2 “Mana esangweni lendlu kaThixo umemezele ilizwi leli ukhonapho uthi: ‘Zwanini ilizwi likaThixo, lonke lina bantu bakoJuda abangena ngala amasango ukuzakhonza uThixo.
Ra Anumzamofo mono nompima unefraza kafante ome oti'nenka, amanage hunka vahera zamasamio. Juda vahe'ma ama kafanteti'ma ufreta Ra Anumzamofoma mono'ma hunentaza vahe'mota Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hianki antahiho!
3 UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Lungisani izindlela zenu lezenzo zenu, ukuze ngilivumele ukuba lihlale kule indawo.
Hagi Monafi sondia vahe'mokizmi Ra Anumzama, Israeli vahe'mokizmi Anumzamo'a amanage huno hu'ne. Tamagrama havi avu'ava zama nehaza zama netreta mani fatgoma hanage'na, Nagra tamatresanugeta mopatamifina manigahaze.
4 Lingathembi amazwi akhohlisayo lithi, “Leli lithempeli likaThixo, ithempeli likaThixo, ithempeli likaThixo!”
Vahemo'za rezamatga hu'za, Ra Anumzamofo mono nona ama me'ne. Ra Anumzamofo mono nona ama me'ne, Ra Anumzamofo mono nona ama me'neankita knare huta manigahune hu'za rezmatagama hanaza nanekea antahi ozamiho.
5 Lingalungisa izindlela zenu lezenzo zenu sibili liphathane ngokulunga,
Hagi tamagra havi antahintahi zane havi avu'avazanena netreta, tamagra'a fatgo avu'ava'za ohunte ahunte nehuta,
6 nxa lingancindezeli owezizweni, izintandane loba umfelokazi njalo lingachithi gazi elingelacala kule indawo, njalo nxa lingalandeli abanye onkulunkulu okuzalilimaza,
ru vahe'ma tamagrane enemaniza vahe'ene, megusa mofavre naga'ene, kento a'neraminena zamazeri haviza osiho. Ana nehuta ke'zami omane vahera zamahe nofrita, havi anumzantera monora huonteho. Ana'ma hanazana tamagra'a tamazeri haviza hugahaze.
7 ngizalivumela ukuba lihlale kule indawo, elizweni engalinika okhokho benu ukuba libe ngelabo kuze kube nini lanini.
Hagi tamagrama Nagri kema antahita amage'ma antesage'na, Nagra tamatresanugeta tamagehe'ima eri santihareta manivava hugahazema hu'na zami'noa mopafina manigahaze.
8 Kodwa khangelani, lina lithemba amazwi akhohlisayo angasizi lutho.
Hianagi keho! Tamagra havige kere tamentintia nehazankino, ana nanekemo'a tamaza osugahie.
9 Kambe lizantshontsha njalo libulale, lifebe, lifunge amanga, litshisele uBhali impepha njalo lilandele abanye onkulunkulu elingakaze libazi,
Hagi tamagra kumazafa neseta, vahera zamahe nefrita, monko'zana nehuta, havige nehuta, Bali havi anumzante mnanentake zana kre mna nevuta keta antahita osu'naza anumzantami amagera nenteta ete,
10 beselisizakuma phambi kwami kuyonale indlu, eleBizo lami, lithi, “Sivikelekile,” livikeleka ukuba lenze zonke lezizinto ezenyanyekayo na?
Nagri nagima erisga hugahazema hu'noa nompi eta, hago tagu vazigeta knare huta mani'none huta nehuta ete vuta agoterfa avu'ava zana ome nehaze.
11 Indlu le, eleBizo lami, seyaba lubhalu lwabaphangi na? Kodwa kade ngikhangele! kutsho uThixo.
Hagi tamagrama antahi'zana Nagri nagima eme erisgama nehaza mono nona, kumzafa vahe'mo'za eme frakisaza havega me'ne huta nehazafi? Tamage! Ama anampima nehaza avu'ava zana hago ke'noe huno Ra Anumzamo'a ama nanekea hu'ne.
12 Hambani khathesi endaweni yami eShilo lapho engenza khona kuqala indawo yokuhlala iBizo lami, libone engakwenza kuyo ngenxa yobubi babantu bami bako-Israyeli.
Hagi Nagri nagima me'nesige'za mono hunantegahazema hu'na huhamparuge'za seli mono noma kinaza kumate Silo vuta, nagri naga'ma Israeli vahe'mo'zama kumi'ma hazage'na ana kuma'ma eri havizama hu'noa zana ome keho.
13 UThixo uthi, kwathi lapho lisenza lezizinto, mina ngakhuluma lani futhifuthi, kodwa kalingilalelanga, ngalibiza, kalaze lasabela.
Hianagi tamagranena ana havi avu'ava zana huta nevazage'na, Nagra ana zankura kea huvava hu'na vuanagi keni'a ontahize. Nagra kezatuanagi nagri kerera izo osu'naze.
14 Ngakho-ke, lokho engakwenza eShilo khathesi ngizakwenza kule indlu eleBizo lami, ithempeli elilithembileyo, indawo engalinika yona lina kanye labokhokho benu.
E'ina hu'negu Silo kuma'ma eri havizama hu'noaza hu'na, Nagri nagima me'nesige'za mono'ma hunanteho hugeno me'negeta, tazahu zana erigahunema huta muha'ma nehaza mono nona eri haviza nehu'na, tamagehe'ima zami'noa mopanena eri haviza hugahue.
15 Ngizalixotsha phambi kwami, njengalokho engakwenza abafowenu bonke, abantu bako-Efrayimi.’
Hagi Nagri navugama mani'naretira Nagra tamavre atresugeta tamafuhe'za Israeli naga'mo'zama hu'nazaza huta vugahaze.
16 Ngakho abantu laba ungabakhulekeli loba ubakhulumele kumbe ubenzele isicelo; ungangincengi ngoba angiyikukulalela.
Hagi Jeremaiaga, ama vahe'ma zamazama hanugura Nagritega zavi krafa nehunka nunamuna hunka zamaza huo hunka nantahi onko. Na'ankure kagri nunamunkea ontahigahue huno hu'ne.
17 Abakwenzayo emadolobheni akoJuda lasemigwaqweni yaseJerusalema kawukuboni na?
Hagi kagra Juda mopafima me'nea kumatamimpine, Jerusalemi kumapima me'nea ne'onse kampima nehaza havi avu'ava zana nonkano?
18 Abantwana batheza inkuni, oyise babasa imililo, labesifazane baxova inhlama benzele iNdlovukazi yaseZulwini isinkwa. Bathelela abanye onkulunkulu iminikelo yokunathwayo ukuba bangithukuthelise.
Hagi mofavre naga'mo'za teve hare'za azage'za zamafahe'za teve erinte fatgo nehazage'za, a'ne naga'mo'za flauateti keki tro hazage'za, mago a' havi anumzanku'ma Monafi Kuiniema nehaza a'tega ofa hunte'za nehaze. Ana nehu'za mago'a havi anumzaramintega wainima tagitre ofanena nehu'za Nagrira nazeri narimpa nehaze.
19 Kodwa yimi abangithukuthelisayo na? kutsho uThixo. Kabazilimazi bona ngokwabo na, okulihlazo kubo?
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Ana avu'ava zama nehazana Nagrira nazeri havizana nosazanki, zamagra'a zamazeri haviza nehazanki'za zamagazegu hugahaze.
20 ‘Ngakho uThixo Wobukhosi uthi: Ukuthukuthela kwami lolaka lwami kuzakwehliselwa kule indawo, phezu kwabantu lasezinyamazaneni, phezu kwezihlahla zeganga laphezu kwezithelo zomhlabathi; njalo kuzakutsha kungacitsheki.
E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne. Nagri narimpa ahe'zamo'a tusiza huno teve rukru nehianki'na, ama kumapima mani'naza vahete'ene zagagafare'ene zafaraminte'ene hozafi ne'zaraminte'enena ana narimpa ahe'zana eri kaha hutresugeno, tevegna huno akrukru huno neresigeno mago vahe'mo'a rusura osugahie.
21 UThixo uSomandla, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uthi: Qhubekani, fakani iminikelo yenu yokutshiswa kweminye imihlatshelo yenu lidle inyama lina ngokwenu!
Hagi Monafi sondia vahe'mokizmi Ra Anumzama Israeli nagamokizmi Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne. Tamagrama tevefima kre fananehu ofama hunantenaku'ma nehaza ame'a, erinteta ruga'a ofama hunanteku'ma haza zantamine tamagra'a neho.
22 Ngoba ekukhupheni kwami okhokho benu eGibhithe ngikhuluma labo, angizange ngibanike imilayo nje kuphela ngeminikelo yokutshiswa lemihlatshelo,
Hagi Nagrama tamagehe'ima zamavare'na Isipitima atirami'na e'noana, tevefima kre fananehu ofane ruga'a ofanena ofa hunanteho hu'na Nagra huozamante'noe.
23 kodwa ngabanika umlayo lo othi: Ngilalelani, njalo ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wenu lina libe ngabantu bami. Hambani ngezindlela zonke engililaye zona, ukuze kulilungele.
Hianagi Nagra amanage hu'na zamasami'noe. Nagri ke antahita amagenentenke'na, Nagra tamagri Anumza manisugeta, tamagra Nagri vahe manigahaze hu'na hu'noe. Maka zama hihoma hu'na hanua zama antahita amage'ma antesanuta, maka'zama hanaza zamo'a knare'zanke hugahie.
24 Kodwa kabazange balalele kumbe banake; esikhundleni salokho, bona balandela inkani yentando yezinhliziyo zabo ezimbi. Baya emuva hatshi phambili.

28 Ngakho batshele uthi, ‘Lesi yisizwe esingalalelanga uThixo uNkulunkulu waso kumbe sivume ukuqondiswa. Iqiniso selifile; kalisekho ezindebeni zabo.
Ana'ma hanagenka amanage hunka zamasamio. Ama vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzana Anumzazmimofo nanekea amagera nonte'za, Anumzamo'a zamavumarora anteno zamazeri fatgoma hunaku'ma hiazana amagera onte'naze. Ana nehu'za tamage avu'avazamo'a zamagripintira fanane nehigeza ana zankura nanekea nosaze.
29 Gelani inwele zenu lizilahlele khatshana; lenze isililo emiqolweni elugwadule, ngoba uThixo usesalile wasidela isizukulwane lesi esingaphanasi kolaka lwakhe.’”
