Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
Kwa mtsogoleri wa mayimbidwe. Salimo la Davide.
20 Yehova akuyankhe pamene uli pa msautso;
dzina la Mulungu wa Yakobo likuteteze.
2 Iye atumize thandizo kuchokera ku malo ake opatulika;
akugwirizize kuchokera ku Ziyoni.
3 Iye akumbukire nsembe zako zonse
ndipo alandire nsembe zako zopsereza.
Sela
4 Akupatse chokhumba cha mtima wako
ndipo akuthandize kuti zonse wakonza zichitike.
5 Ife tidzafuwula ndi chimwemwe pamene iwe wapambana
ndipo tidzanyamula mbendera zathu mʼdzina la Mulungu wathu,
Yehova ayankhe zopempha zako zonse.
6 Tsopano ndadziwa kuti Yehova amapulumutsa wodzozedwa wake;
Iye amamuyankha kuchokera kumwamba ku malo ake opatulika
ndi mphamvu yopulumutsa ya dzanja lake lamanja.
7 Ena amadalira magaleta ndipo ena akavalo
koma ife tidzadalira dzina la Yehova Mulungu wathu.
8 Iwo amagonjetsedwa ndi kugwa,
koma ife timadzuka ndi kuyima chilili.
9 Inu Yehova, pulumutsani mfumu!
Tiyankheni pamene tikuyitanani!
15 Koma chadzulo lake Sauli asanafike, Yehova anali atamuwuza kale Samueli za zimenezi kuti, 16 “Mawa nthawi ngati yomwe ino ndidzakutumizira munthu wochokera ku dziko la Benjamini. Udzamudzoze kuti akhale mtsogoleri wa anthu anga, Aisraeli. Iye adzawapulumutsa mʼdzanja la Afilisti. Ine ndaona kuzunzika kwawo ndipo ndamva kulira kwawo.”
17 Samueli atamuona Sauli, Yehova anamuwuza kuti, “Munthu ndinakuwuza uja ndi uyu. Iyeyu adzalamulira anthu anga.”
18 Tsono Sauli anayandikira Samueli pa chipata ndipo anamufunsa, “Kodi mungandiwuze kumene kuli nyumba ya mlosi?”
19 Samueli anayankha, “Ine ndine mlosiyo. Tsogolani kupita ku phiri pakuti lero mudya ndi ine, ndipo mawa mmawa ndidzakuwuzani zonse zimene zili mu mtima mwanu. 20 Musadere nkhawa za abulu anu amene akhala akusowa masiku atatu apitawa, poti apezeka kale. Kodi Aisraeli onse akufunitsitsa ndani? Kodi si ndiwe ndi nyumba yonse ya abambo ako?”
21 Sauli anayankha, “Inetu ndine Mbenjamini, fuko lalingʼono la mafuko onse a Israeli, ndipo banja langa ndi lalingʼono pakati pa mabanja a fuko la Benjamini. Nanga nʼchifukwa chiyani mukunena zimenezi kwa ine?”
22 Ndipo Samueli anatenga Sauli ndi mnyamata wake uja ndi kulowa nawo mʼchipinda chachikulu ndipo anawakhazika kutsogolo kwa anthu oyitanidwa. Onse pamodzi analipo anthu makumi atatu. 23 Tsono Samueli anati kwa wophika, “Bwera nayo nyama imene ndinakupatsa, imene ndinakuwuza kuti uyisunge pambali.”
24 Kotero wophikayo anatenga mwendo wa nyama ndipo anawuyika patsogolo pa Sauli. Samueli anati “Nayi nyama imene ndinakusungira kuti pa nthawi yake udye pamodzi ndi anthu amene ndawayitana.” Ndipo Sauli anadya tsiku limenelo ndi Samueli.
25 Atatsika kuchoka ku phiri kuja, Samueli anamukonzera Sauli malo ogona pa denga la nyumba yake, ndipo Sauli anagona pamenepo. 26 Tsono mʼbandakucha Samueli anayitana Sauli pa dengapo nati, “Konzeka ndipo ine ndikuperekeza.” Choncho Sauli anadzuka ndipo onse awiri, Samueli ndi Sauli anakalowa mu msewu. 27 Atakafika ku mathero a mzindawo, Samueli anati kwa Sauli, “Muwuzeni mnyamata wanu kuti atsogole, koma inuyo muyime pangʼono kuti ndikuwuzeni mawu ochokera kwa Mulungu.”
Yesu Wofanana ndi Abale ake
5 Mulungu sanapereke kwa angelo ulamuliro wa dziko limene likubwerali, limene ife tikulinena. 6 Koma palipo pena pamene wina anachitira umboni kuti,
“Kodi munthu ndani kuti muzimukumbukira,
kapena mwana wa munthu kuti muzimusamalira?
7 Munamuchepetsa pangʼono kusiyana ndi angelo;
munamupatsa ulemerero ndi ulemu.
8 Munamupatsa ulamuliro pa zinthu zonse.”
Poyika zinthu zonse pansi pa ulamuliro wake, Mulungu sanasiye kanthu kamene sikali mu ulamuliro wake. Koma nthawi ino sitikuona zinthu pansi pa ulamuliro wake. 9 Koma tikuona Yesu, amene kwa kanthawi kochepa anamuchepetsa pangʼono kwa angelo, koma tsopano wavala ulemerero ndi ulemu chifukwa anamva zowawa za imfa, kuti mwachisomo cha Mulungu, Iye afere anthu onse.
