Yeremiya 1:1-19
1 Mazgu gha Yeremiya* mwana wa Hilikiya, yumoza wa ŵasembe* ŵa mu Anatoti+ mu charu cha Benjamini.
2 Mazgu gha Yehova ghakiza kwa iyo mu mazuŵa gha Yosiya+ mwana wa Amoni,+ themba la Yuda, mu chaka cha 13 cha kuwusa kwake.
3 Ghakizaso mu mazuŵa gha Yehoyakimu+ mwana wa Yosiya, themba la Yuda, m’paka kuumaliro wa chaka cha 11 cha Zedekiya+ mwana wa Yosiya, themba la Yuda, m’paka apo Yerusalemu wakalutira ku wuzga mu mwezi wachinkhondi.+
4 Mazgu gha Yehova ghakiza kwa ine, ghakati:
5 “Pambere nindakupange iwe mu nthumbo nkhakumanya,*+Uchali undababike* nkhakutuŵiska.*+
Nkhakwimika kuŵa ntchimi ku ŵamitundu.”
6 Kweni ine nkhati: “Awe, Fumu Yikuru Yehova!
Nkhumanya yayi kuyowoya,+ pakuti ndine msepuka.”*+
7 Yehova wakati kwa ine:
“Leka kuyowoya kuti, ‘ndine msepuka.’
Pakuti ulutenge ku wose awo nikutumengeko,Ndipo wamuyowoya vyose ivyo nakuphalira.+
8 Ungopanga chara mawonekero ghawo,+Pakuti ‘Ine nili nawe kukuponoska,’+ wakuti Yehova.”
9 Penepapo Yehova wakanyoloska woko lake na kukhwaska mulomo wane.+ Ndipo Yehova wakati kwa ine: “Naŵika mazgu ghane mu mulomo wako.+
10 Wona, nakwimika muhanya uno kuti uŵe pachanya pa ŵamitundu na maufumu, kuzgura na kuwiskira pasi, kuparanya na kubwangandura, kuzenga na kupanda.”+
11 Mazgu gha Yehova ghakizaso kwa ine, ghakati: “Kasi ukuwonachi Yeremiya?” Ine nkhati: “Nkhuwona munthavi wa khuni la alimondi.”
12 Yehova wakati kwa ine: “Wawona makora, pakuti nili maso pa mazgu ghane kuti nighafiske.”
13 Mazgu gha Yehova ghakiza kwa ine kachiŵiri, ghakati: “Kasi ukuwonachi?” Ine nkhati: “Nkhuwona chiŵiya icho chikubwata, ndipo mulomo wake wasendemukira kutali na kumpoto.”
14 Penepapo Yehova wakati kwa ine:
“Soka lifumirenge kumpotoKwiza pa wose awo ŵakukhala mu charu.+
15 Pakuti Yehova wakuti:+ ‘Nkhuchema mbumba zose za maufumu ghakumpoto,Ndipo ŵizenge, waliyose waŵikenge chitengo chake chaufumuPa mulyango wa vipata vya Yerusalemu,+Kuti walimbane na viliŵa vyake vyose zingilizge,Na misumba yose ya Yuda.+
16 Ndipo nipharazgenge vyeruzgo vyane pa uheni wawo wose,Chifukwa ŵanitaya,+Ŵakotchera vyakununkhira ŵachiuta ŵanyake+Na kusindamira milimo ya mawoko ghawo.’+
17 Kweni iwe vwara zikhore mu chiwuno* mwako,*Uwuke na kuŵaphalira chilichose icho nkhukulangura.
Ungatenthemanga nawo chara,+Mwakuti nileke kukutenthemeska pamaso pawo.
18 Pakuti muhanya uno nakuzgora msumba wa malinga ghakukhora,Mzati wachisulo na chiliŵa chamkuŵa kwimikana na charu chose,+Kwimikana na mathemba gha Yuda na ŵakaronga ŵake,Ŵasembe ŵake na ŵanthu ŵa mu charu.+
19 Ŵalimbanenge nawe nadi,Kweni ŵakuluskenge chara,*Pakuti ‘Ine nili nawe+ kukuponoska,’ wakuti Yehova.”
