Kuweruza Kolungama
16 Nthawi ina amayi awiri adama anabwera kwa mfumu ndipo anayima pamaso pake. 17 Mmodzi mwa amayiwo anati, “Mbuye wanga, mayi uyu ndi ine timakhala nyumba imodzi. Ine ndinabala mwana tili limodzi ndi mnzangayu. 18 Tsiku lachitatu ine nditabala mwana, mnzangayunso anabereka mwana wake. Tinalipo awiriwiri mʼnyumbamo ndipo munalibe wina aliyense.
19 “Nthawi ya usiku mwana wa mnzangayu anafa chifukwa anamugonera. 20 Tsono iyeyu anadzuka pakati pa usiku, natenga mwana wanga ku mimba kwanga pamene ine mdzakazi wanu ndinali mʼtulo. Anamuyika mwanayo ku mimba kwake ndi kuyika mwana wake wakufayo ku mimba kwanga. 21 Mmawa nditadzuka kuti ndiyamwitse mwana wanga ndinapeza kuti ndi wakufa! Koma kutacha nditamuyangʼanitsitsa ndinaona kuti si mwana amene ine ndinabala.”
22 Koma mayi winayo anati, “Ayi! Mwana wamoyoyu ndi wanga, mwana wakufayu ndi wako.”
Koma mayi woyambayo analimbikira kuti. “Ayi! Mwana wakufayu ndi wako; wamoyoyu ndi wanga.” Motero akaziwa anatsutsana pamaso pa mfumu.
23 Pamenepo mfumu inati, “Wina akuti, ‘Mwana wanga ndi wamoyoyu ndipo mwana wako ndi wakufayu,’ pamene winanso akuti, ‘Ayi! Mwana wako ndi wakufayu wanga ndi wamoyoyu.’ ”
24 Pamenepo mfumu inati, “Patseni lupanga.” Ndipo anabwera nalo lupanga kwa mfumu. 25 Tsono mfumu inagamula kuti, “Muduleni pakati mwana wamoyoyu ndipo wina mumupatse gawo limodzi, gawo linalo mumupatse winayo.”
26 Mayi amene mwana wake anali moyo anagwidwa ndi chisoni chifukwa cha mwana wakeyo ndipo anawuza mfumu kuti, “Chonde mbuye wanga, mupatseni mnzangayu mwana wamoyoyu! Musamuphe!”
Koma winayo anati, “Ayi, asandipatse ine kapena iwe. Muduleni pakati!”
27 Choncho mfumu inagamula kuti, “Perekani mwana wamoyoyu kwa mayi woyambayu. Musamuphe, iyeyu ndiye mayi wake wa mwanayu.”
28 Pamene Aisraeli onse anamva za chigamulo chimene mfumu inapereka, anaopa mfumuyo kwambiri, chifukwa anaona kuti mfumu inali ndi nzeru zochokera kwa Mulungu zoweruzira mwachilungamo.

Ife tidzawapatsa udindo oyangʼanira. 4 Koma ife tidzadzipereka kuti tizipemphera ndi kulalikira mawu.”
5 Mawu amenewa anakondweretsa gulu lonse la anthu. Iwo anasankha, Stefano, munthu wodzazidwa ndi chikhulupiriro ndiponso Mzimu Woyera; anasankhanso Filipo, Prokoro, Nikanora, Timo, Parmena ndi Nikolao amene anatembenuka mtima ndi kulowa Chiyuda kuchokera kwa Antiokeya. 6 Iwo anapereka anthuwa kwa atumwi amene anawapempherera ndi kuwasanjika manja.
