Nakambe mi fanele mi susa swilo hinkwaswo swo biha exikarhi ka n’wina.+

11 Kutani Hananiya a vula leswi emahlweni ka vanhu hinkwavo: “Yehovha u ri, ‘Ndzi ta ri tshova hi ndlela leyi joko ra Hosi Nebukadnetsara wa le Babilona etinhan’wini ta matiko hinkwawo ku nga si hela malembe mambirhi.’”+ Hiloko muprofeta Yeremiya a famba.

12 Endzhaku ka loko muprofeta Hananiya a tshove joko enhan’wini ya muprofeta Yeremiya, rungula leri humaka eka Yehovha ri fika eka Yeremiya ri ku: 13 “Famba u ya byela Hananiya u ku, ‘Yehovha u ri: “U tshove majoko ya timhandzi+ kambe ematshan’weni ya wona u ta endla majoko ya nsimbhi.” 14 Hikuva Yehovha wa mavuthu, Xikwembu xa Israyele u ri: “Ndzi ta veka joko ra nsimbhi enhan’wini ya matiko lawa hinkwawo leswaku ma tirhela Hosi Nebukadnetsara wa le Babilona, ma fanele ma n’wi tirhela.+ Ndzi ta n’wi nyika hambi ku ri swiharhi.”’”+

15 Kutani muprofeta Yeremiya a byela muprofeta Hananiya+ a ku: “Ndzi kombela u yingisa, wena Hananiya! Yehovha a nga ku rhumanga kambe wena u endle leswaku vanhu lava va tshemba mavunwa.+ 16 Hikwalaho Yehovha u ri, ‘Waswivo! Ndza ku susa emisaveni. Lembe leri u ta fa hikuva u dyondzise vanhu ku xandzukela Yehovha.’”+
