Ermiyaas 14
1 Dubbiin Waaqayyoo waaʼee hongee akkana jedhee gara Ermiyaas dhufe:
Leli yilizwi likaThixo elafika kuJeremiya mayelana lokoma elizweni lisithi:
2 “Yihuudaan ni boossi; magaalaawwan ishees gad deebiʼaa jiru; isaan biyyattiidhaaf ni wawwaatu; iyyi tokkos Yerusaalemii dhagaʼamaa jira.
“UJuda uyalila, amadolobho akhe ayahlupheka; alilela ilizwe, njalo isililo siyaqonga sivela eJerusalema.
3 Namoonni gurguddoonni hojjettoota isaanii bishaan waraabuuf ergatu; isaanis gara boolla bishaanii dhaqu; garuu bishaan hin argatan. Isaan okkotee isaanii duwwaa qabatanii deebiʼu; isaan qaanaʼanii abdii kutatanii mataa isaanii haguuggatu.
Izikhulu zithuma izinceku zazo ukuyafuna amanzi; ziya emithonjeni kodwa zifice amanzi engekho. Ziyabuyela lemigqomo yazo ingelalutho; zithithibele njalo zidanile, zemboze amakhanda azo.
4 Sababii biyyattii keessaa bokkaan dhabameef lafti ni babbaqaqxe; qonnaan bultoonnis abdii kutatanii mataa isaanii haguuggatu.
Umhlabathi uqhekezekile ngoba akulazulu elizweni; abalimi bathithibele njalo bemboze amakhanda abo.
5 Sababii margi hin jirreef, borofni bakkee iyyuu ilmoo ishee kan reefuu dhalatte gattee deemti.
Lenyamazana ensikazi egangeni iyabalekela inkonyane layo elizelweyo ngoba akulatshani.
6 Harroonni diidaa lafa ol kaʼaa qullaa irra ijaajjanii akkuma waangotaa arganu; sababii waan dheedan dhabaniif iji isaanii waa arguu dadhabe.”
Obabhemi beganga bema emiqolweni elugwadule bakhefuzele njengamakhanka; amehlo abo asefiphele ngenxa yokuswela amadlelo.”
7 Yaa Waaqayyo, cubbuun keenya nutti dhugaa baʼu iyyuu ati maqaa keetiif jedhiitii waa nuu godhi. Duubatti deebiʼuun keenya baayʼateera; nu cubbuu sitti hojjenneerra.
Lanxa izono zethu zifakaza kubi ngathi, Oh Thixo, ake wenze okunye ngenxa yebizo lakho. Ngoba ukuhlehlela kwethu emuva kunengi; sonile kuwe.
8 Yaa abdii Israaʼel, Fayyisaa ishee kan yeroo rakkinaa, ati maaliif akkuma kara deemtuu halkan tokko qofa bultuu biyyattii keessatti akkuma keessummaa taata?
Oh Themba lika-Israyeli, uMhlengi wakhe ezikhathini zokuhlupheka, kungani usiba njengowezizweni elizweni, njengesihambi esihlala ubusuku obubodwa kuphela?
9 Ati maaliif akka nama waan godhu wallaale tokkoo, akkuma loltuu nama oolchuu hin dandeenye tokkoo taata? Yaa Waaqayyo, ati nu gidduu jirta; nu maqaa keetiin waamamna; ati nu hin gatin.
Kungani usiba njengomuntu ojunyiweyo, lanjengebutho elingelamandla okusiza na? Ukhona phakathi kwethu, wena Thixo, njalo sibizwa ngebizo lakho; ungasilahli!
10 Waaqayyo waaʼee saba kanaa akkana jedha: “Isaan jooruu jaallatu; miilla isaanii hin ittifatan. Kanaafuu Waaqayyo isaanitti hin gammadu; inni amma hammina isaanii ni yaadata; cubbuu isaaniitiifis isaan adaba.”
Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo ngalababantu: “Bayakuthanda kakhulu ukuntula; kabazibambi inyawo zabo. Ngakho uThixo kayikubamukela; khathesi uzakhumbula ububi babo abajezisele izono zabo.”
11 Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Akka sabni kun nagaan jiraatu na hin kadhatin.
UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Ungakhulekeli inhlalakahle yabantu laba.
12 Yoo isaan sooman iyyuu ani iyya isaanii hin dhagaʼu; yoo isaan aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa midhaanii dhiʼeessan iyyuu ani hin fudhadhu. Qooda kanaa ani goraadeedhaan, beelaa fi dhaʼichaan isaan nan balleessa.”
Lanxa bezila ukudla, ukukhala kwabo angiyikukulalela; loba benikela iminikelo yokutshiswa kanye leminikelo yamabele, angiyikuyamukela. Esikhundleni salokho, ngizabaqeda du ngenkemba, ngendlala langezifo.”
13 Ani garuu akkana nan jedhe; “Wayyoo yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, raajonni saba kanaan, ‘Isin goraadee hin argitan yookaan hin beeloftan. Ani dhugumaan nagaa dhuma hin qabne iddoo kanatti isiniif nan kenna’ jedhu.”
Kodwa mina ngathi, “Awu Thixo Wobukhosi, abaphrofethi bahlezi bebatshela besithi, ‘Kaliyikubona inkemba loba libulawe yindlala. Impela, ngizalipha ukuthula okungapheliyo kule indawo.’”
14 Amma illee Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Raajonni sun maqaa kootiin soba raaju. Ani isaan hin ergine yookaan isaan hin muudne yookaan isaanitti hin dubbanne. Isaan mulʼataa fi raajii sobaa, waaqa tolfamaa waaqeffachuu fi waan ofuma isaaniitii yaadan isinitti himu.
UThixo wasesithi kimi, “Abaphrofethi baphrofetha amanga ngebizo lami. Angibathumanga njalo angibakhethanga kumbe ngikhulume labo. Baphrofetha imibono yamanga kini, ukuhlahlula, ukukhonza izithombe lenkohliso yezingqondo zabo.
15 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo waaʼee raajota maqaa isaatiin raajan sanaa akkana jedha: ani isaan hin ergine; isaan garuu, ‘Goraadeen yookaan beelli tokko iyyuu biyya kana hin tuqu’ jedhu. Raajonni sun iyyuu goraadee fi beelaan dhumu.
Ngakho-ke, nanku okutshiwo nguThixo ngabaphrofethi abaphrofetha ngebizo lami ukuthi: Kangizange ngibathume, kodwa bona bathi, ‘Akulankemba kumbe indlala ezathinta ilizwe leli.’ Bona labo abaphrofethi bazabhujiswa ngenkemba langendlala.
16 Namoonni isaan raajii dubbataniif sunis beelaa fi goraadeedhaan daandiiwwan Yerusaalem irratti harcaafamu. Namni isaan yookaan niitota isaanii, ilmaan isaanii yookaan intallan isaanii awwaalu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Ani badiisa isaaniif malu isaanitti nan dhangalaasaatii.
Abantu abaphrofetha kubo bazaphoselwa phandle emigwaqweni yaseJerusalema ngenxa yendlala lenkemba. Akulamuntu ozabangcwaba kumbe omkabo, amadodana abo loba amadodakazi abo. Ngizabehlisela ingozi ebafaneleyo.
17 “Akkana jedhii dubbii kana isaanitti dubbadhu: “‘Iji koo halkanii fi guyyaa utuu gargar hin kutin imimmaan haa lolaasu; intalli, Durbi Qulqullittiin saba kootii akka malee madooftee dhaʼicha hamaadhaan dhaʼamte.
Khuluma ilizwi leli kubo uthi: ‘Amehlo ami kawehlise inyembezi ebusuku lemini zingomi; ngoba indodakazi yami egcweleyo, labantu bami balimele kakhulu, balinyazwe yikutshaywa okwesabekayo.
18 Ani yoon baadiyyaa dhaqe, warra goraadeedhaan dhuman nan arga; yoon magaalaa seene immoo, warra beelaan dhuman nan arga. Raajonnii fi luboonni biyya hin beekne keessa jooru.’”
Nxa ngingena elizweni, ngibona labo ababulawa ngenkemba; nxa ngingena edolobheni ngibona umonakalo owenziwa yindlala. Bobabili umphrofethi lomphristi sebeye elizweni abangalaziyo.’”
19 Ati Yihuudaa guutumaan guutuutti gatteertaa? Xiyooniinis ni tuffattaa? Ati maaliif akka nu fayyuu hin dandeenyeef nu miita? Nu nagaa abdanne; garuu wanni gaariin tokko iyyuu hin dhufne; nu yeroo fayyinaa abdanne; garuu raafama qofatu jira.
UJuda usumlahle kokuphela na? IZiyoni uyaleyisa na? Usitshayeleni kangaka size singelapheki na? Sasilindele ukuthula kodwa akulabuhle obaba khona, isikhathi sokwelatshwa kodwa kulokwesaba kuphela.
20 Yaa Waaqayyo, nu hammina keenyaa fi yakka abbootii keenyaa ni beekna; nu dhugumaan cubbuu sitti hojjenneerra.
Awu Thixo, siyakuvuma ukona kwethu kanye lokona kwabokhokho bethu; impela sonile kuwe.
21 Ati maqaa keetiif jedhiitii nu hin tuffatin; teessoo kee ulfina qabeessa sanas hin qaanessin. Kakuu nu wajjin galte sana yaadadhu; isas hin cabsin.
Ngenxa yebizo lakho ungasenyanyi; ungasigconi isihlalo sakho sobukhosi esihle kakhulu. Khumbula isivumelwano sakho lathi ungasephuli.
22 Waaqota Namoota Ormaa kanneen faayidaa hin qabne sana keessaa tokko iyyuu bokkaa ni roobsaa? Samiiwwan mataan isaanii iyyuu tiifuu gad erguu? Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqni keenya suma mitii? Kanaafuu abdiin keenya suma; situ waan kana hunda hojjetaatii.
Zikhona yini izithombe eziyize zezizwe ezinganisa izulu na? Imikhathi yona ngokwayo iyalinisa izulu na? Hatshi, nguwe, Thixo Nkulunkulu wethu. Ngakho ithemba lethu likuwe, ngoba nguwe owenza konke lokhu.
