1 “Tarirai, ndichatuma nhume yangu, uyo achagadzira nzira pamberi pangu. Ipapo Ishe wamunotsvaka, achasvika pakarepo patemberi yake; mutumwa wesungano, wamunoshuva, achauya,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Ine ndidzatuma mthenga wanga amene adzakonza njira pamaso panga. Kenaka mwadzidzidzi Ambuye amene mukumufunafuna adzafika ku Nyumba yake. Mthenga wapangano amene mukumuyembekezera adzabwera.”
2 Asi ndiani angatsunga pazuva rokuuya kwake? Ndiani angamira paanoonekwa? Nokuti achava somoto womunatsi kana sipo yomusuki.
Koma ndani adzatha kupirira pa tsiku la kubwera kwake? Ndani adzatha kuyima pamene Iye wafika? Pakuti adzakhala ngati moto wa mmisiri wa pa ngʼanjo, kapenanso ngati sopo wa munthu wochapa.
3 Iye achagara somunatsi nomuchenesi wesirivha; achachenesa vaRevhi uye achavanatsa segoridhe nesirivha. Ipapo Jehovha achava navanhu vachamuvigira zvipiriso mukururama,
Iye adzachita kukhalira pansi ngati mmisiri woyenga ndi woyeretsa siliva. Iye adzayeretsa Alevi ndi kuwayenga ngati golide ndi siliva. Pamenepo Yehova adzakhala ndi anthu amene azidzabweretsa zopereka mwachilungamo,
4 uye zvipiriso zveJudha neJerusarema zvichagamuchirwa naJehovha, sapamazuva akapfuura, sapamakore akare.
ndipo Yehova adzalandira zopereka za Yuda ndi Yerusalemu, ngati masiku akale, masiku amakedzana.
5 “Saka ndichaswedera kwamuri kuzotonga. Ndichakurumidza kupupura ndichipikisa varoyi, mhombwe uye navanopika nhema, navaya vanobiridzira vashandi migove yavo, vanodzvinyirira chirikadzi nenherera uye vasingaruramisiri vatorwa, uye vasingandityi,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Tsono ndidzakuyandikirani kuti ndikuweruzeni. Mosataya nthawi ndidzanena mawu otsutsa mfiti, achigololo, a umboni wonama, amene salipira bwino antchito awo, amene amazunza akazi ndi ana amasiye, amene saweruza alendo mwachilungamo, komanso amene sandiopa Ine.”
6 “Ini Jehovha handishanduki. Saka imi, rudzi rwaJakobho, hamuna kuparadzwa.
“Ine ndine Yehova, ndipo sindisintha. Choncho inu zidzukulu za Yakobo, simunawonongedwe.
7 Kubva pamazuva amadzitateguru enyu makatsauka pamitemo yangu uye hamuna kuichengeta. Dzokerai kwandiri, uye neni ndichadzokera kwamuri,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose. “Asi munobvunza muchiti, ‘Tichadzoka pazvinhu zvipiko?’
Kuyambira nthawi ya makolo anu mwakhala mukuphwanya malamulo anga ndipo simunawatsatire. Bwererani kwa Ine, ndipo Ine ndidzabwerera kwa inu,” akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse. “Koma inu mukufunsa kuti, ‘Tibwerere motani kwa Yehova?’
8 “Ko, munhu angabire Mwari here? Kunyange zvakadaro munondibira. “Asi munobvunza muchiti, ‘Tinokubirai pane zvipi?’ “Pazvegumi nezvipiriso.
“Kodi munthu angathe kuba za Mulungu? Komatu inu mumandibera. “Koma inu mukufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi timakuberani motani?’ “Pa zakhumi ndi pa zopereka.
9 Makatukwa, rudzi rwenyu rwose, nokuti muri kundibira.
Mtundu wanu wonse ndinu otembereredwa, chifukwa mukundibera.
10 Uyai nezvegumi zvose kudura, kuti mumba mangu mugova nezvokudya. Ndiedzei muna izvozvi,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, “muone kana ndisingakuzarurirei mawindo okudenga, uye ndigokudururirai maropafadzo mazhinji zvokuti muchashayiwa pokuaisa.
Bweretsani chakhumi chathunthu ku nyumba yosungira, kuti mukhale chakudya mʼnyumba mwanga.” Akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, “Tandiyesani, ndipo muone ngati sindidzatsekula zipata zakumwamba, ndi kukugwetserani madalitso ochuluka amene mudzasowe malo owayikamo.
11 Ndichadzivisa udyi pakuparadza zvirimwa zvenyu, uye mizambiringa yeminda yenyu haingadonhedzi zvibereko zvayo,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
Ndidzaletsa tizirombo kuti tisawononge mbewu zanu, ndipo mpesa wa mʼminda mwanu zipatso zake sizidzayoyoka,” akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
12 “Ipapo ndudzi dzose dzichati makaropafadzwa, nokuti nyika yenyu ichava inofadza,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose.
“Motero anthu amitundu yonse adzakutchulani odala, pakuti dziko lanu lidzakhala lokondweretsa,” akutero Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
13 Jehovha anoti, “Makataura zvinhu zvikukutu pamusoro pangu.” “Kunyange zvakadaro munoti, ‘Takataureiko pamusoro penyu?’
Yehova akuti, “Mwayankhula mawu owawa onena za Ine. “Komabe inu mukufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi tanena chiyani chotsutsana nanu?’
14 “Imi makati, ‘Hazvina maturo kushumira Mwari. Takawaneiko nokuita zvaakarayira uye zvatakafamba savachemi pamberi paJehovha Wamasimba Ose?
“Mwanena kuti, ‘Kutumikira Mulungu nʼkosapindulitsa. Kodi timapindulanji pochita zofuna zake, ndi kumayenda ngati anamfedwa pamaso pa Yehova Wamphamvuzonse?
15 Asi zvino tinoti vanozvikudza vakaropafadzwa. Zvirokwazvo vaiti vezvakaipa vanobudirira uye naivo vaya vanoedza Mwari vanopunyuka.’”
Koma tsono ife timati anthu odzikuza ndiye odalitsika. Kunena zoona anthu oyipa ndiye amapeza bwino, ngakhale amene amanyoza Mulungu amapulumuka.’”
16 Ipapo vaya vaitya Jehovha vakataurirana, uye Jehovha akateerera akanzwa. Bhuku rechirangaridzo rakanyorwa pamberi pake pamusoro pavanotya Jehovha uye nevanoremekedza zita rake.
Ndipo woopa Yehova anayamba kukambirana, ndipo Yehova anamvetsera. Buku la chikumbutso linalembedwa pamaso pake, lonena za amene amaopa Yehova ndi kulemekeza dzina lake.
17 “Vachava vangu,” ndizvo zvinotaura Jehovha Wamasimba Ose, “pazuva randichaunganidza pfuma yangu inokosha. Ndichavanzwira tsitsi, somunhu anonzwira tsitsi mwanakomana wake anomushandira.
Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti, “Anthu amenewo adzakhala anga, tsiku limene Ine ndidzachita izi, adzakhala angaanga. Ndidzawaleka osawalanga monga mmene munthu amachitira chifundo mwana wake amene amamutumikira.
18 Uye muchaonazve musiyano pakati pavakarurama navakaipa, pakati pavaya vanoshumira Mwari navaya vasingamushumiri.
Pamenepo mudzaonanso kusiyana pakati pa anthu olungama ndi oyipa, pakati pa amene amatumikira Mulungu ndi amene satumikira Mulungu.”
