Sura ya 9
1 Nijobha bhukweli mu Kristu. Nijobha lepi udesi, ni dhamira jha nene jhishuhudila pamonga ni nene mu Roho Mtakatifu,
2 kwamba jhijhelepi huzuni mbaha ni maumifu ghaghabeli kumalika mugati mu muoyo bhwa nene.
3 Kwamba ninogheleghe ne muene kulaanibhwa ni kutengibhwa patali ni Kristu kwa ndabha jha bhalongo bhangu, bhala bha jamii jha nene mu mb'el'e.
4 Bhene ndo Bhaisraeli. Bhabhajhe ni hali jha kujha bhana, bha utukufu, bhwa maaganu, ni zawadi jha sheria, kumwabudu K'yara, ni ahadi.
5 Bhene bhalongolesi ambako Kristu ahidili kwa litengu kufuala mb'el'e obho - ambajhe muene ndo K'yara ghwa fyoha. Ni muene atufibhwajhi milele. Amina.
6 Lakini sio kujha ahadi sya K'yara sisindilu kutimila. Ndabha sio khila munu jha ajhele Israeli ndo Mwisraeli halisi.
7 Naha lepi, hata kwa bhuzao bhwa Abrahamu kujha ndo bhanamunu halisi. Lakini, “ni kup'et'ela Isaka uzao bhwa jhobhi wibetakukutibhwa.”
8 Ejhe ndo kwamba, bhana bha mb'el'e sio bhana bha K'yara. Lakini bhana bha ahadi bhilolelibhwa kujha kama uzao.
9 Ndabha e'le ndo lilobhi lya ahadi: “Mu majira agha nibetakuhida, ni Sara ibetakupelibhwa muana.”
10 E'le lepi tu, lakini baada jha Rebeka kukabha luleme kwa munu mmonga, Isaka dadi jhitu-
11 kwamba bhana bhajhe bhakhona kuhogoleka na ajhele akhetilepi khenu kyokyoha khela kinofu au kibhibhi, ili kwamba kusudi lya K'yara kul'engana na bhusalanu lijhemajhi, Bhwali kwa matendo lepi, lakini kwa ndabha jha jhola jhaikhuta.
12 Lijabhibhu kwa muene, “Mbaha ibetakun'tumikila n'debe.”
13 Kama kyajhalembibhu: “Yakobo nan'ganili, lakini Esau nan'dadili.”
14 Basi kabhele twibetakujobha kiki? Je bhujhe bhudhalimu kwa K'yara? La hasha.
15 Kwa kujha ijobha kwa Musa, “nibetakujha ni rehema kwa jhola jhanibetakundehemu, na nibetakujha ni k'esa kwa jhola jhanibetakun'hurumila.”
16 Henu basi, kwandabha jha muene lepi jhailonda, wala ndabha jha muene lepi jhaijumba, lakini kwandabha jha K'yara, ambajhe ilasya rehema.
17 Kwa kujha majhandiku ghijobha kwa Farao, “Kwa kusudi e'le maalumu nakujhimuli, ili kwamba nilasiajhi nghofu sya nene kwa bhebhe, ni kabhele ili lihina lya nene litangasibhwayi mu nchi jhioha.”
18 Henu basi, K'yara huwa ijha ni rehema kwa jhejhioha jhaan'ganili, ni kwa ambajhe akan'gana akambeka kujha mkaidi.
19 Kabhele wibetakujobha kwa nene, “Kwandabha jha kiki wako na wibhona likosa? Jholeku jha abhwahili kustahimili matakwa gha muene?”
20 Kinyume kyake, mwanadamu, bhebhe ghweniani jhaghwijibu kinyume ni k'yara? Kujha ni bhuwesekanu bho bhuoha bhwa kyakifyogholibhu kujobha kwa mfanyanzi, “Kwandajhakiki ghwanikhetili nene naha?”
21 Je mfinyazi huwa ijha ni haki panani pa bhud'opi kutengenesya khenu kwa matumizi maalumu kufwatana ni libonge lelalela, ni khenu kheng'e kwa matumizi gha khila ligono?
22 Bhuli kama K'yara, ambajhe ajhe ni bhutayari bhwa kulasya gadhabu jha muene kumanyikana, asindemele kwa bhuvumilifu bhwa kutosha fenu fya gadhabu fyafyaandalibhu kwa kujhangamisibhwa?
23 Bhuli kama abhombili naha ili kwamba alasiajhi bhwingi bhwa bhutukufu bhwa muene panani pa fenu fya rehema ambafyo amalikufiandala kwa ndabha jha utukufu?
24 Bhuli kama abhombi naha ni kwa muenga kabhele, ambajhe ndo jhaatukhutili sio tu kuhoma kwa Bhayahudi, lakini kabhele kuhoma kwa bhanu bha Mataifa?
25 Kama kyaijobha kabhele kwa Hosea: “Nibetakubhakuta bhanu bha jhoni, ambabho bhajhelepi bhanu bhangu, ni mpendwa ghwa muene ambajhe aganikibhu lepi.
26 Na jhibeta kujha kwamba pala ajobhibhu kwa bhene, 'Muenga mwebhanu bha nene lepi,' pala bhibete kukutibhwa bhanu bha K'yara jhaajhe muomi.”
27 Isaya ilela kuhusiana ni Israeli, “Kama hesabu jha bhana bha Israeli ngajhijhele kama n'sanga bhwa bahari, jhibetakujha ndo masalu ambagho bhibetakiokolibhwa.
28 Kwa kujha Bwana ibetakulitola lilobhi lya muene panani pa nchi, manyata ni kwa bhutimilifu.
29 Ni kama Isaya kyaajobhili kubhuandu, “Kama Bwana ghwa majeshi atulekilepi kumbele uzao kwa ndabha jha tete, ngatujhele kama Sodoma, na ngatubhombibhu kama Gomora.
30 Tubetajobha bhuli? kwamba bhanu bha Mataifa ambabho bhajhele bhilondalepi haki, bhakabhili haki, haki kwa amani.
31 Lakini Israeli, ambajhe elondili sheria jha haki, ajhifikilepi.
32 Kwandajhakiki naha lepi? Kwandabha bhajhilondilepi kwa imani, bali kwa matendo. Bhakhobhele panani pa liganga lya kukhobhala,
33 kama kyajhelembibhu, “Langayi, niligonisi liganga lya kwikungufula mu Sayuni ni mwamba bhwa kudula. Muene ambajhe ikiera kwa e'le ibetalepi kwikosya soni.”
