UYeremiya

Isahluko 47

Into eyafikayo kuYeremiya umprofeti, ililizwi likaYehova ngokusingisele kumaFilisti, uFaro engekayixabeli iGaza, yaye iyile:
2 Utsho uYehova ukuthi, Yabona, kunyuka entla amanzi angumlambo ongumkhukula, ontywilisela ilizwe nenzaliseko yalo, imizi nabemi bayo; sikhale isintu, babhomboloze bonke abemi belizwe.
3 Ngenxa yesingqi sokunyathela kwamanqina eembalasane zamahashe akhe, ngenxa yokugoqoza kweenqwelo zakhe zokulwa, ngokuxokozela kweevili zakhe, ooyise abasabheki koonyana ngokuwa kwezandla;
4 ngenxa yemini eza kuwabhuqa onke amaFilisti, eza kunqumla eTire neTsidon bonke abasale banceda; ngokuba uYehova uyawabhuqa amaFilisti, amasalela onxweme lwaseKafetori.
5 Isezileni iGaza, itshabalele iAshkelon, amasalela entili yabo.
6 Kunini na uzicenta? Awu! Krele likaYehova, kunini na ungaphezi? Rhoxela esingxotyeni sakho; phumla, uthi cwaka.
7 Ungathini na ukupheza, uYehova ekuwisele umthetho nje? EAshkelon naselunxwemeni lolwandle, apho ukuyalele.
