< Ermiyaas 2 >
1 Dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi,
2 “Dhaqiitii gurra Yerusaalemiitti akkana jedhii labsi: “Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “‘Ani amanamummaa kee kan yeroo dargaggummaa, akka ati akkuma misirrittiitti na jaallattee lafa gammoojjii keessa, lafa midhaan itti hin facaafamin keessa na duukaa buute nan yaadadha.
“Hamba umemezele iJerusalema lisizwa uthi: Lokhu yikho okutshiwo nguThixo: ‘Ngiyakukhumbula ukuzinikela kwasebutsheni bakho, ukungithanda kwakho njengomlobokazi ungilandela enkangala, phakathi kwelizwe elingahlanyelwanga.
3 Israaʼel kan Waaqayyoof qulqulloofte sun, mataa midhaan isaa turte; warri ishee nyaatan hundis akka nama yakka hojjeteetti ilaalamu ture; badiisnis isaanitti dhufe’” jedha Waaqayyo.
U-Israyeli wayengcwele kuThixo, eyizithelo zakuqala zesivuno sakhe, bonke abamtshwabadelayo baba lecala, behlelwa yincithakalo,’” kutsho uThixo.
4 Yaa mana Yaaqoob, isin maatiiwwan mana Israaʼel hundinuus dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa.
Zwana ilizwi likaThixo, we ndlu kaJakhobe, lani lonke sendo lwendlu ka-Israyeli.
5 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Abbootiin keessan kan akkas narraa fagaatan balleessaa maalii narratti arganiitii? Isaan waaqota tolfamoo faayidaa hin qabne faana buʼanii isaanumtuu warra faayidaa hin qabne taʼan.
UThixo uthi: “Yibubi bani okhokho benu ababubona kimi, baze bedukele khatshana kangaka lami? Balandela izithombe eziyize, labo ngokwabo baba yize.
6 Isaanis, ‘Waaqayyo inni Gibxii nu baasee, gammoojjii homtuu keessa hin jirre keessaan, lafa gammoojjii fi dhooqaa keessaan lafa hongee fi dukkanaa, biyya namni tokko iyyuu keessa hin dabarree fi keessa hin jiraanne keessaan dabarsee nu fide sun eessa jira?’ jedhanii hin gaafanne.
Kababuzanga ukuthi, ‘Ungaphi uThixo, owasikhupha elizweni laseGibhithe wasikhokhela emagangeni alugwadule phakathi kwelizwe lezinkangala lezindonga, ilizwe lokoma lobumnyama, ilizwe elingahanjwa muntu lelingelamuntu ohlala kulo?’
7 Ani akka isin ija ishee nyaattanii midhaan isheetti gammaddaniif gara lafa gabbataatti isin fideera. Isin garuu dhuftanii biyya koo xureessitan; handhuuraa koos akka jibbamu gootan.
Ngaliletha elizweni elivundileyo ukuba lidle izithelo zalo lezilimo ezinhle. Kodwa lina lafika langcolisa ilizwe lami, lenza ilifa lami langakhwabitheki.
8 Luboonnis, ‘Waaqayyo eessa jira?’ jedhanii hin gaafanne. Warri seera wajjin oolanis na hin beekne; bulchitoonni natti fincilan; raajonnis waaqota faayidaa hin qabne duukaa buʼanii maqaa Baʼaaliin raajii dubbatan.
Abaphristi kababuzanga ukuthi, ‘Ungaphi UThixo?’ Labo abaphatha umthetho abangazanga; abakhokheli bangihlamukela. Abaphrofethi baphrofetha ngoBhali balandela izithombe eziyize.
9 “Kanaafuu ani amma iyyuu isin wajjin falmii qaba” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ijoollee ijoollee keessanii wajjinis falmii nan qabaadha.
Ngakho-ke ngilethesa amacala futhi,” kutsho uThixo. “Labantwana babantwana benu ngizabethesa amacala.
10 Mee gara qarqara Kitiimitti ceʼaatii ilaalaa; gara Qeedaarittis nama ergaatii qalbiidhaan qoradhaa; yoo duraan wanni akkasii taʼee jiraates ilaalaa.
Welani liye ngasemakhunjini aseKhithimi likhangele, thumelani eKhedari lihlolisise kuhle, libone langabe sekwake kwaba lento enjengale:
11 Yoo isaan waaqota taʼuu baatan iyyuu sabni tokko takkumaa waaqota isaa geeddaree beekaa? Uummanni koo garuu ulfina isaa waaqota tolfamoo faayidaa hin qabneen geeddareera.
Isizwe sake santshintsha onkulunkulu baso na? (Belo bavele kabasibo onkulunkulu.) Kodwa abantu bami bantshintshe inkazimulo yabo ngenxa yezithombe eziyize.
12 Yaa samiiwwan, waan kana dinqifadhaa; naasuu guddaadhaanis holladhaa” jedha Waaqayyo.
Mangalani lokhu, lina mazulu, lithuthumele ngokwesaba okukhulu,” kutsho UThixo.
13 “Uummanni koo cubbuu lama hojjete: Isaan ana burqaa bishaan jireenyaa dhiisanii boolla bishaanii ofii isaanii, boolla bishaanii baqaqaa bishaan qabachuu hin dandeenye qotataniiru.
“Abantu bami benze izono ezimbili: Bangidelile, mina mthombo wamanzi okuphila, bagebha eyabo imithombo, imithombo evuzayo engagcini manzi.
14 Israaʼel garbaa? Inni garbicha manatti dhalatee? Yoos inni maaliif boojiʼame ree?
Kambe u-Israyeli yisisebenzi, isigqili ngokuzalwa na? Pho kungani eseyimpango na?
15 Leenconni aadaniiru; isattis gururiʼaniiru. Isaan biyya isaa onsaniiru; magaalaawwan isaas gubamanii duwwaa hafaniiru.
Izilwane zibhongile; sezihwabhile kuye. Zilichithile ilizwe lakhe; amadolobho akhe atshisiwe, atshiywa engaselamuntu.
16 Akkasumas namoonni Memfiisii fi Tahiphaanhees mataa kee buruqsaniiru.
Njalo, labantu baseMemfisi leThahiphanesi baphuce ikhanda lakho.
17 Ati yeroo inni karaa irra si qajeelchetti, Waaqayyoon Waaqa kee dhiisuudhaan waan kana ofitti fiddeerta mitii?
Lokhu kawukwehliselanga phezu kwakho ngokudela uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho lapho ekukhokhela endleleni na?
18 Egaa ati maaliif Shihoorii bishaan dhuguuf jettee biyya Gibxi dhaqxa? Maaliifis bishaan laga Efraaxiis dhuguuf jettee Asoor dhaqxa?
Khathesi kungani usiya eGibhithe ukuba unathe amanzi eShihori na? Njalo kungani usiya e-Asiriya ukuba unathe amanzi eYufrathe na?
19 Hamminni kee si adaba; duubatti deebiʼuun kees si ifata. Ati Waaqayyoon Waaqa kee dhiiftee na sodaachuu diduun kee hammam hamaa fi hadhaaʼaa akka sitti taʼe ilaalii hubadhu” jedha Gooftaan, Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
Ububi bakho buzakujezisa; ukutshedela kwakho emuva kuzakukhuza. Ngakho cabanga ubone ukuthi kubi njalo kubuhlungu kanjani lapho udela uThixo uNkulunkulu wakho njalo ungelavalo ngami,” kutsho iNkosi uThixo uSomandla.
20 “Ani bara dheeraan dura waanjoo kee sirraa cabseera; hidhaa kees sirraa kukkuteera. Ati garuu, ‘Ani si hin tajaajilu’ jette! Ati garuu akkuma sagaagaltuu tokkootti tulluuwwan dhedheeroo hunda irraa fi mukkeen lalisoo hunda jala ciifte.
“Endulo wephula ijogwe lakho, waquma izibopho zakho; wathi, ‘Kangiyikukukhonza!’ Lakanye, phezu kwamaqaqa wonke langaphansi kwazo zonke izihlahla eziluhlaza walala phansi njengesifebe.
21 Ani garuu muka wayinii filatamaa, kan sanyiin isaa guutumaan guutuutti qulqulluu taʼe godhee si dhaabbadheen ture. Yoos ati akkamitti wayinii diidaa taatee natti geeddaramte ree?
Ngikuhlanyele njengevini elikhethiweyo elohlobo oluqinileyo loluthembekileyo. Pho kwenzakala njani ukuba ungiphendukele ube livini elibolileyo, leganga?
22 Ati yoo daaraadhaan dhiqattee saamunaa hedduutti fayyadamte iyyuu, xuriin yakka keetii amma illee fuula koo dura jira” jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
Lanxa ugeza ngesepa usebenzisa lesepa enengi, ichatha lobubi bakho lilokhu likhona phambi kwami,” kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
23 “Ati akkamitti, ‘Ani hin xuroofne; Baʼaal duukaas hin buune’ jechuu dandeessa? Waan sulula keessatti taʼaa turte yaadadhu; waan hojjechaa turtes qalbeeffadhu. Ati gaala dhalaa asii fi achi fiigduu dha;
“Ungatsho kanjani na uthi, ‘Kangingcolanga, kangibalandelanga oBhali’? Khangela ukuthi waziphatha njani esigodini, khumbula osukwenzile. Ulikamela elisikazi elilesiqubu eligijima lapha lalaphaya,
24 harree diidaa kan gammoojjii barattee fedhii kormaatiin qilleensa suufattu tokko, maaltu fedhii ishee irraa ishee deebisuu dandaʼa? Kormi ishee barbaadu kam iyyuu ishee argachuuf hin rakkatu; inni yeroo gaanaatti ishee argata.
ubabhemi weganga ojwayele inkangala, ophembela umoya enkanukweni yakhe, ngubani ongamenqabela ekukhanukeni kwakhe? Abaduna abamxotshayo bangazidinisi ukuxotshana labo; bazamthola ngesikhathi sezinsikazikhwela.
25 Miilla kee kophee malee deemuu irraa, laagaa kee immoo dheebuu irraa eeggadhu. Ati garuu, ‘Kun waan abdii hin qabnee dha! Ani waaqota ormaa nan jaalladha; isaan faanas nan buʼa’ jette.
Ungagijimi inyawo zakho zize zihlubuke lomphimbo wakho uze wome. Kodwa wena wathi, ‘Akusizi lutho! Ngiyabathanda onkulunkulu bezizweni, kumele ngibalandele.’
26 “Akkuma hattuun yeroo qabamtu salphifamtu sana manni Israaʼel ni salphifama; isaan, mootonni isaaniitii fi qondaaltonni isaanii, luboonni isaaniitii fi raajonni isaanii ni salphifamu.
Njengokuyangeka kwesela nxa selibanjiwe, ngokunjalo abantu bako-Israyeli bayangekile, bona kanye lamakhosi abo lezikhulu zabo, abaphristi babo labaphrofethi babo.
27 Isaan mukaan, ‘Ati abbaa koo ti,’ dhagaadhaan immoo, ‘Situ na dhale’ jedhu. Isaan dugda isaanii malee fuula isaanii natti hin deebifanneetii; taʼus isaan yeroo rakkatanitti, ‘Kottuu nu baasi!’ jedhu.
Bathi esigodweni, ‘Wena ungubaba wami,’ elitsheni bathi, ‘Nguwe owangizalayo.’ Bangifulathele, hatshi ngobuso babo nje; kodwa nxa sebehlupheka bathi, ‘Woza usihlenge.’
28 Waaqonni ati ofiif tolfatte sun eessa jiru? Isaan yoo si baasuu dandaʼan mee yeroo ati rakkina keessa jirtutti haa dhufan! Yaa Yihuudaa, ati akkuma magaalaa hedduu qabdu sana waaqota hedduu qabdaatii.
Pho bangaphi onkulunkulu elazenzela bona? Kabeze nxa bengakuhlenga lapho usuphakathi kokuhlupheka! Ngoba wena Juda ulabonkulunkulu abanengi njengobunengi bamadolobho akho.
29 “Isin maaliif na himattu? Isin hundinuu natti finciltaniirtu” jedha Waaqayyo.
Kungani lingethesa umlandu? Lonke lingihlamukele,” kutsho uThixo.
30 “Ani akkasumaanan ijoollee keessan adabe; isaan sirreeffama fudhachuu didan. Goraadeen keessan akkuma leenca beelaʼe tokkootti raajota keessan fixxe.
“Ukubajezisa kwami abantu bakho kwaba yize; kabakuvumanga ukuqondiswa. Inkemba yakho isibatshwabadele abaphrofethi bakho njengesilwane esiphangayo.
31 “Isin dhaloonni ammaa dubbii Waaqayyoo qalbeeffadhaa: “Ani Israaʼeliif gammoojjii yookaan biyya dukkana hamaan turee? Sabni koo maaliif, ‘Nu asii fi achi jooruu ni dandeenya; siʼachi gara kee hin dhufnu’ jedha?
Wena owalesisizukulwane, khumbula ilizwi likaThixo: Ngibe ngiyinkangala ku-Israyeli kumbe ilizwe lomnyama omkhulu na? Kungani abantu bami besithi, ‘Sikhululekile ukuba sizulazule; kasiyikuza kuwe futhi’?
32 Durbi tokko faaya ishee, misirrittiin tokko immoo miʼa ittiin heerumtu ni irraanfattii? Sabni koo garuu, guyyaa hamma hin qabne na irraanfateera.
Intombi ingazikhohlwa iziceciso zayo na, lomlobokazi akhohlwe izembatho zakhe na? Kodwa abantu bami bangikhohliwe, okwensuku ezingeke zibalwe.
33 Ati jaalala adamsuutti akkam ogeettii dha! Dubartoota akka malee hamoo taʼan iyyuu amala kee barsiifteerta.
Yeka ukuhlakanipha kwakho ekufuneni uthando! Labesifazane ababi kakhulu bangafunda ezindleleni zakho.
34 Ati utuu isaan cabsanii seenanuu isaan qabuu baattu iyyuu, dhiigni hiyyeeyyii balleessaa hin qabnee wayyaa kee irratti ni argama. Utuma wanni kun hundi taʼee jiruu
Ezigqokweni zakho abantu bathola igazi lokuphila elabayanga abangelacala lanxa ungababambanga befohlela phakathi. Kodwa kukho konke lokhu
35 ati, ‘Ani balleessaa hin qabu; inni natti hin dheekkamu’ jetta. Ani garuu sababii ati, ‘Ani cubbuu hin hojjenne’ jettuuf, sitti nan mura.
uthi, ‘Kangilacala; kangithukuthelelanga.’ Kodwa mina ngizakwahlulela, ngoba uthi, ‘Angonanga.’
36 Ati maaliif karaa kee geeddaruudhaan, asii fi achi deemuu baayʼifta? Akkuma Asoor si qaanessite sana Gibxis si qaanessiti.
Kungani uqhubeka kangaka, untshintsha izindlela zakho? IGibhithe izakuyangisa njengalokhu owakwenziwa yi-Asiriya.
37 Ati mataa kee qabattee, iddoo sanaa baata; Waaqayyo warra ati itti irkatte tuffateeraatii; ati isaaniin hin milkooftu.
Uzasuka kuleyondawo izandla zakho zisekhanda lakho, ngoba uThixo ubalahlile labo obathembayo; kabayikukusiza.”
