Izaiya 38:1-22
38 Mu ntsiku zenezi, Ezekiya aphatwa na utenda mbasala pangʼono toera kufa.+ Mprofeta Izaiya+ mwana wa Amoji abwera kuna iye, mbampanga: “Yahova alonga tenepa: ‘Pereka pitsogolero kuna anthu a panyumba* pako, thangwi iwe unafa; nee unawanga.’”+
2 Natenepa, Ezekiya azungunusa nkhope yace ku pfufu, mbatoma kucita phembero kuna Yahova:
3 “Ndisakudembeterani Yahova, ndaphata miyendo, kumbukani+ kuti ine ndafamba mwakukhulupirika pamaso panu, pontho na ntima onsene.+ Ine ndacita pinthu pyadidi pamaso panu.” Penepo Ezekiya atoma kulira kakamwe.
4 Buluka penepo, Izaiya atambira mphangwa izi zakubuluka kuna Yahova:
5 “Bwerera toera upange Ezekiya kuti:+ ‘Yahova Mulungu wa mbuyako Dhavidhi alonga tenepa: “Ndabva phembero yako,+ pontho ndaona misozi yako.+ Ndinathimizira pyaka 15 pya umaso wako,*+
6 mbandipulumusa iwe na nzinda uno mʼmanja mwa mambo wa Asirya, pontho ndinatsidzikiza nzinda uno.+
7 Cidzindikiro ca Yahova cinapangiza kuti Yahova anadzacita pidalonga iye ndi ici:+
8 Ine ndinacitisa kuti nʼthundzi wa pa masikada a Ahazi ubwerere nduli masikada khumi.”’”+ Natenepa, nʼthundzi wakuti ukhali pa masikada wabwerera nduli masikada khumi.
9 Mphangwa zidalemba Ezekiya Mambo wa ku Yuda mu ndzidzi udabva iye kupha mbawanga.
10 Ine ndalonga: “Ine mbandidzati kukalamba,Ndakakamizwa toera kupita na pa misuwo mikulu ya Nthumbi.*
Ndinakwatirwa pyaka pyanga pinango pidasala.”
11 Ine ndalonga: “Ine nee ndinadzaona Yahova,* nee ndinadzaona Yahova mu dziko ya anthu ali mʼmaso.+
Ine nee ndinadzayangʼanabve anthuNdingakhala ku mbuto ya pinthu pyakusowa umaso.
12 Nyumba yanga yakhutciwa mbienda kaikhwa kutali na ine,+Ninga nsasa wa nkumbizi.
Ine ndapyangirira umaso wanga ninga pinacita nyakusona nguwo;Iye andigwanda ninga pinacitwa usalu udasalikira pa nguwo idamala kusonwa.
Kutomera namacibese mpaka namaulo imwe musandibweresera nyatwa.+
13 Ine ndayesera kukhurudzika mpaka namacibese.
Iye asaswa magogodo anga onsene ninga pinacita nkhalamu;Kutomera namacibese mpaka namaulo imwe musandibweresera nyatwa.+
14 Ine ndisapitiriza kulira ninga mbalame zingʼono;+Ndisapitiriza kulira ninga nkhangaiwa.+
Maso anga aneta na kuyangʼana kudzulu;+
‘Yahova, ndiri wakutsukwala kakamwe;Ndiphedzeni!’+
15 Ndinalonganji ine?
Iye alonga na ine mbacita pinthu.
Ndinakhala wakucepeseka mu umaso wanga onseneThangwi ndatsukwala kakamwe.
16 ‘Yahova, anthu onsene asakhala na umaso thangwi ya pinthu pyenepi,*Pontho thangwi ya pinthu pyenepi, ine ndisapitiriza kukhala mʼmaso.
Imwe munandipasa pontho ungumi wadidi mbamundikoya na umaso.+
17 Onani! Mʼmbuto mwa ntendere, ine ndakhala wakutsukwala kakamwe;Mbwenye nakuti musandifunaMwanditsidzikiza toera ndikhonde kugwera nʼdjenje yakufudza.+
Imwe mwaponya kunduli kwanu madawo anga onsene.*+
18 Nthumbi* nee inakwanisa kukupasani mbiri,+Kufa nee kunakwanisa kukusimbani.+
Onsene anagwera nʼdjenje nee anakwanisa kuona kukhulupirika kwanu.+
19 Anthu ali mʼmaso, basi ene ale ali mʼmaso anakwanisa kukusimbani,Ninga pinacita ine lero.
Baba anakwanisa kupfundzisa anace kukhulupirika kwanu.+
20 Yahova, ndipulumuseni,Pontho ife tinadzaimba nyimbo zanga na pyakuimba napyo pya nkhambala+Panyumba ya Yahova mu ntsiku zonsene za umaso wathu.’”+
21 Buluka penepo, Izaiya alonga: “Bweresani nkate wa masambvu akuuma, pontho uikheni pa phute* toera iye awange.”+
22 Ezekiya abvundza: “Ninji cinafuna pangiza kuti ndinadzaenda kunyumba ya Yahova?”+
