12 Mphangwa zakubuluka kuna Mulungu:
“Awa ndi mafala a Yahova thangwi ya Izraeli,” alonga Yahova,
Ule adafuthula kudzulu,+
Ule adalikhisa dziko yapantsi,+
Pontho ule adacita nzimu* wakuti uli muna munthu.
2 “Ine ndinadzacitisa Yerusalemu kukhala khomitco* ya vinyu yakuti inadzacitisa anthu onsene adanzungulira kudzedzereka; pontho Yuda na Yerusalemu anadzazungulirwa.+ 3 Pa ntsiku ineyi, ine ndinadzacitisa Yerusalemu kukhala mwala wakulemera kuna anthu onsene. Onsene anafuna kulamusa mwala unoyu anadzaphekeka kakamwe;+ pontho madzindza onsene anadzagumanyikana toera kumenyana na mwala unoyu.+ 4 Pa ntsiku ineyi,” alonga Yahova, “ine ndinadzacitisa makavalo kugopa kakamwe, pontho ale adaakwira anadzakhala anyansala. Ine ndinadzapitiriza kuyangʼana dzindza ya Yuda, mbwenye makavalo onsene a anthu a madzindza anango ndinadzaacitisa toera akhonde kuona. 5 Pontho atsogoleri a ku Yuda anadzalonga mʼmitima yawo: ‘Anthu anakhala mu Yerusalemu ndiwo anatipasa mphambvu zinabuluka kuna Mulungu wawo Yahova wa anyankhondo.’+ 6 Pa ntsiku ineyi, ine ndinadzacitisa atsogoleri a ku Yuda kukhala ninga moto pakati pa miti, pontho iwo anadzakhala ninga phindi ya moto wakugaka pakati pa misumbu ya tirigu.+ Iwo anadzapisa mbumba zonsene zidaazungulira kunkono wamadyo na kunkono wabzwere;+ anthu a mu Yerusalemu anadzapitiriza kukhala pa mbuto yawo, inde mu Yerusalemu.+
7 “Mbwenye pakutoma Yahova anadzapulumusa misasa ya Yuda, toera kubalika kwa dzindza ya Dhavidhi na kubalika kwa ale anakhala mu Yerusalemu kukhonde kukhala kukulu kakamwe kupiringana kubalika kwa Yuda. 8 Pa ntsiku ineyi, Yahova anadzatsidzikiza ale anakhala mu Yerusalemu;+ pa ntsiku ineyi, ule anafuna kudzagwegweduka* pakati pawo anadzakhala ninga Dhavidhi; pontho dzindza ya Dhavidhi inadzaatsogolera ninga Mulungu, ninga anju wa Yahova.+ 9 Pontho pa ntsiku ineyi, ine ndinadzafudzadi madzindza onsene anafuna kudzamenyana na Yerusalemu.+
10 “Ine ndinadzatsanulira nzimu wanga kuna dzindza ya Dhavidhi na kuna ale anakhala mu Yerusalemu; pontho iwo anadzacita maphembero akudembetera kuna ine. Iwo anadzayangʼana munthu adalasa iwo,+ mbamulira ninga pinacita iwo angaferwa na mwana wawo mʼbodzi basi wamamuna; pontho iwo anadzamulira kakamwe ninga pinacita iwo angaferwa na mwana wawo wamamuna wakutoma. 11 Pa ntsiku ineyi, anthu anadzalira kakamwe mu Yerusalemu, ninga pidacita iwo ku Adhadhrimoni ku Gowa ya Mejidho.+ 12 Pontho anthu a dziko ineyi anadzalira mwakugaluza, banja ibodzi na ibodzi inadzalira payokha; banja ya dzindza ya Dhavidhi inadzalira payokha, pontho akazi a banja ineyi anadzalira paokha; banja ya dzindza ya Natani+ inadzalira payokha, pontho akazi a banja ineyi anadzalira paokha; 13 banja ya dzindza ya Levi+ inadzalira payokha, pontho akazi a banja ineyi anadzalira paokha; banja ya dzindza ya Simei+ inadzalira payokha, pontho akazi a banja ineyi anadzalira paokha; 14 mabanja onsene anafuna kudzasala, ibodzi na ibodzi inadzalira payokha, pontho akazi a mabanja anewa anadzalira paokha.
