Yanga ndi mazu ngaku Yehova ngakukwaskana ndi Ayisirayeli kuziya mwaku Malaki:*
2 “Mwaŵanthu yimwi ndakuyanjani,”+ Yehova ndiyu wakamba.
Kweni yimwi mukamba kuti: “Mwatiyanja wuli?”
“Asi Esawu wenga mku waku Yakobe?”+ Yehova ndiyu wakamba. “Kweni ini ndingwanja Yakobe,
3 Esawu ndingumutinkha;+ mapiri ngaki ndingungasambusa mahami+ ndipu chihara chaki ndinguchipereka kwa akambwi amuchipululu.”+
4 “Chinanga kuti Edomu wakamba kuti, ‘Tavikitika kweni tiwengeku ndipu tamuzenga so mahami,’ Yehova wa mizinda ndiyu wakamba, ‘Azamuzenga kweni ini ndazamuwisiya pasi, ndipu yiwu azamudanika kuti “chigaŵa cha uheni” kweniso “ŵanthu wo Yehova waŵakana kwamuyaya.”+
5 Mwazamuwona ndi masu nginu, ndipu mwazamukamba kuti: “Yehova wakwezeki pa chigaŵa cha Ayisirayeli.”’”
6 “‘Mwana watumbika awisi,+ ndipu mteŵeti watumbika ambuyaki. Sonu asani ini nde wusemwi,+ we pani ulemu wo nditenere kupaskika?+ Asani nde mbuyamwi,* mulekiyanji kundiwopa?’* Ini Yehova wa mizinda ndikambiya yimwi asembi, yimwi muyuyuwa zina langu.+
“‘Kweni yimwi mukamba kuti: “Taliyuyuwa wuli zina linu?”’
7 “‘Mupereka chakurya* chakufipiskika paguŵa langu la sembi.’
“‘Ndipu yimwi mukamba kuti: “Takufipiskani wuli?”’
“‘Mukamba kuti: “Thebulu laku Yehova+ ntchinthu cho chitenere kuyuyulika.”
8 Ndipu asani mupereka nyama yachibulumutiya nge sembi, mukamba kuti: “Palivi suzgu.” Ndipu asani mupereka nyama yakupunduka pamwenga yo yitama, mukamba kuti: “Palivi suzgu.”’”+
“Yesani kupereka nyama zenizi kwa nduna yinu. Kumbi yikondwengi namwi pamwenga kukulondiyani umampha?” Yehova wa mizinda ndiyu wakamba.
9 “Sonu chondi ŵeyeriyani* Chiuta kuti wakuchitiyeni lisungu. Kumbi wakulondiyeningi umampha asani mutimupaska sembi zaviyo?” Yehova wa mizinda ndiyu wakamba.
10 “Kumbi ndiyani pakati pinu yo wakhumba kujala visasa?*+ Pakuti mungapemba cha motu paguŵa langu la sembi kwambula malipiru.+ Ndikondwa namwi cha,” Yehova wa mizinda ndiyu wakamba, “ndipuso ndikondwa cha ndi sembi yeyosi yo mutindipaska nge mphasu.”+
11 “Pakuti kwambiya ko kutuliya lumwi mpaka ko liselere,* zina langu lazamutumbikika pakati pa mitundu ya ŵanthu.+ Pamalu ngengosi pazamuwotcheka sembi kuti zisunkhi josi, kweniso sembi zazamuperekeka ku zina langu nge mphasu zamampha; chifukwa chakuti zina langu lazamutumbikika pakati pa mitundu ya ŵanthu,”+ Yehova wa mizinda ndiyu wakamba.
12 “Kweni yimwi mutilifipiska*+ mwakukamba kuti, ‘Thebulu laku Yehova lafipiskika ndipu vipasu vaki, vakurya vaki, vitenere kuyuyulika.’+
13 Mukamba so kuti, ‘Awonani! Vakuvukisa!’ ndipuso mutivinuska mwakuviyuyuwa,” Yehova wa mizinda ndiyu wakamba. “Ndipu mutuza ndi nyama zo mwaba, zakupunduka ndipuso zo zitama. Hinya, mutuza ndi vinthu venivi nge mphasu! Kumbi nditenere kulonde vinthu venivi kutuliya kwaku yimwi?”+ Yehova ndiyu wakamba.
14 “Ngwakutembeka munthu muryarya yo we ndi nyama yinthulumi yambula kalema mu mskambu waki, kweni walayizga ndi kupereka kwaku Yehova nyama yo ye ndi kalema. Pakuti ini ndini Fumu yikulu,”+ Yehova wa mizinda ndiyu wakamba, “ndipu zina langu lazamukuŵa lakuchitiska mantha pakati pa mitundu ya ŵanthu.”+
