Dimatekenu 8:1-22
8 Maji Nzambi walembalala Nowé ni yama yoso ya yangu, ni ibhaku yoso yakexile-nayu mu álaka. Nzambi anga ubhangesa kitembwe kubhuka mu ngongo, o menya anga amateka kubhwinina* mu ngongo.
2 Kyenyiki o matuta a menya azongo, ni mabhitu ma dyulu a ajika, mvula anga ibatuka.
3 Mukyenyiki, o menya mu ngongo amateka kusosoloka bhofele-bhofele, mukubhita hama ni makwinyi atanu a izuwa o menya asosoloka.
4 Mu mbeji ya kasambwadi mu kizuwa kya dikwinyi ni sambwadi, o álaka yatula ku milundu ya Alalate.
5 O menya-phe aya ni kubhwinina kate mu mbeji ya dikwinyi. Mu mbeji ya dikwinyi, mu kizuwa kya dyanga, o jisungu ja milundu ja moneka.
6 Mukubhita makwinyi awana a izuwa, Nowé wajikula o njanena yabhangele mu álaka.
7 Mwene anga utubhula kilombelombe bhu kanga, kikwata kwila kiya kivutuka, kiya kivutuka, kate o menya mu ngongo kyayi ni ku kukuta.
8 Mukusuluka mwene watubhula dyembe, phala kumona se o menya asosolokele mwene mu ngongo.
9 O dyembe kidyasange kididi kya kutula. Mukiki dyavutuka kwa Nowé, mukonda mu ngongo yoso mwexile hanji menya. Nowé anga usununa o lukwaku lwê, ukwata o dyembe, udibokwesa dingi mu álaka.
10 Wakingila dingi sambwadi dya izuwa, yu watubhula dingi o dyembe.
11 Kyoso o dyembe ki dyavutuka kwa Nowé ku dimatekenu dya usuku, mwene wamono kwila ku muzumbu wê kwakexile difwe dya wisu dya mudiva! Mukyenyiki, Nowé anga wijiya kwila o menya mu ngongo asosoloka kya.
12 Mwene wakingila dingi sambwadi dya izuwa. Watubhula dingi o dyembe, maji o dyembe kidyavutuka dingi kwa mwene.
13 Mukyenyiki, mu muvu wa hama jisamanu ni umoxi, mu mbeji ya dyanga, mu kizuwa kya dyanga, o menya mu ngongo exile mu bhwinina kya. Nowé anga ukatula o kivunginu ku ditala dya álaka, yu wamono kwila o menya mu ngongo exile mu kukuta kya.
14 Mu mbeji ya kayadi mu kizuwa kya makwinyi ayadi ni sambwadi, ngongo yoso yakukutile kya mwene.
15 Bhenyobho Nzambi wambela Nowé, wixi:
16 “Tunda mu álaka ni muhat’wê, ni twana twé ni ahatu a twana twé.
17 Ambata o yama yoso ya mwenyu, ya idifwa yoso, o yama ni ibamba yala ni mabhabha, o yama ni yama ihuhutila bhoxi, phala idivwalule ni isokoloke kyavulu mu ngongo.”
18 Kyenyiki-phe, Nowé watundu kumoxi ni twana twê, ni muhat’wê ni ahatu a twana twê.
19 O yama yoso ya mwenyu, o yama yoso ihuhutila bhoxi, o yama yoso ni ibamba yala ni mabhabha ni yoso yendela ku mavu, yatundu mu álaka mu ibuka ibuka.*
20 Kyenyiki, Nowé watungu kalatódyu phala Jihova. Mukaxi ka yama yazele ni yama yazele yala ni mabhabha, wasolo-mu yama, u ibhakula kala jisata ja kwoha ku kalatódyu.
21 Jihova anga umateka kwivwa dizumba dyambote. Kyenyiki ku muxima wê Jihova wambe: “Nuka nganda bhubhidila dingi o ixi mukonda dya muthu, kuma o ixinganeku ya muxima wa muthu yayibha tunde mu undenge wê. Nuka dingi nganda bwikisa o athu ni yama yoso yala ni mwenyu kala ki ngabhange kiki.
22 Tunde lelu kate ku hádya, o ixi nuka dingi yanda kamba jimbutu ni idima ya kubhongolola, mbambi ni kalolo, kixibhu ni mvula, mwanya ni usuku.”
