Jeremia 33

¹Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvikazve rwechipiri kuna Jeremiya, achakapfigirwa muruvazhe rwavarindi, richiti,Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

²Zvanzi naJehovha, iye unozviita, iye Jehovha unozviumba nokuzvisimbisa, Jehovha ndiro zita rake,Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name;

³Danai kwandiri, ndichakupindurai, ndichakuratidzai zvinhu zvikuru zvakavanzika, zvamusingazivi.'Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

⁴Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha Mwari waIsiraeri pamusoro pedzimba dzeguta rino, napamusoro pedzimba dzamadzimambo aJudha, dzakakoromorwa kuzorwa nemirwi yokurwa neminondo,For thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are thrown down by the mounts, and by the sword;

⁵‘Vanouya havo kuzorwa navaKaradhea, asi vanodzizadza nezvitunha zvavanhu vandakauraya nokutsamwa kwangu nehasha dzangu, ndikavanzira guta rino chiso changu nokuda kwokuipa kwavo kwose.'They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but it is fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in mine anger and in my fury, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city.

⁶Tarirai, ndichavavigira mufaro pamuviri nokupora, ini ndichavaporesa; ndichavaratidza rugare rwakawanda nezvokwadi yakawanda.Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.

⁷Ndichadzosa kutapwa kwaJudha nokutapwa kwalsiraeri, ndichavavaka sapakutanga.And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.

⁸Ndichavanatsa pazvakaipa zvavo zvose zvavakanditadzira nazvo, ndichakanganwira zvakaipa zvavo zvose zvavakanditadzira nazvo, nezvavakandidarikira nazvo.And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me.

⁹Guta rino richava kwandiri mbiri yomufaro, nokurumbidzwa nokukudzwa, pamberi pamarudzi ose enyika, achanzwa zvakanaka zvose zvandichavaitira; vachatya nokudedera pamusoro pezvakanaka zvose norugare rwose zvandicharivigira.And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it.

¹⁰Zvanzi naJehovha, Panzvimbo yamunoti yakaparadzwa, haina vanhu kana zvipfuwo, imo mumaguta aJudha, nomunzira dzomuJerusaremu, mangova nedongo, musina vanhu vageremo, kana zvipfuwo, pachanzwikwazveThus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast,

¹¹inzwi romufaro nokufarisisa, inzwi rechikomba nenzwi romwenga, nenzwi ravanoti, `Vongai Jehovha wehondo,' nokuti Jehovha wakanaka, nokuti ngoni dzake dziripo nokusingaperi; uye neravanouya nezvipiriso zvokuvonga mumba maJehovha. Nokuti ndichadzosa kutapwa kwenyika zvive sapakutanga ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD.

¹²Zvanzi naJehovha wehondo, Panzvimbo ino yakaparadzwa, isina vanhu kana zvipfuwo, napamaguta aripo, pachavazve namafuro avafudzi, vanovatisa makwai avo pasi.Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.

¹³Mumaguta enyika yamakomo, mumaguta amapani, mumaguta orutivi rwezasi, napanyika yaBhenjamini, napanzvimbo dzakapoteredza Jerusaremu, nomumaguta aJudha, makwai achapfuurazve pasi poruoko rwounoaverenga, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD.

¹⁴Tarirai, mazuva anouya, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha, andichaita shoko iro rakanaka randakataura pamusoro peimba yaIsiraeri napamusoro peimba yaJudha.Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.

¹⁵Namazuva iwayo, nenguva iyo, ndichamedzera Dhavhidhi davi rokururama; iye ucharuramisira vanhu nokuita zvakarurama panyika.In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.

¹⁶Namazuva iwayo Judha vachaponeswa, Jerusaremu richagara rakachengetwa; zita rarichatumidzwa ndireri, `Jehovha ndiye kururama kwedu.'In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.

¹⁷Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha, `Dhavhidhi haangatongoshaiwi munhu unogara pachigaro choushe cheimba yaIsiraeri;For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;

¹⁸navapirisiti vaRevhi havangashaiwi munhu pamberi pangu ungapisa zvipiriso zvinopiswa nokupisa zvipiriso zvoupfu, nokugara achibayira.'Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.

¹⁹Zvino shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Jeremiya, richiti,And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying,

²⁰Zvanzi naJehovha, `Kana mungagona kuputsa sungano yangu yamasikati nesungano yangu yousiku, kukarega kuva namasikati novusiku nenguva yazvo;Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;

²¹ipapo sungano yangu naDhavhidhi muranda wangu ingaputswawo, akasava nomwanakomana ungabata ushe pachigaro chake choushe; saizvozvowo navaRevhi, vapirisiti, vashumiri vangu.'Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.

²²Hondo yokudenga sezvaisingabviri kuverenga, kana jecha regungwa kuyerwa, saizvozvo ndichawanza vana vaDhavhidhi muranda wangu, navaRevhi vanondishumira.As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.

²³Ipapo shoko raJehovha rakasvika kuna Jeremiya, richiti,Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,

²⁴Haurangariri zvakataurwa navanhu ava, zvavakati, `Marudzi maviri akatsaurwa naJehovha, akarashwa naye?' Saizvozvo vanozvidza vanhu vangu, vachiti havachiri rudzi pamberi pavo.Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.

²⁵Zvanzi naJehovha, `Kana sungano yangu yamasikati novusiku isipo, kana ndisina kutemera denga napasi mirairo;Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;

²⁶ipapo ndicharashawo vana vaJakobho, navaDhavhidhi muranda wangu, kuti ndirege kutora vamwe vavana vake vave vabati vavana vaAbhurahamu nalsaka naJakobho; nokuti ndichadzosa kutapwa kwavo nokuvanzwira nyasha.'Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them.
