[2] Komabe inu mumadzitcha nzika za mzinda wopatulika ndipo mumadalira Mulungu wa Israeli, amene dzina lake ndi Yehova Wamphamvuzonse: [3] Zimene zinachitika poyamba ndinalosera kalekale, zinatuluka mʼkamwa mwanga ndipo ndinazilengeza; tsono mwadzidzidzi ndinachitapo kanthu ndipo zinachitikadi. [4] Pakuti Ine ndinadziwa kuti iwe ndiwe nkhutukumve wa nkhongo gwaa, wa mutu wowuma. [5] Ine ndinakuwuziratu zinthu izi kalekale lomwe; zisanachitike ndinazilengezeratu kwa iwe kuti unganene kuti, ‘Fano langa ndilo lachita zimenezi, kapena kuti fano langa losema ndi kamulungu kanga kachitsulo ndiwo analamula kuti zimenezi zichitike.’ [6] Inu munamva zinthu zimenezi. Kodi inu simungazivomereze? “Kuyambira tsopano mpaka mʼtsogolo ndidzakuwuzani zinthu zatsopano zinthu zobisika zimene simunazidziwe konse. [7] Zinthu zimenezi zikulengedwa tsopano lino, osati kalekale; munali musanazimve mpaka lero lino. Choncho inu simunganene kuti, ‘Zimenezi ndiye ayi, ndinazidziwa kale.’ [8] Inu simunazimvepo kapena kuzidziwa; makutu anu sanali otsekuka. Tsono Ine ndinadziwa bwino kuti ndinu anthu achiwembu ndi kuti chiyambire ubwana wanu munatchedwa owukira. [9] Ine ndikuchedwetsa mkwiyo wanga chifukwa cha dzina langa. Ndikukulezerani ukali wanga kuti anthu andilemekeze. Sindidzakuwonongani kotheratu. [10] Taonani, ndinakuyeretsani ngati siliva; ndinakuyesani mʼngʼanjo yamasautso. [11] Chifukwa cha ulemu wanga, chifukwa cha ulemu wanga Ine ndikuchita zimenezi. Ndingalole bwanji kuti ndinyozeke? Ulemerero wanga sindidzawupereka kwa wina. [12] “Tamvera Ine, iwe Yakobo, Israeli, amene ndinakuyitana: Mulungu uja Woyamba ndi Wotsiriza ndine. [13] Inde dzanja langa linamanga maziko a dziko lapansi, dzanja langa lamanja linafunyulula mlengalenga. Ndi mawu anga ndinalenga kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi. [14] “Sonkhanani pamodzi inu nonse ndipo mvetserani: Ndani mwa mafano anu amene analoseratu za zinthu izi? Wokondedwa wa Yehova uja adzachita zomwe Iye anakonzera Babuloni; dzanja lake lidzalimbana ndi Kaldeya. [15] Ine, Inetu, ndayankhula; ndi kumuyitana ndidzamubweretsa ndine ndipo adzakwaniritsa zolinga zake. [16] “Bwerani pafupi ndipo mvetserani izi: “Kuyambira pachiyambi sindinayankhule mobisa; pa nthawi imene zinkachitika zimenezi Ine ndinali pomwepo.” Ndipo tsopano Ambuye Yehova wandipatsa Mzimu wake ndi kundituma. [17] Yehova, Mpulumutsi wanu, Woyerayo wa Israeli akuti, “Ine ndine Yehova Mulungu wanu, amene ndimakuphunzitsa kuti upindule, ndimakutsogolera pa njira yoyenera kuyitsata. [18] Ngati iwe ukanangosamalira zolamulira zanga, bwenzi mtendere wako ukanakhala ngati mtsinje, ndi chipulumutso chako ngati mafunde a pa nyanja. [19] Zidzukulu zako zikanachuluka ngati mchenga, ana ako akanachuluka ngati fumbi; dzina lawo silikanachotsedwa pamaso panga ndipo silikanafafanizidwa konse.” [20] Tulukani mʼdziko la Babuloni! Thawani dziko la Kaldeya! Lengezani zimenezi ndi mawu a chisangalalo ndipo muzilalikire mpaka kumathero a dziko lapansi; muzinena kuti, “Yehova wawombola Yakobo mtumiki wake.” [21] Iwo sanamve ludzu pamene Yehova ankawatsogolera mʼchipululu; anawapatsa madzi otuluka mʼthanthwe; anangʼamba thanthwelo ndipo munatuluka madzi. [22] “Palibe mtendere kwa anthu ochimwa,” akutero Yehova.
