋawɔkpo kple aʋawɔnu nènye nam, wòe metsɔ kaka dukɔwoe, wòe metsɔ tsrɔ̃ fiaɖuƒewoe.
21 ngawe ngihlifiza ibhiza lomgadi walo, ngawe ngihlifiza inqola yempi lomtshayeli wayo,
Wòe metsɔ kaka sɔ kple sɔdolae, wòe metsɔ kaka tasiaɖam kple ekulae.

Wòe metsɔ kaka ŋutsu kple nyɔnue; wòe metsɔ kaka ame tsitsiwo kple sɔhɛwoe, wòe metsɔ kaka ɖekakpui kple ɖetugbie.

24 Emehlweni enu ngizaphindisela kuyo iBhabhiloni lakubo bonke abahlala kuyo ngenxa yobubi bonke ababenzileyo eZiyoni,” kutsho uThixo.
“Le miaƒe ŋkume maxe fe na Babilonia kple Babilonianɔlawo katã, ɖe nu gbegblẽ siwo katã wova wɔ le Zion la ta.” Yehowae gblɔe.
25 “Ngimelana lawe, wena ntaba echithayo, wena ochitha umhlaba wonke,” kutsho uThixo. “Ngizakwelulela isandla sami kuwe, ngikugiqe usuka emaweni, ngikwenze ube yintaba eyatshiswayo.
Yehowa be, “Metso ɖe ŋuwò, O, wò to nugblẽla, wò si gblẽ xexea me katã. Mado nye asi ɖe gbɔwò, atu asi wò nàmli age tso to dzi adze anyi eye mawɔ wò abe to si dzo bi la ene.
26 Akulalitshe elizasuswa kuwe ukuba libe ngelekhoneni, loba elinye ilitshe ukuba ngelesisekelo ngoba lizachithwa kokuphela,” kutsho uThixo.
Womagaɖe kpe aɖeke le mewò atsɔ wɔ dzogoedzikpe alo gɔmeɖokpee o elabena àzu gbegbe tegbee.” Yehowae gblɔe.
27 “Phakamisani uphawu elizweni! Khalisani icilongo phakathi kwezizwe! Lungisani izizwe ukuba zilwe layo; ibizeleni imibuso le: i-Ararathi leMini kanye le-Ashikhenazi. Ibekeleni umlawuli wokulwa layo; lithumele amabhiza anjengomtshitshi wentethe.
“Kɔ aflaga dzi le anyigba la dzi! Ku kpẽ la le dukɔwo dome! Dzra dukɔwo ɖo woakpe aʋa kplii. Yɔ fiaɖuƒe siawo woava sɔ ɖe eŋu, Ararat, Mini kple Askenaz. Ɖo aʋafia ɖe eŋu, eye nàdɔ sɔ siwo sɔ gbɔ abe ʋetsuviwo ene la ɖe eŋu.
28 Lungisani izizwe ukuba zilwe layo, amakhosi amaMede, ababusi bawo lezikhulu zawo, kanye lamazwe wonke awabusayo.
Dzra dukɔwo ɖo ne woakpe aʋa kplii. Media fiawo, woƒe dziɖulawo, woƒe dɔnunɔlawo katã kple dukɔ siwo katã dzi ɖum wole la nakpe aʋa kplii.
29 Ilizwe liyaqhaqhazela libhinqike ngoba inhloso kaThixo yokumelana leBhabhiloni imi injalo ukuchitha ilizwe leBhabhiloni ukuze kungabikhona ohlala kulo.
Anyigba ʋuʋu hedzo nyanyanya elabena Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo ɖe Babilonia ŋu le te be, wòado gbegbe Babilonianyigba ale be ame aɖeke maganɔ edzi akpɔ o.
30 Amabutho aseBhabhiloni aseyekele ukulwa; ahlezi ezinqabeni zawo. Amandla awo asephelile. Asebe njengabesifazane. Izindawo zayo zokuhlala zithungelwe ngomlilo; imigoqo lamasango kwephukile.
Babilonia ƒe kalẽtɔwo dzudzɔ aʋawɔwɔ eye wotsi woƒe mɔ sesẽwo me. Ŋusẽ vɔ le wo ŋu, eye wole ko abe nyɔnuwo ene. Wotɔ dzo eƒe nɔƒewo eye woŋe eƒe agbometiwo.
31 Esinye isithunywa silandela esinye; lesithunywa silandela esinye isithunywa ukuyabika enkosini yaseBhabhiloni ukuthi idolobho lonke selithunjiwe,
Duƒula kplɔ duƒula ɖo eye dɔtsɔla kplɔ dɔtsɔla ɖo ne woaɖagblɔ na Babilonia fia be, woxɔ eƒe du la
32 amazibuko emifula athethwe, amaxhaphozi atshiswe ngomlilo lamabutho ethukile.”
kple tɔtsoƒewo hetɔ dzo simenyigba eye ŋɔdzi lé asrafoawo.”
33 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: “Indodakazi yaseBhabhiloni injengesiza sokubhulela ngesikhathi sokunyathelwa kwaso; isikhathi sokuvunwa kwayo sizafika masinyane.”
Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye esi: “Babilonia vinyɔnu le abe lugbɔƒe si le lalam la ene; eye esusɔ vie nuŋeɣi naɖo nɛ.”
34 “UNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni usesidlile, usesenze saphambana amakhanda, usesenze saba yimbiza engelalutho. Usesiginyile njengenyoka, wagcwalisa isisu sakhe ngezibiliboco zethu, wasesihlanza futhi.
“Babilonia fia, Nebukadnezar vuvu mí, de tɔtɔ mía dome eye wòwɔ mí míele abe tsizɔ ƒuƒluwo ene. Emi mí abe ʋɔ ene, eye wòtsɔ míaƒe nu viviwo ɖi ƒoe na eɖokui, emegbe etu mí ƒu gbe.
35 Udlakela olwenziwe emizimbeni yethu kalube phezu kweBhabhiloni,” kutsho abahlala eZiyoni. “Igazi lethu kalibe phezu kwalabo abahlala eBhabhiloni,” kutsho iJerusalema.
Ŋuta si Babilonia sẽ le míaƒe ŋutilãwo ŋuti la neva edzi. Zion nɔlawoe gblɔe.” “Míaƒe ʋu neva Babilonianɔlawo ƒe ta dzi.” Yerusalemtɔwoe gblɔe.
36 Ngakho uThixo uthi: “Khangelani, imfanelo yenu ngizayivikela, ngiliphindiselele; ngizacitsha ulwandle lwayo ngomise lemithombo yayo.
Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Kpɔ ɖa, maʋli tawò eye mabia hlɔ̃ na wò. Mana eƒe atsiaƒu namie ƒiaƒiaƒia eye eƒe vudowo me naƒu kplakplakpla.
37 IBhabhiloni izakuba yinqumbi yonxiwa, isikhundla samakhanka, into yokwesatshwa lokuklolodelwa, indawo engahlali muntu.
Babilonia azu anyiglago, amegãxiwo nɔƒe eye wòazu ŋɔdzinu kple fewuɖunu, teƒe si ame maganɔ akpɔ o.
38 Abantu bayo bonke bayabhonga njengezilwane ezincane, bayahwabha njengemidlwane yesilwane.
Eƒe amewo katã le gbe ɖem abe dzatawo ene eye wole gbe tem abe dzataviwo ene.
39 Kodwa lapho besesebukhali, ngizabenzela idili ngibadakise, ukuze baklabalale ngohleko, babe sebelala kokuphela bangavuki futhi,” kutsho uThixo.
Ke ne dzo ɖo lãme na wo vɔ keŋ la, maɖo nuɖukplɔ̃ na wo, eye mana woamu aha, ale gbegbe be woado ɣli anɔ nu kom xaxaxa, emegbe woadɔ alɔ̃ tegbee, eye womanyɔ akpɔ o.” Yehowae gblɔe.
40 “Ngizabehlisela phansi njengamawundlu esilaheni, njengenqama lembuzi.
“Mana woakplɔ wo vɛ abe alẽviwo, agbowo kple gbɔ̃wo ene ayi wuwu ge.
41 Yeka ukuthunjwa okuzakwenziwa iSheshaki, ukuzincoma komhlaba wonke kuthunjiwe! Yeka ukutshaqisa iBhabhiloni ezakuba yikho phakathi kwezizwe!
“Aleke woahalé Sesak eye asi asu anyigba blibo la ƒe adegbeƒola dzi! Aleke Babilonia azu ŋɔdzinu le dukɔwo dome!
42 Ulwandle luzaphakama phezu kweBhabhiloni; amagagasi alo ahlokomayo ayisibekele.
Atsiaƒu aɖɔ agbagba ɖe Babilonia dzi eƒe ƒutsotsoe dzeagbowo aŋe atsyɔ edzi.
43 Amadolobho ayo azachitheka, ilizwe elomileyo leliyinkangala, ilizwe okungekho ohlala khona, okungekho muntu odabula phakathi kwalo.
Eƒe duwo azu aƒedo, kuɖiɖinyigba, dzogbenyigba kple anyigba si dzi ame maganɔ alo mɔzɔla aɖe nato ayi o.
44 Ngizamjezisa uBheli eBhabhiloni ngimenze akuhlanze lokho akuginyileyo. Izizwe kazisayikujulukela kuye. Njalo umduli weBhabhiloni uzakuwa.
Mahe to na Bel le Babilonia eye mana wòaɖe nu si wòmi. Dukɔwo magaƒo zi ayi egbɔ o eye Babilonia ƒe gliwo amu adze anyi.
45 Bantu bami, phumani kulo iBhabhiloni! Balekelani ukufa! Balekelani ulaka olwesabekayo lukaThixo.
“Nye amewo, mido le wo dome! Misi kple du ne miaɖe miaƒe agbe! Misi le Yehowa ƒe dziku helĩhelĩ la nu.
46 Lingaphelelwa lithemba kumbe lesabe lapho kuzwakala amahungahunga elizweni; elinye ihungahunga lifika lonyaka, elinye kozayo, amahungahunga odlakela elizweni awombusi evukela umbusi.
Ne nyawo le ɖiɖim le anyigba dzi, ƒe sia me miese be ale, eye ƒe kemɛ me wobe ale, ne miese ŋutasesẽ le anyigba dzi, eye dziɖula tso ɖe dziɖula ŋu la, dzi megaɖe le mia ƒo alo miavɔ̃ o.
47 Ngoba isikhathi sizafika impela lapho ngizajezisa izithombe zaseBhabhiloni; ilizwe layo lonke lizayangeka lababuleweyo bayo bonke bazawela phakathi kwayo.
Elabena ɣeyiɣi li gbɔna, esi mahe to na Babilonia legbawo godoo eye ŋukpe alé eƒe anyigba blibo la ale be eƒe Ame tsiaʋawo akaka ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi.
48 Lapho-ke izulu lomhlaba lakho konke okukukho kuzamemezela intokozo ngeBhabhiloni, ngoba abachithi bazayihlasela bevelela enyakatho,” kutsho uThixo.
Ekema dziƒo kple emenuwo kple anyigba kple edzinuwo katã ado ɣli kple dzidzɔ ɖe Babilonia ŋu, elabena nugblẽlawo atso anyiehe ava ƒo ɖe edzi.” Yehowae gblɔe.
49 “IBhabhiloni kumele idilike ngenxa yabako-Israyeli ababulawayo, njengokubulawa kwabantu emhlabeni wonke, batshabalala ngenxa yeBhabhiloni.
“Abe ale si Israel kple anyigba bubuwo dzi tɔwo tsi aʋae le Babilonia ta ene la, nenema wòle na eya hã be wòamu adze anyi.
50 Lina eliphephileyo enkembeni, sukani njalo lingalibali! Khumbulani uThixo elizweni elikude, licabange langeJerusalema.”
Mi ame siwo si le yi nu, midzo, migatɔ ɖi o! Miɖo ŋku Yehowa dzi le didiƒenyigba dzi eye mibu Yerusalem ŋu.”
51 “Siyangekile, ngoba siqalekisiwe, lehlazo lembese ubuso bethu, ngoba abezizweni bangene ezindaweni ezingcwele zendlu kaThixo.”
“Wodo ŋukpe mí elabena wodzu mí eye ŋukpe tsyɔ míaƒe mowo, elabena amedzrowo ge ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe teƒe kɔkɔewo.”
52 UThixo uthi, “Kodwa insuku ziyeza, lapho engizajezisa khona izithombe zayo, njalo elizweni layo lonke abalimeleyo bazabubula.
Yehowa be, “Gake ŋkekewo li gbɔna esi mahe to na eƒe legbawo eye abixɔlawo anɔ ŋeŋem le eƒe anyigba blibo la dzi.
53 Lanxa iBhabhiloni ingafinyelela emkhathini iqinise izinqaba zayo eziphakemeyo, ngizathumela abachithi bayihlasele,” kutsho uThixo.
Ne Babilonia kɔ yi ɖatɔ dziŋgɔli, eye wòglã eƒe mɔ kɔkɔwo gɔ̃ hã la, madɔ nugblẽlawo ɖe eŋu.” Yehowae gblɔe.
54 “Umsindo wokukhala uvela eBhabhiloni, umsindo wencithakalo enkulu ovela elizweni lamaKhaladiya.
“Avi le ɖiɖim tso Babilonia, gbegblẽ ƒe ɣli gã aɖe le ɖiɖim tso Babiloniatɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi.
55 UThixo uzayichitha iBhabhiloni; uzathulisa umsindo wayo wenhlokomo. Amagagasi ezitha azahlokoma njengamanzi amanengi; ukuvungama kwamazwi azo kuzazwakala.
Yehowa atsrɔ̃ Babilonia, eye wòatsi eƒe hoowɔwɔ nu. Abe ale si ƒutsotsoewo ɖea gbee ne ƒu dze agbo ene la, nenema futɔwo ƒe gbe aɖii ne wova ƒo ɖe edzi.
56 Umchithi uzakuzahlasela iBhabhiloni; amabutho ayo azathunjwa, lamadandili awo azakwephuka. Ngoba uThixo unguNkulunkulu wempindiselo; uzaphindisela ngokugcweleyo.
Nugblẽla aɖe ava ƒo ɖe Babilonia dzi eye wòalé eƒe kalẽtɔwo, ahaŋe woƒe dawo elabena Mawu, nuteƒeɖolae nye Yehowa, aɖo eteƒe na wo wòade pɛpɛpɛ.
57 Ngizadakisa izikhulu lezihlakaniphi zayo, kanye lababusi bayo, lezinduna kanye lamabutho; bazalala kokuphela bangavuki futhi,” kutsho uThixo, obizo lakhe nguThixo uSomandla.
Mana woƒe dɔnunɔlawo kple woƒe nunyalawo namu aha, nenema kee nye woƒe dziɖulawo, dudɔnunɔlawo kple kalẽtɔwo siaa; woadɔ alɔ̃ tegbee eye womaganyɔ gbeɖe o.” Fia si ŋkɔe nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe.
58 UThixo uSomandla uthi: “Umduli oqatha weBhabhiloni uzabhidlizwa lamasango ayo aphakemeyo athungelwe ngomlilo; abantu bazidinisela ize, umsebenzi wezizwe ungamafutha amalangabi nje kuphela.”
Ale Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la gblɔe nye esi: “Woagbã Babilonia ƒe glikpɔ sesẽ la gudugudu eye woatɔ dzo eƒe agbo kɔkɔ la, emenɔlawo ka hiã wo ɖokuiwo yakatsyɔ eye dukɔwo ƒe agbagbadzedze zu ami si kɔm wole ɖe dzoa me.”
59 Leli yilizwi uJeremiya umphrofethi alinika induna yamabutho uSeraya indodana kaNeriya, indodana kaMahaseyiya, esesiya eBhabhiloni loZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ngomnyaka wesine wokubusa kwakhe.
Esia nye gbedeasi si Yeremia tsɔ na dɔnunɔlagã Seraya, Neria ƒe vi, Mahseya ƒe vi, esi wòyi ɖe Babilonia kple Yuda fia Zedekia, le eƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe enelia me.
60 UJeremiya wayelobe emqulwini ngomonakalo wonke owawuzakwehlela iBhabhiloni lakho konke okwakubhalwe ngeBhabhiloni.
Yeremia ŋlɔ gbegblẽ siwo katã ava Babilonia dzi la ɖe lãgbalẽ dzi eye wonye nyaŋlɔɖiwo tso Babilonia ŋuti.
61 Wathi kuSeraya, “Lapho usufikile eBhabhiloni ubowafunda wonke amazwi la ngelizwi eliphakemeyo.
Egblɔ na Seraya be, “Kpɔ egbɔ be yexlẽ nya siawo kple ɣli ne mieva ɖo Babilonia.
62 Ube ususithi, ‘Awu Thixo, wathi indawo le uzayichitha ukuze kungabi lamuntu kumbe inyamazana ezahlala kuyo; izaphundleka kuze kube nininini.’
Emegbe nàgblɔ be, ‘O Yehowa, ègblɔ be yele teƒe sia tsrɔ̃ ge ale gbegbe be amegbetɔwo alo lãwo manɔ anyi o; azu aƒedo tegbetegbee.’
63 Lapho usuqedile ukubala umqulu lo, ubophele ilitshe kuwo uwuphosele kuYufrathe,
Ne èxlẽ lãgbalẽ sia me nyawo vɔ la, tsɔ kpe bla ɖe lãgbalẽ la ŋuti eye nàtsɔe aƒu gbe ɖe Frat tɔsisi la me.
64 ubususithi, ‘Izatshona kanje iBhabhiloni ingabe isavumbuluka ngenxa yomonakalo engizayehlisela wona. Labantu bayo bazakuwa.’” Amazwi kaJeremiya aphelela lapha.
Ekema nàgblɔ be, ‘Alea Babilonia adze toe eye magaho ɖe dzi akpɔ o, le gbegblẽ si mahe va edzii la ta. Eƒe amewo hã atsi aʋa.’” Yeremia ƒe nyawo wu nu ɖe afii.
