< Jeremia 51 >
1 Zvanzi naJehovha: “Tarirai, ndichamutsa mwoyo womuparadzi pamusoro peBhabhironi navanhu veRebhi Kamai.
2 Ndichatumira vatorwa kuBhabhironi kundorirurudza nokuparadza nyika yaro; vacharirwisa kumativi ose, pazuva rokuparara kwaro.
3 Musarega mupfuri achiwembura uta hwake, kana kumurega achipfeka nhumbi dzake dzokurwa. Regai kunzwira majaya aro tsitsi; paradzai hondo yaro zvachose.
4 Vachawira pasi vaurayiwa muBhabhironi, vachakuvadzwa mumigwagwa zvokuti havazorarami.
5 Nokuti Israeri neJudha havana kuraswa naMwari wavo, iye Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, kunyange nyika yavo yakazara nemhaka pamberi poMutsvene waIsraeri.
6 “Tizai mubve muBhabhironi! Mhanyai muponese upenyu hwenyu! Regai kuparadzwa nokuda kwezvivi zvaro. Inguva yokutsiva kwaJehovha; iye achariripira zvarinokodzera.
7 Bhabhironi rakanga riri mukombe wegoridhe muruoko rwaJehovha; rakadhakisa nyika yose. Ndudzi dzakanwa waini yaro; naizvozvo dzava kupenga.
8 Bhabhironi richawa pakarepo rigoondomoka. Ungudzai pamusoro paro! Torai muti webharisamu murape kurwadziwa kwaro; zvimwe ringaporeswa.
9 “‘Taida kuporesa Bhabhironi, asi haringaporeswi; ngatirisiyei mumwe nomumwe aende kunyika yake, nokuti kutongwa kwaro kunosvika kumatenga, kunokwira kusvikira kumakore.’
10 “‘Jehovha akati hatina mhosva; uyai, tiparidze muZioni zvakaitwa naJehovha Mwari wedu.’
11 “Rodzai miseve, torai nhoo! Jehovha akamutsa madzimambo avaMedhia, nokuti akaronga kuparadza Bhabhironi. Jehovha achatsiva, kutsivira temberi yake.
12 Simudzai mureza pamusoro pamasvingo eBhabhironi! Simbisai varindi, isai nharirire panzvimbo dzavo, gadzirirai vanovandira. Jehovha achaita zvaakaronga, zvaakatema pamusoro pavanhu veBhabhironi.
13 Imi mugere pedyo nemvura zhinji uye makapfuma kwazvo, magumo enyu asvika, nguva yokuti muparadzwe.
14 Jehovha Wamasimba Ose akapika naiye amene achiti: Zvirokwazvo ndichakuzadza navarume, sezvinoitwa nechimokoto chemhashu, uye vachapembera nokuti vanenge vakukundai.
15 “Akaita nyika nesimba rake; akateya nheyo dzenyika nouchenjeri hwake, akatatamura matenga nokunzwisisa kwake.
16 Paanotinhira, mvura yomumatenga inotinhira; anokwidza makore kubva kumigumo yenyika. Anotuma mheni pamwe chete nemvura, uye anouyisa mhepo kubva mumatura ake.
17 “Munhu mumwe nomumwe haana pfungwa uye haana zivo; mupfuri mumwe nomumwe wesimbi anonyadziswa nezvifananidzo zvake. Zvifananidzo zvake ndezvenhema; hazvina mweya mazviri.
18 Hazvina maturo, zvinhu zvinosekwa; kana kutongwa kwazvo kwasvika, zvichaparadzwa.
19 Iye Mugove waJakobho haana kufanana naizvozvi, nokuti ndiye Muiti wezvinhu zvose, pamwe chete norudzi rwenhaka yake, Jehovha Wamasimba Ose ndiro zita rake.
20 “Ndiwe tsvimbo yangu yehondo, chombo changu chokurwa, newe ndinoparadza ndudzi, newe ndinoparadza umambo,
21 newe ndinoparadza bhiza nomutasvi, newe ndinoparadza ngoro nomuchairi,
22 newe ndinoparadza murume nomukadzi, newe ndinoparadza mutana nejaya, newe ndinoparadza jaya nomurandakadzi,
23 newe ndinoparadza mufudzi neboka, newe ndinoparadza murimi nenzombe, newe ndinoparadza vatongi namachinda.
24 “Ndicharipira Bhabhironi navose vagere muBhabhironi pamberi pako, nokuda kwezvakaipa zvavakaita muZioni,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
25 “Ndine mhosva newe, iwe gomo rinoparadza, iwe unoparadza nyika yose,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. “Ndichatambanudzira ruoko rwangu kuti ndikurwise, ndigokukungurusira kumawere, ndigokuita gomo rakatsva.
26 Hapana dombo richabviswa kwauri kuti riitwe dombo rekona, kana dombo remhepo, nokuti uchaparadzwa nokusingaperi,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
27 “Simudzai mureza munyika! Ridzai hwamanda pakati pendudzi! Gadzirirai ndudzi kuti dzizorwa naye; kokai ushe uhu kuzorwa naye: Ararati, Mini neAshikenazi. Gadzai mukuru wehondo kuti arwe naye; tumirai mabhiza akaita sechimokoto chemhashu.
28 Gadzirirai ndudzi kuti dzizorwa naye, madzimambo avaMedhia, vabati vavo namachinda avo ose, nenyika dzose dzavanotonga.
29 Nyika inodedera uye yomonyoroka, nokuti zvakarongwa naJehovha pamusoro peBhabhironi hazvingatongokoni, zvokuparadza nyika yeBhabhironi kuti pasava nomunhu achagaramo.
30 Mhare dzeBhabhironi dzarega kurwa; vakarambira munhare dzavo. Simba ravo rapera; vaita savakadzi. Ugaro hwake hwakapiswa nomoto; mazariro amasuo ake avhunika.
31 Anotumwa namagwaro achatevera mumwe, uye nhume ichatevera nhume, kundozivisa mambo weBhabhironi kuti guta rake rose rapambwa,
32 mazambuko abatwa, mapani apiswa nomoto, uye varwi vavhundutswa.”
33 Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose, Mwari waIsraeri: “Mwanasikana weBhabhironi afanana neburiro panguva yokupura; nguva yokumukohwa ichasvika zvino zvino.”
34 “Nebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi akatidya, akatinyonganisa, akatiita chirongo chisina chinhu. Akatimedza senyoka, uye akazadza dumbu rake nezvinonaka zvedu, mushure maizvozvo akatisvipa.
35 Zvechisimba zvakaitwa panyama yedu ngazvive pamusoro peBhabhironi,” ndizvo zvinotaura vanhu vomuZioni. Jerusarema rinoti: “Ropa redu ngarive pamusoro peavo vanogara muBhabhironi.”
36 Naizvozvo, zvanzi naJehovha: “Tarirai, ndichakurevererai mhaka yenyu uye ndichakutsivirai; ndichapwisa gungwa raro, ndichapwisa matsime aro.
37 Bhabhironi richava murwi wamatombo, ugaro hwamakava, chinhu chinotyisa nechinosekesa, nzvimbo isina anogaramo.
38 Vanhu vake vose vanoomba seshumba diki, vanobhonʼa sembwanana dzeshumba.
39 Asi kana vamutswa, ndichavagadzirira mutambo ndigovadhakisa, kuitira kuti varidze mhere yokuseka, vagovata nokusingaperi uye varege kumuka,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
40 “Ndichavaburutsa pasi semakwayana ari kundourayiwa, semakondobwe nembudzi.
41 “Haiwa, Sheshaki richakundwa sei, kuzvirumbidza kwenyika yose kwabatwa! Bhabhironi rava dongo sei pakati pendudzi!
42 Gungwa richakwira pamusoro peBhabhironi; mafungu aro anovirima acharifukidza.
43 Maguta aro achaparadzwa, achava nyika yakaoma negwenga, nyika isingagarwi nomunhu, isina angapfuura nemairi.
44 Ndicharanga Bheri muBhabhironi ndigomuita kuti asvipe zvaamedza. Ndudzi hadzichazomhanyiri kwaari. Uye rusvingo rweBhabhironi ruchawa.
45 “Budai mariri, imi vanhu vangu! Tizai kuti muponese upenyu hwenyu! Tizai mubve pakutsamwa kunotyisa kwaJehovha.
46 Regai kuora mwoyo kana kutya panotekeshera, runyerekupe munyika; rumwe runyerekupe runonzwika gore rino, rumwe gore rinouya, runyerekupe rwokurwisana munyika uye rwomutongi achirwa nomumwe mutongi.
47 Nokuti zvirokwazvo nguva ichasvika yandichatonga zvifananidzo zveBhabhironi; nyika yaro yose ichanyadziswa, uye vakaurayiwa varo vachawira pasi vose mukati maro.
48 Ipapo denga nenyika nezvose zviri mazviri zvichapembera nomufaro pamusoro peBhabhironi, nokuti vachabva nechokumusoro vaparadzi vacharirwisa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
49 “Bhabhironi rinofanira kuwa nokuda kwavakaurayiwa vaIsraeri, sezvakaita vakaurayiwa venyika yose vakawa nokuda kweBhabhironi.
50 Imi makapunyuka pamunondo, endai uye musamira-mira! Murangarire Jehovha munyika iri kure, uye murangarire Jerusarema.”
51 “Takanyadziswa, nokuti takatukwa uye nyadzi dzinofukidza zviso zvedu, nokuti vatorwa vakapinda munzvimbo tsvene dzeimba yaJehovha.”
52 “Asi mazuva anouya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, “andichatonga zvifananidzo zvaro, uye munyika yake yose vakakuvara vachagomera.
53 Kunyange dai Bhabhironi rikasvika kudenga, uye rikasimbisa nhare yaro yakareba, ndichatumira vaparadzi kuzorirwisa,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
54 “Inzwi rokuchema rinobva kuBhabhironi, inzwi rokuparadza kukuru rinobva kunyika yavaBhabhironi.
55 Jehovha achaparadza Bhabhironi; achanyaradza ruzha rwokunyongana kwaro. Mafungu avavengi achaomba semvura zhinji; kutinhira kwamanzwi avo kuchanzwikwa.
56 Muparadzi achauya kuzorwisa Bhabhironi; varwi varo vachabatwa, uye uta hwavo huchavhunwa. Nokuti Jehovha ndiMwari wokutsiva; achatsiva zvizere.
57 Ndichaita kuti machinda ake navakachenjera vake vadhakwe, vabati, namachinda uye navarwi vakewo; vachavata nokusingaperi uye havangamuki,” ndizvo zvinotaura Mambo, ane zita rinonzi Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
58 Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose: “Masvingo makobvu eBhabhironi achaparadzwa, uye masuo aro akakwirira achapiswa; vanhu vanongozvinetsa pasina, mabasa endudzi ihuni dzomurazvo bedzi.”
59 Iri ndiro shoko rakapiwa naJeremia kumuchinda Seraya mwanakomana waNeria, mwanakomana waMaseya, paakaenda kuBhabhironi naZedhekia mambo weJudha mugore rechina rokutonga kwake.
60 Jeremia akanga anyora murugwaro pamusoro penjodzi dzose dzaizouya pamusoro peBhabhironi, zvose zvakanga zvakanyorwa pamusoro peBhabhironi.
61 Akati kuna Seraya, “Paunosvika kuBhabhironi, uone kuti waverenga mashoko ose aya uchidanidzirisa.
62 Ipapo uti, ‘Haiwa Jehovha, makati muchaparadza nzvimbo ino, zvokuti hakuna munhu kana zvipfuwo zvingagaramo; ichaparadzwa nokusingaperi.’
63 Paunopedza kuverenga rugwaro urwu, sungira ibwe parwuri ugorukanda muna Yufuratesi.
64 Ipapo uti, ‘Saizvozvo Bhabhironi richanyura rikasazomukazve nokuda kwenjodzi yandichauyisa pamusoro paro. Uye vanhu varo vachawa.’” Mashoko aJeremia anogumira pano.
