Jeremia 2
1 Shoko raJehovha rakauya kwandiri richiti,
Yehova anandiwuza kuti,
2 “Enda unoparidza munzeve dzeJerusarema uchiti: “‘Ndinorangarira kunamata kwouduku hwako, kuti somwenga waindida sei uye uchinditevera nomukati merenje, uye nomunyika isina munhu anogaramo.
“Pita ukalengeze kwa anthu a ku Yerusalemu kuti Yehova akuti, “‘Ine ndikukumbukira mmene umakhulupirikira pa unyamata wako, mmene unkandikondera ngati momwe amachitira mkwatibwi, mmene unkanditsata mʼchipululu muja; mʼdziko losadzalamo kanthu.
3 Israeri akanga ari mutsvene kuna Jehovha, ari chibereko chokutanga chokukohwa kwake; vose vakanga vachimudya vaipiwa mhosva, uye njodzi yakavawira,’” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Israeli anali wopatulika wa Yehova, anali ngati zipatso zake zoyamba kucha pa nthawi yokolola; onse amene anamuzunza anapezeka kuti ndi olakwa ndipo mavuto anawagwera,’” akutero Yehova.
4 Inzwai shoko raJehovha imi imba yaJakobho, nemi mose vorudzi rweimba yaIsraeri.
Imvani mawu a Yehova, inu zidzukulu za Yakobo, inu mafuko onse a Israeli.
5 Zvanzi naJehovha: “Madzibaba enyu akawana mhosva yei kwandiri, zvavakaenda kure neni? Vakatevera zvifananidzo zvisina maturo ivo vakava vasina maturo pachavo.
Yehova akuti, “Kodi makolo anu anandipeza nʼcholakwa chanji, kuti andithawe? Iwo anatsata milungu yachabechabe, nawonso nʼkusanduka achabechabe.
6 Havana kubvunza kuti, ‘Jehovha aripiko, iye akatibudisa kubva munyika yeIjipiti akatitungamirira nomugwenga risina miti, nomunyika yamarenje namakoronga, iyo nyika yakaoma uye yerima, nyika isina munhu anofambamo uye isina munhu anogaramo?’
Iwo sanafunse nʼkomwe kuti, ‘Kodi Yehova ali kuti, amene anatitulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto natitsogolera mʼchipululu mʼdziko lowuma ndi lokumbikakumbika, mʼdziko lopanda mvula ndi la mdima, dziko limene munthu sadutsamo ndipo simukhala munthu aliyense?’
7 Ndakakupinzai munyika yakaorera kuti mudye zvibereko zvayo nezvakanaka zvayo. Asi makasvika mukasvibisa nyika yangu, mukaita nhaka yangu kuti ive chinhu chinonyangadza.
Ndinakufikitsani ku dziko lachonde kuti mudye zipatso zake ndi zabwino zake zina. Koma inu mutafika munaliyipitsa dziko langa ndi kusandutsa cholowa changa kukhala chonyansa.
8 Vaprista havana kubvunza kuti, ‘Jehovha aripiko?’ Vakanga vachifambisa murayiro havana kundiziva; vatungamiri vakandimukira. Vaprofita vakaprofita naBhaari, vachitevera zvifananidzo zvisina maturo.
Ansembe nawonso sanafunse kuti, ‘Yehova ali kuti?’ Iwo amene amaphunzitsa malamulo sanandidziwe; atsogoleri anandiwukira. Aneneri ankanenera mʼdzina la Baala, ndi kutsatira mafano achabechabe.
9 “Naizvozvo ndinokupai mhosva zvakare,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Ndichapazve mhosva vana vavana venyu.
“Chifukwa chake Ine ndidzakuyimbaninso mlandu,” akutero Yehova. “Ndipo ndidzayimbanso mlandu zidzukulu zanu.
10 Yambukirai kumiganhu yeKitimi muone, tumai vanhu kuKedhari mugonyatsocherechedza; muone kana pakambova nechimwe chinhu chakadai:
Pitani kumadzulo ku chilumba cha Kitimu, ndipo mukaone, tumizani anthu ku Kedara kuti akafufuze bwino; ndipo muona kuti zinthu zoterezi sizinachitikepo nʼkale lomwe:
11 Ko, rudzi rwakambotsinhanisa vamwari varwo here? Uye havasi vamwari zvachose. Asi vanhu vangu vakatsinhanisa kukudzwa kwavo nezvifananidzo zvisina maturo.
Kodi ulipo mtundu wa anthu uliwonse umene unasinthapo milungu yake? (Ngakhale kuti si milungu nʼkomwe). Koma anthu anga asinthitsa Mulungu wawo waulemerero ndi mafano achabechabe.
12 Haiwa, imi matenga, shamiswai nechinhu ichi, uye mudedere nokutya kukuru,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Inu mayiko akumwamba, dabwani ndi zimenezi, ndipo njenjemerani ndi mantha aakulu,” akutero Yehova.
13 “Vanhu vangu vakaita zvakaipa zviviri: Vakandisiya ini, tsime remvura mhenyu, vakazvicherera zvirongo zvisingachengeti mvura.
“Popeza anthu anga achita machimo awiri: Andisiya Ine kasupe wa madzi a moyo, ndi kukadzikumbira zitsime zawo, zitsime zongʼaluka, zomwe sizingathe kusunga madzi.
14 Ko, Israeri muranda here, kana nhapwa pakuberekwa? Nemhaka yeiko apambwa zvino?
Israeli si wantchito kapena kapolo wobadwira mʼnyumba, ayi. Nanga nʼchifukwa chiyani amuwononga chotere?
15 Shumba dzakaomba; dzikanguruma kwaari. Dzakaparadza nyika yake; maguta ake akapiswa uye haachina vanhu.
Adani ake abangulira ndi kumuopseza ngati mikango. Dziko lake analisandutsa bwinja; mizinda yake anayitentha popanda wokhalamo.
16 Uyezve, vanhu veNofi neveTapanesi vakaveura musoro wako.
Ndiponso Aigupto a ku Mefisi ndi a ku Tapanesi akuphwanyani mitu.
17 Ko, hauna kuzvivigira izvozvo pachako here pawakasiya Jehovha Mwari wako paakanga achikutungamirira munzira?
Zimenezitu zakuchitikirani chifukwa munasiya Yehova Mulungu wanu pamene Iye ankakutsogolerani pa njira yanu?
18 Zvino, unoendereiko kuIjipiti kundonwa mvura inobva muShihori? Uye unodireiko kuenda kuAsiria kundonwa mvura inobva murwizi?
Tsopano mudzapindula chiyani mukapita ku Igupto, kukamwa madzi a mu Sihori? Ndipo mudzapindulanji mukapita ku Asiriya, kukamwa madzi a mu mtsinje wa Yufurate?
19 Zvakaipa zvako zvichakuranga; kudzokera shure kwako kuchakutuka. Rangarira uye uyeuke zvino kuti zvakaipa sei uye zvinovava sei kwauri, ukange wasiya Jehovha Mwari wako, uye usingandityi,” ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Kuyipa kwanuko kudzakulangani; kubwerera mʼmbuyo kwanuko kudzakutsutsani. Tsono ganizirani bwino, popeza ndi chinthu choyipa kundisiya Ine Yehova Mulungu wanu; ndi chinthu chowawa ndithu kusandiopa Ine Mulungu wanu. Akutero Ambuye Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
20 “Wakavhuna joko rako kare kare uye wakadambura makashu ako; ukati, ‘Handidi kukushumirai!’ Zvirokwazvo, pamusoro pechikomo chirefu choga choga, uye pasi pomuti woga woga wakapfumvutira, wakarara pasi pawo sechifeve.
“Kuyambira kalekale inu munathyola goli lanu ndi kudula msinga zanu; munanena kuti, ‘Sitidzakutumikirani!’ Ndithudi, inu mwakhala ngati mkazi wachiwerewere. Mukupembedza milungu ina pa phiri lililonse lalitali ndiponso pansi pa mtengo uliwonse wa masamba ambiri.
21 Ndakanga ndakusima somuzambiringa wakanakisa, uri mbeu kwayo inovimbika. Ko, zvino wakazondishandukira sei ukava muzambiringa webundo wakaora?
Ine ndinakudzala iwe ngati mtengo wampesa wosankhika; unali mpesa wabwino kwambiri ndi wodalirika. Nanga nʼchifukwa chiyani wasanduka mpesa wachabechabe wonga wa kutchire?
22 Kunyange ukazvishambidza nesoda uchishandisa sipo yakawanda, gwapa remhosva yako rinoramba riri mberi kwangu,” ndizvo zvinotaura Ishe Jehovha.
Ngakhale utasamba ndi soda kapena kusambira sopo wambiri, kuthimbirira kwa machimo ako kumaonekabe pamaso panga,” akutero Ambuye Yehova.
23 “Unoreva sei, uchiti, ‘Handina kusvibiswa; handina kutevera Bhaari’? Tarisa zvawakaita mumupata; funga zvawakaita. Iwe uri ngamera yehadzi inomhanya apa nepapo,
“Iwe ukunena bwanji kuti, ‘Ine sindinadziyipitse; sindinatsatire Abaala’? Takumbukira mmene unkandichimwira mʼchigwa muja; zindikira bwino zomwe wachita. Iwe uli ngati ngamira yayikazi yaliwiro yomangothamanga uku ndi uku,
24 uri mbizi yakarovedzwa mugwenga, inofembedza mhepo mukushuva kwayo; ndiani angaidzora pakupfumvura kwayo? Mukono upi noupi unoitevera haufaniri kuzvinetesa; panguva yokusangana uchaiwana.
wakhala ngati mbidzi yozolowera mʼchipululu, yonka ninunkhiza pa nthawi yachisika. Ndani angayiretse chilakolako chakecho? Mphongo iliyonse yoyikhumba sidzavutika. Pa nthawi yachisika chakecho mphongoyo idzayipeza.
25 Usamhanya kusvikira tsoka dzako dzisisina shangu nehuro yako yava nenyota. Asi iwe wakati, ‘Hazvibatsiri! Ndinoda vamwari vokumwe, uye ndinofanira kuvatevera.’
Iwe usathamange, nsapato zingakuthere kuphazi ndi kukhosi kwako kuwuma ndi ludzu. Koma unati, ‘Zamkutu! Ine ndimakonda milungu yachilendo, ndipo ndidzayitsatira.’
26 “Sokunyadziswa kwembavha yabatwa, saizvozvo imba yaIsraeri yanyadziswa, ivo namadzimambo avo uye namachinda avo, vaprista vavo navaprofita vavo.
“Monga momwe mbala imachitira manyazi pamene yagwidwa, moteronso nyumba ya Israeli idzachita manyazi; Aisraeliwo, mafumu ndi akuluakulu awo, ansembe ndi aneneri awo.
27 Vanoti kudanda, ‘Ndiwe baba vangu,’ uye kuibwe, ‘Ndiwe wakandibereka.’ Vakandifuratira ini asi zviso zvavo hazvina, nyamba pavanenge vava munhamo, vanoti kwandiri, ‘Uyai mutiponese!’
Iwo amawuza mtengo kuti, ‘Iwe ndiwe abambo athu,’ ndipo amawuza mwala kuti, ‘Iwe ndiye amene unatibala.’ Iwo andifulatira Ine, ndipo safuna kundiyangʼana; Koma akakhala pa mavuto amati, ‘Bwerani mudzatipulumutse!’
28 Ko, zvino vamwari vamakazviitira varipi? Ngavauye kana vachigona kukuponesai pamunenge mava munhamo! Nokuti muna vamwari vakawanda kupfuura maguta amunawo, imi Judha.
Nanga ili kuti milungu yanu imene munadzipangira nokha? Ibweretu ngati ingathe kukupulumutsani pamene muli pamavuto! Inu anthu a ku Yuda, milungu yanu ndi yambiri kuchuluka kwake ngati mizinda yanu.
29 “Seiko muchindipa mhosva? Imi mose makandimukira,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
“Kodi mukundizengeranji mlandu? Nonse mwandiwukira,” akutero Yehova.
30 “Ndakaranga vana venyu pasina; havana kuteerera kurangwa. Munondo wenyu wakamedza vaprofita, kufanana neshumba inoparadza.
“Ine ndinalanga anthu ako popanda phindu; iwo sanaphunzirepo kanthu. Monga mkango wolusa, lupanga lanu lapha aneneri anu.
31 “Haiwa, imi vechizvarwa ichi, rangarirai Shoko raJehovha rinoti: “Ndanga ndiri renje kuna Israeri here kana nyika yerima guru? Ko, vanhu vangu vanotaurireiko vachiti, ‘Takasununguka kuenda kwatada; hatichazouyizve kwamuri?’
“Inu anthu a mʼbado uno, ganizirani bwino mawu a Yehova: “Kodi Ine ndinakhalapo ngati chipululu kwa Israeli kapena ngati dziko la mdima wandiweyani? Chifukwa chiyani anthu anga akunena kuti, ‘Ife tili ndi ufulu omayendayenda; sitidzabweranso kwa Inu’?
32 Ko, murandakadzi angakanganwa zvishongo zvake here, nomwenga angakanganwa nguo dzake dzomuchato here? Asi vanhu vangu vakandikanganwa ini, mazuva asingaverengeki.
Kodi namwali amayiwala zokongoletsera zake, kapena kuyiwala zovala zake za ukwati? Komatu anthu anga andiyiwala masiku osawerengeka.
33 Mune ruzivo rwakadii pakutevera rudo! Kunyange vakadzi vakaipisisa vangadzidza kubva panzira dzenyu.
Mumadziwa bwino njira zopezera zibwenzi! Choncho ngakhale akazi oyipa omwe mumawaphunzitsa njira zanu.
34 Panguo dzako vanhu vanowanapo ropa ravarombo vasina mhaka, kunyange usina kuvabata vachipaza. Asi kunyange zvakadaro
Ngakhale pa zovala zako anthu amapezapo magazi a anthu osauka osalakwa. Anthuwo simunawapeze akuthyola nyumba. Komabe ngakhale zinthu zili chomwechi,
35 unoti, ‘Handina mhosva; uye haana kunditsamwira.’ Asi ndichatema mutongo wangu pauri nokuti unoti, ‘Handina kutadza.’
inu mukunena kuti, ‘Ndife osalakwa, sadzatikwiyira.’ Ndidzakuyimbani mlandu chifukwa mukunena kuti, ‘Ife sitinachimwe.’
36 Ko, unofambireiko pose pose zvakadai, uchishandura nzira dzako? Iwe uchagumburwa neIjipiti, sezvawakaitwa neAsiria.
Chifukwa chiyani mukunkabe nimusinthasintha njira zanu? Aigupto adzakukhumudwitsani monga momwe Asiriya anakuchititsani manyazi.
37 Uchabvawo panzvimbo iyoyo wakaisa maoko ako pamusoro pako, nokuti Jehovha akaramba vose vaunovimba navo; iwe hauchazobatsirwi navo.
Mudzachokanso kumeneko manja ali kunkhongo. Popeza Ine Yehova ndawakana anthu amene munkawadalira, choncho sadzakuthandizani konse.
