3 Yeremiya aatawira: “Ipi ndi pinafunika imwe kupanga Zedhekiya: 4 ‘Ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova Mulungu wa Izraeli: “Ine ndinacitisa kuti pida pya nkhondo piri mʼmanja mwanu pikuzungunukireni, pida pinaphatisira imwe toera kumenyana na mambo wa ku Bhabhilonya,+ na Akaldheya adakuzungulirani kunja kwa mpanda. Pontho ine ndinadzapigumanya pakati pa nzinda uno. 5 Ine ndinadzamenyana na iwe+ na mphambvu zanga zonsene, na nkono wanga wamphambvu, na ukali wanga, pontho na kuipirwa kwanga kukulu.+ 6 Ine ndinadzapha anthu anakhala mu nzinda uno, anthu na pinyama pyene anadzafa thangwi ya utenda ukulu.”’+
7 “‘“Buluka penepo,” alonga Yahova, “ine ndinadzapereka Zedhekiya Mambo wa ku Yuda, atumiki ace na mbumba ya nzinda uno, ale adakhonda kufa na utenda, na supada, pontho na njala; ndinadzaapereka mʼmanja mwa Nabhukodhonozore Mambo wa ku Bhabhilonya, na mʼmanja mwa anyamalwa awo, na mʼmanja mwa ale anaasaka toera kuapha,+ iye anadzaapha na supada, iye nkhabe kudzaabvera ntsisi, nee kualekerera.”’+
8 “Usafunika kupanga mbumba iyi kuti: ‘Ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova: “Ndiri kuikha pamaso panu njira ya umaso na njira yakufa. 9 Ale anafuna kupitiriza kukhala mu nzinda uno, anadzaphiwa na supada, anadzafa na njala, pontho na utenda. Mbwenye ule anafuna kubuluka, mbaenda kaperekeka kuna Akaldheya adakuzungulirani, anadzapitiriza na umaso wace.”’+
10 “‘“Thangwi ine ndatonga kubweresa nyatwa mu nzinda uno, tayu pinthu pyadidi,”+ alonga Yahova. “Iwo unadzaperekwa mʼmanja mwa mambo wa ku Bhabhilonya,+ pontho iye anadzaupisa na moto.”+
11 “‘Imwe anthu a panyumba ya mambo wa ku Yuda: Bveserani mafala a Yahova. 12 Imwe mbumba ya Dhavidhi, ipi ndi pidalonga Yahova:
“Tsidzikizani ulungami ntsiku zonsene,
Ale anaberwa, apulumuseni mʼmanja mwa ale anaaponderera,+
Toera ukali wanga ukhonde kugaka ninga moto,+
Mbugaka munjira yakuti nkhabe anafuna kwanisa kuuthimisa,
Thangwi ya pinthu pyakuipa pinacita imwe.”’+
13 ‘Ine ndinakutcunyusani imwe anthu anakhala nʼgowa,
Imwe mwala wa nʼgowa,’ alonga Yahova.
‘Imwe musalonga kuti: “Mbani anafuna bwera kudzatitcunyusa?
Mbani anafuna kudzafudza nyumba zathu?”
14 Mbwenye ine ndinadzakutcunyusani,
Mwakubverana na macitiro anu,’ alonga Yahova.+
‘Nsitu wanu ndinadzaupisa na moto,
Moto unoyu unadzapisa pinthu pyonsene piri nʼkhundu mwawo.’”+
