Jeremia 25
1 Shoko rakauya kuna Jeremia pamusoro pavanhu vose veJudha mugore rechina raJehoyakimi mwanakomana waJosia mambo weJudha, iro rakanga riri gore rokutanga raNebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi.
The word that came to Ieremiah, concerning all the people of Iudah in the fourth yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah that was in the first yeere of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel:
2 Saka Jeremia muprofita akati kuvanhu vose veJudha nokuna vose vaigara muJerusarema:
The which Ieremiah the Prophet spake vnto all the people of Iudah, and to all the inhabitants of Ierusalem, saying,
3 Kwamakore makumi maviri namatatu, kubva pagore regumi namatatu raJosia mwanakomana waAmoni mambo weJudha kusvikira zuva ranhasi, shoko raJehovha ranga richiuya kwandiri uye ini ndikataura ndataurazve kwamuri, asi hamuna kuteerera.
From the thirteenth yeere of Iosiah the sonne of Amon King of Iudah, euen vnto this day (that is the three and twentieth yeere) the word of the Lord hath come vnto mee, and I haue spoken vnto you rising earely and speaking, but ye woulde not heare.
4 Uye kunyange Jehovha akatuma varanda vake kwamuri ivo vaprofita nguva nenguva, imi hamuna kuteerera kana kurereka nzeve dzenyu.
And the Lord hath sent vnto you all his seruantes the Prophets, rising early and sending them, but yee would not heare, nor encline your eares to obey.
5 Ivo vakati, “Dzokai zvino mumwe nomumwe wenyu, kubva panzira dzenyu dzakaipa nepamabasa enyu akaipa, mugogara munyika yamakapiwa naJehovha imi namadzibaba enyu nokusingaperi.
They sayde, Turne againe now euery one from his euill way, and from the wickednes of your inuentions, and ye shall dwell in the lande that the Lord hath giuen vnto you, and to your fathers for euer and euer.
6 Regai kutevera vamwe vamwari kuti muvashumire uye muvanamate; murege kunditsamwisa nezvakaitwa namaoko enyu. Ipapo handingakuitirei zvakaipa.”
And go not after other gods to serue them and to worshippe them, and prouoke me not to anger with the workes of your hands, and I will not punish you.
7 “Asi imi hamuna kunditeerera,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “uye makanditsamwisa nezvakaitwa namaoko enyu, mukaita kuti zvakaipa zvikuwirei.”
Neuerthelesse ye would not heare me, saith the Lord, but haue prouoked mee to anger with the workes of your hands to your owne hurt.
8 Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Nemhaka yokuti hamuna kuteerera mashoko angu,
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes, Because ye haue not heard my wordes,
9 ndichadana marudzi ose okumusoro uye nomuranda wangu Nebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “uye ndichavauyisa kuzorwa nenyika ino navanogaramo uye nendudzi dzose dzakavapoteredza. Ndichavaparadza zvachose uye ndichavaita chinhu chinovengwa nechinosekwa, nedongo nokusingaperi.
Beholde, I will send and take to mee all the families of the North, saith the Lord, and Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel my seruant, and will bring them against this lande, and against the inhabitantes thereof, and against all these nations rounde about, and will destroy them, and make them an astonishment and an hissing, and a continuall desolation.
10 Ndichabvisa pakati pavo manzwi okupembera nomufaro, namanzwi emwenga neechikomba, nenzwi reguyo nechiedza chemwenje.
Moreouer I will take from them the voyce of mirth and the voyce of gladnesse, the voyce of the bridegrome and the voyce of the bride, the noise of the milstones, and the light of the candle.
11 Nyika ino yose ichava dongo, uye marudzi aya achashandira mambo weBhabhironi kwemakore makumi manomwe.
And this whole land shalbe desolate, and an astonishment, and these nations shall serue the King of Babel seuentie yeeres.
12 “Asi kana makore makumi manomwe apera, ndicharova mambo weBhabhironi norudzi rwake, nenyika yavaBhabhironi, pamusoro pemhosva yavo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “uye ndichaiita dongo nokusingaperi.
And when the seuentie yeres are accomplished, I will visite the King of Babel and that nation, saith the Lord, for their iniquities, euen the land of the Caldeans, and will make it a perpetuall desolation,
13 Ndichauyisa pamusoro penyika iyo zvinhu zvose zvandakataura pamusoro payo, zvose zvakanyorwa mubhuku iri nezvakaprofitwa naJeremia pamusoro pendudzi dzose.
And I will bring vpon that lande all my wordes which I haue pronounced against it, euen all that is written in this booke, which Ieremiah hath prophecied against all nations.
14 Ivo pachavo vachatapwa nendudzi zhinji namadzimambo makuru; ini ndichavaripira zvakaenzana nokubata kwavo uye namabasa emaoko avo.”
For many nations, and great Kings shall euen serue themselues of them: thus will I recompense them according to their deedes, and according to the workes of their owne handes.
15 Izvi ndizvo zvakataurwa naJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, kwandiri: “Tora kubva muruoko rwangu mukombe uyu wakazara newaini yokutsamwa kwangu unwise ndudzi dzose dzandinokutuma kwadziri.
For thus hath the Lord God of Israel spoken vnto me, Take the cuppe of wine of this mine indignation at mine hand, and cause all the nations, to whome I sende thee, to drinke it.
16 Kana vachinge vainwa vachadzedzereka nokupenga nokuda kwomunondo wandichatuma pakati pavo.”
And they shall drinke, and be moued and be mad, because of the sworde that I will sende among them.
17 Saka ndakatora mukombe muruoko rwaJehovha ndikaita kuti ndudzi dzose dzaakandituma kwadziri dzinwe:
Then tooke I the cup at the Lordes hand, and made all people to drinke, vnto whome the Lord had sent me:
18 Jerusarema namaguta eJudha, namadzimambo, namachinda aro, kuti aitwe matongo, chinhu chinovengwa nechinosekesa, nechinotukwa, sezvaakaita iye nhasi;
Euen Ierusalem, and the cities of Iudah, and the Kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them desolate, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse, as appeareth this day:
19 Faro mambo weIjipiti, navaranda vake, namachinda ake uye navanhu vake vose,
Pharaoh also, King of Egypt, and his seruants, and his princes, and all his people:
20 navatorwa vose variko; namadzimambo ose eUzi; namadzimambo ose eFiristia (neavo veAshikeroni, neGaza, neEkironi, navanhu vakasiyiwa kuAshidhodhi);
And all sortes of people, and all the Kings of the lande of Vz: and all the Kings of the lande of the Philistims, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod:
21 Edhomu neMoabhu neAmoni;

22 namadzimambo ose eTire neSidhoni; namadzimambo emuzviwi mhiri kwegungwa;
And all the Kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the Kings of the Yles, that are beyonde the Sea,
23 neDhedhani, neTema, neBhuzi navose vari kunzvimbo dziri kure;

25 namadzimambo ose eZimuri, neEramu neFiristia,

26 namadzimambo ose okumusoro vepedyo nevokure, mumwe achitevera mumwe, ushe hwose huri pamusoro penyika. Shure kwaivava vose, mambo weSheshaki achazoinwawo.
And all the Kings of the North, farre and neere one to another, and all the kingdomes of the worlde, which are vpon the earth, and the king of Sheshach shall drinke after them.
27 “Ipapo uvaudze kuti, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose, Mwari weIsraeri: Inwai mudhakwe, murutse, muwe, uye murege kuzomukazve nokuda kwomunondo wandichatuma pakati penyu.’
Therefore say thou vnto them, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Drinke and bee drunken, and spewe and fall, and rise no more, because of the sworde, which I will sende among you.
28 Asi kana vakaramba kutora mukombe muruoko rwako kuti vamwe, uti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: Munofanira kuinwa!
But if they refuse to take the cuppe at thine hande to drinke, then tell them, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Ye shall certainely drinke.
29 Tarirai, ndava kutanga kuuyisa njodzi pamusoro peguta rinodanwa neZita rangu, ko, imi mungarega kurangwa here? Hamungaregi kurangwa nokuti ndava kudana munondo pamusoro pavose vagere panyika, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.’
For loe, I beginne to plague the citie, where my Name is called vpon, and shoulde you goe free? Ye shall not goe quite: for I will call for a sword vpon al the inhabitants of the earth, saith the Lord of hostes.
30 “Zvino chiprofita mashoko aya ose pamusoro pavo uchiti: “‘Jehovha achaomba ari kumusoro; achatinhira ari pachigaro chake chitsvene uye achaomba zvikuru pamusoro penyika yake. Achadanidzira sezvinoita vanotsika mazambiringa, achidanidzira kuna vose vagere panyika.
Therefore prophecie thou against them al these words, and say vnto them, The Lord shall roare from aboue, and thrust out his voyce from his holy habitation: he shall roare vpon his habitation, and crie aloude, as they that presse the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 Bope richaunga kusvikira kumagumo enyika, nokuti Jehovha achapa ndudzi mhosva; achauyisa kutonga pamusoro pamarudzi ose avanhu uye achaisa vakaipa kumunondo,’” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
The sounde shall come to the endes of the earth: for the Lord hath a controuersie with the nations, and will enter into iudgement with all flesh, and he will giue them that are wicked, to the sworde, saith the Lord.
32 Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Tarirai, njodzi iri kupararira ichibva kuno rumwe rudzi ichienda kuno rumwe; dutu guru rasimuka richibva kumagumo enyika.”
Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Behold, a plague shall goe foorth from nation to nation, and a great whirlewinde shalbe raised vp from the coastes of the earth,
33 Panguva iyo vakaurayiwa naJehovha vachava pose pose vachibva kuno mumwe mugumo wenyika kusvikira kuno mumwe. Havangachemwi kana kuunganidzwa, kana kuvigwa, asi vachava somupfudze uri pamusoro penyika.
And the slaine of the Lord shall be at that day, from one ende of the earth, euen vnto the other ende of the earth: they shall not bee mourned, neither gathered nor buried, but shalbe as the dongue vpon the grounde.
34 Chemai uye muungudze, imi vafudzi; umburukai muguruva, imi vatungamiri veboka. Nokuti nguva yokuurayiwa kwenyu yasvika; muchawa mugopwanyika somudziyo wakanaka wevhu.
Howle, ye shepherdes, and crie, and wallowe your selues in the ashes, ye principall of the flocke: for your dayes of slaughter are accomplished, and of your dispersion, and ye shall fall like precious vessels.
35 Vafudzi vachashayiwa kwokutizira, uye vakuru veboka vachashayiwa kwokutizira.
And the flight shall faile from the shepherdes, and the escaping from the principall of the flocke.
36 Inzwai kuchema kwavafudzi, kuungudza kwavatungamiri veboka, nokuti Jehovha ari kuparadza mafuro avo.
A voyce of the crye of the shepherdes, and an howling of the principall of the flocke shalbe heard: for the Lord hath destroyed their pasture.
37 Mafuro ano runyararo achaparadzwa nokuda kwokutsamwa kunotyisa kwaJehovha.
And the best pastures are destroyed because of the wrath and indignation of the Lord.
38 Seshumba, achabva panzvimbo yake yokuvanda, uye nyika yavo ichaparadzwa nokuda kwomunondo womumanikidzi, uye nokuda kwokutsamwa kunotyisa kwaJehovha.
He hath forsaken his couert, as the lyon: for their land is waste, because of the wrath of the oppressor, and because of ye wrath of his indignatio.
