Yeremiya Agula Munda
32 Yehova anayankhula ndi Yeremiya mʼchaka chakhumi cha Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda, chimene chinalinso chaka cha 18 cha ulamuliro wa Nebukadinezara. 2 Pa nthawi imeneyi nʼkuti ankhondo a mfumu ya ku Babuloni atazinga Yerusalemu, ndipo mneneri Yeremiya ndiye anamutsekera mʼbwalo la alonda mʼnyumba yaufumu ya ku Yuda.
3 Tsono Zedekiya mfumu ya Yuda nʼkuti itamutsekera mʼmenemo, ndipo inati, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani ukulosera motero? Iwe ukunena kuti, ‘Yehova akuti: Ndidzapereka mzinda uno kwa mfumu ya ku Babuloni, ndipo idzawulanda.
6 Yeremiya anati, “Yehova wandiwuza kuti: 7 Taonani, Hanameli mwana wa Salumu, amalume ako akubwera ndipo adzakuwuza kuti, ‘Gula munda wanga wa ku Anatoti, chifukwa iwe ndiwe mʼbale wanga ndipo ndiwe woyenera kuwuwombola.’ ”
8 Ndipo monga momwe Yehova ananenera, Hanameli, msuweni wanga anabweradi ku bwalo la alonda ndipo anati, “Gula munda wanga wa ku Anatoti mʼdziko la Benjamini. Popeza ndiwe woyenera kuwugula ndi kukhala wako, gula munda umenewu kuti ukhale wako.”
“Ine ndinadziwa kuti amenewa anali mawu a Yehova aja; 9 choncho ndinagula munda wa ku Anatoti kwa Hanameli msuweni wanga, ndipo ndinamupatsa masekeli asiliva 17. 10 Ndinasayina panganolo ndikulimata pamaso pa mboni, kenaka ndinayeza ndalama zasilivazo pa sikelo.” 11 Pambuyo pake ndinatenga makalata anga a pangano, imodzi yomatidwa mʼmene munali malamulo onse a panganolo ndi ina yosamatidwa. 12 Ndinapereka makalatawo kwa Baruki mwana wa Neriya, mdzukulu wa Maseya pamaso pa Hanameli msuweni wanga, pamaso pa mboni zimene zinasayina panganoli ndiponso pamaso pa Ayuda onse okhala mʼbwalo la alonda.
13 “Ndinamulangiza Baruki pamaso pa onsewo kuti, 14 ‘Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti: Tenga makalata awa a umboni wapangano, iyi yokhala ndi chizindikiro ndi yopanda chizindikiro, uwasunge mʼmbiya kuti akhale nthawi yayitali. 15 Pakuti Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli akuti: Anthu adzagulanso nyumba, minda ndi mitengo yamphesa mʼdziko lino.’ ”
91 Iye amene amakhala mu mthunzi wa Wammwambamwamba
adzapuma mu mthunzi wa Wamphamvuzonse.
2 Ndidzanena za Yehova, “Iye ndiye pothawira panga ndi linga langa,
Mulungu wanga amene ndimadalira.”
3 Ndithu, Iye adzakupulumutsa ku msampha wa mlenje
ndi ku mliri woopsa;
4 Adzakuphimba ndi nthenga zake,
ndipo udzapeza malo othawira mʼmapikomo;
kukhulupirika kwake kudzakhala chishango chako ndi lihawo.
5 Sudzachita mantha ndi zoopsa za usiku,
kapena muvi wowuluka masana,
6 kapena mliri umene umayenda mu mdima,
kapena zowononga za pa nthawi ya masana.
14 “Chifukwa iye amandikonda,” akutero Yehova, “Ndidzamulanditsa;
ndidzamuteteza pakuti wavomereza dzina langa.
15 Adzandiyitana, ndipo ndidzamuyankha;
ndidzakhala naye pa mavuto,
ndidzamupulumutsa ndi kumulemekeza.
16 Ndidzamupatsa moyo wautali
ndi kumupulumutsa.”
6 Koma kulemekeza Mulungu kuli ndi phindu lalikulu. 7 Pakuti sitinabweretse kanthu mʼdziko lapansi, ndipo sitingatengenso kanthu pochoka mʼdziko lapansi. 8 Koma ngati tili ndi chakudya ndi zovala, zimenezi zitikwanire. 9 Anthu amene amafuna kulemera amagwa mʼmayesero ndi mu msampha ndi mʼzilakolako zambiri zopusa ndi zoopsa zimene zimagwetsera anthu mʼchitayiko ndi mʼchiwonongeko. 10 Pakuti kukonda ndalama ndiye muzu wa zoyipa za mitundu yonse. Anthu ena ofunitsitsa ndalama, asochera ndipo asiya njira yachikhulupiriro ndipo adzitengera zowawitsa zambiri.

Agalu ankabweranso ndi kumanyambita zilonda zake.
22 “Nthawi inafika imene wopemphayo anamwalira ndipo angelo anamunyamula nakamuyika mʼmanja mwa Abrahamu. Munthu wolemerayo anamwaliranso ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda. 23 Ali mʼgehena kuzunzika, anakweza maso ake ndipo anaona Abrahamu ali ndi Lazaro pambali pake. 24 Ndipo anafuwula kwa iye kuti, ‘Abambo Abrahamu, mundimvere chisoni ine ndipo mutumeni Lazaroyo kuti aviyike msonga ya chala chake mʼmadzi kuti aziziritse lilime langa, chifukwa ndikumva ululu mʼmoto muno.’
25 “Koma Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Mwanawe kumbukira kuti nthawi yamoyo wako unalandira zinthu zako zabwino, pamene Lazaro analandira zinthu zoyipa, koma tsopano akusangalatsidwa kuno ndipo iwe uli mʼmazunzo. 26 Ndipo kuwonjezera pa zonsezi, pakati pa inu ndi ife pali chiphompho chachikulu chimene chinayikidwa, kotero kuti amene akufuna kubwera kumeneko sangathe, kapena palibe amene angawoloke kuchokera kumeneko kudzafika kuno.’
27 “Iye anayankha kuti, ‘Ndipo ndikupemphani inu, abambo, mutumeni Lazaro ku nyumba ya abambo anga, 28 pakuti ine ndili ndi abale asanu. Lolani iye akawachenjeze kotero kuti asadzabwere kumalo ano amazunzo.’
29 “Abrahamu anayankha kuti, ‘Ali ndi Mose ndi Aneneri; aleke amvere iwo.’
30 “Iye anati, ‘Ayi, bambo Abrahamu, koma ngati wina ochokera kwa akufa adzapita kwa iwo, adzatembenuka mtima.’
31 “Anati kwa iye, ‘Ngati iwo samvera Mose ndi Aneneri, sadzakhulupirira ngakhale wina atauka kwa akufa.’ ”
