UJeremiya 6
1 Lina bantwana bakoBhenjamini, buthanelani ukubaleka liphume phakathi kweJerusalema, livuthele uphondo eThekhowa, liphakamise uphawu lomlilo eBeti-Hakeremi: ngoba ububi bubona phansi busenyakatho, lencithakalo enkulu.
“Yaa saba Beniyaam baqadhaa baʼaa! Yerusaalem keessaa baqadhaa! Teqooʼaa keessatti malakata afuufaa! Beet Hakerem irratti mallattoo ol qabaa! Karaa kaabaatiin balaan, badiisni suukaneessaan ni dhufaatii.
2 Indodakazi yeZiyoni ngiyifananise lowesifazana omuhle obuthakathaka.
Ani Intala Xiyoon ishee bareedduu fi qananiituu sana nan galaafadha.
3 Abelusi bazafika kuye lemihlambi yabo; bazamisa amathente beqondene laye inhlangothi zonke, beluse ngulowo lalowo endaweni yakhe.
Tiksoonni bushaayee isaanii fudhatanii isheetti dhufu; dunkaana isaaniis isheetti naannessanii dhaabatu. Tokkoon tokkoon isaaniis iddoo isaaniitti bobbaafatu.”
4 Zehlukaniseleni impi limelene layo; sukumani, kasenyuke emini enkulu. Maye kithi! ngoba ilanga selithambeme, ngoba amathunzi okuhlwa aselulekile.
“Isheetti waraana kaasuuf qophaaʼaa! Kaʼaa, guyyaa saafaadhaan ishee waraanaa! Wayyoo, aduun dhiʼaa jirti; gaaddisni galgalaas dheerateera.
5 Sukumani, senyuke ngobusuku, sidilize izigodlo zayo.
Kanaafuu kaʼaa, halkaniin ishee dhoofnee daʼannoowwan ishee barbadeessinaa!”
6 Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Gamulani izihlahla, libuthelele umduli wokuvimbezela limelene leJerusalema. Yiwo lo umuzi ozajeziswa; kulocindezelo kuphela phakathi kwawo.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha; “Mukkeen ishee ciraa; naannoo Yerusaalemitti tuulaa biyyoo tolchaa; magaalaan kun adabamuu qabdi; isheen cunqursaadhaan guutamteertii.
7 Njengomthombo umpompoza amanzi awo, ngokunjalo umpompoza inkohlakalo yawo; udlakela lencithakalo kuzwakala kuwo; phambi kwami kulenhlungu lamanxeba njalonjalo.
Akkuma boolli bishaanii bishaan yaasu sana, isheenis hammina ishee gad yaafti; jeequmsii fi badiisni ishee keessatti ni dhagaʼama. Dhukkubnii fi madaan ishee yeroo hunda fuula koo dura jiran.
8 Layeka, Jerusalema, hlezi umphefumulo wami wehlukane lawe; hlezi ngikwenze unxiwa, ilizwe elingahlalwanga.
Yaa Yerusaalem gorsa koo dhagaʼi; yoo kanaa achii ani sirraa garagalee, akka namni tokko iyyuu keessa jiraachuu hin dandeenyeef, biyya kee nan onsa.”
9 Itsho njalo INkosi yamabandla: Bazayikhothoza lokuyikhothoza insali kaIsrayeli njengevini; buyisela isandla sakho ezitsheni njengomvuni wevini.
Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Akkuma wayiniin sirriitti funaanamu sana, isaanis hambaa Israaʼel haa funaanan; akkuma nama ija wayinii ciru tokkootti; ammas harka kee gara dameewwaniitti hiixadhu.”
10 Ngizakhuluma kubani, ngixwayise, ukuze bezwe? Khangela, indlebe yabo kayisokwanga, kabalakulalela; khangela, ilizwi leNkosi lilihlazo kibo, kabathokozi ngalo.
Ani eenyuttin dubbadhee akeekkachiisuu dandaʼa? Eenyutu na dhaggeeffata? Kunoo, gurri isaanii dhagna hin qabanne; dhagaʼuus hin dandaʼan. Dubbiin Waaqayyoo isaanitti hin tolu; ittis hin gammadan.
11 Ngakho ngigcwele ulaka lweNkosi, ngikhathele yikuzithiba. Ngizakuthululela phezu kwabantwana esitaladeni lemhlanganweni wamajaha ndawonye, ngoba lendoda kanye lomfazi bazathathwa, omdala kanye logcwele izinsuku.
Ani garuu dheekkamsa Waaqayyootiin guutameera; obsuus hin dandaʼu. “Ijoollee daandii irra jiran irratti, dargaggoota walitti qabaman irratti, dhirsaa fi niitii irratti, warra dulloomanittis dheekkamsa nan dhangalaasa.
12 Lezindlu zabo zizanikelwa kwabanye, amasimu labafazi kanyekanye; ngoba ngizakwelulela isandla sami phezu kwabahlali belizwe, itsho iNkosi.
Yeroo ani harka koo warra biyyattii keessa jiraatanitti ol fudhadhutti manneen isaanii, lafa qotiisaa isaaniitii fi niitota isaanii wajjin namoota kaaniif kennamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
13 Ngoba kusukela komncinyane wabo kuze kufike komkhulu wabo bonke bayizihwaba zenzuzo embi; njalo kusukela komprofethi kuze kube kompristi bonke benza ngenkohliso.
“Xinnaadhaa hamma guddaatti hundi isaanii iyyuu buʼaa argachuuf gaggabu; raajonnii fi luboonnis akkasuma hundi isaanii nama gowwoomsu.
14 Bapholisa kancane inxeba labantu bami, besithi: Ukuthula, ukuthula; lapho kungekho ukuthula.
Isaan madaa saba kootii akkuma waan xinnaa tokkootti ilaalanii walʼaanu. Utuu nagaan hin jiraatinis ‘Nagaa, nagaa’ jedhu.
15 Baba lenhloni yini lapho besenza isinengiso? Hatshi, kababanga lanhloni lakanye, futhi kabakwazi ukuyangeka. Ngakho bazakuwa phakathi kwabawayo; ngesikhathi sokubahambela kwami bazakhubeka, itsho iNkosi.
Isaan amala isaanii jibbisiisaa sanatti ni qaanaʼuu? Lakkii, isaan qaanii tokko iyyuu hin qaban; qaanaʼuun maal akka taʼe iyyuu hin beekan. Kanaafuu isaan warra kufan wajjin ni kufu; yeroo ani isaan adabutti gad gatamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
16 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Manini ezindleleni, libone, libuze ngemikhondo yasendulo, ukuthi ingaphi indlela enhle, lihambe kuyo, njalo lizazuzela imiphefumulo yenu ukuthula. Kodwa bathi: Kasiyikuhamba ngayo.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Karaa qaxxaamuraa irra dhaabadhaatii ilaalaa; daandii durii iyyaafadhaa; karaan gaariin garam akka jiru gaafadhaatii irra deemaa; lubbuu keessaniif boqonnaa ni argattuutii. Isin garuu, ‘Nu isa irra hin deemnu’ jettan.
17 Futhi ngilibekele abalindi, ngisithi: Lalelani ukukhala kophondo. Kodwa bathi: Kasiyikulalela.
Ani eegdota isinitti ramadeen ‘Sagalee malakataa dhaggeeffadhaa!’ jedhe, isin garuu, ‘Hin dhaggeeffannu’ jettan.
18 Ngakho zwanini, lina zizwe, wazi, wena bandla, okuphakathi kwabo.
Kanaafuu yaa saboota dhagaʼaa; yaa waldaa, waan isaanitti dhufuuf jiru hubadhaa.
19 Zwana, wena mhlaba; khangela, ngizaletha ububi phezu kwalababantu, isithelo semicabango yabo, ngoba bengalalelanga amazwi ami, lomlayo wami, kodwa bawalile.
Yaa lafaa dhagaʼi: Ani waan isaan dubbii koo dhagaʼuu didanii seera koos tuffataniif, saba kanatti badiisa nan fida; kunis ija daba isaanii ti.
20 Izelani kimi impepha ivela eShebha, lomhlanga olephunga elimnandi ovela elizweni elikhatshana? Iminikelo yenu yokutshiswa kayemukeleki, lemihlatshelo yenu kayimnandi kimi.
Ixaanni biyya Shebaatii dhufu, yookaan qayyii biyya fagootii dhufu maal na fayyada? Aarsaan keessan kan gubamu fudhatama hin qabu; qalmi keessanis hin tolu.”
21 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, ngizabeka izikhubekiso phambi kwalababantu, njalo oyise lamadodana bakhubeke kanyekanye kuzo, umakhelwane lomngane wakhe, bazabhubha.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani fuula saba kanaa dura gufuu nan kaaʼa. Abbootiinii fi ijoolleen walii wajjin itti gufatu; olloonnii fi michoonni ni barbadaaʼu.”
22 Itsho njalo INkosi: Khangela, abantu bayeza bevela elizweni lenyakatho, lesizwe esikhulu sizavuswa ezinhlangothini zomhlaba.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Kunoo, gareen loltootaa tokko biyya kaabaatii dhufaa jira; sabni guddaan tokkos andaara lafaatii sosochoʼaa jira.
23 Bazabamba idandili lomkhonto; balesihluku, kabalasihawu; ilizwi labo lihlokoma njengolwandle; bagade amabhiza, behleliwe njengabantu bempi bemelene lawe, ndodakazi yeZiyoni.
Isaan xiyyaa fi eeboo qabataniiru; isaan gara jabeeyyii, namaafis naasuu hin qabnee dha. Yommuu isaan fardeen isaanii gulufanitti gigigsuun isaanii akkuma huursaa galaanaa ti; yaa Intala Xiyoon, isaan akkuma namoota duulaaf hiriiraniitti si loluuf dhufu.”
24 Siyizwile indumela yakho, izandla zethu ziyadangala; usizi lusibambile, ubuhlungu obunjengobowesifazana obelethayo.
Nu oduu waaʼee isaanii dhageenyeerra; harki keenyas ni laafe. Dhiphinni nu qabateera; miixuunis akkuma dubartii ciniinsifattuu nu qabe.
25 Lingaphumi liye egangeni, lingahambi endleleni, ngoba kukhona inkemba yesitha, ukwesaba inhlangothi zonke.
Sababii diinni goraadee qabatee fi sababii iddoo hunda gooliin jiruuf isin diidatti gad hin baʼinaa; yookaan karaa irra hin deemnaa.
26 Wena ndodakazi yabantu bami, bhinca amasaka, ubhuquze emlotheni, uzenzele isililo, esinjengesendodana eyiyo yodwa, ukukhala okubuhlungu kakhulu; ngoba umchithi uzafika kithi masinyane.
Yaa saba ko, uffata gaddaa uffadhaatii daaraa keessa gangaladhaa; akka nama ilma isaa tokkicha dhabeetti hiqqifadhaa booʼaa; inni nama balleessu sun akkuma tasaa nutti dhufaatii.
27 Ngikubekile ube ngumphotshongo lenqaba phakathi kwabantu bami, ukuze wazi uhlole indlela yabo.
“Akka ati karaa isaanii qortee beektuuf ani saba koo gidduutti qorataa si godheera.
28 Bonke bangabahlamuki abalenkani, behamba behleba; balithusi lensimbi, bonke bangabonakalisi.
Hundi isaanii finciltoota mata jabeeyyii maqaa namaa balleessuuf asii fi achi jooranii dha. Isaan naasii fi sibiila; isaan hundinuu malaa maltummaa hojjetu.
29 Imvutho itshile, umnuso usuqedwe ngumlilo; umncibilikisi uncibilikisela ize, ngoba ababi kabakhutshwa.
Buufaan dilaalii ibiddaan gubee balleessuuf humna guddaan buufa; hojiin ibiddaan qulqulleessuu kun faayidaa malee hojjetama; namoonni hamoon hin balleeffamneetii.
30 Bazababiza ngokuthi bayisiliva esilahliweyo, ngoba iNkosi ibalahlile.
Sababii Waaqayyo isaan gateef isaan meetii gatamaa jedhamu.”
