48 Patapita kanthawi Yosefe anawuzidwa kuti, “Abambo ako akudwala.” Choncho anatenga ana ake awiri aja Manase ndi Efereimu ndi kupita nawo kwa Yakobo. 2 Yakobo atawuzidwa kuti, “Mwana wanu Yosefe wabwera,” Israeli anadzilimbitsa nadzuka kukhala tsonga pa bedi pake.
3 Yakobo anati kwa Yosefe, “Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse anandionekera ku Luzi mʼdziko la Kanaani, ndipo anandidalitsa, 4 nati kwa ine, ‘Ndidzakupatsa ana ambiri ndipo zidzukulu zako zidzasanduka mitundu yambiri ya anthu. Ndidzapereka dziko ili kwa zidzukulu zako zobwera pambuyo pako kuti likhale lawo mpaka muyaya.’
5 “Tsopano ana ako aamuna awiri amene anabadwa ine ndisanabwere kuno adzakhala ana anga. Efereimu ndi Manase adzakhala anga monga mmene alili Rubeni ndi Simeoni. 6 Koma amene ati adzabadwe pambuyo pa iwowa adzakhala ako ndipo cholowa chawo chidzadziwika ndi mayina a abale awo. 7 Pamene ndimabwerera kuchoka ku Parani, mwachisoni Rakele, amayi ako anamwalira mʼdziko la Kanaani, tikanali mʼnjira, mtunda wokafika ku Efurata ukanalipo. Ndipo ndinawayika kumeneko mʼmphepete mwa msewu wa ku Efurata” (amene ndi Betelehemu).
8 Israeli ataona ana a Yosefe anafunsa kuti, “Anyamatawa ndi a yani?”
9 Yosefe anati kwa abambo ake, “Awa ndi ana anga amene Mulungu wandipatsa kuno.”
Ndipo Israeli anati, “Bwera nawo kuno kuti ndiwadalitse.”
10 Koma maso a Israeli anali ofowoka chifukwa cha kukalamba moti sankaona nʼkomwe. Tsono Yosefe anabwera nawo ana ake aja pafupi ndi abambo ake ndipo abambo ake anawapsompsona nawakumbatira.
11 Israeli anati kwa Yosefe, “Ine sindinali kuyembekeza kuti nʼkudzaonanso nkhope yako, ndipo tsopano Mulungu wandilola kuti ndionenso ngakhale ana ako.”
12 Tsono Yosefe anawachotsa ana aja pa mawondo a Israeli ndipo anamuweramira nkhope pansi. 13 Yosefe anawagwira ana onse awiri padzanja, Efereimu ku dzanja lake lamanja kulunjika dzanja lamanzere la Israeli ndipo Manase ku dzanja lamanzere kulunjikitsa dzanja lamanja la Israeli, ndipo anawayandikiza kwa Yakobo. 14 Koma Israeli anapinganitsa mikono motero kuti anayika dzanja lake lamanja pamutu pa Efereimu ngakhale kuti iyeyo anali wamngʼono ndi dzanja lake lakumanzere analisanjika pamutu pa Manase ngakhale kuti iyeyu ndiye anali mwana woyamba.
15 Kenaka anadalitsa Yosefe nati,
“Mulungu amene makolo anga
Abrahamu ndi Isake anamutumikira,
Mulungu amene wakhala ali mʼbusa wanga
moyo wanga wonse kufikira lero,
16 mngelo amene wandipulumutsa ine ku zovuta zonse,
ameneyo adalitse anyamata awa.
Kudzera mwa iwowa
dzina langa ndi mayina a makolo anga, Abrahamu ndi Isake, adzamveka.
Iwowa adzakhala ndi ana ambiri nadzasanduka mtundu waukulu
pa dziko lapansi.”
17 Yosefe ataona kuti abambo ake ayika dzanja lamanja pa Efereimu, sanakondwere. Choncho anagwira dzanja la abambo ake kuti alichotse pamutu pa Efereimu ndi kuliyika pamutu pa Manase, 18 nati kwa abambo ake, “Ayi, abambo anga, uyu ndiye woyamba kubadwa, ikani dzanja lanu lamanja pamutu pake.”
19 Koma abambo ake anakana nati, “Ndikudziwa, mwana wanga, ndikudziwa. Adzukulu a iyeyunso adzakhala mtundu waukulu. Komabe mʼbale wake wamngʼonoyu adzakhala wamkulu kuposa iye, ndipo zidzukulu zake zidzakhala mitundu yayikulu ya anthu.” 20 Tsono iye anawadalitsa tsiku limenelo nati,
“Aisraeli adzagwiritsa ntchito dzina lanu podalitsa nadzati:
Mulungu akudalitseni monga Efereimu ndi Manase.”
Choncho anayika Efereimu patsogolo pa Manase.
21 Kenaka Israeli anati kwa Yosefe, “Ine ndatsala pangʼono kufa, koma Mulungu adzakhala ndipo adzakutenganinso kubwerera nanu ku dziko la makolo anu. 22 Ndiponso iwe wekha ndikupatsa moposera abale ako, malo woonjezera, Sekemu, malo amene ndinalanda kwa Aamori ndi lupanga ndi uta wanga.”

Nyimbo ya Mariya
46 Ndipo Mariya anati:
“Moyo wanga ulemekeza Ambuye.
47 Ndipo mzimu wanga ukondwera mwa Mulungu Mpulumutsi wanga,
48 pakuti wakumbukira

Kuyambira tsopano mibado yonse idzanditcha wodala,

koma anachotsa olemera wopanda kanthu.
54 Iye anathandiza mtumiki wake Israeli,

55 Kwa Abrahamu ndi zidzukulu zake ku nthawi zonse
monga ananena kwa makolo athu.”
56 Mariya anakhala ndi Elizabeti pafupifupi miyezi itatu ndipo kenaka anabwerera kwawo.

57 Itakwana nthawi yoti Elizabeti abereke, anabereka mwana wamwamuna. 58 Anansi ndi abale ake anamva kuti Ambuye anamuchitira chifundo chachikulu ndipo anakondwera naye pamodzi.
59 Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chitatu anabwera ndi mwana kuti adzachitidwe mdulidwe, ndipo anafuna kumupatsa dzina la abambo ake Zakariya, 60 koma amayi ake anayankhula nati, “Ayi, atchulidwe kuti Yohane.”
61 Iwo anati kwa iye, “Palibe mmodzi mwa abale ake amene ali ndi dzina limeneli.”
62 Pamenepo anapanga zizindikiro kwa abambo ake kuti adziwe dzina limene akanakonda kumutcha mwanayo. 63 Iye anapempha poti alembepo, ndipo chodabwitsa kwa aliyense analemba kuti, “Dzina lake ndi Yohane.” 64 Nthawi yomweyo pakamwa pake panatsekuka ndi lilime lake linamasuka ndipo anayamba kuyankhula, nayamika Mulungu. 65 Anansi onse anachita mantha kwambiri, ndipo ku madera onse a kumapiri a Yudeya, anthu anayankhula zinthu zonsezi. 66 Aliyense amene anamva izi anadabwa nazo nafunsa kuti, “Kodi mwana uyu adzakhala wotani?” Pakuti dzanja la Ambuye lili pa iye.
Nyimbo ya Zakariya
67 Abambo ake, Zakariya, anadzazidwa ndi Mzimu Woyera ndipo ananenera kuti,
68 “Alemekezeke Ambuye, Mulungu wa Israeli
chifukwa wabwera ndi kuwombola anthu ake.
69 Iye wakweza nyanga yachipulumutso kwa ife
mu nyumba ya mtumiki wake Davide.
70 (Monga mmene ananenera kudzera mwa aneneri oyera),
71 chipulumutso kuchoka kwa adani athu
ndi kuchoka mʼdzanja la onse otida,
72 kuonetsa chifundo kwa makolo athu
ndi kukumbukira pangano lake loyera,
73 lumbiro limene analumbira kwa kholo lathu Abrahamu:
74 kutilanditsa ife mʼdzanja la adani athu,
ndi kutipanga ife timutumikire Iye mopanda mantha,
75 mʼchiyero ndi mʼchilungamo masiku athu onse.
76 “Ndipo iwe mwana wanga udzatchedwa mneneri wa Wammwambamwamba;
pakuti udzapita patsogolo pa Ambuye kukonza njira yake,
77 kupatsa anthu ake chidziwitso cha chipulumutso

78 chifukwa cha chifundo chachikulu cha Mulungu wathu,
ndipo kuwala kwa dzuwa kudzafikira ife kuchokera kumwamba,
79 kuwalira iwo okhala mu mdima
ndi mu mthunzi wa imfa,
kutsogolera mapazi athu mu njira yamtendere.”
80 Ndipo mwanayo anakula nakhala wamphamvu mu mzimu; ndipo anakhala ku chipululu mpaka pamene anaonekera poyera mu Israeli.
14 “Munthu wobadwa mwa amayi
amakhala masiku owerengeka ndipo ndi odzaza ndi mavuto okhaokha.
2 Amaphuka ngati duwa ndipo kenaka amafota;
amathawa ngati mthunzi ndipo sakhalitsa.
3 Kodi munthu wotereyo nʼkumuyangʼanitsitsa?
Kodi mungamubweretse pamaso panu kuti mumuzenge mlandu?
4 Ndani angatulutse chabwino mʼchoyipa?
Palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe!
5 Masiku a munthu ndi odziwikiratu;
munakhazikitsa chiwerengero cha miyezi yake
ndipo munamulembera malire amene sangathe kuwalumpha.
6 Choncho Inu mumufulatire ndipo mumuleke apumule
kufikira atakondwera nawo moyo ngati munthu waganyu.
7 “Mtengo uli nacho chiyembekezo:
ngati wadulidwa, udzaphukiranso
ndipo nthambi zake sizidzaleka kuphukira.
8 Mizu yake ingathe kukalamba mʼnthaka
ndipo chitsa chake nʼkuwola pa dothi,
9 koma pamene chinyontho chafika udzaphukira
ndipo udzaphuka nthambi ngati mtengo wanthete.
10 Koma munthu amafa nayikidwa mʼmanda,
amapuma mpweya wotsiriza ndipo kutha kwake nʼkomweko.
11 Monga madzi amaphwera mʼnyanja
kapena monga mtsinje umaphwera nuwuma,
12 momwemonso munthu amagona ndipo sadzukanso;
mpaka zamlengalenga zidzathe, anthu sadzauka
kapena kudzutsidwa ku tulo tawo.
13 “Aa, Inu mukanangondibisa mʼmanda
ndi kundiphimba kuti ndisaoneke mpaka mkwiyo wanu utapita!
Achikhala munandiyikira nthawi,
kuti pambuyo pake mundikumbukirenso.
14 Munthu akafa, kodi adzakhalanso ndi moyo?
Masiku anga onse a moyo wovutikawu
ndidzadikira mpaka itafika nthawi yomasulidwa.
15 Inu mudzandiyitane ndipo ndidzakuyankhani;
inu mudzafunitsitsa kuona cholengedwa chimene munachipanga ndi manja anu.
16 Ndithudi pamenepo mudzayangʼana mayendedwe anga
koma simudzalondola tchimo langa.
17 Zolakwa zanga zidzakulungidwa mʼthumba;
inu mudzaphimba tchimo langa.
18 “Koma monga phiri limakokolokera ndi kuswekasweka
ndipo monga thanthwe limasunthira kuchoka pa malo ake,
19 monganso madzi oyenda amaperesera miyala
ndipo madzi othamanga amakokololera nthaka,
momwemonso Inu mumawononga chiyembekezo cha munthu.
20 Inu mumamugonjetsa kamodzinʼkamodzi ndipo munthuyo nʼkutheratu;
Inu mumasintha maonekedwe a nkhope yake ndipo mumamutaya kutali.
21 Ana ake akamalemekezedwa, iyeyo sazidziwa zimenezo;
akamachititsidwa manyazi iye saziona zimenezo.
22 Iye amangomva zowawa za mʼthupi lake
ndipo amangodzilirira yekha mwini wakeyo.”
2 Pamene ndinabwera kwa inu, abale, sindinabwere ndi luntha lodziwa kuyankhula kapena nzeru zapamwamba pamene ndinachitira umboni chinsinsi cha Mulungu. 2 Pakuti ndinatsimikiza pamene ndinali ndi inu kuti ndisadziwe kanthu kena kupatula Yesu Khristu wopachikidwayo. 3 Ndinabwera kwa inu wofowoka ndi wamantha, ndiponso wonjenjemera kwambiri. 4 Uthenga ndi ulaliki wanga sunali wa mawu anzeru ndi onyengerera koma woonetsa mphamvu za Mzimu, 5 kuti chikhulupiriro chanu chisatsamire pa nzeru ya anthu koma pa mphamvu za Mulungu.
Nzeru Yochokera kwa Mzimu
6 Komabe ife timayankhula uthenga wa nzeru kwa okhwima, koma osati ndi nzeru ya mʼbado uno kapena ya olamula a mʼbado uno, amene mphamvu yawo ikutha. 7 Ayi, ife timayankhula za nzeru yobisika ya Mulungu, nzeru imene inabisidwa ndipo imene Mulungu anatikonzera mu ulemerero wathu isanayambe nthawi. 8 Palibe olamulira aliyense wa mʼbado uno amene anamumvetsetsa popeza anakamumvetsetsa sakanamupachika Ambuye wa ulemerero. 9 Komabe monga zalembedwa kuti,
“Palibe diso linaona,
palibe khutu linamva,
palibe amene anaganizira,
zimene Mulungu anakonzera amene amukonda”
10 koma Mulungu waululira ife mwa Mzimu wake.
Mzimu amafufuza zinthu zonse, ndi zozama za Mulungu zomwe. 11 Kodi ndani mwa anthu angadziwe maganizo a munthu wina, kupatula mzimu wa munthuyo wokhala mʼkati mwake? Chimodzimodzinso palibe amene adziwa maganizo a Mulungu kupatula Mzimu wa Mulunguyo. 12 Mzimu amene tinalandira ife si wa dziko lapansi koma Mzimu wochokera kwa Mulungu wotipatsa ife mwaulere. 13 Izi ndi zimene timayankhula osati mʼmawu wophunzitsidwa ndi nzeru za munthu koma mʼmawu wophunzitsidwa ndi Mzimu, kufotokozera zoonadi zauzimu mʼmawu auzimu. 14 Munthu wopanda Mzimu savomereza zinthu zimene zichokera kwa Mzimu wa Mulungu, popeza ndi zopusa kwa iyeyo, ndipo sangazimvetsetse chifukwa zimazindikirika mwa Mzimu. 15 Munthu wauzimu amaweruza pa zinthu zonse, koma iye mwini saweruzidwa ndi munthu aliyense. 16 Pakuti
“Ndani anadziwa malingaliro a Ambuye,
kuti akhoza kumulangiza Iye.”
Koma tili nawo mtima wa Khristu.
