UJeremiya 51
1 UThixo uthi: “Khangelani, ngizavusa umoya ochithayo umelane leBhabhiloni labantu beLebhi Khamayi.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; “Vakai, te u fakatupu ha matangi fakaʻauha ki Papilone, pea mo kinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi ai, ʻakinautolu ʻoku angatuʻu kiate au;
2 Ngizathumela abezizweni eBhabhiloni ukuba bayihlungule njalo batshabalalise lelizwe layo; bazamelana layo enhlangothini zonke ngosuku lwencithakalo yayo.
Pea te u fekau ki Papilone ʻae kau tangata vahevahe kafukafu, pea te nau aloalo ia, pea te nau fakamaha hono fonua: he te nau nofo takatakai ʻiate ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi.
3 Lingavumeli mtshoki ebopha idandili lakhe loba limyekele egqoka isigqoko sakhe sensimbi. Lingazitshiyi izinsizwa zayo, liliqede du ibutho layo.
Pea ʻe teke ʻae kaufana ʻae tangata fakakaufana ki he tangata fakakaufana, pea kiate ia ʻoku hiki hake ia ʻi hono kofu tau: pea ʻoua naʻa mamae ki hono kau talavou; fakaʻauha ʻaupito ʻa ʻene kautau kotoa pē.
4 Bazawela phansi bebulewe eBhabhiloni belinyazwe okokufa emigwaqweni yayo.
ʻE tō pehē ʻae teʻia ʻi he fonua ʻo Kalitia, pea mo kinautolu kuo hokaʻi ke ʻasi ʻi he ngaahi hala.
5 Ngoba u-Israyeli loJuda kabalahlwanga nguNkulunkulu wabo, uThixo uSomandla, lanxa nje ilizwe labo ligcwele ukona phambi koNgcwele ka-Israyeli.
He naʻe ʻikai liʻaki ʻa ʻIsileli, pe ko Siuta ʻe hono ʻOtua, ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; neongo hono pito honau fonua ʻi he angahala ki he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni ʻo ʻIsileli.
6 Balekani eBhabhiloni! Sindisani impilo yenu! Lingabhujiswa ngenxa yezono zayo. Yisikhathi sokuphindisela kukaThixo; uzaphindisela kuyo ngokufaneleyo.
Mou hola mei loto Papilone, pea fakahaofi ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻa ʻene moʻui: ke ʻoua naʻa fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu ʻi heʻene hia: he ko e kuonga eni ʻoe houhau ʻo Sihova: te ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae totongi.
7 IBhabhiloni yayiyinkezo yegolide esandleni sikaThixo; yenza umhlaba wonke wadakwa. Izizwe zanatha iwayini layo; ngakho khathesi sezihlanya.
Ko Papilone ko e ipu koula ʻi he nima ʻo Sihova, ʻaia naʻe fakakonā ʻa māmani kotoa pē: kuo inu ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ki heʻene uaine; ko ia kuo faha ai ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga.
8 IBhabhiloni izakuwa masinyane idilike. Ilileleni! Idingeleni umuthi wokupholisa ubuhlungu bayo; mhlawumbe ingasila.
Kuo hinga pea ʻauha fakafokifā ʻa Papilone: mou tangi kalanga koeʻuhi ko ia; pea ʻange ʻae feau koeʻuhi ko ʻene mamahi, heiʻilo ʻe fakamoʻui ia.
9 ‘IBhabhiloni kade singayelapha kodwa kayelapheki; kasiyitshiyeni kuthi lowo lalowo aye elizweni lakibo, ngoba ukwahlulela kufika emikhathini kuqonga kuze kufike emayezini.
Naʻa mau fie fakamoʻui ʻa Papilone, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne moʻui: liʻaki ia, pea ke tau taki taha ʻalu ki hono fonua: he kuo aʻu ʻa hono tautea ki he langi, pea kuo hiki hake ia ki he ngaahi ʻao.
10 UThixo usebonakalisile ukuthi kasilacala, wozani sibike eZiyoni osekwenziwe nguThixo uNkulunkulu wethu.’
Kuo fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻetau angatonu: ‘Haʻu ke tau fakahā ʻi Saione ʻae ngāue ʻa Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua.’
11 Lolani imitshoko; thathani amahawu! UThixo usevuse amakhosi amaMede ngoba inhloso yakhe yikuchitha iBhabhiloni. UThixo uzaphindisela, aphindisele ngenxa yethempeli lakhe.
Fakangingila ʻae ngaahi ngahau, pea tānaki ʻae ngaahi fakaū: kuo ueʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae laumālie ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Mitia: he kuo ne tokanga ki Papilone ke fakaʻauha ia; koeʻuhi ko e houhau ia ʻo Sihova, ko e totongi koeʻuhi ko hono fale tapu.
12 Phakamiselani imiduli yaseBhabhiloni uphawu! Qinisani ukulinda, bekani abalindayo, lungiselani ukucathamela! UThixo uzafeza inhloso yakhe, isimiso sakhe ngabantu baseBhabhiloni.
“Fokotuʻu ʻae fuka ki he ngaahi ʻā ʻo Papilone, fokotuʻu ʻae kau leʻo mālohi, fakanofo ʻae kau tangata leʻo, teuteu ʻae ngaahi malumu:” he kuo tokanga ʻa Sihova pea kuo fai ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ki he kakai ʻo Papilone.
13 Lina elihlala ngasemanzini amanengi, njalo lilenotho enengi, isiphetho senu sesifikile, isikhathi senu sokuqunywa.
ʻA koe ʻoku ke nofo ʻi he ngaahi vai lahi, pea mohu koloaʻia, kuo hokosia ho ngataʻanga, pea mo e fuofua ʻo hoʻo manumanu.
14 UThixo uSomandla usefungile ngayo wathi: Impela ngizakugcwalisa ngabantu abangangesikhongwane, njalo bazaklabalala ngamacilongo ngaphezu kwakho.
Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻiate ia pe, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e moʻoni te u fakapito ʻaki koe ʻae kau tangata, ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻunufe; pea te nau fai ʻae kalanga kiate koe.’
15 Wenza umhlaba ngamandla akhe; wamisa umhlaba ngokuhlakanipha kwakhe njalo wendlala lamazulu ngokuqedisisa kwakhe.
“Kuo ne ngaohi ʻae kelekele ʻaki hono mālohi, pea kuo ne fokotuʻumaʻu ʻa māmani ʻi heʻene poto, pea kuo ne folahi atu ʻae ngaahi langi ʻi heʻene ʻiloʻilo.
16 Lapho evungama, amanzi asemazulwini ayahlokoma; wenza amayezi aphakame evela emikhawulweni yomhlaba. Uthumela umbane ulezulu njalo akhuphe umoya eziphaleni zakhe.
ʻOka hiki hake ʻe ia hono leʻo ʻoku ai ʻae vai lahi ʻi he langi; pea ʻoku ne pule ke ʻalu hake ʻae ngaahi kakapu mei he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani: ʻoku ne ngaohi ʻae ʻuhila mo e ʻuha, pea ʻomi ʻae matangi mei hono ngaahi feleoko.
17 Abantu bonke kabalangqondo njalo kabalalwazi; wonke umkhandi wegolide uyangiswa yizithombe zakhe. Izithombe zakhe azenzayo ziyinkohliso; kazilamphefumulo phakathi kwazo.
ʻOku vale ʻae tangata taki taha ʻi heʻene ʻilo; ʻoku mā ʻae tufunga taki taha ʻi heʻene meʻa fakatātā kuo tā: he ko e fakatātā kuo haka ko e loi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha mānava ʻiate kinautolu.
18 Ziyize, izinto zenhlekisa nje; lapho ukwahlulelwa kwazo sekufikile, zizabhubha.
Ko e vaʻinga ʻakinautolu, ko e ngāue ʻae kau hē: ʻe ʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo honau ʻaʻahi.
19 Lowo oyingxenye yesizwe sikaJakhobe kafani lalaba, ngoba unguMenzi wezinto zonke, kubalwa labantu belifa lakhe, ibizo lakhe nguThixo uSomandla.
ʻOku ʻikai tatau mo kinautolu ʻae ʻinasi ʻo Sēkope; he ʻoku muʻa ia ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē: pea ko e tokotoko ʻo hono tofiʻa ʻa ʻIsileli: ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau hono huafa.
20 Wena uyinduku yami yempi, isikhali sami sokulwa ngawe ngitshabalalisa izizwe, ngawe ngichitha imibuso;
“Ko koe ko hoku toki ke tau ʻaki mo ʻeku mahafutau: he te u laiki ʻaki koe ke momo ʻae ngaahi fonua, pea te u fakaʻauha ʻaki ko e ngaahi puleʻanga;
21 ngawe ngihlifiza ibhiza lomgadi walo, ngawe ngihlifiza inqola yempi lomtshayeli wayo,
Pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae hoosi mo e tangata ʻoku heka ai; pea teu laiki ʻaki koe ʻae saliote mo e tangata ʻoku heka ai;
22 ngawe ngihlifiza indoda lomfazi, ngawe ngihlifiza amaxhegu labatsha, ngawe ngihlifiza izinsizwa lezintombi,
Pea te u laiki ʻaki koe foki ʻae tangata mo e fefine; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻaia ʻoku motuʻa mo e tamasiʻi; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae talavou pea mo e taʻahine.
23 ngawe ngihlifiza abelusi lemihlambi, ngawe ngihlifiza umlimi lenkabi, ngawe ngihlifiza ababusi lezikhulu.
Pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae tauhi mo ʻene fanga sipi; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae tangata ngoue mo ʻene fanga manu; pea te u laiki ʻaki koe ʻae houʻeiki mo e kau pule.
24 Emehlweni enu ngizaphindisela kuyo iBhabhiloni lakubo bonke abahlala kuyo ngenxa yobubi bonke ababenzileyo eZiyoni,” kutsho uThixo.
“Pea te u totongi ki Papilone pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo Kalitia ʻae kovi kotoa pē kuo nau fai ki Saione ʻi homou ʻao,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
25 “Ngimelana lawe, wena ntaba echithayo, wena ochitha umhlaba wonke,” kutsho uThixo. “Ngizakwelulela isandla sami kuwe, ngikugiqe usuka emaweni, ngikwenze ube yintaba eyatshiswayo.
“ʻE moʻunga faʻa fakaʻauha, vakai, ʻoku ou tuʻu kiate koe,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “a koe ʻoku fakaʻauha ʻa māmani kotoa pē: pea te u mafao atu hoku nima kiate koe, pea fakateka koe ki lalo mei he ngaahi makatuʻu, pea te u ngaohi koe ko e moʻunga vela.
26 Akulalitshe elizasuswa kuwe ukuba libe ngelekhoneni, loba elinye ilitshe ukuba ngelesisekelo ngoba lizachithwa kokuphela,” kutsho uThixo.
Pea ʻe ʻikai te nau toʻo meiate koe ʻae maka ke tuliki ʻaki, pe ha maka ke tuʻunga ʻaki; ka te ke lala pe ʻo taʻengata,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
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.
“Mou fokotuʻu ʻae fuka ʻi he fonua, ifi ʻae meʻalea ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga, teuteu ʻae kakai ke tauʻi ia, ui ke fakataha kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ko ʻAlalate, mo Minai, mo ʻAsikenasi; fakanofo kiate ia ʻae pule; fekau ke haʻu kiate ia ʻae fanga hoosi ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻunufe felefele.
28 Lungisani izizwe ukuba zilwe layo, amakhosi amaMede, ababusi bawo lezikhulu zawo, kanye lamazwe wonke awabusayo.
Teuteu kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga, mo e ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Mitia, mo hono ngaahi ʻeikitau, mo hono kau pule kotoa pē, pea mo e fonua kotoa pē ʻo honau puleʻanga.
29 Ilizwe liyaqhaqhazela libhinqike ngoba inhloso kaThixo yokumelana leBhabhiloni imi injalo ukuchitha ilizwe leBhabhiloni ukuze kungabikhona ohlala kulo.
Pea ʻe tetetete ʻae fonua pea mamahi ia: koeʻuhi ʻe fakahoko ki Papilone ʻae tuʻutuʻuni kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, ke ngaohi ʻae fonua ko Papilone ke lala taʻehanokakai.
30 Amabutho aseBhabhiloni aseyekele ukulwa; ahlezi ezinqabeni zawo. Amandla awo asephelile. Asebe njengabesifazane. Izindawo zayo zokuhlala zithungelwe ngomlilo; imigoqo lamasango kwephukile.
ʻOku ʻikai tau ʻae kau tangata mālohi ʻo Papilone, kuo nau nofo ʻi honau ngaahi potu mālohi: kuo mole ʻenau mālohi; kuo nau liliu ʻo hangē ko e kau fefine: kuo tutu honau ngaahi nofoʻanga; kuo fesiʻi honau ngaahi fakamaʻu.
31 Esinye isithunywa silandela esinye; lesithunywa silandela esinye isithunywa ukuyabika enkosini yaseBhabhiloni ukuthi idolobho lonke selithunjiwe,
E lele ʻae tangata talafekau ʻe taha, pea ʻe fakafetaulaki ʻae tangata ongoongo mo e tangata ongoongo, ke tala ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, kuo lavaʻi ʻene kolo mei hono ngataʻanga,
32 amazibuko emifula athethwe, amaxhaphozi atshiswe ngomlilo lamabutho ethukile.”
Pea kuo tāpuni ʻae ngaahi hala, pea kuo tutu ʻae kaho ʻaki ʻae afi, pea kuo ilifia ʻae kau tangata tau.
33 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli: “Indodakazi yaseBhabhiloni injengesiza sokubhulela ngesikhathi sokunyathelwa kwaso; isikhathi sokuvunwa kwayo sizafika masinyane.”
He ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “ʻOku tatau ʻae taʻahine ʻo Papilone mo e hahaʻanga; kuo hokosi ʻae ʻaho ke haha ia: ʻe toetoe siʻi pea ʻe hoko kiate ia hono ututaʻu.
34 “UNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni usesidlile, usesenze saphambana amakhanda, usesenze saba yimbiza engelalutho. Usesiginyile njengenyoka, wagcwalisa isisu sakhe ngezibiliboco zethu, wasesihlanza futhi.
“Kuo kai ʻo ʻosi au, pea kuo fakaʻauha au ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, kuo ne ngaohi au ko e ipu maha, kuo ne folo ʻo ʻosi au ʻo hangē ko e talākoni, kuo ne fakapito hono kete ʻaki ʻeku ngaahi meʻa lelei, kuo ne lī au kituʻa.
35 Udlakela olwenziwe emizimbeni yethu kalube phezu kweBhabhiloni,” kutsho abahlala eZiyoni. “Igazi lethu kalibe phezu kwalabo abahlala eBhabhiloni,” kutsho iJerusalema.
ʻE pehē ʻe he kakai ʻo Saione, “ʻE hoko ki Papilone, ʻae fakamālohi kuo fai kiate au mo hoku kakano:” pea ʻe pehē ʻe Selūsalema, “Ke ʻi he kakai ʻo Kalitia ʻa hoku toto.”
36 Ngakho uThixo uthi: “Khangelani, imfanelo yenu ngizayivikela, ngiliphindiselele; ngizacitsha ulwandle lwayo ngomise lemithombo yayo.
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Vakai, te u langomakiʻi koe, pea te u tautea koeʻuhi ko koe; pea te u fakatafe ke maha hono tahi, pea te u fakamaha hono ngaahi matavai.
37 IBhabhiloni izakuba yinqumbi yonxiwa, isikhundla samakhanka, into yokwesatshwa lokuklolodelwa, indawo engahlali muntu.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻa Papilone ko e potu tokatāmaki, ko e nofoʻanga ʻoe fanga talākoni, ko e meʻa fakaofo, ko e meʻa fakaʻiseʻisa, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻi ai ha kakai.
38 Abantu bayo bonke bayabhonga njengezilwane ezincane, bayahwabha njengemidlwane yesilwane.
Pea te nau ngungulu fakataha ʻo hangē ko e fanga talākoni; pea te nau ueʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻuhikiʻi laione.
39 Kodwa lapho besesebukhali, ngizabenzela idili ngibadakise, ukuze baklabalale ngohleko, babe sebelala kokuphela bangavuki futhi,” kutsho uThixo.
Pea ʻi heʻenau holi ʻe teuteu ʻeau ʻenau ngaahi kātoanga, pea te u fakakonaʻi ʻakinautolu, koeʻuhi ke nau nekeneka, pea mohe ʻi he mohe taʻengata, pea ʻoua naʻa toe ʻā,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
40 “Ngizabehlisela phansi njengamawundlu esilaheni, njengenqama lembuzi.
Pea te u ʻomi ʻakinautolu ʻo hangē ko e fanga lami ki he tāmateʻi, ʻo hangē ko e fanga sipitangata fakataha mo e fanga kosi.
41 Yeka ukuthunjwa okuzakwenziwa iSheshaki, ukuzincoma komhlaba wonke kuthunjiwe! Yeka ukutshaqisa iBhabhiloni ezakuba yikho phakathi kwezizwe!
“Hono ʻikai lavaʻi ʻa Sisake! Pea kuo fēfē ʻae lapasi ʻo ia naʻe ongoongo ʻi māmani kotoa pē! Kuo hoko fēfē ʻa Papilone ko e fakatumutumuanga ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga!
42 Ulwandle luzaphakama phezu kweBhabhiloni; amagagasi alo ahlokomayo ayisibekele.
Kuo hake ʻae tahi ki Papilone: kuo ʻufiʻufi ia ʻaki hono ngaahi peau lahi.
43 Amadolobho ayo azachitheka, ilizwe elomileyo leliyinkangala, ilizwe okungekho ohlala khona, okungekho muntu odabula phakathi kwalo.
Kuo hoko hono ngaahi kolo ko e potu lala, ko e fonua mōmoa, pea ko e toafa, ko e fonua ʻoku ʻikai nofo ai ha tangata, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻalu ai ʻae foha ʻoe tangata.
44 Ngizamjezisa uBheli eBhabhiloni ngimenze akuhlanze lokho akuginyileyo. Izizwe kazisayikujulukela kuye. Njalo umduli weBhabhiloni uzakuwa.
Pea te u tautea ʻa Peli ʻi Papilone, pea te u ʻomi mei hono ngutu ʻaia kuo ne folo hifo: pea ʻe ʻikai toe fakataha kiate ia ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga: ʻio, ʻe hinga ʻae ʻā ʻo Papilone.
45 Bantu bami, phumani kulo iBhabhiloni! Balekelani ukufa! Balekelani ulaka olwesabekayo lukaThixo.
ʻE hoku kakai, mou ʻalu atu mei he lotolotonga ʻo ia, pea taki taha fakamoʻui ʻa hono laumālie mei he houhau kakaha ʻo Sihova.
46 Lingaphelelwa lithemba kumbe lesabe lapho kuzwakala amahungahunga elizweni; elinye ihungahunga lifika lonyaka, elinye kozayo, amahungahunga odlakela elizweni awombusi evukela umbusi.
Pea telia naʻa vaivai homou loto, pea mou manavahē koeʻuhi ko e ongoongo ʻaia ʻe ongoʻi ʻi he fonua; koeʻuhi ʻe hoko mai ʻae ongoongo ʻi he taʻu ʻe taha, pea hili ia ʻe toe hoko mo e ongoongo ʻi he taʻu ʻe taha, mo e fakamālohi ʻi he fonua, ko e pule ki he pule.
47 Ngoba isikhathi sizafika impela lapho ngizajezisa izithombe zaseBhabhiloni; ilizwe layo lonke lizayangeka lababuleweyo bayo bonke bazawela phakathi kwayo.
Ko ia, vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, te u tautea ai ʻae ngaahi tamapua ʻo Papilone: pea ʻe maveuveu hono fonua kotoa pē, pea ʻe tō ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ia ʻa hono kakai mate kotoa pē.
48 Lapho-ke izulu lomhlaba lakho konke okukukho kuzamemezela intokozo ngeBhabhiloni, ngoba abachithi bazayihlasela bevelela enyakatho,” kutsho uThixo.
Pea ʻe toki hiva ki Papilone ʻae ngaahi langi pea mo māmani, pea mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻi ai: ʻe haʻu kiate ia ʻae kau maumau mei he tokelau,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
49 “IBhabhiloni kumele idilike ngenxa yabako-Israyeli ababulawayo, njengokubulawa kwabantu emhlabeni wonke, batshabalala ngenxa yeBhabhiloni.
Hangē kuo tō ʻae mate ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi Papilone ʻe tō pehē ʻi Papilone ʻae tāmateʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
50 Lina eliphephileyo enkembeni, sukani njalo lingalibali! Khumbulani uThixo elizweni elikude, licabange langeJerusalema.”
ʻAlu ʻakimoutolu kuo hao ʻi he heletā, pea ʻoua naʻa veʻetōʻohi: fakamanatu kia Sihova mei he mamaʻo, pea manatu ʻi homou loto ki Selūsalema.”
51 “Siyangekile, ngoba siqalekisiwe, lehlazo lembese ubuso bethu, ngoba abezizweni bangene ezindaweni ezingcwele zendlu kaThixo.”
“Kuo mau puputuʻu, koeʻuhi kuo mau fanongo ki he ongoongo kovi: kuo ʻufiʻufi homau mata ʻaki ʻae mā: koeʻuhi kuo hū mai ʻae kau muli ki he ngaahi potu tapu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova.”
52 UThixo uthi, “Kodwa insuku ziyeza, lapho engizajezisa khona izithombe zayo, njalo elizweni layo lonke abalimeleyo bazabubula.
Ko ia, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Vakai, ʻoku hoko ʻae ngaahi ʻaho, ʻa ia te u tautea ai hono ngaahi tamapua kuo tongi, pea ʻe toʻetoʻe ʻae lavea ʻi hono fonua kotoa pē.
53 Lanxa iBhabhiloni ingafinyelela emkhathini iqinise izinqaba zayo eziphakemeyo, ngizathumela abachithi bayihlasele,” kutsho uThixo.
Kapau ʻe kaka hake ʻa Papilone ki he ngaahi langi, pea kapau te ne ngaohi hono ngaahi potu mālohi ki ʻolunga,” ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE ʻalu atu meiate au kiate ia ʻae kau maumauʻi.
54 “Umsindo wokukhala uvela eBhabhiloni, umsindo wencithakalo enkulu ovela elizweni lamaKhaladiya.
ʻOku ongo mai ʻae longoaʻa ʻoe tangi mei Papilone, pea mo e fakaʻauha lahi mei he fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia:
55 UThixo uzayichitha iBhabhiloni; uzathulisa umsindo wayo wenhlokomo. Amagagasi ezitha azahlokoma njengamanzi amanengi; ukuvungama kwamazwi azo kuzazwakala.
Koeʻuhi kuo maumauʻi ʻe Sihova ʻa Papilone, pea fakaʻauha ʻae longoaʻa lahi ʻiate ia; ʻoku ʻuʻulu hono ngaahi peau ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi vai lahi, ko e longoaʻa ʻo honau leʻo ʻoku ongo:
56 Umchithi uzakuzahlasela iBhabhiloni; amabutho ayo azathunjwa, lamadandili awo azakwephuka. Ngoba uThixo unguNkulunkulu wempindiselo; uzaphindisela ngokugcweleyo.
Koeʻuhi kuo hoko ʻae maumau kiate ia, ʻio, ki Papilone, pea kuo lavaʻi ʻa hono kau tangata mālohi, kuo fesiʻi ʻenau kaufana kotoa pē: he ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua faʻa totongi, pea ko e moʻoni te ne totongi.
57 Ngizadakisa izikhulu lezihlakaniphi zayo, kanye lababusi bayo, lezinduna kanye lamabutho; bazalala kokuphela bangavuki futhi,” kutsho uThixo, obizo lakhe nguThixo uSomandla.
Pea te u fakakonaʻi hono houʻeiki, pea mo hono kau tangata poto, mo hono ngaahi ʻeiki, mo hono kau pule, pea mo hono kau tangata mālohi: pea te nau mohe ʻi he mohe taʻengata, pea ʻe ʻikai toe ʻā, ʻoku pehē ʻe he tuʻi, ʻaia ko hono huafa ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau.
58 UThixo uSomandla uthi: “Umduli oqatha weBhabhiloni uzabhidlizwa lamasango ayo aphakemeyo athungelwe ngomlilo; abantu bazidinisela ize, umsebenzi wezizwe ungamafutha amalangabi nje kuphela.”
ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau; “ʻE maumau ʻaupito ʻae ngaahi ʻā laulahi ʻo Papilone, pea ʻe tutu ʻaki ʻae afi hono ngaahi matapā māʻolunga; pea ʻe ngāue taʻeʻaonga ʻae kakai, pea ʻe feinga ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga koeʻuhi ko e afi.”
59 Leli yilizwi uJeremiya umphrofethi alinika induna yamabutho uSeraya indodana kaNeriya, indodana kaMahaseyiya, esesiya eBhabhiloni loZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ngomnyaka wesine wokubusa kwakhe.
Ko e lea naʻe lea ʻaki ʻe Selemaia, ko e palōfita kia Selaia ko e foha ʻo Nelia, ko e foha ʻo Māseia, ʻi heʻene ʻalu meia Setikia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki Papilone ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo ʻene pule. Pea ko e Selaia ni ko e ʻeiki angamalū ia.
60 UJeremiya wayelobe emqulwini ngomonakalo wonke owawuzakwehlela iBhabhiloni lakho konke okwakubhalwe ngeBhabhiloni.
Pea naʻe tohi ʻi he tohi ʻe Selemaia ʻae kovi kotoa pē ʻe hoko ki Papilone, ʻio, ʻae lea ni kotoa pē kuo tohi ki Papilone.
61 Wathi kuSeraya, “Lapho usufikile eBhabhiloni ubowafunda wonke amazwi la ngelizwi eliphakemeyo.
Pea pehē ʻe Selemaia kia Selaia, “ʻOka ke ka hoko ki Papilone, te ke mamata, pea lau ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē;
62 Ube ususithi, ‘Awu Thixo, wathi indawo le uzayichitha ukuze kungabi lamuntu kumbe inyamazana ezahlala kuyo; izaphundleka kuze kube nininini.’
Pea te ke toki lea ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE Sihova, kuo ke folofola ki he potu ni, ke tuʻusi ia, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nofo ai ha tokotaha, ha tangata pe ha manu, ka ʻe lala ia ʻo taʻengata.’
63 Lapho usuqedile ukubala umqulu lo, ubophele ilitshe kuwo uwuphosele kuYufrathe,
Pea ʻe hoko ia ʻo pehē, ʻoka ʻosi hoʻo lau ʻae tohi ni, ke ke noʻotaki ki ai ʻae maka, pea lī ia ki loto ʻIufaletesi.
64 ubususithi, ‘Izatshona kanje iBhabhiloni ingabe isavumbuluka ngenxa yomonakalo engizayehlisela wona. Labantu bayo bazakuwa.’” Amazwi kaJeremiya aphelela lapha.
Pea ke ke lea ʻo pehē, ‘ʻE ngalo pehē hifo ʻa Papilone, pea ʻe ʻikai toetuʻu ia mei he kovi ʻaia te u fakahoko ki ai: pea te nau fiu ai.’” Ko hono ngata ia ʻoe ngaahi lea ʻa Selemaia.
