4 ¹Pamene Sanibalati anamva kuti tikumanganso khoma, anakwiya kwambiri nanyazimira ndi ukali, nanyoza Ayuda. ²Anati pamaso pa abale ake ndi ankhondo a Samariya, “Ayuda ofooka awa akuchita chiyani? Kodi adzadzimangira khoma? Kodi adzapereka nsembe? Kodi adzatsiriza tsiku limodzi? Kodi angaukitse miyala kuchoka m’milu ya nyanyalala, iyo yopsereza motere?”

³Tobiya Mwamoni anali pafupi naye, nati, “Khoma la miyala limene akumangalo, ngakhale nkhandwe itakwera pamenepo, idzaligwetsa!”

⁴Timvereni, Atate wathu, pakuti tanyozedwa. Bwezerani zonyoza zawo pa mitu yawo, ndipo muwapereke kukhala chofunkha ku dziko la ukapolo. ⁵Musaleke kuona kulakwa kwawo, ndipo musalole kuti machimo awo afafanizidwe pamaso panu, pakuti ananyoza omanga pamaso pawo.

⁶Choncho tinamanga khoma mpaka lonse linaphatikizana mpaka pakati pa msinkhu wake, pakuti anthu anagwira ntchito ndi mtima wawo wonse.

⁷Koma pamene Sanibalati, Tobiya, Aarabu, Aamoni, ndi Aasidodi anamva kuti kukonzanso kwa makoma a Yerusalemu kunkapita patsogolo ndipo mipata inkayamba kutseka, anadzala ndi mkwiyo. ⁸Onse anapangana pamodzi kuti adze kudzamenyana ndi Yerusalemu ndi kuchititsa chisokonezo.

⁹Koma tinapemphera kwa Atate wathu, ndipo tinaika alonda owateteza usana ndi usiku.

¹⁰Pa nthawi imeneyo anthu a Yuda anati, “Antchito akutha mphamvu, ndipo zinyalala zilipo zambiri kotero kuti sitingathe kumanganso khoma.” ¹¹Ndipo adani athu anati, “Asanadziwe kapena kutiona, tidzakhala pakati pawotu; tidzawapha ndi kuthetsa ntchitoyo.”

¹²Ndipo Ayuda amene amakhala pafupi nawo anadza natiuza kokwana kakhumi, nati, “Kulikonse kumene mutembenukire, adzabwera kudzalimbana nafe.”

¹³Choncho ndinaika anthu kumbuyo kwa malo otsika a khoma, m’malo opanda chotchinga, ndinawaika monga mwa mabanja awo ali ndi malupanga awo, mikondo, ndi mauta. ¹⁴Nditayang’ana zinthuzo, ndinaimirira, ndipo ndinati kwa akuluakulu, nduna, ndi anthu ena onse, “Musawaope iwo. Kumbukirani Atate Wolamulira, wamkulu ndi woopsa, ndipo menyerani abale anu, ana anu aamuna ndi aakazi, akazi anu ndi nyumba zanu.”

¹⁵Pamene adani athu anamva kuti tinadziwa za chiwembu chawo ndi kuti Atate wathu anachilepheretsa, tonse tinabwerera ku khoma, aliyense ku ntchito yake. ¹⁶Kuyambira tsiku limenelo, theka la anthu anga linkagwira ntchito pamene theka linalo linkanyamula mikondo, zishango, mauta, ndi zovala zankhondo. Atsogoleri anadziika okha kumbuyo kwa anthu onse a Yuda, ¹⁷amene anali kumanga khoma. Iwo amene ananyamula zomangira anagwira ntchito yawo ndi dzanja limodzi ndipo anagwira chida ndi dzanja linalo, ¹⁸ndipo aliyense wa omanga anamangirira lupanga lake m’chiuno mwake pamene ankagwira ntchito. Koma munthu amene ankaliza lipenga anakhala pafupi nane. ¹⁹Ndipo ndinati kwa akuluakulu, nduna, ndi anthu ena onse, “Ntchitoyi ndi yaikulu ndipo yafalikira, ndipo ife tasiyanirana wina ndi mnzake pa khoma. ²⁰Kulikonse kumene mudzamva kulira kwa lipenga, sonkhanani kwa ife kumeneko. Atate wathu adzatimenyera nkhondo!”

²¹Choncho tinapitiriza kugwira ntchito, theka la anthu litagwira mikondo, kuyambira m’bandakucha mpaka nyenyezi zitatuluka. ²²Pa nthawi imeneyo ndinauzanso anthu kuti, “Aliyense ndi wothandiza wake akhale mkati mwa Yerusalemu usiku, kuti akhale alonda usiku ndi antchito usana.” ²³Choncho ine, kapena abale anga, kapena anthu anga, kapena alonda amene ankanditsatira, sitinavule zovala zathu; aliyense anali ndi chida chake m’dzanja, ngakhale pamene ankapita kukatunga madzi.
