1.

.Shoko rakauya kuna Jeremiya, richibva kuna Jehovha, richiti,

2.

"Inzwa mashoko esungano iyi, muataure navanhu vaJudha, navagere Jerusaremu,

3.

uti kwavari, 'Zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari waIsiraeri, munhu usinganzwi mashoko esungano iyi, ngaatukwe,'

4.

aya andakaraira madzibaba enyu nezuva randakavabudisa munyika yeIjipiti, muchoto chamatare, ndichiti, `teererai inzwi rangu, muzviite zvose sezvandakakurairai; ipapo muchava vanhu vangu, neni ndichava Mwari wenyu;

5.

kuti ndisimbise kupika kwandakapikira madzibaba enyu, kuti ndichavapa nyika inoyerera mukaka nouchi, sezvazvakaita zuva ranhasi.' Ipapo ndakapindura, ndikati, `Ameni, Jehovha.' "

6.

Zvino Jehovha akati kwandiri, "Paridza mashoko awa ose pamaguta aJudha, napanzira dzomuJerusaremu, uchiti, `Inzwai mashoko esungano iyi, muaite.'

7.

Nokuti ndakarairira madzibaba enyu kwazvo nezuva randakavabudisa munyika yeIjipiti, kusvikira zuva ranhasi, ndichifumira mangwanani, ndichirairira, ndichiti, `teererai inzwi rangu.'

8.

Asi havana kuteerera, kana kurerekera nzeve dzavo, asi mumwe nomumwe wavo wakaramba achifamba nohukukutu hwomoyo wake wakaipa; naizvozvo ndakauyisa pamusoro pavo mashoko ose esungano iyi, andakavaraira kuti vaaite, asi havana kuaita."

9.

Zvino Jehovha akati kwandiri, "Rangano yakaipa yawanikwa pakati pavanhu vaJudha, napakati pavagere Jerusaremu.

10.

Vakadzokera kune zvakaipa zvamadzitateguru avo, akaramba kunzwa mashoko angu, vakatevera vamwe vamwari kuti vavashumire; imba yaIsiraeri neimba yaJudha vakaputsa sungano yangu yandakaita namadzibaba avo.

11.

"Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha, `Tarirai, ndichauyisa zvakaipa pamusoro pavo, zvavasingagoni kutiza; vachadanidzira kwandiri, asi handingavanzwi.

12.

Ipapo vamaguta aJudha navagere Jerusaremu, vachandodanidzira kuna vamwari vavanopisira zvinonhuwira; asi havangatongovaponesi panguva yokutambudzika kwavo.

13.

Nokuti iwe Judha, kuwanda kwavamwari vako kwakafanana nokuwanda kwamaguta ako; uye makavakira chinhu chinonyadzisa maaritari, iwo maaritari okupisira Bhaari zvinonhuwira, akawanda senzira dzomuJerusaremu.'

14.

"Saka iwe usanyengeterera vanhu ava, kana kudana nokuda kwavo nenzwi rako kana munyengetero wako; nokuti handingavanzwi nenguva yavanodanidzira kwandiri nokuda kwokutambudzika kwavo.

15.

"Mudikanwa wangu unotsvakeiko mumba mangu, zvaakaita zvinonyangadza navazhinji? Mhiko nenyama tsvene zvingabvisa njodzi yako here? Ipapo ungafara kwazvo.

16.

Jehovha wakakutumidza zita rinonzi, Muorivhi mutema, wakanaka nezvibereko zvakanaka; asi wakazovesa moto pamusoro pawo nomubvumo webope guru, matavi awo akavhuniwa.

17.

Nokuti Jehovha wehondo, iye wakakusima, wakareva zvakaipa pamusoro pako, nokuda kwezvakaipa zveimba yaIsiraeri, neimba yaJudha, zvavakaita vachinditsamwisa nokupisira kwavo Bhaari zvinonhuwira."

18.

Jehovha wakandizivisa izvozvo, ndikazviziva; ipapo mukandiratidza zvavanoita.

19.

Asi ini ndakanga ndakafanana negwaiana nyoro rinoiswa kundobayiwa; ndakanga ndisingazivi kuti vakanga varangana mano akaipa pamusoro pangu, vachiti, "Ngatiparadze muti pamwechete nezvibereko zvawo, ngatimubvise chose panyika yavapenyu, zita rake rirege kuzorangarirwa."

20.

Asi imi Jehovha wehondo, imi munotonga zvakarurama, munoidza itsvo nomoyo, ndichaona kutsiva kwenyu kwavari, nokuti ndakakuzarurirai mhaka yangu.

21.

Naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha pamusoro pavanhu veAnatoti, vanotsvaka kukuuraya, vachiti, "Haufaniri kuporofita nezita raJehovha, kuti urege kuurawa namaoko edu;"

22.

naizvozvo zvanzi naJehovha wehondo, "Tarirai, ndichavarova; majaya achaurawa nomunondo, vanakomana vavo navanasikana vavo vachaurawa nenzara;

23.

havangasarirwi navanhu, nokuti ndichauyisa zvakaipa pamusoro pavanhu veAnatoti pagore rokurohwa kwavo."
