ʻOpataia 1
1 Ko e meʻa hā mai kia ʻOpataia. ʻOku pehē ʻae ʻEiki ko e ʻOtua ki ʻItomi; Kuo tau fanongo ki ha ongoongo meia Sihova, pea kuo ʻalu ha tangata talafekau ki he kakai hiteni, “Mou tuʻu, pea te tau tuʻu hake kiate ia ke tau.
Masomphenya a Obadiya. Ambuye Yehova akunena kwa Edomu kuti, Tamva uthenga wochokera kwa Yehova: Nthumwi yatumidwa kupita kwa anthu a mitundu kukanena kuti, “Konzekani, tiyeni tikachite nkhondo ndi Edomu.”
2 Vakai, kuo u fakasiʻisiʻi koe ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe hiteni: ʻoku lahi ho manukiʻi.
“Taona, ndidzakuchepetsani pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina; udzanyozedwa kwambiri.
3 Kuo kākaaʻi koe ʻe he laukau ʻa ho loto, ʻa koe ʻoku nofo ʻi he ngaahi ʻanaʻi maka, pea ʻoku māʻolunga ho nofoʻanga; ʻaia ʻoku pehē ʻi hono loto, ‘Ko hai ʻe fakahifo au ki lalo ki he kelekele?’”
Kudzikuza kwa mtima wako kwakusocheretsa, iwe amene umakhala mʼmapanga a mʼmatanthwe ndipo umamanga nyumba zako pa mapiri ataliatali, iwe amene umanena mu mtima mwako kuti, ‘Ndani anganditsitse pansi?’
4 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “Neongo ʻoku ke hakeakiʻi koe ʻo hangē ko e ʻikale, pea ʻoku ke fokotuʻu ho pununga ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi fetuʻu, ka te u fakahifo koe mei ai.
Koma ngakhale umawuluka ngati chiwombankhanga ndi kumanga chisa chako pakati pa nyenyezi, ndidzakutsitsa pansi kuchokera kumeneko,” akutero Yehova.
5 He ka ne haʻu kiate koe ʻae kau kaihaʻa, ʻae kau kaihaʻa ʻi he pō, (ʻoiauē ho motuhi!) ʻIkai te nau kaihaʻasi ke ʻoua ke lahi ʻenau meʻa? Ka ne haʻu kiate koe ʻae kau toli kālepi, ʻikai kuo nau fakatoe ha ngaahi kālepi?
“Anthu akuba akanabwera kwa iwe, kapena anthu olanda zinthu akanafika usiku, aa, tsoka lanji limene likukudikira iwe! Kodi akanangotengako zimene akuzifuna zokha? Ngati anthu othyola mphesa akanafika, kodi akanakusiyiraniko mphesa pangʼono pokha?
6 ʻOiauē hono vakili ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ʻa ʻIsoa! Hono hakule ʻo ʻene ngaahi meʻa fufū!
Koma Esau adzalandidwa zinthu zonse, chuma chake chobisika chidzabedwa!
7 Ko e kau tangata kotoa pē naʻe kau fakataha mo koe, kuo nau ʻomi koe ʻo aʻu ki he mata fonua, kuo kākaaʻi koe ʻe he kau tangata naʻe melino mo koe, pea kuo ikuʻi koe; ʻakinautolu naʻe kai ho mā kuo nau ʻai ʻae tauhele ʻi lalo ʻiate koe: ʻoku ʻikai siʻi ha poto ʻiate ia.”
Anthu onse ogwirizana nawo adzakupirikitsira kumalire; abwenzi ako adzakunyenga ndi kukugonjetsa; amene amadya chakudya chako adzakutchera msampha, koma iwe sudzazindikira zimenezi.”
8 ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻIkai te u fakaʻauha ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae kau tangata poto mei ʻItomi, pea mo e ʻilo mei he moʻunga ʻo ʻIsoa?
Yehova akunena kuti, “Tsiku limenelo, kodi sindidzawononga anthu onse anzeru a ku Edomu, anthu odziwa zinthu mʼmapiri a Esau?
9 Pea ʻe ilifia hoʻo kau tangata mālohi, ʻe Timani, koeʻuhi ke ʻauha ʻi he tāmate ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he moʻunga ʻo ʻIsoa.
Ankhondo ako, iwe Temani, adzachita mantha, ndipo aliyense amene ali mʼphiri la Esau adzaphedwa pa nkhondo.
10 Koeʻuhi ko hoʻo fai fakamālohi ki ho tokoua ko Sēkope, ʻe ʻufiʻufi ʻaki koe ʻae mā, pea te ke ʻauha ʻo lauikuonga.
Chifukwa cha nkhanza zimene unachitira mʼbale wako Yakobo, udzakhala wamanyazi; adzakuwononga mpaka muyaya.
11 ʻI he ʻaho ko ia naʻa ke tutuʻu mo e faʻahi ʻe taha, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻe ʻave pōpula ʻe he kakai muli ʻa ʻene ngaahi kongakau, pea naʻe hū ʻae kau muli ki hono ngaahi matapā, pea nau talotalo ki Selūsalema, ko koe naʻa ke hangē ko e tokotaha ʻokinautolu.
Pamene adani ankamulanda chuma chake pamene alendo analowa pa zipata zake ndi kuchita maere pa Yerusalemu, pa tsikulo iwe unali ngati mmodzi wa iwo.
12 Ka naʻe ʻikai totonu hoʻo sio ki he ʻaho ʻo ho tokoua, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia naʻa ne hoko ko e muli; pea naʻe ʻikai totonu hoʻo vikiviki ki he fānau ʻa Siuta ʻi he ʻaho ʻo honau fakaʻauha; pea naʻe ʻikai totonu hoʻo lea fielahi ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻenau mamahi.
Iwe sunayenera kunyoza mʼbale wako pa nthawi ya tsoka lake, kapena kunyogodola Ayuda chifukwa cha chiwonongeko chawo, kapena kuwaseka pa nthawi ya mavuto awo.
13 Naʻe ʻikai totonu hoʻo hū ʻi he matapā ʻo hoku kakai, ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻenau tuʻutāmaki; ʻio, naʻe ʻikai totonu hoʻo sio ki heʻenau mamahi ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻenau tuʻutāmaki, pe ala ki heʻenau koloa ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻenau tuʻutāmaki;
Iwe sunayenera kudutsa pa zipata za anthu anga pa nthawi ya masautso awo, kapena kuwanyogodola pa tsiku la tsoka lawo, kapena kulanda chuma chawo pa nthawi ya masautso awo.
14 Pea naʻe ʻikai totonu hoʻo tutuʻu ʻi he mangaʻi hala, ke motuhi ʻakinautolu ʻi ai naʻe hao; pea naʻe ʻikai totonu hoʻo tukuange ʻakinautolu ʻi ai, naʻe toe ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe mamahi.
Sunayenera kudikirira pamphambano ya misewu kuti uphe Ayuda othawa, kapena kuwapereka kwa adani awo Ayuda opulumuka pa nthawi ya mavuto awo.”
15 He ʻoku ofi ʻae ʻaho ʻo Sihova ki he kakai hiteni; ʻo hangē ko ia kuo ke fai ʻe fai pehē kiate koe: ʻe foki mai hoʻo totongi ki ho ʻulu ʻoʻou.
“Tsiku la Yehova layandikira limene adzaweruza mitundu yonse ya anthu. Adzakuchitira zomwe unawachitira ena; zochita zako zidzakubwerera wekha.
16 Hangē kuo mou inu ʻi hoku moʻunga tapu, ʻe pehē ʻae inu maʻuaipē ʻe he hiteni kotoa pē, ʻio, te nau inu mo folo hifo, pea te nau hoko ʻo hangē ko e kakai naʻe ʻikai.
Iwe unamwa pa phiri langa loyera, koteronso mitundu ina yonse idzamwa kosalekeza; iwo adzamwa ndi kudzandira ndipo adzayiwalika pa mbiri ya dziko lapansi.
17 Ka ʻe ʻi ai ʻae fakahaofi ʻi he moʻunga ko Saione, pea mo e māʻoniʻoni; pea ʻe maʻu ʻe he fale ʻo Sēkope ʻa honau tofiʻa.
Koma pa Phiri la Ziyoni padzakhala chipulumutso; phirilo lidzakhala lopatulika, ndipo nyumba ya Yakobo idzalandira cholowa chake.
18 Pea ʻe hoko ʻae fale ʻo Sēkope ko e afi, pea mo e fale ʻo Siosefa ko e ulo afi, pea ko e fale ʻo ʻIsoa ko e veve, pea te nau vela ʻiate kinautolu, mo fakaʻauha kinautolu; pea ʻe ʻikai toe ha niʻihi ʻi he fale ʻo ʻIsoa,” he kuo folofola pehē ʻe Sihova.
Nyumba ya Yakobo idzasanduka moto ndipo nyumba ya Yosefe idzasanduka lawi la moto; nyumba ya Esau idzasanduka chiputu, ndipo adzayitenthe pa moto ndi kuyipsereza. Sipadzakhala anthu opulumuka kuchokera mʼnyumba ya Esau.” Yehova wayankhula.
19 Pea ʻe maʻu ʻekinautolu ʻoe potu tonga ʻae moʻunga ʻo ʻIsoa; pea ko kinautolu ʻoe toafa, ʻae kakai Filisitia, pea te nau maʻu ʻae ngaahi ngoue ʻo ʻIfalemi, mo e ngaahi ngoue ʻo Samēlia: pea ʻe maʻu ʻe Penisimani ʻa Kiliati.
Anthu ochokera ku Negevi adzakhala ku mapiri a Esau, ndipo anthu ochokera mʼmbali mwa mapiri adzatenga dziko la Afilisti. Adzakhala mʼminda ya Efereimu ndi Samariya, ndipo Benjamini adzatenga Giliyadi.
20 Pea ʻe maʻu ʻe he kau pōpula ʻi he kau tau ni ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, [ʻae fonua ]ʻoe kakai Kēnani ʻo aʻu ki Salefati; pea ʻe maʻu ʻe he kau pōpula ʻo Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Sefalati, ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻoe potu tonga.
Aisraeli amene ali ku ukapolo adzalandira dziko la Kanaani mpaka ku Zarefati; a ku Yerusalemu amene ali ku ukapolo ku Sefaradi adzalandira mizinda ya ku Negevi.
21 Pea ʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kau fakamoʻui ki he moʻunga ko Saione, ke fakamaau ʻae moʻunga ʻo ʻIsoa; pea ʻe hoko ia ko e puleʻanga ʻo Sihova.
Opulumukawo adzapita ku Phiri la Ziyoni ndipo adzalamulira mapiri a Esau. Koma ufumuwo udzakhala wa Yehova.
