Jeremiya 33:1-26
33 Ngesikhatsi Jeremiya asevalelwe eBaleni Labogadzi,+ Jehova waphindze wakhuluma naye kwesibili watsi:
2 “Jehova lowadala umhlaba, Jehova lowawubumba futsi wawusimisa; libito lakhe lokunguJehova, utsi:
3 ‘Ngibite, ngitakuphendvula futsi ngitakutjela tintfo letinkhulu naletingacondzakali, lokutintfo longatati.’”+
4 “Ngobe naku mine Jehova Nkulunkulu wema-Israyeli lengikushoko mayelana netindlu takulelidolobha kanye netigodlo temakhosi akaJuda letidzilitiwe kuze tisetjentiselwe kutivikela kulolutsango lolwakhiwe sitsa kanye nasenkembeni yaso,+
5 namayelana nebantfu labeta kutokulwa nemaKhaledi nangetindzawo letigcwele tidvumbu tebantfu lengibabulele ngitfukutsele futsi ngikwatile, lokubantfu labente tintfo letimbi kakhulu ngaze ngangasalinaki lelidolobha,
6 ngitsi: ‘Ngitawenta kutsi lelidolobha lelulame futsi liphile.+ Ngitabaphilisa bantfu labahlala kulo futsi ngibente babe nekuthula lokukhulu kanye neliciniso.+
7 Ngitababuyisa bantfu bakaJuda kanye nebaka-Israyeli lebebatfunjiwe,+ futsi ngitababusisa njengasekucaleni.+
8 Ngitabageza, ngibente bative bete licala letono labatente kimi,+ futsi ngitabatsetselela tonkhe tono tabo nemaphutsa labawente kimi.+
9 Ligama lalelidolobha litangijabulisa. Lelidolobha litawenta kutsi tonkhe tive temhlaba tingidvumise futsi tingihloniphe nativa ngalokuhle lengikwentele bantfu bami.+ Titawesaba kakhulu futsi tichachatele+ ngenca yetintfo letinhle lengitalentela tona kanye nekuthula lengitalinika kona.’”+
10 “Jehova utsi: ‘Kulo kanye lelive lenitsi alisenamsebenti, alisenamuntfu futsi alisenamfuyo, nakulamadolobha akaJuda nasetitaladini taseJerusalema lesetikhala libhungane, lesetite imfuyo nobe bantfu labahlala khona, kutawuphindze kuvakale
11 umsindvo wekujabula newentfokoto.+ Kutawuvakala nelivi lemkhwenyane nelamakoti, kanye nemavi alabo labatsi: “Bongani Jehova wemabutfo ngobe Jehova muhle;+ lutsandvo lwakhe lolucotfo luhlala kuze kube phakadze!”’+
“‘Batawuletsa iminikelo yekubonga endlini yaJehova,+ ngobe ngitababuyisa bantfu labatfunjiwe bakulelive, kube njengobe bekunjalo ekucaleni,’ kusho Jehova.”
12 “Naku lokushiwo nguJehova wemabutfo: ‘Kulelive lelingenamsebenti, lelite bantfu nobe imfuyo, kanye nakuwo onkhe emadolobha alo, kutawuphindze kube nemadlelo lapho imihlambi yebelusi itawuphumula khona.’+
13 “Jehova utsi: ‘Belusi batawuphindze babale imihlambi yabo emadolobheni lasesifundzeni lesinetintsaba, emadolobheni lasendzaweni lebekile, emadolobheni laseningizimu, eveni lakaBhenjamini, etindzaweni letiseceleni kweJerusalema+ kanye nasemadolobheni akaJuda.’”+
14 “Jehova utsi: ‘Kutawufika emalanga lapho ngitasifeza khona setsembiso lesihle lengasenta mayelana nebantfu baka-Israyeli nebakaJuda.+
15 Ngalawo malanga nangaleso sikhatsi ngitawubeka indlalifa*+ lelungile esihlalweni sebukhosi saDavide, futsi itawehlulela live ngekulunga nangekungakhetsi.+
16 Ngalawo malanga Juda utawusindziswa+ futsi iJerusalema itawuhlala iphephile.+ Lelidolobha litawubitwa ngeligama lelitsi: Jehova Ungumtfombo Wekulunga.’”+
17 “Ngobe Jehova utsi: ‘Angeke kuze kwenteke kungabi nendvodza levela emndenini waDavide letawuhlala esihlalweni sebukhosi saka-Israyeli,+
18 futsi emkhatsini webaphristi labangemaLevi itawuhlale ikhona indvodza letawuma embikwami kuze yente iminikelo yekushiswa lephelele, iminikelo yalokutinhlavu nemihlatjelo.’”
19 Jehova waphindze wakhuluma naJeremiya watsi:
20 “Naku lokushiwo nguJehova: ‘Njengobe ningeke nikhone kuwephula umtsetfo* wami lomayelana nemini nebusuku, angeke nente nekutsi lilanga nenyeti kungaveli ngesikhatsi lesifanele,+
21 ngendlela lefanako, kute lokungephula sivumelwane lengasenta naDavide inceku yami,+ sekutsi kutawuhlale kunendvodzana yakhe letawubusa esihlalweni sakhe sebukhosi,+ futsi kute nalokutawephula sivumelwane lengasenta netinceku tami, lokubaphristi labangemaLevi.+
22 Njengobe nje bantfu bangeke bakhone kubala tinkhanyeti letisesibhakabhakeni,* futsi bangeke bakhone kukala sihlabatsi lesiselwandle, nami-ke ngitayandzisa intalelwane* yenceku yami Davide, ngandzise nemaLevi lenta umsebenti wami.’”
23 Jehova waphindze wakhuluma naJeremiya watsi:
24 “Awukabeva yini labantfu nabatsi: ‘Jehova utayishiya lemindeni lemibili layikhetsa’? Ngako bayabedzelela bantfu bami futsi abasabatsatsi njengesive.
25 “Jehova utsi: ‘Njengobe nje ngibeke umtsetfo* lomayelana nemini nebusuku,+ nemitsetfo lemayelana nelizulu nemhlaba,+
26 kanjalo-ke angeke ngiyilahle intalelwane* yaJakobe nentalelwane yaDavide inceku yami, futsi ngitawukhetsa babusi kubantfwana* baDavide, babuse intalelwane* ya-Abrahama, ya-Isaka neyaJakobe. Ngobe ngitababuyisa labo labatfunjiwe+ futsi ngitabahawukele.’”+
