Amose 4:1-13
4 “Bvani mafalaya, imwe ng’ombe zikazi za ku Basani,Zomwe ziri m’phiri la Samariya,Imwe akazi omwe mukucitira bzacinyengo wanthu wakunyozeka ndipo mukuponderera wanthu wakusauka,Ndipo mukuuza azibayanu* kuti: ‘Tibweresereni bzakumwa kuti timwe!’
2 Yahova Mbuya Mkululetu walumbirira kucena kwace kuti:‘“Onani! Zikufika ntsiku zomwe imwepo mun’dzanyamulidwa pa ngoloweko za munthu wakupha nyamaNdipo anyakusala pakati panu an’dzanyamulidwa na medzo.
3 Imwepo mu’dzabula na m’mikhekhe* ya muro, ali-wentse pa mkhekhe omwe uli pafupi na iye;Ndipo mun’dzathamangisidwa mucithawira ku Harimoni,” walewa tenepo Yahova.’
4 ‘Bwerani ku Beteli kuti mudzacite pikado,*Ndipo bwerani ku Giligali kuti mudzathumizire kucita pikado!
Bweresani ntsembe zanu macibese,Ndipo pa ntsiku yacitatu bweresani cakupereka canu cakhumi.
5 Tenthani pau yakukonzedwa na fermento ninga ntsembe yakutenda,Dziwisani mwakukuwa bza ntsembe zanu zakucita kufuna!
Pakuti bzimwebzi ni bzomwe mumbafuna kucita, imwe wanthu wa mu Jirayeri,’ walewa tenepo Yahova Mbuya Mkululetu.
6 ‘Ndipo inepano ndiribe kukupasani cakudya* m’mizinda yanu yentseNdipo ndacitisa kuti musaye cakudya m’miyi yanu yentse;Tsono imwepo mulibe kubwerera kwa ine,’ walewa tenepo Yahova.
7 ‘Ndipo ndidacitisambo kuti kuleke kubvumba pomwe kukhadasala minyezi mitatu kuti mubvune;Ndikhabvumbisa nvula mzinda ubodzi, koma unango ndikhabvumbisa lini.
Nvula ikhabvumba m’munda ubodzi,Tsono m’munda unango ikhabvumba lini ndipo ukhauma.
8 Wanthu wa m’mizinda miwiri ayai mitatu akhadzedzereka kuyenda mu mzinda unango kukamwa madzi,Napo bziri tenepo, iwo akhakhondwa lini;Tsono imwepo mulibe kubwerera kwa ine,’ walewa tenepo Yahova.
9 ‘Ndadzonga bzomwe mudabzala na mphepo yakupsa pabodzi na mkungwe.
Imwepo mukhathumizira madimba yanu na minda ya uva,Tsono bziwala bzikhadzonga miti yanu ya nkhuyu na ya maolivera;Napo bziri tenepo, imwepo mukhabwerera lini kwa ine,’ walewa tenepo Yahova.
10 ‘Ndidakutumizirani cisi ninga ca ku Edjipito.
Ndidapha maswaka yanu na xipada ndipo ndidakutengerani makavalo yanu.
Ndidacitisa kununkha kwa misasa yanu kufika m’mphuno mwanu;Tsono imwepo mulibe kubwerera kwa ine,’ walewa tenepo Yahova.
11 ‘Ndidapfudza pakati panuNinga momwe ndidapfudzira Sodoma na Gomora.
Ndipo imwepo mukhali ninga citsiga comwe cafumulidwa pa moto;Tsono imwepo mulibe kubwerera kwa ine,’ walewa tenepo Yahova.
12 Tenepo, bzimwebzi ni bzomwe nin’dzakucitira, iwe Jirayeri.
Pakuti nin’dzakucitira bzimwebzi,Konzeka kuti ukagumane na Mulungu wako, iwe Jirayeri.
13 Pakuti ndiye omwe adakonza mapiri na mphepo;Iye ambauza munthu makumbukidwe yace,Iye ambacinja madandakweca kukhala usiku,Ndipo ambaponda mbuto zapadzulu za pa dziko la pantsi;Dzina lace ni Yahova, Mulungu wa anyankhondo.”
