Jeremia 48
1 Pamusoro peMoabhu: Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose, Mwari waIsraeri: “Ine nhamo Nebho, nokuti ichaparadzwa. Kiriataimi ichanyadziswa uye ichakundwa; nhare dzichanyadziswa uye dzichaparadzwa.
Against Moab thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe to Nebo! for it is spoiled: Kiriathaim is confounded and taken: Misgab is confounded and dismayed.
2 Moabhu haichazorumbidzwizve; muHeshibhoni varume vacharangana nezvokuwa kwaro, vachiti: ‘Uyai, tiparadze rudzi urwo.’ Newewo, iwe Madhimeni uchati mwiro; munondo uchakutevera.
There shall be no more praise of Moab: in Heshbon they have devised evil against it; come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Also you shall be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue you.
3 Inzwai kuchema kunobva kuHoronaimi, kuchema kwokukoromorwa nokuparadzwa kukuru.
A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.
4 Moabhu ichaputswa; vana vadiki varo vacharidza mhere.
Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
5 Vachakwira nomukwidza weRuhiti, vachichema zvikuru pakuenda kwavo; pamateru enzira yokuHoronaimi kuchema kwokurwadziwa pamusoro pokuparadza kunonzwika.
For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.
6 Tizai! Mhanyai muponese upenyu hwenyu; mufanane negwenzi riri mugwenga.
Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.
7 Sezvo muchivimba namabasa uye nepfuma yenyu, nemiwo muchatapwa, uye Kemoshi ichaenda kuutapwa, pamwe chete navaprista namachinda ayo.
For because you have trusted in your works and in your treasures, you shall also be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity with his priests and his princes together.
8 Muparadzi acharwa namaguta ose ose, uye hapana guta richapunyuka. Mupata uchaparadzwa, uye mutunhu wakakwirira uchaparadzwa nokuti Jehovha azvitaura.
And the spoiler shall come on every city, and no city shall escape: the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the LORD has spoken.
9 Isai munyu pamusoro peMoabhu, nokuti ichaparadzwa; maguta ayo achava matongo, asina achazogaramo.
Give wings to Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.
10 “Ngaatukwe uyo anobata basa raJehovha asina hanya! Ngaatukwe uyo anodzora munondo wake pakuteura ropa!
Cursed be he that does the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keeps back his sword from blood.
11 “Moabhu anga ane zororo kubvira pauduku hwake, sewaini yasarira mumasese, isina kudirwa kubva muno mumwe mudziyo ichiiswa muno mumwe, haana kuenda kuutapwa. Saka anongotapira sezvaakanga ari, uye kunhuhwira kwake hakuna kushanduka.
Moab has been at ease from his youth, and he has settled on his lees, and has not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither has he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.
12 Asi mazuva anouya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “andichatuma varume vanodurura zvinobva mumudziyo, uye vachadururira pasi; vachasiya midziyo isina chinhu uye vagoputsa midziyo yake.
Therefore, behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will send to him wanderers, that shall cause him to wander, and shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles.
13 Ipapo Moabhu achanyadziswa neKemoshi, sokunyadziswa kwakaitwa imba yaIsraeri pavakavimba neBheteri.
And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel their confidence.
14 “Ungataura sei, uchiti, ‘Tiri mhare, varume vakatsunga muhondo’?
How say you, We are mighty and strong men for the war?
15 Moabhu ichaparadzwa, uye maguta ayo acharwiswa; majaya ake akaisvonaka achaburukira kundourayiwa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Mambo, ane zita rinonzi Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, says the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
16 “Kuwa kweMoabhu kwava pedyo; njodzi yayo ichasvika nokukurumidza.
The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hastens fast.
17 Ichemei, imi mose mugere makaipoteredza, vose vanoziva mukurumbira wayo; muti, ‘Yavhunika seiko tsvimbo yakasimba, wavhunika seiko mudonzvo wakaisvonaka!’
All you that are about him, bemoan him; and all you that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, and the beautiful rod!
18 “Burukai pakukudzwa kwenyu mugare pavhu rakaoma, imi vagari voMwanasikana weDhibhoni, nokuti iye anoparadza Moabhu achauya kuzokurwisai, uye agoparadza maguta enyu akakomberedzwa.
You daughter that do inhabit Dibon, come down from your glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come on you, and he shall destroy your strong holds.
19 Mirai panzira mutarire, imi vagari vemuAroeri. Bvunzai murume ari kutiza nomukadzi apunyuka, muvabvunze kuti, ‘Chii chaitika?’
O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that flees, and her that escapes, and say, What is done?
20 Moabhu yanyadziswa, nokuti yaparadzwa. Ungudzai uye muridze mhere! Zvizivisei paArinoni kuti Moabhu yaparadzwa.
Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell you it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,
21 Kutonga kwasvika kumutunhu wakakwirira, kuHoroni, Jahaza neMefaati,
And judgment is come on the plain country; on Holon, and on Jahazah, and on Mephaath,
22 kuDhibhoni, Nebho neBheti Dhibhirataimu,
And on Dibon, and on Nebo, and on Bethdiblathaim,
23 kuKiriataimu, neBheti Gamuri neBheti Meoni,
And on Kiriathaim, and on Bethgamul, and on Bethmeon,
24 kuKerioti neBhozira, nokumaguta ose eMoabhu ari kure neari pedyo.
And on Kerioth, and on Bozrah, and on all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
25 Runyanga rweMoabhu rwagurwa; ruoko rwake rwavhunika,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, says the LORD.
26 “Itai kuti adhakwe, nokuti iye azvidza Jehovha. Regai Moabhu aumburuke mumarutsi ake; ngaave chinhu chinosekwa.
Make you him drunken: for he magnified himself against the LORD: Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
27 Ko, Israeri haana kuva chinhu chinosekwa nemi here? Ko, akabatwa ari pakati pembavha here, zvamunodzungudza musoro wenyu muchimushora pose pamunotaura nezvake?
For was not Israel a derision to you? was he found among thieves? for since you spoke of him, you skipped for joy.
28 Siyai maguta enyu mundogara pakati pamatombo, imi mugere muMoabhu. Itai senjiva inovaka dendere rayo pamuromo webako.
O you that dwell in Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, and be like the dove that makes her nest in the sides of the hole’s mouth.
29 “Takanzwa nezvokuzvikudza kweMoabhu, manyawi nokudada kwavo kukuru uye kuzvikudza kwakanyanya, kuzvikudza kwavo nokuzvitutumadza namanyawi emwoyo wayo.
We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness, and his arrogance, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart.
30 Ndinoziva kusindimara kwayo asi hakuna maturo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “uye kuzvikudza kwake kuzhinji hakuna zvakunoreva.
I know his wrath, says the LORD; but it shall not be so; his lies shall not so effect it.
31 Naizvozvo ndinoungudza pamusoro peMoabhu, nokuda kweMoabhu yose ndinodanidzira, ndinochema varume veKiri Hareseti.
Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; my heart shall mourn for the men of Kirheres.
32 Ndinokuchema sokuchema kunoita Jazeri, haiwa imi mazambiringa eGibhima. Matavi enyu akatandavara kundosvika kugungwa; akandosvika kugungwa reJazeri. Muparadzi awira pamichero yako yaibva namazambiringa.
O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for you with the weeping of Jazer: your plants are gone over the sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the spoiler is fallen on your summer fruits and on your vintage.
33 Mufaro nokufarisisa zvaenda, zvabva muminda yemichero nomuminda yeMoabhu. Ndagumisa kuyerera kwewaini inobva pazvisviniro; hakuna achazvitsika achidanidzira nomufaro. Kunyange pano kudanidzira, hakusi kudanidzira kwomufaro.
And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab, and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting.
34 “Inzwi rokuchema kwavo rinokwira richibva kuHeshibhoni kusvikira kuErieri neJahazi, kubva kuZoari kusvikira kuHoronaimi neEgirati Sherishiya, nokuti kunyange nemvura dzeNimirimi dzapwa.
From the cry of Heshbon even to Elealeh, and even to Jahaz, have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even to Horonaim, as an heifer of three years old: for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.
35 Ndichaisa magumo muMoabhu, kuna avo vanopa zvipiriso panzvimbo dzakakwirira, uye vanopisira zvinonhuhwira kuna vamwari vavo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, says the LORD, him that offers in the high places, and him that burns incense to his gods.
36 “Saka mwoyo wangu unorira senyere pamusoro peMoabhu; unorira senyere pamusoro pavarume veKiri Hareseti. Pfuma yavakawana yapera.
Therefore my heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and my heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kirheres: because the riches that he has gotten are perished.
37 Musoro mumwe nomumwe wakaveurwa, uye ndebvu dzose dzakagurirwa; ruoko rumwe norumwe rwakagurwa, uye zviuno zvose zvakafukidzwa namasaga.
For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped: on all the hands shall be cuttings, and on the loins sackcloth.
38 Pamusoro pamatenga ose eMoabhu napazvivara hakuna chiriko kunze kwokuchema, nokuti ndaputsa Moabhu sedende risina anorida,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
There shall be lamentation generally on all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein is no pleasure, says the LORD.
39 “Akoromorwa sei! Vaungudza sei! Hoyo Moabhu afuratira nokuda kwokunyadziswa! Moabhu yava chinhu chinosekwa, chinhu chinonyangadza kuna vose vakaipoteredza.”
They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how has Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him.
40 Zvanzi naJehovha: “Tarirai achabhururuka segondo, rakatambanudzira mapapiro aro pamusoro peMoabhu.
For thus says the LORD; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread his wings over Moab.
41 Kerioti ichatapwa uye nhare dzichatorwa. Pazuva iro mwoyo yemhare dzeMoabhu ichafanana nomwoyo womukadzi ari kurwadziwa.
Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, and the mighty men’s hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42 Moabhu ichaparadzwa serudzi nokuti yakazvidza Jehovha.
And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he has magnified himself against the LORD.
43 Kutya negomba nomusungo zvakakumirirai, imi vanhu veMoabhu,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Fear, and the pit, and the snare, shall be on you, O inhabitant of Moab, says the LORD.
44 “Ani naani achatiza njodzi iyi achawira mugomba, ani naani achakwira achibuda mugomba, achabatwa mumusungo; nokuti ndichauyisa pamusoro peMoabhu gore rokurangwa kwake,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
He that flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that gets up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring on it, even on Moab, the year of their visitation, says the LORD.
45 “Mumumvuri weHeshibhoni vatizi vanomirapo vasina simba, nokuti moto wabuda uchibva kuHeshibhoni, murazvo pakati peSihoni; unopisa huma dzaMoabhu, misoro yavanozvikudza vemheremhere.
They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force: but a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the middle of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
46 Une nhamo, iwe Moabhu! Vanhu veKemoshi vaparara; vanakomana vako vakaendeswa kuutapwa navanasikana vako muutapwa.
Woe be to you, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perishes: for your sons are taken captives, and your daughters captives.
47 “Kunyange zvakadaro ndichadzosazve pfuma yeMoabhu pamazuva anouya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. Pano ndipo panogumira kutongwa kweMoabhu.
Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, says the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
