< Amanani 9 >
1 Ngenyanga yakuqala ngomnyaka wesibili ngemva kokuphuma kwabo eGibhithe uThixo wakhuluma loMosi enkangala yaseSinayi, wathi,
Yehova anayankhula ndi Mose mʼchipululu cha Sinai pa mwezi woyamba wa chaka chachiwiri atatuluka mu Igupto, nati,
2 “Yenza abako-Israyeli bagcine iPhasika ngesikhathi esimisiweyo.
“Aisraeli azichita Paska pa nthawi yake yoyikika.
3 Gcinani umkhosi walo ngesikhathi esimisiweyo, kusihlwa ngosuku lwetshumi lane lwayonale inyanga, ngokwezimiso kanye lemithetho yawo.”
Muzichita Paska pa nthawi yake yoyikika, madzulo a tsiku la 14 la mwezi uno, potsata malamulo ndi malangizo ake.”
4 Ngakho uMosi watshela abako-Israyeli ukuthi bagcine iPhasika,
Choncho Mose anawuza Aisraeli kuti azichita Paska,
5 benza njalo kusihlwa ngosuku lwetshumi lane lwenyanga yakuqala enkangala yaseSinayi. Abako-Israyeli benza konke njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
ndipo anachitadi Paskayo mʼchipululu cha Sinai madzulo a tsiku la 14 la mwezi woyamba. Aisraeli anachita zonse monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose.
6 Kodwa abanye babo abazange bagcine iPhasika ngalolosuku ngoba babengcolile ngokomkhuba ngenxa yesidumbu. Ngakho beza kuMosi lo-Aroni ngalolosuku
Koma ena a iwo sanathe kuchita nawo Paska pa tsiku limenelo chifukwa anali odetsedwa chifukwa chokhudza mtembo. Choncho anabwera kwa Mose ndi Aaroni tsiku lomwelo,
7 bathi kuMosi, “Sesingcolile ngenxa yesidumbu, kambe kungani sinqatshelwa ukwethula umnikelo kaThixo kanye labanye bako-Israyeli ngesikhathi esimisiweyo na?”
ndipo anawuza Moseyo kuti, “Ife tadetsedwa chifukwa cha mtembo wa munthu. Nʼchifukwa chiyani taletsedwa kupereka nsembe kwa Yehova pamodzi ndi Aisraeli ena pa nthawi yake?”
8 UMosi wabaphendula wathi, “Manini, ukuze ngizwe ukuthi uThixo uzakuthini ngani.”
Mose anawayankha kuti, “Dikirani mpaka nditamva zimene Yehova walamula zokhudza Inu.”
9 Ngakho uThixo wathi kuMosi,
Ndipo Yehova anawuza Mose kuti,
10 “Tshono kwabako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Nxa omunye wenu loba ubani wakini kumbe izizukulwane zenu ezingcoliswe yisidumbu kumbe ethethe uhambo, angagcina iPhasika likaThixo.
“Uza Aisraeli kuti, ‘Pamene wina mwa inu kapena zidzukulu zanu adetsedwa chifukwa chokhudza mtembo wa munthu, kapena akakhala pa ulendo, akhoza kuchita nawo Paska ya Yehova.
11 Bangagcina lumkhosi kusihlwa ngosuku lwetshumi lane lwenyanga yesibili. Kabadle iwundlu, kanye lesinkwa esingelamvubelo lemibhida ebabayo.
Azichita chikondwererochi madzulo a pa tsiku la 14 la mwezi wachiwiri. Azidya mwana wankhosa wamwamuna pamodzi ndi buledi wopanda yisiti ndi ndiwo zowawa zamasamba.
12 Bangatshiyi lutho lwakho kuze kuse kumbe ukwephula loba yiliphi lamathambo alo. Nxa begcina iPhasika, kabalandele yonke imithetho yalo.
Iwo asasiye nyama ina iliyonse mpaka mmawa. Asaswe mafupa aliwonse. Pamene akuchita chikondwerero cha Paska, atsate malangizo onse.
13 Kodwa nxa umuntu ehlambulukile ngokomkhuba njalo engekho ohanjweni ehluleke ukugcina iPhasika, lowomuntu kasuswe ebantwini bakibo ngoba engethulanga umnikelo kaThixo ngesikhathi esimisiweyo. Lowomuntu uzathwala umlandu wesono sakhe.
Koma ngati munthu wina ali woyeretsedwa ndipo sali pa ulendo koma alephera kuchita Paska, munthu ameneyo achotsedwe pakati pa anthu a mtundu wake chifukwa sanabweretse chopereka cha Yehova pa nthawi yake. Munthu ameneyo adzalangidwa chifukwa cha tchimo lake.
14 Owezizweni ohlala phakathi kwenu ofuna ukugcina iPhasika likaThixo kakwenze ngokwezimiso kanye lemithetho yalo. Wobani lezimiso zinye kowezizweni kanye lowakini.’”
“‘Mlendo amene akukhala pakati panu, nafuna kuchita nawo Paska ya Yehova, achite nawo motsata malamulo ndi malangizo ake. Muzikhala ndi malangizo ofanana a Paska; mbadwa kapena mlendo.’”
15 Ngosuku okwamiswa ngalo ithabanikeli, ithente lobuFakazi lamiswa, iyezi lalisibekela. Kusukela kusihlwa kwaze kwasa iyezi elaliphezu kwethabanikeli lalinjengomlilo.
Pa tsiku limene anayimika chihema, tenti ya umboni, mtambo unaphimba chihemacho. Kuyambira madzulo mpaka mmawa, mtambo umene unali pamwamba pa chihemacho unkaoneka ngati moto.
16 Laqhubeka linjalo; lembeswe liyezi, ebusuku lalinjengomlilo.
Zinkachitika motere mosalekeza: mtambo unkakhala pamwamba pa chihema, ndipo usiku unkaoneka ngati moto.
17 Kwakusithi iyezi lingaphakama lisuka phezu kwethente, abako-Israyeli labo babesuka bahambe kuthi lapho elima khona, abako-Israyeli bamise izihonqo zabo khona.
Nthawi ina iliyonse mtambo ukachoka pamwamba pa chihema, Aisraeli ankasamukanso, ndipo paliponse pamene mtambo wayima, Aisraeli ankamangapo misasa.
18 Abako-Israyeli babesuka bahambe ngokulaya kukaThixo, kuthi njalo ngokulaya kwakhe bamise izihonqo zabo. Ngesikhathi sonke iyezi limi phezu kwethabanikeli, abako-Israyeli bahlala ezihonqweni zabo.
Aisraeli ankasamuka pamalopo Yehova akawalamula, ndipo ankamanganso misasa Iyeyo akawalamula. Nthawi yonse imene mtambowo wayima pa chihema, ankakhalabe mʼmisasa yawo.
19 Lapho iyezi lihlala isikhathi eside phezu kwethabanikeli, abako-Israyeli bamlalela uThixo abaze bahamba.
Mtambowo ukakhala pa chihema nthawi yayitali, Aisraeli ankasungabe lamulo la Yehova ndipo iwo sankasamukanso.
20 Kwesinye isikhathi iyezi lalisima phezu kwethabanikeli okwezinsukwana nje kuphela; ngokulaya kukaThixo babehlala ezihonqweni khonapho, kuthi njalo ngokulaya kwakhe basuke bahambe.
Nthawi zina mtambowo unkakhala pa chihemapo masiku owerengeka. Aisraeli ankamanga misasa molamulidwa ndi Yehova ndipo ankasamukanso molamulidwa ndi Iyeyo.
21 Kwesinye isikhathi iyezi lalisima kusukela kusihlwa kuze kuse, kuthi nxa lisuka ekuseni, labo bahambe. Kungakhathalekile ukuthi kusemini loba kusebusuku, sonke isikhathi lapho iyezi lisuka babesuka bahambe.
Nthawi zina mtambo unkakhala kuyambira madzulo mpaka mmawa ndipo unkachoka mmawa mwake, ankasamuka. Kaya ndi masana kapena usiku, pamene mtambo wachoka, ankasamuka.
22 Loba iyezi lalisima phezu kwethabanikeli okwensuku ezimbili, kumbe okwenyanga eyodwa loba okomnyaka, abako-Israyeli babehlala khonapho ezihonqweni bangasuki; kodwa nxa lingasuka, labo babesuka.
Ngakhale mtambo ukhale pa chihema masiku awiri kapena mwezi kapena chaka, Aisraeli ankakhalabe pa msasa osachoka. Koma ukachoka, ankasamuka.
23 Ngokulaya kukaThixo babehlala ezihonqweni, langokulaya kwakhe njalo babesuka bahambe. Balalela okwakutshiwo nguThixo ngokulaya kwakhe ngoMosi.
Molamulidwa ndi Yehova ankamanga misasa yawo ndipo ankasamukanso Yehova akawalamula. Ankamvera lamulo la Yehova kudzera mwa Mose.
