Kunyodola mfumu ya ku Babiloni3Chauta adzakupumitsani ku zoŵaŵa ndi mavuto, ndiponso ku ntchito yakalavulagaga imene anthu ankakugwiritsani.
4Motero mudzanyodola mfumu ya ku Babiloni, mudzati,
“Watha bwanji wopsinja uja?
Kwatha bwanji kudzikuza kwake kuja?
5Chauta wathyola mkwapulo wa anthu oipa,

6Iwowo ankakantha mitundu ya anthu

Ankalamulira mitundu ya anthu mwaukali

7Dziko lonse lapansi lapumula,

ndipo anthu akuimba mokondwa.
8Mitengo ya paini ikukondwerera

Mikungudza ya ku Lebanoni ikuti,
‘Chigwetsedwere chako pansi, mfumu iwe,
palibe wina amene adabwera kudzatigwetsa.’
9“Kumanda kwatekeseka kuti kukulandire

Mandawo adzutsa mizimu ya anthu akufa

Akuŵaimiritsa pa mipando yao yaufumu

10Onsewo adzalankhula,

‘Iwenso watheratu mphamvu monga ife!
Tsopano tafanana.’
11Ulemerero wako, pamodzi ndi nyimbo

Bedi lako ndi mphutsi,

12 Chiv. 8.10; 9.1 “Wagwa pansi bwanji kuchoka kumwamba,
iwe Nthanda, mwana wa Mbandakucha?
Wagwetsedwa pansi bwanji,
iwe amene unkagonjetsa mitundu ya anthu?
13 Mt. 11.23; Lk. 10.15 Mumtima mwako unkati,
‘Ndidzakwera mpaka kumwamba.
Ndidzakhazika mpando wanga waufumu
pamwamba pa nyenyezi za Mulungu.
Ndidzakhala pampandopo pa phiri la
kumpoto kumene imasonkhanako milungu yonse.
14Ndidzakwera pamwamba pa mitambo,
ndidzafanafana naye Wopambanazonse.’
15Koma watsitsidwa m'manda,
pansi penipeni pa dzenje.
16“Anthu akufa akakuwona
azidzakupenyetsetsa nkuyamba kulingalira
za iwe kuti,
‘Kodi uyu si munthu uja ankanjenjemeretsa
dziko lapansi, ndi kugwedeza maufumu?
17Kodi si ameneyu uja adasandutsa dziko
lapansi chipululu ndi kugwetsa mizinda,
ndipo sankalola kuti anthu ogwidwa abwerere kwao?’
18Mafumu onse a mitundu ya anthu akugona
mwaulemerero aliyense m'manda akeake.
19Koma iwe watayidwa kunja kwa manda ako
ngati nthambi yoola ndi yonyansa.
Mtembo wako waphimbidwa ndi ophedwa
amene adabayidwa ndi lupanga,
naponyedwa m'dzenje lamiyala.
Udzakhala ngati mtembo woponderezedwa.
20“Sudzaikidwa nao m'manda mwaulemerero,
chifukwa chakuti waononga dziko lako, wapha anthu ako.
“Zidzukulu za anthu ochita zoipa
zisadzakumbukike mpang'ono pomwe.
21Mukonzekere kupha ana aamuna a mfumuyi,
chifukwa cha kulakwa kwa atate ao, kuwopa
kuti angadzuke ndi kulanda dziko lapansi
ndi kulidzaza dziko lonselo ndi mizinda.”
Mulungu adzaononga Babiloni22Chauta Wamphamvuzonse akunena kuti, “Ndidzauthira nkhondo mzinda wa Babiloni. Ndidzathetseratu dzina lake ndi onse otsaliramo. Sipadzapulumuka ana ndi zidzukulu zomwe. Ndatero Ine Chauta.
23Mzindawo ndidzausandutsa dambo lamatope ndi malo okhalamo akanungu. Ndidzausesa ndi tsache lofafaniza zonse zotsala. Ndatero Ine Chauta Wamphamvuzonse.”

“Monga momwe ndaganizira,
zidzachitikadi choncho,
ndipo monga momwe ndatsimikizira
zidzakhala momwemo ndithu.
25“Ndidzaŵaononga Aasiriya m'dziko langa,
ndipo ndidzaŵapondereza ndi mapazi pa mapiri anga.
Tsono anthu anga ndidzaŵavula goli
limene Aasiriya adaŵaveka,
ndidzaŵachotsera katundu wolemetsa pa mapewa ao.
26“Zimenezi ndizo zimene ndagamula
kuti zidzachitike pa dziko lonse lapansi.
Ndatambalitsa dzanja langa
kuti ndilange anthu a mitundu yonse.”
27Chauta Wamphamvuzonse ndiye watsimikiza
kuti zimenezi zichitike,
nanga ndaninso angathe kumletsa?
Dzanja lake nlotambalitsa,
nanga ndaninso angalibweze?
Mulungu adzaononga Afilisti28 2Maf. 16.20; 2Mbi. 28.27 Chaka chimene mfumu Ahazi adafa, padamveka ulosi uwu:
29 Yer. 47.1-7; Ezek. 25.15-17; Yow. 3.4-8; Amo. 1.6-8; Zef. 2.4-7; Zek. 9.5-7 “Musakondwe inu anthu a ku Filistiya,
poona kuti adatha Aasiriya
amene adaali ngati ndodo yokumenyani.
Mu mtundu wa njoka wamba mudzatuluka mphiri,
ndipo mu mtundu wa mphiriyo
mudzatuluka chinjoka chaliŵiro chaululu.
30“Osauka zedi adzapeza chakudya,
amphaŵi adzakhala pabwino.
Koma mtundu wanu Afilistinu ndidzauwononga ndi njala,
ndi otsalira omwe ndidzaŵapha.
31“Lirani kwamphamvu inu apachipata!
Pemphani chithandizo mofuula, inu amumzinda!
Njenjemerani ndi mantha nonse Afilisti!
Onani fumbi likuchita kuti kodoo kuchokera kumpoto,
ndipo mwa ankhondo akubwerawo palibe wamantha.”
32Kodi tidzaŵayankhanji amithenga a ku Filistiyawo?
Tidzati, “Chauta adakhazikitsa kale Ziyoni,
ndipo mu mzinda umenewu
anthu ake ozunzika amapeza populumukira.”
