14 Penepo mbumba yonsene yatoma kukhuwa, mbiphuphudza na kulira pa masiku+ anewa. 2 Aizraeli onsene atoma kudungunyira Mose na Aroni,+ pontho mbumba yonsene ikhaalonga mwakuipa. Iwo akhalonga: “Mbapidakhala mwadidi kakamwe mbidafa pyathu mu dziko ya Ejitu, peno khala tafera pyathu nʼthando ino! 3 Thangwi yanji Yahova atibweresa ku dziko ino toera tiphiwe na supada?+ Akazathu na anathu anadzakwatwa ninga pinthu pyakutapatwa.+ Kodi nee pinakhala mwadidi kakamwe tibwerere pyathu ku Ejitu?”+ 4 Iwo akhalongambo unango na ndzace: “Tendeni tisankhule ntsogoleri, toera tibwerere pyathu ku Ejitu!”+

5 Mose na Aroni pidabva iwo pyenepi, agodama mbakotamisa misolo yawo mpaka pantsi pamaso pa mbumba yonsene ya* Izraeli ikhali penepo. 6 Yoswa+ mwana wa Nuni na Kalebe+ mwana wa Yefune, akuti akhalimbo pakati pa amuna adaenda kaona dziko, apandula nguwo zawo, 7 mbalonga ipi kuna mbumba yonsene ya Izraeli: “Dziko+ idaenda ife kaona ndi yadidi, yadidi kakamwe. 8 Khala Yahova akomerwa na ife, mwakukhonda penula, iye anatipitisa mu dziko ineyi, mbatipasa dziko ineyi ya nkaka na uci.+ 9 Mbwenye lekani kusandukira* Yahova, pontho lekani kugopa anthu a dziko+ ineyi, thangwi ife tinaakunda mwakukhonda nentsa.* Iwo nkhabe citsidzikizo, mbwenye Yahova ali na ife.+ Lekani kuagopa.”

10 Ngakhale tenepo, mbumba yonsene ikhalonga kuti iwo asafunika kuponyerwa+ miyala. Penepo ceza ca mbiri ya Yahova caoneka pa nsasa wa nsonkhano pamaso pa mbumba yonsene ya Izraeli.+

11 Yahova alonga na Mose: “Mpaka lini mbumba iyi inapitiriza kukhonda kundilemedza,+ pontho mpaka lini inapitiriza kukhonda kundikhulupira, mwakukhonda tsalakana pirengo* pyonsene pidacita ine pakati pawo?+ 12 Dikhira ndiabweresere muliri toera ndiafudze, pontho ndinacitisa kuti iwe ukhale mbumba ikulu na yamphambvu kupiringana iwo.”+

13 Mbwenye Mose apanga Yahova: “Mungacita pyenepi, anthu a ku Ejitu, kule kwakuti na mphambvu yanu, mwabulusa mbumba yanu, anapibva+ 14 mbalonga pyenepi kuna anthu a dziko ino. Kusiyapo pyenepi, anthu a dziko ino abva kuti imwe Yahova, muli pakati pa mbumba+ iyi, pontho musaonekera pakweca*+ kuna iwo. Iwo abva kuti imwe ndimwe Yahova, kuti khole yanu iri padzulu pawo; pontho kuti namasikati musaenda patsogolo pawo mu khole, namasiku+ mu khole ya moto. 15 Mungapha mbumba iyi pa ndzidzi ubodzi ene,* anthu a madzindza anango adabva pya mbiri yanu, analonga kuti: 16 ‘Yahova nee akwanisa kupitisa mbumba ineyi mu dziko idapikira iye toera kuapasa, na thangwi ineyi, iye amala kuapha nʼthando.’+ 17 Cincino Yahova, ndaphata miyendo, pangizani kukula kwa mphambvu zanu, ninga mudapikira imwe kuti: 18 ‘Yahova, wakupirira,* waufuni+ kakamwe,* wakulekerera madodo na madawo, mbwenye iye cipo anasiya kuti nyakudawa akhonde kutcunyuswa, pontho thangwi ya madawo a ababa, iye asatcunyusa ana, adzukulu na ana a adzukulu.’+ 19 Ndaphata miyendo, lekererani madodo a mbumba iyi, mwakubverana na ufuni wanu, ninga mudalekerera imwe mbumba iyi kutomera ku Ejitu mpaka pano.”+

20 Penepo Yahova alonga: “Ine ndinaalekerera mwakubverana na pidalonga+ iwe. 21 Mbwenye ine ndiri kudumbira mu dzina yanga, dziko yonsene yapantsi inadzala na mbiri ya Yahova.+ 22 Mbwenye anthu awa adaona mbiri yanga na pirengo+ pidacita ine ku Ejitu na nʼthando, mbapitiriza kundiyesera+ kazinji kene,* pontho mbakhonda kubvesera fala+ yanga, nee mʼbodzi wa iwo 23 anadzaona dziko idapikira ine kupasa ababawo. Inde, ale adakhonda kundilemedza,* nee mʼbodzi wa iwo anadzaona dziko+ ineyi. 24 Mbwenye nakuti ntumiki wanga Kalebe+ apangiza makhaliro akusiyana,* mbapitiriza kundibvera na ntima onsene, mwakukhonda penula, ine ndinamʼphedza toera apite mu dziko idaenda iye kaona, pontho anace anadzakhala mu dziko+ ineyi. 25 Nakuti Aamaleki na Akanani+ asakhala mu gowa,* mangwana musafunika muzungunuke, muende kuthando, mupite na njira ya ku Bara+ Yakufuira.”

26 Buluka penepo Yahova apanga Mose na Aroni: 27 “Mpaka lini mbumba iyi yakuipa inapitiriza kundidungunyira?+ Ine ndabva kudungunya kunandicitira+ Aizraeli. 28 Apange kuti: ‘Yahova alonga: “Ine ndiri kudumbira mu dzina yanga, ine ndinakucitirani pinthu pyenepi pidabva ine mbamukapilonga!+ 29 Manungo anu akufa anadzagwa+ nʼthando ino, inde, onsene adalemberwa, akuti ali na thunga ya pyaka 20 kuenda kutsogolo, imwe monsene mudandidungunyira.+ 30 Nee mʼbodzi wa imwe anadzapita mu dziko idadumbira ine* toera kukupasani,+ basi ene Kalebe mwana wa Yefune na Yoswa mwana wa Nuni,+ ndiwo anafuna kupitamo.

31 “‘“Mbwenye ananu adalonga imwe kuti anadzakwatwa ninga pinthu pyakutapatwa,+ ine ndinadzaapitisa mu dziko idakhonda+ imwe, iwo anadzaidziwa. 32 Mbwenye manungo anu akufa anadzagwa nʼthando ino. 33 Cincino, ananu anadzakhala akumbizi nʼthando mu pyaka 40,+ iwo anadzatcunyuswa thangwi yakucita kwanu pinthu mwakukhonda kukhulupirika, mpaka munthu wakumalisa angafa nʼthando+ pakati panu. 34 Imwe munadzatcunyuswa mu pyaka 40+ thangwi ya madawo anu, mwakubverana na ntsiku 40+ zidamala imwe mu ndzidzi udaenda imwe kaona dziko, pyenepi pisabveka ntsiku ibodzi ndi caka cibodzi, imwe munadzadziwa nyatwa zinaoneka thangwi ya kundisandukira.*

35 “‘“Ine Yahova ndalonga. Ipi ndipyo pinafuna kucitira ine mbumba iyi yonsene yakuipa, ale onsene adagumanyikana toera kundisandukira: Iwo anamalira nʼthando ino, iwo anafera+ muno. 36 Amuna onsene adatumwa na Mose toera kuenda kaona dziko mbacitisa mbumba yonsene kudungunyira Mose pidabwerera iwo na mphangwa zakuipa thangwi ya dziko+ ineyi, 37 inde, amuna adabweresa mphangwa zakuipa thangwi ya dziko ineyi, anadzatcunyuswa, mbafa pamaso pa Yahova.+ 38 Mbwenye Yoswa mwana wa Nuni na Kalebe mwana wa Yefune, akuti akhali pabodzi na ale adaenda kaona dziko, mwakukhonda penula iwo anapitiriza na umaso.”’”+

39 Mose pidalonga iye mafala anewa kuna Aizraeli onsene, mbumba yatsukwala kakamwe. 40 Kusiyapo pyenepi, mangwana mwace iwo abesera thangwi akhafuna kuenda kucisa ca mapiri, mbalonga: “Ife tadawa.+ Mbwenye cincino tiri dzololo toera kuenda ku mbuto idalonga Yahova.” 41 Mbwenye Mose aapanga: “Thangwi yanji muli kupwaza ntemo wa Yahova? Pinafuna imwe nee pinacitika. 42 Lekani kuenda, toera mukhonde kukundwa na anyamalwa anu,+ thangwi Yahova nee ali pakati panu. 43 Aamaleki na Akanani ali kweneko toera kumenyana na imwe,+ imwe munadzaphiwa na supada. Nakuti imwe mwasiya kubvera* Yahova, Yahova nee anadzakhala na imwe.”+

44 Ngakhale tenepo, iwo acita pikhafuna iwo mbaenda* padzulu paphiri,+ mbwenye Bokosi ya Cibverano ca Yahova nee yabuluka pakati pa misasa,+ pontho Mose nee abulukambo. 45 Penepo, Aamaleki na Akanani akuti akakhala paphiri ineyi, atcita mbatoma kuapha, iwo aabalalisa mpaka ku Orma.+
