11 Sonu Mozesi wangukambiya Yehova kuti: “Ntchifukwa wuli mwandisuzga viyo ndamteŵeti winu? Ntchifukwa wuli mwaleka kundilongo wezi pakuŵika mphingu ya ŵanthu wosi yaŵa paku ini?+

15 Asani venivi ndivu mundichitiyengi, mbwenu mundibayi ŵaka, sonu viyo.+ Asani ndasaniya wezi pa masu pinu, lekani kundiŵika mu masuzgu nganyaki.”

3 Eliya wanguchita mantha ukongwa. Mwaviyo, wangusoka ndi kuthaŵa kuti wataski umoyu waki.+ Wangufika ku Beresheba+ wa ku Yuda+ ndipu wangusiya mteŵeti waki kweniko. 4 Iyu wangwenda ulendu wa zuŵa limoza ndipu wangufika kuchipululu. Wanguza ndi kuja pasi pa kachimiti ka mweyu ndipu wangupempha kuti wafwi. Iyu wangukamba kuti: “Mbwenu ndavuka navu! Sonu yimwi Yehova, tuzganimu umoyu wangu,+ pakuti ini nde wamampha kuluska apapi ŵangu akali cha.”

16 Ndawutinkha umoyu wangu,+ ndikhumba cha kulutirizga kuja ndi umoyu.

Ndilekeni, pakuti mazuŵa ngangu nge nge mvuchi.+

2 Sonu Yona wangupemphera kwaku Yehova ndipu wangukamba kuti: “A Yehova, asi venivi ndivu ndawopanga po ndenga kucharu changu? Ndichu chifukwa chaki pakwamba ndakhumbanga kuthaŵiya ku Tashishi,+ pakuti ndinguziŵa kuti ndimwi Chiuta wawezi kweniso walisungu, wambula kukwiya liŵi ndipuso wakuzaza ndi chanju chambula kumala,+ yo wachita chitima chifukwa cha soka lo wakhumba kuwisa. 3 Sonu yimwi Yehova, chondi tuzganimu umoyu wangu, pakuti mbumampha kuti ndifwi kuluska kuŵa ndi umoyu.”+
