1 Mugore rechina raJehoyakimi mwanakomana waJosia mambo weJudha, shoko iri rakauya kuna Jeremia richibva kuna Jehovha, richiti,
Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakhimi, indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, lelilizwi lafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini, lisithi:
2 “Tora rugwaro rwakapetwa unyoremo mashoko ose andakataura kwauri pamusoro peIsraeri, napamusoro peJudha nedzimwe ndudzi dzose kubvira panguva yandakatanga kutaura kwauri panguva yokutonga kwaJosia kusvikira iye zvino.
Zithathele umqulu wogwalo, ubhale kiwo wonke amazwi engiwakhulume kuwe ngoIsrayeli langoJuda langazo zonke izizwe, kusukela ngosuku lokukhuluma kwami kuwe, kusukela ensukwini zikaJosiya, kuze kube lamuhla.
3 Zvimwe vanhu veJudha vakanzwa pamusoro penjodzi imwe neimwe yandakaronga kuisa pamusoro pavo, vangadzoka mumwe nomumwe wavo kubva pazvakaipa zvake; ipapo ndichavakanganwira zvakaipa zvavo nechivi chavo.”
Mhlawumbe abendlu kaJuda bazakuzwa bonke ububi engicabanga ukubenza kubo; ukuze baphenduke, ngulowo lalowo endleleni yakhe embi, ukuze ngithethelele ububi babo lesono sabo.
4 Saka Jeremia akadana Bharuki mwanakomana waNeria, naJeremia, paaimuverengera mashoko ose akanga ataurwa naJehovha kwaari, Bharuki ainge achianyora murugwaro rwakapetwa.
UJeremiya wasebiza uBharukhi indodana kaNeriya; uBharukhi wasebhala okuvela emlonyeni kaJeremiya, wonke amazwi eNkosi eyayiwakhulume kuye, emqulwini wogwalo.
5 Ipapo Jeremia akataurira Bharuki kuti, “Ini ndakadziviswa, handigoni kuenda kutemberi yaJehovha.
UJeremiya waselaya uBharukhi esithi: Ngivinjelwe, kangilakungena endlini yeNkosi.
6 Saka iwe enda kuimba yaJehovha pazuva rokutsanya undoverengera vanhu mashoko aJehovha awakanyora murugwaro rwakapetwa ini ndichikutaurira. Uverengere vanhu vose veJudha vanouya vachibva kumaguta avo.
Ngakho hamba wena, ufunde emqulwini owubhalileyo, kuvela emlonyeni wami, amazwi eNkosi endlebeni zabantu endlini yeNkosi ngosuku lokuzila ukudla; uwafunde futhi endlebeni zakhe wonke uJuda abavela emizini yabo.
7 Zvimwe vanganyengetera kuna Jehovha uye mumwe nomumwe wavo akadzoka kubva panzira dzake dzakaipa, nokuti kutsamwa nehasha dzakarehwa naJehovha pamusoro pavanhu ava kukuru.”
Mhlawumbe ukuncenga kwabo kuzakuwa phambi kweNkosi, baphenduke, ngulowo lalowo endleleni yakhe embi; ngoba lukhulu ulaka lentukuthelo iNkosi ekukhulume kulababantu.
8 Bharuki mwanakomana waNeria akaita zvose zvaakataurirwa nomuprofita Jeremia kuti aite; akaverenga mashoko aJehovha kubva murugwaro rwakapetwa, ari patemberi yaJehovha.
UBharukhi indodana kaNeriya wasesenza njengakho konke uJeremiya umprofethi ayemlaye khona, efunda egwalweni amazwi eNkosi endlini yeNkosi.
9 Mumwedzi wepfumbamwe wegore rechishanu raJehoyakimi mwanakomana waJosia mambo weJudha, nguva yokutsanya pamberi paJehovha yakadanidzirwa kuvanhu vose muJerusarema navose vakanga vabva kumaguta eJudha.
Kwasekuthi emnyakeni wesihlanu kaJehoyakhimi, indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, ngenyanga yesificamunwemunye, bamemezela ukuzila ukudla phambi kweNkosi, bonke abantu eJerusalema, labantu bonke abavela emizini yakoJuda eJerusalema.
10 Bharuki akaverengera vanhu vose mashoko aJeremia aiva murugwaro rwakapetwa, ari mumba maJehovha, mukamuri raGemaria mwanakomana waShafani munyori, raiva muruvazhe rwokumusoro pamuromo weSuo Idzva retemberi yaJehovha.
UBharukhi wasefunda egwalweni amazwi kaJeremiya endlini yeNkosi, ekamelweni likaGemariya, indodana kaShafani, umbhali, egumeni elingaphezulu, emnyango wesango elitsha lendlu yeNkosi, endlebeni zabantu bonke.
11 Mikaya mwanakomana waGemaria, mwanakomana waShafani, akati anzwa mashoko ose aJehovha aibva murugwaro rwakapetwa,
UMikhaya, indodana kaGemariya, indodana kaShafani, wasesizwa wonke amazwi eNkosi avela kulolugwalo,
12 akaburuka akaenda kukamuri romunyori mumuzinda wamambo, makanga mugere machinda ose, aiti: Erishama munyori, Dheraya mwanakomana waShemaya, Erinatani mwanakomana waAkibhori, Gemaria mwanakomana waShafani, Zedhekia mwanakomana waHanania, nemamwe machinda ose.
wehlela endlini yenkosi, ekamelweni lombhali; khangela-ke, zonke iziphathamandla zazihlezi lapho, uElishama umbhali, loDelaya indodana kaShemaya, loElinathani indodana kaAkhibhori, loGemariya indodana kaShafani, loZedekhiya indodana kaHananiya, leziphathamandla zonke.
13 Mushure mokunge Mikaya avaudza zvose zvaakanga anzwa Bharuki achiverengera vanhu kubva murugwaro rwakapetwa,
UMikhaya wasebatshela wonke amazwi ayewezwile, lapho uBharukhi efunda egwalweni endlebeni zabantu.
14 machinda ose akatuma Jehudhi mwanakomana waNetamia, mwanakomana waSheremia, mwanakomana waKushi, kundoti kuna Bharuki, “Tora rugwaro rwakapetwa rwawaverengera vanhu, ugouya kuno.” Saka Bharuki mwanakomana waNeria akaenda kwavari norugwaro rwakapetwa muruoko rwake.
Zonke iziphathamandla zasezithuma uJehudi, indodana kaNethaniya, indodana kaShelemiya, indodana kaKushi, kuBharukhi, zisithi: Umqulu ofunde kuwo endlebeni zabantu, uthathe ngesandla sakho uze. Ngakho uBharukhi indodana kaNeriya wathatha umqulu ngesandla sakhe, waya kuzo.
15 Ivo vakati kwaari, “Tapota, gara pasi utiverengerewo.” Saka Bharuki akavaverengera.
Zasezisithi kuye: Ake uhlale phansi, uwufunde endlebeni zethu. UBharukhi wasefunda endlebeni zazo.
16 Vakati vanzwa mashoko ose aya, vakatarisana vachitya ndokuti kuna Bharuki, “Tinofanira kuzivisa mashoko ose aya kuna mambo.”
Kwasekusithi sezizwile wonke amazwi, zethukile, ngulowo lalowo ekhangele kumakhelwane wakhe, zathi kuBharukhi: Sizayitshela isibili inkosi wonke amazwi la.
17 Ipapo vakabvunza Bharuki, vakati, “Tiudze, wakanyora sei izvi zvose? Jeremia ndiye akakutaurira here?”
Zasezimbuza uBharukhi zisithi: Ake usitshele, wawabhala njani wonke lamazwi emlonyeni wakhe?
18 Bharuki akapindura akati, “Hongu, akanditaurira mashoko ose aya, ini ndikaanyora neingi murugwaro rwakapetwa.”
UBharukhi wasesithi kuzo: Wangifundela wonke lamazwi evela emlonyeni wakhe, ngawabhala egwalweni ngeyinki.
19 Ipapo machinda akati kuna Bharuki, “Iwe naJeremia endai munovanda. Ngakurege kuva nomunhu anoziva kwamunenge muri.”
Iziphathamandla zasezisithi kuBharukhi: Hamba ucatshe, wena loJeremiya, kakungabi lamuntu owaziyo lapho elikhona.
20 Vakati vaisa rugwaro rwakapetwa mukamuri yomunyori Erishama, vakaenda kuna mambo muruvazhe ndokumuzivisa mashoko ose.
Zasezingena enkosini egumeni, kodwa umqulu zawubeka ekamelweni likaElishama umbhali; zakhuluma wonke amazwi endlebeni zenkosi.
21 Mambo akatuma Jehudhi kundotora rugwaro rwakapetwa, Jehudhi ndokurutora mukamuri yaErishama munyori ndokuverengera mambo namachinda ose akanga amire parutivi rwake.
Inkosi yasithuma uJehudi ukuthi awulande umqulu; wasewuthatha ekamelweni likaElishama umbhali; uJehudi wawufunda endlebeni zenkosi lendlebeni zazo zonke iziphathamandla ezazimi enkosini.
22 Wakanga uri mwedzi wepfumbamwe uye mambo akanga akagara muimba yakavakirwa nguva yechando, moto uchipfuta mumbaura yaiva pamberi pake.
Inkosi yayihlezi-ke endlini yobusika ngenyanga yesificamunwemunye; umlilo wawuvutha embawuleni phambi kwayo.
23 Jehudhi aiti kana apedza kuverenga zvikamu zvitatu kana zvina zvorugwaro rwakapetwa, mambo aibva azvicheka nebanga ozvikanda mumbaura, kusvikira gwaro rose rapiswa mumoto.
Kwasekusithi lapho uJehudi esefundile amakhasi amathathu loba amane, yawasika ngengqamu yombhali, yawaphosela emlilweni osembawuleni, waze watsha waphela umqulu wonke emlilweni osembawuleni.
24 Mambo navaranda vake vose vakanzwa mashoko aya ose havana kumboratidza kutya, kana kubvarura nguo dzavo.
Kodwa kabesabanga, kabadabulanga izembatho zabo, inkosi lenceku zayo zonke, abawezwayo wonke lamazwi.
25 Kunyange hazvo Erinatani, Dheraya, naGemaria vakakurudzira mambo kuti arege kupisa rugwaro rwakapetwa haana kuda kuvanzwa.
Loba kunjalo labo oElinathani loDelaya loGemariya beyincenga inkosi ukuthi ingawutshisi umqulu, kodwa kayibalalelanga.
26 Pachinzvimbo chezvo, mambo akarayira Jerameeri, mwanakomana wamambo, naSeraya mwanakomana waAzirieri naSheremia mwanakomana waAbhudhieri kuti asunge Bharuki munyori naJeremia muprofita. Asi Jehovha akanga avaviga.
Kodwa inkosi yalaya uJerameli indodana yenkosi, loSeraya indodana kaAziriyeli, loShelemiya indodana kaAbideli, ukuze babambe uBharukhi umbhali loJeremiya umprofethi; kodwa iNkosi yabafihla.
27 Mambo akati apisa rugwaro rwakapetwa rwaiva namashoko akanga anyorwa naBharuki achitaurirwa naJeremia, shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Jeremia, richiti,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kuJeremiya emva kokuthi inkosi isiwutshisile umqulu lamazwi uBharukhi ayewabhalile evela emlonyeni kaJeremiya, lisithi:
28 “Tora rumwe rugwaro rwakapetwa unyore pamusoro parwo mashoko ose akanga ari parugwaro rwokutanga rwuya rwakapiswa naJehoyakimi mambo weJudha.
Zithathele futhi omunye umqulu, ubhale kuwo wonke amazwi okuqala ayesemqulwini wokuqala, uJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda eyawatshisayo.
29 Uyezve uudze Jehoyakimi mambo weJudha, kuti, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha: Wakapisa rugwaro rwuya uchiti, “Wakanyorerei parwuri uchiti zvirokwazvo mambo weBhabhironi achauya kuzoparadza nyika ino nokuparadza zvose vanhu nezvipfuwo?”
Njalo uzakuthi kuJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Wena utshisile lumqulu, usithi: Ubhaleleni kiwo usithi: Inkosi yeBhabhiloni izafika isibili, ilichithe lelilizwe, yenze ukuthi kuphele kulo abantu lenyamazana?
30 Naizvozvo, zvanzi naJehovha pamusoro paJehoyakimi mambo weJudha: Haangawani mumwe achagara pachigaro choushe chaDhavhidhi; mutumbi wake uchakandwa kunze kunopisa masikati uye kune chando usiku.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi mayelana loJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda: Kayikuba lamuntu ohlala esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaDavida; lesidumbu sakhe sizaphoselwa ekutshiseni kwemini lekuqandeni kobusuku.
31 Ndichamuranga navana vake uye navaranda vake nokuda kwezvakaipa zvavo; ndichauyisa pamusoro pavo navose vanogara muJerusarema navanhu veJudha njodzi imwe neimwe yandakareva pamusoro pavo, nokuti havana kuteerera.’”
Ngizamjezisa-ke yena, lenzalo yakhe, lenceku zakhe, ububi babo; ngehlisele phezu kwabo laphezu kwabahlali beJerusalema laphezu kwabantu bakoJuda konke okubi engikukhulume kubo, kodwa kabalalelanga.
32 Saka Jeremia akatora rumwe rugwaro rwakapetwa ndokurupa kuna Bharuki munyori, mwanakomana waNeria, Bharuki ndokunyora pamusoro parwo mashoko ose orugwaro rwakanga rwapiswa naJehoyakimi, mambo weJudha, Jeremia achimutaurira. Mashoko akawanda akafanana nawo akawedzerwa.
UJeremiya wasethatha omunye umqulu, wawunika uBharukhi, indodana kaNeriya, umbhali, owabhala kiwo okuvela emlonyeni kaJeremiya wonke amazwi ogwalo uJehoyakhimi inkosi yakoJuda eyalutshisayo ngomlilo; kwengezelelwa-ke kiwo amanye amazwi amanengi afanana lawo.
