19 Mu mazuŵa ngeningo, pa nyengu yo mu Isirayeli mwengavi fumu,+ Mlevi yo wajanga muchigaŵa chakutali chamapiri cha Efurayemu+ wanguto mbilika* ya ku Betelehemu+ ku Yuda kuti yije muwolu waki.
2 Kweni mbilika yaki yenga yambula kugomezgeka kwaku iyu, ndipu yingumuleka ndi kuluta kunyumba ya awisi ku Betelehemu ku Yuda. Ndipu yinguja kweniko kwa myezi yinayi.
3 Sonu mulumu waki wangumulondo kuti wakamunyengere kuti waweku; iyu wangulutiya limoza ndi mteŵeti waki kweniso wenga ndi abulu. Msungwana yo wangusereza mulumu waki munyumba ya awisi. Awisi ŵati awona munthulumi yo, angukondwa ukongwa kukumana nayu.
4 Sonu asibweni ŵaki, wo mbawisi a msungwana, angumunyengere kuti waje nawu kwa mazuŵa ngatatu. Yiwu aryanga ndi kumwa, ndipu iyu wagonanga kweniko.
5 Pa zuŵa lachinayi, ŵati ayuka mlenjilenji kuti akengi, awisi a msungwana angukambiya mkosanu wawu kuti: “Uryeku dankha kanthu kanyaki kuti usaniyi nthazi,* ndipu pavuli paki ungaluta.”
6 Mwaviyo, iyu wanguja pasi ndipu wosi pamoza angurya ndi kumwa. Pavuli paki, awisi a msungwana angukambiya munthulumi yo kuti: “Chondi, ugoni kunu usiku wunu ndipu ukondweku.”*
7 Munthu yo wati wasoka kuti wakengi, asibweni ŵaki* angumuŵeyere ndipu iyu wangugona so kweniko.
8 Pa zuŵa lachinkhondi, wati wayuka ndi mlenjilenji kuti wakengi, awisi a msungwana angumukambiya kuti: “Chondi, uryeku kanthu kanyaki kuti usaniyi nthazi.”* Yiwu angulutirizga kucheza mpaka mazulu, ndipu wosi aryanga.
9 Sonu munthu yo wati wasoka kuti wakengi ndi mbilika yaki kweniso mteŵeti waki, asibweni ŵaki, wo mbawisi a msungwana angumukambiya kuti: “Awona! Kwafipa kali. Chondi, ugoni kunu chifukwa zuŵa le pafupi kumala. Ugoni kwenikunu usiku wunu kuti ukondweku, ndipu mawa ungachelera kuti ukengi kunyumba yaku.”*
10 Kweni munthu yo wangukhumba cha kuti wagoni so. Mwaviyo wangusoka ndipu wangwenda mpaka ku Yebusi, kung’anamuwa Yerusalemu.+ Iyu wenga ndi abulu ŵaŵi akukwerapu, mbilika yaki kweniso mteŵeti waki.
11 Ŵati afika kufupi ndi Yebusi, lumwi linguja kamanavi kusere. Sonu mteŵeti wangufumba mbuyaki kuti: “Kumbi timi pa tawuni iyi ya Yebusi kuti tigoni kwenuku?”
12 Kweni mbuyaki wangumuka kuti: “Tingamanga cha patawuni ya ŵanthu amitundu yinyaki wo mbayisirayeli cha. Tilutiriyengi mpaka tikafiki ku Gibeya.”+
13 Sonu wangukambiya mteŵeti waki kuti: “Tiyeni tiyesesi kuti tikafiki pa ngamoza mwa malu ngenanga; tamugona ku Gibeya pamwenga ku Rama.”+
14 Yiwu angulutirizga ulendu wawu ndipu lumwi lingwamba kusere ŵe pafupi ndi Gibeya, yo ndi tawuni ya ŵanthu a fuku laku Benjamini.
15 Sonu yiwu anguma, ndipu angusere mu Gibeya kuti agoni mwenimo. Ŵati asere, anguja pasi mubalaza la tawuni yo, kweni pengavi munthu yo wanguŵato kuti akagoni munyumba yaki.+
16 Pavuli paki ndi mazulu ngenanga, panguza munthu munyaki wakukota yo watuwanga ku ntchitu yaki kumunda. Munthu uyu kwawu kwenga kuchigaŵa chamapiri cha Efurayemu,+ ndipu pa nyengu iyi wajanga ku Gibeya kwa kanyengu kamanavi. Kweni ŵanthu a mutawuni iyi ŵenga a fuku laku Benjamini.+
17 Munthu wakukota wati wawona munthu yo wenga pa ulendu mubalaza la tawuni, wangumufumba kuti: “Uluta pani, ndipu utuwa pani?”
18 Iyu wangumuka kuti: “Tituwa ku Betelehemu ku Yuda ndipu tiluta kuchigaŵa chakutali chamapiri cha Efurayemu, kwenuku ndiku kwidu. Ndinguluta ku Betelehemu ku Yuda,+ ndipu ndiluta kunyumba yaku Yehova,* kweni palivi yo wanditole munyumba yaki.
19 Te ndi uteka kweniso chakurya cha abulu chakukwana.+ Te so ndi chiŵandi+ ndi vinyu waku ini, munthukazi ndipuso mteŵeti widu. Te ndi chechosi.”
20 Munthu wakukota yo wangumuka kuti: “Chimangu chiŵi nawi! Ndikupaskengi vosi vo ukhumbika. Kweni ungagonanga mubwalu ili cha.”
21 Sonu wangumutole munyumba yaki ndipu wangupaska abulu chakurya.* Pavuli paki, yiwu angusamba mumaphazi ndipu angurya ndi kumwa.
22 Pa nyengu yo yiwu akondwanga, ŵanthu abwekabweka a mutawuni yo anguzunguliya nyumba ndipu apumanga chisasa. Yiwu akambiyanga munthu wakukota, yo wenga mweneku wa nyumba kuti: “Tituzgiyi munthulumi yo waza munyumba yaku kuti tigonani nayu.”+
23 Wati wavwa ivi, mweneku wa nyumba wangutuwa ndi kuchiŵakambiya kuti: “Awa abali ŵangu, mungachitanga vinthu viheni cha. Chondi, munthu uyu ndi mulendu munyumba yangu. Mungachitanga cha chinthu chakulengesa ichi.
24 Pe mwana wangu munthukazi yo wechendagonanepu ndi munthulumi weyosi kweniso pe mbilika ya munthu uyu. Wuli ndikutoliyeni ŵenaŵa kuti muŵalengesi asani mukhumba.*+ Kweni munthu uyu mungamuchitiyanga cha chinthu chakulengesa ichi.”
25 Kweni anthulumi yaŵa angukana kumuvwiya, sonu Mlevi wanguko mbilika yaki+ ndipu wanguyituzgiya kubwalu ko yiwu ŵenga. Yiwu anguyikolere ndi kuyichitiya nkhaza usiku wosi mpaka mlenji. Pavuli paki, chakumatandakucha anguyileka kuti yikengi.
26 Ndi mlenjilenji, munthukazi yuwa wanguza ndipu wanguwa pasi pakhomu lakuselere munyumba ya munthu yuwa, mo mwenga mbuyaki. Iyu wangugona penipo mpaka lumwi lingutuwa.
27 Mbuyaki wati wayuka mlenji ndi kujula visasa va nyumba kuti walutirizgi ulendu waki, iyu wangusaniya kuti munthukazi, kung’anamuwa mbilika yaki wagona panthazi pa nyumba ndipu manja ngaki wangaŵika pakhomu.
28 Sonu iyu wangumukambiya kuti: “Soka, tiyi tikengi.” Kweni wangumuka cha. Munthulumi yo, wangumukweza pabulu ndi kwamba ulendu wakuluta kunyumba yaki.
29 Wati wafika kunyumba yaki, iyu wanguto chimayi chakubayiya nyama ndi kucheketa mbilika yo vigaŵa 12. Pavuli paki, wangutumiza chigaŵa chimozachimoza kuchigaŵa chechosi cha Isirayeli.
30 Weyosi yo wanguwona ivi wangukamba kuti: “Chinthu cha viyo chechendachitikepu pamwenga kuwonekapu kutuliya pa zuŵa lo Ayisirayeli angutuliya mucharu cha Ijipiti mpaka msanawale. Nkhani iyi muyiŵanaŵaniyi,* mukambiskani+ ndipu mutikambiyi vakuti tichiti.”
