Shoko rakauya kuna Jeremiya richibva kuna Jehovha negore regumi raZedhekia mambo waJudha, riri gore regumi namasere raNebhukadhirezari.The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar.
Zvino nenguva iyo mambo wehondo yeBhabhironi wakanga akakomberedza Jerusaremu; asi muporofita Jeremiya wakanga akapfigirwa muruvazhe rwavarindi, rwakanga ruri mumba mamambo waJudha.For then the king of Babylon’s army besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the king of Judah’s house.
Nokuti Zedhekia mambo waJudha wakanga amupfigira, achiti, Unoporofitireiko uchiti, `Zvanzi naJehovha, tarirai, ndichaisa guta rino muruoko rwamambo weBhabhironi, iye ucharikunda;'For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Wherefore dost thou prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it;
Zedhekia mambo waJudha haangapukunyuki pamaoko avaKaradhea, asi uchaiswa zvirokwazvo muruoko rwamambo weBhabhironi, vachataurirana nemiromo yavo, nokuonana nameso avo;And Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but shall surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes;
iye uchandoisa Zedhekia Bhabhironi, agareko kusvikira ndichimushanyira, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha; kunyange mukarwa navaKaradhea hamungakundi?And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the LORD: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper?
Jeremiya akati, Shoko raJehovha rakauya kwandiri, richiti,And Jeremiah said, The word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
‘Tarira, Hanameri mwanakomana waSharumi, sekuru vako, uchauya kwauri, achiti, Zvitengere munda wangu uri paAnatoti, nokuti ndiwe une simba rokuudzikunura nokuutenga. 'Behold, Hanameel the son of Shallum thine uncle shall come unto thee, saying, Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth: for the right of redemption is thine to buy it.
Naizvozvo Hanameri mwanakomana wasekuru vangu wakauya kwandiri muruvazhe rwavarindi, sezvakarehwa neshoko raJehovha, akati kwandiri, Donditengera hako munda wangu uri paAnatoti, riri munyika yaBhenjamini, nokuti ndiwe unesimba rokugara nhaka, ndiwe unofanira kudzikunura; chizvitengera iwo. Ipapo ndakaziva kuti ishoko raJehovha.So Hanameel mine uncle’s son came to me in the court of the prison according to the word of the LORD, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the country of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine; buy it for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD.
Ndikatenga munda wakanga uri paAnatoti kuna Hanameri mwanakomana wasekuru vangu, ndikamuyerera mari, mashekeri esirivha ane gumi namanomwe.And I bought the field of Hanameel my uncle’s son, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.
Ndikanyora rugwaro rwokutenga, ndikarunamatidza, ndikadana zvapupu, ndikamuyerera mari pachiyero.And I subscribed the evidence, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed him the money in the balances.
Ipapo ndikatora rugwaro rwokutenga, irwo rwakanga rwakanamatidzwa, sezvakarehwa nomurayiro netsika, norumwe rwakanga rwakashama,So I took the evidence of the purchase, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open:
ndikapa Bharuki mwanakomana waNeria, mwanakomana waMaseia, rugwaro rwokutenga, Hanameri mwanakomana wasekuru vangu aripo, nezvapupu zvakanga zvasimbisa rugwaro rwokutenga zviripo, navaJudha vose vakanga vagere muruvazhe rwavarindi varipo.And I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle’s son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.
Ndikaraira Bharuki pamberi pavo, ndichiti,And I charged Baruch before them, saying,
Zvanzi naJehovha wehondo, Mwari waIsiraeri, `Tora magwaro awa okutenga, rugwaro urwu rwokutenga rwakanamatidzwa, norugwaro urwu rwakashama, uzviise mumudziyo wevhu, zvigaremo mazuva mazhinji.'Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Take these evidences, this evidence of the purchase, both which is sealed, and this evidence which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.
Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha wehondo, Mwari waIsiraeri, `Dzimba neminda yemizambiringa zvichazotengwazve munyika ino.'For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Houses and fields and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.
Zvino ndakati ndapa Bharuki mwanakomana waNeria rugwaro rwokutenga, ndikanyengetera kuna Jehovha ndichiti,Now when I had delivered the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed unto the LORD, saying,
Haiwa,Ishe Jehovha tarirai imi makaita denga rose napasi nesimba renyu guru noruoko rwenyu rwakatambanudzwa, hakuna chinhu chingakukonai imi;Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:
imi, munonzwira tsitsi vane zviuru zvamazana, nokutsiva zvakaipa zvamadzibaba muchipfuva chavana vavo vanovatevera, iye mukuru, Mwari unesimba, Jehovha wehondo, ndiro zita rake;Thou shewest lovingkindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is his name,
wakakura panjere, unesimba pakubata, meso ake anosvinurira nzira dzose dzavana vavanhu, kuti ape mumwe nomumwe sezvaakabata, nezvakafanira zvibereko zvamabasa ake;Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:
iye, wakaisa zviratidzo nezvishamiso panyika yeIjipiti kusvikira pazuva ranhasi, pakati paIsiraeri napakati pavamwe vanhu; mukazviitira mbiri sezvazvakaita nezuva ranhasi;Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day, and in Israel, and among other men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day;
mukabudisa vanhu venyu vaIsiraeri panyika yeIjipiti, nezviratidzo nezvishamiso nechanza chine simba, noruoko rwakatambanudzwa, uye nokutyisa kukuru;And hast brought forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with great terror;
mukavapa nyika ino, yamakapikira madzibaba avo kuti muchavapa, iri nyika inoyerera mukaka nohuchi;And hast given them this land, which thou didst swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;
vakapinda, vakaiita yavo; asi havana kuteerera inzwi renyu, kana kufamba nemirairo yenyu; havana kutongoita chinhu chimwe chezvose zvamakavaraira kuti vazviite; naizvozvo makauyisa izvi zvose pamusoro pavo.And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them:
Tarirai, mirwi yokurwa yasvika paguta kuti varikunde; guta raiswa mumaoko avaKaradhea vanorwa naro, nokuda kwomunondo nenzara nehosha yakaipa, zvamakataura zvaitika, tarirai, munozviona.Behold the mounts, they are come unto the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it.
Zvino imi Ishe Jehovha, makati kwandiri, `Chizvitengera munda nemari, udane zvapupu, kunyange zvakadaro guta raiswa mumaoko avaKaradhea.'And thou hast said unto me, O Lord GOD, Buy thee the field for money, and take witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Jeremiya, richiti,Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,
Tarira, ndini Jehovha, Mwari wenyama yose, kunechinhu chingandikona here?Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?
Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha, `Tarira ndichaisa guta rino mumaoko avaKaradhea, nomumaoko aNebhukadhirezari mambo weBhabhironi, iye ucharikunda'Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall take it:
VaKaradhea, vanorwa neguta rino, vachauya vachitungidza guta rino, vachiripisira, pamwechete nedzimba dzavakabayira pamatenga adzo zvinonhuwira kuna Bhaari, nokudururira vamwe vamwari zvipiriso zvinodururwa, kuti vanditsamwise.And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.
Nokuti vana vaIsiraeri navana vaJudha vaingoita zvakaipa zvoga pamberi pangu kubva pahuduku hwavo; nokuti vana vaIsiraeri vakangonditsamwisa bedzi namabasa amaoko avo, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have only done evil before me from their youth: for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith the LORD.
Nokuti guta rino rakamutsa kutsamwa kwangu nehasha dzangu kubva pazuva ravakarivaka kusvikira zuva ranhasi, kuti ndiribvise pamberi pangu,For this city hath been to me as a provocation of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,
nokuda kwezvakaipa zvose zvavana vaIsiraeri navana vaJudha, zvavakaita vachinditsamwisa, ivo namadzimambo avo, namachinda avo, navapirisiti vavo, navaporofita vavo, navanhu vaJudha, navagere Jerusaremu.Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Vakandifuratira, havana kunditarira nezviso zvavo; kunyange ndaivadzidzisa, ndichimuka mangwanani ndichivadzidzisa, asi havana kuteerera nokutenda kurangwa.And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction.
Asi vakaisa zvinonyangadza zvavo muimba yakatumidzwa zita rangu, kuti vaisvibise.But they set their abominations in the house, which is called by my name, to defile it.
Vakavaka mitunhu yaBhaari, iri mumupata womwanakomana waHinomi, kuti vapinzire Moreki vanakomana vavo navanasikana vavo mumoto, chinhu chandisina kuvaraira, kana chandisina kufunga mumoyo mangu, kuti vaite chinhu ichi chinonyangadza, vachitadzisa Judha.And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha Mwari waIsiraeri pamusoro peguta rino, ramunoti rakaiswa muruoko rwamambo weBhabhironi nomunondo, nenzara uye nehosha yakaipa,And now therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning this city, whereof ye say, It shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence;
Tarirai, ndichavaunganidza kunyika dzose kwandakanga ndavadzingira nokutsamwa kwangu nehasha dzangu, uye neshungu dzangu huru, ndichavadzoserazve kunzvimbo ino, nokuvagarisa vakachengetwa.Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:
Ivo vachava vanhu vangu, neni ndichava Mwari wavo.And they shall be my people, and I will be their God:
Ndichavapa moyo mumwe nenzira imwe, kuti vanditye nokusingaperi, vaitirwe zvakanaka ivo, navana vavo vanovatevera.And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:
Ndichaita navo sungano isingaperi, handingadzoki pakuvatevera kuti ndivaitire zvakanaka; ndichaisa kutya mumoyo yavo kuti vanditye, kuti varege kuzotsauka kwandiri.And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.
Zvirokwazvo, ndichavafarira kuti ndivaitire zvakanaka, ndichavasima zvirokwazvo munyika ino nomoyo wangu wose uye nomweya wangu wose.Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha, `Sezvandakauyisa zvakaipa izvi zvikuru zvose pamusoro pavanhu ava, saizvozvowo ndichauyisa pamusoro pavo zvakanaka zvose zvandakavapikira.For thus saith the LORD; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.
Minda ichatengwa munyika ino yamunoti idongo, haina vanhu kana zvipfuwo, yaiswa mumaoko avaKaradhea.'And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Vanhu vachatenga minda nemari, nokunyora magwaro okutenga, nokuanamatidza, nokudana zvapupu, panyika yaBhenjamini, napanzvimbo dzakapoteredza Jerusaremu, nomumaguta aJudha, nomumaguta enyika yamakomo, nomumaguta amapani, nomumaguta orutivi rwezasi; nokuti ndichadzosa kutapwa kwavo, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.Men shall buy fields for money, and subscribe evidences, and seal them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the LORD.
