3 “Oshigwana tashi zi kuumbangalantu, otashi ya okuponokela Babilonia notashi shi ningi ombuga. Aantu niinamwenyo otayi yi ontuku, nokape na ngoka ta kala mo.”
Egaluko lyaIsrael
4 Omuwa ota ti: “Ethimbo otali ya, uuna Aaisraeli nAajuda ayehe taa ke ya taa lili, taa kongo ndje, Kalunga kawo. 5 Otaa ka pula ondjila yu uka kuSion notaye yi landula. Otaa ka hangana nangame ehangano lyaaluhe noitaye li yono we.

Aatondi yawo otaa ti: ‘Oya yono kOmuwa, onkee shoka twa ningi, oshi li mondjila. Oohekulu oyi inekele Omuwa, nayo yene oya li ye na oku mu inekela.’
8 “Aaisraeli ne, zii mo muBabilonia! Shi thigii po! Ningeni shanamutango oku shi thiga po! 9 Otandi ka sikumudha engathithi lyiigwana muumbangalantu noku yi ponokelitha Babilonia. Otaa ka tsa ompola molugodhi, ya kondjithe oshilongo noku shi lala. Oyo oondjumbeta oonkulungu, aashoneki yiikuti ihaayi palutha. 10 Babilonia otashi ka luwa po, naamboka taye shi lu po, otaa ka kagunyuna po ashihe ye shi hala. Ongame, Omuwa, nda popi.”
Etekopo lyaBabilon
11 Omuwa ota ti: “Aababilonia ne, omwa yugu oshigwana shandje. Omu na elago mwa nyanyukwa mwa fa ondema tayi yungula olupale, tamu hehema mwa fa okakambe okatsezi, 12 ihe oshilando sheni oshinene otashi ka fupipikwa nokusithwa ohoni.

14 “Ondjumbeta, tseni ompola, mu kondeke Babilon. Hwanunineni iikuti yeni ayihe kuBabilon, oshoka osha yono kungame, Omuwa. 15 Tseni onkalu koombinga adhihe dhoshilando! Babilon otashi igandja.

Omukwiilongo kehe a kala mo, ota ka haluka kehomono lyaahanaguli e ta ka shuna koshilongo shaandjawo.”
Egaluko lyaIsrael
17 Omuwa ota ti: “Aaisraeli oya fa oonzi dha kukuma nodha halakanithwa koonime. Tango oya ponokelwa komupangeli gwaAssur. Opo ihe Nebukadnezzar, omukwaniilwa gwaBabilon, okwa kunya omasipa gawo. 18 Molwashika ngame, Omuwa Omunankondoawike, otandi ka geela omukwaniilwa Nebukadnezzar noshilongo she, naanaa ngaashi nda geelele omupangeli gwaAssur. 19 Otandi ka galulila Aaisraeli kevi lyawo.

Ongame, Omuwa, nda popi.”
Kalunga ta geele Babilonia
21 Omuwa ota ti: “Ponokeleni aantu muMeratajim nomuPekod. Ya yapulileni Omuwa nokugana, mu ya dhipage noku ya hanagula po sheke. Gwanitheni ashihe tandi mu lombwele. Ongame, Omuwa, nda popi. 22 Oshihomo sholugodhi otashi uvika moshilongo, noku na ehanagulo enene. 23 Babilonia osha nyankagula po uuyuni auhe, ngashingeyi osilwa ndjoka oya nyanyagulwa po! Iigwana ayihe oya haluka kushoka sha ningilwa oshilongo shoka. 24 Babilonia, owa kondjitha ndje, nowa kwatwa komwigo ngoka nde ku tegele, nando ino shi tseya. 25 Onde egulula ompungulilo yandje yomatati nomondjahi yandje onde ga kutha mo, oshoka ngame, Omupangeliawike, Omuwa Omunankondoawike, ondi na iilonga tandi yi longo muBabilon. 26 Shi matukileni tamu ziilile koombinga adhihe.

Yaye Aababilonia! Ethimbo olya thikana, ya geelwe.”
28 (Oontauki ndhoka dha zi muBabilonia nodhe ya kuJerusalem, odha hokolola, nkene Omuwa Kalunga ketu a polithile ondjahi ye mAababilonia, mboka ya hanagula po otempeli ye.)
29 “Lombweleni oondjumbeta, ya ponokele Babilon. Tumii ko mboka ye shi okushoneka nawa iikuti. Kondekeni oshilando, inamu etha mu ze nando omuntu. Shi peni ondjambi ndjoka she yi ilongele; shi ningeni ngaashi sha ningi yakwawo, oshoka osha shongo ndje, ongame, Omuyapuki gwaIsrael. 30 Onkee ano aagundjuka yasho otaa ka sila momapandaanda goshilando, naakwiita yasho ayehe otaa ka kombwa po esiku ndyoka. Ongame, Omuwa, nda popi.
31 “Babilonia, owa kinga unene, onkee ngame, Omuwa Omunankondoawike, onda tsa ondumbo nangoye. Ethimbo olya thiki, ndi ku geele. 32 Shigwana ngoye ho inomo, oto ka punduka; oto gwile po, nokaku na ngoka te ku kwatha. Iilando yoye otandi ke yi tomeka omulilo, noshaa shoka she ku kunduka, otashi ka hanagulwa po.”
33 Omuwa Omunankondoawike ota ti: “Aaisraeli nAajuda oya hepekwa. Ayehe mboka ye ya kwata po, oye ya thitikinine mo noinaye ya etha we. 34 Ihe omumangululi gwawo oye omunankondo — edhina lye oye Omuwa Omunankondoawike. Oye mwenemwene ti ikwatele ko nota ka eta ombili kombanda yevi, ihe kAababilonia omalwa.”
35 Omuwa ota ti:
“Nakusa oBabilon!
Oonakusa aantu yasho, aaleli yasho naanongo yasho.
36 Oonakusa aahunganeki yasho yiifundja —
oya goyapala ngiini!
Oonakusa aakwiita yasho —

37 Hanagulii po uukambe nomatembakwiita gasho.

Hanagulii po omaliko gasho;

38 Oluteni nalu kalaganye,

39 “Babilon otashi ka kalwa koombidhi, komambungu nokoondhila dha nyata. Itamu ka kala we aantu, sigo aluhe. 40 Babilon otashi ka ningwa ngaashi Sodom naGomorra, sho nde ya hanagula nomikunda dhopuushiinda wayo. Kaku na we ngoka na ka kala mo. Ongame, Omuwa, nda popi.
41 “Oku na aantu taa ziilile koshilongo shokuumbangalantu,
oshigwana oshinankondo otashi zi kokule;
aakwaniilwa oyendji otaa ilongekidhile iita.
42 Oya homata omatati nomagonga;

Oshihomo shawo osha fa efuta tali pupu,

43 Omukwaniilwa gwaBabilonia sho tu uvu onkundana,

44 “Otandi ke ya nda fa onime ya hituluka mongoya yomugulu gwaJordan tayi ya melundu lyuunapelo, nohaluka otandi ka yitha Aababilonia ontuku, ya thige po oshilando shawo. Nena omupangeli ngoka tandi hogolola, ota ka lela oshigwana. Olye ta yelekwa nangame? Olye ti itakeke ndje? Omupangeli lye ta kondjitha ndje? 45 Onkee ano pulakeneni shoka nda dhiladhilile oshilando Babilon, naashoka nda sheya okuningila aantu yasho. Nokuli naanona yawo otaa ka kookololwa po, noshaa ngoka ota ka haluka. 46 Uuna Babilon tashi teka po, otaku ka kala endundumo enene tali kakamitha evi alihe, nekugagano lyehaluko otali ka uvika kiigwana.”
Omahuuriro wotjihuro Babilon

Turikeye erapi rotjiraisiro; nu zuvariseye ombuze!

Omakotokero wotjiwaṋa tja Israel
4 Muhona ma tja nai: “Momayuva ngo otjiwaṋa tja Israel notja Juda mavi ya. Ovyo mavi yende amavi riri, amavi paha ami, Ndjambi wavyo. 5 Ovyo mavi pura ondjira ndji yenda kOsion, tjazumba mavi hungama ngo. Ovyo mavi tjiti omerikutiropamwe omakarere na ami, nu kamaavi ye teya ko.

Ami, ngu mbi ri Muhona, owami ngu mba hungire.”
Babilon matji haverwa
11 Muhona ma tja nai: “Vababilon, eṋe mwa punda otjiwaṋa tjandje. Eṋe mu nenyando nondjoroka, nu mamu ryanga tjimuna ozongombe ozonḓenḓu, nḓu maze yata ovikokotwa poo tjimuna oukambe outwezu mbu mau vandara. 12 Nungwari otjihuro tjeṋu otjinene matji ṱisiwa ohoṋi natji yambururwa.

Owozonganda auhe ngwa tura mehi ndo ma tira omunavita ngu me mu rwisa, nu ma taurire kehi rawo.”
Omakotokero wotjiwaṋa tja Israel
17 Muhona ma tja nai: “Otjiwaṋa tja Israel tji ri otja ozonḓu nḓu maze rambwa naze rimbwa i ozongeyama. Rutenga tja rwisiwa i ombara ya Asirie, tjazumba Nebukadnesar, ombara ya Babilon, wa korokoha omaṱupa watjo. 18 Mena roviṋa mbi ami, ngu mbi ri Muhona Omunamasaaehe, Ndjambi wa Israel, me vere ombara Nebukadnesar nehi re, otja tji mba verere ombara ya Asirie. 19 Ami me yarura ko otjiwaṋa tja Israel mehi ratjo.

Ami, ngu mbi ri Muhona, owami ngu mba hungire.”
Ombanguriro ya Muhona kObabilon
21 Muhona ma tja nai: “Rwisa Ovamerataim nOvapekod. Ve zepa nu u ve yandeke. Tjita avihe mbi mbe ku rakiza. Ami, ngu mbi ri Muhona, owami ngu mba hungire. 22 Ondokohero yotjirwa mai zuvaka mehi, nu mu nomanyoneno omanene. 23 Babilon, indji ongowa ndja nyanyaura ouye auhe, nambano oyo oini ya hahaurwa.

28 Ovature mave taura mehi ra Babilon nave ya kOjerusalem, nowo mave serekarere imbi Muhona, Ndjambi wetu mbya sutisa Ovababilon mena raimbi mbi va tjitire kondjuwo ye.
29 “Raereye ovayumbe vomauta avehe kutja ve rwise Babilon. Hindeye ngamwa auhe ngu tjiwa okuyumba outa notjiku. Kovereye otjihuro, nu ape ningi umwe ngu ma poṋa.

31 “Babilon, ove we ritongamisa tjinene; nami, Muhona Ndjambi Omunamasaaehe, otji me ku sekamene. Omayuva ye ya ami mu me ku vere. 32 Otjiwaṋa tjoye otjihahu matji putara natji u, nu kape na umwe ngu me tji yeura.

33 Muhona Omunamasaaehe ma tja nai: “Ovaisrael nOvajuda ve ṋiṋikiziwa.
