Kapitulu 13.

Munthu wa Baba wathu abuluka ku Juda mbaenda ku Beteli mwa fala ya Baba wathu, mu ndzidzi ukhaima Jeroboamu pa guwa toera kupisa ubani.

Mwa fala ya Baba wathu akhuwa mbatsutsa guwa, mbalonga: “Guwa, guwa, Baba wathu asalonga tenepa: Nyumba ya Dhavidhi inadzabala mwana anacemerwa Djosiya. Pa iwe iye anadzapereka ntsembe anyantsembe a mbuto zakudzulu ale anapisa ubani pa iwe, na mafupa a anthu anadzapiswa pa iwe.”

Pa ntsiku ineyi apereka cidzindikiro, mbalonga: “Ici ndi cidzindikiro cidalonga Baba wathu: guwa inadzapaswa, na dota yace inadzatayika.”

Mambo Jeroboamu pidabva iye munthu wa Baba wathu mbakhuwa kutsutsa guwa ku Beteli, athambalaza nkono wace buluka pa guwa, mbalonga: “Mumphateni!” Mbwenye nkono udathambalaza iye kumutsutsa waumala, iye nkhabe kukwanisa kuuzwezera kuna iye ekha. Guwa yapaswa, dota yace yatayika—cidzindikiro cidapereka munthu wa Baba wathu mwa fala ya Baba wathu. Mambo apanga munthu wa Baba wathu, mbalonga: “Phembani kukoma ntima kwa Mulungu wanu; ndiphembereni, toera nkono wanga ubwezerwe.” Munthu wa Baba wathu aphemba Baba wathu, na nkono wa mambo ubwezerwa mbukhala ninga kale.

Mambo apanga munthu wa Baba wathu, mbalonga: “Ndzani kunyumba, mudye pabodzi na ine, toera ndikupaseni muoni.”

Munthu wa Baba wathu atawira mambo, mbalonga: “Maseze mungandipasa khundu ibodzi ya nyumba yanu, ine nkhabe kuenda na imwe, nkhabe kudya nkate, nkhabe kumwa madzi pano.

Thangwi fala ya Baba wathu yandipanga tenepa: ‘Leka kudya nkate, leka kumwa madzi, leka kubwerera munjira idabwera iwe.’”

Na tenepo aenda na njira inango, mbakhonda kubwerera na njira idabwera iye ku Beteli.

Mu Beteli mukhakhala mprofeta m'bodzi wankhalamba. Ana ace abwera mbampanga pinthu pyonsene pidacita munthu wa Baba wathu pa ntsiku ineyi mu Beteli. Apanga pontho baba wawo mafala adalonga iye kuna mambo.

Baba wawo abvundza: “Aenda na njira ipi?” Ana ace ampangiza njira idatowera munthu wa Baba wathu wa ku Juda. Apanga ana ace, mbalonga: “Ndikonzeni buru.” Iwo ankonzera buru, iye mbakwira. Iye atowera munthu wa Baba wathu, mban'gumana ali nakhala pantsi pa muti, mbambvundza: “Ndimwe munthu wa Baba wathu adabuluka ku Juda?” Iye atawira: “Inde, ndine.”

Penepo ampanga: “Ndzani kunyumba pabodzi na ine, mudye nkate.”

Mbwenye iye atawira: “Nkhabe kukwanisa kubwerera na imwe peno kupita na imwe, nkhabe kudya nkate peno kumwa madzi pabodzi na imwe pano. Thangwi Baba wathu andipanga mwa fala yace: ‘Leka kudya nkate, leka kumwa madzi penepo, nee kubwerera na njira idabwera iwe.’”

Iye atawira: “Ine ndiri mprofeta-mbo ninga imwe; anju andipanga mwa fala ya Mulungu, mbalonga: ‘Mbwezere kunyumba kwako toera adye nkate na kumwa madzi.’” Mbwenye iye akhamunamiza.

Na tenepo munthu wa Baba wathu abwerera pabodzi na iye, mbadya nkate m'nyumba mwace, mbamwa madzi. Mu ndzidzi ukhakhala iwo pa meza, fala ya Baba wathu yabwera kuna mprofeta adam'bwezera.

Iye akhuwira munthu wa Baba wathu wa ku Juda, mbalonga: “Baba wathu asalonga tenepa: Thangwi imwe mwatsutsa fala yace, mbamukhonda kubvera ntemo udakupasani Baba wanu, mbwenye mwabwerera, mwadya nkate, mwamwa madzi pa mbuto idakupangani iye kuti: ‘Leka kudya nkate, leka kumwa madzi’—manungo anu nkhabe kufika ku nthumbi ya ambuya anu.”

Pakumala munthu wa Baba wathu kudya na kumwa, mprofeta wankhalamba ankonzera buru, kuna munthu wa Baba wathu adam'bwezera iye. Mu ndzidzi ukhaenda iye munjira, nkhalamu yan'gumana panjira, mbaimpha. Manungo ace akhali adagwa panjira, buru mbiima pa khundu pace, na nkhalamu mbiima pa khundu pa manungo. Anthu akhapita panjira aona manungo adagwa panjira, na nkhalamu mbiima pa khundu pace, mbabwera mbapanga mu nzinda ukhakhala mprofeta wankhalamba. Pidabva iye penepi, mprofeta adam'bweza panjira alonga: “Uyu ndi munthu wa Baba wathu adatsutsa fala ya Baba wathu; na tenepo iye ampereka kuna nkhalamu, idamuswa mbaimpha, ninga mudampanga iye.” Penepo apanga ana ace, mbalonga: “Ndikonzeni buru.” Iwo ankonza. Iye aenda mban'gumana manungo adagwa panjira, buru na nkhalamu mbiima pa khundu pace; nkhalamu ikhadadya manungo tayu, nee kukhandanya buru. Mprofeta akweza manungo a munthu wa Baba wathu, mbaaikha pa buru, mbaabwezera, mbabwera ku nzinda toera kulira na kun'kwirira. Iye aikha manungo mu nthumbi yace, mbamulira, mbalonga: “Mayo we, m'bale wanga!”

Pakumala kun'kwirira, apanga ana ace, mbalonga: “Ndingafa, mundikwirireni mu nthumbi mukwiririwa munthu wa Baba wathu; ikhani mafupa anga pa khundu pa mafupa ace. Thangwi mphangwa idakhuwa iye mwa fala ya Baba wathu kutsutsa guwa ya ku Beteli, na nyumba zonsene zakulambira za mbuto zakudzulu za mu mizinda ya Samariya, inadzakwanirisika mwandimomwene.”

Pakumala penepi, Jeroboamu nkhabe kusiya njira yace yakuipa; apanga pontho anyantsembe a mbuto zakudzulu kubuluka kuna anthu onsene—ule akhafuna, iye akhan'khazikisa, mbakhala nyantsembe wa mbuto zakudzulu. Penepi pyakhala madawo kuna nyumba ya Jeroboamu, kuigwanda, na kuifudza kubuluka pa nkhope ya dziko.
