UJeremiya 36
1 Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakhimi, indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, lelilizwi lafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini, lisithi:
Nʼafọ anọ nke ọchịchị Jehoiakim nwa Josaya bụ eze Juda, okwu Onyenwe anyị ndị a ruru Jeremaya ntị,
2 Zithathele umqulu wogwalo, ubhale kiwo wonke amazwi engiwakhulume kuwe ngoIsrayeli langoJuda langazo zonke izizwe, kusukela ngosuku lokukhuluma kwami kuwe, kusukela ensukwini zikaJosiya, kuze kube lamuhla.
“Were akwụkwọ detuo okwu ahụ niile m gwarala gị banyere Izrel, na Juda, na banyere ndị mba ọzọ dị iche iche, bụ okwu ndị ahụ m bidoro ịgwa gị site nʼoge ọchịchị Josaya ruo ugbu a.
3 Mhlawumbe abendlu kaJuda bazakuzwa bonke ububi engicabanga ukubenza kubo; ukuze baphenduke, ngulowo lalowo endleleni yakhe embi, ukuze ngithethelele ububi babo lesono sabo.
Ma eleghị anya mgbe ndị Juda nụrụ ka e kwupụtara ihe banyere ihe ọjọọ ndị ahụ m zubere, nke na-aga ịbịakwasị ha, onye ọbụla nʼime ha nʼotu nʼotu ga-esite nʼụzọ ọjọọ ya tụgharịa. Mgbe ahụ, aga m agbaghara ha ajọ omume ha na mmehie ha.”
4 UJeremiya wasebiza uBharukhi indodana kaNeriya; uBharukhi wasebhala okuvela emlonyeni kaJeremiya, wonke amazwi eNkosi eyayiwakhulume kuye, emqulwini wogwalo.
Ya mere, Jeremaya kpọrọ Baruk nwa Neraya ka ọ bịakwute ya. Mgbe Jeremaya nọ na-akpọpụta okwu ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị gwara ya, Baruk nọkwa na-edepụta ha nʼakwụkwọ.
5 UJeremiya waselaya uBharukhi esithi: Ngivinjelwe, kangilakungena endlini yeNkosi.
Emesịa, Jeremaya gwara Baruk okwu sị ya, “Ọnọdụ nke m nọ nʼime ya ugbu a agaghị ekwe ka m site nʼebe a pụọ jeruo nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị.
6 Ngakho hamba wena, ufunde emqulwini owubhalileyo, kuvela emlonyeni wami, amazwi eNkosi endlebeni zabantu endlini yeNkosi ngosuku lokuzila ukudla; uwafunde futhi endlebeni zakhe wonke uJuda abavela emizini yabo.
Nʼihi ya, gaa nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị ibu ọnụ, nọdụ nʼebe ahụ gụpụtara ndị mmadụ okwu Onyenwe anyị ndị a ị dere nʼakwụkwọ dịka m kpọpụtara ha. Gụpụtara ya ndị Juda si obodo niile bịa nʼụlọnsọ ahụ.
7 Mhlawumbe ukuncenga kwabo kuzakuwa phambi kweNkosi, baphenduke, ngulowo lalowo endleleni yakhe embi; ngoba lukhulu ulaka lentukuthelo iNkosi ekukhulume kulababantu.
Ma eleghị anya, ha ga-arịọ Onyenwe anyị arịrịọ. Ma eleghị anya onye ọbụla nʼime ha ga-esite nʼụzọ ọjọọ ya tụgharịa, ka iwe na ọnụma dị ukwuu nke Onyenwe anyị ga-ekpughe megide ndị a ghara ịbịakwasị ha.”
8 UBharukhi indodana kaNeriya wasesenza njengakho konke uJeremiya umprofethi ayemlaye khona, efunda egwalweni amazwi eNkosi endlini yeNkosi.
Baruk nwa Neraya mere dịka Jeremaya onye amụma si gwa ya. Ọ gụpụtara okwu Onyenwe anyị, nke dị nʼakwụkwọ ahụ, nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị.
9 Kwasekuthi emnyakeni wesihlanu kaJehoyakhimi, indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, ngenyanga yesificamunwemunye, bamemezela ukuzila ukudla phambi kweNkosi, bonke abantu eJerusalema, labantu bonke abavela emizini yakoJuda eJerusalema.
Nʼọnwa itoolu nke afọ ise nke ọchịchị Jehoiakim nwa Josaya eze Juda, e doro oge dị iche nye maka ibu ọnụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. E kwusara ibu ọnụ a nye ndị niile nọ na Jerusalem, na ndị si nʼobodo Juda niile bịa na Jerusalem.
10 UBharukhi wasefunda egwalweni amazwi kaJeremiya endlini yeNkosi, ekamelweni likaGemariya, indodana kaShafani, umbhali, egumeni elingaphezulu, emnyango wesango elitsha lendlu yeNkosi, endlebeni zabantu bonke.
Baruk nọ nʼọnụụlọ Gemaraya nwa Shefan, bụ ode akwụkwọ, gụpụtara ndị niile nọ nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị okwu Jeremaya, nke dị nʼakwụkwọ a dị nsọ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama ọhụrụ nke ụlọnsọ ahụ.
11 UMikhaya, indodana kaGemariya, indodana kaShafani, wasesizwa wonke amazwi eNkosi avela kulolugwalo,
Mgbe Mikaya nwa Gemaraya nwa Shefan nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị nke e si nʼakwụkwọ ahụ gụpụta,
12 wehlela endlini yenkosi, ekamelweni lombhali; khangela-ke, zonke iziphathamandla zazihlezi lapho, uElishama umbhali, loDelaya indodana kaShemaya, loElinathani indodana kaAkhibhori, loGemariya indodana kaShafani, loZedekhiya indodana kaHananiya, leziphathamandla zonke.
o si nʼebe ahụ pụọ, gaa nʼụlọ ode akwụkwọ dị nʼụlọeze, ebe ndịisi niile zukọrọ. Ndị a bụ ndị zukọrọ nʼebe ahụ; Elishama, ode akwụkwọ, na Delaya nwa Shemaya, na Elnatan nwa Akboa, na Gemaraya nwa Shefan, na Zedekaya nwa Hananaya, na ndịisi ọchịchị ndị ọzọ.
13 UMikhaya wasebatshela wonke amazwi ayewezwile, lapho uBharukhi efunda egwalweni endlebeni zabantu.
Mgbe Mikaya gwara ha ihe ọ nụrụ Baruk si nʼakwụkwọ ahụ gụpụtara ndị mmadụ,
14 Zonke iziphathamandla zasezithuma uJehudi, indodana kaNethaniya, indodana kaShelemiya, indodana kaKushi, kuBharukhi, zisithi: Umqulu ofunde kuwo endlebeni zabantu, uthathe ngesandla sakho uze. Ngakho uBharukhi indodana kaNeriya wathatha umqulu ngesandla sakhe, waya kuzo.
ndịisi ahụ niile zipụrụ Jehudi nwa Netanaya, nwa Shelemaya, nwa Kushi, ka o jekwuru Baruk sị ya “Were akwụkwọ ahụ ị si na ya gụpụtara ndị mmadụ ihe, bịa.” Ya mere, Baruk, nwa Neraya, ji akwụkwọ a nʼaka ya jekwuru ha.
15 Zasezisithi kuye: Ake uhlale phansi, uwufunde endlebeni zethu. UBharukhi wasefunda endlebeni zazo.
Mgbe o ruru nʼebe ahụ, ha gwara ya sị ya, “Biko, nọdụ ala gụọra anyị ihe dị nʼakwụkwọ a.” Ya mere, Baruk gụpụtara ha ihe dị nʼakwụkwọ ahụ.
16 Kwasekusithi sezizwile wonke amazwi, zethukile, ngulowo lalowo ekhangele kumakhelwane wakhe, zathi kuBharukhi: Sizayitshela isibili inkosi wonke amazwi la.
Mgbe ha nụchasịrị okwu dị nʼakwụkwọ ahụ, ha lerịtara onwe ha anya nʼegwu, gwa Baruk okwu sị ya, “Anyị aghaghị ime ka okwu ndị a ruo eze ntị.”
17 Zasezimbuza uBharukhi zisithi: Ake usitshele, wawabhala njani wonke lamazwi emlonyeni wakhe?
Ha jụrụ Baruk sị ya, “Gwa anyị i si aṅaa detuo ihe ndị a niile? Ọ bụ Jeremaya kpọpụtaara gị ihe i dere?”
18 UBharukhi wasesithi kuzo: Wangifundela wonke lamazwi evela emlonyeni wakhe, ngawabhala egwalweni ngeyinki.
Baruk zara sị ha, “E, ọ bụ ya kpọpụtara m okwu ndị a niile m deturu. E ji m inki dee ha nʼakwụkwọ.”
19 Iziphathamandla zasezisithi kuBharukhi: Hamba ucatshe, wena loJeremiya, kakungabi lamuntu owaziyo lapho elikhona.
Mgbe ahụ, ndịisi ahụ gwara Baruk okwu sị ya, “Ọsọ, gaa ka gị na Jeremaya zoo onwe unu. Unu ekwekwala ka onye ọbụla mata ebe unu zoro onwe unu.”
20 Zasezingena enkosini egumeni, kodwa umqulu zawubeka ekamelweni likaElishama umbhali; zakhuluma wonke amazwi endlebeni zenkosi.
Mgbe ha zochasịrị akwụkwọ ahụ nʼọnụụlọ Elishama onye ode akwụkwọ, ha jekwuuru eze nʼogige ụlọ ya kọọrọ ya ihe niile.
21 Inkosi yasithuma uJehudi ukuthi awulande umqulu; wasewuthatha ekamelweni likaElishama umbhali; uJehudi wawufunda endlebeni zenkosi lendlebeni zazo zonke iziphathamandla ezazimi enkosini.
Eze ziri Jehudi ka ọ gaa weta akwụkwọ ahụ. Mgbe Jehudi wetara ya site nʼọnụụlọ Elishama, ode akwụkwọ, ọ gụrụ ya nʼihu eze, na nʼihu ndịisi ọchịchị ahụ niile guzo nʼakụkụ eze.
22 Inkosi yayihlezi-ke endlini yobusika ngenyanga yesificamunwemunye; umlilo wawuvutha embawuleni phambi kwayo.
Nʼọnwa nke itoolu ahụ, mgbe eze nọ nʼụlọ oyi ya, ọkụ na-enwukwa nʼime ite ọkụ dị nʼihu ya.
23 Kwasekusithi lapho uJehudi esefundile amakhasi amathathu loba amane, yawasika ngengqamu yombhali, yawaphosela emlilweni osembawuleni, waze watsha waphela umqulu wonke emlilweni osembawuleni.
Mgbe ọbụla Jehudi gụsịrị ibe akwụkwọ atọ maọbụ anọ, eze na-anara ya akwụkwọ ndị ahụ were agụba ode akwụkwọ chakasịa ha, wụnye ha nʼọkụ. O megidere otu a tutu ruo mgbe ọ wụnyechara akwụkwọ ndị ahụ niile nʼọkụ.
24 Kodwa kabesabanga, kabadabulanga izembatho zabo, inkosi lenceku zayo zonke, abawezwayo wonke lamazwi.
Eze na ndị so ya nọdụ nʼoge a na-agụpụta akwụkwọ a atụghị egwu ọbụla; ha adọwakwaghị uwe ha igosi obi ọjọọ.
25 Loba kunjalo labo oElinathani loDelaya loGemariya beyincenga inkosi ukuthi ingawutshisi umqulu, kodwa kayibalalelanga.
Ọ bụ ezie na Elnatan na Delaya na Gemaraya rịọrọ eze sị ya adọkasịla akwụkwọ ndị ahụ, ma o geghị ha ntị.
26 Kodwa inkosi yalaya uJerameli indodana yenkosi, loSeraya indodana kaAziriyeli, loShelemiya indodana kaAbideli, ukuze babambe uBharukhi umbhali loJeremiya umprofethi; kodwa iNkosi yabafihla.
Kama eze nyere Jerameel otu nʼime ụmụ eze, na Seraya nwa Azriel, na Shelemaya nwa Abdeel iwu ijide Baruk ode akwụkwọ, na Jeremaya onye amụma, ma Onyenwe anyị zoro ha.
27 Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kuJeremiya emva kokuthi inkosi isiwutshisile umqulu lamazwi uBharukhi ayewabhalile evela emlonyeni kaJeremiya, lisithi:
Mgbe eze suresịrị akwụkwọ ahụ na okwu niile nke Baruk dere nʼime ya ọkụ, bụ okwu nke Jeremaya kpọpụtara site nʼọnụ ya, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Jeremaya ntị sị ya:
28 Zithathele futhi omunye umqulu, ubhale kuwo wonke amazwi okuqala ayesemqulwini wokuqala, uJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda eyawatshisayo.
“Werekwa akwụkwọ ọzọ dee okwu ndị ahụ niile e dere nʼakwụkwọ nke mbụ ahụ, nke Jehoiakim eze Juda kpọrọ ọkụ.
29 Njalo uzakuthi kuJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Wena utshisile lumqulu, usithi: Ubhaleleni kiwo usithi: Inkosi yeBhabhiloni izafika isibili, ilichithe lelilizwe, yenze ukuthi kuphele kulo abantu lenyamazana?
Ọzọkwa, gwa Jehoiakim eze Juda sị ya, ‘otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Ị kpọrọ akwụkwọ ndị ahụ ọkụ, kwuo sị, “Gịnị mere i ji dee nʼime ya na eze Babilọn aghaghị ịbịa bibie ala a, gbuchapụ ndị niile nọ nʼime ya, ma mmadụ ma anụmanụ?”
30 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi mayelana loJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda: Kayikuba lamuntu ohlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida; lesidumbu sakhe sizaphoselwa ekutshiseni kwemini lekuqandeni kobusuku.
Nʼihi ya, ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru banyere Jehoiakim eze Juda; Ọ gaghị amụta onye ga-anọ nʼocheeze Devid. Ọzọ, a ga-atụfu ozu ya nʼebe igirigi nke abalị ga-adakwasị ya, ebe okpomọkụ nke ehihie ga-erute ya.
31 Ngizamjezisa-ke yena, lenzalo yakhe, lenceku zakhe, ububi babo; ngehlisele phezu kwabo laphezu kwabahlali beJerusalema laphezu kwabantu bakoJuda konke okubi engikukhulume kubo, kodwa kabalalelanga.
Aga m ata ya na ụmụ ya, na ndị ozi ya ahụhụ nʼihi ajọ omume ha. Aga m eme ka ihe ọjọọ ahụ m kwuru ihe banyere ya bịakwasị ha na ndị niile bi na Jerusalem, na ndị Juda niile, nʼihi na ha jụrụ ige m ntị.’”
32 UJeremiya wasethatha omunye umqulu, wawunika uBharukhi, indodana kaNeriya, umbhali, owabhala kiwo okuvela emlonyeni kaJeremiya wonke amazwi ogwalo uJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda eyalutshisayo ngomlilo; kwengezelelwa-ke kiwo amanye amazwi amanengi afanana lawo.
Ya mere, Jeremaya weere akwụkwọ ọzọ nye Baruk ode akwụkwọ, bụ nwa Neraya, dịka Jeremaya na-akpọpụta okwu, Baruk depụtakwara nʼakwụkwọ okwu ndị ahụ niile, nke Jehoiakim eze Juda surere nʼọkụ. A tụkwasịkwara nʼelu ha ọtụtụ okwu ndị ọzọ nke dịka ha.
