Jer 27 - Ndebele Bible (iBhayibhili Elingcwele) 1978

Umfanekiso wamajogwe

1Ekuqaleni kokubusa kukaZedekiya indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakoJuda, lelilizwi lafika kuJeremiya livela eNkosini lathi:2 Kho 24:18–20; 2 Lan 36:11–13

2INkosi ithi kimi: Zenzele imichilo lamajogwe, ukugaxe entanyeni yakho.

3Thumela ilizwi enkosini yaseEdoma leyaseMowabi leyaseAmoni leyaseTire leyaseSidoni, ngezithunywa ezifika eJerusalema zisiza kuZedekiya, inkosi yakoJuda,

4uzilaye ukuba zithi emakhosini azo: INkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ithi: Lizawatshela lokhu amakhosi enu,

5lithi: Kuyimi ngamandla ami amakhulu langengalo yami elamandla engenze umhlaba, labantu, lenyamazana ezikhona emhlabeni, ngiwunika lowo engimbona ukuthi ufanele.

6Sengiwanikele wonke lamazwe kuNebukadineza inkosi yaseBabiloni, inceku yami, ngimnikile futhi inyamazana zeganga ukuba zimsebenzele.

7Zonke izizwe zizamsebenzela yena lendodana yakhe, lomzukulu wakhe, kuze kufike isikhathi sokuchithwa kwelizwe lakhe; kuzakuthi izizwe ezinengi lamakhosi amakhulu bamenze isigqili.

8Kodwa uba isizwe ingabe umbuso ungamsebenzeli uNebukadineza inkosi yaseBabiloni, uthobele ijogwe lenkosi yaseBabiloni, ngizatshaya lesosizwe ngempi langendlala langomkhuhlane, ngize ngisinikele esandleni sakhe ngokupheleleyo, kutsho iNkosi.

9Ngakhoke lingabalaleli abaprofethi benu, labavumisayo benu, labaphuphi benu, lezangoma zenu, labathakathi benu abathi kini: Kaliyikuyisebenzela inkosi yaseBabiloni.

10Ngoba batshumayela amanga kini, ukuba lisuswe elizweni lakini, ngilixotshe kilo, libhubhe.

11Kodwa isizwe esizakuthobela inkosi yaseBabiloni, siyisebenzele, ngizasiyekela elizweni laso, ukuba sililime, sakhe kulo, kutsho iNkosi.

12Ngakhuluma kuZedekiya inkosi yakoJuda ngalawomazwi ngathi: Thobelani ijogwe lenkosi yaseBabiloni, liyisebenzele labantu bayo, ukuze lisile.

13Lizafelani wena labantu bakho ngempi langendlala langomkhuhlane, njengokutsho kweNkosi mayelana lesizwe esingayikuyisebenzela inkosi yaseBabiloni na?

14Ungawalaleli amazwi abaprofethi abathi kuwe: Kaliyikuyisebenzela inkosi yaseBabiloni; ngoba balitshumayeza amanga.

15Kangibathumanga mina, kutsho iNkosi, kodwa batshumayela amanga ngebizo lami, ukuze ngilixotshe, libhubhe wena kanye lalabo abaprofethi abalitshumayezayo.

16Ngasengikhuluma kubapristi lakubo bonke abantu ngisithi: INkosi ithi: Lingawalaleli amazwi abaprofethi benu abalitshumayeza besithi: Izitsha zethempeli zizabuyiswa masinyane zivela eBabiloni; ngoba lokhu kungamanga abalitshumayezayo.

17Lingabalaleli; sebenzelani inkosi yaseBabiloni ukuze lisile. Uzachithelwani lumuzi na?

18Uba bengabaprofethi, belalo ilizwi leNkosi, kabayincenge iNkosi yamabandla, ukuba izitsha eziseleyo ethempelini, lesigodlweni senkosi yakoJuda, laseJerusalema, zingasiwa eBabiloni.

19Ngoba iNkosi yamabandla ithi ngezinsika, langolwandle, langezinyawo, langezinye izitsha zethempeli eziseleyo kulumuzi,

20angazithathanga uNebukadineza inkosi yaseBabiloni ekuthumbeni kwakhe eJerusalema uJekoniya indodana kaJehoyakimi, inkosi yakoJuda, lazo zonke izikhulu zakoJuda lezeJerusalema, ebasa eBabiloni;

21iNkosi yamabandla, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ithi mayelana lezitsha eziseleyo ethempelini, lasesigodlweni senkosi yakoJuda, leJerusalema:

22Zizasiwa eBabiloni, zihlale khona kuze kufike usuku lokuzikhumbula kwami, kutsho iNkosi. Ng’khona ngizakuzibuyisa kulindawo.
