Za Yerusalemu ndi Samariya
23 Yehova anandiyankhula nati: 2 “Iwe mwana wa munthu, panali atsikana awiri ana a mayi mmodzi. 3 Iwo ankachita za chiwerewere ku Igupto. Za chiwerewerezo anayamba ali achichepere. Kumeneko anthu ankangowasisita pa chifuwa ndi kuwagwiragwira mawere awo aja. 4 Wamkulu dzina lake anali Ohola, ndipo mngʼono wakeyo anali Oholiba. Ine ndinawakwatira ndipo anabereka ana aamuna ndi ana aakazi. Ohola ndiye Samariya, ndipo Yerusalemu ndiye Oholiba.
5 “Ohola anachita zachiwerewere ngakhale anali mkazi wanga; ndipo iye anakangamira abwenzi ake a ku Asiriya. 6 Amenewo anali asilikali ovala zibakuwa zamlangali, abwanamkubwa ndiponso atsogoleri a nkhondo. Onsewo anali anyamata osiririka ndipo ankakwera pa akavalo. 7 Ohola anachita zachiwerewere ndi onsewa, anthu otchuka a ku Asiriya. Iye anadziyipitsa ndi mafano a munthu aliyense amene anagona naye. 8 Iye sanaleke za chiwerewere zimene anaziphunzira ku Igupto. Paja akanali mtsikana anyamata ankagona naye. Iwo ankamusisita mawere akanali anthete nachita naye zachiwerewere.
9 “Nʼchifukwa chake Ine ndinamupereka kwa achikondi ake, Asiriya, amene iye ankawalakalaka. 10 Iwowa anamuvula, namulanda ana ake aamuna ndi aakazi ndipo anamupha ndi lupanga. Ndipo atalangidwa choncho, iye anasanduka chinthu chonyozeka pakati pa akazi.
11 “Mphwake Oholiba anaona zimenezi natengerako. Koma iye anachita zachiwerewere kuposa mkulu wake. 12 Iyenso anakangamira Asiriya, abwanamkubwa, olamulira asilikali, ankhondo ovala zovala zonse za nkhondo ndi okwera pa akavalo. Onsewa anali anyamata osiririka. 13 Ndinaona kuti iyenso anadziyipitsa; ndipo onse awiriwo anatsata njira imodzi.
14 “Koma Oholiba uja anachita chigololo kopitirira mkulu wake. Iye anaona zithunzi za amuna pa khoma, zithunzi za Ababuloni zolembedwa ndi inki yofiira, 15 atamanga malamba mʼchiwuno mwawo ndi kuvala nduwira pa mitu yawo. Onse amaoneka ngati atsogoleri a magaleta a Ababuloni, mbadwa za ku Kaldeya. 16 Oholiba atangowaona, anawalakalaka ndipo anatuma amithenga ku Kaldeya kukawayitana. 17 Ndipo Ababuloni anabwera nʼkudzagona naye. Choncho mwa chilakolako chawo anamuyipitsa. Koma atamuyipitsa choncho, iye ananyansidwa nawo. 18 Iye atachita chiwerewere chake poyera ndi kuonetsa umaliseche wake, Ine ndinamuchokera monyansidwa monga mmene ndinachitira ndi mʼbale wake. 19 Koma anachitabe zachiwerewere osalekeza. Ankakumbukira masiku a ubwana wake pamene ankachita za chiwerewere mʼdziko la Igupto. 20 Kumeneko iye ankalakalaka zibwenzi zake, amene ziwalo zawo zinali ngati za abulu ndipo kutentha kwawo kunali ngati kwa akavalo. 21 Motero, iwe Oholiba unafuna kuchitanso zadama monga unkachitira ku Igupto pamene unali mtsikana. Nthawi imene ija ankakusisita pa chifuwa ndi kugwiragwira mawere ako osagwa aja.
22 “Tsono iwe Oholiba, Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Ndidzakudzutsira zibwenzi zako zimene unkanyansidwa nazo zija kuti zilimbane nawe. Ndidzaziyitana kuti zibwere kuchokera mbali zonse. 23 Ndidzayitana anthu a ku Babuloni ndi Akaldeya onse, anthu a ku Pekodi, Sowa ndi Kowa pamodzi ndi Asiriya onse. Onsewa ndi amuna osiririka, abwanamkubwa, atsogoleri a ankhondo, oyenda pa magaleta, anthu a maudindo akuluakulu. Onsewa ndi okwera akavalo. 24 Iwo adzabwera kudzalimbana nawe ndi zida za nkhondo, magaleta ndi ngolo, pamodzi ndi anthu ambiri. Adzakuzinga mbali zonse atavala zishango zankhondo ndi zipewa zankhondo. Ndidzakupereka kwa iwo kuti akulange ndipo adzakulanga monga momwe adzafunire. 25 Ndidzaonetsa mkwiyo wanga pa iwe ndipo iwo adzakulanga iwe mwankhanza. Adzadula mphuno zanu ndi makutu anu, ndipo amene adzatsalira mwa iwe adzaphedwa ndi lupanga. Iwo adzakulanda ana ako aamuna ndi aakazi ndipo amene adzatsalira adzaphedwa ndi moto. 26 Adzakuvulaninso zovala zanu ndikukulandani zodzikongoletsera zanu zamtengowapatali. 27 Motero ndidzathetsa zonyansa zako ndi zachigololo zomwe unaziyamba ku Igupto. Choncho sudzalakalaka za ku Igupto kapena kuzikumbukiranso.
28 “Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Ndikukupereka mʼmanja mwa amene amadana nawe, kwa iwo amene unawafulatira moyipidwa nawo. 29 Adzachita nawe mwachidani. Adzakulanda zonse zimene unagwirira ntchito. Adzakusiya wamaliseche ndiponso wausiwa. Kuyipa kwa makhalidwe ako achiwerewere kudzakhala pammbalambanda. Zonyansa zako ndi chiwerewere chako, 30 zabweretsa izi pa iwe chifukwa unachita zonyansa ndi anthu a mitundu ndi kudziyipitsa ndi mafano awo. 31 Unatsata zochita za mkulu wako; choncho Ine ndidzayika chikho cha chilango chake mʼdzanja lako.
32 “Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti:
“Udzamwera chikho cha mkulu wako,
chikho chachikulu ndi chakuya;
anthu adzakuseka ndi kukunyoza,
pakuti chikhocho ndi chodzaza kwambiri.
33 Udzaledzera ndipo mtima wako udzadzaza ndi chisoni.
Chimenechi ndi chikho chachiwonongeko ndi chipasupasu,
chikho cha mkulu wako Samariya.
34 Udzamwa chikhocho mpaka kugugudiza.
Tsono udzaphwanyaphwanya chikhocho
ndipo udzangʼamba mawere ako ndi zigoba zake.
Ine ndayankhula, akutero Ambuye Yehova.
35 “Chifukwa chake, Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: Popeza wandiyiwala Ine ndi kundifulatira, chomwecho uyenera kulangidwa chifukwa cha zonyansa zako ndi chiwerewere chako.”
36 Yehova anandifunsa kuti, “Iwe mwana wa munthu, kodi udzaweruza Ohola ndi Oholiba? Tsono uwayimbe mlandu chifukwa cha machitidwe awo onyansa. 37 Iwo achita chigololo ndipo anapha anthu. Anachita chigololo popembedza mafano awo. Ngakhale ana amene anandiberekera Ine anawapereka kwa mafanowo ngati chakudya chawo. 38 Anachitanso izi: Iwo anayipitsa malo anga opatulika ndi kudetsa masabata anga. 39 Atapereka ana awo kwa mafano, tsiku lomwelo anakalowanso mʼNyumba yanga yopatulika ndi kuyipitsamo. Izi ndi zimene anachita mʼNyumba mwanga.
40 “Iwo anatuma amithenga kukayitana amuna a ku mayiko akutali. Anthuwo atabwera, abale awiri aja anasambasamba, kudzola utoto wodzikometsera kumaso, kenaka ndi kuvala zovala zamakaka. 41 Anakhala pa bedi lokongola ndipo patsogolo pawo panali tebulo pamene munayikapo lubani ndi mafuta. Zonse zowapatsa Ine.
42 “Mfuwu wa chigulu cha anthu unamveka. Anthu oledzera ochokera ku chipululu anabwera pamodzi ndi anthu wamba ndipo anaveka akaziwo zibangiri kumanja ndi zipewa zaufumu zokongola ku mutu. 43 Ndipo ine ndinati za mkazi wotheratu ndi chigololoyo, ‘Tsono asiyeni kuti achite naye monga wachiwerewere, pakuti ichi ndi chimene iye ali basi.’ 44 Tsono anapita kwa iwo monga mmene anthu amapitira kwa mkazi wadama. Momwemo anapita kwa Ohola ndi kwa Oholiba kukachita nawo zadama. 45 Koma anthu olungama adzawazenga anthuwa mlandu wa chigololo ndi wa kupha anthu. Ndi iwodi anthu achigololo ndiponso mʼmanja mwawo muli magazi.
46 “Ambuye Yehova akuti: Itanitsani chigulu cha anthu kuti chidzawalange ndi kulanda chuma chawo. 47 Anthuwo adzawaponye miyala akazi awiriwo ndi kuwatema ndi malupanga awo. Ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi adzawaphe ndi kutentha nyumba zawo.
48 “Motero Ine ndidzathetsa zachigololo mʼdzikomo, ndipo akazi onse adzatengapo phunziro kuti asadzachite zachigololo monga za iwowo. 49 Ndidzawalanga chifukwa cha ntchito zawo za dama ndipo adzazunzika chifukwa cha tchimo lawo lopembedza mafano. Choncho adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Ambuye Yehova.”
Mʼphika Wophikira
24 Pa tsiku lakhumi la mwezi wakhumi chaka chachisanu ndi chinayi, Yehova anandiyankhula kuti: 2 “Iwe mwana wa munthu lemba dzina la tsiku lalero, lero lomwe lino, chifukwa mfumu ya Babuloni yazungulira Yerusalemu lero lino. 3 Uwaphere mwambi anthu owukirawa ndi kuwawuza kuti: ‘Ambuye Yehova akuti,
“ ‘Ikani mʼphika pa moto,
ndipo mu mʼphikamo muthiremo madzi.
4 Mu mʼphikamo muyikemo nthuli za nyama,
nthuli zonse zabwino kwambiri za mwendo wathako ndi mwendo wamwamba.
Mudzadzemo mafupa abwino kwambiri.
5 Pa gulu la nkhosa musankhepo nkhosa yabwino kwambiri.
Muyike nkhuni pansi pa mʼphikawo.
Madzi awire.
Kenaka muphike nyamayo pamodzi ndi mafupa omwe.’
6 “ ‘Nʼchifukwa chake, Ambuye Yehova akuti,
“ ‘Tsoka kwa mzinda wokhetsa magazi,
tsoka kwa mʼphika wadzimbiri;
dzimbiri lake losachoka!
Mutulutsemo nthuli imodzimodzi
osasankhulapo.
7 “ ‘Paja magazi amene anakhetsa akanali pakati pake mu mzindamo.
Iye awakhuthulira pa thanthwe losalala.
Sanawakhutulire pa dothi
kuopa kuti fumbi lingawafotsere.
8 Ndinasiya magaziwo pa mwala wosalala
kuti asafotseredwe ndi fumbi
chifukwa ndinafuna kuonetsa mkwiyo wanga ndi kulipsira.
9 “ ‘Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti:
“ ‘Tsoka kwa mzinda wokhetsa magazi!
Inenso, ndidzawunjika mulu waukulu wa nkhuni.
10 Choncho wonjeza nkhuni
ndipo muyatse moto.
Phikani nyamayo bwinobwino,
muthiremo zokometsera,
mutsanule msuzi, ndipo mupsereze mafupawo.
11 Tsono muyike pa makala mʼphika wopanda kanthuwo
mpaka utenthe kuchita kuti psuu
kuti zonyansa zake zisungunuke
ndi kuti dzimbiri lake lichoke.
12 Koma mʼphikawo walephereka kuyeretsedwa.
Dzimbiri lake linalowerera silingatheke kuchoka
ngakhale ndi moto womwe.
13 “ ‘Tsono dzimbiri limeneli ndi zilakolako za dama lako. Pakuti ine ndinayesa kukutsuka koma iwe sunayere, ndipo sudzayeranso mpaka ukali wanga utakwaniratu pa iwe.
14 “ ‘Ine Yehova ndayankhula. Zimenezi zikubwera ndipo ndidzazichitadi. Sindidzabwerera mʼmbuyo. Sindidzakulekerera kapena kukuchitira chifundo. Ndidzakulanga molingana ndi makhalidwe ndi machitidwe ako, akutero Ambuye Yehova.’ ”
Imfa ya Mkazi wa Ezekieli
15 Yehova anandiyankhula kuti: 16 “Iwe mwana wa munthu, Ine ndikulanda mwadzidzidzi mkazi amene amakukomera mʼmaso kwambiri. Koma usadandaule, usalire kapena kukhetsa misozi. 17 Ubuwule koma mwakachetechete. Usamulire wakufayo. Uvale nduwira yako ndithu, nsapato zakonso usavule. Usaphimbe nkhope kapena kudya chakudya cha anamfedwa.”
18 Choncho ndinayankhula ndi anthu mmawa, ndipo madzulo mkazi wanga anamwalira. Mmawa mwake ndinachita monga momwe anandilamulira.
19 Ndipo anthu anandifunsa kuti, “Kodi sutifotokozera tanthauzo la zimene ukuchitazi?”
20 Ndinawayankha kuti, “Yehova anandipatsa uthenga wakuti, 21 ‘Awuze Aisraeli kuti: Ine Ambuye Yehova ndikuti: ndidzayipitsa Nyumba yanga yopatulika, nyumba imene mwakhala mukuyinyadira. Mumakondwa kwambiri poyiona, ndipo mumayikonda ndi mtima onse. Ana aamuna ndi aakazi amene munawasiya mʼmbuyo adzaphedwa ndi lupanga. 22 Ndipo mudzachita monga ndachitira inemu. Inu simudzaphimba nkhope zanu kapena kudya chakudya cha anamfedwa. 23 Mudzavala nduwira zanu kumutu ndi nsapato zanu ku mapazi anu. Simudzabuma maliro kapena kukhetsa misozi koma mudzavutika kwambiri chifukwa cha machimo anu ndipo mudzabuwula pakati panu. 24 Ine Ezekieli ndidzakhala chitsanzo chanu. Mudzachita monga momwe ndachitira. Izi zikadzachitika, akutero Yehova, ndipo mudzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse.’
25 “Ndipo Yehova anandiyankhula nati: Iwe mwana wa munthu, tsiku lina ndidzawachotsera anthuwa linga lawo limene ankakondwerera kukongola kwake, limene linkawakomera mʼmaso mwawo, limenenso anayikapo mtima wawo kwambiri. Ndidzawachotsera ana awo aamuna ndi aakazi. 26 Pa tsiku limenelo wothawa nkhondo adzabwera kudzakuwuzani zimenezo. 27 Pa tsiku limenelo pakamwa pako padzatsekuka. Udzatha kuyankhula naye ndipo sudzakhalanso chete. Motero udzakhala chizindikiro kwa iwo, ndipo iwo adzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.”
