Anju na kalivu
1 Ndidawona anju winango wamphambvu akhabuluka kucokera kudzulu. Iye akhadafunikira mtambo ndipo padzulu pa msolo wace pakhana uta bwa Mulungu. Nkhope yace ikhawoneka ninga dzuwa, ndipo minyendo yace ikhadakhala ninga mbiru za moto. 2 Iye m'manja mwace akhana kalivu kakufunguka. Mwendo wace wa madidi adaponda padzulu pa nyandza ndipo mwendo wace wa madzere udaponda padzulu pa mataka, 3 ndipo adakuwa kwene-kwene ninga kulira kwa mphondolo. Pomwe iye adakuwa, kugunda kunomwe kudatawira. 4 Kugunda kunomweko kwatamala, ine ndikhadakondzeka kuti ndinembe, tsono ndidabva fala kudzulu lakuti: “Koya mumtima bzomwe bzalewedwa na kugunda kunomweko, leka kubzinemba”.
5 Ndipo anju ule omwe ndidawona adaima adaponda padzulu pa nyandza na padzulu pa mataka, adaimisa boko lamadidi kudzulu, 6 ndipo adalumbira na dzina la Mulungu ana moyo wakusaya kumala, omwe adalenga kudzulu, dziko la pantsi, nyandza na bzentse bzomwe bziri m'mbuto zimwezo. Lumbirolo ni lakuti: “Pan'dzawoneka lini pomwe kucedwa! 7 Tsono pantsiku zomwe anju wacinomwe an'dzafuna kuliza cimbututu cace, cakubisika ca Mulungu cin'dzacitika ninga momwe Iye adalewera kwa apolofita, anyagirinya wace”.
8 Patsogolo pace, adalewa pomwe na ine fala lomwe ndikhadabva kale kucokera kudzulu lakuti: “Ndoko, phata livu lakufunguka lomwe liri m'manja mwa anju omwe adaima padzulu pa nyandza na padzulu pa mataka”.
9 Ndipo ndidafendera pana anju ule, ndipo ndidamukumbira kuti andipase kalivuko*. Iye adandiuza kuti: “Kaphate ndipo kadye! Iko kan'dzakhala kakuwawa mucipfu mwako, tsono pamulomo pako kan'dzakhala kakutapira ninga uci”. 10 Ndidaphata kalivuko m'manja mwa anju ndipo ndidakadya. Iko kadakhala kakutapira ninga uci mukamwa mwangu. Tsono, pakukadya, ndidabva mucipfu mwangu kuti kakhawawa. 11 Pamwepo ndidauzidwa kuti: “Bzin'funika kuti iwepo upolofite papsa bza mbumba zizinji, madziko mazinji, bzirewedwe bzizinji na azimambo azinji”.
