Yeremia 9:5
Jeremiah 9:5 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015
Rafiki humdanganya rafiki, hakuna yeyote asemaye kweli. Wamefundisha ndimi zao kudanganya, wanajichosha wenyewe katika kutenda dhambi.
Jeremiah 9:5 in English
Jeremiah 9:5 · Berean Standard Bible
Each one betrays his friend; no one tells the truth. They have taught their tongues to lie; they wear themselves out committing iniquity.
Context
3“Huweka tayari ndimi zao kama upinde,
ili kurusha uongo;
wamekuwa na nguvu katika nchi
lakini si katika ukweli.
Wanatoka dhambi moja hadi nyingine,
hawanitambui mimi,”
asema Bwana. 4“Jihadhari na rafiki zako;
usiwaamini ndugu zako.
Kwa kuwa kila ndugu ni mdanganyifu,
na kila rafiki ni msingiziaji. 5Rafiki humdanganya rafiki,
hakuna yeyote asemaye kweli.
Wamefundisha ndimi zao kudanganya,
wanajichosha wenyewe katika kutenda dhambi. 6Unakaa katikati ya udanganyifu;
katika udanganyifu wao wanakataa kunitambua mimi,”
asema Bwana. 7Kwa hiyo hili ndilo asemalo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote:
“Tazama, nitawasafisha na kuwajaribu,
kwani ni nini kingine niwezacho kufanya
kwa sababu ya dhambi ya watu wangu?
