< Jeremia 11 >
1 Iri ndiro shoko rakauya kuna Jeremia richibva kuna Jehovha:
Yehova anayankhula ndi Yeremiya kuti,
2 “Inzwai mashoko esungano iyi mugoazivisa kuvanhu veJudha nokuna vanogara muJerusarema.
“Imvani mawu a pangano ili, ndipo uwawuze anthu a ku Yuda ndi a ku Yerusalemu.
3 Muvaudze kuti zvanzi naJehovha Mwari waIsraeri, ‘Akatukwa munhu asingateereri mashoko esungano iyi,
Awuze kuti Yehova, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti ‘adzakhala wotembereredwa munthu amene samvera mawu a pangano ili.
4 mashoko andakarayira madzitateguru enyu pandakavabudisa muIjipiti kubva muchoto chamatare.’ Ndakati, ‘Nditeererei mugoita zvose zvandinokurayirai, mugova vanhu vangu, ini ndigova Mwari wenyu.
Awa anali mawu amene ndinalamulira makolo anu nditawatulutsa mu Igupto, kuchoka mʼngʼanjo yamoto.’ Ine ndinati, ‘Mverani Ine ndi kuchita chilichonse chimene ndakulamulirani. Mukatero mudzakhala anthu anga ndi Ine ndidzakhala Mulungu wanu.
5 Ipapo ndichazadzisa mhiko yandakapika kumadzitateguru enyu, kuti ndichavapa nyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi,’ nyika yava yenyu nhasi.” Ndakapindura ndichiti, “Ameni, Jehovha.”
Tsono Ine ndidzakwaniritsa lumbiro lomwe ndinalumbira kwa makolo anu kuti ndidzawapatsa dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi,’ dziko lomwe inu lero mukukhalamo.” Tsono Ine ndinayankha kuti, “Ameni, Yehova.”
6 Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Paridza mashoko aya ose mumaguta eJudha nomumigwagwa yeJerusarema uchiti, ‘Inzwai mashoko esungano iyi muatevere.
Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Lengeza mawu onsewa mʼmizinda yonse ya ku Yuda ndi mʼmisewu ya mu Yerusalemu: ‘Mverani mawu a pangano ili ndi kuzitsatira.
7 Kubva panguva yandakabudisa madzitateguru enyu kubva muIjipiti kusvikira nhasi, ndakavayambira ndavayambirazve ndichiti, “Nditeererei.”
Kuyambira nthawi imene ndinatulutsa makolo anu ku Igupto mpaka lero, ndakhala ndi kuwachenjeza kawirikawiri kuti, ‘Mverani Ine.’
8 Asi havana kuteerera kana kuva nehanya; asi vakatevera kusindimara kwemwoyo yavo yakaipa. Saka ndakauyisa pamusoro pavo kutuka kwose kwesungano yandakanga ndavarayira kuti vatevere asi havana kuichengeta.’”
Koma sanamvere kapena kulabadirako. Aliyense anawumirira kuchita zoyipa za mʼmitima yawo. Ngakhale ndinawalamulira kuti asunge pangano langa koma iwo sanasunge. Choncho ndinawalanga monga ndinaneneramo.’”
9 Ipapo Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Pane rangano pakati pavanhu veJudha navanogona kundimukira navanogara muJerusarema.
Kenaka Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Anthu a ku Yuda ndi ku Yerusalemu andiwukira.
10 Vadzokera pazvakaipa zvamadzitateguru avo, avo vakaramba kuteerera mashoko angu. Vakatevera vamwe vamwari kuti vavashumire. Dzimba mbiri idzi, yaIsraeri neyaJudha dzakaputsa sungano yandakaita namadzitateguru avo.
Abwereranso ku machimo a makolo awo, amene anakana kumvera mawu anga. Akutsata milungu ina ndi kumayitumikira. Aisraeli ndi Ayuda aphwanya pangano limene ndinachita ndi makolo awo.
11 Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha, ‘Ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pavo yavasingagoni kupunyuka. Kunyange vakachema kwandiri handingavateereri.
Choncho Yehova akuti, ‘Ndidzawagwetsera mavuto amene sadzatha kuwalewa. Ngakhale adzandilirire, sindidzawamvera.
12 Maguta eJudha navanhu veJerusarema vachaenda kundodana kuna vamwari vavaipisira zvinonhuhwira, asi havazovabatsiri zvachose pavanosvikirwa nenjodzi.
Anthu a mʼmizinda ya Yuda ndi anthu a ku Yerusalemu adzapita ndi kukalirira milungu imene ankayifukizira lubani, koma milunguyo sidzawathandiza ndi pangʼono pomwe mavuto akadzafika.
13 Una vamwari vakawanda sokuwanda kwakaita maguta ako, iwe Judha; uye aritari dzamakamisa kuti mupisire zvinonhuhwira kuna mwari anonyadzisa, iye Bhaari, dzakawanda sokuwanda kwakaita migwagwa yeJerusarema.’
Iwe Yuda, uli ndi milungu yochuluka ngati chiwerengero cha mizinda yako; chiwerengero cha maguwa ansembe amene umafukizirapo lubani kwa Baala chili ngati misewu ya mu Yerusalemu.’
14 “Usanyengeterera vanhu kana kupa chikumbiro chipi zvacho kana kuvakumbirira, nokuti handizoteereri pavanodana kwandiri panguva yokutambudzika kwavo.
“Tsono iwe Yeremiya usawapempherere anthu amenewa ngakhale kuwadandaulira kapena kuwapepesera, chifukwa sindidzawamvera akadzandiyitana pa nthawi ya mavuto awo.
15 “Ko, mudiwa wangu ari kuitei mutemberi yangu, zvaari kuita mabasa ake akaipa navazhinji? Ko, nyama yakatsaurwa ingadzivisa kurohwa kwako here? Pamunoita zvakaipa zvenyu, ipapo imi mofara.”
“Kodi anthu anga okondedwa akudzachita chiyani mʼNyumba yanga? Kodi suja iwowa amachita zoyipa zambiri? Kodi mungathe kupulumuka, tsoka osakugwerani chifukwa cha nsembe zanuzo?”
16 Jehovha akati ndiwe muti womuorivhi une upenyu, une michero yakanaka yakaurungana. Asi nokutinhira kwemhepo ine simba achautungidza nomoto, uye matavi awo achavhunika.
Kale Yehova ankakutchani mtengo wa olivi wa masamba obiriwira, wokhala ndi zipatso zokongola. Koma tsopano adzawutentha ndi mkuntho wamkokomo ndipo nthambi zake zidzapserera.
17 Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, iye akakusima, atema chirevo chezvakaipa kwauri, nokuti imba yaIsraeri neimba yaJudha vakaita zvakaipa, vakanditsamwisa nokupisira Bhaari zvinonhuhwira.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, amene anakudzalani, walamula kuti mavuto akugwereni. Inu a banja la Yuda ndi a banja la Israeli munachitira Yehova zoyipa ndi kumukwiyitsa pamene munkapereka nsembe zanu kwa Baala.
18 Nokuti Jehovha akandionesa rangano yavo, ndikaiziva, nokuti panguva iyoyo akandiratidza zvavakanga vachiita.
Yehova anandiwululira ndipo ndinadziwa. Iye anatsekula maso anga kuti ndione chiwembu chawocho.
19 Ndakanga ndakaita segwayana rakapfava riri kuendeswa kundobayiwa; ndakanga ndisingazivi kuti vakanga vandirangana, vachiti, “Ngatiparadzei muti nemichero yawo; ngatimubvisei panyika yavapenyu, kuti zita rake rirege kuzorangarirwazve.”
Ndinali ngati mwana wankhosa wofatsa amene akupita naye kukamupha; sindinkadziwa kuti chiwembu chimene ankakonzekeracho chinkaloza ine. Iwo amati: “Tiyeni timuphe munthu ameneyu kuti dzina lake lisadzakumbukiridwenso.”
20 Asi imi Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, iyemi munotonga nokururama, uye munoedza mwoyo nendangariro, ngandione kutsiva kwenyu pamusoro pavo, nokuti ndakaisa mhaka yangu kwamuri.
Koma, Inu Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Inu amene mumaweruza molungama ndi kuyesa mitima ndi maganizo, lolani kuti ine ndione kuti mwawalipsira, pakuti mlandu wanga ndawupereka mʼmanja mwanu.
21 “Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha pamusoro pavarume veAnatoti vari kutsvaka kukuuraya, vachiti, ‘Regai kuprofita nezita raJehovha nokuti ungafa namaoko edu,’
“Nʼchifukwa chake Yehova akunena za anthu a ku Anatoti amene akufuna kuwononga moyo wako namanena kuti, ‘Usanenere mʼdzina la Yehova, ukatero ife tidzakupha ndi manja athu,’
22 naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose, ‘Ndichavaranga. Majaya avo achafa nomunondo, vanakomana navanasikana vavo vachafa nenzara.
koma Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, ‘Ine ndidzawalanga. Achinyamata awo adzaphedwa ndi lupanga, ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi adzafa ndi njala.
23 Hakuna kunyange mumwe achasara kwavari, nokuti ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pavarume veAnatoti mugore rokurangwa kwavo.’”
Sipadzakhala otsala ndi mmodzi yemwe, chifukwa ndidzalanga anthu a ku Anatoti chikadzafika chaka chawo cha chilango.’”
