< Jeremia 49 >
1 Pamusoro paAmoni: Zvanzi naJehovha: “Ko, Israeri haana mwanakomana here? Haana vadyi venhaka here? Ko, zvino Moreki atorerei nhaka yaGadhi? Nemhaka yeiko vanhu vake vachigara mumaguta ayo?
Yehova ananena izi: Amoni, “Kodi Israeli alibe ana aamuna? Kapena alibe mlowamʼmalo? Tsono nʼchifukwa chiyani anthu opembedza Moleki alanda dziko la Gadi? Nʼchifukwa chiyani anthu ake akukhala mʼmizinda ya Gadi?
2 Asi mazuva anouya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “andicharidza mhere yehondo pamusoro peRabha ravaAmoni; richaitwa murwi wamatongo, uye misha yakaripoteredza ichapiswa nomoto. Ipapo Israeri achadzinga vaya vakanga vamudzinga,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Koma nthawi ikubwera,” akutero Yehova, “pamene ndidzamveketse mfuwu wankhondo ku Raba, likulu la Amoni; ndipo malo awo opembedzera milungu yawo adzatenthedwa ndi moto. Choncho Aisraeli adzalandanso dziko lawo kuchokera kwa amene anawalanda poyamba dzikolo,” akutero Yehova.
3 “Ungudza, iwe Heshibhoni, nokuti Ai raparadzwa! Ridzai mhere, imi vanogara muRabha! Pfekai masaga mucheme, mhanyai pano nekoko pakati porusvingo, nokuti Moreki achaenda kuutapwa, pamwe chete navaprista vake namachinda ake.
“Lirani, inu anthu a ku Hesiboni chifukwa wowononga uja wafika! Fuwulani, inu anthu okhala ku Raba! Valani ziguduli ndi kulira mwamphamvu; thamangani uku ndi uku mʼkati mwa malinga, chifukwa mulungu wanu Moleki adzapita ku ukapolo, pamodzi ndi ansembe ake ndiponso akuluakulu ake.
4 Unozvikudzireiko nemipata yako, kuzvikudza nemipata inobereka kwazvo? Haiwa mwanasikana wokusatendeka, unovimba nepfuma yako uchiti, ‘Ndiani acharwa neni?’
Chifukwa chiyani mukunyadira chigwa chanu, inu anthu osakhulupirika amene munadalira chuma chanu nʼkumati: ‘Ndani angandithire nkhondo?’
5 Ndichauyisa kutya pamusoro pako kunobva kuna avo vakakupoteredza,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. “Mumwe nomumwe wenyu achadzingirwa kure, uye hakuna achaunganidza vatizi.
Ndidzabweretsa zoopsa pa iwe zochokera kwa onse amene akuzungulira,” akutero Ambuye, Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse. “Mudzathawa, ndipo aliyense adzathawitsa moyo wake. Sipadzapezeka munthu wosonkhanitsanso othawawo.
6 “Asi shure kwaizvozvo, ndichadzosazve pfuma yavaAmoni,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
“Komabe pambuyo pake, ndidzabwezera kwawo Aamoni,” akutero Yehova.
7 Pamusoro peEdhomu: Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Ko, muTemani hamuchina uchenjeri here? Mano atsakatika here kuna vakangwara? Ko, uchenjeri hwavo hwaora here?
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse ananena izi za Edomu: “Kodi nzeru sizikupezekanso ku Temani? Kodi anzeru analeka kupereka uphungu? Kodi nzeru zawo zinatheratu?
8 Dzokai uye mutize, muwande mumapako akadzika, imi munogara muDhedhani, nokuti ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro paEsau, panguva yandinomuranga.
Inu anthu a ku Dedani, thawani, bwererani ndi kukabisala ku makwalala chifukwa ndidzagwetsa mavuto pa zidzukulu za Esau popeza nthawi yawo ya chiweruzo yafika.
9 Kana vanononga mazambiringa vakasvika kwauri, havangasiyi mazambiringa mashoma here? Kana mbavha dzikasvika usiku, havangabi zvavanoda chete here?
Kodi anthu othyola mphesa akanafika kwa inu akanakusiyiraniko mphesa pangʼono pokha? Anthu akuba akanafika usiku akanangotengako zimene akuzifuna zokha?
10 Asi ndichafukura Esau; ndichazarura nzvimbo dzake dzokuvanda, kuitira kuti akundikane kuzvivanza. Vana vake, nehama dzake navavakidzani vake vachafa, uye iye haachazovapozve.
Koma ine ndazivula zidzukulu za Esau. Ndaonetsa poyera malo awo obisalamo, kotero kuti sadzathanso kubisala. Ana ake, abale ake pamodzi ndi anansi ake awonongeka. Palibe wonena kuti,
11 Siya nherera dzako; ini ndicharwira upenyu hwavo. Chirikadzi dzakowo dzichagona kuvimba neni.”
‘Siyani ana anu amasiye; Ine ndidzawateteza. Amayi anu amasiye akhoza kudalira Ine.’”
12 Zvanzi naJehovha: “Kana avo vakanga vasingafaniri kunwa pamukombe vakodzera kuunwa, iwe ucharegereiko kurangwa? Haungaregi kurangwa, asi unofanira kunwa pamukombe wacho.
Yehova akuti, “Ngati iwo amene sanali oyenera kulangidwa adzamwa chikho cha chiweruzo, ndiye muyesa kuti inuyo simudzalangidwa? Ayi ndithu simudzakhala osalangidwa. Mudzamwa ndithu chikhocho.
13 Ndinopika neni ndimene,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “kuti Bhozira richava dongo nechinhu chinonyangadza, nechinhu chinotyisa, chinozvidzwa nechinotukwa; uye maguta aro ose achava matongo nokusingaperi.”
Ine ndikulumbira, akutero Yehova, kuti mzinda wa Bozira udzasanduka bwinja, chinthu chochititsa mantha, chomachiseka ndiponso chotembereredwa. Mizinda yake yonse idzakhala mabwinja mpaka muyaya.”
14 Ndakanzwa shoko rakabva kuna Jehovha, richiti: Nhume yakatumwa kundudzi kunoti, “Unganai kuti murwe naro! Simukai murwe!”
Ndamva uthenga wochokera kwa Yehova: Nthumwi yatumidwa kupita kwa anthu a mitundu ina kukanena kuti, “Sonkhanani pamodzi kuti muthire nkhondo Edomu! Konzekerani nkhondo!”
15 “Zvino ndichakuita muduku pakati pendudzi, anozvidzwa pakati pavanhu.
“Ndidzakuchepetsani pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina. Mudzakhala anthu onyozeka pakati pa anthu.
16 Kutyisa kwaunoita, nokuzvikudza kwomwoyo wako zvakunyengera, iwe unogara mumikaha yematombo, ugere panzvimbo dzakakwirira dzechikomo. Kunyange ukavaka dendere rako pakakwirira segondo, ndichakukoromora kubva ipapo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Kuopseza kwako kwakunyenga; kudzikuza kwa mtima wako kwakusocheretsa, iwe amene umakhala mʼmapanga a mʼmatanthwe ndi mʼmapiri. Ngakhale utamanga chisa chako pamwamba kwambiri ngati chiwombankhanga, ndidzakutsitsa pansi kuchokera kumeneko,” akutero Yehova.
17 “Edhomu richava chinhu chinotyisa, vose vachapfuura napo vachashamiswa, uye vachaseka nokuda kwamavanga aro ose.
“Dziko la Edomu lidzasanduka chinthu chochititsa mantha. Onse odutsamo adzadabwa ndi kupukusa mitu yawo chifukwa cha kuwonongeka kwake.
18 Sokuparadzwa kwakaitwa Sodhomu neGomora, pamwe chete namaguta akanga akavakidzana nawo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “saka hakuna munhu achazogarako; hakuna munhu achagara mariri.
Monga momwe anawonongekera Sodomu ndi Gomora, pamodzi ndi mizinda yake yozungulira,” akutero Yehova, “motero palibe munthu amene adzakhala mu Edomu.
19 “Seshumba inobuda mumatenhere eJorodhani ichienda kumafuro akapfuma, ndichadzinga Edhomu kubva munyika yake pakarepo. Ndianiko akasarudzwa wandichagadza kuti aite izvi? Ndiani akafanana neni uye ndiani angakwikwidzane neni? Uye ndoupi mufudzi angamisidzana neni?”
“Monga mkango wotuluka ku nkhalango za ku Yorodani kupita ku malo a msipu wobiriwira, Ine ndidzapirikitsa anthu a ku Edomu mwadzidzidzi kuchoka mʼdziko lawo. Pambuyo pake ndidzawayikira owalamulira amene ndamufuna Ine. Kodi ndani wofanana nane, ndipo angatsutsane nane ndani? Ndipo ndi mʼbusa uti amene angalimbane nane?”
20 Naizvozvo, inzwai zvakarongwa naJehovha pamusoro peEdhomu, zvaakafunga pamusoro peavo vagere muTemani: Achakwekweredza vaduku vemapoka; achaparadza chose mafuro avo nokuda kwavo.
Nʼchifukwa chake imvani. Izi ndi zimene Ine Yehova ndakonza zolangira anthu a ku Edomu ndi a ku Temani. Ngakhale ana omwe adzatengedwa ukapolo ndipo aliyense adzachita mantha chifukwa cha iwo.
21 Nyika ichadedera nokuda kwomubvumo wokuwa kwavo; kuchema kwavo kuchanzwikwawo kusvikira kuGungwa Dzvuku.
Akadzagwa Edomu padzakhala mfuwu waukulu ndipo dziko lapansi lidzanjenjemera; kulira kwawo kudzamveka mpaka ku Nyanja Yofiira.
22 Tarirai gondo richabhururuka ndokudzika nesimba, rakatambanudza mapapiro aro pamusoro peBhozira. Pazuva iro mwoyo yemhare dzeEdhomu ichafanana nomwoyo womukadzi orwadziwa.
Taonani, mtundu wina udzachita kuwuluka nʼkudzatera pa Bozira ngati chiwombankhanga chimene chatambalitsa mapiko ake. Pa tsiku limenelo mitima ya ankhondo a ku Edomu idzagunda ngati mtima wa mayi pa nthawi yake yochira.
23 Pamusoro peDhamasiko: “Hamati neAripadhi avhundutswa, nokuti agamuchira mashoko akaipa. Aora mwoyo, atambudzika segungwa risina zororo.
Mawu a Yehova onena za Damasiko ndi awa: “Anthu a ku Hamati ndi a ku Aripadi akuchita mantha chifukwa amva nkhani yoyipa. Mitima yawo yagwidwa ndi mantha ndipo ali ngati muja ichitira nyanja yosakhazikika.
24 Dhamasiko harichina simba, rakatendeuka kuti ritize, kuvhunduka kukaribata; kugomera nokurwadziwa zvakaribata, kurwadziwa sekwomukadzi osununguka.
Anthu a ku Damasiko alefuka. Abwerera mʼmbuyo kufuna kuthawa chifukwa agwidwa ndi mantha aakulu. Ali ndi nkhawa komanso mantha ngati za mayi pa nthawi yake yochira.
25 Guta remukurumbira harina kusiyiwa seiko, iro guta randinofarira?
Mzinda wotchuka ndi wachikondwerero uja wasiyidwa!
26 Zvirokwazvo majaya aro achawa mumigwagwa; varwi varo vose vachati mwiro pazuva iroro,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Nʼchifukwa chake anyamata ake adzagwa mʼmisewu ndi kufa; ankhondo ake onse adzawonongedwa tsiku limenelo,” akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
27 “Ndichatungidza moto kumasvingo eDhamasiko; uchaparadza nhare dzose dzaBheni-Hadhadhi.”
“Ndidzatentha malinga a Damasiko; moto udzanyeketsa nyumba zaufumu za Beni-Hadadi.”
28 Pamusoro peKedhari noumambo hweHazori, hwakarwiswa naNebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi: Zvanzi naJehovha: “Simukai, murwise Kedhari uye muparadze vanhu vokuMabvazuva.
Mawu a Yehova onena za Kedara ndi maufumu a ku Hazori, amene Nebukadinezara mfumu ya Babuloni anawagonjetsa ndi awa: “Nyamukani mukathire nkhondo ku Kedara. Kawonongeni anthu a kummawako.
29 Matende avo namapoka avo amakwai achatorwa; matumba avo achatorwa achiendwa nawo, nemidziyo yavo yose nengamera. Vanhu vachadanidzira kwavari vachiti, ‘Zvinhu zviri kutyisa kumativi ose!’
Landani matenti awo ndi nkhosa zawo, ndiye kuti, mutenge nsalu zawo ndi katundu wawo. Mutengenso ngamira zawo. Anthu adzafuwula kwa iwo kuti, ‘Kuli zoopsa mbali zonse!’
30 “Tizirai kure nokukurumidza! Garai mumapako akadzika, imi vagari vomuHazari,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Nebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi aita zvakaipa pamusoro penyu; aronga zano pamusoro penyu.
“Thawani mofulumira! Kabisaleni mʼmakhwawa, inu anthu ku Hazori,” akutero Yehova. “Nebukadinezara mfumu ya ku Babuloni wakukonzerani chiwembu; wakonzekera zoti alimbane nanu.
31 “Simukai mundorwisa rudzi rwakazvigarira zvarwo, rugere zvarwo rusina hanya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “irwo rudzi rusina masuo kana mazariro; vanhu varwo vanogara voga zvavo.
“Nyamukani kathireni nkhondo mtundu wa anthu umene uli pamtendere, umene ukukhala mosatekeseka,” akutero Yehova, “mzindawo ulibe zipata ngakhalenso mipiringidzo; anthu ake amakhala pa okha.
32 Ngamera dzavo dzichapambwa, uye mombe dzavo dzakawanda dzichapambwa. Ndichaparadzira kumhepo avo vari kunyika dzokure, uye ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pavo kubva kumativi ose,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Ngamira zawo zidzafunkhidwa, ndipo makola a ngʼombe zawo adzalandidwa. Ndidzabalalitsira ku mphepo zinayi onse amene amameta tsitsi lawo chamʼmbali. Ndidzawagwetsera mavuto kuchokera ku mbali zonse,” akutero Yehova.
33 “Hazori richava ugaro hwamakava, dongo nokusingaperi. Hapana achagarako; hakuna munhu achagara mariri.”
“Hazori adzasanduka bwinja, malo okhalamo nkhandwe mpaka muyaya. Palibe munthu amene adzayendemo.”
34 Iri ndiro shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Jeremia muprofita pamusoro peEramu, pakutanga kwokubata ushe kwaZedhekia mambo weJudha, richiti:
Uthenga umene Yehova anapatsa mneneri Yeremiya wonena za Elamu, Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda atangoyamba kulamulira ndi uwu:
35 Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Tarirai, ndichavhuna uta hweEramu, iwo musimboti wesimba ravo.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Taonani, ndidzathyola uta wa Elamu, umene uli chida chawo champhamvu.
36 Ndichauyisa pamusoro paEramu mhepo ina, kubva kumativi mana ematenga; ndichavaparadzira kumhepo ina uye hakungavi norudzi rumwe kusingaendwi navavakidzani veEramu.
Ndidzabweretsa mphepo zinayi pa Elamu kuchokera ku zigawo zinayi zamlengalenga; ndidzawabalalitsira ku mphepo zinayi, ndipo sipadzakhala dziko limene anthu a ku Elamu sadzafikako.
37 Ndichapwanya Eramu pamberi pavavengi vavo, pamberi paivo vanotsvaka kuvauraya; ndichauyisa njodzi pamusoro pavo, iko kutsamwa kwangu kunotyisa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Ndichavatevera nomunondo kusvikira ndavapedza.
A ku Elamuwo ndidzachititsa mantha pamaso pa adani awo komanso pamaso pa iwo amene akufuna kuwononga moyo wawo. Ndidzawagwetsera mkwiyo wanga ndipo adzakhala pa mavuto,” akutero Yehova. “Ndidzawapirikitsa ndi lupanga mpaka nditawatheratu.
38 Ndichaisa chigaro changu choushe muEramu uye ndichaparadza mambo wayo namachinda ayo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Ndidzakhazika mpando wanga waufumu ku Elamu ndipo ndidzawononga mfumu yake pamodzi ndi akuluakulu ake,” akutero Yehova.
39 “Asi ndichadzosa nhaka yeEramu mumazuva okupedzisira,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
“Komabe mʼtsogolomo ndidzabwezera anthu a ku Elamu dziko lawo,” akutero Yehova.
