1 Awo n’anjolesa Yoswa, kabona asinga obukulu, ng’ayimiridde mu maaso ga malayika wa Mukama, ne Setaani ng’ayimiridde ku mukono gwe ogwa ddyo okumulumiriza.
Pamenepo anandionetsa Yoswa, mkulu wa ansembe, atayima pamaso pa mngelo wa Yehova, ndipo Satana anayima ku dzanja lake lamanja kuti atsutsane naye.
2 Mukama n’agamba Setaani nti, “Mukama akunenye ggwe Setaani, weewaawo Mukama eyeerondedde Yerusaalemi akunenye! Omusajja ono si kisiki ekyaka ekigibbwa mu muliro?”
Yehova anawuza Satana kuti, “Yehova akukudzudzula iwe Satana! Yehova amene wasankha Yerusalemu akukudzudzula! Kodi munthu uyu sali ngati chikuni choyaka chofumula pa moto?”
3 Awo Yoswa yali ayimiridde mu maaso ga malayika ng’ayambadde ebyambalo ebijjudde ekko.
Tsono Yoswa anali atavala zovala zalitsiro pa nthawi imene anayima pamaso pa mngelo.
4 Malayika n’agamba abaali bayimiridde mu maaso ge nti, “Mumwambulemu ebyambalo bye ebijjudde ekko.” N’agamba Yoswa nti, “Laba nkuggyeeko ekibi kyo, era nnaakwambaza ebyambalo eby’omuwendo.”
Mngelo uja anawuza anzake amene anali naye kuti, “Muvuleni zovala zake zalitsirizo.” Kenaka anawuza Yoswa kuti, “Taona, ndachotsa tchimo lako, ndipo ndikuveka zovala zokongola.”
5 Ne njogera nti, “Mumusibe ekiremba ekitukula ku mutwe gwe.” Awo ne bamusiba ekiremba ekitukula ku mutwe, ne bamwambaza n’engoye, nga malayika wa Mukama ayimiridde awo.
Ndipo ine ndinati, “Muvekeni nduwira yopatulika pamutu pake.” Choncho anamuveka nduwira yopatulika pamutu pake, namuvekanso zovala zatsopano. Nthawiyi nʼkuti mngelo wa Yehova atayima pambali.
6 Malayika wa Mukama n’akuutira nnyo Yoswa ng’ayogera nti,
Mngelo wa Yehova analimbikitsa Yoswa kuti,
7 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye nti, ‘Bw’onootambuliranga mu makubo gange, era noonywezanga bye nkukuutira, kale, onoofuganga ennyumba yange era onoolamulanga mu mbuga zange, era ndikuwa ekifo obeere mu abo abayimiridde wano.
“Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, ‘Ngati uyenda mʼnjira zanga ndi kusunga malamulo anga, pamenepo udzalamulira nyumba yanga ndi kuyangʼanira mabwalo anga, ndipo ndidzakulolani kuti mudzakhale pamodzi ndi amene ali panowa.
8 “‘Kale wulira, Yoswa kabona asinga obukulu, ggwe ne banno abatuula mu maaso go, abantu kw’otegeerera eby’omu maaso, laba ndireeta omuweereza wange, ye Ttabi.
“‘Mvera tsono, iwe Yoswa mkulu wa ansembe, pamodzi ndi anzako amene wakhala nawowa, amene ndi chizindikiro cha zinthu zimene zikubwera: Ine ndidzabweretsa mtumiki wanga, wotchedwa Nthambi.
9 Kubanga laba, ku jjinja lye ntadde mu maaso ga Yoswa, ku jjinja erimu eririna amaaso omusanvu, laba nditeekako ebiwandiiko,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye. ‘Mu lunaku lumu ndiggyawo ekibi ky’ensi eno.
Taona, mwala wokongola umene ndayika patsogolo pa Yoswa! Pa mwala umenewu pali maso asanu ndi awiri, ndipo Ine ndidzalembapo mawu,’ akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, ‘ndipo ndidzachotsa tchimo la dziko lino tsiku limodzi.
10 “‘Ku lunaku luli, buli omu ku mmwe, aliyita muliraanwa we okutuulako wansi w’omuzabbibu gwe ne wansi w’omutiini gwe,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye.”
“‘Tsiku limenelo aliyense adzayitana mnzake kuti akhale pansi pa mtengo wamphesa ndi wa mkuyu,’ akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.”
