1 Riri ndiro neno ambaro Mwenyezi Mlungu wamuambira Jeremia, 2 “Unuka utserere hadi nyumbani kpwa mfinyangi wa miyo ya ulongo, kuko ndakupha ujumbe wangu.” 3 Phahi nátserera, nchendamuona ye mfinyangi phakpwe muhamboni anaumba. 4 Nyo mwiyo ariokala anaumba, kala ukabanangika mo mwakpwe mikononi. Naye ye mfinyangi achifinyanga mwiyo wanjina na ulongo uho kama arivyomendza mwenye.

5 Ndipho Mwenyezi Mlungu achiniambira, 6 “Mwi atu a Iziraeli, dze, mino siweza kukuhendani vyo mfinyangi wa nyungu achivyohenda? Mwenyezi Mlungu anaamba, ‘Lola, dza ulongo urivyo mikononi mwa mfinyangi, ndivyo murivyo mwimwi atu a Iziraeli mwangu mikononi. 7 Wakati wowosi nimendzapho naweza kungʼola, kuvundza na kuangamiza taifa ama ufalume. 8 Alafu taifa hiro richigaluka na kuricha uyiwe, phahi nindaricha kurihendera mai nrigopanga kurihendera. 9 Vivyo hivyo wakati wowosi nchigomba kukala nindadzenga na kuimarisha taifa ama ufalume, 10 chisha taifa hiro ririche kunitii na rihende mai, phahi nami ndaricha kurihendera manono nrigopanga kurihendera. 11 Chisha aambire atu a Juda na nyo asagalao Jerusalemu kukala Mwenyezi Mlungu anaamba hivi, “Lola, ninaapangira uyi. Chila mmwenga naariche njiraze mbii, agaluze mahendoge na masagazige.” 12 Ela aho andajibu aambe, “Higo ni bure! Swino hundaenderera na mipango yehu, chisha chila mutu andahenda kulengana na moyowe mui ndivyomlongoza.”

18 Chisha nyo atu achiamba, “Ndzoni humpangire njama Jeremia, mana go mafundzo ga shariya kula kpwa alavyadzi-sadaka tagandaangamika, wala ushauri wa atu a ikima, wala neno ra Mlungu kutsupira manabii. Ndzoni hugombe vii kumuhusu na husigatiye manani gosi agombago.”
