< Yeremia 5 >
1 “Pandeni na kushuka katika mitaa ya Yerusalemu, tazameni pande zote na mtafakari, tafuteni katika viwanja vyake. Kama mtaweza kumpata hata mtu mmoja tu atendaye kwa uaminifu na kutafuta kweli, nitausamehe mji huu.
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Jerusalemi kumapima ne'onse kantamima me'nefine, vahe'ma atruma nehaza kumapinena tamagareta ufre efre huta fatgo vahe'ma mani'nesagura hakevagareho. Hagi ana'ma nehuta fatgo avu'ava'za nehuno tamage avu'ava zanke'ma nehania vahe'ma mago'ma keta eri fore'ma hanage'na, Jerusalemi rankumara kumi'a atrentegahue.
2 Ingawa wanasema, ‘Kwa hakika kama Bwana aishivyo,’ bado wanaapa kwa uongo.”
Hagi kasefa huno mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo agifi huvempa nehune nehazanagi, zamagra havige nehaze.
3 Ee Bwana, je, macho yako hayaitafuti kweli? Uliwapiga, lakini hawakusikia maumivu, uliwapondaponda, lakini walikataa maonyo. Walifanya nyuso zao kuwa ngumu kuliko jiwe nao walikataa kutubu.
Ra Anumzamoka tamage avu'ava zanke'ma nehaza vaheku kavua antenka nehakane. Kagra vaheka'a sefura zaminka zamazeri fatgo nehananagi ana zankura zamagesa ontahi'naze. Kagra knazanteti zamazeri haviza hu'nananagi, Kagrama zamazeri fatgoma hu'zankura zamavesra hu'ne. Zamavugosamo'a hankavetino havegna hu'nege'za, zamagu'ama rukrahe'ma hu'zankura zamavesra nehaze.
4 Ndipo nikasema, “Hawa ni maskini tu; wao ni wapumbavu, kwa maana hawaijui njia ya Bwana, sheria ya Mungu wao.
Ana hige'na nagra amanage hu'na hu'noe. E'ina vahera zamunte omaneno antahintahizamia omane vaheki'za, Ra Anumzamofo avu'ava zana ke'za antahi'za osu'naze. Ana nehu'za zamagri Anumzamo'ma amage anteho huno'ma hu'nea avu'ava zane tra kenena amagera nontaze.
5 Kwa hiyo nitakwenda kwa viongozi na kuzungumza nao, hakika wao wanaijua njia ya Bwana, sheria ya Mungu wao.” Lakini kwa nia moja nao pia walikuwa wameivunja nira na kuvivunja vifungo.
E'ina hu'neanki'na nagra vu'na kva vahezamine ome keaga hu'na kegahue. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamofo avu'avaene Anumzazmimofo tra kenena keza antahiza hu'naze. Hianagi ana kva vahe'mo'za zamagranena Anumzamo'ma zami'nea eri'zana e'nori'za Agri nanekea rutagre'za agorga'a omani'naze.
6 Kwa hiyo simba kutoka mwituni atawashambulia, mbwa mwitu kutoka jangwani atawaangamiza, chui atawavizia karibu na miji yao, ili kumrarua vipande vipande yeyote atakayethubutu kutoka nje, kwa maana maasi yao ni makubwa, na kukengeuka kwao kumekuwa ni kwingi.
E'ina'ma hu'nazagu huno zafa tanopafinti laonimo eno eme zamahe nefrisigeno, hagage kokampinti afi kramo eno eme zamazeri haviza hugahie.

Na'ankure keontahi kefo zamavu zamava hu'nazagu anara hugahie.
7 “Kwa nini niwasamehe? Watoto wenu wameniacha na kuapa kwa miungu ambayo si miungu. Niliwapatia mahitaji yao yote, lakini bado wamefanya uzinzi na kusongana katika nyumba za makahaba.
Ra Anumzamo'a huno, tamagrira kumira atre oramantegahue. Na'ankure tamagri mofavremo'za zamefi hunenami'za, anumzana omani'neanagi amne zante huvempa hu'naze. Nagra ne'zana zamuge'za nezamu hu'nazanagi, zamagra monko avu'avaza nehu'za monko avu'ava zama nehaza nontega erintagu hu'za vu'naze.
8 Wamelishwa vizuri, kama farasi waume wenye tamaa nyingi, kila mmoja akimlilia mke wa mwanaume mwingine.
Zamagra ve hosi afu'mo'a a' hosi afu negegeno agafi neheanka hu'za, tava'ozamire'ma nemaniza vahe'mokizmi a'nea ke zamanunu nehaze.
9 Je, nisiwaadhibu kwa ajili ya hili?” asema Bwana. “Je, nisijilipizie kisasi juu ya taifa kama hili?
Ra Anumzamo'a huno, E'inahu zamavu zamava zantera hazenke zamigahue. Nagra tamagerfa hu'na tamagrama hazankna avu'ava zama hanaza vahera knazana zami'na zamazeri havizana nosu'na, e'inahu avu'ava zama nehaza vahera nona huo zamantegahufi?
10 “Piteni katika mashamba yake ya mizabibu na kuyaharibu, lakini msiangamize kabisa. Pogoeni matawi yake, kwa kuwa watu hawa sio wa Bwana.
Tamagra ha' vahe'mota Juda vahe waini hozafi tinkante tinkante nevuta ragama rente'nesiana eri haviza nehuta, osi'a netreta waini azankuna tamimo'ma havizama hu'neniana akafrita eri atreho. Na'ankure zamagra ana vahera Ra Anumzamo'na vahera omani'naze.
11 Nyumba ya Israeli na nyumba ya Yuda wamekuwa si waaminifu kwangu kamwe,” asema Bwana.
Hagi Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahemo'zanena Nagrira zamefi hunami vagare'naze huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
12 Wamedanganya kuhusu Bwana. Wamesema, “Yeye hatafanya jambo lolote! Hakuna dhara litakalotupata; kamwe hatutaona upanga wala njaa.
Israeli vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofonkura havige hu'za, Agra mago zana hunoranteno, hazenke zana atresigeno tagritera omegahie. Ana nehuno ha' zane agatonto zanena atre'nigeno omegahie hu'za nehaze.
13 Manabii ni upepo tu, wala neno halimo ndani yao, kwa hiyo hayo wayasemayo na yatendeke kwao.”

14 Kwa hiyo hili ndilo asemalo Bwana Mungu Mwenye Nguvu Zote: “Kwa sababu watu hawa wamesema maneno haya, nitayafanya maneno yangu vinywani mwenu kuwa moto, na watu hawa wawe kuni zinazoliwa na huo moto.
Ana hu'negu huno Monafi sondia vahe'mokizmi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno hu'ne. Vahemo'zama e'inahu kema nehaza agafare Jeremaiaga kagipi Nagra nanekeni'a antesanugenka huama nehanankeno, kagipintira teve nefakna huno atiramino, tevema teaza huno ana vahera tesige'za akrukru hu'za teveregahaze.
15 Ee nyumba ya Israeli,” asema Bwana, “Ninaleta taifa toka mbali dhidi yako, taifa la kale na linaloendelea kudumu, taifa ambalo lugha yao huijui, wala msemo wao huwezi kuuelewa.
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagra ru kazigati ha' vahe'ma zamavare'na esuana hankavenentake vaheki'za korapa knafi mani'za e'naza vahe zamavare'na a'nena maka Israeli vahe'mota hara eme huramantegahaze. Ana vahe'mokizmi zamagerura tamagra ontahi nazankita kema hanazana antahi amara osugahaze.

17 Watayaangamiza mazao yenu na chakula chenu, wataangamiza wana wenu na mabinti zenu; wataangamiza makundi yenu ya kondoo na ya ngʼombe, wataangamiza mizabibu yenu na mitini yenu. Kwa upanga wataangamiza miji yenye maboma mliyoitumainia.

18 “Hata hivyo katika siku hizo, sitakuangamiza kabisa,” asema Bwana.
Hianagi ana knafima huzamantenuge'za e'za eme tamazeri havizama hanaza ha' vahe'mo'za, ana makara tamahe fanane huvaga oregahaze huno Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
19 “Nao watu watakapouliza, ‘Kwa nini Bwana, Mungu wetu ametufanyia mambo haya yote?’ utawaambia, ‘Kama vile mlivyoniacha mimi na kutumikia miungu migeni katika nchi yenu wenyewe, ndivyo sasa mtakavyowatumikia wageni katika nchi ambayo si yenu.’

20 “Itangazie nyumba ya Yakobo hili na ulipigie mbiu katika Yuda:
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahe'enena amanage hunka zamasamio.
21 Sikieni hili, enyi watu wapumbavu, msio na akili, mlio na macho lakini hamwoni, mlio na masikio lakini hamsikii:
Kea ontahi neginagi vahe'mota kama antahiho. Tamagrira tamavua me'neanagi tamavua nonketa, tamagesa me'neanagi nanekea nontahize.
22 Je, haiwapasi kuniogopa mimi?” asema Bwana. “Je, haiwapasi kutetemeka mbele zangu? Niliufanya mchanga kuwa mpaka wa bahari, kizuizi cha milele ambacho haiwezi kupita. Mawimbi yanaweza kuumuka, lakini hayawezi kuupita; yanaweza kunguruma, lakini hayawezi kuuvuka.
Tamagra nahigeta Nagrira nagesga nosuta, Nagri navurera antri nehuta korora huta tamarena noraze.

23 Lakini watu hawa wana mioyo ya ukaidi na ya uasi, wamegeukia mbali na kwenda zao.

24 Wao hawaambiani wenyewe, ‘Sisi na tumwogope Bwana Mungu wetu, anayetupatia mvua za masika na za vuli kwa majira yake, anayetuhakikishia majuma ya mavuno kwa utaratibu.’

26 “Miongoni mwa watu wangu wamo walio waovu wanaovizia kama watu wanaotega ndege, na kama wale wanaoweka mitego kuwakamata watu.
