< UJeremiya 51 >
1 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela ngizavusela iBhabhiloni lalabo abahlala enhliziyweni yalabo abangivukelayo umoya ochithayo.
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 Ngithume eBhabhiloni abelayo, abazakuyela, bathulule ilizwe layo, ngoba bazamelana layo bevela inhlangothi zonke ngosuku lobubi.
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 Kakuthi otshokayo agobise idandili lakhe emelene loligobisayo, njalo emelene loziphakamisayo ebhatshini lakhe lensimbi; njalo lingawayekeli amajaha ayo, lilitshabalalise ibutho layo lonke.
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 Ngokunjalo ababuleweyo bazakuwa elizweni lamaKhaladiya, labagwazwe ezitaladeni zayo.
ʻE tō pehē ʻae teʻia ʻi he fonua ʻo Kalitia, pea mo kinautolu kuo hokaʻi ke ʻasi ʻi he ngaahi hala.
5 Ngoba uIsrayeli kayikutshiywa, loJuda nguNkulunkulu wabo, yiNkosi yamabandla, lanxa ilizwe labo ligcwele icala koNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
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 liphume phakathi kweBhabhiloni, likhulule ngulowo lalowo umphefumulo wakhe; lingaqunywa esiphambekweni sayo; ngoba lesi yisikhathi sempindiselo yeNkosi, ophindisela impindiselo kuyo.
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 seNkosi, eyayidakisa umhlaba wonke; izizwe zanatha okwewayini layo; ngenxa yalokho izizwe zahlanya.
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 yahle yawa, yephuka; qhinqani isililo ngayo, lithathele ubuhlungu bayo ibhalisamu, mhlawumbe ingelatshwa.
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 Besingayelapha iBhabhiloni, kodwa kayelaphekanga; itshiyeni, asihambeni ngulowo lalowo aye elizweni lakhe; ngoba isigwebo sayo sifinyelele emazulwini, siphakanyisiwe kwaze kwafika esibhakabhakeni.
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 INkosi ikhuphe ukulunga kwethu; wozani, silandise eZiyoni umsebenzi weNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu.
Kuo fakahā ʻe Sihova ʻetau angatonu: ‘Haʻu ke tau fakahā ʻi Saione ʻae ngāue ʻa Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua.’
11 Lolani imitshoko, liqoqe izihlangu; iNkosi ivusile umoya wamakhosi amaMede; ngoba icebo layo limelene leBhabhiloni ukuyichitha; ngoba lokho kuyimpindiselo yeNkosi, impindiselo yethempeli layo.
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 Phakamisani isiboniso phezu kwemiduli yeBhabhiloni, liqinise ukulinda, libeke abalindi, lilungise abacathami, ngoba iNkosi isikucebile, futhi izakwenza lokho ekukhulume ngabahlali beBhabhiloni.
“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 Wena ohlala emanzini amanengi, owande ngamagugu, ukuphela kwakho sekufikile, isilinganiso senzuzo yakho embi.
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 INkosi yamabandla ifungile ngomphefumulo wayo yathi: Isibili ngizakugcwalisa ngabantu njengamacimbi, njalo bazahlabelela umkhosi ngawe.
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, walimisa ilizwe ngenhlakanipho yakhe, langokuqedisisa kwakhe wendlala amazulu.
“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 ekhupha ilizwi lakhe, kulokuhlokoma kwamanzi amanengi emazulwini, ukhuphula inkungu ivela emkhawulweni womhlaba, enze imibane kanye lezulu, 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 Wonke umuntu uyisiphukuphuku kalalwazi; wonke umkhandi wegolide uyangiswa yisithombe esibaziweyo, ngoba isithombe sakhe esibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa siyinkohliso, njalo kakulamoya kuzo.
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, umsebenzi wezinkohliso; ngesikhathi sokuhanjelwa kwazo zizabhubha.
Ko e vaʻinga ʻakinautolu, ko e ngāue ʻae kau hē: ʻe ʻauha ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo honau ʻaʻahi.
19 Isabelo sikaJakobe kasinjengazo; ngoba yena nguye umbumbi wakho konke, loIsrayeli uyintonga yelifa lakhe; iNkosi yamabandla libizo lakhe.
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, izikhali zempi; ngoba ngawe ngizaphahlaza izizwe, langawe ngichithe 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 langawe ngiphahlaze ibhiza lomgadi walo, langawe ngiphahlaze inqola lomkhweli 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 langawe ngiphahlaze indoda lowesifazana, langawe ngiphahlaze ixhegu lomutsha, langawe ngiphahlaze ijaha lentombi,
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 langawe ngiphahlaze umelusi lomhlambi wakhe, langawe ngiphahlaze umlimi lesipani sakhe, langawe ngiphahlaze ababusi lezinduna.
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 Njalo ngizayiphindisela iBhabhiloni labo bonke abahlali beKhaladiya konke okubi kwabo abakwenzileyo eZiyoni emehlweni enu, itsho iNkosi.
“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 Khangela, ngimelana lawe, wena ntaba echithayo, itsho iNkosi, echitha umhlaba wonke; ngizakwelulela isandla sami kuwe, ngikugiqe usuke emadwaleni, ngikwenze ube yintaba yokutshiswa.
“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 Njalo kabayikuthatha kuwe ilitshe libe ngelengonsi, lelitshe libe ngelezisekelo; ngoba uzakuba ngamanxiwa aphakade, itsho iNkosi.
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 isiboniso elizweni, livuthele uphondo phakathi kwezizwe, lilungise izizwe ukumelana layo, liyibizele ndawonye imibuso yeArarathi, iMini, leAshikenazi; libeke umlawuli webutho emelene layo, lenyuse amabhiza njengentethe ezimaxhakaxhaka.
“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 ukumelana layo, amakhosi amaMede, induna zayo, lababusi bayo bonke, lelizwe lonke lombuso wayo.
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 Lelizwe lizazamazama libe lobuhlungu, ngoba ngalinye lamacebo eNkosi lima limelene leBhabhiloni, ukwenza ilizwe leBhabhiloni libe yincithakalo engelamhlali.
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 Amaqhawe eBhabhiloni ayekele ukulwa, ahlala ezinqabeni, amandla awo aphelile, sebengabesifazana; bathungele indawo zayo zokuhlala, imigoqo yayo yephukile.
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 Isigijimi sizagijima ukuhlangana lesigijimi, lombiki ukuhlangana lombiki, ukutshela inkosi yeBhabhiloni ukuthi umuzi wayo uthunjiwe kusukela ekucineni,
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 lamazibuko abanjiwe, lamaxhaphozi atshiswe ngomlilo, lamadoda empi ethukile.
Pea kuo tāpuni ʻae ngaahi hala, pea kuo tutu ʻae kaho ʻaki ʻae afi, pea kuo ilifia ʻae kau tangata tau.
33 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Indodakazi yeBhabhiloni injengebala lokubhulela; kuyisikhathi sokuyinyathela; kuseyisikhatshana, lesikhathi sesivuno sizafika kuyo.
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 UNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni ungidlile, ungichobozile; wangibeka ngaba yimbiza engelalutho, wangiginya njengomgobho, wagcwalisa isisu sakhe ngezibondlo zami, wangixotsha.
“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 lwami lolwenyama yami kube phezu kweBhabhiloni, utsho umhlalikazi weZiyoni; legazi lami libe phezu kwabahlali beKhaladiya, itsho 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 itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, ngizalumela udaba lwakho, ngiphindisele impindiselo yakho; ngomise ulwandle lwayo, ngenze umthombo wayo wome.
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 LeBhabhiloni izakuba ngamadundulu, indawo yokuhlala yemigobho, isesabiso, lento yokuncifelwa, kungelamhlali.
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 Bazabhonga kanyekanye njengamabhongo ezilwane, bahwabhe njengemidlwane yezilwane.
Pea te nau ngungulu fakataha ʻo hangē ko e fanga talākoni; pea te nau ueʻi ʻakinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e fanga ʻuhikiʻi laione.
39 Ekutshisekeni kwabo ngizabenzela amadili, ngibadakise ukuze bathokoze, balale ubuthongo obulaphakade, bangavuki, itsho iNkosi.
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 Ngizabehlisa njengamawundlu ekuhlatshweni, njengezinqama kanye lezimpongo.
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 Ithunjwe njani iSheshaki; yebo, lubanjiwe udumo lomhlaba wonke! IBhabhiloni isibe njani yisesabiso 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 lukhukhumele phezu kweBhabhiloni, isibekelwe ngobunengi bamagagasi alo.
Kuo hake ʻae tahi ki Papilone: kuo ʻufiʻufi ia ʻaki hono ngaahi peau lahi.
43 Imizi yayo isingamanxiwa, ilizwe elomileyo, lenkangala, ilizwe okungahlali muntu kulo, okungadluli kulo indodana yomuntu.
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 Njalo ngizajezisa uBheli eBhabhiloni, ngikhuphe emlonyeni wakhe lokho akuginyileyo; lezizwe kazisayikujulukela kuyo; yebo, umduli weBhabhiloni uwile.
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 Phumani phakathi kwayo, bantu bami, likhulule ngulowo lalowo umphefumulo wakhe ekuvutheni kolaka lweNkosi.
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 Njalo hlezi inhliziyo yenu ibe buthakathaka, lesabe ngombiko ozwakala elizweni; ngoba kuzafika umbiko ngomunye umnyaka, lemva kwalokho umbiko ngomnyaka olandelayo, lodlakela elizweni, lombusi avukele 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 Ngakho khangela, insuku ziyeza lapho engizahambela izithombe ezibaziweyo zeBhabhiloni; lelizwe lonke layo lizayangeka, lababuleweyo bayo bonke bawele 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 Kuzakuthi-ke amazulu lomhlaba lakho konke okukukho kuhlabelele ngeBhabhiloni, ngoba abachithi bazayifikela bevela enyakatho, itsho iNkosi.
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 Njengalokhu iBhabhiloni yenza bawe ababuleweyo bakoIsrayeli, ngokunjalo ababuleweyo bomhlaba wonke bazakuwa eBhabhiloni.
Hangē kuo tō ʻae mate ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi Papilone ʻe tō pehē ʻi Papilone ʻae tāmateʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
50 Lina eliphunyukileyo enkembeni, hambani, lingemi; khumbulani iNkosi lisekhatshana, leJerusalema ivele enhliziyweni yenu.
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 sizwile ihlazo; inhloni zisibekele ubuso bethu, ngoba abezizwe sebefikile ezindaweni ezingcwele zendlu yeNkosi.
“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 Ngakho khangela, insuku ziyeza, itsho iNkosi, lapho engizahambela izithombe zayo ezibaziweyo; lakulo lonke ilizwe layo kuzabubula ogwaziweyo.
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 Loba iBhabhiloni ingaphakamela emazulwini, njalo loba ingaqinisa ukuphakama kwamandla ayo, kube kanti abachithi bazayifikela bevela kimi, itsho iNkosi.
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 Kulomsindo wokukhala ovela eBhabhiloni, lokufohlela okukhulu elizweni lamaKhaladiya.
ʻOku ongo mai ʻae longoaʻa ʻoe tangi mei Papilone, pea mo e fakaʻauha lahi mei he fonua ʻoe kau Kalitia:
55 Ngoba iNkosi ichithile iBhabhiloni, yabhubhisa kuyo ilizwi elikhulu. Lapho amagagasi abo ahlokoma njengamanzi amanengi, umsindo wawo uzakhupha ilizwi.
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 Ngoba umchithi wehlela phezu kwayo, phezu kweBhabhiloni, amaqhawe ayo azathunjwa, amadandili awo ephukile; ngoba iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wezimpindiselo, uzayivuza sibili.
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-ke iziphathamandla zayo, lezihlakaniphi zayo, ababusi bayo, lenduna zayo, lamaqhawe ayo; njalo bazalala ubuthongo obulaphakade, bangavuki, itsho iNkosi, obizo layo nguJehova wamabandla.
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 Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Imiduli ebanzi yeBhabhiloni izadilizwa ngokupheleleyo, lamasango ayo aphakemeyo athungelwe ngomlilo, labantu batshikatshikele ize, lezizwe zitshikatshikele umlilo, zikhathale.
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 Ilizwi uJeremiya umprofethi alilaya uSeraya indodana kaNeriya, indodana kaMahaseya, ekuhambeni kwakhe loZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda ukuya eBhabhiloni emnyakeni wesine wokubusa kwakhe. Njalo uSeraya wayeyisiphathamandla sokuthula.
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 wasebhala egwalweni konke okubi okuzakwehlela iBhabhiloni, wonke lamazwi abhaliweyo emelene leBhabhiloni.
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 UJeremiya wasesithi kuSeraya: Lapho usufikile eBhabhiloni, ubone ufunde wonke lamazwi.
Pea pehē ʻe Selemaia kia Selaia, “ʻOka ke ka hoko ki Papilone, te ke mamata, pea lau ʻae ngaahi lea ni kotoa pē;
62 Ubususithi: Nkosi, wena ukhulumile ngalindawo ukuthi uzayiquma, ukuze kungabi khona umhlali kiyo, kusukela emuntwini kusiya enyamazaneni, kodwa ibe zincithakalo phakade.
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.’
