Yesaya
50 Yehova wakuti:
“Kasi yili nkhu kalata yachipati+ ya anyinamwe, awo nili kuŵachimbizga?
Panji nili kumuguliskani kwa wangongoli nju?
Wonani, mukaguliskika chifukwa cha mphuvya zinu,+
Ndipo anyinamwe ŵali kuchimbizgika chifukwa cha maubudi ghinu.+
2 Ipo chifukwa wuli apo nkhizanga nkhasanga munthu chara?
Chifukwa wuli pakaŵavya wakuzgora apo nkhachema?+
Kasi woko lane ndifupi kuti litondeke kuwombora,
Panji ine nilije nkhongono zakuthaskira?+
Somba zikuvunda chifukwa cha kusoŵa maji,
Ndipo zikufwa chifukwa cha nyota.
3 Nkhuvwalika machanya na chisi cha bii,+
Ndipo nkhughadikiska chigudulu.”
Wakuniwuska mulenji na mulenji.
Wakuwuska khutu lane kuti nipulike nga ngwakusambira.+
Nkhalazgira kunyake yayi.+
6 Nkhapelekera muwongo wane ku awo ŵakunitimba,
Na matama ghane ku awo ŵakukwenyura mwembe.
Nkhabisa chara chisko chane ku soni na kuthunyirika mata.+
7 Kweni Fumu Yikuru Yehova yinovwirenge.+
Lekani nikhozgekenge soni chara.
Lekani nimika chisko chane nga ni libwe la gwaa!+
Ndipo nkhumanya kuti nilengeskekenge chara.
8 Uyo wakunipima murunji wali pafupi.
Ni njani wangalimbana nane?+
Tiyeni tiyimilire pamoza.
Ni njani wali nane na kafukwa?
Wize pera.
9 Wonani, Fumu Yikuru Yehova yinovwirenge.
Ni njani wanipenge mulandu?
Wonani, wose ŵatchujukenge nga ntchakuvwara,
Chidoyo chiŵaryenge.
10 Ni njani pakati pinu uyo wakopa Yehova,
Na kupulikira lizgu la muteŵeti wake?+
Ni njani wakwenda mu mdima bii, kwambura ungweru?
Wathembe zina la Yehova na kuyegamira kwa* Chiuta wake.
11 “Wonani, mose imwe mukubuska moto,
Na kuŵaliska mbaliŵali muchanya,
Mwende mu ungweru wa moto winu,
Mu mbaliŵali izo mukuŵaliska.
Ichi ndicho mupokerenge kufuma mu woko lane:
Mugonenge pasi mu ulwilwi ukuru.
