AbakwaRegabhi nomzekelo wabo

1Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kuYeremiya ngemihla kaYehoyakim unyana kaYosiya, ukumkani wakwaYuda, lisithi,

2Yiya endlwini yamaRekabhi, uthethe nawo, uwangenise endlwini kaYehova, kwelinye igumbi, uwaseze iwayini.

3Ndandula ke ndathabatha uYashaniya unyana kaYeremiya unyana kaHabhasiniya nabazalwana bakhe noonyana bakhe bonke nendlu yonke yamaRekabhi;

4Ndabazisa endlwini kaYehova, kwigumbi loonyana bakaHanan, unyana kaIgedaliya, umfo wakwaThixo, elalikwigumbi leenkosana elaliphezu kwegumbi likaMahaseya unyana wakhe kaSalum, yaba umgcini-sango:

5Ndabeka phambi koonyana bendlu yamaRekabhi iimbiza ezizele yiwayini nezitya ndaza ndathi kubo: “Selani iwayini.

6Bathi bona, Asiyi kusela wayini, ngokuba uYonadabhi unyana kaRekabhi, ubawo, wasiwisela umthetho, wathi, Ze ningaseli wayini naphakade, nina noonyana benu;

7ningakhi ndlu, ningahlwayeli mbewu, ningatyala nesidiliya, ningabi nanto yakwenza; hlalani ezintenteni yonke imihla yenu; ukuze niphile imihla emininzi emhlabeni eningabaphambukeli kuwo.

8Saliphulaphula ke ilizwi likaYonadabhi unyana kaRekabhi, ubawo, kuko konke awasiwisela umthetho ngako ukuba singaseli wayini yonke imihla yethu, thina, nabafazi bethu, noonyana bethu, neentombi zethu;

9nokuba bangasakhela izindlu ukuba sihlale kuzo; kananjalo asinasidiliya, nantsimi nambewu;

10Ke thina sasihlala ezintenteni, saphulaphula, senza ngako konke awasiwisela umthetho ngako uYonadabhi ubawo.

11Kwathi, ekungeneni kukaNebhukadenetsare ukumkani waseBhabheli kweli lizwe, sathi, Yizani, singene eYerusalem ngenxa yemikhosi yamaKaledi, ngenxa yemikhosi yama-Aram; hlalani eYerusalem.

12Kwafika ilizwi likaYehova kuYeremiya, lisithi:

13Utsho uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Ewe, uthi kumadoda akwaYuda, nakubemi baseYerusalem, Aniwuphulaphulanga na lo mthetho, ukuba niwaphulaphule amazwi am? utsho uYehova.

14Azaliseka amazwi kaYonadabhi, unyana kaRekabhi, awabawisela oonyana bakhe ukuba bangaseli wayini; ngokuba abaseli nanamhla, bawuthobela umthetho kayise kodwa anindiphulaphulanga.

15Ndathumela kuni bonke abakhonzi bam, abaprofeti, abavuka kusasa, babathuma, besithi, Guqukani, elowo endleleni yakhe embi, nilungise iintlondi zenu, ningalandeli thixo bambi; musani ukuzenza khonzani, nihlale ezweni endalinika nina nooyihlo; kodwa anindiphulaphulanga, anaphulaphula nam.

16Ngokuba oonyana bakaYonadabhi unyana kaRekabhi bawugcinile umthetho kayise, abebawisele umthetho ngawo; ke olu hlanga alundiphulaphulanga.

17Ngako oko utsho uYehova, uThixo wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Yabonani, ndiwazisela amaYuda, nabemi bonke baseYerusalem, bonke ububi endibuthethileyo kubo, ngenxa enokuba ndithethile kubo kodwa wabatshabalalisa abeva; Ndababiza, kodwa abazange baphendule.

18Wathi uYeremiya kwindlu yamaRekabhi, Utsho uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Ngokuba uwuthobele umthetho kaYonadabhi uyihlo, wayigcina yonke imithetho yakhe, wenza ngako konke abewise umthetho ngako;

19Ngako oko utsho uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, uYonadabhi, unyana kaRekabhi, akayi kuswela mntu wokuma phambi kwam ngonaphakade.
