32 “‘Saka inzwai! mazuva achasvika,’ ndizvo zvinotaurwa naJehovha, ‘paisingazombonzizve Tofeti kana kuti Bani reMwanakomana waHinomu,* asi Bani Rekuurayira. Vachaviga vakafa muTofeti kusvikira musisina nzvimbo.+ 33 Uye zvitunha zvevanhu ava zvichava zvekudya zveshiri dzedenga nezvemhuka dzepanyika, pasina anodzidzinga.+ 34 Ndichaita kuti mumaguta eJudha nemumigwagwa yeJerusarema musanzwika inzwi rekupembera nemufaro nenzwi remufaro mukuru, inzwi remurume ari kuroora nenzwi remwenga,+ nekuti nyika yacho ichasara yava matongo.’”+
