| 1. | Into eyafikayo kuYeremiya umprofeti, ililizwi likaYehova ngokusingisele kwiintlanga. |
| 2. | ElingeYiputa, ngokusingisele kwimpi kaFaro-neko ukumkani weYiputa, ebisemlanjeni ongumEfrati, eKarkemishe, awayixabelayo uNebhukadenetsare ukumkani waseBhabheli, ngomnyaka wesine kaYehoyakim unyana kaYosiya, ukumkani wakwaYuda, lalisithi: |
| 3. | Lungisani ingweletshetshe nekhaka, yiyani kulwa. |
| 4. | Bophani amahashe ezinqwelweni zokulwa, khwelani nina bamahashe; zimiseni ninezigcina-ntloko, khazimlisani izikhali, ninxibe iingubo zentsimbi. |
| 5. | Yini? ndibona ntoni? Baqhiphuka umbilini, babuya umva; amagorha abo aqotyiwe; basaba intsabo kanye, bangabi saphethula; kukunxunguphala ngeenxa zonke; utsho uYehova. |
| 6. | Makangasabi onamendu, lingasindi igorha; ngasentla, ngasemlanjeni ongumEfrati, bakhubeke bawa. |
| 7. | Ngubani na lo unyuka njengoMnayile, umanzi azamazama njengemilambo? |
| 8. | IYiputa iyenyuka njengoMnayile, amanzi ayo ayazamazama njengemilambo. Ithi, Ndiya kunyuka, ndiya kuwugubungela umhlaba; ndiya kuyitshabalalisa imizi nabemi bayo. |
| 9. | Qakathani, mahashe; nidlongozele, zinqwelo zokulwa. Makaphume amagorha, amaKushi namaPuti aphethe ingweletshetshe, namaLudi, aphethe atyede isaphetha. |
| 10. | Le mini yeyeNkosi, uYehova wemikhosi; yimini yempindezelo, yokuphindezela kubabandezeli bakhe; lidle lihluthe ikrele, lisele lidikwe ligazi labo; ngokuba inombingelelo iNkosi, uYehova wemikhosi, ezweni lasentla, emlanjeni ongumEfrati. |
| 11. | Nyuka uye eGiliyadi, thabatha amafutha aqholiweyo, nkazanandini, ntombi iyiYiputa; ufumana usandisa oomathunga; akunakubotshwa. |
| 12. | Iintlanga zikuvile ukucukucezwa kwakho, ukukhala kwakho kwazalisa ihlabathi; ngokuba igorha likhubeka egorheni, omabini awa ndaweni-nye. |
| 13. | Ilizwi awalithethayo uYehova kuYeremiya umprofeti, ngokuza kukaNebhukadenetsare ukumkani waseBhabheli, ukuba alixabele ilizwe laseYiputa, lalisithi: |
| 14. | Xelani eYiputa, nivakalise eMigidoli, nivakalise eNofu naseTapanesi; yithini, Misa, xhoba; ngokuba ikrele liya kudla ngeenxa zonke kuwe. |
| 15. | Yini na ukuba ziqwelwe iimbalasane zakho? Azimanga, ngokuba uYehova uzingqulile. |
| 16. | Ukhubekisa abaninzi, ewe, omnye uwela omnye; bathi, Sukani, masibuyele ebantwini bakowethu, ezweni esazalelwa kulo, ngenxa yekrele elidlavulayo. |
| 17. | Badanduluka khona, bathi, UFaro ukumkani weYiputa utshabile; ulidlulisile ixesha elimisiweyo. |
| 18. | Ndihleli nje, utsho ukumkani, ogama lakhe linguYehova wemikhosi, ukuthi, Inene, uya kuza enjengeTabhore phakathi kweentaba, enjengeKarmele ngaselwandle. |
| 19. | Zenzele iimpahla zemfuduka, mmi, ntombi iyiYiputa; ngokuba iNofu iya kuba linxuwa, itshiswe, ingabi nammi. |
| 20. | IYiputa lithokazi elihle kakhulu; isibawu sasentla siyeza, siyeza. |
| 21. | Kanjalo imikhosi yayo eqeshiweyo phakathi kwayo injengamathole asesitalini; inene, nayo leyo ijikile, iyasaba kunye, ayimi; ngokuba uyifikele umhla wokusindeka kwayo, ixesha lokuvelelwa kwayo. |
| 22. | Isandi sayo sinjengokuhamba kwenyoka; ngokuba bahamba ngobukroti, bayifikele ngezixengxe njengabagawuli bemithi. |
| 23. | Bagawula ihlathi layo, utsho uYehova, nokuba lithe shinyi; ngokuba baninzi ngaphezu kweenkumbi, abanakubalwa. |
| 24. | Intombi eyiYiputa ihlazekile, inikelwe esandleni sabantu belasentla. |
| 25. | Uthi uYehova wemikhosi, uThixo kaSirayeli, Yabona, ndiyamvelela uAmon waseNo, noFaro, neYiputa, noothixo bayo, nobukumkani bayo, kwauFaro nabakholose ngaye. |
| 26. | Ndobanikela esandleni sabafuna umphefumlo wabo, esandleni sikaNebhukadenetsare ukumkani waseBhabheli, nasesandleni sabakhonzi bakhe; emveni koko imiwe njengokwemihla yamandulo; utsho uYehova. |
| 27. | Ke wena musa ukoyika, mkhonzi wam Yakobi; ungaqhiphuki umbilini, Sirayeli; ngokuba, uyabona, ndiya kukusindisa kwakude, nembewu yakho ezweni ethinjelwe kulo, abuye uYakobi, azole, onwabe, angagubhi. |
| 28. | Musa ukoyika, wena mkhonzi wam Yakobi, utsho uYehova; ngokuba ndinawe; ngokuba ndiya kuzigqibela kuphele iintlanga zonke endikugxothele kuzo. Ke wena andiyi kukugqibela kuphele; ndokuthethisa ngokusesikweni; andiyi kuthi umsulwa. |
