< UJeremiya 31 >

1 Ngalesosikhathi, itsho iNkosi, ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wensapho zonke zakoIsrayeli; bona-ke bazakuba ngabantu bami.
“Yeroo sanatti” jedha Waaqayyo, “Ani balbala Israaʼel hundaaf Waaqa nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo ni taʼu.”
2 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Abantu babaseleyo benkemba bathola umusa enkangala; ngitsho uIsrayeli, lapho ngisiyamphumuza.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Namoonni goraadee irraa hafan gammoojjii keessatti fudhatama ni argatu; anis Israaʼeliif boqonnaa kennuuf nan dhufa.”
3 INkosi yabonakala kimi ikhatshana isithi: Yebo, ngikuthandile ngothando olulaphakade, ngakho-ke ngikudonsile ngothandolomusa.
Waaqayyo fagoodhaa natti mulʼatee akkana jedhe: “Ani jaalala bara baraatiin si jaalladheera; kanaafuu ani arjummaa kootiin ofitti si harkiseera.
4 Ngizabuya ngikwakhe, wakheke, wena ntombi emsulwa yakoIsrayeli; uzabuya uvunuliswe ngezigujana zakho, uphume phakathi kokugida kwabathokozayo.
Yaa Israaʼel durba qulqullittii, ani amma illee sin ijaara; atis deebitee ni ijaaramta. Ati amma illee dibbee kee fudhattee warra gammadan wajjin shuubbisuuf gad baata.
5 Uzabuya uhlanyele izivini phezu kwezintaba zeSamariya; abahlanyeli bazahlanyela, badle izithelo.
Ati amma illee gaarran Samaariyaa irratti wayinii ni dhaabbatta; qotee bulaanis wayinii dhaabbatee ija isaa ni nyaata.
6 Ngoba kuzakuba khona usuku abazamemeza ngalo abalindi entabeni yakoEfrayimi besithi: Sukumani, senyuke siye eZiyoni, eNkosini uNkulunkulu wethu.
Guyyaa itti eegdonni gaarran Efreem irra dhaabatanii, ‘Kottaa gara Xiyoonitti, gara Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatti ol baanaa’ jedhanii iyyan tokko ni dhufa.”
7 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi: Mhlabeleleni uJakobe ngentokozo, limemezele phakathi kwenhloko yezizwe; zwakalisani, dumisani, lithi: Nkosi, sindisa abantu bakho, insali yakoIsrayeli.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yaaqoobiif gammachuudhaan faarfadhaa; hangafa sabootaatiif ililchaa. Galata keessan dhageessisaatii, ‘Yaa Waaqayyo saba kee, hambaa Israaʼel baraari’ jedhaa.
8 Khangelani, ngizabaletha bevela elizweni lenyakatho, ngibabuthe emaceleni omhlaba; phakathi kwabo kukhona iziphofu labaqhulayo, abesifazana abakhulelweyo lababelethayo ndawonye; bazabuya lapha belibandla elikhulu.
Kunoo, ani biyya kaabaatii isaan nan fida; handaara lafaatiis walitti isaan nan qaba. Isaan keessattis jaamotaa fi naafota, haadhota ulfaatii fi dubartoota ciniinsifatantu argama; saba guddaa taʼaniis ni deebiʼu.
9 Bazabuya belokukhala, ngizabakhokhela belokuncenga; ngizabahambisa emifuleni yamanzi ngendlela eqondileyo, abangayikukhubeka kuyo; ngoba nginguyise kaIsrayeli, loEfrayimi ulizibulo lami.
Isaanis booʼaa dhufu; yeroo ani deebisee isaan fidutti Waaqa kadhatu. Waan ani abbaa Israaʼel taʼee fi Efreem immoo ilma koo hangafa taʼeef, ani qarqara burqaa bishaanii irra, daandii qajeelaa isaan achi irratti hin gufanne irra isaan nan qajeelcha.
10 Zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, lina zizwe, lilimemeze ezihlengeni ezikhatshana, lithi: Yena owachitha uIsrayeli uzambutha, amgcine, njengomelusi umhlambi wakhe.
“Yaa saboota, dubbii Waaqayyo dhagaʼaa; isin, ‘Inni Israaʼelin bittinneesse sun walitti isaan qabee akkuma tiksee tokkootti bushaayee isaa ni tiksa’ jedhaatii biyyoota qarqara galaanaa kanneen fagoo jiranitti labsaa.
11 Ngoba iNkosi imhlengile uJakobe, yamhlawulela emsusa esandleni solamandla kulaye.
Waaqayyo Yaaqoobin fureera, warra isa caalaa jajjaboo taʼan harkaas isa baaseeraatii.
12 Ngakho bazakuza bahlabelele ekuphakameni kweZiyoni, bagelezele kokuhle kweNkosi, ngamabele, langewayini elitsha, langamafutha, langamazinyane ezimvu, lenkomo; lomphefumulo wabo ube njengesivande esithelelweyo, kabasayikubuya babe losizi.
Isaan ni dhufanii gaarran Xiyoon irrattis gammadanii ililchu; isaan arjummaa Waaqayyootti jechuunis midhaanitti, daadhii wayinii haaraa fi zayitiitti, ilmoolee bushaayeettii fi jabbootaattis ni gammadu. Jireenyi isaanii akkuma biqiltuu bishaan quufee taʼa; isaan siʼachi hin gaddan.
13 Khona intombi izathokoza ekugideni, lamajaha labadala kanyekanye; ngoba ngizaphendula ukulila kwabo kube yintokozo, ngibaduduze, ngibathokozise, bangabi losizi.
Ergasiis shamarran ni shuubbisu; ni gammadu; dargaggoonnii fi maanguddoonni akkasuma ni gammadu. Ani booʼicha isaanii gammachuutti nan geeddara; qooda gaddaa jajjabinaa fi gammachuu nan kennaaf.
14 Njalo ngizasuthisa umphefumulo wabapristi ngamanono, labantu bami bazasuthiswa ngokuhle kwami, itsho iNkosi.
Ani arjummaadhaan luboota nan quubsa; sabni koos badhaadhummaa kootiin ni guutama,” jedha Waaqayyo.
15 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ilizwi lezwakala eRama, ukulila, ukukhala inyembezi okubuhlungu kakhulu; uRasheli ekhalela abantwana bakhe, esala ukududuzwa ngabantwana bakhe, ngoba bengasekho.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Sagaleen booʼichaatii fi wawwaannaa guddaan tokko Raamaa keessaa dhagaʼame; sababii isaan hin jirreef, Raahel ijoollee isheetiif booʼaa jirti; jajjabaachuus ni didde.”
16 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Bamba ilizwi lakho ekukhaleni, lamehlo akho ezinyembezini; ngoba kulomvuzo womsebenzi wakho, itsho iNkosi, ngoba bazabuya bevela elizweni lesitha.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Sagalee kee booʼicha irraa, ija kee immoo imimmaan irraa eeggadhu; hojiin kee ni badhaafamaatii” jedha Waaqayyo. “Isaan biyya diinaatii ni deebiʼu.
17 Kukhona-ke ithemba enzalweni yakho, itsho iNkosi; ngoba abantwana bakho bazabuyela emngceleni wakibo.
Kanaafuu galgalli kee abdii qaba” jedha Waaqayyo. Ijoolleen kee biyya ofii isaaniitti ni deebiʼu.
18 Ngizwile lokuzwa uEfrayimi ezililelaesithi: Ungilayile, njalo ngalaywa njengethole elingathambanga; ngiphenduka, njalo ngizaphendula; ngoba uyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wami.
“Ani dhugumaan Efreemii akkana jedhee booʼu dhagaʼeera: ‘Ati akkuma dibicha hin leenjifamin tokkootti na adabdeerta; anis adabameera. Ati sababii Waaqayyo Waaqa koo taateef, na deebisi; anis nan deebiʼa.
19 Isibili emva kokuphenduka kwami, ngazisola, lemva kokufundiswa kwami ngatshaya phezu kwethangazi lami; ngaba lenhloni, njalo ngayangeka, ngoba ngathwala ihlazo lobutsha bami.
Ani ergan duubatti deebiʼee booddee, qalbii jijjiirradheera; ani ergan hubadhee booddee, qoma koo nan dhaʼe. Ani sababiin salphina dargaggummaa koo baadhuuf, nan qaanaʼe; gad nan deebiʼes.’
20 UEfrayimi uyindodana yami eligugu yini, ungumntwana wami othokozisayo yini? Ngoba selokhu ngakhuluma ngimelene laye, ngisamkhumbula ngoqotho; ngenxa yalokho imibilini yami iyakhala ngaye; isibili ngizakuba lesihawu kuye, kutsho iNkosi.
Efreem ilma koo jaallatamaa, mucaa ani itti gammadu mitii? Ani yeroo baayʼee yoon isaan morme iyyuu amma illee isa nan yaadadha. Kanaafuu garaan koo isaaf ni yaada; garaas nan laafaaf” jedha Waaqayyo.
21 Zibekele izitshengiso zendlela, uzimisele izinsika zeziqondiso, ubeke inhliziyo yakho kumgwaqo omkhulu, indlela owahamba ngayo; phenduka, ntombi emsulwa yakoIsrayeli, uphendukele kule imizi yakini.
“Ati mallattoo daandii dhaabbadhu; waan karaa nama argisiisu illee kaaʼadhu. Karaa irra deemtu, daandii guddaa sana hubadhu. Yaa Israaʼel durba qulqullittii deebiʼi; magaalaawwan keetti deebiʼi.
22 Koze kube nini uzulazula, ndodakazi ehlehlela nyovane? Ngoba iNkosi idale into entsha emhlabeni: Owesifazana uzahanqa indoda.
Yaa intala hin amanamne, ati hamma yoomiitti asii fi achi joorta? Waaqayyo waan haaraa tokko lafa irratti ni uuma; dubartiin dhiira marsiti.”
23 Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Bazabuya batsho lelilizwi elizweni lakoJuda lemizini yakho, lapho ngibuyisela ukuthunjwa kwabo: Kwangathi iNkosi ingakubusisa, khaya lokulunga, ntaba yobungcwele.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: “Yeroo ani boojiʼamtoota isaanii deebisutti namoonni biyya Yihuudaatii fi magaalaawwan ishee keessa jiraatan amma illee yeroo tokko, ‘Yaa iddoo murtiin qajeelaan jiraatu, yaa tulluu qulqulluu, Waaqayyo si haa eebbisu’ jedhanii dubbatu.
24 Njalo kuzahlala kulo uJuda layo yonke imizi yakhe ndawonye, abalimi labahamba lemihlambi.
Biyya Yihuudaatii fi magaalaawwan isaa hunda keessa namoonni jechuunis qonnaan bultoonnii fi warri bushaayee fudhatanii asii fi achi nanaannaʼan tokkummaadhaan achi keessa jiraatu.
25 Ngoba ngisuthise umphefumulo okhatheleyo, ngigcwalise wonke umphefumulo ophela amandla.
Ani warra dadhaban nan jajjabeessa; warra gaggaban illee nan bayyanachiisa.”
26 Ngasengiphaphama, ngabona; lobuthongo bami babumnandi kimi.
Kana irratti ani dammaqee asii fi achi nan ilaale. Hirribni koos natti miʼaawee ture.
27 Khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho ngizahlanyela indlu kaIsrayeli lendlu kaJuda ngenhlanyelo yabantu lenhlanyelo yenyamazana.
“Barri ani itti mana Israaʼelii fi mana Yihuudaa sanyii namaatii fi sanyii horiitiin guutu tokko ni dhufa” jedha Waaqayyo.
28 Kuzakuthi-ke njengalokho ngibalindile ukuthi ngisiphune lokuthi ngidilize lokuthi ngichithe lokuthi ngibhubhise lokuthi ngenze okubi, ngokunjalo ngizabalinda ukuze ngakhe ngihlanyele, itsho iNkosi.
“Ani akkuman isaan buqqisuu fi diiguuf, isaan garagalchuuf, isaan barbadeessuu fi badiisa isaanitti fiduuf isaan ilaale sana akkasuma immoo isaan ijaaruu fi isaan dhaabuuf gara isaanii nan ilaala” jedha Waaqayyo.
29 Ngalezonsuku kabasayikuthi: Oyise badlile izithelo zevini ezimunyu, amazinyo abantwana asetshelela.
“Bara sana keessa namoonni lammata, “‘Abbootiin isaanii ija wayinii dhangaggaaʼaa nyaannaan ilkaan ijoollee hadoode’ hin jedhan.
30 Kodwa ngulowo lalowo uzafela ububi bakhe; wonke umuntu odla izithelo zevini ezimunyu, amazinyo akhe azatshelela.
Qooda kanaa tokkoon tokkoon namaa cubbuu ofii isaatiin duʼa; nama ija wayinii dhangaggaaʼaa nyaatu kam iyyuu ilkaanuma isaatu hadooda.
31 Khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho ngizakwenza isivumelwano esitsha lendlu kaIsrayeli lendlu kaJuda;
“Yeroon ani itti mana Israaʼel wajjin, mana Yihuudaa wajjinis kakuu haaraa galu ni dhufa,” jedha Waaqayyo.
32 kungeyisikho njengesivumelwano engasenza laboyise mhla ngibamba isandla sabo ukubakhupha elizweni leGibhithe, osivumelwano sami bona abasephulayo, lanxa mina ngangingumyeni wabo, itsho iNkosi.
“Kakuun kunis kakuu ani, yeroo biyya Gibxiitii isaan baasuuf jedhee harka isaanii qabe sana abbootii isaanii wajjin gale, kakuu koo kan utuma ani dhirsa isaanii taʼee jiruu isaan cabsan sanaan tokko miti” jedha Waaqayyo.
33 Kodwa yilesi isivumelwano engizasenza lendlu kaIsrayeli emva kwalezonsuku, itsho iNkosi: Ngizafaka umlayo wami emibilini yabo, ngiwubhale enhliziyweni yabo, ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo, labo babe ngabantu bami.
“Kakuun ani yeroo sana booddee mana Israaʼel wajjin galu kanaa dha” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani seera koo qalbii isaanii keessa nan kaaʼa; garaa isaanii keessattis nan barreessa. Ani Waaqa isaanii nan taʼa; isaanis saba koo taʼu.
34 Kabasayikufundisa-ke, ngulowo lalowo umakhelwane wakhe, langulowo lalowo umfowabo, esithi: Yazi iNkosi; ngoba bonke bazangazi, kusukela komncinyane wabo kuze kufike komkhulu wabo, itsho iNkosi; ngoba ngizathethelela isiphambeko sabo, lesono sabo kangisayikusikhumbula.
Sababii hundi isaanii, xinnaa hamma guddaatti na beekaniif, siʼachi namni kam iyyuu, ‘Waaqayyoon beeki’ jedhee ollaa isaa yookaan obboleessa isaa hin barsiisu” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani yakka isaanii nan dhiisaaf; cubbuu isaaniis siʼachi hin yaadadhu.”
35 Itsho njalo iNkosi, enika ilanga libe yikukhanya emini, izimiso zenyanga lezezinkanyezi zibe yikukhanya ebusuku, enyakazisa ulwandle ukuze amagagasi alo ahlokome; iNkosi yamabandla libizo layo.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; inni akka isheen guyyaan ibsituuf aduu ramadu, inni akka isaan halkaniin ibsaniif, jiʼaa fi urjiiwwan ajaju, inni akka dambaliin isaa huursuuf galaana raasu sun maqaan isaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu dha:
36 Uba lezozimiso zingasuka phambi kwami, itsho iNkosi, inzalo yakoIsrayeli layo izaphela ekubeni yisizwe phambi kwami zonke insuku.
“Yoo seerri kun fuula koo duraa bade qofa, sanyiin Israaʼel, fuula koo duratti bara baraan saba taʼuun isaa hafa” jedha Waaqayyo.
37 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Uba engalinganiswa amazulu phezulu, zihlolwe izisekelo zomhlaba phansi, lami ngizayala yonke inzalo yakoIsrayeli ngenxa yakho konke abakwenzileyo, itsho iNkosi.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yoo samiin gubbaa safaramuu dandaʼee fi hundeen lafaa kan gadii qoratamee argamuu dandaʼe qofa ani sanyii Israaʼel hunda sababii waan isaan hojjetan hundaatiif nan gata” jedha Waaqayyo.
38 Khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho umuzi uzakwakhelwa iNkosi, kusukela emphotshongweni kaHananeli kuze kufike esangweni leNgonsi.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Barri itti magaalaan kun gamoo Hanaaniʼeeliitii jalqabee hamma Karra Goleetti deebiʼee naaf ijaaramu tokko ni dhufa.
39 Lentambo yokulinganisa isezaphuma maqondana layo kuze kube soqaqeni lweGarebi, iphendukele ngaseGowa.
Funyoon safaraas achii kaʼee gara tulluu Gaareebitti qajeelee gara Goʼaatti diriirfama.
40 Lesihotsha sonke sezidumbu lesomlotha, lawo wonke amasimu kuze kufike esifuleni seKidroni, kuze kufike engonsini yeSango lamabhiza ngempumalanga, kuzakuba yibungcwele beNkosi. Kakuyikusitshunwa kakusayikudilizwa kuze kube nininini.
Sululli reeffii fi daaraan itti gatamu guutuun, karaa baʼaas sulula Qeedroon qabatee dirreen hamma Karra Fardaatti jiru hundi Waaqayyoof ni qulqulleeffama. Magaalaan kun gonkumaa lammaffaa hin buqqifamtu yookaan hin diigamtu.”
