“Yehova akubangula mu Ziyoni

“Chifukwa anthu a ku Damasiko akunka nachimwirachimwira,

Popeza anapuntha Giliyadi

Popeza anatumbula akazi oyembekezera a ku Giliyadi
nʼcholinga choti akuze malire awo,
Ine ndidzayatsa moto pa makoma a ku Raba

Padzakhala kulira kwakukulu pa tsiku la nkhondoyo,

milungu imene makolo awo ankayitsatira,
Ine ndidzatumiza moto pa Yuda,
umene udzanyeketsa nyumba zaufumu za ku Yerusalemu.”
Chilango cha Anthu a ku Israeli
Yehova akuti,
“Chifukwa anthu a ku Israeli akunka nachimwirachimwira,
Ine sindileka kuwalanga.
Iwo amagulitsa anthu olungama ndi siliva,
ndi osauka ndi nsapato.
Amapondereza anthu osauka
ngati akuponda fumbi,
ndipo sawaweruza mwachilungamo anthu oponderezedwa.
Abambo ndi mwana wawo amagonana ndi mtsikana mmodzi yemweyo,
ndipo potero amanyozetsa dzina langa loyera.
Anthuwo amakagonana mʼmbali mwa guwa lililonse la nsembe
pa zovala zimene anatenga ngati chikole.
Mʼnyumba ya mulungu wawo
amamweramo vinyo amene analipiritsa anthu pa milandu.
“Ine ndinawononga Aamori pamaso pawo,
ngakhale iwo anali anthu ataliatali ngati mikungudza
ndiponso amphamvu ngati mitengo ya thundu.
Ndinawononga zipatso zawo
ndiponso mizu yawo.
“Ine ndinakutulutsani ku Igupto,
ndipo ndinakutsogolerani mʼchipululu kwa zaka makumi anayi,
kudzakupatsani dziko la Aamori.
Ine ndinawutsanso ena mwa ana ako kuti akhale aneneri,
ndi ena mwa anyamata ako kuti akhale anaziri.
Kodi si choncho, inu Aisraeli?”
akutero Yehova.
“Koma inu munawamwetsa vinyo anaziri aja,
ndipo munalamula aneneri kuti asanenere.
“Tsono Ine ndidzakupsinjani
monga imapsinjikira ngolo imene yadzaza ndi tirigu.
Munthu waliwiro sadzatha kuthawa,
munthu wamphamvu sadzakhalanso ndi nyonga,
wankhondo sadzapulumutsa moyo wake.
Munthu wa uta sadzalimbika,
msilikali wothamanga kwambiri sadzapulumuka,
ndipo wokwera pa akavalo sadzapulumutsa moyo wake.
Ngakhale asilikali olimba mtima kwambiri
adzathawa ali maliseche pa tsikulo,”
akutero Yehova.
Mboni Zotsutsa Israeli
Inu Aisraeli, imvani mawu awa amene Yehova wayankhula kutsutsana nanu, kutsutsana ndi banja lonse limene analitulutsa mu Igupto:
“Inu nokha ndi amene ndinakusankhani
pakati pa mabanja onse a dziko lapansi;
nʼchifukwa chake ndidzakulangani
chifukwa cha machimo anu onse.”
Kodi anthu awiri nʼkuyendera limodzi
asanapangane?
Kodi mkango umabangula mʼnkhalango
usanagwire nyama?
Kodi msona wamkango umalira mʼphanga mwake
pamene sunagwire kanthu?
Kodi mbalame nʼkutera pa msampha
pamene palibe nyambo yake?
Kodi msampha umafwamphuka
usanakole kanthu?
Kodi pamene lipenga la nkhondo lalira mu mzinda,
anthu sanjenjemera?
Pamene tsoka lafika mu mzinda,
kodi si Yehova amene wachititsa zimenezo?
Zoonadi Ambuye Yehova sachita kanthu
asanawulule zimene akufuna kuchita
kwa atumiki ake, aneneri.
Mkango wabangula,
ndani amene sachita mantha?
Ambuye Yehova wayankhula,
ndani amene sanganenere?
Lengezani zimenezi ku nyumba zaufumu za ku Asidodi
ndiponso ku nyumba zaufumu za ku Igupto:
“Sonkhanani ku mapiri a ku Samariya;
onani chisokonezo pakati pake
ndiponso kuponderezana pakati pa anthu ake.”
“Iwo sadziwa kuchita zolungama,
ndipo amadzaza malo awo otetezedwa ndi zinthu zolanda ku nkhondo ndi zakuba,” akutero Yehova.
Nʼchifukwa chake Ambuye Yehova akunena izi:
“Mdani adzalizungulira dzikoli;
iye adzagwetsa malinga ako,
ndi kufunkha nyumba zako zaufumu.”
Yehova akuti,
“Monga mʼbusa amalanditsa mʼkamwa mwa mkango
miyendo iwiri yokha kapena msonga yokha ya khutu,
moteronso ndimo mmene adzapulumukire Aisraeli
amene amakhala mu Samariya
pa msonga za mabedi awo,
ndi ku Damasiko pa akakhutagona awo.”
“Imvani izi ndipo mupereke umboni wotsutsa nyumba ya Yakobo,” akutero Ambuye, Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse.
“Pa tsiku limene ndidzalange Israeli chifukwa cha machimo ake,
ndidzagumula maguwa ansembe a ku Beteli;
nyanga za guwa zidzathyoka
ndipo zidzagwa pansi.
Ndidzagwetsa nyumba ya pa nthawi yozizira
pamodzi ndi nyumba ya pa nthawi yotentha;
nyumba zokongoletsedwa ndi minyanga ya njovu zidzawonongedwa
ndipo nyumba zikuluzikulu zidzaphwasulidwa,”
akutero Yehova.
Israeli Sanabwerere kwa Mulungu
Imvani mawu awa, inu ngʼombe zazikazi za ku Basani, okhala pa Phiri la Samariya,
inu akazi amene mumapondereza anthu osauka ndi kuzunza anthu osowa
ndi kumanena kwa amuna anu kuti, “Tipatseni zakumwa!”
Ambuye Yehova, mwa kuyera mtima kwake walumbira kuti,
“Nthawi idzafika ndithu
pamene adzakukokani ndi ngowe,
womaliza wa inu adzakokedwa ndi mbedza.
Mudzatulukira mʼmingʼalu ya pa khoma
aliyense payekhapayekha,
ndipo mudzatayidwa ku Harimoni,”
akutero Yehova.
“Bwerani ku Beteli mudzachimwe;
ndi ku Giligala kuti mudzapitirize kuchimwa.
Bweretsani nsembe zanu mmawa uliwonse,
bweretsani chakhumi chanu masiku atatu aliwonse.
Wotchani buledi wokhala ndi yisiti ngati nsembe yachiyamiko
ndi kumanyadira poyera za zopereka zanu zaufulu.
Inu Aisraeli, zinyadireni nsembezo,
pakuti izi ndi zimene mumakonda kuchita,”
akutero Ambuye Yehova.
“Ndine amene ndinakusendetsani milomo mʼmizinda yanu yonse,
ndipo munasowa chakudya mʼmizinda yanu.
Komatu inu simunabwerere kwa Ine,”
akutero Yehova.
“Ndinenso amene ndinamanga mvula
patangotsala miyezi itatu kuti mukolole.
Ndinagwetsa mvula pa mzinda wina,
koma pa mzinda wina ayi,
mvula inkagwa pa munda wina;
koma sinagwe pa munda wina ndipo mbewu zinawuma.
Anthu ankayenda mzinda ndi mzinda kufuna madzi,
koma sanapeze madzi okwanira kumwa.
Komabe inu simunabwerere kwa Ine,”
akutero Yehova.
“Nthawi zambiri ndinakantha mbewu zanu ndiponso minda ya mpesa,
ndinayikantha ndi chinsikwi ndiponso ndi chiwawu.
Dzombe linawononga mikuyu yanu ndi mitengo ya olivi.
Komabe inu simunabwerere kwa Ine,”
akutero Yehova.
“Ine ndinabweretsa miliri pakati panu
monga ndinachitira ku Igupto.
Ndinapha anyamata anu ndi lupanga,
ndinapereka akavalo anu kwa adani.
Ndinakununkhitsani fungo la mitembo lochokera mʼmisasa yanu ya nkhondo.
Komatu inu simunabwerere kwa Ine,”
akutero Yehova.
“Ndinawononga ena mwa inu
monga ndinawonongera Sodomu ndi Gomora.
Inu munali ngati chikuni choyaka chimene chafumulidwa pa moto.
Komabe inu simunabwerere kwa Ine,”
akutero Yehova.
“Choncho izi ndi zimene ndidzakuchitire iwe Israeli,
chifukwa ndidzakuchitira zimenezi,
konzekera kukumana ndi Mulungu wako, iwe Israeli.”
Iye amene amawumba mapiri,
amalenga mphepo,
ndipo amawululira munthu za mʼmaganizo ake,
Iye amene amasandutsa usana kuti ukhale mdima,
ndipo amayenda pa zitunda za dziko lapansi,
dzina lake ndi Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse.
Mawu Odandawulira Aisraeli
Israeli, imva mawu awa, nyimbo ya maliro imene ndikuyimba za iweyo:
“Namwali Israeli wagwa,
moti sadzadzukanso,
wasiyidwa mʼdziko lake lomwe,
popanda woti ndi kumudzutsa.”
Ambuye Yehova akuti,
“Mzinda umene udzapite ku nkhondo ndi anthu 1,000 amphamvu
udzatsala ndi anthu 100 okha;
mzinda umene udzapite ku nkhondo ndi anthu 100 amphamvu
udzatsala ndi anthu khumi okha basi.”
Zimene Yehova akunena kwa nyumba ya Israeli ndi izi:
“Mundifunefune kuti mukhale ndi moyo;
musafunefune Beteli,
musapite ku Giligala,
musapite ku Beeriseba.
Pakuti Giligala adzatengedwa ndithu kupita ku ukapolo,
ndipo Beteli adzawonongekeratu.”
Funani Yehova kuti mukhale ndi moyo,
mukapanda kutero Iye adzatentha nyumba ya Yosefe ngati moto;
motowo udzawononga,
ndipo sipadzakhala wina wozimitsa motowo ku Beteli.
Inu amene mumasandutsa chiweruzo cholungama kukhala chowawa
ndi kunyoza chilungamo.
(Iye amene analenga nyenyezi za Nsangwe ndi Akamwiniatsatana,
amene amasandutsa mdima kuti ukhale mmawa
ndi kudetsa usana kuti ukhale usiku,
amene amayitana madzi a mʼnyanja
ndi kuwathira pa dziko lapansi,
Yehova ndiye dzina lake.
Iyeyo amabweretsa chiwonongeko modzidzimutsa pa anthu amphamvu
ndi kuwononga mizinda yotetezedwa),
inu mumadana ndi amene amadzudzula mʼbwalo la milandu
ndi kunyoza amene amanena zoona.
Mumapondereza munthu wosauka
ndi kumukakamiza kuti akupatseni tirigu.
Nʼchifukwa chake, ngakhale mwamanga nyumba zamiyala yosema,
inuyo simudzakhalamo.
Ngakhale mwalima minda yabwino ya mphesa,
inu simudzamwa vinyo wake.
Pakuti Ine ndikudziwa kuchuluka kwa zolakwa zanu
ndi kukula kwa machimo anu.
Inu mumapondereza anthu olungama ndi kulandira ziphuphu
ndipo anthu osauka simuwaweruza mwachilungamo mʼmabwalo anu amilandu.
Nʼchifukwa chake pa nthawi yotere munthu wanzeru sayankhulapo kanthu,
popeza ndi nthawi yoyipa.
Muyike mtima wanu pa zabwino osati pa zoyipa,
kuti mukhale ndi moyo.
Mukatero Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse adzakhala nanu,
monga mmene mumanenera kuti ali nanu.
Mudane ndi zoyipa, mukonde zabwino;
mukhazikitse chiweruzo cholungama mʼmabwalo anu amilandu.
Mwina mwake Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse adzachitira chifundo
anthu otsala a mʼbanja la Yosefe.
Choncho izi ndi zimene Ambuye, Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse, akunena:
“Mʼmisewu monse mudzakhala kulira mofuwula,
ndi kulira chifukwa cha kuwawa kwa masautso kudzakhala paliponse.
Adzayitana alimi kuti adzalire,
ndipo anthu odziwa maliridwe anthetemya adzalira mofuwula.
Mʼminda yonse ya mpesa mudzakhala kulira kokhakokha,
pakuti Ine ndidzadutsa pakati panu,”
akutero Yehova.
Tsiku la Yehova
Tsoka kwa inu amene mumalakalaka
tsiku la Yehova!
Chifukwa chiyani mumalakalaka tsiku la Yehova?
Tsikulo kudzakhala mdima osati kuwala.
Lidzakhala ngati tsiku limene munthu pothawa mkango
amakumana ndi chimbalangondo,
ngati pamene munthu walowa mʼnyumba,
natsamira dzanja lake pa khoma
ndipo njoka nʼkuluma.
Kodi tsiku la Yehova silidzakhala mdima osati kuwala,
mdima wandiweyani, popanda powala pena paliponse?
“Ndimadana nawo masiku anu achikondwerero ndipo ndimawanyoza;
sindikondwera nayo misonkhano yanu.
Ngakhale mupereke nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachakudya,
Ine sindidzazilandira.
Ngakhale mupereke nsembe zabwino zachiyanjano,
Ine sindidzaziyangʼana nʼkomwe.
Musandisokose nazo nyimbo zanu!
Sindidzamvetsera kulira kwa azeze anu.
Koma chiweruzo cholungama chiyende ngati madzi,
chilungamo ngati mtsinje wosaphwa!
“Kodi pa zaka makumi anayi zimene munakhala mʼchipululu muja
munkandibweretsera nsembe ndi zopereka, inu nyumba ya Israeli?
Inu mwanyamula kachisi wa mfumu yanu,
ndi nyenyezi ija Kaiwani,
mulungu wanu,
mafano amene munadzipangira.
Nʼchifukwa chake Ine ndidzakupititsani ku ukapolo, kutali kupitirira ku Damasiko,”
akutero Yehova, amene dzina lake ndi Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse.
Tsoka kwa Osalabadira Kanthu
Tsoka kwa amene simukulabadira kanthu ku Ziyoni,
ndiponso kwa inu amene mukukhala mwamtendere pa Phiri la Samariya,
inu anthu otchuka ochokera ku mtundu wa anthu omveka,
kumene Aisraeli amafikako!
Pitani ku mzinda wa Kaline mukawuyangʼane;
mukapitenso ku Hamati-raba mzinda waukulu uja,
ndipo mukatsikirenso ku Gati kwa Afilisti.
Kodi mizinda imeneyi ndi yopambana maufumu anu awiriwa?
Kodi dziko lawo ndi lalikulu kupambana lanu?
Inu simulabadirako kuti tsiku loyipa lidzafika,
zochita zanu zimafulumizitsa ulamuliro wankhanza.
Mumagona pa mabedi owakongoletsa ndi minyanga ya njovu,
mumagona pa mipando yanu ya wofuwofu.
Mumadya ana ankhosa onona
ndi ana angʼombe onenepa.
Mumayimba azeze anu ndi kumangopeka
nyimbo pa zingʼwenyengʼwenye ngati Davide.
Mumamwera vinyo mʼzipanda zodzaza
ndipo mumadzola mafuta abwino kwambiri,
koma simumva chisoni ndi kuwonongeka kwa Yosefe.
Nʼchifukwa chake inu mudzakhala mʼgulu la anthu oyamba kupita ku ukapolo;
maphwando ndi zikondwerero zanu zidzatheratu.
Yehova Amanyansidwa ndi Kunyada kwa Israeli
Ambuye Yehova walumbira mʼdzina lake. Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse walengeza kuti,
“Ndimanyansidwa ndi kunyada kwa Yakobo,
ndimadana ndi nyumba zake zaufumu;
Ine ndidzawupereka mzindawu
pamodzi ndi zonse zili mʼmenemo.”
Ngati anthu khumi otsala adzabisala mʼnyumba imodzi, nawonso adzafa ndithu. Ndipo ngati mʼbale wake wa wina wakufayo, woyenera kusamala za maliro, adzafika kudzatulutsa mitembo mʼnyumbamo nʼkufunsa aliyense amene akubisalabe mʼnyumbamo kuti, “Kodi uli ndi wina wamoyo mʼmenemo?” Ndipo munthu wobisalayo ndi kuyankha kuti, “Ayi,” mʼbaleyo adzanena kuti, “Khala chete! Ife tisayerekeze kutchula dzina la Yehova.”
Pakuti Yehova walamula kuti
nyumba zikuluzikulu Iye adzazigamulagamula,
ndipo nyumba zazingʼono zidzasanduka maduka okhaokha.
Kodi akavalo amathamanga pa thanthwe?
Kodi wina amatipula ndi ngʼombe mʼnyanja?
Koma chiweruzo cholungama mwachisandutsa kukhala zinthu zakupha
ndipo chipatso cha chilungamo mwachisandutsa kukhala chowawa.
Inu amene mukunyadira kuti munagonjetsa Lo Debara
ndipo mukunena kuti, “Kodi sitinatenge Karinaimu ndi mphamvu zathu zokha?”
Koma Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse akulengeza kuti,
“Inu nyumba ya Israeli, ndidzakudzutsirani mtundu wina wa anthu
umene udzakuzunzani
kuchokera ku Lebo Hamati mpaka ku Chigwa cha Araba.”
Dzombe, Moto ndi Chingwe Chowongolera Khoma
Zimene Ambuye Yehova anandionetsa ndi izi: Yehova ankasonkhanitsa gulu la dzombe nthawi imene gawo la zokolola za mfumu linali litakololedwa kale ndipo mbewu zachiwiri zinali zitangoyamba kumera kumene. Dzombelo litadya zomera zonse za mʼdzikomo, Ine ndinafuwula kuti, “Ambuye Yehova, khululukani! Kodi Yakobo adzapulumuka bwanji? Iye ndi wofowoka kwambiri!”
Kotero Yehova anakhululuka.
Yehovayo anati, “Izi sizidzachitika.”
Zimene Ambuye Yehova anandionetsa ndi izi: Ambuye Yehova ankayitana malawi a moto kuti alange anthu. Motowo unawumitsa nyanja yakuya ndi kupsereza dziko. Tsono ine ndinafuwula kuti, “Ambuye Yehova, chonde ndikukupemphani, lekani! Kodi Yakobo adzapulumuka bwanji? Iye ndi wofowoka kwambiri!”
Kotero Yehova anakhululuka.
Ambuye Yehova anati, “Izinso sizidzachitika.”
Zimene Iye anandionetsa ndi izi: Ambuye anayima pambali pa khoma lomangamanga, mʼmanja mwake muli chingwe chowongolera khoma. Ndipo Ambuye anandifunsa kuti, “Amosi, nʼchiyani ukuonachi?”
Ine ndinayankha kuti, “Chingwe chowongolera khoma.”
Ndipo Yehova anati, “Taona, Ine ndikuyika chingwe chowongolerachi pakati pa anthu anga, Aisraeli; sindidzawalekereranso.
“Malo achipembedzo a Isake adzawonongedwa
ndipo malo opatulika a Israeli adzasanduka bwinja;
ndidzagwetsa nyumba ya Yeroboamu ndi lupanga langa.”
Amosi ndi Amaziya
Pamenepo Amaziya wansembe wa ku Beteli anatumiza uthenga kwa Yeroboamu mfumu ya Israeli kuti, “Amosi akukuutsirani chiwembu pakati pa Aisraeli. Dziko silingalekerere zonena zake zonsezo. Pakuti zimene Amosi akunena ndi izi:
“ ‘Yeroboamu adzaphedwa ndi lupanga,
ndipo Israeli adzapita ndithu ku ukapolo,
kutali ndi dziko lake.’ ”
Ndipo Amaziya anawuza Amosi kuti, “Choka, mlosi iwe! Bwerera ku dziko la Yuda. Uzikalosera kumeneko ndipo anthu a kumeneko azikakudyetsa. Usanenerenso ku Beteli, chifukwa kumeneko ndi malo opatulika a mfumu ndiponso ndi malo a nyumba yachipembedzo yaufumu.”
Amosi anayankha Amaziya kuti, “Ine sindine mneneri kapena mwana wa mneneri; koma ndine woweta ziweto, ndiponso mlimi wa nkhuyu. Koma Yehova ananditenga ndikuweta nkhosa ndipo anati, ‘Pita ukanenere kwa anthu anga Aisraeli.’ Tsono imva mawu a Yehova. Iwe ukunena kuti,
“ ‘Usanenere zotsutsa Israeli,
ndipo siya kulalikira motsutsa nyumba ya Isake.’ ”
“Tsono zimene akunena Yehova ndi izi:
“ ‘Mkazi wako adzasanduka wachiwerewere mu mzindamu,
ndipo ana ako aamuna ndi aakazi adzaphedwa ndi lupanga.
Munda wako udzayezedwa ndi chingwe ndi kugawidwa,
ndipo iwe mwini udzafera mʼdziko la anthu osapembedza Mulungu.
Ndipo Israeli adzatengedwa ndithu kupita ku ukapolo,
kutali ndi dziko lake.’ ”
Dengu la Zipatso Zakupsa
Zimene Ambuye Yehova anandionetsa ndi izi: dengu la zipatso zakupsa. Iye anandifunsa kuti, “Amosi nʼchiyani ukuona?”
Ine ndinayankha kuti, “Dengu la zipatso zakupsa.”
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa ine, “Nthawi yachimaliziro yawakwanira anthu anga Aisraeli; sindidzawakhululukiranso.
“Tsiku limenelo,” Ambuye Yehova akulengeza kuti, “Nyimbo za mʼNyumba ya Mulungu zidzasanduka kulira kofuwula. Mitembo ya anthu idzachuluka, ndipo adzayiponya ponseponse! Kudzangoti zii!”
Imvani izi, inu amene mumapondereza anthu osowa
ndipo simulabadira anthu osauka a mʼdzikomu.
Mumanena kuti,
“Kodi chikondwerero cha mwezi watsopano chidzatha liti
kuti tigulitse zinthu?
Ndipo tsiku la Sabata litha liti
kuti tigulitse tirigu,
kuti tichepetse miyeso,
kukweza mitengo
kuti tibere anthu ndi miyeso ya chinyengo,
tigule osauka ndi ndalama zasiliva
ndi osowa powapatsa nsapato,
tigulitse ngakhale mungu wa tirigu?”
Yehova amene Yakobo amamunyadira, walumbira kuti: Ine sindidzayiwala chilichonse chimene anachita.
“Kodi dziko silidzagwedezeka chifukwa cha zimenezi,
ndi onse okhala mʼmenemo kulira mwachisoni?
Dziko lonse lidzavunduka ngati mtsinje wa Nailo;
lidzagwedezeka kenaka nʼkukhala bata
ngati mtsinje wa ku Igupto.
“Tsiku limenelo,” Ambuye Yehova akunena kuti,
“Ndidzadetsa dzuwa masana
ndi kugwetsa mdima pa dziko lapansi dzuwa likuswa mtengo.
Maphwando anu achipembedzo ndidzawasandutsa kulira kwa chisoni
ndipo kuyimba kwanu konse ndidzakusandutsa maliro.
Ndidzakuvekani chiguduli nonsenu
ndi kumeta mipala mitu yanu.
Nthawi imeneyo idzakhala ngati yolira mwana wamwamuna mmodzi yekhayo,
ndipo tsikulo lidzakhala lowawa mpaka kutha kwake.
“Nthawi ikubwera,” Ambuye Yehova akunena kuti,
“Ndidzagwetsa njala mʼdziko lonse;
osati njala ya chakudya kapena ludzu la madzi,
koma njala yofuna kumva mawu a Yehova.
Anthu azidzangoyendayenda kuchoka ku nyanja ina kupita ku nyanja ina.
Azidzangoyendayenda kuchoka kumpoto kupita kummawa,
kufunafuna mawu a Yehova,
koma sadzawapeza.
“Tsiku limenelo
“anamwali okongola ndi anyamata amphamvu
adzakomoka ndi ludzu.
Onse amene amalumbira pa tchimo la Samariya,
kapena kumanena kuti, ‘Iwe Dani, pali mulungu wako wamoyo,’
kapena, ‘Pali mulungu wamoyo wa ku Beeriseba.’
Iwowo adzagwa
ndipo sadzadzukanso.”
Israeli Adzawonongedwa
Ine ndinaona Ambuye atayima pambali pa guwa lansembe, ndipo anati:
“Kantha mitu ya nsanamira
kuti ziwundo za nyumba zigwedezeke.
Muzigwetsere pa mitu ya anthu onse,
onse amene atsalira ndidzawapha ndi lupanga.
Palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe amene adzathawe,
palibe amene adzapulumuke.
Ngakhale atakumba pansi mpaka ku malo a anthu akufa,
dzanja langa lidzawatulutsa kumeneko.
Ngakhale atakwera kumwamba
Ine ndidzawatsakamutsa kumeneko.
Ngakhale atakabisala pamwamba pa phiri la Karimeli,
Ine ndidzawasaka kumeneko ndi kuwagwira.
Ngakhale atakabisala pansi pa nyanja yayikulu,
ndidzalamula njoka kuti iwalume kumeneko.
Ngakhale adani awo awakusire ku ukapolo,
ndidzalamula lupanga kuti liwaphe kumeneko.
Ndidzawayangʼanitsitsa
kuti zoyipa ziwagwere; osati zabwino.”
Ambuye Yehova Wamphamvuzonse
amene amakhudza dziko lapansi ndipo dzikolo limasungunuka,
onse amene amakhala mʼmenemo amalira.
Dziko lonse lidzadzaza ngati mtsinje wa Nailo,
kenaka nʼkuphwera ngati mtsinje wa ku Igupto.
Iye amene amamanga malo ake okhalamo kumwamba,
ndi kuyika maziko ake pa dziko lapansi,
Iye amene amayitana madzi a ku nyanja
ndikuwakhuthulira pa dziko lapansi,
dzina lake ndiye Yehova.
“Kodi kwa Ine, inu Aisraeli, simuli
chimodzimodzi ndi Akusi?”
Akutero Yehova.
“Kodi sindine amene ndinatulutsa Israeli ku Igupto,
Afilisti ku Kafitori
ndi Aaramu ku Kiri?
“Taonani, maso a Ambuye Yehova
ali pa ufumu wochimwawu.
Ndidzawufafaniza
pa dziko lapansi.
Komabe sindidzawononga kotheratu
nyumba ya Yakobo,”
akutero Yehova.
“Pakuti ndidzalamula,
ndipo ndidzagwedeza nyumba ya Israeli
pakati pa mitundu yonse ya anthu
monga momwe amasefera ufa mʼsefa,
koma palibe nʼkamwala kamodzi komwe kamene kadzagwe pansi.
Anthu onse ochimwa pakati pa anthu anga
adzaphedwa ndi lupanga,
onse amene amanena kuti,
‘Tsoka silidzatigwera ife kapena kutiwononga.’
Kubwezeretsedwa kwa Israeli
“Tsiku limenelo ndidzabwezeretsa
nyumba ya Davide imene inagwa.
Ndidzakonzanso malo amene anagumuka,
ndi kuyimanganso
monga inalili poyamba,
kuti adzatengenso otsala a Edomu
ndi mitundu yonse imene imatchedwa ndi dzina langa,”
akutero Yehova amene adzachita zinthu izi.
Yehova akunena kuti
“Nthawi ikubwera pamene mlimi wotipula adzapyola wokolola
ndipo woponda mphesa adzapyola wodzala mbewu.
Mapiri adzachucha vinyo watsopano
ndi kuyenderera pa zitunda zonse.
Ndidzawabwezeranso pabwino anthu anga Aisraeli;
mizinda imene inali mabwinja idzamangidwanso ndipo azidzakhalamo.
Adzalima minda ya mpesa ndipo adzamwa vinyo wake;
adzalima minda ndipo adzadya zipatso zake.
Ndidzakhazika Aisraeli mʼdziko mwawo,
ndipo sadzachotsedwamonso mʼdziko
limene Ine ndawapatsa,”
akutero Yehova Mulungu wako.
