4 ¹Sanibalati pidabva iye kuti tikhamanga pontho mpanda, aipirwa kakamwe mbadzala na ukali, mbaseka Ayuda. ²Patsogolo pa abale ace na anyankhondo a ku Samariya iye alonga kuti: “Ayuda awa akufewa akucitanji? Kodi anadzamangira okhene mpanda? Kodi anadzapereka ntsembe? Kodi anadzamalisa mu ntsiku ibodzi basi? Kodi anakwanisa kupasa umaso pontho miyala kubuluka mu milu ya marabi, ngakhala yapiswa na moto?”

³Tobiya Mwamoni akhali pabalipa pace, mbalonga kuti: “Mpanda wa miyala unowu unamanga iwo, ngakhala nkhandwe ikwire padzulu pace, inaugwesa!”

⁴Tibveserani, Baba wathu, thangwi ife tanyozeka. Bwezerani kunyoza kwawo pa misolo yawo ene, mbamuaperekani ninga pyakubedwa ku dziko ya ubitcha. ⁵Lekani kuphimbira kudawa kwawo, pontho lekani kuti madawo awo afudzwe pamaso panu, thangwi iwo aponya mafala akunyoza pamaso pa anyakumanga.

⁶Na tenepo tamanga pontho mpanda mpaka onsene ulumikizwa pabodzi, mbufika hafu ya kutalika kwace, thangwi mbumba yacita basa na ntima onsene.

⁷Mbwenye Sanibalati, Tobiya, Aarabi, Aamoni na anthu a ku Asidodi pidabva iwo kuti kusasanyira mipanda ya Yerusalemi kukhaenda patsogolo, na maphovero akhatoma kufungwa, iwo adzala na ukali. ⁸Iwo onsene abverana pabodzi toera kubwera kudzamenyana na Yerusalemi, na kuubweresera nyongonyongo.

⁹Mbwenye ife taphembera kuna Baba wathu, mbatiikha alindi toera kutitsidzikiza kwa iwo, masiku na masikati.

¹⁰Na tenepo anthu a ku Yuda alonga kuti: “Anyabasa akutepa mphambvu zawo, pontho marabi ndi mazinji kakamwe, natenepa nkhabe kwanisa kumanga pontho mpanda.” ¹¹Pontho anyamalwa athu alonga kuti: “Mbadzati kudziwa peno kutiona iwo, tinadzakhala pakati pawo; tinadzaapha mbatimalisa basa.”

¹²Na tenepo Ayuda ale akhakhala cifupi na iwo abwera mbatipanga kakhumi, mbalonga kuti: “Konsene kunabwerera imwe, iwo anadzabwera kudzatimenyana.”

¹³Na tenepo ndaikha anthu nduli mwa mbuto zakutsika za mpanda, pa mbuto zakweca, mbandiaikha mwa mabanja awo na misupada yawo, mikondo yawo, na mauta awo. ¹⁴Pakumala kuona pyonsene, ndalimira mbandilonga kuna akulu, atsogoleri, na mbumba inango yonsene, mbalonga kuti: “Lekani kuagopa. Kumbukani Baba Mambo, wankulu na wakugopswa, mbamumenyera abale anu, anananu amuna na akazi, akazanu na nyumba zanu.”

¹⁵Anyamalwa athu pidabva iwo kuti ife tadziwa mabverano awo, na kuti Baba wathu akhapingiza mabverano anewa, ife tonsene tabwerera ku mpanda, m'bodzi na m'bodzi ku basa yace. ¹⁶Kubulukira ntsiku ineyi, hafu ya anyabasa anga akhacita basa, hafu inango mbidzakhala na mikondo, zishango, mauta, na nguwo za nkhondo. Atsogoleri aikha okhene nduli mwa anthu onsene a ku Yuda, ¹⁷ale akhamanga mpanda. Ale akhathukula pyakumangira acita basa yawo na nkono ubodzi, mbaphata cida ca nkhondo na nkono unango, ¹⁸pontho nyakumanga m'bodzi na m'bodzi akhamanga supada yace m'ciwuno mwace mukhacita iye basa. Mbwenye mamuna ule akhalira nyanga akhala pabalipa panga. ¹⁹Na tenepo ndapanga akulu, atsogoleri, na mbumba inango yonsene, mbalonga kuti: “Basa ndi ikulu kakamwe mbyamwazika, pontho ife tagawanika unango na ndzace m'mphepete mwa mpanda. ²⁰Konsene kunabva imwe kulira kwa nyanga, bwerani kuna ife penepo. Baba wathu anadzatimenyera!”

²¹Na tenepo tapitiriza kucita basa, hafu ya amuna mbakhaphata mikondo, kubulukira macibese mpaka pakuoneka nyenyezi. ²²Pa n'dzidzi unowu ndapangambo mbumba, mbalonga kuti: “Munthu m'bodzi na m'bodzi pabodzi na nyakumuphedza wace mbakhale n'kati mwa Yerusalemi namasiku, toera akhale alindi namasiku, mbakhala anyabasa masikati.” ²³Na tenepo ife, ine, abale anga, anyabasa anga, peno alindi akhanditowera, nee m'bodzi wa ife adabvula nguwo zace; m'bodzi na m'bodzi akhaphata cida cace ca nkhondo, ngakhala mukhaenda iye kakagamula madzi.
