5 Kana mukashandura chaizvoizvo nzira dzenyu namaitiro enyu mukaitirana zvakarurama,
Ngati mutasinthadi makhalidwe anu ndi zochita zanu, ndi kumachitirana zolungama,

10 ndokuzouya zvino momira pamberi pangu muimba ino, iyo ine Zita rangu, muchiti, “Takasunungurwa,” makasunungurwa kuti muite izvi zvose zvinonyangadza here?
ndipo kenaka nʼkubwera kudzayima pamaso panga mʼNyumba ino, Nyumba imene imadziwika ndi Dzina langa, inu nʼkumati, ‘Tapulumuka.’ Mwapulumuka kuti muzichitabe zonyansazi?
11 Ko, imba ino, inodanwa neZita rangu, yava bako ramakororo here? Asika, ndanga ndichizviona, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.
Kodi Nyumba ino imene imadziwika ndi Dzina langa, yasanduka phanga la anthu olanda zinthu anzawo mwachifwamba inu mukuona? Komatu ndakhala ndi kuziona zonsezi! akutero Yehova.”
12 “‘Chiendai zvino kunzvimbo iri muShiro pandakagarisa Zita rangu pakutanga mugoona zvandakuitirai nokuda kwezvakaipa zvavanhu vangu Israeri.
“‘Pitani tsopano ku malo anga ku Silo, malo amene poyamba ankadziwika ndi Dzina langa, ndipo mukaone zimene ndinachita kumeneko chifukwa cha kuyipa kwa anthu anga Aisraeli.
13 Pamakanga muchiita zvinhu zvose izvi, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, ndakataura nemi ndataurazve asi hamuna kuteerera; ndakakudanai asi hamuna kupindura.
Tsono popeza munkachita zonsezi, ngakhale Ine kukuyankhulani koma inu osamvera, kukuyitanani koma inu osayankha,
14 Naizvozvo, zvandakaitira Shiro ndizvo zvandichaita iye zvino kuimba inodanwa neZita rangu, iyo temberi yamunovimba nayo, nzvimbo yandakakupai imi namadzibaba enyu.
choncho ndidzachita pa Nyumba imene imadziwika ndi Dzina langayi, Nyumba ya Yehova imene mumayidalira, malo amene ndinapereka kwa inu ndi makolo anu, zomwe ndinachita ku Silo.
15 Ndichakubvisai pamberi pangu sezvandakaita kuhama dzenyu dzose, ivo vanhu vaEfuremu.’
Ndidzakuthamangitsani pamaso panga, ngati momwe ndinachitira abale anu onse, anthu a Efereimu.’”
16 “Naizvozvo iwe chirega kunyengeterera vanhu ava kana kupa chikumbiro chipi zvacho kana kuvareverera; usavakumbirira kwandiri, nokuti handingakunzwi.
“Choncho iwe Yeremiya usawapempherere anthu awa ngakhale kuwapepesera kapenanso kuwapembedzera; usandidandaulire, chifukwa Ine sindidzakumvera.
17 Hauoni here zvavari kuita mumaguta eJudha nomumigwagwa yeJerusarema?
Kodi sukuona zimene akuchita mʼmizinda ya ku Yuda ndi mʼmisewu ya ku Yerusalemu?
18 Vana vanounganidza huni, madzibaba ndokubatidza moto, uye madzimai anokanya furawu ndokuitira Mambokadzi woKudenga makeke echingwa. Vanodurura zvipiriso zvokunwa kuna vamwe vamwari kuti vanditsamwise.
Ana akutorera nkhuni, abambo akusonkha moto, ndipo amayi akukanda ufa kuti aphike makeke oti akapereke nsembe kwa mfumukazi yazakumwamba. Iwo amathira nsembe ya zakumwa kwa milungu ina kuti andipsetse mtima.
19 Asi ndini here wavanotsamwisa? ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. Ko, hakuzi kuzvikuvadza pachavo here kuti vanyadziswe?
Koma kodi akuvutitsa Ine? Kodi sakungodzivuta okha, ndi kudzichititsa manyazi? akutero Yehova.”
20 “‘Naizvozvo Ishe Jehovha anoti: Kutsamwa kwangu nehasha dzangu zvichadururirwa pamusoro penzvimbo iyi, pamusoro pavanhu nezvipfuwo, napamusoro pemiti yesango napamusoro pezvibereko zvevhu, uye zvichatsva zvikasadzimwa.
“Nʼchifukwa chake Ambuye Yehova akuti: Ndidzatsanulira mkwiyo wanga pa Nyumba yangayi, anthu, nyama, mitengo ndi zipatso zomwe. Mkwiyowo udzakhala ngati moto wosazimitsika.
21 “‘Zvanzi naJehovha Wamasimba Ose, Mwari weIsraeri: Endererai mberi, wedzerai zvipiriso zvenyu zvinopiswa pamusoro pezvimwe zvibayiro mugodya nyama yacho pachenyu!
“Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti: Wonjezerani nsembe zanu zopsereza pa nsembe zanu zinazo ndipo mudye nyama yakeyo!
22 Nokuti pandakabudisa madzitateguru enyu kubva muIjipiti ndikataura navo, handina kungovapa mirayiro pamusoro pezvipiriso zvinopiswa nezvibayiro,
Pakuti pamene ndinatulutsa makolo anu ku Igupto ndi kuyankhula nawo, sindinawalamulire kuti azipereka nsembe zopsereza kapena nsembe zinazo,
23 asi ndakavapa murayiro uyu wokuti nditeererei, uye ndichava Mwari wenyu nemi muchava vanhu vangu. Mufambe munzira dzose dzandakakurayirai, kuti zvigova zvakanaka kwamuri.
koma ndinawalamula kuti: Mverani Ine, ndipo ndidzakhala Mulungu wanu ndipo inu mudzakhala anthu anga. Muzitsata zonse zimene ndakulamulirani, ndipo zinthu zidzakuyenderani bwino.
24 Asi havana kuteerera kana kurereka nzeve dzavo; asi vakatevera kutsauka kwoukukutu hwemwoyo yavo yakaipa. Vakadzokera shure vakasaenda mberi.
Koma anthuwo sanamvere kapena kulabadira; mʼmalo mwake anapitirira kusamvera ndi mitima yawo yoyipa. Iwo anabwerera mʼmbuyo mʼmalo mopita patsogolo.
25 Kubvira panguva yakabuda madzitateguru enyu muIjipiti kusvikira zvino, zuva nezuva, ndakatuma varanda vangu vaprofita ndavatumazve.
Kuyambira tsiku limene makolo awo anachoka ku Igupto mpaka lero lino, ndakhala ndikuwatumizira atumiki anga, aneneri.
26 Asi havana kunditeerera kana kuita hanya. Vaiva nemitsipa mikukutu uye vakaita zvakaipa kupfuura madzitateguru avo.’
Koma anthuwo sanandimvere kapena kusamalira. Anawumitsa mitima yawo ndi kuchita zoyipa kuposa makolo awo.
27 “Pauchavataurira zvose izvi, havasi kuzokuteerera; pauchavadana, havasi kuzokupindura.
“Ngakhale iwe uwawuze zonsezi koma sadzakumvera. Ngakhale uwayitane koma sadzakuyankha.
28 Naizvozvo iwe uti kwavari, ‘Urwu ndirwo rudzi rusina kuteerera Jehovha Mwari warwo kana kubvuma kurayirwa. Chokwadi chakaparara, hachisisipo pamiromo yavo.
Nʼchifukwa chake udzawawuze kuti, ‘Uwu ndi mtundu wa anthu umene sunamvere Yehova Mulungu wake, wosalola kulangizidwa. Choonadi chatha; chazimirira pa milomo yawo.’
29 Veurai bvudzi renyu mugorirasira kure; chemai muri pazvikomo zvisina miti, nokuti Jehovha akaramba uye akasiya chizvarwa ichi chaakatsamwira.
“Tsono meta tsitsi lako ndi kulitaya. Ulire kwambiri pa zitunda zopanda zomera, pakuti Yehova waukana ndi kuwusiya mʼbado umene wamukwiyitsawu.”
30 “‘Vanhu veJudha vakaita zvakaipa pamberi pangu, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha. Vakamisa zvifananidzo zvavo zvinonyangadza mumba yakapiwa Zita rangu vakaisvibisa.
“Anthu a ku Yuda achita zoyipa pamaso panga, akutero Yehova. Ayimika mafano awo onyansa mʼnyumba imene imadziwika ndi Dzina langa ndipo ayipitsa.
31 Vakavaka nzvimbo dzakakwirira dzeTofeti muMupata waBheni Hinomi kuti vapise vanakomana navasikana vavo mumoto, chinhu chandisina kuvarayira, chisina kumbopinda mupfungwa dzangu.
Amanga nsanja yopembedzera Tofeti mʼChigwa cha Hinomu kuti apserezereko ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi. Zimenezi Ine sindinawalamulire ngakhale kuziganizira nʼkomwe.
32 Saka chenjerai, mazuva anouya, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, apo vanhu vasingazopadaidzi kuti Tofeti kana Mupata waBheni Hinomi, asi Mupata woKuurayiwa kwaVanhu, nokuti vachaviga vakafa muTofeti kusvikira pasisina nzvimbo.
Nʼchifukwa chake masiku akubwera, akutero Yehova, pamene anthu sadzawatchulanso malowo Tofeti kapena Chigwa cha Hinomu, koma adzawatchula Chigwa cha Imfa, chifukwa adzakwirira anthu akufa ku Tofeti mpaka osapezekanso malo owayika.
33 Ipapo mitumbi yavanhu ava ichava zvokudya zveshiri dzedenga nemhuka dzenyika, uye hapazovi nomunhu angazvivhundutsira kuti zvibve.
Ndipo mitembo ya anthu amenewa idzakhala chakudya cha mbalame zamlengalenga ndi zirombo zakuthengo, ndipo palibe wina amene adzazipirikitse.
34 Ndichaita kuti inzwi rokupembera nomufaro uye namanzwi omwenga nechikomba mumaguta eJudha nomumigwagwa yeJerusarema zvigume nokuti nyika ichava dongo.
Ndidzathetsa nyimbo zonse zachisangalalo ndi zachikondwerero mʼmizinda ya ku Yuda ndi mʼmisewu ya ku Yerusalemu. Sikudzamvekanso mawu a chikondwerero a mkwatibwi ndi mkwati pakuti dzikolo lidzasanduka chipululu.”
