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.”
