11 “Thangwi ine ndisadziwa mwadidi kakamwe pinafuna ine kuna imwe,’ alonga Yahova, ‘ndisafuna kuti mukhale na ntendere, tayu nyatwa,+ ndisafuna kukupasani cidikhiro na pinthu pyadidi kutsogolo.+
12 Imwe munadzandicemera mbamubwera mpaka kuna ine mu phembero, pontho ine ndinadzakubveserani.’+
13 “‘Imwe munadzandisaka mbamundigumana,+ thangwi imwe munadzandisaka na ntima wanu onsene.+
14 Pontho ine ndinadzatawirisa kuti imwe mundigumane,’+ alonga Yahova. ‘Ndinadzagumanya mbumba yanu idaendeswa ku ubitcu mbandikugumanyani pakati pa madzindza onsene na mbuto zidakubalalisani ine,’+ alonga Yahova. ‘Pontho ndinakubweresani pa mbuto idakubulusani ine mbandikuendesani ku ubitcu.’+
15 “Mbwenye imwe musalonga: ‘Yahova atipasa aprofeta ku Bhabhilonya.’
16 “Natenepa, ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova kuna mambo adakhala pa mpando waumambo wa Dhavidhi+ na kuna mbumba yonsene inakhala mu nzinda uno, akuti ndi abale anu adakhonda kuenda ku ubitcu pabodzi na imwe.
17 ‘Ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova wa anyankhondo: “Ine ndinaatumizira supada, njala na utenda,+ pontho ndinaacitisa kuti akhale ninga masambvu akubvunda, akuipa kakamwe akuti nkhabe kwanisa kudyiwa.”’+
18 “‘Ine ndinadzaatcunyusa na supada,+ na njala, pontho na utenda; ndinadzaacitisa kuti akhale cinthu cakugopesa kuna anthu a maumambo onsene pa dziko yapantsi,+ ninga cipangizo ca anthu adapaswa dzedze, pontho konsene kwene kunafuna ine kuabalalisa,+ anthu angaaona anadzagopa, anaimba ciruzwi+ mbaatikana,
19 thangwi iwo nee abvera mafala anga akhatumiza ine kuna iwo na atumiki anga, akuti ndi aprofeta,’ alonga Yahova, ‘ine ndikhaatuma mwakubwereza-bwereza.’+
“‘Mbwenye iwo nee abvera,’+ alonga Yahova.
20 “Na thangwi ineyi, bveserani mafala a Yahova imwe mbumba yonsene idaendeswa ku ubitcu, idabulusa ine ku Yerusalemu mbandiiendesa ku Bhabhilonya.
21 Ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova wa anyankhondo, Mulungu wa Izraeli thangwi ya Akabu mwana wa Kolaya, pontho thangwi ya Zedhekiya mwana wa Maseya akuti asakupangani maprofesiya authambi mu dzina yanga:+ ‘Ine ndinadzaapereka mʼmanja mwa Nabhukodhonozore Mambo wa ku Bhabhilonya, natenepa iye anadzaapha pamaso panu.
22 Pontho pinthu pinafuna kuacitikira pinadzaphatisirwa na anthu a ku Yuda adaendeswa ku ubitcu akuti ali ku Bhabhilonya ninga mafala akupasa dzedze, mbalonga: “Yahova mbakucite ninga pidacitirwa Zedhekiya na Akabu, akuti Mambo wa ku Bhabhilonya aaotca pa moto.”
23 thangwi iwo acita pinthu pyakupasa manyadzo ku Izraeli,+ pidacita iwo upombo na akazi a andzawo, pontho thangwi yakulonga uthambi mu dzina yanga maseze ine nee ndaapanga toera alonge.+
“‘“Ine ndisadziwa, pontho ndine mboni wa pinthu pyenepi,”+ alonga Yahova.’”
24 “Pontho panga Semaya+ wa ku Nelamu kuti:
25 ‘Ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova wa anyankhondo, Mulungu wa Izraeli: “Nakuti iwe watumiza matsamba mu dzina yako kuna mbumba yonsene iri ku Yerusalemu, kuna nyantsembe Sofoniya+ mwana wa Maseya na kuna anyantsembe onsene; matsamba anewa akhalonga kuti:
26 ‘Yahova akusankhula toera ukhale nyantsembe kuti upite pa mbuto ya nyantsembe Yeoyadha, toera ukhale muyangʼaniri wa panyumba ya Yahova, toera uonere madzemwa onsene anacita pinthu ninga aprofeta, pontho toera uamangire pamuti;+
27 mphapo thangwi yanji nee wasandika Yeremiya wa ku Anatote,+ wakuti asacita pinthu ninga mprofeta pamaso panu?+
28 Thangwi iye atumiza mphangwa kuno ku Bhabhilonya zinalonga kuti: “Imwe munakhala kweneko mu pyaka pizinji! Mangani nyumba mbamukhala mwenemu. Tcekani miti yakubala misapo mbamudya misapo yace,+ . . .”’”’”
29 Nyantsembe Sofoniya+ pidaleri iye tsamba ineyi pamaso pa mprofeta Yeremiya,
30 mprofeta Yeremiya atambira mafala awa a Yahova:
31 “Tumiza mphangwa kuna mbumba yonsene iri ku ubitcu mbuapanga: ‘Ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova thangwi ya Semaya wa ku Nelamu: “Nakuti Semaya alonga profesiya maseze ine nee ndantuma, pontho ayesera kukucitisani kukhulupira uthambi,+
32 ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova: ‘Ine ndinadzatcunyusa Semaya wa ku Nelamu na dzindza yace. Nee munthu mʼbodzi wa dzindza yace anadzapulumuka pakati pa mbumba iyi, iye nee anadzaona pinthu pyadidi pinafuna ine kucitira mbumba yanga,’ alonga Yahova, ‘thangwi iye anyengerera anthu toera kusandukira Yahova.’”’”
