Ezekieli 37
1 Dzanja la Yehova linali pa ine, ndipo Mzimu wa Yehova unandinyamula nʼkukandikhazika pakati pa chigwa. Chigwacho chinali chodzaza ndi mafupa.
Ruoko rwaJehovha rwakanga rwuri pamusoro pangu, uye akandibudisa noMweya waJehovha akandiisa pakati pomupata; wakanga uzere namapfupa.
2 Yehova anandiyendetsa uku ndi uku pakati pa mafupawo. Mafupawo anali ochuluka kwambiri mʼchigwa monsemo ndipo anali owuma kwambiri.
Akanditungamirira kuno nokoko pakati pawo, uye ndakaona mapfupa mazhinji zhinji pamusoro pomupata; mapfupa akanga akaoma kwazvo.
3 Tsono Yehova anandifunsa kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi mafupa amenewa angakhalenso ndi moyo?” Ndinayankha kuti, “Inu Ambuye Yehova, Inuyo nokha ndiye mukudziwa.”
Akandibvunza akati, “Mwanakomana womunhu, mapfupa aya angararama here?” Ini ndakati, “Imi Ishe Jehovha, iyemi moga munoziva.”
4 Pamenepo anandiwuza kuti, “Lengeza kwa mafupa amenewa ndi kuwawuza kuti amve mawu a Ine Yehova!
Ipapo iye akati kwandiri, “Profita kumapfupa aya uti kwaari, ‘Imi mapfupa akaoma, inzwai shoko raJehovha:
5 Uwawuze kuti zimene Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikunena kwa mafupa ndi izi: Ndidzawuzira mpweya mwa inu, ndipo mudzakhalanso ndi moyo.
Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha kumapfupa aya: Ndichaisa mweya mukati menyu mugorarama.
6 Ndidzakupatsani mitsempha ndi mnofu. Ndiponso ndidzakukutani ndi khungu. Pambuyo pake ndidzawuzira mpweya mwa inu ndipo mudzakhalanso ndi moyo. Pamenepo mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.”
Ndichaisa marunda pamuri ndigoita kuti muve nenyama pamusoro penyu uye ndichakufukidzai neganda; ndichaisa mweya mukati menyu uye muchava vapenyu. Ipapo muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha.’”
7 Ndipo ndinanenera monga anandilamulira. Ndipo pamene ndinkanenera, ndinamva gobedegobede, ndipo mafupa aja anayamba kulumikizana, fupa ku fupa linzake.
Saka ndakaprofita sezvandakarayirwa. Zvino ndakati ndichiprofita, kwakava nomumvumo, nokurira kwaiti kweche kweche, uye mapfupa akaswededzana, bvupa nebvupa.
8 Ine ndinayangʼana, ndipo mitsempha ndi mnofu zinabwera pa mafupawo ndipo khungu linaphimba pamwamba pake, koma munalibe mpweya mwa iwo.
Ndakatarira, ndikaona marunda nenyama zvavapo uye zvakafukidzwa neganda, asi makanga musina mweya mukati mazvo.
9 Tsono Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Nenera kwa mpweya, nenera iwe mwana wa munthu ndi kuwuza mpweya mawu a Ine Ambuye Yehova kuti, ‘Bwera kuno iwe mpweya. Bwera kuchokera ku mbali zonse zinayi ndi kudzawuzira anthu ophedwawa kuti akhalenso ndi moyo.’
Ipapo akati kwandiri, “Profita kumhepo; profita, mwanakomana womunhu, uti kwairi, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Uya uchibva kumhepo ina, iwe mweya, ufemere mukati maava vakaurayiwa, kuti vararame.’”
10 Choncho ndinanenera monga anandilamulira ndipo mpweya unalowa mwa iwo; apo anthu akufawo anakhala ndi moyo, nayimirira ndipo linali gulu lalikulu lankhondo.”
Saka ndakaprofita sezvaakandirayira, mweya ukapinda mukati mavo; vakararama vakamira netsoka dzavo, iri hondo huru kwazvo.
11 Kenaka Yehova anandiwuza kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, mafupa awa ndi nyumba yonse ya Israeli. Iwo amanena kuti, ‘Mafupa athu awuma ndipo chiyembekezo chathu chatayika, ife tawonongeka!’
Ipapo akati kwandiri, “Mwanakomana womunhu, mapfupa aya ndiyo imba yose yaIsraeri. Ivo vanoti, ‘Mapfupa edu aoma uye hatisisina tariro; taparadzwa hedu.’
12 Nʼchifukwa chake nenera ndi kuwawuza kuti, ‘Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Inu anthu anga, ndidzafukula manda anu, ndipo ndidzakutulutsanimo ndi kukubwezerani ku dziko la Israeli.
Naizvozvo profita uti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Haiwa vanhu vangu, ndiri kuzozarura marinda enyu ndigokubudisai maari; ndichakudzoseraizve kunyika yaIsraeri.
13 Ndipo inu, anthu anga, mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova, pamene ndidzafukula manda anu ndikukutulutsanimo.
Ipapo imi, vanhu vangu, muchaziva kuti ndini Jehovha, pandichazarura marinda enyu ndichikubudisai maari.
14 Ine ndidzayika Mzimu wanga mwa inu ndipo mudzakhalanso ndi moyo. Pambuyo pake ndidzakulowetsani mʼdziko lanulanu. Choncho mudzadziwa kuti Ambuye Yehova ndayankhula zimenezi, ndipo ndidzazichitadi. Ndikutero Ine Yehova!’”
Ndichaisa mweya wangu mukati menyu mugorarama, uye ndichakugarisai munyika yenyu. Ipapo muchaziva kuti ini Jehovha ndakazvitaura, uye ndakazviita, ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha.’”
15 Yehova anandiyankhula kuti:
Shoko raJehovha rakasvika kwandiri richiti,
16 “Iwe mwana wa munthu, tenga ndodo ndipo ulembepo kuti, ‘Ndodo ya Yuda ndi Aisraeli oyanjana nawo.’ Utengenso ndodo ina ndipo ulembepo kuti, ‘Ndodo ya Efereimu, ndiye kuti fuko la Yosefe ndi Aisraeli onse oyanjana nawo.’
“Mwanakomana womunhu, tora rutanda unyore parwuri kuti, ‘ZvaJudha nezvaIsraeri shamwari dzake.’ Ipapo utore rumwe rutanda, ugonyora pamusoro parwo kuti, ‘Rutanda rwaEfuremu, norwaJosefa neimba yose yaIsraeri neshamwari dzake.’
17 Ulumikize ndodo ziwirizi kuti zikhale ndodo imodzi mʼdzanja lako.
Uzvibatanidze pamwe chete zvive rutanda rumwe kuitira kuti zvive rutanda rumwe chete muruoko rwako.
18 “Anthu a mtundu wako akadzakufunsa tanthauzo la zimenezi
“Kana vanhu venyika yako vakakubvunza vachiti, ‘Haungatiudziwo zvaunoreva nechinhu ichi here?’
19 iwe udzawawuze mawu awa a Ine Ambuye Yehova akuti, ‘Ine ndidzatenga ndodo ya Yosefe imene ili mʼdzanja la Efereimu, ndi ya mafuko a Aisraeli oyanjana naye, ndi kuyilumikiza ku ndodo ya Yuda, kuti zikhale ndodo imodzi, ndipo zidzakhaladi ndodo imodzi mʼdzanja langa!’
uti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naJehovha: Ndiri kuzotora rutanda rwaJosefa, rwuri muruoko rwaEfuremu, nerwaIsraeri shamwari dzake, ndigorubatanidza nerwaJudha, ndichiaita rutanda rumwe chete rwehuni, agova rutanda rumwe chete muruoko rwangu.’
20 Ndodo ziwiri zimene udzalembepozo zikadzakhala mʼmanja mwako pamaso pa anthu onse,
Uabate pamberi pavo iwo matanda awakanyora paari
21 udzawawuze kuti Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Ndidzawachotsa Aisraeli pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina kumene anapita ku ukapolo. Ndidzawasonkhanitsa kuchokera ku mbali zonse ndi kubwera nawo ku dziko lawolawo.
ugoti kwavari, ‘Zvanzi naIshe Jehovha: Kubva munyika dzose kwavakanga vaenda ndichadzosera vaIsraeri munyika yavo.
22 Ndidzawasandutsa mtundu umodzi mʼdzikomo, pa mapiri a Israeli. Padzakhala mfumu imodzi yowalamulira, ndipo sadzakhalanso mitundu iwiri kapena kugawikana maufumu awiri.
Ndichavaita rudzi rumwe chete munyika iyo, pamakomo eIsraeri. Pachava namambo mumwe chete pamusoro pavo vose uye havachazovazve marudzi maviri kana kupatsanurwa kuti vave umambo huviri.
23 Sadzadziyipitsanso ndi mafano awo, kapena ndi zinthu zawo zonyansa, kapenanso ndi ntchito zawo zoyipa zilizonse. Ndidzawapulumutsa ku machimo awo onse ndi kuwayeretsa. Choncho adzakhala anthu anga, ndipo Ine ndidzakhala Mulungu wawo.
Havachazozvisvibisizve nezvifananidzo zvavo kana nezvinonyangadza zvavo kana kudarika kuipa kwavo, nokuti ini ndichavaponesa pazvivi zvavo zvokudzokera shure, uye ndichavanatsa. Vachava vanhu vangu uye ini ndichava Mwari wavo.
24 “‘Mtumiki wanga Davide adzakhala mfumu yawo, motero onsewa adzakhala ndi mʼbusa mmodzi. Iwo adzatsatira malamulo anga ndipo adzasamalira kusunga malangizo anga.
“‘Muranda wangu Dhavhidhi achava mambo pamusoro pavo, uye vose vachava nomufudzi mumwe chete. Vachatevera mirayiro yangu uye vachachenjerera kuchengeta mitemo yangu.
25 Iwo adzakhala mʼdziko limene ndinalipereka kwa mtumiki wanga Yakobo, dziko limene makolo anu ankakhalamo. Iwo ndi ana awo pamodzi ndi zidzukulu zawo adzakhala kumeneko ndipo Davide adzakhala mfumu yawo kwa muyaya.
Vachagara munyika yandakapa kumuranda wangu Jakobho, iyo nyika yaigara madzibaba avo. Vachagaramo nokusingaperi ivo navana vavo navana vavana vavo uye Dhavhidhi muranda wangu achava muchinda wavo nokusingaperi.

Ndichaita sungano yorugare navo; ichava sungano isingaperi. Ndichavasimbisa, ndichavawanza uye ndichaisa nzvimbo yangu tsvene pakati pavo nokusingaperi.
27 Nyumba yanga yokhalamo idzakhala pakati pawo; Ine ndidzakhala Mulungu wawo, ndipo iwo adzakhala anthu anga.
Ugaro hwangu huchava pakati pavo, ini ndichava Mwari wavo, uye ivo vachava vanhu vangu.
28 Pamenepo anthu a mitundu ina adzadziwa kuti Ine Yehova ndiye amene ndimasandutsa Israeli kukhala woyera, pamene malo anga opatulika adzakhala pakati pawo kwamuyaya!’”
Ipapo ndudzi dzichaziva kuti ini Jehovha ndinoita Israeri kuti ave mutsvene, kana nzvimbo yangu tsvene ikagara pakati pavo nokusingaperi.’”
