Selemaia 46
1 Ko e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe hoko kia Selemaia ko e palōfita ki he kakai Senitaile.
Ilizwi leNkosi elafika kuJeremiya umprofethi limelene labezizwe;
2 Ki ʻIsipite, pea ki he tau ʻa Felo Niko ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi ʻi Kakemisi, ʻaia naʻe taaʻi ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi hono fā ʻoe taʻu ʻo Sihoiakimi ko e foha ʻo Siosaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta.
limelene leGibhithe, limelene lebutho likaFaro Neko inkosi yeGibhithe, elalingasemfuleni iYufrathi, eKarikemishi, alitshayayo uNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, ngomnyaka wesine kaJehoyakhimi, indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda:
3 “Mou fekau ke ʻai ʻae fakaū mo e pā, pea fakaofiofi mai ki he tau.
Hlelani ihawu lesihlangu, lisondele empini.
4 ʻAi ʻae nāunau ki he fanga hoosi, pea mou fakaheka ʻae kau heka hoosi, pea tuʻu mai mo homou tatā tau; fakangingila ʻae ngaahi tao, ʻai ʻae ngaahi kofutau.
Bophelani amabhiza, ligade, bagadi bamabhiza, lizimise lilezingowane, lilole imikhonto, ligqoke amabhatshi ensimbi.
5 Ko e hā kuo u mamata ai kiate kinautolu, kuo nau manavahē, pea fakaholomui? Kuo tā hifo honau kau mālohi, kuo nau hola vave, pea ʻikai sio ki mui: he naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻae manavahē,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.
Ngibaboneleni betshaywa luvalo, bebuyela emuva? Lamaqhawe abo ephulaphuliwe, ayabaleka ngesiqubu, kawanyemukuli emuva; kulokwesaba inhlangothi zonke, itsho iNkosi.
6 “ʻOua naʻa tuku ke puna atu ʻae veʻe vave, pe hao ʻae tangata mālohi; te nau tūkia, pea tō ki he potu tokelau, ki he veʻe vai ʻo ʻIufaletesi.
Olejubane kangabaleki, leqhawe kalingaphunyuki; bazakhubeka bawele ngenyakatho eceleni komfula iYufrathi.
7 Ko hai eni ʻoku ʻalu hake ʻo hangē ko e vai lahi, ʻoku ngaue hono ngaahi vai, ʻo hangē ko e vaitafe?
Ngubani lo okhukhumala njengesifula, omanzi aso aqubuka njengomfula?
8 ʻOku tuʻu hake ʻa ʻIsipite ʻo hangē ko e vai lahi, pea ʻoku ngaue hono ngaahi vai ʻo hangē ko e vaitafe; pea ʻoku ne pehē, ‘Te u ʻalu hake, pea te u ʻufiʻufi ʻae fonua; pea te u fakaʻauha ʻae kolo mo hono kakai.’
IGibhithe ikhukhumala njengesifula, lamanzi aqubuka njengemifula; ithi: Ngizakhukhumala, ngiwusibekele umhlaba, ngichithe umuzi labahlala kiwo.
9 Mou ʻunuʻunu mai ʻae fanga hoosi; pea fakamataliliʻi ʻae ngaahi saliote; pea tuku ke ʻalu atu ʻae kau tangata mālohi ʻi he tau; ko e kau ʻItiopea mo e kau Lipea, ko kinautolu ʻoku puke ʻae fakaū; pea mo e kau Litia, ʻoku toʻo ʻo teke ʻae kaufana.
Yenyukani mabhiza, lihlanye zinqola; kawaphume amaqhawe; amaEthiyophiya, lamaPuti aphatha isihlangu, lamaLudi aphatha anyathela idandili.
10 He ko e ʻaho eni ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻaho ʻoe houhau koeʻuhi ke ne tautea ʻe ia ki hono ngaahi fili: pea ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe he heletā, pea ʻe mākona ia, pea fakakona ʻaki ia honau toto: he ʻoku maʻu ʻe he ʻEiki ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau ʻae feilaulau ʻi he potu tokelau ʻi he vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi.
Ngoba lolu lusuku lweNkosi uJehova wamabandla, usuku lwempindiselo, ukuthi iziphindisele ezitheni zayo; lenkemba izakudla, isuthe, idakwe ligazi labo; ngoba iNkosi uJehova wamabandla ilomhlatshelo elizweni lenyakatho ngasemfuleni iYufrathi.
11 ʻE taʻahine ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻalu hake ki Kiliati ʻo toʻo mai ʻae lolo faitoʻo: ʻe taʻeʻaonga ʻae ngaahi faitoʻo lahi kiate koe; koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te ke moʻui.
Yenyukela eGileyadi, uyethatha ibhalisamu, ntombi emsulwa, ndodakazi yeGibhithe; imithi uyandisela ize, kakulakwelatshwa kuwe.
12 Kuo fanongo ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ki hoʻo mā, pea kuo pito ʻae fonua ʻi he tangi: he kuo fepaki ʻae tangata mālohi mo e tangata mālohi, pea kuo na hinga fakatouʻosi.”
Izizwe zizwile ihlazo lakho, lomhlaba ugcwele ukukhala kwakho; ngoba akhubekile, iqhawe limelene leqhawe, womabili awele phansi ndawonye.
13 Ko e lea naʻe folofola ʻaki ʻe Sihova kia Selemaia ko e palōfita, ki he haʻu ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke taaʻi ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite.
Ilizwi iNkosi eyalikhuluma kuJeremiya umprofethi ngokuza kukaNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni ukutshaya ilizwe leGibhithe:
14 “Mou fakahā ʻi ʻIsipite, pea fakaʻilo ʻi Mikitoli, pea fakahā ʻi Nofe mo Tapanesi: mou pehē, ‘Tuʻumaʻu, pea ke teuteu; koeʻuhi ʻe fakaʻauha takatakai ʻiate koe ʻe he heletā.’
Memezelani eGibhithe, lizwakalise eMigidoli, lizwakalise eNofi leThahaphanesi, lithi: Zimise, uzilungiselele, ngoba inkemba izakudla inhlangothi zonke zakho.
15 Ko e hā kuo tafe atu ai ʻa hoʻo kau mālohi? Naʻe ʻikai te nau tuʻu, koeʻuhi naʻe kapusi ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova.
Kungani amadoda akho alamandla ekhukhuliwe? Kawemanga ngoba iNkosi iwafuqile.
16 Kuo ne fakahingaki ʻae tokolahi, ʻio, kuo nau fetaʻotaʻomi: ko ia naʻa nau fepehēʻaki, ‘Tuʻu pea ke tau toe ʻalu ki hotau kakai, pea ki he fonua naʻe fāʻeleʻi ai ʻakitautolu koeʻuhi ko e heletā ʻae mālohi.’
Yandisa abakhubekayo, yebo, omunye wawela phezu komunye; basebesithi: Sukumani, sibuyele ebantwini bakithi, lelizweni lokuzalwa kwethu, sisuke enkembeni ecindezelayo.
17 Naʻa nau tangi ʻi ai, ‘Ko e longoaʻa pe ʻa Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite; kuo ʻosi ʻae kuonga naʻe tuʻutuʻuni.’
Bamemeza khona, bathi: UFaro inkosi yeGibhithe ungumsindo; udlulise isikhathi esimisiweyo.
18 ʻOku pehē ʻe he tuʻi, “ʻAia ko hono huafa ko Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, hangē ʻoku ou moʻui, ko e moʻoni ʻe hangē ko Tepoa ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, pea hangē ko Kameli ʻi heʻene ofi ki tahi, ʻe pehē ʻene haʻu.
Kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi, obizo layo yiNkosi yamabandla: Isibili njengeThabhori phakathi kwezintaba lanjengeKharmeli ngaselwandle uzafika.
19 ʻE ʻofefine ʻoku nofo ʻi ʻIsipite, teuteu koe ke ke ʻalu ki he fakapōpula: koeʻuhi ʻe fakalala ʻa Nofe, pea ʻe fakaʻauha ke ʻosi hano kakai.
Zenzele izikhali zokuthunjwa, ndodakazi ehlala eGibhithe; ngoba iNofi izakuba yincithakalo, itshiswe, kungabi lomhlali.
20 “ʻOku tatau ʻa ʻIsipite mo e pulu fefine siʻi ʻoku fakaʻofoʻofa ʻaupito, ka ʻoku haʻu ʻae fakaʻauha; ʻoku haʻu ia mei he tokelau.
IGibhithe ilithokazi elihle kakhulu; isibawu siyeza, sivela enyakatho.
21 Pea ʻoku tatau mo e fanga pulu kuo fangapesi ʻa hono kau tangata totongi; pea kuo nau foki ki mui, pea kuo nau hola fakataha: naʻe ʻikai te nau tuʻu mai, koeʻuhi naʻe hoko mai ʻae ʻaho ʻo hoʻonau tuʻutāmaki, pea mo e ʻaho ʻo ʻenau tautea.
Labaqhatshiweyo bayo phakathi kwayo banjengethole lesibaya; ngoba labo baphendukile, babaleka kanyekanye; kabemanga, ngoba usuku lokuhlupheka kwabo lubehlele, isikhathi sempindiselo yabo.
22 ʻE ongo hono leʻo ʻo hangē ko e ʻalu ʻae ngata; he te nau ʻalu atu kiate ia mo e kau tau, te nau haʻu kiate ia, mo e ngaahi toki, ʻo hangē ko e kau tā ʻakau.
Ilizwi layo lizahamba njengenyoka; ngoba bazahamba lebutho, beze kuyo belamahloka, njengabagamuli bezihlahla.
23 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Te nau tuʻusi hifo hono ngaahi vao ʻakau, neongo ʻoku ʻikai faʻa kumi ki ai; koeʻuhi ʻoku nau tokolahi ʻi he fanga heʻe, pea taʻefaʻalaua.
Bagamule ihlathi layo, itsho iNkosi, lanxa lingephenywe, ngoba banengi okwedlula isikhonyane, kabalakubalwa.
24 ʻE fakamaaʻi ʻae taʻahine ʻIsipite; ʻe tukuange ia ki he nima ʻoe kakai mei he tokelau.”
Indodakazi yamaGibhithe izayangeka, izanikelwa esandleni sabantu benyakatho.
25 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ʻoe ngaahi kautau, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli; “Vakai, te u tautea ʻae kakai tokolahi ʻo No, mo Felo, mo ʻIsipite, mo honau ngaahi ʻotua, pea mo honau ngaahi tuʻi; ʻio, ʻa Felo mo kinautolu ʻoku falala kiate ia:
INkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ithi: Khangela, ngizajezisa uAmoni weNo, loFaro, leGibhithe, labonkulunkulu bayo, lamakhosi ayo, yebo uFaro labathembela kuye.
26 Pea te u tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he nima ʻokinautolu ʻoku kumi ki heʻenau moʻui, pea ki he nima ʻo Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, mo e nima ʻo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki: pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, Hili ia ʻe toki fakakakai ia, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻi muʻa.
Ngibanikele esandleni salabo abadinga impilo yabo, lesandleni sikaNebhukadirezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, lesandleni senceku zakhe; lemva kwalokho ihlalwe njengensukwini zendulo, itsho iNkosi.
27 “Kaeʻoua naʻa ke manavahē, ʻE Sēkope ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, pea ʻoua naʻa ke puputuʻu, ʻE ʻIsileli, “He vakai, te u fakamoʻui koe mei he mamaʻo, pea mo ho hako mei he fonua ʻoku nau pōpula ki ai; pea ʻe liliu mai ʻa Sēkope, pea te ne mālōlō, mo fiemālie, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamanavahēʻi ia ʻe ha tokotaha.”
Kodwa wena, ungesabi, nceku yami Jakobe, ungatshaywa luvalo, Israyeli, ngoba khangela, ngizakusindisa usekhatshana, lenzalo yakho elizweni lokuthunjwa kwayo; uJakobe uzaphenduka-ke, athule, onwabe, njalo kakho ozamethusa.
28 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē, ʻE Sēkope ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki: he ʻoku ou ʻiate koe; he te u fakaʻosi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga ʻaia kuo u kapusi koe ki ai: ka ʻe ʻikai te u fakangatangata koe, ka te u tautea siʻi koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te u fakaʻauha ʻaupito koe.”
Wena, ungesabi, nceku yami Jakobe, itsho iNkosi, ngoba ngilawe; ngoba ngizaqeda ngokupheleleyo zonke izizwe engikuxotshele kuzo, kodwa kangiyikukuqeda ngokupheleleyo, ngikukhuze ngokufaneleyo, kodwa kangiyikukuyekela lokukuyekela ungajeziswanga.
