< Jeremia 13 >
1 Zvakanzi naJehovha kwandiri: “Enda unotenga bhanhire romucheka urisunge muchiuno chako, asi usarege richipinda mvura,”
2 Saka ndakatenga bhanhire, sezvandakarayirwa naJehovha, ndokurisunga muchiuno changu.
3 Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakauya kwandiri kechipiri richiti,
4 “Tora bhanhire rawakatenga, rawakasunga muchiuno chako uende iye zvino kuPerati undoriviga ikoko mumukaha wamatombo.”
5 Saka ndakaenda ndikandoriviga paPerati sezvandakaudzwa naJehovha.
6 Mazuva mazhinji akati apfuura Jehovha akati kwandiri, “Chienda zvino kuPerati undotora bhanhire randakati uvigeko.”
7 Naizvozvo ndakaenda kuPerati ndokufukunura bhanhire ndokuritora, uye risingachabatsiri zvachose.
8 Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakauya kwandiri, richiti,
9 “Zvanzi naJehovha: ‘Nenzira imwe cheteyo ndichaodza kuzvikudza kweJudha nokuzvikudza kukuru kweJerusarema.
10 Vanhu ava vakaipa, vanoramba kunzwa mashoko angu, vanotevera kusindimara kwemwoyo yavo uye vanoenda kuna vamwe vamwari kuti vavashumire uye vavanamate, vachafanana nebhanhire iri, risingabatsiri chose!
11 Nokuti sebhanhire rinosungwa muchiuno saizvozvo ndakasungira imba yose yaIsraeri neimba yose yaJudha kwandiri,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, ‘kuti vave vanhu vemukurumbira wangu, kurumbidzwa kwangu nokukudzwa kwangu. Asi havana kuteerera.’
12 “Uti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri: Hombodo imwe neimwe yedehwe yewaini inofanira kuzadzwa newaini.’ Zvino kana vakati kwauri, ‘Ko, isu hatizivi here kuti hombodo imwe neimwe yedehwe yewaini inofanira kuzadzwa newaini?’
13 ipapo uvaudze kuti, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha: Ndichadhakisa vose vanogara munyika ino, pamwe chete namadzimambo anogara pachigaro choushe chaDhavhidhi, navaprista navaprofita navose vanogara muJerusarema.
14 Ndichavabonderedza mumwe kuno mumwe, madzibaba navanakomana saizvozvo, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. Handingabvumiri tsitsi kana ngoni dzangu kuti zvindidzivise kuvaparadza.’”
15 Inzwai, rerekai nenzeve dzenyu kwandiri, musazvikudza, nokuti Jehovha ataura.
16 Rumbidzai Jehovha Mwari wenyu asati auyisa rima, makumbo enyu asati agumburwa pamakomo erima. Munotarisira chiedza, asi iye achachishandura kuti chive mumvuri worufu, uye achachiita rima guru.
17 Asi kana musingateereri, ndichachema pakavanda nokuda kwokuzvikudza kwenyu; Meso angu achachema zvikuru, achiyerera misodzi, nokuti boka ramakwai aJehovha richaendeswa kuutapwa.
18 Uti kuna mambo nokuna mai vamambo, “Burukai pazvigaro zvenyu zvoushe, nokuti korona dzenyu dzokukudzwa dzichawira pasi kubva pamisoro yenyu.”
19 Maguta okuNegevhi achazarirwa, uye hakuna munhu achaazarura. VaJudha vose vachaendeswa kuutapwa, vachaendeswa kure zvachose.
20 Simudza meso ako uone avo vanobva nechokumusoro. Ko, boka ramakwai rawakapiwa kuti urichengete riripi, iwo makwai awaizvirumbidza nawo?
21 Uchati kudiniko kana Jehovha achiisa pamusoro pako avo vawakadzidzisa seshamwari dzako dzakasarudzika? Haungarwadziwi zvikuru here, somukadzi osununguka mwana?
22 Zvino kana ukazvibvunza pachako, uchiti: “Sei izvi zvaitika kwandiri?” zvaitika nokuda kwezvivi zvako zvizhinji, kuti nguo dzako dzabvarurwa, uye muviri wako ukasabatwa zvakanaka.
23 Ko, muEtiopia angashandura ganda rake here, kana ingwe mavara ayo? Saizvozvowo imi hamungagoni kuita zvakanaka, imi makarovedzera kuita zvakaipa.
24 “Ndichakuparadzirai sehundi inopepereswa nemhepo yomugwenga.
25 Uyu ndiwo mugove wako, ndicho chikamu chandakakutemera,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “nokuti wakandikanganwa ukavimba navamwari venhema.
26 Ndichafukura nguo dzako pamberi pako, kuti kunyadziswa kwako kuonekwe,
27 upombwe hwako nokufemhedza kworuchiva rwako, iko kufeva kwako kusina nyadzi! Ndakaona mabasa ako anonyangadza awaiita pamusoro pezvikomo nomumunda. Une nhamo, iwe Jerusarema! Ucharamba usina kuchena kusvikira rinhiko?”
