Uyeremiya 5 XHO75

Izono zeYerusalem nokuya kuyihlela

1 Zityhutyheni izitrato zaseYerusalem; khanikhangele, nazi, nifune ezindaweni zayo zembutho, ukuba nomfumana na umntu, ukuba ukho na umntu owenza ngokusesikweni, ofuna ukunyanisa: ndoyixolela.

2 Nokuba bathi, Ehleli nje uYehova, boba bafunga bexoka.

3 Yehova, amehlo akho àkajonge ekunyaniseni, yini na? Ùyababetha, abevi ntlungu; ùyabagqibela kuphele, abavumi ukuthethiswa; babenza ngwanyalala ubuso babo ngaphezu kwengxondorha, àbavumi ukubuya.

4 Ndathi mna, Zizisweli zodwa zona, zimathile; ngokuba abayazi indlela kaYehova, nesiko loThixo wabo.

5 Ndokha ndiye kwabakhulu, ndithethe nabo; ngokuba bayayazi bona indlela kaYehova, isiko loThixo wabo; ke bona bayaphúle kunye idyokhwe, baziqhawula izitropu.

6 Ngenxa yoko iyababulala ingonyama yasehlathini, iyabadlavula ingcuka yasezinkqantosini, ingwe ilalela imizi yabo; bonke abo baphuma kuyo bayaqwengwa; ngokuba luninzi ukreqo lwabo, kuninzi ukuphamba kwabo.

7 Ndothini na ukukuxolela? Oonyana bakho bandishiyile, bafunga abangethixo; ndabafungisa, ke bakrexeza, bathi ngunga endlwini yamahenyukazi.

8 Bayazíbela njengeenkunzi zamahashe ezityetyisiweyo, elowo ukhonyela umfazi wommelwane wakhe.

9 Mandingàveleli na ke ngenxa yezo zinto? utsho uYehova; ungàphindezeli na ke umphefumlo wam, kuhlanga olunje?

10 Nyukani ezindongeni zayo, nonakalise; kodwa ningagqibeli kuphele; susani amasebe ayo, ngokuba engengakaYehova.

11 Ngokuba itshinizile kakhulu kum indlu kaSirayeli nendlu kaYuda, utsho uYehova.

12 Bayamkhanyela uYehova; bathi, Asinguye, àbuyi kusifikela ububi, asiyi kubona krele nandlala;

13 abaprofeti baya kuba ngumoya; othethayo akakho kubo; makwenjiwe njalo kubo.

14 Ngako oko utsho uYehova, uThixo wemikhosi, ukuthi, Ngenxa enokuba nilithetha elo lizwi, yabona, ndiwenza umlilo amazwi am emlonyeni wakho, naba bantu babe ziinkuni, ubadle.

15 Yabona, ndifikisa phezu kwenu, ndlu kaSirayeli, uhlanga lwakude, utsho uYehova; luhlanga oluqinileyo, luhlanga oludala, luhlanga oluntetho ungayaziyo, ongayivayo into oluyithethayo.

16 Umphongolo walo unjengengcwaba elivulekileyo; bonke bephela bangamagorha.

17 Luya kukudla ukuvuna kwakho nesonka sakho; luya kubadla oonyana bakho neentombi zakho; luya kuyidla impahla yakho emfutshane neenkomo zakho; luya kuwudla umdiliya wakho nomkhiwane wakho; luya kuyiviva ngekrele imizi yakho enqatyisiweyo, okholose ngayo.

18 Noko ke ngaloo mihla, utsho uYehova, andiyi kunigqibela kuphele.

19 Kuthi, xa nithi, UYehova uThixo wethu uzenzeleni na ezo zinto zonke kuthi? ùze uthi kubo, Njengokuba nindishiyile mna, nakhonza oothixo bolunye uhlanga ezweni lenu, kwangokunjalo niya kukhonza abasemzini ezweni elingelenu.

20 Kuxeleni oku endlwini kaYakobi, nikuvakalise kwaYuda, nithi,

21 Khanive oku, bantu bazizidenge, bangenantliziyo; banamehlo, bengaboni; baneendlebe, bengeva.

22 Mna anindoyiki na? utsho uYehova; anizibhijabhiji na ebusweni bam, mna ndiyibekileyo intlabathi yangumda wolwandle, yangummiselo ongunaphakade olungàwugqithiyo? Ayalatyuza amáza alo, angabi nakwenza nto; agqume, angawugqithi.

23 Ke aba bantu banentliziyo eyinjubaqa, eneenkani; bakreqile bemka.

24 Àbatsho nokuthi ezintliziyweni zabo, Makhe soyike uYehova uThixo wethu, osinika imvula ethambisayo nevuthisayo ngexesha elililo; osigcinela iiveki ezimisiweyo zasekwindla.

25 Izenzo zenu ezigwenxa zizisunduzile ezo zinto, izono zenu zikuthintele kuni okulungileyo.

26 Ngokuba kufunyanwa abangendawo phakathi kwabantu bam; bayalalela ngokuncathama kwabathiyeli, benza isihogo, babambisa abantu.

27 Njengendlwane izele ziintaka, zinjalo izindlu zabo ukuzala yinkohliso; ngenxa yoko bakhulile baba zizityebi.

28 Batyebile, bagudile; kananjalo bagqithisele ngezinto ezimbi; ityala àbalilungisa, ityala leenkedama, ukuze zibe nempumelelo; àbaligwebi ityala lamahlwempu.

29 Ndingàveleli na ke ngenxa yezo nto? utsho uYehova; ùngaphindezeli na umphefumlo wam kuhlanga olunje?

30 Kwenziwa into emangalisayo, ebanga amanwele ezweni:

31 àbaprofeti baprofeta ngobuxoki, nababingeleli banobukhosi ngezandla zabo; abantu bam ke bathanda ukuba kube njalo. Niya kuthini na ke ekupheleni kwako oko?
