Yesaya
56 Yehova wakuti:
“Koleskani weruzgi wakunyoloka,+ chitani urunji,
Pakuti chiponosko chane chizenge sonosono,
Ndipo urunji wane uvumbulikenge.+
2 Wakukondwa ni munthu uyo wakuchita ichi,
Na mwana wa munthu uyo wakuchikoleska,
Mweneuyo wakusunga Sabata kwambura kulinanga,+
Uyo wakuwezgako woko lake ku uheni uliwose.
3 Mulendo uyo wajibatika kwa Yehova waleke kuyowoya kuti:
‘Yehova+ wanipaturenge nadi ku ŵanthu ŵake.’
Nthunguli yileke kuyowoya kuti: ‘Wonani, ine nili khuni lakomira.’”
4 Pakuti Yehova wakuphalira nthunguli izo zikusunga masabata ghane, izo zikusankha icho nkhukondwa nacho na kukoleska phangano lane kuti:
5 “Nizipenge chikumbusko na zina mu nyumba yane na mukati mwa viliŵa vyane,
Chinthu chiwemi chomene kuluska ŵana ŵanalume na ŵanakazi.
Nizipenge zina lamuyirayira,
Ilo limalenge chara.
6 Ndipo ŵalendo awo ŵajibatika kwa Yehova kumuteŵetera,
Kutemwa zina la Yehova,+
Na kuŵa ŵateŵeti ŵake,
Wose awo ŵakusunga Sabata kwambura kulinanga,
Awo ŵakukoleska phangano lane,
7 Nawo niŵatolerenge ku phiri lane lituŵa+
Na kuŵakondweska mu nyumba yane yakusoperamo.
Sembe zawo zakotcha zamsuma na sembe zawo zinyake zipokelerekenge pa jotchero lane.
Pakuti nyumba yane yichemekenge nyumba yakusoperamo ŵanthu wose.”+
8 Fumu Yikuru Yehova, iyo yikuwunganya pamoza ŵakumbininika ŵa Israyeli,+ yikuti:
“Niwunganyenge kwa iyo ŵanyake padera pa awo ŵawunganyika kale.”+
9 Imwe mose vikoko vyamuthondo, zani muzakarye,
Imwe mose vinyama vyakofya vyamuthengere.+
10 Ŵalinda ŵake mbachibulumutira,+ palije uyo waŵikako mahara.+
Wose ni ntcheŵe zambuwu, zikubwentha* chara.+
Ŵakuŵeŵefuka na kugona pasi, ŵakutemwa kukonona.
11 Ni ntcheŵe zakusotoka na njara,
Ŵakukhuta chara.
Mbaliska ŵambura kupulikiska.+
Waliyose wakwenda nthowa yake.
Waliyose wa iwo wakupenja chandulo mu ukhuluku, wakuti:
12 “Zaninge, lekani nitoreko vinyo,
Tiyeni timwe betubetu chakumwa chakuloŵezga.+
Ndipo namachero kuzamuŵa nga ni muhanya uno, kweni kuluska apa.”
