< Kuungudza kwaJeremia 3 >
1 Ndini munhu akaona kutambudzika neshamhu yehasha dzake.
Yimi umuntu olubonileyo usizi ngenxa yoswazi lokuthukuthela kukaThixo.
2 Akandidzingira kure akaita kuti ndifambe murima panzvimbo yomuchiedza;
Ungixotshile, wangiphumputhekisa emnyameni hatshi ekukhanyeni;
3 zvirokwazvo, akashandura ruoko rwake kuti rundirwise nguva nenguva, zuva rose.
ngempela usengiphakamisele isandla sakhe, waphindaphinda ilanga lonke.
4 Akasakadza ganda rangu nenyama yangu uye akavhuna mapfupa angu.
Usenze ijwabu lami laluphala, wangephula amathambo.
5 Akandikomba akandipoteredza neshungu nokurwadziswa.
Ungihanqile wangihonqolozela ngosizi langobunzima.
6 Akandigarisa murima savanhu vakafa kare kare.
Ungenze ngahlala emnyameni njengalabo abafa kudala.
7 Akandipfigira kuti ndisapunyuka, akandiremedza nengetani.
Ungihonqolozele ngenqaba ukuze ngingaphunyuki; ungibophe nko ngamaketane.
8 Kunyange ndikadana kana kuridza mhere kuti ndibatsirwe, anopfigira munyengetero wangu kunze.
Kuthi lanxa ngimemeza loba ngidinga usizo, awuvalele phandle umkhuleko wami.
9 Akadzivira nzira yangu namatombo; akaminamisa nzira dzangu.
Uvale indlela yami ngamatshe; waphambukisa izindlela zami.
10 Sebere rakavandira, seshumba yakavanda,
Njengebhele licathamile, njengesilwane sicatshile,
11 akandikwekweredza kubva munzira uye akandibvarura-bvarura akandisiya ndisina mubatsiri.
wangihudulela eceleni kwendlela, wangifohloza, wangitshiya ngingelamsizi.
12 Akawembura uta hwake akandiita chinhu chinonangwa nemiseve yake.
Wadonsa idandili lakhe, ngaba yikudla kwemitshoko yakhe.
13 Akabaya mwoyo wangu nemiseve yaibva mugoba rake.
Wangiciba enhliziyweni ngemitshoko evela emxhakeni wakhe.
14 Ndakava chiseko chavanhu vangu vose; vakandihomera nenziyo pazuva rose.
Ngaba yinhlekisa ebantwini bakithi bonke; sengitshona ngiyingoma eyinhlekisa kubo.
15 Akandigutsa nemiriwo inovava, uye akandinwisa nduru.
Ungigqibe ngemithi ebabayo, wanginathisa inyongo.
16 Akagura mazino angu nerukangarabwe; akanditsokodzera muguruva.
Ungihlafunise ukhethe ngamazinyo; wangigiqa ebhuqwini.
17 Ndakatorerwa rugare; ndakakanganwa kuti kubudirira chii.
Ngincitshiwe ukuthula; angisakwazi ingabe iyini impumelelo.
18 Naizvozvo ndinoti, “Kubwinya kwangu kwaenda, uye nezvose zvandanga ndakatarisira kuna Jehovha.”
Ngakho ngithi, “Sebuphelile ubucwazicwazi bami, lakho konke engangikulindele kuThixo.”
19 Ndinorangarira kutambudzika kwangu nokudzungaira kwangu, kurwadziwa uye nenduru.
Ngikhumbula ukuhlupheka lokuntula kwami, ubumunyu lenyongo.
20 Ndinozvirangarira kwazvo, uye mweya wangu wasuruvara mukati mangu.
Konke ngikukhumbula kamhlophe, umoya wami wephukile.
21 Asi izvi ndinozvirangarira mupfungwa uye naizvozvo ndine tariro:
Kodwa ngikhumbula lokhu ngibe lethemba:
22 Nokuda kwerudo rukuru rwaJehovha, hatina kuparadzwa, nokuti tsitsi dzake hadzitongoperi.
Ngenxa yothando olukhulu lukaThixo kasibhujiswanga, ngoba isihawu sakhe kasipheli.
23 Itsva mangwanani oga oga, kutendeka kwenyu kukuru.
Siba sitsha ukusa kwamalanga; kukhulu ukuthembeka kwakho.
24 Ndinoti kumwoyo wangu, “Jehovha ndiye mugove wangu; naizvozvo ndichamumirira.”
Ngiyazitshela ngithi, “UThixo uyisabelo sami; ngakho ngizalindela yena.”
25 Jehovha akanaka kuna avo vanovimba naye, kumunhu anomutsvaka;
UThixo ulungile kulowo omethembayo, kulowo omdingayo;
26 chinhu chakanaka kumirira ruponeso rwaJehovha unyerere.
kuhle ukulinda ngokuthula, ukulindela insindiso kaThixo.
27 Chinhu chakanaka kuti munhu atakure joko achiri mudiki.
Kuhle ukuthi umuntu alithwale ijogwe ngesikhathi esesemutsha.
28 Ngaagare ari oga anyerere, nokuti Jehovha ndiye akariturika paari.
Kahlale yedwa ngokuthula, ngoba uThixo ulibeke phezu kwakhe.
29 Ngaavige chiso chake muguruva, zvimwe tariro ichiripo.
Kembele ubuso bakhe ethulini, mhlawumbe ithemba lizakuba khona.
30 Ngaape dama rake kumunhu anomurova, uye ngaazadzwe nenyadzi.
Kaphe isihlathi sakhe kulowo ofuna ukumhlankala, agcwale ihlazo.
31 Nokuti vanhu havangaraswi naIshe nokusingaperi.
Ngoba uThixo kabalahli abantu kuze kube nini lanini.
32 Kunyange achiuyisa kusuwa, achanzwira hake tsitsi, rukuru sei rudo rwake rusingaperi.
Loba engaletha ubuhlungu, uzatshengisa uzwelo, lukhulu kakhulu uthando lwakhe olungapheliyo.
33 Nokuti haafariri kuuyisa kurwadziwa kana kusuwa kuvana vavanhu.
Ngoba kehliseli ukuhlupheka losizi ebantwini ngokuthanda.
34 Kutsikira pasi petsoka vasungwa vose venyika,
Ukuhlifiza ngezinyawo zonke izibotshwa elizweni,
35 kurambira munhu kodzero yake pamberi peWokumusoro-soro,
ukuncitsha umuntu amalungelo akhe phambi koPhezukonke,
36 kutadzisa munhu kuwana kururamisirwa kwake ko, Ishe haangaoni zvinhu zvakadai here?
ukungahluleli kuhle, kambe uThixo uyabe engaziboni izinto ezinjalo na?
37 Ndiani angataura akaita kuti zviitike kana Ishe asina kuzvirayira?
Ngubani ongatsho ulutho lwenzakale nxa lungavunyelwanga nguThixo na?
38 Ko, hazvibvi mumuromo weWokumusoro-soro here zvose zvakaipa nezvinhu zvakanaka zvinouya?
Akuveli emlonyeni woPhezukonke ukuthi kuyehla inhlupheko lezinto ezinhle na?
39 Ko, munhu mupenyu anonyunyutirei kana arangwa nokuda kwezvivi zvake?
Pho kungani umuntu ophilayo esola nxa ejeziselwa izono zakhe na?
40 Ngatinzverei nzira dzedu uye ngatidziedzei, uyewo ngatidzokerei kuna Jehovha.
Kasilingeni njalo sihlole izindlela zethu, sibuyele kuThixo.
41 Ngatisimudzei mwoyo yedu namaoko edu kuna Mwari ari kudenga, tigoti:
Asiphakamiseleni inhliziyo lezandla zethu kuNkulunkulu ezulwini sithi:
42 “Takatadza uye takakumukirai uye imi hamuna kukanganwira.
“Sonile sahlamuka, njalo kawusithethelelanga.
43 “Makazvifukidza nokutsamwa mukatidzingirira; makauraya musinganzwiri ngoni.
Uzigubuzele ngolaka waxhumana lathi; ubhubhisile ungelazwelo.
44 Makazvifukidza negore kuti kurege kuva nomunyengetero ungasvikako.
Uzisibekele ngeyezi ukuze kungafinyeleli mkhuleko kuwe.
45 Makatiita marara netsvina pakati pendudzi.
Usenze saba ngamanyala lengcekeza phakathi kwezizwe.
46 “Vavengi vedu vose vakashama miromo yavo kwazvo kuti vatituke.
Izitha zethu zonke zivule imilomo yazo zezwakala zisihoza.
47 Takawirwa nokutya uye takateyiwa nehunza, kuparara nokuparadzwa kukuru.”
Sesihlukuluzwe yikuthuthumela lokukhilikithela, ukudilika lokubhidlika.”
48 Hova dzemisodzi dzinoyerera kubva mumaziso angu, nokuti vanhu vangu vaparadzwa.
Imifula yezinyembezi iyajuluka emehlweni ami ngoba abantu bakithi babhujisiwe.
49 Meso angu acharamba achiyerera misodzi, pasina zvinoyamura,
Amehlo ami azajuluka kokuphela, engelakuphumula,
50 kusvikira Jehovha aringira pasi kubva kudenga akaona.
UThixo aze akhangele phansi esezulwini, angibone.
51 Zvandinoona zvinochemedza mweya wangu, nokuda kwavakadzi vose veguta rangu.
Engikubonayo kuthelela usizi emphefumulweni wami ngenxa yabesifazane bonke bomuzi wakithi.
52 Avo vakanga vari vavengi vangu ini pasina chikonzero vakandivhima seshiri.
Labo ababa yizitha zami kungelasizatho, bangizingela njengenyoni.
53 Vakaedza kundiuraya mugomba uye vakapotsera matombo kwandiri;
Bazama ukuquma impilo yami emgodini bangijikijela ngamatshe;
54 mvura zhinji yakafukidza musoro wangu, uye ndakafunga kuti ndava pedyo nokufa.
amanzi asibekela ikhanda lami, ngabona ukuthi okwami sekuphelile.
55 Ndakadana zita renyu, imi Jehovha, ndiri mugomba rakadzika.
Ngalimemezela ibizo lakho, Oh Thixo, ngisekujuleni komgodi.
56 Makanzwa kukumbira kwangu: “Regai kudzivira nzeve dzenyu pandinochemera rubatsiro.”
Wezwa ukuncenga kwami: “Ungavali indlebe zakho nxa ngikhalela ukwenyulwa.”
57 Makaswedera pedyo pandakakudanai, mukati, “Usatya.”
Wasondela lapho ngikumemeza, wathi kimi, “Ungesabi.”
58 Haiwa Ishe, makandireverera mhaka yangu; makadzikinura upenyu hwangu.
Oh Thixo, wasamukela isikhalazo sami; wahlenga ukuphila kwami.
59 Makaona imi Jehovha, zvakaipa zvandakaitirwa. Nditongerei mhaka yangu!
Ububonile Thixo, ububi obenziwe kimi. Ngisekela kulobubunzima!
60 Makaona udzamu hwokutsva kwavo, idzo rangano dzavo dzose pamusoro pangu.
Usubonile ukujula kokusonga kwabo, lamacebo abo wonke ngami.
61 Haiwa Jehovha, makanzwa kutuka kwavo, idzo rangano dzavo dzose pamusoro pangu,
Awu Thixo, uzwile inhlamba zabo, wonke amacebo abo ngami,
62 dzinozevezerwa nokungurumwa navavengi vangu pamusoro pangu zuva rose.
ukunyenyeza lokungunguna kwabo ngami ukusa kwamalanga.
63 Tarirai kwavari! Vakagara kana kumira, vanondituka nenziyo dzavo.
Ake ubabone! Bahlezi kumbe bajamile, bayangihleka ngezingoma zabo.
64 Varipidzirei zvakavafanira, imi Jehovha, zvakaitwa namaoko avo.
Awu Thixo, akubaphindisele ngokubafaneleyo, ngalokho okwenziwe yizandla zabo.
65 Isai chidziro pamwoyo yavo, uye kutuka kwenyu ngakuve pamusoro pavo!
Basibekele ngelembu ezinhliziyweni zabo, isiqalekiso sakho sehlele phezu kwabo!
66 Vadzinganisei makatsamwa muvaparadze, vabve pasi pamatenga aJehovha.
Xhumana labo ngolaka, ubabhubhise ngaphansi kwamazulu kaThixo.
