Jeremiya 26 UJehova wenza umuzi ube yisiqalekiso ngenxa yokungalaleli

¹ Ekuqaleni kokubusa kukaJehoyakimi indodana kaJosiya, inkosi yakwaJuda, kwafika leli zwi livela kuJehova, lithi:

² Usho kanje uJehova; Yima egcekeni lendlu kaJehova, ukhulume kuyo yonke imizi yakwaJuda eza ukukhuleka endlini kaJehova wonke amazwi engikuyala ukuba uwakhulume kubo; ayinciphisi igama:

³ Uma kunjalo, bayolalela, futhi yilowo nalowo aphenduke endleleni yakhe embi, ukuze ngiphenduke ebubini engihlose ukubenza kubo ngenxa yobubi bezenzo zabo.

⁴ Uthi kubo: Usho kanje uJehova; Uma ningangilaleli ukuba nihambe emthethweni wami engiwubeka phambi kwenu,

⁵ ukulalela amazwi ezinceku zami, abaprofethi, engabathuma kini, abavuka ekuseni ngibathuma, kepha anilalelanga;

⁶ Ngiyakwenza le ndlu ibe njengeShilo, ngenze lo muzi ube yisiqalekiso kuzo zonke izizwe zomhlaba.

⁷ Abapristi nabaprofethi nabo bonke abantu bezwa uJeremiya ekhuluma lawa mazwi endlini kaJehova.

⁸ Kwathi uJeremiya eseqedile ukukhuluma konke uJehova amyale ngakho ukuthi akukhulume ebantwini bonke, abapristi labaprofethi labantu bonke bamthatha bathi: Uzakufa lokufa.

⁹ Uprofetheleni egameni likaJehova, uthi: ‘Le ndlu iyakuba njengeShilo, nalo muzi uyakuba yihlane elingenamuntu ohlala kulo? Bonke abantu babuthana kuJeremiya endlini kaJehova.

¹⁰ Lapho izikhulu zakwaJuda zizwa lokho, zenyuka zisuka endlini yenkosi zaya endlini kaJehova zahlala phansi ngasemnyango wesango elisha lendlu kaJehova.

¹¹ Abapristi nabaprofethi bakhuluma ezikhulwini nakubantu bonke, bathi: “Lo muntu ufanelwe ukufa; ngokuba waprofetha ngalo muzi, njengalokho nizwile ngezindlebe zenu.

¹² UJeremiya wayesekhuluma kuzo zonke izikhulu nakubo bonke abantu, wathi: “UJehova ungithumile ukuba ngiprofethe ngale ndlu nangalumuzi onke amazwi eniwazwileyo.

¹³ Ngakho-ke lungisani izindlela zenu nezenzo zenu, nilalele izwi likaJehova uNkulunkulu wenu; uJehova uzozisola ngobubi akukhulume ngani.

¹⁴ Mina-ke, bhekani, ngisesandleni senu; yenza kimi njengoba kukuhle nokuhle emehlweni akho.

¹⁵ Kodwa niyazi ngokuqinisekile ukuthi uma ningibulala, ngokuqinisekile niyoletha igazi elingenacala phezu kwenu naphezu kwalo muzi naphezu kwabakhileyo kuwo; ngoba isibili iNkosi ingithumile kini ukukhuluma wonke lamazwi ezindlebeni zakho.

¹⁶ Izikhulu nabo bonke abantu base bethi kubapristi nakubaprofethi: “Lo muntu akafanele ukufa, ngokuba ukhulume kithi egameni likaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu.

¹⁷ Kwase kusukuma abanye bamalunga ezwe bakhuluma kulo lonke ibandla labantu bathi:

¹⁸ UMika waseMoresheti waprofetha ezinsukwini zikaHezekiya inkosi yakwaJuda, wakhuluma kubo bonke abantu bakwaJuda, wathi: “Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti, uthi: IZiyoni liyakulinywa njengensimu, iJerusalema libe yizinqwaba; nentaba yendlu injengeziqongo zehlathi.

¹⁹ UHezekiya inkosi yakwaJuda naye wonke uJuda bambulala na? Akamesabanga uJehova, wamncenga uJehova, uJehova wazisola ngobubi abebukhulume ngabo na? Kanjalo singenza ububi obukhulu emiphefumulweni yethu.

²⁰ Kwakukhona futhi umuntu owayeprofetha egameni likaJehova, u-Uriya, indodana kaShemaya, waseKiriyati Jeharimi, owaprofetha ngalo muzi nangaleli zwe njengawo wonke amazwi kaJeremiya.

²¹ Lapho inkosi uJehoyakimi nawo onke amaqhawe ayo nazo zonke izikhulu zezwa amazwi ayo, inkosi yazama ukumbulala; kepha u-Uriya esezwile wesaba, wabaleka, waya eGibithe;

²² Inkosi uJehoyakimi yathuma amadoda eGibithe, u-Elinathani indodana ka-Akibori, namadoda kanye naye eGibithe.

²³ Bamkhipha u-Uriya eGibithe, bamyisa enkosini uJehoyakimi; owambulala ngenkemba, wasiphonsa isidumbu sakhe emathuneni abantukazana.

²⁴ Kodwa isandla sika-Ahikamu, indodana kaShafani, sasinoJeremiya, ukuze bangamnikeli esandleni sabantu ukuba bambulale.
