Kenako mtima wa nkhaniyo ukusintha kotheratu: Atate wathu akutsanulira mzimu wa chisomo, ndipo akuyang'ana kwa Yesu, amene anamubaya, nalira ngati kulirira mwana yekhayo.
12 1Uthenga wolemetsa: mau a Atate wathu onena za Israeli—chinenero cha Atate wathu, amene anatambasula kumwamba, nakhazikitsa dziko lapansi, naumba mzimu wa munthu m'kati mwake:
2“Onani, Ine ndikusandutsa Yerusalemu kukhala chikho chodzungulitsa anthu onse ozungulira; ndipo Yuda nayenso adzakhala pa kuzinga Yerusalemu. 3Tsiku limenelo ndidzasandutsa Yerusalemu kukhala mwala wolemera kwa anthu a mitundu yonse; onse amene adzaunyamula adzavulazidwa kwambiri, pamene mitundu yonse ya dziko lapansi idzasonkhana kudzamenyana naye.’” 4Tsiku limenelo, ati Atate wathu, ndidzakantha kavalo aliyense ndi mantha, ndi wokwerapo wake ndi misala. Ndidzayang'anira nyumba ya Yuda, koma ndidzakantha kavalo aliyense wa anthu a mitundu ndi khungu. 5Pamenepo atsogoleri a Yuda adzanena mu mitima yawo, ‘Anthu a ku Yerusalemu ndi amphamvu kudzera mwa Atate wawo, Atate wa makamu a kumwamba.’
6“Tsiku limenelo ndidzasandutsa atsogoleri a Yuda kukhala mbiya yamoto pakati pa nkhuni, sakali loyaka pakati pa mitolo; adzawononga anthu onse ozungulira kudzanja lamanja ndi lamanzere, pamene Yerusalemu idzakhala motetezeka pa malo pake.
7“Atate wathu adzapulumutsa matenti a Yuda poyamba, kuti nyumba ya Davide ndi anthu a ku Yerusalemu asalemekezedwe koposa Yuda. 8Tsiku limenelo Atate wathu adzateteza okhala mu Yerusalemu, kotero kuti wofooka koposa pakati pawo adzakhala wamphamvu ngati mfumu Davide. Ndipo mbadwa zachifumu zidzakhala ngati Atate wathu, ngati mthenga wa Atate wathu amene amayenda patsogolo pa anthu a ku Yerusalemu. 9‘Ndipo tsiku limenelo ndidzafunafuna kuwononga mitundu yonse ya anthu imene idzabwera kudzamenyana ndi Yerusalemu.
