¹ Shefatia umwana wa Matani, Gedalia umwana wa Pashuri, umwana wa Malkiya ahuvha amaneno ambayo Yeremia alitangazya wabhandhu bhunhi. Ali ayanga, ² "Yahwe ayanga ishi: Wabhudti uwa khala mji uguu aigogwa wipanga, inzala, ni pigo. Lelo wa bhunti uwanza bhale Wakaldayo aibha mwumyi. Aitoroha palushimo na maisha gakwe yuyo, na khale. ³ Yahwe ayanga ishi: Ugu umji ugu gwapea hukhono ugwa sikali bha ufalme wa Babeli, aigukhata." ⁴ Kwa hiyo amaafisa bhayanga wafalme, "Leha umuthu unu afwe, pipo widala ili adhorovisya amakhono galume abha khomanaji ga bhatdu bhudti. Atangazya amaneno iga, pipo unu umudtu haga abhomba hu salama uwa bhadtu ibha, lelo hu majanga." ⁵ Basi ufalme uSedekia ayanjile, "Enya, ali makhono gaho pipo numo ufalme uwawezya hukhome." ⁶ Ipo bhamwega uYeremia na hutaje mushisima sha Malkiya, umwana wa falme. Ishisima shati mushibhanja sha bhagula. Bhamwisizye uYeremia paka panthi matope. ⁷ Ishi Ebed Meleki Mkushi aliumo uwa watowashi kati yi nyumba ya falme. Avhuha huje hali bhabheshele uYeremia mushi sima. Ishi ufalme ali akhele hu lyango gwa Benjamini. ⁸ Basi Ebed Meleki abhalile afume hu nyumba ya falme na yanje nu falme. ⁹ Ayanjile, "Bwana wane falme, ibha alume bhabhombile uchafu winamuna isha bha bhombile uYeremia ukuwa. Bhatajile mu shisima kwa ajili ya fwe afumilane ni nzala, awande k= na shimo ishalye zaidi kati yi muji." ¹⁰ Isho ufalme ahafumya imuri wa Ebed Meleki Mkushi. Ayanjile, "Ega amuri yabhadhu thelasini afume epa namefye uYeremia ukuwa hudhi iyi sima shasile afwe." ¹¹ Basi Ebed Meleki ahejile amuri ya bhadhu ibho abhala hu nyumba ya falme, hu shanga ishimenda panzi yi nyumba. Aga zebushe nagisye panthi nu lyabho wa Yeremia muhati mu shisima. ¹² Ebed Meleki Ukushi ayanjile wa Yeremia, "Bhiha amatambala namenda aga zebu hine pasi yi makhono gaho na mwanya mulyabho. "Basi uYeremia abhombile. ¹³ Ipo bhakunya uYeremia nu lyabho. Widala ili bhamwefya afume mu mushima. Basi Yeremia asagele hu wanja wa gula. ¹⁴ Ipo ufalme Sedekia ahatuma izyo nahulete Yeremia ukuwa, wa mwene, wi lango ilya tatu ili nyumba Yahwe. Ufalme ayanga wa Yeremia, "Iwanza hubhuzye ahadtu . Undanda ambumele anjibu ane." ¹⁵ U Yeremia ayanga wa Sedekia, "Khashele ihujibu, hata ubhagoje lyoli? Nakhashele ihupela ushauri, hagauntejelezye ane." ¹⁶ Lelo ufalme Sedekia alapile wa Yeremia husili nayanje, "Nishi Yahwe ishakhala, 'Umwene uwatubhombile ate, Saga imbahugoje au hubhishe makhono gabhadtu bhala abhawanza amaisha gaho." ¹⁷ Ipo uYeremia ayanga wa Sedekia, "Yahwe, Ungulubhi wa sikali, Ungulubhi wa Israeli, ayanga ishi: Khamba lyoli ubhafume abhale wa maafisa bha falme wa Babeli baasi unzaishi, hadi umji ugu haga ubhapebwe. Awe ni familia yaho munza ishi. ¹⁸ Lelo khamba haga unzabhale wa maafisa bha falme wa Babeli, basi umji ugu gwayegwa hakhono Wakaldayo. Bhaipemba, na hagaukwepe afume mukhono gwabho." ¹⁹ Ufalme Sedekia ayanga wa Yeremia, Lelo iwogopa abha Yuda bhafumile hu jangwani abhale Wakaldayo, sababu ihapewa kati yi khono gwabho ishabha mbambi shi bhibhi." ²⁰ U Yeremia ayanga, "Habhayiwefya hu mwabho. Tii ujumbe afume wa Yahwe ambao ihubhula, ili amambo khaga zabha shinza huliwe, ili kusudi uishi. ²¹ Lelo khashele ukhana afume, isho shashisho uYahwe ambonisye ane. ²² Enya! Abhashi bhudti abhale wilye hu nyumba yaho, ufalme wa Yuda, ailetwa wa maafisa afalme Babeli. Ibha abhashi bhanza yanje huliwe, "Ukhopilye na manyani bhaho; bhanaginye. Amangulubhi gaho ishi gadhamile hu matope, amanyani bhaho bhanza hunyile.' ²³ Pipo abhashi bhinyu bhudti nabhana bhailetwa Wakaldayo, nawe wewe haga uhayitoroha inthi yabho. Uhaikhatwa nu khono gwa falme wa Babeli, nu mji ugu gwaipebwa." ²⁴ Ipo Sedekia ayanga wa Yeremia, "Ugandajulisye yayundti ahusu amaneno iga, ili huje usahenze afwe. ²⁵ Nishi amaafisa bhahuvha huje injanjile nawe- khabhawinza nayanje huliwe, 'Tubhule uyanjile yenu palushi nu falme. Uganda tufise, au tunza hugoje. Na tubhule hennu ufalme ahayanjile huliwe'- ²⁶ ishi ipasa ayanje nabho, "Ihashaline palushimo nabho ufalme anganda abhuye hulini hunyumba ya Yonathani inzafwe umwo." ²⁷ Ipo amaafisa bhundti bhahenza wa Yeremia na hubhuzye, basi abhajibu nishi ufalme ishanelekizye. Basi bhaleshile ayanje pamoja anawo, pipo sabhahuvhuzye amazungumunzo kati ya Yeremia ufalme. ²⁸ Basi uYeremia asagile huwanja wa gula paka isiku lila iYerusalemu pahatekwilye.
