Mugore regumi namaviri, mumwedzi wegumi nemiviri pazuva rokutanga, shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
2 Ndodana yomuntu, phakamisa isililo ngoFaro inkosi yeGibhithe, uthi kuye: Ufanana lebhongo lesilwane lezizwe, futhi wena ufanana lomgobho phakathi kwezinlwandle, waphutsha emifuleni yakho, wadunga amanzi ngenyawo zakho, wangcolisa imifula yazo.
“Mwanakomana womunhu, chemera Faro mambo weIjipiti uti kwaari: “‘Iwe wakafanana neshumba pakati pendudzi; wakaita sechikara mukati mamakungwa uchibvongodza-bvongodza mukati mehova dzako, uchibvongodza mvura netsoka dzako uye uchiita kuti hova dzive namatope.
3 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Ngakho ngizakwendlala imbule lami phezu kwakho ngexuku labantu abanengi, bakukhuphule ngembule lami.
“‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: “‘Neboka ravanhu vazhinji ndichakanda mambure angu pamusoro pako, uye vachakukweva mumumbure wangu.
4 Besengikutshiya emhlabathini, ngikujikijele egcekeni, ngenze zonke inyoni zamazulu zihlale phezu kwakho, ngisuthise izilo zawo wonke umhlaba ngawe.
Ndichakukanda panyika ndichakurasira pamhene. Ndichamharisa shiri dzose dzedenga pamusoro pako, uye zvikara zvose zvomunyika zvichagutswa newe.
5 Ngizabeka inyama yakho phezu kwezintaba, ngigcwalise izihotsha ngobude bakho.
Ndichayanika nyama yako pamakomo, ndigozadza mipata nezvitunha zvako.
6 Ngizathelela ilizwe ngokuntshaza kwegazi lakho kuze kube sezintabeni; lezifula zizagcwala ngawe.
Ndichadiridza nyika neropa rako rinenge richiyerera kusvikira kumakomo, uye nzizi dzichazadzwa nenyama yako.
7 Lalapho ngikucitsha ngizasibekela amazulu, ngenze inkanyezi zawo zibe mnyama; ngizasibekela ilanga ngeyezi, lenyanga kayiyikukhanyisa ngokukhanya kwayo.
Pandichakudzima, ndichafukidza matenga uye ndichasvibisa nyeredzi; ndichafukidza zuva mugore, uye mwedzi haungabudisi chiedza chawo.
8 Zonke izibane ezikhanyisayo emazulwini ngizazenza zibe mnyama phezu kwakho, ngibeke ubumnyama phezu kwelizwe lakho, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Zviedza zvose zvinopenya zvedenga ndichazvidzima pamusoro pako; ndichauyisa rima pamusoro penyika yako, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
9 Njalo ngizakhathaza inhliziyo zabantu abanengi, nxa ngizaletha incithakalo yakho phakathi kwezizwe emazweni ongawaziyo.
Ndichatambudza mwoyo yavanhu vazhinji, pandichauyisa kuparadzwa kwako pakati pendudzi, pakati penyika dzausina kumboziva.
10 Yebo, ngizakwenza abantu abanengi bamangale kakhulu ngawe, lamakhosi abo azahlasimuka umzimba kakhulu ngawe, lapho ngiphazimisa inkemba yami phambi kwabo; njalo bazathuthumela isikhathi sonke, ngulowo lalowo ngempilo yakhe, ngosuku lokuwa kwakho.
Ndichaita kuti marudzi mazhinji ashamisike pamusoro pako, uye madzimambo avo achadedera nokutya nokuda kwako, pandichavheyesa munondo wangu pamberi pavo. Pazuva rokuwa kwako mumwe nomumwe wavo achadedera nguva dzose, nokuda kwoupenyu hwake.
11 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Inkemba yenkosi yeBhabhiloni izakwehlela.
“‘Nokuti zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: “‘Munondo wamambo weBhabhironi uchauya kuzokurwisa.
12 Ngezinkemba zamaqhawe ngizakwenza ixuku lakho liwe, abesabekayo bezizwe, bonke; njalo azachitha ukuziphakamisa kweGibhithe, lexuku layo lonke lizabhujiswa.
Ndichaita kuti vanhu vako vazhinji vawe nokuda kweminondo yavane simba, vanhu vakaipisisa pandudzi dzose. Vachaparadza kuzvikudza kweIjipiti, uye vanhu vayo vazhinji vachakundwa.
13 Njalo ngizabhubhisa zonke izinyamazana zayo ngasemanzini amanengi; lonyawo lomuntu kalusayikuwadunga, lamasondo ezinyamazana kawayikuwadunga.
Ndichaparadza mombe dzayo dzose dziri panhivi dzemvura zhinji, hakuchazova norutsoka rwomunhu ruchaibvongodza, kana namahwanda emombe achaibvongodza.
14 Besengisenza amanzi abo atshone, ngenze imifula yabo igeleze njengamafutha, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Ipapo ndichaita kuti mvura yavo igadzikane, uye ndichaita kuti hova dzayo dziyerere samafuta, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
15 Mhla ngizakwenza ilizwe leGibhithe libe yincithakalo, lelizwe liphundlwe ukugcwala kwalo, lapho ngitshaya bonke abahlala kilo, khona bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
Pandichaita Ijipiti kuti ive dongo uye pandichabvisa zvose zviri mairi, pandichauraya vose vanogaramo, ipapo vachaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.’
16 Lesi yisililiselo abazasililisela; amadodakazi ezizwe azasililisela; bazasililisela, ngeGibhithe, langexuku layo lonke, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
“Aya ndiwo mashoko okuchema avachaiimbira. Vanasikana vendudzi vachaimba; nokuda kweIjipiti navanhu vayo vose vazhinji vachaimba, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.”
17 Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wetshumi lambili, ngolwetshumi lanhlanu lwenyanga, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi lisithi:
Mugore regumi namaviri, pazuva regumi namashanu romwedzi, shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
18 Ndodana yomuntu, khala ngenxa yexuku leGibhithe, ubehlisele, yona lamadodakazi ezizwe ezidumileyo, ezindaweni ezingaphansi zomhlaba, kanye labo abehlela emgodini.
“Mwanakomana womunhu, ungudza nokuda kwavanhu vazhinji veIjipiti uye uvawisire pasi zvose iyo nyika navanasikana vendudzi dzine simba, pamwe chete navaya vanoburukira kugomba.
19 Wedlula bani ngokuthandeka? Yehla, ulaliswe labangasokanga.
Uti kwavari, ‘Ko, imi munonyanya kudikanwa kupfuura vamwe here? Burukai munoradzikwa pakati pavasina kudzingiswa.’
20 Bazawela phakathi kwababulewe ngenkemba. Inikelwe enkembeni; ihuduleni kanye lamaxuku ayo wonke.
Vachava pakati pavakaurayiwa nomunondo. Munondo wavhomorwa; ngaakweverwe kunze pamwe chete navanhu vake vazhinji.
21 Abalamandla bamaqhawe bazakhuluma laye bephakathi kwesihogo, kanye labayisizayo; behlele phansi, balele abangasokanga, babulewe ngenkemba. (Sheol h7585)
Vatungamiri vane simba vari mukati meguva, vachati pamusoro peIjipiti navabatsiri vayo, ‘Vaburukira kuno uye vavete pamwe chete navasina kudzingiswa, navaya vakaurayiwa nomunondo.’ (Sheol h7585)
22 IAsiriya ilapho lexuku layo lonke; amangcwaba ayo asenhlangothini zayo zonke, bonke bebulewe, bewile ngenkemba.
“Asiria iriko nehondo yayo yose; yakakomberedzwa namakuva avakaurayiwa vayo vose, vose vakaurayiwa nomunondo.
23 Omangcwaba ayo enziwe emaceleni egodi, lexuku layo lihanqe ingcwaba layo, bonke bebulewe, bewile ngenkemba, ababenika isesabiso elizweni labaphilayo.
Makuva ayo ari pasi pasi mugomba uye hondo yayo ivete yakakomberedza rinda rayo. Vose vakanga vaparadzira kutya munyika yavapenyu vakaurayiwa vakafa nomunondo.
24 Ikhona lapho iElamu lexuku layo lonke inhlangothi zonke zengcwaba layo, bonke bebulewe, abawileyo ngenkemba, abehle bengasokanga baya ezindaweni ezingaphansi zomhlaba, abanika isethuso sabo elizweni labaphilayo; kanti bethwele ihlazo labo kanye labo abehlela egodini.
“Eramu iriko, pamwe chete navanhu vayo vazhinji vose vakapoteredza rinda rayo. Vose vakaurayiwa, vakafa nomunondo. Vose vakanga vatyisidzira vamwe munyika yavapenyu vakaburukira panyika pasi vasina kudzingiswa. Vakatakura nyadzi dzavo navaya vanoburukira kugomba.
25 Bayenzele umbheda phakathi kwababuleweyo kanye lexuku layo lonke; amangcwaba ayo ayihanqile; bonke bengasokanga, bebulewe ngenkemba; ngoba isethuso sabo sanikelwa elizweni labaphilayo, kanti bathwala ihlazo labo kanye labo abehlela egodini; ibekwa phakathi kwababuleweyo.
Yakawaridzirwa mubhedha pakati pavakaurayiwa, nevanhu vayo vazhinji vakakomberedza rinda rayo. Vose havana kudzingiswa, vakaurayiwa nomunondo. Nemhaka yokuti kutyisidzira kwavo kwakanga kwapararira munyika yavapenyu, vanotakura nyadzi dzavo navaya vanoburukira kugomba, vakaradzikwa pakati pavakaurayiwa.
26 Kukhona lapho iMesheki leThubhali, kanye lexuku layo lonke; amangcwaba ayo ayihanqile; bonke bengasokanga, bebulewe ngenkemba; ngoba banikile isethuso sabo elizweni labaphilayo.
“Mesheki neTubhari dziripo, navanhu vadzo vazhinji vakakomba marinda adzo. Vose havana kudzingiswa, vakaurayiwa nomunondo nokuti vakatyisidzira vanhu munyika yavapenyu.
27 Kodwa kabayikulala lamaqhawe awileyo angawabangasokanga, ehlela esihogweni lezikhali zawo zempi, abeka inkemba zawo ngaphansi kwamakhanda awo; kodwa ububi bawo buzakuba phezu kwamathambo awo; ngoba isethuso samaqhawe sasiselizweni labaphilayo. (Sheol h7585)
Ko, havana kuvata navamwe varwi vasina kudzingiswa here, ivo vakafa, vakaburukira muguva vane zvombo zvavo zvehondo, uye minondo yavo yakaiswa pasi pemisoro yavo? Kurangwa nokuda kwezvivi zvavo kuri pamusoro pamapfupa avo, kunyange kutyisidzira kwavanhu ava kwakanga kwapararira munyika yavapenyu. (Sheol h7585)
28 Wena-ke uzakwephulwa phakathi kwabangasokanga, ulale lababulewe ngenkemba.
“Newewo, iwe Faro, uchavhunwa uye uchavata pakati pavasina kudzingiswa.
29 Kukhona lapho iEdoma, amakhosi ayo lazo zonke iziphathamandla zayo, abalaliswe lababulewe ngenkemba, kanye lamandla abo; bona bazalala labangasokanga, labehlela egodini.
“Edhomu iriko namadzimambo ayo namachinda ayo ose; kunyange ane simba, vakaradzikwa navaya vakaurayiwa nomunondo. Vakavata navasina kudzingiswa, navaya vanoburukira kugomba.
30 Kukhona lapho iziphathamandla zenyakatho, zonke zazo, lawo wonke amaSidoni, asehle lababuleweyo; kusesabiso sabo balenhloni ngenxa yobuqhawe bawo; njalo balele bengasokanga kanye lababuleweyo ngenkemba, bethwele ihlazo labo kanye labo abehlela egodini.
“Machinda ose okumusoro navaSidhoni variko; vakadzika navakaurayiwa mukunyadziswa kunyange simba ravo raityisa. Vakavata vasina kudzingiswa pamwe chete navakaurayiwa nomunondo vakatakura kunyadziswa kwavo pamwe chete navaya vanoburukira kugomba.
31 UFaro uzababona, aduduzeke ngenxa yexuku lakhe lonke, uFaro lebutho lakhe lonke, ababulewe ngenkemba, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
“Faro, iye nehondo yake, achavaona agonyaradzwa nokuda kwavanhu vake vazhinji vakaurayiwa nomunondo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
32 Ngoba ngibekile isethuso sami elizweni labaphilayo; ngakho uzalaliswa phakathi kwabangasokanga kanye lababulewe ngenkemba, uFaro lexuku lakhe lonke, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
Kunyange ndakamurega achityisidzira vamwe munyika yavapenyu, Faro navanhu vake vazhinji vacharadzikwa pakati pavasina kudzingiswa, navaya vakaurayiwa nomunondo, ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.”
