12 Tsono abale ake anapita kukadyetsa ziweto za abambo awo ku Sekemu, 13 ndipo Israeli anati kwa Yosefe, “Tsono, ndikufuna kukutuma kwa abale ako.”
Iye anayankha nati, “Chabwino.”
14 Choncho anati kwa iye, “Pita ukaone ngati abale ako ali bwino. Ukaonenso nkhosa ngati zili bwino. Kenaka ubwere udzandiwuze.” Choncho Israeli anatuma Yosefe kuchokera ku chigwa cha Hebroni.

16 Iye anayankha, “Ndikufuna abale anga. Mungandiwuze kumene akudyetsa ziweto zawo?”
17 Munthuyo anayankha nati, “Anasamukako kuno. Ndinawamva akuti, ‘Tiyeni tipite ku Dotani.’ ”
Choncho Yosefe analondola abale ake ndipo anakawapeza ku Dotani. 18 Abale ake aja anamuonera patali. Ndipo asanafike nʼkomwe kumene kunali iwo kuja, anayamba kale kumupangira chiwembu choti amuphe.

21 Koma Rubeni atamva izi, anapulumutsa Yosefe. Iye anati kwa abale ake, “Ayi, tisamuphe, 22 tisakhetse magazi. Tiyeni timuponye mʼchitsime ku chipululu konkuno. Koma tisamuvulaze nʼkomwe. Rubeni ananena zonsezi kuti apulumutse Yosefe ndi kuti pambuyo pake akamupereke kwa abambo awo.”
23 Choncho Yosefe atafika kwa abale ake, iwo anamuvula mkanjo wake wamanja aatali uja umene anavala 24 ndipo anamutenga namuponya mʼchitsime chopanda madzi komanso mopanda chilichonse.
25 Atakhala pansi kuti adye chakudya, anatukula maso naona gulu la Aismaeli akubwera kuchokera ku Giliyadi. Ngamira zawo zinanyamula zonunkhiritsa bwino zakudya zamitundumitundu, ndipo zimenezi ankapita nazo ku Igupto.
26 Yuda anafunsa abale ake nati, “Kodi tidzapindula chiyani tikapha mʼbale wathuyu ndi kuphimbitsa magazi ake? 27 Bwanji timugulitse kwa Aismaeliwa, koma ife tisamuchite kanthu kalikonse. Ameneyu ndi mʼbale wathu thupi limodzi ndi ife.” Abale ake anavomereza zimenezi.
28 Amalonda ena a ku Midiyani ankadutsa pomwepo. Tsono abale ake a Yosefe anamutulutsa Yosefe uja mu chitsime chija ndipo anamugulitsa kwa Aismaeli aja pamtengo wa masekeli makumi awiri. Choncho anapita naye Yosefe ku Igupto.
29 Rubeni atabwerera ku chitsime kuja anapeza kuti Yosefe mulibe mʼchitsimemo. Pamenepo iye anangʼamba zovala zake 30 nabwerera kwa abale ake nati, “Mnyamata uja mulibemo! Nanga ndilowere kuti ine tsopano?”
31 Tsono anapha kamwana ka mbuzi, natenga mkanjo wa Yosefe ndi kuwunyika mʼmagazi ake. 32 Iwo anatenga mkanjo uja nabwerera nawo kwa abambo awo nati, “Ife tapeza mkanjowu. Tawuyangʼanitsitsani muone ngati uli wa mwana wanu.”
33 Iye anawuzindikira ndipo anati, “Ndi mkanjo wa mwana wanga umenewu! Nyama yakuthengo yolusa yamudya. Mosakayika, mwana wanga Yosefe wakhadzulidwa.”
34 Pamenepo Yakobo anangʼamba zovala zake, navala chisaka mʼchiwuno mwake. Iye analira maliro a mwana wake masiku ambiri. 35 Ngakhale kuti ana ake onse aamuna ndi aakazi anasonkhana kudzamutonthoza, iye anakana kutonthozedwa. Iye anati, “Ayi. Ndidzalira mpaka ndidzapite kwa mwana wanga ku manda.” Choncho Israeli anapitirirabe kulira mwana wake.
36 Amidiyani aja anagulitsa Yosefe kwa Potifara, mmodzi mwa nduna za Farao ku Igupto. Potifarayu anali mkulu wa asilikali olonda nyumba ya Farao.

Ndipo amasunga miyambo ina yambiri monga, kutsuka zikho, mitsuko ndi maketulo).

6 Iye anayankha kuti, “Yesaya ananena zoona pamene ananenera za inu achiphamaso; monga kunalembedwa kuti:
“Anthu awa amandilemekeza Ine ndi milomo yawo,
koma mitima yawo ili kutali ndi Ine.
7 Amandilambira Ine kwachabe;
ndi kuphunzitsa malamulo ndi malangizo a anthu.
8 Mwasiya malamulo a Mulungu ndipo mwagwiritsitsa miyambo ya anthu.”
9 Ndipo anawawuzanso kuti, “Inu muli ndi njira yabwino yokankhira kumbali malamulo a Mulungu kuti mukatsatire miyambo yanuyo! 10 Pakuti Mose anati, ‘Lemekeza abambo ako ndi amayi ako,’ ndipo, ‘aliyense amene atemberera abambo ake kapena amayi ake ayenera kuphedwa.’ 11 Koma inu mumati, ngati munthu anena kwa abambo ake kapena amayi ake kuti, ‘Thandizo lililonse mukanayenera kulandira kuchokera kwa ine ndi Korobani’ (kutanthauza kuti, mphatso yoperekedwa kwa Mulungu), 12 pamenepo inu simumalola kuti achitire kanthu kalikonse abambo kapena amayi ake. 13 Potero mumachepetsa mawu a Mulungu kukhala wopanda mphamvu ndi miyambo yanu imene mumapatsirana. Ndipo mumachita zinthu zina zambiri monga zimenezi.”
14 Yesu anayitananso gulu la anthu ndipo anati, “Tandimverani nonsenu, ndipo zindikirani izi. 15 Palibe kanthu kunja kwa munthu kamene kakalowa mwa iye kangamusandutse wodetsedwa. Koma zimene zituluka mwa munthu ndizo zimupanga kukhala wodetsedwa.” 16 (Ngati wina ali ndi makutu akumva amve).
17 Atalisiya gulu la anthu ndi kulowa mʼnyumba, ophunzira ake anamufunsa za fanizoli 18 Iye anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi nanunso simumvetsetsa? Kodi simukuona kuti palibe kanthu kamene kakalowa mwa munthu kochokera kunja kakhoza kumudetsa? 19 Pakuti sikalowa mu mtima wake koma mʼmimba mwake, ndipo kenaka kamatuluka kunja.” (Ndi mawu amenewa, Yesu anayeretsa zakudya zonse).
20 Anapitiriza kuti, “Chimene chichokera mwa munthu ndi chomwe chimamudetsa. 21 Pakuti kuchokera mʼkati mwa mitima ya anthu, mumatuluka maganizo oyipa, chiwerewere, kuba, kupha, chigololo, 22 dyera, nkhwidzi, chinyengo, machitidwe onyansa, kaduka, chipongwe, kudzikuza ndi kupusa. 23 Zoyipa zonsezi zimatuluka mʼkati ndipo zimadetsa munthu.”
Chikhulupiriro cha Mayi wa ku Siriya Fonisia
24 Yesu anachoka kumalo amenewo napita ku madera a Turo. Iye analowa mʼnyumba ndipo sanafune wina kuti adziwe zimenezi; komabe sanathe kudzibisa. 25 Kunena zoona, amayi amene kamwana kawo kakakazi kanali kogwidwa ndi mzimu woyipa, atangomva za Iye, anabwera nagwada pa mapazi ake. 26 Mayiyu anali Mhelene, wobadwira ku Fonisia wa ku Siriya. Anamupempha Yesu kuti atulutse chiwanda mwa mwana wake.
27 Iye anamuwuza kuti, “Choyamba asiye ana adye zimene akuzifuna, pakuti si kwabwino kutenga buledi wa ana ndi kuponyera agalu awo.”
28 Mayiyo anayankha kuti, “Inde Ambuye, koma ngakhale agalu amadya zomwe zimagwa pansi kuchokera pa tebulo la ana.”
29 Ndipo Iye anamuwuza kuti, “Chifukwa cha yankholi, ukhoza kupita; chiwanda chachoka mwa mwana wako wamkazi.”
30 Atapita kwawo anakapeza mwana wake aligone pa bedi, chiwanda chitatuluka.
Kuchiritsidwa kwa Munthu Wosamva ndi Wosayankhula
31 Ndipo Yesu anachoka ku dera la Turo nadutsa pakati pa Sidoni, kutsikira ku nyanja ya Galileya kupita ku dera la Dekapoli. 32 Kumeneko anthu ena anabweretsa kwa Iye munthu amene anali wosamva ndi wosayankhula, ndipo anamupempha kuti asanjike dzanja pa iye.
33 Atamutengera iye pambali, patali ndi gulu la anthu, Yesu analowetsa zala zake mʼmakutu a munthuyo. Kenaka anapaka malovu pachala ndi kukhudza lilime la munthuyo. 34 Iye anayangʼana kumwamba ndipo ndi mawu otsitsa moyo, anati kwa iye, “Efataa!” (Kutanthauza kuti, “Tsekuka!”) 35 Atachita izi, makutu a munthuyo anatsekuka komanso lilime lake linamasuka ndipo anayamba kuyankhula momveka bwino.
36 Yesu anawalamula kuti asawuze wina aliyense. Koma pamene anapitiriza kuwaletsa, iwo anapitiriza kuyankhula za izi. 37 Anthu anadabwa kwambiri. Iwo anati, “Wachita zonse bwino, ngakhale Iyenso atsekula makutu a osamva ndi osayankhula kuti ayankhule.”
Mawu a Yobu
3 Pambuyo pake Yobu anatsekula pakamwa pake nayamba kutemberera tsiku limene iyeyo anabadwa. 2 Ndipo Yobu anati:
3 “Tsiku limene ine ndinabadwa litembereredwe
ndi usiku umene ananena kuti, ‘Mwana wamwamuna wabadwa!’
4 Tsiku limenelo lisanduke mdima;
Mulungu wa kumwambako asalilabadirenso;
kuwala kusaonekenso pa tsikulo.
5 Mdima ndi mthunzi wa imfa zikhale pa tsiku limeneli;
mtambo uphimbe tsikuli;
mdima wandiweyani udetse kuwala kwake.
6 Usiku umenewo ukutidwe ndi mdima wandiweyani;
usawerengedwenso pamodzi ndi masiku a chaka,
kapena kukhala pa mwezi wina uliwonse.
7 Usiku umenewo usabweretse chilichonse chabwino;
kusamvekenso nthungululu za chikondwerero.
8 Odziwa kutemberera masiku alitemberere tsikulo,
iwo amene akonzekera kuwutsa Leviyatani.
9 Nyenyezi zake za mʼbandakucha zikhale mdima;
tsikulo liyembekezere kucha pachabe
ndipo lisaonenso kuwala koyamba kwa mʼbandakucha.
10 Pakuti tsiku limenelo ndiye ndinatuluka mʼmimba ya amayi anga
ndipo ndi limene linandionetsa zovuta.
11 “Bwanji ine sindinawonongeke pamene ndinkabadwa
ndi kufa pamene ndimatuluka mʼmimba?
12 Chifukwa chiyani panali mawondo wondilandirirapo
ndi mawere woti andiyamwitsepo?
13 Pakuti tsopano bwenzi ndili gone mwamtendere;
ndikanakhala nditagona tulo ndili pa mpumulo
14 pamodzi ndi mafumu ndi aphungu a dziko lapansi,
amene anadzimangira nyumba zikuluzikulu zimene tsopano ndi mabwinja,
15 pamodzi ndi olamulira amene anali ndi golide,
amene anadzaza nyumba zawo ndi siliva.
16 Kapena, bwanji sindinakwiriridwe pansi monga mwana wobadwa wakufa kale,
ngati khanda limene silinaone kuwala kwa dzuwa?
17 Ku mandako anthu oyipa sakhalanso pa mavuto,
ndipo kumeneko anthu otopa ali pa mpumulo.
18 A mʼndende kumeneko akusangalala ndi mtendere;
sakumvanso mawu ofuwula a kapitawo wa akapolo.
19 Anthu wamba ndi anthu apamwamba ali kumeneko,
ndipo kapolo ndi womasuka kwa mbuye wake.
20 “Chifukwa chiyani dzuwa limawalira iwo amene ali pa mavuto,
ndipo moyo umapatsidwa kwa owawidwa mtima,
21 kwa iwo amene amalakalaka imfa imene sibwera,
amene amayifunafuna imfayo kupambana chuma chobisika,
22 amene amakondwa ndi kusangalala
akamalowa mʼmanda?
23 Chifuwa chiyani moyo umaperekedwa kwa munthu
amene njira yake yabisika,
amene Mulungu wamuzinga ponseponse?
24 Mʼmalo moti ndidye, ndimalira,
ndi kubuwula kwanga nʼkosalekeza.
25 Chimene ndinkachiopa chandigwera;
chimene ndinkachita nacho mantha chandichitikira.
26 Ndilibe mtendere kapena bata,
ndilibe mpumulo, koma mavuto okhaokha.”
Chitsanzo cha Banja pa Mphamvu za Malamulo
7 Kodi simukudziwa abale kuti Malamulo ali ndi ulamuliro pa munthu pokhapokha ngati ali ndi moyo? Ine ndikuyankhula kwa anthu amene akudziwa Malamulo. 2 Mwachitsanzo, Malamulo amati mkazi wokwatiwa ndi womangidwa ndi lamulo kwa mwamuna wakeyo nthawi yonse pamene mwamuna wakeyo ali moyo. Koma ngati mwamuna wake amwalira, mkaziyo ndi womasulidwa ku lamulo la ukwati. 3 Koma ngati iye akwatiwa ndi mwamuna wina pamene mwamuna wake ali moyo, amatchedwa wachigololo. Koma ngati mwamuna wakeyo amwalira, mkaziyo amasuka ku lamulo ndipo si wachigololo, ngakhale kuti wakwatiwa ndi mwamuna wina.
4 Chimodzimodzi inunso, abale anga, munafa ku Malamulo kudzera mʼthupi la Khristu, kuti mukwatiwe ndi wina, ndi Iye amene anauka kwa akufa kuti tibalire Mulungu chipatso. 5 Pakuti pamene tinkalamulidwa ndi khalidwe lathu lauchimo, zilakolako zauchimo zimene Malamulo anaziwutsa zinkagwira ntchito mʼmatupi mwathu kotero kuti zinabala imfa. 6 Koma tsopano tamasulidwa ku Malamulowo pakuti tinafa ku zimene zinkatimanga, ndipo Mzimu Woyera akutithandiza kutumikira Mulungu mʼnjira yatsopano ndipo osati mʼnjira yakale yolembedwa.
Kulimbana ndi Mphamvu za Tchimo
7 Nanga ife tinene chiyani? Kodi Malamulo ndi oyipa? Ayi. Nʼkosatheka! Kunena zoona, popanda Malamulo, ine sindikanazindikira tchimo. Pakuti sindikanadziwa kuti kusirira ndi tchimo ngati Malamulo sakananena kuti, “Usasirire.” 8 Koma chifukwa cha Malamulo uchimo unapeza mwayi owutsa mʼkati mwanga khalidwe lililonse la kusirira. Pakuti pakanapanda Malamulo, uchimo ukanakhala wopanda mphamvu. 9 Nthawi ina ndinali ndi moyo popanda Malamulo. Koma nditayamba kudziwa Malamulo, pomwepo uchimo unayamba kuphuka, 10 ndipo ine ndinafa. Ine ndinazindikira kuti Malamulo omwe ankayenera kubweretsa moyo anabweretsa imfa.
11 Pakuti uchimo unapeza mwayi chifukwa cha Malamulo ndipo kudzera mʼMalamulowo, unandinyenga ndi kundiyika mu imfa. 12 Choncho lamulo ndi loyera, lolungama ndi labwino. 13 Kodi chomwe ndi chabwino tsopano chinasanduka imfa kwa ine? Si choncho ayi! Koma kuti uchimo uzindikirike kuti ndi uchimo unabala imfa mwa ine kudzera mu chomwe chinali chabwino, kotero kuti kudzera mu lamulo uchimo ukhale oyipa kopitirira.
14 Ife tikudziwa kuti Malamulo ndi auzimu; koma ine ndine munthu wofowoka chabe, wogulitsidwa ngati kapolo ku uchimo. 15 Ine sindizindikira zimene ndimachita. Pakuti zimene ndimafuna kuchita sindizichita koma zimene ndimadana nazo ndi zimene ndimazichita. 16 Ndipo ngati ndimachita zimene sindimafuna kuzichita, ndiye kuti ndikuvomereza kuti lamulo ndi labwino. 17 Monga mmene zililimu, si inenso mwini amene ndimazichita zimenezi, koma tchimo limene lili mʼkati mwanga. 18 Ine ndikudziwa kuti mwa ine mulibe kanthu kabwino, ndiye kuti mʼthupi langa lauchimo. Pakuti ndimafuna kuchita zabwino, koma ndimalephera kuzichita. 19 Ine sindichita zabwino zimene ndimafuna koma ndimachita zonyansa zimene sindikuzifuna. 20 Tsopano ngati ine ndimachita zimene sindikuzifuna, si inenso amene ndimazichita, koma ndi tchimo limene lili mʼkati mwanga.
21 Tsono ndapeza kuti lamuloli likugwira ntchito. Ngakhale ndimafuna kuchita zabwino, zoyipa zili nane pomwepo. 22 Mtima wanga umakondwera ndi lamulo la Mulungu. 23 Koma mʼkati mwanga ndimaona lamulo lina likugwira ntchito kulimbana ndi zomwe mtima wanga umavomereza. Lamulo limenelo landisandutsa wamʼndende walamulo la uchimo lomwe likugwira ntchito mʼkati mwa ziwalo zanga. 24 Kalanga ine! Adzandipulumutsa ndani ku thupi la imfali? 25 Atamandike Mulungu, amene amandipulumutsa kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu Ambuye athu!
Kotero tsono, ineyo ndi mtima wanga ndimatumikira lamulo la Mulungu, koma ndi thupi langa ndimatumikira lamulo la uchimo.
