Afundixi 13:1-25
13 O akwa Izalayele avutuka dingi mu kubhanga ima yayibhila Jihova. Jihova anga wa abhakula bhu maku a akwa Fidíxa mu makwinyi awana a mivu.
2 Mu thembu yenyoyo, kwakexile diyala mukwa Zola, watokalele kumwiji wa akwa Dane, dijina dyê Manowa. O muhatu wê wexile mbaku, kexile muvwala.
3 Sayi kizuwa o anju ya Jihova yamoneka kwa muhatu, yu wa mwambela: “Sumbala eye kwamuvwala, maji wanda kwimita, wanda vwala mon’a diyala.
4 Dilange phala kunwe vinyu mba uhôlwa wengi. Kana kudya kima kya kasana.
5 Eye wanda kwimita, wanda vwala mon’a diyala, katokala ku mubhuta o mútwe mukonda o mona wanda kala nazilé ya Nzambi tunde mu mala. Mwéne wanda bhulula akwa Izalayele bhu maku akwa Fidíxa.”
6 Mukusuluka, o muhatu wayi mutangela mwadi wê, wixi: “Sayi diyala dya Nzambi yakidi weza muzwela n’eme, o pholo yê ikwatesa wôma, yedi kala anju ya Nzambi yakidi. Ki nga mwibhwidisa se mwene mukwahi, mwene we kangitangela o dijina dyê.
7 Maji mwene wa ngambela, wixi: ‘Wanda kwimita, wanda vwala mon’a diyala. Kana kunwa vinyu mba uhôlwa wengi, kana kudya kima kyakasana. Mukonda o mona wanda kala nazilé ya Nzambi tunde mu mala kate ku ufwilu wê.’”
8 Manowa wadyondela Jihova, wixi: “Ngiloloke Jihova! Ngakudyondo, tumikisa dingi o diyala dya Nzambi yakidi di watumikisa. Eze mutulonga se ihi itwatokala o kubhanga ni mona utwanda muvwala.”
9 Kyenyiki, o Nzambi yakidi wevu Manowa. O anju ya Nzambi yakidi anga iza dingi kyoso o muhatu kyaxikamene mu mukáwu. O mwadi wê Manowa kexile-nê kumoxi.
10 O muhatu wayi ni kulenga mutangela mwadi wê, wixi: “Talesa, o diyala dyejile muveji iná, weza dingi.”
11 Mukusuluka, Manowa wabalumuka yu wayi kumoxi ni muhat’wê. Kyabhixila bhwexile o diyala, Manowa webhwidisa: “Éye wazwelele ni muhat‘wami?” Mwene wa mutambwijila: “Xe, eme mwene.”
12 Manowa wambe, wixi: “Kibhite kala ki wazwela! Kyebhi ki twatokala kusasa o mona ni ihi yanda bhanga mwene?”
13 O anju ya Jihova yambela Manowa, ixi: “O muhat’wé watokala kubhanga yoso i nga mutangela.
14 Mwene katokala kudya kima kitunda ku muxi wa muvidi, katokala kunwa vinyu mba uhôlwa wengi. Katokala we kudya kima kyakasana, watokala kubhanga o ima yoso i nga mutumu.”
15 Manowa wambela o anju ya Jihova, wixi: “Ngakudyondo, kana kuya hanji. Twanda kulambela kahombo.”
16 O anju ya Jihova yambela Manowa: “Né mwene se ngixala, kinganda tena kudya o kudya ku wanda ngilambela. Maji se wamesena kubhana sata ya kwoha kwa Jihova, utena kukibhanga.” Manowa kejidile kwila o yó wexile anju ya Jihova.
17 Manowa wambela o anju ya Jihova, wixi: “Dijina dyé nanyi, phala tu kujingise kyoso kyanda dikumbidila o izwelu yé?”
18 Maji o anju ya Jihova yambe: “Mukonda dyahi wamesena kwijiya o dijina dyami, se dyene dikôla?”
19 Manowa wakwata o kahombo ni sata ya jimbutu, yu wa ibhakula kwa Jihova ku thandu a ditadi. Kyoso Manowa ni muhat’wê kyexile mutala, o anju yabhange kima kya madiwanu.
20 Kyoso o mulengu wa tubhya wexile mu kalatódyu wexile mubanda ku dyulu, Manowa ni muhat’wê amono o anju ya Jihova kubanda ku dyulu bhukaxi ka mulengu wa tubhya wexile mu kalatódyu. Mu kithangana kyenyokyo, ene afukama ni pholo bhoxi.
21 O anju ya Jihova ki itukulukila dingi Manowa ni muhat’wê. Kyenyiki, Manowa watongoloka kwila yó wexile mwene anju ya Jihova.
22 Manowa wambela o muhat’wê, wixi: “Mukidi, etu twanda fwa, mukonda twamono Nzambi.”
23 Maji o muhatu wa mwambela, wixi: “Se Jihova wamesenene kutujibha, keji xikina o sata yetu ya kwoha ni sata yetu ya jimbutu. Keji tulondekesa we o ima yoso yiyi ni kutwambela o ima yoso itwevu.”
24 Ku pholo dya kwenda, o muhatu wavwala mona dyala, wamuluku o dijina dya Sasawu. O kamona wexile mukula, Jihova anga uya ni ku mubesowala.
25 Mukubhita thembu, o nzumbi ikôla ya Jihova yeza ku thandu dyê, kyoso mwene kyakexile ku Mahane-Dani, bhukaxi ka Zola ni Xitaholi.
