Ermiyaas 2
1 Dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe;
Laselifika kimi ilizwi leNkosi 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 uyememezela endlebeni zeJerusalema usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngiyakukhumbula, umusa wobutsha bakho, uthando lokuganwa kwakho, ukungilandela kwakho enkangala, elizweni 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.
UIsrayeli wayeyibungcwele eNkosini, izithelo zokuqala zesivuno sayo; bonke abamudlayo bazakuba lecala, ububi buzabehlela, itsho iNkosi.
4 Yaa mana Yaaqoob, isin maatiiwwan mana Israaʼel hundinuus dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa.
Zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, ndlu kaJakobe, lensendo zonke zendlu kaIsrayeli.
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.
Itsho njalo iNkosi: Yibubi bani oyihlo ababuthola kimi, ukuze baye khatshana lami, balandele okuyize, babe 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.
Njalo kabatshongo ukuthi: Ingaphi iNkosi eyasenyusa elizweni leGibhithe, eyasikhokhela enkangala, elizweni elilamagwadule lelilemigodi, elizweni lokoma, lelethunzi lokufa, elizweni umuntu angalidabulanga, lalapho okungahlalanga muntu khona?
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.
Njalo ngaliletha elizweni elivundileyo, ukuze lidle izithelo zalo lokuhle kwalo; kodwa selingenile lalingcolisa ilizwe lami, lenza ilifa lami laba yisinengiso.
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.
Abapristi kabatshongo ukuthi: Ingaphi iNkosi? Lalabo abaphatha umlayo kabangazanga; lababusi baphambuka bemelene lami; labaprofethi baprofetha ngoBhali, balandela izinto ezingasiziyo.
9 “Kanaafuu ani amma iyyuu isin wajjin falmii qaba” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ijoollee ijoollee keessanii wajjinis falmii nan qabaadha.
Ngakho ngisezaphikisana lawe, itsho iNkosi, njalo ngizaphikisana labantwana babantwana benu.
10 Mee gara qarqara Kitiimitti ceʼaatii ilaalaa; gara Qeedaarittis nama ergaatii qalbiidhaan qoradhaa; yoo duraan wanni akkasii taʼee jiraates ilaalaa.
Ngoba dlulelani ezihlengeni zeKhithimi libone, lithumele eKedari, linakane kuhle, libone ukuthi kukhona into enjengale yini?
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 yini onkulunkulu baso, abangeyisibo onkulunkulu? Kodwa abantu bami bantshintshile uDumo lwabo ngalokho okungasizi lutho.
12 Yaa samiiwwan, waan kana dinqifadhaa; naasuu guddaadhaanis holladhaa” jedha Waaqayyo.
Mangalani kakhulu, mazulu, ngalokhu, lethuke, lichitheke kakhulu, itsho iNkosi.
13 “Uummanni koo cubbuu lama hojjete: Isaan ana burqaa bishaan jireenyaa dhiisanii boolla bishaanii ofii isaanii, boolla bishaanii baqaqaa bishaan qabachuu hin dandeenye qotataniiru.
Ngoba abantu bami benzile izinto ezimbi ezimbili; bangidelile mina mthombo wamanzi aphilayo, ukuthi bazigebhele izikhongozelo, izikhongozelo ezidabukileyo, ezingegcine manzi.
14 Israaʼel garbaa? Inni garbicha manatti dhalatee? Yoos inni maaliif boojiʼame ree?
UIsrayeli uyisigqili yini? Kumbe esizelwe ekhaya yini? Kungani waba yimpango?
15 Leenconni aadaniiru; isattis gururiʼaniiru. Isaan biyya isaa onsaniiru; magaalaawwan isaas gubamanii duwwaa hafaniiru.
Amabhongo ezilwane abhongele phezu kwakhe, akhupha ilizwi lawo, enza ilizwe lakhe laba yincithakalo; imizi yakhe itshisiwe ingelamhlali.
16 Akkasumas namoonni Memfiisii fi Tahiphaanhees mataa kee buruqsaniiru.
Futhi abantwana beNofi leThahaphanesi badlele enkanda yakho.
17 Ati yeroo inni karaa irra si qajeelchetti, Waaqayyoon Waaqa kee dhiisuudhaan waan kana ofitti fiddeerta mitii?
Kawuzenzelanga lokhu yini, ngokuthi udele iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, ngesikhathi ikukhokhela endleleni?
18 Egaa ati maaliif Shihoorii bishaan dhuguuf jettee biyya Gibxi dhaqxa? Maaliifis bishaan laga Efraaxiis dhuguuf jettee Asoor dhaqxa?
Khathesi-ke ulani lendlela yeGibhithe, ukuthi unathe amanzi eSihori? Futhi ulani lendlela yeAsiriya, ukuthi unathe amanzi omfula?
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 buzakulaya, lokuhlehlela kwakho nyovane kuzakukhuza. Ngakho yazi ubone ukuthi kuyinto embi lebabayo ukuthi uyidelile iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, lokuthi ukungesaba kakukho kuwe, itsho iNkosi uJehova wamabandla.
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.
Ngoba kwasendulo ngephula ijogwe lakho, ngaqamula izibopho zakho; wasusithi: Kangiyikukhonza; kodwa phezu kwalo lonke uqaqa oluphakemeyo langaphansi kwaso sonke isihlahla esiluhlaza wazulazula 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?
Kube kanti mina ngakuhlanyela, ulivini elihle, inhlanyelo ethembekileyo ngokupheleleyo. Pho, usuphenduke njani waba lugatsha olonakeleyo lwevini lemzini kimi?
22 Ati yoo daaraadhaan dhiqattee saamunaa hedduutti fayyadamte iyyuu, xuriin yakka keetii amma illee fuula koo dura jira” jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
Ngoba lanxa ugeza ngesoda, uzithathele isepa enengi, kanti ububi bakho bube lichatha phambi kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
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 njani ukuthi: Kangingcolanga, kangilandelanga oBhali? Bona indlela yakho esigodini, wazi ukuthi wenzeni, kamela elisikazi elilejubane elizulazula ezindleleni zalo.
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.
Ungubabhemi weganga owejwayele inkangala, ophembela umoya enkanukweni yenhliziyo yakhe. Ngubani ongamvimbela enkanukweni yakhe? Bonke abamdingayo kabayikuzidinisa; ngenyanga yakhe bazamthola.
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.
Nqanda unyawo lwakho ekungabini ngolungelasicathulo, lomphimbo wakho ekomeni; kodwa wena wathi: Kakulathemba; hatshi; ngoba ngathanda abemzini, njalo ngizabalandela.
26 “Akkuma hattuun yeroo qabamtu salphifamtu sana manni Israaʼel ni salphifama; isaan, mootonni isaaniitii fi qondaaltonni isaanii, luboonni isaaniitii fi raajonni isaanii ni salphifamu.
Njengesela lilenhloni lapho selibanjiwe, ngokunjalo indlu kaIsrayeli ilenhloni, bona, amakhosi abo, iziphathamandla zabo, labapristi babo, labaprofethi 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.
besithi esigodweni: Wena ungubaba; lelitsheni: Wena wangizala. Ngoba baphendulele umhlana kimi, hatshi-ke ubuso; kodwa ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka kwabo bazakuthi: Sukuma, usisindise!
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.
Kodwa bangaphi onkulunkulu bakho ozenzele bona? Kabasukume uba bengakusindisa ngesikhathi sobubi bakho; ngoba njengenani lemizi yakho bangako onkulunkulu bakho, Juda.
29 “Isin maaliif na himattu? Isin hundinuu natti finciltaniirtu” jedha Waaqayyo.
Liphikisanelani lami? Lonke liphambekile kimi, itsho iNkosi.
30 “Ani akkasumaanan ijoollee keessan adabe; isaan sirreeffama fudhachuu didan. Goraadeen keessan akkuma leenca beelaʼe tokkootti raajota keessan fixxe.
Ngibatshayile abantwana benu ngeze; kabemukelanga ukuqondiswa; inkemba yenu ibadlile abaprofethi benu, njengesilwane esichithayo.
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 sizukulwana, lina bonani ilizwi leNkosi. Bengiyinkangala yini kuIsrayeli? Kumbe ilizwe lobumnyama obunzima yini? Batsholoni abantu bami ukuthi: Sizulazulile; kasisayikuza kuwe?
32 Durbi tokko faaya ishee, misirrittiin tokko immoo miʼa ittiin heerumtu ni irraanfattii? Sabni koo garuu, guyyaa hamma hin qabne na irraanfateera.
Intombi ingazikhohlwa yini iziceciso zayo, kumbe umakoti amabhanti akhe? Kanti abantu bami bangikhohliwe insuku ezingelanani.
33 Ati jaalala adamsuutti akkam ogeettii dha! Dubartoota akka malee hamoo taʼan iyyuu amala kee barsiifteerta.
Kungani ulungisa indlela yakho ekudingeni uthando? Ngakho ubafundisile labo ababi izindlela 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
Lezigqokweni zakho kutholakala igazi lemiphefumulo yabayanga abangelacala; kawubatholanga befohlela phakathi, kodwa phezu kwakho 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.
Kanti wena uthi: Ngoba kangilacala, isibili intukuthelo yakhe izaphenduka isuke kimi. Khangela, ngizakwehlulelana lawe, ngoba uthi: Kangonanga.
36 Ati maaliif karaa kee geeddaruudhaan, asii fi achi deemuu baayʼifta? Akkuma Asoor si qaanessite sana Gibxis si qaanessiti.
Kungani uzulazula kangaka ukuntshintsha indlela yakho? Uzayangiswa yiGibhithe layo, njengoba wayangiswa yiAsiriya.
37 Ati mataa kee qabattee, iddoo sanaa baata; Waaqayyo warra ati itti irkatte tuffateeraatii; ati isaaniin hin milkooftu.
Yebo, uzaphuma usuka lapha, lezandla zakho ziphezu kwekhanda lakho, ngoba iNkosi iwalile amathemba akho, njalo kawuyikuphumelela ngawo.
