Ermiyaas 21
1 Yeroo Zedeqiyaa Mootichi Phaashihuur ilma Malkiyaatii fi Sefaaniyaa lubicha ilma Maʼaseyaa gara Ermiyaasitti ergetti dubbiin akkana jedhu Waaqayyo biraa gara Ermiyaas dhufe. Jarri ergamanis akkana jedhan;
Ilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini lapho inkosi uZedekhiya ethuma kuye uPashuri indodana kaMalikiya, loZefaniya indodana kaMahaseya, umpristi, isithi:
2 “Sababii Nebukadnezar mootichi Baabilon nu waraanaa jiruuf Waaqayyoon nuu gaafadhu. Tarii Waaqayyo akkuma duraan godhe sana hojiiwwan dinqii nuuf hojjetee akka mootichi nurraa deebiʼu ni godha taʼaatii.”
Ake usibuzele eNkosini, ngoba uNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni ulwa emelene lathi; mhlawumbe iNkosi ingasenzela njengokwezimangaliso zayo zonke, ukuze enyuke asuke kithi.
3 Ermiyaas garuu akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Zedeqiyaadhaan akkana jedhaa;
UJeremiya wasesithi kubo: Lizakutsho njalo kuZedekhiya:
4 ‘Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Ani miʼoota waraanaa harka keessan jiran, kanneen isin ittiin mootii Baabilonii fi Baabilonota isin marsanii dallaan ala jiran loluuf itti fayyadamtan kana isinitti nan garagalcha. Anis magaalaa kana keessatti isaan walitti nan qaba.
Itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Khangelani, ngizaphendulela emuva izikhali zempi ezisezandleni zenu, elilwa ngazo lenkosi yeBhabhiloni lamaKhaladiya, abalivimbezeleyo ngaphandle komduli, ngibaqoqe ngaphakathi kwalumuzi.
5 Ani mataan koo harka diriirfamee fi irree jabaadhaan, aarii bobaʼuu fi dheekkamsa guddaadhaan waraana isinitti nan bana.
Njalo mina ngizakulwa lani ngesandla eseluliweyo, langengalo elamandla, langentukuthelo, langokufutheka, langolaka olukhulu.
6 Ani waan magaalaa kana keessa jiraatu jechuunis namaa fi horii nan dhaʼa; isaanis dhaʼicha hamaadhaan dhumu.
Njalo ngizatshaya abakhileyo balumuzi, umuntu kanye lesifuyo; bazakufa ngomatshayabhuqe wesifo omkhulu.
7 Anis ergasii, jedha Waaqayyo, Zedeqiyaa mooticha Yihuudaa, qondaaltota isaatii fi jiraattota magaalaa kanaa kanneen dhaʼicha jalaa, goraadee fi beela jalaa baʼan Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilonii fi diinota isaanii kanneen lubbuu isaanii balleessuu barbaadanitti dabarsee nan kenna. Mootichis goraadeedhaan isaan fixa; inni isaaniif hin hilu yookaan hin naʼuuf yookaan garaa hin laafuuf.’
Kuthi emva kwalokhu, itsho iNkosi, uZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda, lenceku zakhe, labantu, labaseleyo phakathi kwalumuzi kumatshayabhuqe wesifo, enkembeni, lendlaleni, ngizabanikela esandleni sikaNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, lesandleni sezitha zabo, lesandleni salabo abadinga impilo yabo. Njalo uzabatshaya ngobukhali benkemba; kayikubayekela, kayikuhawukela, kayikuba lomusa.
8 “Amma illee akkana jedhii saba kanatti himi; Waaqayyo akkana jedha: ‘kunoo, ani karaa jireenyaatii fi karaa duʼaa fuula keessan dura nan kaaʼa.
Njalo kulababantu uzakuthi: Itsho njalo INkosi: Khangelani, ngibeka phambi kwenu indlela yokuphila lendlela yokufa.
9 Namni magaalaa kana keessatti hafu kam iyyuu goraadeedhaan, beelaan yookaan dhaʼichaan duʼa. Namni gad baʼee Baabilonota isin marsanii jiranitti harka kennatu kam iyyuu garuu ni jiraata; lubbuu isaas ni oolfata.
Osala kulumuzi uzakufa ngenkemba langendlala langomatshayabhuqe wesifo; kodwa ophumayo, awele kumaKhaladiya alivimbezelayo, uzaphila, lempilo yakhe izakuba yimpango kuye.
10 Ani magaalaa kanaaf waan gaarii gochuuf utuu hin taʼin ishee miidhuuf kutadheera, jedha Waaqayyo. Isheenis dabarfamtee harka mootii Baabilonitti ni kennamti; inni immoo ibiddaan ishee barbadeessa.’
Ngoba ngimisile ubuso bami bumelene lalumuzi ngokubi, hatshi ngokuhle, itsho iNkosi; uzanikelwa esandleni senkosi yeBhabhiloni, iwutshise ngomlilo.
11 “Akkasumas mana mootii Yihuudaatiin akkana jedhi; ‘Isin dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa;
Lamayelana lendlu yenkosi yakoJuda, zwanini ilizwi leNkosi:
12 Yaa mana Daawit, Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “‘Ganama hunda murtii qajeelaa kennaa; nama saamame tokko harka nama isa cunqursuutii baasaa; yoo kanaa achii sababii jalʼina isin hojjettaniitiif dheekkamsi koo buʼee akkuma ibiddaa bobaʼa; namni isa dhaamsu tokko iyyuu hin jiraatu.
Wena ndlu kaDavida, itsho njalo INkosi: Yehlulelani isahlulelo ekuseni, lophule ophangiweyo esandleni somcindezeli, hlezi ulaka lwami luphume njengomlilo, lutshise, ukuthi kungabi khona ocitshayo, ngenxa yobubi bezenzo zenu.
13 Yaa ishee sulula kanaan ol dirree kattaa qabu irra jiraattu, ani sitti kaʼeen jira, jedha Waaqayyo; isin warri, “Eenyuttu nutti dhufuu dandaʼa? Eenyutus daʼannoo keenya seenuu dandaʼa?” jettan,
Khangela, ngimelene lawe, wena mhlali wesigodi, dwala legceke, itsho iNkosi; lina elithi: Ngubani ozakwehla amelane lathi? Kumbe ngubani ozangena endaweni zethu zokuhlala?
14 ani akkuma hojii keessaniif malutti isinan adaba, jedha Waaqayyo. Ani ibidda waan naannoo keessan jiru hunda barbadeessu bosona keessanitti nan qabsiisa.’”
Kodwa ngizalijezisa njengokwesithelo sezenzo zenu, itsho iNkosi, ngiphembe umlilo ehlathini lakho, ozaqeda konke inhlangothi zonke zakho.
