Numeri

14 Pamenepo khamu lonselo linayamba kudandaula mofuula, ndipo anthuwo anachezera kulira+ usiku wonse. 2 Ana onse a Isiraeli anayamba kudandaula za Mose ndi Aroni.+ Ndipo khamu lonselo linati: “Zikanakhala bwino tikanangofera ku Iguputo, kapena tikanangofera m’chipululu muno. 3 N’chifukwa chiyani Yehova watibweretsa kudziko lino kuti tidzaphedwe ndi lupanga?+ Akazi athu ndi ana athu adzatengedwa ndi adani.+ Kodi si bwino kuti tingobwerera ku Iguputo?”+ 4 Iwo anafika ngakhale pouzana kuti: “Tiyeni tisankhe mtsogoleri, tibwerere ku Iguputo!”+

5 Mose ndi Aroni atamva zimenezi, anagwada n’kuwerama mpaka nkhope zawo pansi+ pamaso pa khamu lonse la ana a Isiraeli. 6 Ndipo Yoswa mwana wa Nuni,+ ndi Kalebe mwana wa Yefune,+ amene anakazonda nawo dzikolo, anang’amba zovala zawo.+ 7 Iwo anauza khamu lonse la ana a Isiraeli kuti: “Dziko limene tinakalowamo n’kulizonda, n’labwino kwambiri.+ 8 Yehova akatikomera mtima,+ ndithu adzatilowetsa m’dzikolo n’kulipereka kwa ife, dziko loyenda mkaka ndi uchi.+ 9 Chongofunika n’chakuti musam’pandukire Yehova.+ Komanso anthu a m’dzikolo musawaope,+ chifukwa ali ngati chakudya kwa ife. Alibenso chitetezo,+ koma ifeyo Yehova ali nafe.+ Musawaope ayi.”+

10 Koma khamu lonselo linayamba kunena zoti liwaponye miyala.+ Kenako, ulemerero wa Yehova unaonekera kwa ana a Isiraeli onse pamwamba pa chihema chokumanako.+

11 Ndiyeno Yehova analankhula ndi Mose kuti: “Kodi anthu awa apitiriza kundinyoza kufikira liti?+ Kodi adzayamba liti kundikhulupirira pambuyo pa zizindikiro zonse zimene ndachita pakati pawo?+ 12 Ndiwagwetsera mliri ndi kuwafafaniza, ndipo iwe ndidzakusandutsa mtundu waukulu ndi wamphamvu kuposa iwowa.”+

13 Koma Mose anamuyankha Yehova kuti: “Mukatero, Aiguputo amene munalanditsako anthuwa mwa mphamvu zanu, adzamva ndithu zimenezi.+ 14 Iwo akamva adzauza anthu a m’dziko lino, amene amva kuti inu Yehova muli pakati pa anthu anu,+ ndi kuti mumaonekera kwa iwo pamasom’pamaso.+ Inu ndinu Yehova, ndipo mtambo wanu uli pamwamba pawo. Masana mumawatsogolera mumtambo woima njo ngati chipilala, pamene usiku mumawatsogolera m’lawi lamoto.+ 15 Mukapha anthuwa kamodzi n’kamodzi ngati mukupha munthu mmodzi,+ ndithu mitundu imene yamva za ukulu wanu idzati, 16 ‘Chifukwa Yehova analephera kufikitsa anthuwo kudziko limene anawalumbirira, anangowaphera m’chipululu.’+ 17 Chonde Yehova, tsopano sonyezani ukulu wa mphamvu zanu,+ monga munanenera kuti, 18 ‘Yehova ndi wosakwiya msanga,+ ndipo ndi wodzaza ndi kukoma mtima kosatha.+ Amakhululukira wolakwa ndi wophwanya malamulo,+ koma iye salekerera konse wolakwa osam’langa.+ Amalanga ana, zidzukulu, ndi ana a zidzukuluzo chifukwa cha zolakwa za makolo awo.’+ 19 Chonde, khululukani kulakwa kwa anthuwa mwa kukoma mtima kwanu kosatha, ngati mmene mwakhala mukuwakhululukira kuchokera ku Iguputo mpaka pano.”+

20 Ndiyeno Yehova anati: “Chabwino, ndakhululuka chifukwa cha mawu ako.+ 21 Komanso, pali ine Mulungu wamoyo, dziko lonse lapansi lidzadzaza ndi ulemerero wa Yehova.+ 22 Koma anthu onse amene aona ulemerero wanga,+ ndi zizindikiro zanga+ zimene ndinachita ku Iguputo, ndi zimene ndachita m’chipululu, amene akupitirizabe kundiyesa+ maulendo 10 onsewa, amenenso sanamvere mawu anga,+ 23 sadzaliona m’pang’ono pomwe dziko limene ndinalumbirira makolo awo. Ndithudi, onse amene sakundipatsa ulemu, sadzaliona dzikolo.+ 24 Koma mtumiki wanga Kalebe,+ chifukwa wasonyeza kuti ali ndi mzimu wosiyana ndi wa ena, ndipo wakhala akunditsatira ndi mtima wonse,+ ndithudi ndidzam’lowetsa m’dziko limene anakalizonda, ndipo mbadwa zake zidzakhalamo ngati dziko lawo.+ 25 Popeza kuti Aamaleki ndi Akanani+ akukhala kuchigwa, mawa mutembenuke, munyamuke ulendo wolowera kuchipululu podzera njira yopita ku Nyanja Yofiira.”+

26 Yehova anapitiriza kulankhula kwa Mose ndi Aroni, kuti: 27 “Kodi khamu la anthu oipa amenewa lidandaula motsutsana nane kufikira liti?+ Ndamva kudandaula konseko kumene ana a Isiraeli akuchita motsutsana nane.+ 28 Uwauze kuti, ‘Yehova wanena kuti: “Pali ine Mulungu wamoyo, mudzandifunse ngati sindidzachita kwa inu monga mwa zimene mwakhala mukulankhula, zimene ndadzimvera ndekha m’makutu mwangamu.+ 29 Mitembo yanu idzagona m’chipululu muno,+ nonsenu amene munawerengedwa, kuyambira azaka 20 kupita m’tsogolo, inu amene mwakhala mukudandaula motsutsana nane.+ 30 Inu simudzalowa m’dziko limene ndinachita kukweza dzanja langa+ polumbira kuti ndidzakhala nanu mmenemo, kupatula Kalebe mwana wa Yefune, ndi Yoswa mwana wa Nuni.+

31 “‘“Komanso, ana anu amene munati adzatengedwa ndi adani,+ nawonso ndidzawalowetsa m’dzikolo ndithu. Moti dziko limene inuyo mwalikana, iwo adzalidziwa bwino.+ 32 Koma inuyo mitembo yanu idzagona m’chipululu muno.+ 33 Ana anu adzakhala abusa m’chipululu+ kwa zaka 40, ndipo adzavutika chifukwa cha kusakhulupirika*+ kwanu, mpaka womalizira kufa wa inu atagona m’manda m’chipululu.+ 34 Mwa kuchuluka kwa masiku amene munazonda dzikolo, masiku 40,+ mudzalangidwanso kwa zaka 40+ chifukwa cha zolakwa zanu, tsiku limodzi kuwerengera chaka chimodzi, tsiku limodzi chaka chimodzi,+ kuti mudziwe kuipa kondipandukira.+

35 “‘“Ine Yehova ndalankhula, mudzandifunse ngati sindidzawafafaniza m’chipululu mommuno anthu oipa onsewa,+ amene agwirizana kuti atsutsane ndi ine. Onse adzathera m’chipululu mommuno.+ 36 Komanso amuna amene Mose anawatuma kukazonda dzikolo, amene atabwerako anapangitsa anthu onse kudandaula motsutsana ndi Mose, mwa kunena zoipa zokhudza dzikolo,+ 37 amuna amene anadzanena zoipa zokhazokha zokhudza dzikolo, adzafa ndi mliri wa Yehova.+ 38 Koma mwa amuna amene anakazonda dzikolo, Yoswa mwana wa Nuni ndi Kalebe mwana wa Yefune, adzakhalabe ndi moyo ndithu.”’”+

39 Mose atalankhula mawuwo kwa ana onse a Isiraeli, anthu onsewo anayamba kulira kwambiri.+ 40 Komanso, iwo anadzuka m’mawa kwambiri kuti apite kudera lamapiri lija, ndipo anati: “Tiyeni! Ife tipita kumalo amene Yehova ananena, chifukwa tachimwa.”+ 41 Koma Mose anati: “N’chifukwa chiyani mukuphwanya lamulo la Yehova?+ Zimenezo sizikuthandizani. 42 Musapite kumeneko chifukwa Yehova sali nanu. Adani anuwo akakugonjetsani.+ 43 Kumeneko mukakumana ndi Aamaleki ndi Akanani,+ ndithu akakuphani ndi lupanga. Chifukwa mwasiya kutsatira Yehova, Yehovayo sapita nanu kumeneko.”+

44 Komabe, anthuwo ananyamuka mwa iwo okha ulendo wopita kudera lamapiri kuja,+ koma likasa la pangano la Yehova silinachoke pakati pa msasa. Mose nayenso sanachoke.+ 45 Koma Aamaleki+ ndi Akanani omwe anali kukhala kudera lamapirilo anatsika n’kuyamba kuwapha ndi kuwabalalitsa mpaka ku Horima.+
