1 Lelo noghutsa, Angu Imulungu kawalema iwanu wake? Mbe, ng'awalemile bae! Nene mwenyegho na Muisiraeli, mtsukulu wa Abrahamu, nolawila mne kabila lya Benjamini. 2 Imulungu ng'awalemile bae iwanu wake iyawamanyile kulawa mwanduso. Angu ng'ammanyile bae Ghamaandiko Mahenzeluka pfagholonga hala Eliya pfayamlilile Imulungu kwa nzambi tsa Waisiraeli? 3 “Imtwatsa, wawakoma manabii wako na wahahinya hanu hako hakulapfila nambiko. Yanisighale nene niliheka, nawo wobama wang'ome!” 4 Angu Imulungu tsakamwidikatse? Tsakamlongela, “Nyikila mwenyegho iwanu 7000, awo ng'awamtamanile bae mulungu Baali.” 5 Apfo pfipfo pfaili sambi, kuna iwanu chidogho iwasaghulighwe kwa uluso we Imulungu. 6 Wasaghulighwa kwa uluso wake, si kwa aghala ghawatendile bae. Kwaapfila ka Imulungu kosaghula kwa kulola chawotenda iwanu, apfo uluso wake ung'awile si chinu bae.

7 Lelo choni? Iwanu we Isiraeli ng'awachonile bae achila chawang'ali wochibama, lekeni awala iwasaghulighwe wachona. Wamwenga tsawatendighwa wasughu. 8 Ka pfagholonga Ghamaandiko Mahenzeluka,

13 Nowalongelani mwemwe imli si Wayahudi bae, kwaapfila nene namtumighwa kwe iwanu iwali si Wayahudi bae, neghodela isang'ano yangu. 14 Nobama niwatende iwanu wangu Wayahudi wone chepfu, ili nidahe kuwakombola wamwenga mghati mwawo. 15 Mana ka ukulemighwa kwawo kuwatenda iwanu wose walamlitsighwe ne Imulungu, pfii itsakuwatse hawatsotogholighwa ne Imulungu? Iwanu watsotsilihuka!

16 Chihindi chamwanduso che chighate ang'eng'ighwa Imulungu, chighate chose chakuwa chake. Imitsitsi ing'awa ye Imulungu, ghamaputila ghose nagho ghakuwa ghake. 17 Tulonge, ghamaputila ghangi gha mtseituni ghaghanighwa na ghamaputila gha mtseituni wa kwibagho ghekighwa hanu haho. Mwemwe imli si Wayahudi mweghala ne mtseituni wa kwibagho, sambi mwehangila ughima wa chimuhe wa Wayahudi. 18 Apfo mleke kuwabetsa awala iwaghanighwe ka ghamaputila! Lelo mdahatse kwighoda? Mkumbuke si mwemwe bae imkindilitsa imitsitsi, ila imtsitsi yomkindilitsani mwemwe.

19 Lekeni mwodaha kulonga, “Ghamaputila ghaghanighwa ili twetwe twikighwe hanu hala.” 20 Pfinogha! Tsaghaghanighwa kwaapfila ng'aghatoghole bae, lekeni mwemwe mwakwima kwaapfila mtoghola. Lelo mleke kwighoda ila mpfuke. 21 Kwaapfila ka Imulungu ng'awalekile Wayahudi iweghalile ne ghamaputila ighaghanighwe, pfii lelo Imulungu katsomlekani mwemwe?

22 Lelo mlole libatsi na ukali we Imulungu. Yeye kamkali kwa awala iwaghwile, lekeni kana libatsi kuna mwemwe ka mwoghendelela kukala mna libatsi lyake, lekeni ka si pfipfo bae, mwemwe namwe mtsoghanighwa. 23 Na Wayahudi pfipfila wang'atoghola, watsokwikighwa keli hanu hala hawaghanighwe, kwaapfila Imulungu kodaha kutenda apfo. 24 Mwemwe iwanu imli si Wayahudi mweghala na putila la mtseituni wa kwibagho. Mlapfighwa ako mwikighwa mne mtseituni wa kumghunda, mne sina si lyenu bae. Lekeni Wayahudi weghala na mtseituni wa kumghunda. Lelo kuna ukomu wachi Imulungu kuwoyitsa keli msina mwawo iwenyegho?

25 Ndughu tsangu sibama bae mleke kumanya mbuli ino, nobama mmanye ili mleke kwibona mna mbutsi ng'ani. Usughu wa Waisiraeli tsaukala wa chipindi chidogho, mbaka iwanu wa isi tsingi hawatsomuyila Imulungu. 26 Baho Waisiraeli wose watsokombolighwa, ka pfayandikighwe,

33 Utajili we Imulungu mkulu sideke
