UJeremiya 38

¹Khona-ke uShefathiya, indodana kaMathani, noGedaliya, indodana kaPhashuri, noJukali, indodana kaShelemiya, noPhashuri, indodana kaMalikhiya, bezwa amazwi uJeremiya awakhuluma kubo bonke abantu, wathi:

²Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Osala kulo muzi uyakufa ngenkemba, nangendlala, nangesifo; kepha ophumela kumaKaledi uyakuphila; ngokuba uyakuba yimpango ukuphila kwakhe, aphile.

³Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Lo muzi uyakunikelwa nokunikelwa esandleni sempi yenkosi yaseBabele, iwuthathe.

⁴Ngakho izikhulu zathi enkosini: “Siyakucela ukuba lo muntu abulawe, ngokuba wenza buthakathaka kanjalo izandla zamaqhawe asele kulo muzi, nezandla zabo bonke abantu, ngokukhuluma amazwi anje, aze enze lo muntu. Hhayi ukufuna inhlalakahle yalaba bantu, kodwa ubuhlungu.

⁵Inkosi uZedekhiya yasisithi: Khangelani, usesandleni senu, ngoba kayisiyo inkosi engenza ulutho phezu kwenu.

⁶Base bemthatha uJeremiya, bamphonsa emthonjeni kaMalikhiya indodana yenkosi, owawusegcekeni letilongo; bamehlisa uJeremiya ngezindophi. Emthonjeni kwakungekho manzi, kodwa udaka; ngakho uJeremiya wacwila odakeni.

⁷U-Ebhedi-Melegi umKushe, omunye wabathenwa owayesendlini yenkosi, wezwa ukuthi bamfake uJeremiya emthonjeni; inkosi yayihlezi esangweni lakwaBenjamini;

⁸U-Ebhedi-Melegi waphuma endlini yenkosi, wakhuluma enkosini, wathi:

⁹Nkosi yami, nkosi, laba bantu benza okubi kukho konke abakwenzayo kuJeremiya umprofethi, amphonsa emthonjeni; futhi unjengobulawa indlala endaweni akhona, ngoba akusekho sinkwa emzini.

¹⁰Inkosi yasilaya uEbhedi-Melegi umKushe, yathi: Thatha lapha amadoda angamatshumi amathathu, ukhuphe uJeremiya umprofethi emgodini engakafi.

¹¹Khona-ke u-Ebhedi-Melegi wathatha amadoda kanye naye, wangena endlini yenkosi ngaphansi komphongolo wengcebo, wathatha khona izindwangu ezigugile namanikiniki amadala wazehlisela emgodini kuJeremiya ngezindophi.

¹²U-Ebhedi-Melegi umKushe wathi kuJeremiya: “Faka la manikiniki amadala namanikiniki abolile ngaphansi kwamakhwapha akho ngaphansi kwezintambo. Wenze njalo uJeremiya.

¹³Base bemdonsa uJeremiya ngezintambo bamkhipha emgodini, uJeremiya wahlala egcekeni letilongo.

¹⁴Inkosi uZedekhiya yasithuma yamthathela uJeremiya umprofethi kuye emnyango wesithathu wendlu ye Nkosi; inkosi yathi kuJeremiya: “Ngizakubuza utho; ungangifihleli lutho.

¹⁵Wayesethi uJeremiya kuZedekiya: “Uma ngikutshela lokhu, awuyikungibulala nokungibulala na? uma nginiluleka, aniyikungilalela na?

¹⁶Inkosi uZedekhiya yasifunga kuJeremiya ngasese yathi: Kuphila kukaJehova owasenzela lomphefumulo, kangiyikukubulala, njalo kangiyikukunikela esandleni salamadoda angaboniyo impilo yakho.

¹⁷UJeremiya wayesethi kuZedekiya: “Usho kanje uJehova uNkulunkulu Sebawoti, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Uma uphumela nokuphumela ezikhulwini zenkosi yaseBabele, umphefumulo wakho uyakuphila, nalo muzi awuyikushiswa ngomlilo; futhi uzophila kanye nendlu yakho.

¹⁸Kepha uma ungaphumi uye ezikhulwini zenkosi yaseBabele, lo muzi uyakunikelwa esandleni samaKaledi, awushise ngomlilo, kepha wena awuyikuphunyuka esandleni sawo.

¹⁹Inkosi uZedekhiya yathi kuJeremiya: “Ngiyesaba abaJuda abahluthele kumaKaledi, funa anginikele esandleni sabo, badlale ngami.

²⁰Kodwa uJeremiya wathi: Kabayikukusindisa. Lalelani izwi likaJehova engilikhuluma kini; khona kuyakuba kuhle kuwe, uphile umphefumulo wakho.

²¹Kodwa uma wala ukuphuma, leli yizwi uJehova angibonisa lona:

²²Futhi bheka, bonke abesifazane abasele endlini yenkosi yakwaJuda bayolethwa ezikhulwini zenkosi yaseBhabhiloni, futhi labo besifazane bayothi: ‘Abangane bakho bakuhlasele futhi bakunqobile; izinyawo zakho zashona odakeni, zabuyela emuva.

²³Ngakho bonke abafazi bakho nabantwana bakho bayakukhiphela kumaKaledi; aniyikuphunyuka esandleni sabo, kepha niyakubanjwa ngesandla senkosi yaseBabele; futhi kumelwe uwushise lo muzi ngomlilo.

²⁴UZedekhiya wasesithi kuJeremiya: Kangazi muntu lawamazwi, njalo kawuyikufa.

²⁵Kodwa uma izikhulu zizwa ukuthi ngikhulumile kuwe, bese beza kuwe, bathi kuwe: Ake usitshele lokho owakukhuluma enkosini, ungasifihleli, futhi ngeke sikubulale; nalokho inkosi eyakusho kini:

²⁶Uzakuthi kibo: Ngilethe isicelo sami phambi kwenkosi ukuthi ingangivumeli ngibuyele endlini kaJonathani ukuze ngifele khona.

²⁷Zase zifika zonke izikhulu kuJeremiya, zambuza, wazitshela njengawo onke lawa mazwi inkosi eyalile ngawo. Basebeyeka ukukhuluma laye; ngoba indaba ayizange inakwe.

²⁸UJeremiya wahlala egcekeni letilongo kwaze kwaba usuku iJerusalema elathunjwa ngalo, futhi wayelapho lapho iJerusalema lithunjwa.
