UJeremiya lesivumelwano

11Ilizwi elafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini, lisithi: 2 Zwanini amazwia alesisivumelwano,b likhulume ebantwini bakoJuda lakubahlali beJerusalema. 3 Njalo uthi kibo: Itsho njalo INkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Uqalekisiwe umuntu ongalaleli amazwi alesisivumelwano,c 4 engawalayela oyihlo ngosuku engibakhupha ngalo elizweni leGibhithe, esithandweni sensimbi,d ngisithi: Lalelani ilizwi lami,e liwenze njengakho konke engililaya khona; ngalokho lizakuba ngabantu bami,f lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu, 5 ukuze ngimise isifungo engasifunga kuboyihlog ukuthi ngibanike ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, njengalamuhla.h Ngasengiphendula ngathi: Ameni, Nkosi.

6 INkosi yasisithi kimi: Memezela wonke lamazwi emizini yakoJudai lezitaladeni zeJerusalema, usithi: Zwanini amazwi alesisivumelwano,j liwenze.kl 7 Ngoba ngafakaza lokufakaza kuboyihlo ngosuku engabakhuphula ngalo elizweni leGibhithe, kuze kube lamuhla, ngivuka ngovivi ngifakaza,m ngisithi: Lalelani ilizwi lami.n 8 Kodwa kabalalelanga,o kababekanga indlebe yabo, kodwa bahamba, ngulowo lalowo ngobulukhuni benhliziyo yabo embi.p Ngakho ngizaletha phezu kwabo wonke amazwi alesisivumelwano,q engabalaya ukuthi bawenze,r kodwa kabawenzanga.

9 INkosi yasisithi kimi: Kutholakele ugobe phakathi kwabantu bakoJuda,s laphakathi kwabahlali beJerusalema. 10 Sebebuyele eziphambekweni zabokhokho babo,t abala ukuzwa ilizwi lami; bona balandela abanye onkulunkulu ukuze babakhonze; indlu yakoIsrayeli lendlu yakoJuda zisephulile isivumelwano sami engasenza laboyise.u

11 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi: Khangela, ngizaletha okubi phezu kwabo, abangeke baphume kukho; lapho bekhala kimi,v kangiyikubezwa. 12 Khona imizi yakoJuda labahlali beJerusalema bezahamba bakhale kubonkulunkulu ababatshisela impepha, kodwa kabayikubasindisa lokubasindisa ngesikhathi sobubi babo. 13 Ngoba njengenani lemizi yakho babenjalo onkulunkulu bakho,w Juda, lanjengenani lezitalada zeJerusalema limisile amalathi kulokhu okuyangisayo, amalathi okutshisela uBhali impepha. 14 Ngakho wena ungabakhulekeli lababantu,x futhi ungabaphakamiseli ukukhala kumbe umkhuleko,y ngoba kangiyikuzwa ngesikhathi sokukhala kwabo kimi ngenxa yenhlupheko yabo.z

15 Othandekayo wamia ulanib endlini yami, lokhu enze amanyala labanengi,c lenyama engcwele isiyedlule kuwe yini?d Lapho usenza okubi, kulapho uthokoza.e 16 INkosi yabiza ibizo lakho ngokuthi: Isihlahla somhlwathi esiluhlaza esihle ngezithelo ezinhle;f ngomsindo wenhlokomo enkulu izasithungela ngomlilo,g lengatsha zaso zephuke.h 17 Ngoba iNkosi yamabandla, eyakuhlanyelayo,i ikhulumile okubi ngawe, ngenxa yobubi bendlu yakoIsrayeli lobendlu yakoJuda, abakwenzileyo bemelene labo ngokwabo ukungicunula ngokutshisela uBhali impepha.j

Icebo lokubulala uJeremiya

18 INkosi yasingazisa ukuthi ngazi; wasungitshengisa izenzo zabo. 19 Kodwa mina nganginjengewundlu kumbe inkabi kusiwa ekuhlatshweni;k ngoba ngangingazi ukuthi baceba amacebo bemelene lami,l besithi: Asichithe isihlahla lesithelo saso;m asimqume asuken elizweni labaphilayo,o ukuze ibizo lakhe lingabe lisakhunjulwa.p 20 Kodwa, wena Nkosi yamabandla, umahluleli olungileyo, ohlola izinsoq lenhliziyo,rs kangibone impindiselo yakho kibo;t ngoba ngembule udaba lwami kuwe. 21 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi ngamadoda eAnathothi,u adinga impilo yakho,v esithi: Ungaprofethi ngebizo leNkosi,w ukuze ungafi ngesandla sethu.x 22 Ngakho itsho njalo INkosi yamabandla: Khangela, ngizawajezisa; amajaha azakufa ngenkemba, amadodana awo lamadodakazi awo azakufa ngendlala, 23 njalo kakuyikuba lensali kuwo; ngoba ngizaletha okubi phezu kwamadoday eAnathothi,z ngomnyaka wempindiselo yawo.ab
