Ezekieli 20
1 Tsiku lakhumi la mwezi wachisanu, chaka chachisanu ndi chiwiri, ena mwa akuluakulu a Israeli anabwera kudzapempha nzeru kwa Yehova, ndipo anakhala pansi pamaso panga.
Awo mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu, mu mwezi ogwokutaano ku lunaku olw’ekkumi, abamu ku bakadde ba Isirayiri ne bajja okwebuuza ku Mukama Katonda, ne batuula wansi mu maaso gange.
2 Tsono Yehova anandiyankhula nati:
Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira, mbategeeze nti,
3 “Iwe mwana wa munthu, ayankhule akuluakulu a Israeli ndi kuwawuza kuti, ‘Ambuye Yehova akuti: Kodi mwabwera kudzapempha nzeru kwa Ine? Ndithu pali Ine wamoyo, Ine sindidzakulolani kupempha nzeru kwa Ine, akutero Ambuye Yehova.’
“Omwana w’omuntu, yogera eri abakadde ba Isirayiri obagambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti: Muzze kunneebuuzaako? Mazima nga bwe ndi omulamu temujja kunneebuuzaako, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.’
4 “Kodi uwaweruza? Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi ugamula mlandu wawo? Uwadziwitse tsono zonyansa zimene anachita makolo awo, uwawuze kuti,
“Olibasalira omusango? Olibasalira omusango ggwe omwana w’omuntu? Kale bategeeze ebikolwa eby’ekivve bajjajjaabwe bye baakola,
5 ‘Ambuye Yehova akuti: Pa tsiku limene ndinasankha Israeli, ndinalumbira kwa zidzukulu za nyumba ya Yakobo ndipo ndinadziwulula kwa iwo ku Igupto. Ndinalumbira ndi kuwawuza kuti: Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.
era bategeeze nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti: ku lunaku lwe, neroboza Isirayiri, nalayirira bazzukulu b’ennyumba ya Yakobo, ne mbeeyabiza mu Misiri nga njogera nti, “Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.”
6 Pa tsiku limenelo ndinalumbira kwa iwo kuti ndidzawatulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto ndi kupita nawo ku dziko limene ndinawapezera, dziko la mwana alirenji, dziko lokongola kwambiri kupambana mayiko ena.
Ku lunaku olwo nabalayirira nti ndibaggya mu nsi y’e Misiri ne mbatwala mu nsi gye nabanoonyeza, ensi ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki, ensi esinga mu nsi zonna obulungi.
7 Ndipo ndinawawuza kuti, ‘Aliyense ataye zinthu zonse zonyansa zimene ankasangalala nazo, ndipo musadziyipitse ndi mafano a Igupto, Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.’
Ne mbagamba nti, “Buli muntu aggyewo ebintu eby’omuzizo mu maaso ge, muleme okweyonoonyesa ne bakatonda abalala ab’e Misiri, kubanga nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.”
8 “‘Koma iwo anandiwukira ndipo sanafune kundimvera. Palibe amene anataya zonyansa zonse zimene ankasangalala nazo. Panalibenso amene anasiya mafano a ku Igupto. Tsono ndinaganiza zowakhuthulira ukali wanga ndi kuwaonetsa mkwiyo wanga mʼdziko la Igupto momwemo.
“‘Naye ne banjeemera, ne bagaana okumpuliriza; tebaggyawo bintu eby’omuzizo mu maaso gaabwe, newaakubadde okuleka bakatonda abalala ab’e Misiri. Kyenava njogera nti ndibabonerereza mu Misiri.
9 Koma sindinachite zimenezi chifukwa cha dzina langa, kuti lisayipitsidwe pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina amene ankakhala pakati pawo. Paja ndinali nditaonetsa mphamvu zanga pamaso pa mitunduyo potulutsa Aisraeli mʼdziko la Igupto.
Naye olw’obutavumisa linnya lyange mu maaso g’amawanga mwe baabeeranga, ne mu maaso gaabo be neeyabiza eri Abayisirayiri nga mbaggya mu Misiri, nakola bwe nti olw’erinnya lyange.
10 Choncho ndinawatulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto ndi kubwera nawo mʼchipululu.
Kyenava mbaggya mu Misiri ne mbatwala mu ddungu.
11 Ndinawapatsa malangizo anga ndi kuwadziwitsa malamulo anga amene munthu aliyense akawamvera adzakhala ndi moyo.
Nabawa ebiragiro byange ne mbamanyisa n’amateeka gange, omuntu yenna bw’abigoberera abeere mulamu.
12 Ndinawapatsanso Masabata ngati chizindikiro pakati pathu, kuti adziwe kuti Ine Yehova ndinawapatula.
Ne mbawa ne Ssabbiiti zange ng’akabonero wakati wange nabo, bategeere nga nze Mukama abatukuza.
13 “‘Komabe anthu a Israeli anandiwukira mʼchipululu. Iwo sanatsatire malangizo anga koma anakana malamulo anga amene munthu aliyense akawamvera adzakhala ndi moyo. Ndipo anayipitsa kotheratu Masabata anga. Choncho, ndinaganiza zowakhuthulira ukali wanga ndi kuwawononga mʼchipululu.
“‘Naye era abantu ba Isirayiri ne banjeemera mu ddungu, ne batagoberera biragiro byange, ne banyooma amateeka gange, ebyandiyinzizza okulokola omuntu abigondera, ne Ssabbiiti zange ne batazitukuza. Kyenava njogera nti ndibasunguwalira ne mbazikiririza mu ddungu.
14 Koma sindinachite zimenezi chifukwa cha dzina langa, kuti lisayipitsidwe pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina amene anandiona ndikutulutsa Aisraeliwo mu Igupto.
Naye olw’erinnya lyange nakola ekyo obutavumisibwa obuteeswaza mu maaso g’amawanga mwe nabaggya.
15 Ndinalumbiranso kwa iwo mʼchipululu muja, nditakweza dzanja, kuti sindidzawalowetsanso mʼdziko limene ndinawapatsa, dziko la mwana alirenji, lokoma kwambiri kuposa mayiko ena onse.
Era ne mbalayirira mu ddungu nga bwe siribaleeta mu nsi gye nnali mbawadde, ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki, ensi esinga endala zonna obulungi,
16 Paja anakana malamulo anga, sanatsatire malangizo anga ndipo anayipitsa masabata anga. Mitima yawo inakonda mafano.
kubanga baajeemera amateeka gange ne batagoberera biragiro byange, ne batatukuza Ssabbiiti zange, kubanga emitima gyabwe gyasinzanga bakatonda abalala.
17 Komabe ndinawamvera chisoni ndipo sindinawawononge kapena kuwatheratu mʼchipululu.
Naye wakati mu ebyo byonna ne mbasaasira ne sibazikiriza, newaakubadde okubasaanyaawo mu ddungu.
18 Tsono kwa ana awo mʼchipululu ndinati, ‘Musatsatire malangizo a makolo anu kapena kusunga malamulo awo kapena kudziyipitsa ndi mafano awo.
Ne ŋŋamba abaana baabwe mu ddungu nti, “Temugoberera biragiro bya bakitammwe, newaakubadde okukwata amateeka gaabwe, so temweyonoonyesanga ne bakatonda baabwe abalala.
19 Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu; tsatirani malangizo anga ndipo sungani malamulo anga.
Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe, mugoberere ebiragiro byange era mwegendereze okukwata amateeka gange,
20 Masabata anga muziwasunga ngati opatulika kuti akhale chizindikiro pakati pa Ine ndi inu. Mukatero mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu.’
n’okutukuza Ssabbiiti zange, era ebyo binaabanga kabonero wakati wange nammwe, olwo mulimanya nga nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.”
21 “‘Koma ana awo anandiwukira. Iwo sanatsatire malangizo anga, sanamvere malamulo anga, ngakhale kuti amapereka moyo kwa munthu amene amawamvera. Ndiponso anayipitsa Masabata anga. Choncho ndinaganiza zowakhuthulira ukali wanga ndi kuwawonongeratu mʼchipululu momwemo.
“‘Naye abaana banjeemera; tebaagoberera biragiro byange newaakubadde okukwata amateeka gange, ebyandiyinzizza okulokola omuntu abigondera, ne Ssabbiiti zange ne batazitukuza. Kyenava njogera nti ndibasunguwalira mu ddungu.
22 Koma sindinatero chifukwa cha dzina langa kuti lisayipitsidwe pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina amene anandiona ndikutulutsa Aisraeliwo mu Iguptomo.
Naye neekuuma olw’erinnya lyange obutaliswaza mu maaso g’amawanga mwe nnali mbaggye.
23 Choncho ndinalumbira mʼchipululu, nditakweza dzanja langa, kuti ndidzawabalalitsa pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina ndi kuwamwazira ku mayiko akutali,
Era ne mbalayirira mu ddungu nti ndibasaasaanya mu mawanga, ne mbabunya mu nsi,
24 chifukwa sanamvere malamulo anga, anakana malangizo anga, nayipitsa masabata anga, ndi kupembedza mafano a makolo awo.
kubanga tebaagoberera mateeka gange era ne bajeemera n’ebiragiro byange, era ne batatukuza Ssabbiiti zange, naye amaaso gaabwe ne gayaayaanira bakatonda abalala aba bajjajjaabwe.
25 Ine ndinawapatsanso malangizo amene sanali abwino ndi malamulo amene sakanatha kupeza nawo moyo.
Kyennava mbawaayo eri ebiragiro ebitali birungi n’amateeka ebitayinza kubabeezesaawo mu bulamu;
26 Ndinawalekerera kuti adziyipitse ndi mphatso zawo zomwe, makamaka popereka ana awo oyamba kubadwa ngati nsembe zopsereza. Ndinatero kuti ndiwadetse nkhawa ndi kuti adziwe kuti Ine ndine Yehova.’
ne mbaswaza nga nkozesa ebirabo byabwe, bwe baleeta omuggulanda waabwe ng’ekiweebwayo, balyoke bajjule entiisa, era bamanye nga nze Mukama.’
27 “Tsono iwe mwana wa munthu, yankhula nawo Aisraeli ndipo uwawuze kuti, ‘Ambuye Yehova akuti makolo anu anandinyozanso posaonetsa moyo wokhulupirika.
“Kale omwana w’omuntu, yogera eri abantu ba Isirayiri obagambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti: mu kino nakyo bajjajjammwe mwe banvumira ne banzivoola.
28 Nditawalowetsa mʼdziko limene ndinachita kulumbirira kuti ndidzawapatsa, iwo tsono ankapita kulikonse kumene anaona chitunda chachitali ndi mtengo wa masamba ambiri kukapereka kumeneko nsembe ndi zopereka zawo zimene zinkandikwiyitsa. Kumeneko ankapereka nsembe za fungo lokoma ndiponso nsembe za zakumwa.
Bwe nabaleeta mu nsi gye nabalayirira ne balaba buli lusozi oluwanvu na buli muti ogwamera yo, ne baweerangayo ssaddaaka zaabwe, ne baweerangayo ebiweebwayo ebyannyiiza, ne banyookerezanga obubaane bwabwe, era ne baweerangayo n’ebiweebwayo ebyokunywa.
29 Tsono ndinawafunsa kuti: Kodi chitunda chimene mukupitako nʼchotani? Chitundachi chakhala chikutchedwa mpaka lero kuti ‘Chitunda cha Chipembedzo.’
Kyenava mbabuuza nti, Ekifo ekyo ekigulumivu gye mugenda kya mugaso ki?’”
30 “Tsono uwawuze Aisraeli kuti, ‘Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Kodi mudzadziyipitsa nokha monga anachitira makolo anu ndi kuchita chigololo ndi milungu yawo yonyansa?
“Noolwekyo gamba ennyumba ya Isirayiri nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Mulyeyonoona nga bajjajjammwe bwe baakola ne mugoberera ebintu eby’ekivve?
31 Pamene mubwera kudzapereka mphatso zanu ndi kudzapereka ana kuti akhale ngati nsembe zopsereza mumadziyipitsa ndi mafano anu mpaka lero. Kodi Aisraeli, ndingathe kukulolani bwanji kuti mulandire malangizo kwa Ine? Ndithu pali Ine wamoyo, akutero Ambuye Yehova, sindidzalola kuti mupemphe nzeru kwa Ine.
Bwe muwaayo ebirabo, ne muwaayo n’abaana bammwe mu muliro ng’ebiweebwayo, mweyongera okweyonoona ne bakatonda bammwe abalala bonna. Nnyinza okubakkiriza okunneebuuzaako mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri? Nga bwe ndi omulamu temujja kunneebuuzaako, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
32 “‘Inu munanena kuti, ‘Tikufuna tikhale ngati anthu a mitundu ina, ngati anthu adziko lapansi, amene amapembedza mtengo ndi mwala.’ Koma zimene mukuganizazo sizidzachitika.
“‘Mwogera nti, “Twagala okuba ng’amawanga amalala, ng’abantu ab’ensi endala, abaweereza embaawo n’amayinja,” naye ebyo bye mulowooza tebiribaawo n’akatono.
33 Ndithu pali Ine wamoyo, akutero Ambuye Yehova, ndi dzanja langa lamphamvu, nditasamula mkono wanga mokwiya kwambiri, Ine ndidzakhala wokulamulani.
Nga bwe ndi omulamu, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda, ndibafuga n’omukono ogw’amaanyi, era ndigolola omukono gwange n’obusungu bungi.
34 Ndidzakuchotsani pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina ndikukusonkhanitsani kuchokera ku mayiko kumene munamwazikirako, ndi dzanja langa lamphamvu ndi lotambasuka ndili wokwiya kwambiri.
Ndibaggya mu mawanga n’omukono ogw’amaanyi omugolole, nga nzijudde obusungu, ne mbakuŋŋaanya okuva mu nsi gye mwasaasaanira.
35 Ndidzakulowetsani mʼchipululu cha anthu a mitundu ina ndipo kumeneko, moonana maso ndi maso, ndidzakuzengani mlandu.
Ndibaleeta mu ddungu ery’amawanga, era eyo gye ndibasalira omusango nga tutunuuliganye amaaso n’amaaso.
36 Monga ndinawalangira makolo anu mʼchipululu cha dziko la Igupto, motero ndidzakulangani, akutero Ambuye Yehova.
Nga bwe nasalira bajjajjammwe omusango mu ddungu ery’ensi ya Misiri, bwe ntyo bwe ndibasalira omusango, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
37 Ndidzakuwerengani ndi ndodo ya mʼbusa, kukulowetsani mʼchimango cha pangano langa.
Ndibeetegereza nga muyita wansi w’omuggo gwange ne mbassaako envumbo y’endagaano yange.
38 Ndidzakuchotserani anthu amene anandigalukira ndi kundiwukira. Ngakhale ndidzawatulutsa mʼdziko limene akukhalamo, koma sadzalowamo mʼdziko la Israeli. Pamenepo mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.
Ndibamaliramu ddala mu mmwe abajeemu era abansobya. Era newaakubadde nga ndibaggya mu nsi gye balimu, tebaliyingira mu nsi ya Isirayiri, mulyoke mumanye nga nze Mukama.
39 “‘Koma inu Aisraeli, zimene ndikunena Ine Ambuye Yehova ndi izi: Pitani katumikireni mafano anu onse, aliyense wa inu! Koma mʼtsogolo mwake mudzandimvera ndithu ndipo simudzayipitsa dzina langa lopatulika popereka mphatso zanu kwa mafano.
“‘Ate ggwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri, bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Mugende muweereze bakatonda bammwe abalala, mugende, naye oluvannyuma mulimpuliriza, ne mulekayo n’okuvumisa erinnya lyange ettukuvu n’ebirabo byammwe era ne bakatonda bammwe abalala.
40 Pakuti pa phiri langa lopatulika, phiri lalitali la ku Israeli, akutero Ambuye Yehova, Aisraeli onse adzanditumikira, ndipo kumeneko Ine ndidzawalandira. Kumeneko ndidzayembekeza zopereka zanu ndi mphatso zanu zopambana, pamodzi ndi nsembe zanu zonse zopatulika.
Ku lusozi lwange olutukuvu, olusozi oluwanvu olwa Isirayiri mu nsi eyo, ennyumba ya Isirayiri yonna balimpeereza, nange ndibasembeza. Era eyo gye ndibasabira ebiweebwayo byammwe, n’ebibala ebibereberye eby’ebirabo byammwe, wamu ne ssaddaaka zammwe ezitukuzibbwa.
41 Ndidzakulandirani ngati nsembe ya fungo lokoma ndikadzakutulutsani pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina ndi kukusokhanitsani kuchokera ku mayiko kumene munabalalitsidwirako. Motero ndidzadzionetsa pakati panu kuti ndine woyera ndipo mitundu ya anthu idzaona.
Bwe ndibaggya mu mawanga ne mbakuŋŋaanya okuva mu nsi gye mwasaasaanira, ndibakkiriza nga bwenzikiriza akaloosa ak’evvumbe eddungi, era ndibalaga obutukuvu bwange mu maaso g’amawanga.
42 Tsono mudzadziwa kuti ndine Yehova ndikadzabwera nanu ku dziko la Israeli, dziko limene ndinalumbira kuti ndidzapereka kwa makolo anu.
Mulimanya nga nze Mukama, bwe ndibaleeta mu nsi ya Isirayiri ensi gye nalayirira bajjajjammwe n’omukono ogugoloddwa.
43 Kumeneko mudzakumbukira makhalidwe anu ndi machitidwe anu onse amene munadziyipitsa nawo, ndipo mudzanyansidwa nokha chifukwa cha zoyipa zimene munachita.
Era eyo gye mulijjuukirira enneeyisa yammwe n’ebikolwa byammwe byonna bye mweyonoonyesa, era mulyetukuza olw’ebibi byonna bye mwakola.
44 Inu mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova, ndikadzakuchitirani zabwino chifukwa cha dzina langa koma osati molingana ndi njira zanu zoyipa ndi machitidwe anu okhota, inu Aisraeli, akutero Ambuye Yehova.’”
Mulimanya nga nze Mukama, bwe ndibakola ng’erinnya lyange bwe liri so si ng’ebibi byammwe bwe biri, n’ebikolwa byammwe eby’obukumpanya bwe biri, mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.’”
45 Yehova anandiyankhula nati:
Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira nti,
46 “Iwe mwana wa munthu, tembenuka uyangʼane kummwera; ndipo lalika mawu odzudzula anthu akummwera ndipo unenere zodzudzula dziko la nkhalango ya kummwera.
“Omwana w’omuntu, simba amaaso go mu bukiikaddyo, obabuulire era owe obunnabbi gye bali n’eri ekibira eky’ensi ey’Obukiikaddyo.
47 Iwuze nkhalango yakummwera kuti, ‘Imvani mawu a Yehova! Ambuye Yehova akuti: Ndikuyatsa moto ndipo motowo udzapsereza mitengo yako yonse yayiwisi ndi yowuma yomwe. Malawi ake sadzazimitsika ndipo aliyense kuchokera kummwera mpaka kumpoto adzapsa nawo.
Yogera eri ekibira eky’omu bukiikaddyo nti, ‘Wulira ekigambo kya Mukama. Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Nnaatera okukukumako omuliro, era gulizikiriza emiti gyonna, omubisi n’omukalu. Ennimi ez’omuliro tezirizikizibwa, na buli ludda okuva mu bukiikaddyo okutuuka mu bukiikakkono bulyokebwa.
48 Aliyense adzadziwa kuti Ine Yehova ndi amene ndayatsa motowo, ndipo sudzazimitsidwa.’”
Buli muntu aliraba nga nze Mukama abyokezza, era tegulizikizibwa.’”
49 Ndipo ine ndinati, “Aa, Ambuye Yehova! Anthu akungondinena kuti, ‘Kodi suja amangonena nthano chabe ameneyu!’”
Awo ne njogera nti, “Ayi Mukama Katonda, banjogerako nti, ‘Oyo tanyumya ngero bugero.’”
