Jeremia 16
1 Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira nga kigamba nti,
2 “Haufaniri kuwana mukadzi kana kuva navanakomana kana vanasikana panzvimbo ino.”
“Towasa, kuzaalira balenzi na bawala mu kifo kino.
3 Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha, pamusoro pavanakomana navanasikana vanoberekwa munyika ino napamusoro pavakadzi vanova vanamai vavo navarume vanova madzibaba avo:
Kubanga kino Mukama ky’agamba ku balenzi n’abawala abazaalibwa mu nsi eno era ne ku bakazi ba nnyaabwe ne ku basajja ba kitaabwe.
4 “Vachafa nehosha dzakaipisisa. Havangazochemwi kana kuvigwa asi vachafanana nomupfudze uri pamusoro penyika. Vachaparara nomunondo nenzara, uye zvitunha zvavo zvichava zvokudya zveshiri dzedenga nemhuka dzepanyika.”
Balifa endwadde ez’akabi. Tebalibakungubagira wadde okuziikibwa naye balibeera ng’ebisaaniko ebisuuliddwa ku ttaka. Balizikirira na kitala era balifa njala; n’emirambo gyabwe girifuuka mmere ya binyonyi eby’omu bbanga n’ebisolo eby’omu nsiko.”
5 Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha: “Usapinda muimba mune zvokudya zvamariro: usaenda kundochema kana kuvanzwira tsitsi, nokuti ndabvisa maropafadzo norudo rwangu nengoni dzangu pavanhu ava,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Toyingira mu nnyumba we balya emmere y’olumbe, togenda kukungubaga wadde okubasaasira kubanga nziggyewo omukisa gwange n’okwagala kwange era n’okusaasira kwange ku bantu bano,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
6 “Vose, vakuru navaduku vachafa munyika ino. Havangavigwi kana kuchemwa, uye hakuna munhu achazvicheka kana kuveura musoro wake nokuda kwavo.
Bonna ab’ekitiibwa n’abakopi baakufiira mu nsi eno. Tebajja kuziikibwa wadde okukungubagirwa era tewali ajja kwesala misale wadde okumwa omutwe ku lwabwe.
7 Hakuna munhu achavapa chokudya kuti vanyarare pakuchema kwavo vakafa, hakuna kunyange baba chaivo kana mai, hakuna kana achavapa mvura yokunwa chaiyo kuti vanyarare.
Tewaliba n’omu aliwaayo mmere okuliisa abakungubagira abafiiriddwa, ne bwaliba kitaabwe oba nnyaabwe nga kwe kuli afudde; tewaliba n’omu alibawaayo wadde ekyokunywa okubakubagiza.
8 “Newe usapinda muimba inoitirwa mutambo kundogara pasi uchidya nokunwa.
Era toyingiranga mu nnyumba muli kinyumu n’otuula okulya n’okunywa.
9 Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose, Mwari weIsraeri: Ndichagumisa panzvimbo ino, muchizviona pamazuva enyu, mheremhere yokupembera nenzwi romufaro uye nenzwi romwenga nerechikomba.
Kubanga kino Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri, ky’agamba nti, “Nga weerabirako n’amaaso go, mu nnaku z’obulamu bwo, ndikomya eddoboozi ery’essanyu era n’ery’okwesiima ery’abagole omusajja ne mukyala we mu kifo kino.
10 “Paunovaudza vanhu ava izvi zvose ivo vakakubvunza vachiti ‘Jehovha aisireiko kwatiri chirevo chenjodzi yakakura kudai? Chakaipa chatakaita ndecheiko? Chivi chedu ndecheiko? Chivi chedu ndecheiko chatakatadzira Jehovha Mwari wedu?’
“Bw’oligamba abantu bino byonna ne bakubuuza nti, ‘Lwaki Mukama atutuusizaako akabi kano konna? Kibi ki kye tukoze? Musango ki gwe tuzizza eri Mukama Katonda waffe?’
11 ipapo uti kwavari, ‘Nemhaka yokuti madzibaba enyu akandisiya,’ ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, ‘vakatevera vamwe vamwari vakavashumira uye vakavanamata. Vakandisiya ini uye havana kuchengeta mirayiro yangu.
Kale bagambe nti, ‘Kubanga bakitammwe bandeka ne batakuuma mateeka gange,’ bw’ayogera Mukama, ‘ne bagoberera bakatonda abalala ne babaweereza ne babasinza. Bandeka ne batakuuma mateeka gange.
12 Asi imi makaita zvakaipa kupfuura madzibaba enyu. Tarirai kuti mumwe nomumwe wenyu anotevera sei kusindimara kwomwoyo wake wakaipa pano kuti anditeerere ini.
Era mweyisizza bubi n’okusinga bakitammwe. Laba buli omu nga bwe yeeyisa ng’akakanyaza omutima gwe ogujjudde ebibi mu kifo ky’okuŋŋondera.
13 Saka ndichakudzingai panyika ino ndichikuisai kunyika yamusina kumboziva imi kana madzibaba enyu mugondoshumira vamwe vamwari ikoko masikati nousiku, nokuti handingakunzwirei nyasha.’
Noolwekyo ndibaggya mu nsi eno ne mbateeka mu nsi mmwe gye mutamanyi wadde bakitammwe gye bataamanya, era nga muli eyo muliweereza bakatonda abalala emisana n’ekiro, era siribakwatirwa kisa.’
14 “Kunyange zvakadaro, mazuva anouya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “avasingazotizve, ‘NaJehovha mupenyu iye akabudisa vaIsraeri muIjipiti,’
“Naye ennaku zijja,” bw’ayogera Mukama. “Abantu lwe bataliddayo kwogera nti, ‘Ddala nga Katonda bw’ali omulamu eyaggya Isirayiri mu nsi y’e Misiri,’
15 asi vachati, ‘NaJehovha mupenyu, akabudisa vaIsraeri kubva munyika yokumusoro uye nokubva munyika dzose dzaakanga avadzingira.’ Nokuti ndichavadzoserazve kunyika yandakapa madzitateguru avo.
naye baligamba nti, ‘Ddala nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu eyaggya Abayisirayiri mu nsi ey’omu bukiikakkono era n’okuva mu nsi zonna gye yali abasudde.’ Kubanga ndibakomyawo mu nsi gye nawa bajjajjaabwe.
16 “Asi zvino ndichavatumira varedzi vehove vazhinji,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “vagozovabata. Mushure maizvozvo ndichatumira vavhimi vazhinji, vachavavhima pamusoro pegomo roga roga napamusoro pechikomo choga choga uye nomumapako amatombo.
“Naye kaakano leka ntumye abavubi bange,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “era bajja kubavuba. Ng’ekyo kiwedde nzija kutumya abayizzi bange, era bajja kubayigga ku buli lusozi era na buli kasozi na buli lwatika lwonna mu njazi.
17 Meso angu ari pamusoro penzira dzavo dzose; hadzina kuvanzika kwandiri, uye chivi chavo hachina kuvanzika pameso angu.
Amaaso gange galaba buli kye bakola, tebinkwekeddwa wadde obutali butuukirivu bwabwe okuunkwekebwa.
18 Ndichatsiva zvakaipa zvavo nechivi chavo, zvakapetwa kaviri, nokuti vakasvibisa nyika yangu nezvitunha zvezvifananidzo zvavo zvisina maturo, uye vakazadza nhaka yangu nezvifananidzo zvavo zvinonyangadza.”
Ndibasasula olw’obutali butuukirivu bwabwe n’olw’ekibi kyabwe emirundi ebiri, kubanga boonoonye ensi yange olw’ebintu ebitaliimu bulamu ne bajjuza omugabo gwange ebifaananyi bya bakatonda baabwe abakolerere, eby’emizizo.”
19 Imi Jehovha, simba rangu nenhare yangu, utiziro hwangu munguva yokutambudzika, ndudzi dzichauya kwamuri dzichibva kumagumo enyika, dzichiti, “Madzibaba edu akanga asina chaanacho asi vamwari venhema bedzi, izvo zvifananidzo zvisingabatsiri zvisina chakanaka chazvakavaitira.
Ayi Mukama, amaanyi gange era ekigo kyange, ekiddukiro kyange mu biro eby’okulabiramu ennaku, bannaggwanga balijja gy’oli, okuva ku nkomerero z’ensi bagambe nti, “Bakitaffe tebaalina kantu okuggyako bakatonda ab’obulimba, ebifaananyi ebikolerere ebitagasa ebitaabayamba.
20 Ko, vanhu vanozviitira vamwari vavo here? Hongu, asi havasi vamwari!”
Abantu beekolera bakatonda baabwe? Ye, naye si Katonda!
21 “Naizvozvo ndichavadzidzisa, nguva ino ndichavadzidzisa simba rangu noukuru hwangu. Ipapo vachaziva kuti zita rangu ndiJehovha.
“Noolwekyo ndibayigiriza, ku mulundi guno; ŋŋenda kubalaga amaanyi gange n’obuyinza bwange. Olwo balyoke bamanye nti erinnya lyange nze Mukama.”
