1 Dubbiin xalayaa kan Ermiyaas raajichi Yerusaalem irraa gara maanguddoota namoota boojiʼaman gidduutti hafaniittii fi lubootatti, raajotattii fi warra Nebukadnezar Yerusaalemii boojiʼee Baabilonitti geesse kaan hundatti erge sanaa kanaa dha.
La-ke ngamazwi encwadi ayithumelayo uJeremiya umprofethi ivela eJerusalema isiya kunsali yabadala babathunjiweyo lakubapristi lakubaprofethi lebantwini bonke ayebathumbile uNebhukadinezari besuka eJerusalema wabasa eBhabhiloni
2 Kunis erga Yehooyaakiin mootichii fi haati isaa mootittiin, xuʼaashiiwwan, dura buutota Yihuudaatii fi Yerusaalem, ogeeyyii hojii mukaatii fi tumtuuwwan Yerusaalemii boojiʼamanii deemanii booddee taʼe.
(emva kokuphuma kukaJekoniya inkosi, lendlovukazi, labathenwa, iziphathamandla zakoJuda lezeJerusalema, lababazi, labakhandi, besuka eJerusalema),
3 Innis xalayaa sana harka Eleʼaasaa ilma Shaafaaniittii fi Gemaariyaa ilma Hilqiyaa warra Zedeqiyaa mootichi Yihuudaa gara Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilonitti erge sanaatti kenne. Xalayaan sunis akkana jedha:
ngesandla sikaElasa indodana kaShafani, loGemariya indodana kaHilikhiya, uZedekhiya inkosi yakoJuda eyabathuma eBhabhiloni kuNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, isithi:
4 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel warra boojuudhaan Yerusaalemii gara Baabilonitti geeffaman hundaan akkana jedha:
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kibo bonke abathunjiweyo engabenza bathunjwa besuswa eJerusalema basiwa eBhabhiloni:
5 “Manneen ijaarradhaatii keessa jiraadhaa; biqiltuu dhaabbadhaatii ija isaa nyaadhaa.
Yakhani izindlu, lihlale kizo, lihlanyele izivande, lidle izithelo zazo;
6 Niitii fuudhaatii ilmaanii fi intallan dhalchaa; akka isaanis ilmaanii fi intallan dhalchaniif ilmaan keessan niitii fuusisaa; intallan keessan illee heerumsiisaa. Isinis achitti baayʼadhaa malee hin xinnaatinaa.
lithathe abafazi, lizale amadodana lamadodakazi, lithathele amadodana enu abafazi, lendise amadodakazi enu emadodeni, ukuze azale amadodana lamadodakazi, lande khona, linganciphi.
7 Magaalaa ani boojuudhaan itti isin ergeef illee nagaa fi badhaadhummaa hawwaa. Yoo isheen badhaate, isinis waan badhaataniif isheedhaaf Waaqayyoon kadhadhaa.”
Lidinge ukuthula komuzi lapho engilithumbele khona, liwukhulekele eNkosini; ngoba ekuthuleni kwawo lizakuba lokuthula.
8 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedhaatii: “Raajotaa fi ilaaltota isin gidduu jiraataniin hin gowwoomfaminaa. Abjuu akka isaan abjootaniif isaan kakaaftan sana hin dhaggeeffatinaa.
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Akuthi abaprofethi benu labavumisi benu abaphakathi kwenu bangalikhohlisi; lingawalaleli amaphupho enu eliwenza aphutshwe;
9 Isaan maqaa kootiin soba isiniif raaju. Ani isaan hin ergine” jedha Waaqayyo.
ngoba baprofetha amanga kini ngebizo lami; kangibathumanga, itsho iNkosi.
10 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Yeroo Waggaan torbaatamni Baabiloniif kenname sun xumuramutti ani gara keessan dhufeen waadaa akka iddoo kanatti isin deebisuuf gale sana nan raawwadha.
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi: Qiniso, lapho iminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa isigcwalisekile eBhabhiloni, ngizalihambela, ngiqinise ilizwi lami elihle kini, ukuthi ngilibuyise kulindawo.
11 Yaada ani isiniif qabu anatu beekaatii; innis yaada nagaati malee yaada hamaa miti; akkasumas yaada abdiitii fi kan galgala keessaniif toluu dha” jedha Waaqayyo.
Ngoba mina ngiyazi imicabango engiyicabanga ngani, itsho iNkosi, imicabango yokuthula, kayisiyo eyokubi, ukuthi ngilinike isiphetho lokulindelweyo.
12 “Isinis na waammattu; dhuftaniis na kadhattu; anis isin nan dhagaʼa.
Khona lizangibiza liyekhuleka kimi, ngilizwe.
13 Isin yoo garaa keessan guutuudhaan na barbaaddan, na argattu.
Njalo lizangidinga, lingithole, lapho lingidingisisa ngenhliziyo yenu yonke.
14 Anis akka isin na argattan nan godha; boojuudhaa deebisees isin nan fida” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani sabootaa fi lafa ani itti isin ariʼee ture hunda keessaa walitti isin qabee gara biyya ani keessaa baasee isin boojiʼamsiise sanaatti deebisee isinan fida” jedha Waaqayyo.
Njalo ngizatholwa yini, itsho iNkosi, ngibuyise ukuthunjwa kwenu, ngiliqoqe kuzo zonke izizwe lakuzo zonke indawo lapho engilixotshele khona, itsho iNkosi, ngilibuyise endaweni engalithumba livela khona.
15 Sababii isin, “Waaqayyo Baabilon keessatti raajota nuu kaaseera” jettaniif
Ngoba litshilo: INkosi isivusele abaprofethi eBhabhiloni.
16 Waaqayyo waaʼee mootii teessoo Daawit irra taaʼuutii fi waaʼee namoota magaalaa kana keessatti hafan hundaa, firoota keessan kanneen isin wajjin boojiʼamanii Baabilonitti hin geeffaminii akkana jedha;
Ngoba utsho njalo uJehova ngenkosi ehlezi esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida langabo bonke abantu abahlala kulumuzi, abafowenu abangaphumelanga ekuthunjweni kanye lani:
17 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: “Ani goraadee, beelaa fi dhaʼicha isaanitti nan erga; akka isaan akkuma ija harbuu kan tortoree namni nyaachuu hin dandeenyee taʼanis isaan nan godha.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla: Khangelani, ngizathumela phakathi kwabo inkemba, indlala, lomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ngibenze babe njengemikhiwa eyenyanyekayo, engadlekiyo ngenxa yobubi.
18 Ani goraadee, beelaa fi dhaʼichaan isaan nan ariʼa; akka isaan saboota ani itti isaan ariʼe hunda gidduutti waan abaarsaatii fi waan sodaachisaa, waan tuffiitii fi waan fafaa taʼaniif ani fuula mootummoota lafaa hundaa duratti jibbisiisoo isaan nan godha.
Ngixotshane labo ngenkemba, ngendlala, langomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ngibanikele ukuba yisesabiso kuyo yonke imibuso yomhlaba, babe yisiqalekiso, lento eyesabekayo, lokuncifelwayo, lehlazo, phakathi kwazo zonke izizwe lapho engibaxotshele khona;
19 Isaan dubbii koo, dubbii ani ammumaa amma karaa tajaajiltoota koo raajotaatiin isaanitti erge hin dhaggeeffanneetii” jedhan Waaqayyo. “Isin warri boojiʼamtanis akkasuma hin dhaggeeffanne” jedha Waaqayyo.
ngenxa yokuthi bengawalalelanga amazwi ami, itsho iNkosi, engawathumela kibo ngenceku zami abaprofethi, ngivuka ngovivi ngibathuma, kodwa kalilalelanga, itsho iNkosi.
20 Kanaafuu isin boojiʼamtoonni ani Yerusaalemii baasee gara Baabilonitti erge hundi dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼaa.
Lina-ke zwanini ilizwi leNkosi, lina lonke bathunjiweyo, engabathuma besuka eJerusalema besiya eBhabhiloni:
21 Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel waaʼee Ahaab ilma Qolaayaatii fi waaʼee Maʼaseyaa ilma Zedeqiyaa warra maqaa kootiin raajii sobaa isinitti dubbatan sanaa akkana jedha: “Ani dabarsee Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilonitti isaan kenna; innis ijuma keessan duratti isaan fixa.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, mayelana loAhabi indodana kaKolaya, lamayelana loZedekhiya indodana kaMahaseya, abaprofetha amanga kini ngebizo lami: Khangelani, ngizabanikela esandleni sikaNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, ozababulala phambi kwamehlo enu.
22 Sababii isaaniitiifis boojiʼamtoonni Yihuudaa warri biyya Baabilon jiraatan, ‘Waaqayyo akka Zedeqiyaatii fi akka Ahaab warra Nebukadnezar mootichi Baabilon ibiddaan gube sanaa si haa godhu!’ jedhanii wal abaaru.
Njalo kuzathathwa kubo isiqalekiso yibo bonke abathunjiweyo koJuda abaseBhabhiloni kuthiwe: Kungathi iNkosi ikumise njengoZedekhiya lanjengoAhabi, inkosi yeBhabhiloni eyamosa ngomlilo;
23 Isaan waan akka malee hamaa taʼe Israaʼel keessatti hojjetaniiruutii; isaan niitota ollaa isaanii wajjin ejjaniiru; waan ani akka isaan hojjetan isaanitti hin himin hojjechuudhaan maqaa kootiin soba dubbataniiru; ani waan kana nan beeka; dhugaa illee nan baʼa” jedha Waaqayyo.
ngenxa yokuthi benze ubuthutha koIsrayeli, bafeba labafazi babomakhelwane babo, baqamba amazwi angamanga ngebizo lami, engingabalayanga wona; njalo yimi engaziyo, engingumfakazi, itsho iNkosi.
24 Shemaaʼiyaa namicha Nehelaamiin akkana jedhi:
Uzakhuluma kuShemaya umNehelami usithi:
25 “Waaqayyo Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedha: Ati namoota Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan hundatti, Sefaaniyaa ilma Maʼaseyaa lubichaattii fi luboota biraa hundatti maqaa keetiin xalayaa ergiteerta. Sefaaniyaanis akkana jetteerta;
Itsho njalo iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, isithi: Ngenxa yokuthi wena uthumele izincwadi ngebizo lakho kubo bonke abantu abaseJerusalema, lakuZefaniya indodana kaMahaseya umpristi, lakubo bonke abapristi, usithi:
26 ‘Waaqayyo akka ati mana Waaqayyoo keessatti itti gaafatamaa taatuuf iddoo Yehooyaadaa luba godhee si muudeera; ati maraatuu raajii dubbatu kam iyyuu miilla isaa jirma gidduu, morma isaa immoo hudhaa sibiilaa keessa galchitee hidhuu qabda.
INkosi isikwenze ube ngumpristi esikhundleni sikaJehoyada umpristi, ukuthi libe ngababonisi bendlu yeNkosi phezu kwakhe wonke umuntu ohlanyayo ozitshaya umprofethi, ukuthi limfake esitokisini elezankosi entanyeni.
27 Yoos ati maaliif Ermiyaas namicha Anaatoot kan gidduu keessanitti raajii dubbatu sana ifachuu dhiifte ree?
Khathesi-ke, kungani ungamkhuzanga uJeremiya umAnathothi ozitshaya umprofethi kini?
28 Inni akkana jedhee dhaamsa kana gara keenya, gara Baabilonitti ergeera: Barri boojuu ni dheerata. Kanaafuu manneen ijaarradhaatii keessa jiraadhaa; biqiltuu illee dhaabadhaa ija isaa nyaadhaa.’”
Ngoba ngenxa yalokhu usethumele kithi eBhabhiloni esithi: Kuzakuba kude; yakhani izindlu, lihlale kizo, lihlanyele izivande, lidle izithelo zazo.
29 Sefaaniyaa lubichis xalayaa sana Ermiyaas raajichaaf dubbise.
UZefaniya umpristi waseyifunda lincwadi endlebeni zikaJeremiya umprofethi.
30 Kana irratti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Ermiyaas dhufe:
Laselifika ilizwi leNkosi kuJeremiya lisithi:
31 “Ergaa kana boojiʼamtoota hundatti ergi; ‘Waaqayyo waaʼee Shemaaʼiyaa namicha Nehelaam sanaa akkana jedha: Waan Shemaaʼiyaan yoo ani isa erguu baadhe iyyuu raajii isinii dubbatee akka isin soba amanattan godheef
Thumela kubo bonke abathunjiweyo usithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi ngoShemaya umNehelami: Ngenxa yokuthi uShemaya eprofethe kini, mina-ke ngingamthumanga, walenza ukuthi lithembe amanga,
32 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: ani dhugumaan Shemaaʼiyaa namicha Nehelaam sanaa fi sanyii isaa nan adaba. Inni saba kana gidduutti hambaa tokko iyyuu hin qabaatu yookaan waan gaarii ani saba kootiif godhu hin argu; inni na mormuun fincila lallabeeraatii’ jedha Waaqayyo.”
ngakho itsho iNkosi: Khangela, ngizajezisa uShemaya umNehelami kanye lenzalo yakhe; kayikuba lamuntu ozahlala phakathi kwalababantu, angaboni okuhle engizakwenzela abantu bami, itsho iNkosi, ngoba ukhulume ukuhlamuka emelene leNkosi.
