Bharumi 11:1-22

¹Basi nijobha, je, K'yara abhabelili bhanu bha muene? Hata kidusu. Kwa kujha nene kabhele na Mwiisraeli, ghwa lukholo lwa Abrahamu, ghwa likabila lya Benyamini.

²K'yara abhabelilepi bhanu bha muene, bhaabhamanyili kuhoma kubhwandeli. Je mumanyilepi liandiku lijobhabhuli kuhusu Eliya, namna kyaan'sihili K'yara panani pa bha Israeli?

³“Bwana, bhabhakhomili manabii bhajhobhi, ni bhene bhabomuili madhabahu gha jhobhi. Nene ne muene nisiele, ni bhene bhilonda uhai bhwa nene.”

⁴Lakini lijibu lya K'yara lijobhuli kwa bhebhe? “Nitunzili kwandabha jha nene bhanu elfu saba ambabho bhakampigila lepi magoti Baali.”

⁵Hata nahu, wakati obho bhwa henu kabhele bhajhele bhabhasiele kwa ndabha jha uchaguzi bhwa neema.

⁶Lakini jhikajhiajhi kwa neema, sio kabhele kwa matendo, finginefyo neema jhibetalepi kujha kabhele neema.

⁷Kiki kabhele? Lijambo ambalyo Israeli akajha akalilonda, akikabhi lepi, bali bhateule bhakikabhili, ni bhamana bhajhongesibhu uzito.

⁸Ni kama kyajhilembibhu: “K'yara abhapelili roho jha ubutu, mihu ili bhasibhone, ni mb'ol'okhoto ili bhasipel'eki mpaka lelu ejhe.”

⁹Ni muene Daudi ijobha, “Silekajhi meza sya bhene sijhelayi mikwabhu, miteghu, sehemu jha kwikungufula ni kulepesya kisasi dhidi jha bhene.

¹⁰Ghalekayi mihu gha bhene ghasopibhwayi ngisi ili bhasibhwesi kulola. Ukabhajhinimisiajhi migongo ghya bhene daima.”

¹¹Basi nijobha, “Je, bhakikungufuili bila kubina?” Jhisijhi naha kamwe. Badala jhiake, kwa kusindwa kwa bhene, bhwokovu bhufikili kwa bha Mataifa, ili bhabho bhene bhajhelayi ni bhuifu.

¹²Henu jhikajhiajhi kusindwa kwa bhene ndo utajiri bhwa ulimwengu ni kama hasara jha bhene ndo utajiri bhwa mataifa, ndo kiasi khelekhu nesu kibetakujha kukamilika kwa bhene?

¹³Ni henu nilongela namu bhanu bha Mataifa. Kwa kujha na mtume kwa bhanu bha Mataifa ghangi, ni kwifunila huduma jha jhoni.

¹⁴Labda nibetakubhapela bhwifu bhabhajhele mb'el'e umonga ni nene. Labda twibeta kubhaokola baadhi jha bhene.

¹⁵Ndabha jhikajhelayi kubelekeli bhwa kwa bhene ndo maridhiano gha dunia, kupokelibhwa kwa bhene kubetakujha bhuli ili bhuomi kuhoma kwa bhafu?

¹⁶Kama matunda gha kubhwandu ndo akiba, ndo kyajhijhele ku lidonge lya sembe. Kama mzizi ndo akiba, matawi ni ghene.

¹⁷Lakini kama baadhi jha matafi ghadumulibhu, kama bhebhe litafi lya mudasi lya misyongoti, bhwapandibhu pagati pa bhene, ni kama ghwashiriki pamonga ni bhene mu mizizi ghya utajiri bhwa misyongoti,

¹⁸usikitufyi panani pa matafi. Lakini kama ukisifila, bhebhelepi jhaukajhitangatila mizizi bali mizizi ghikutangatila bhebhe.

¹⁹Basi wibetakujobha, “Matafi ghadumulibhu ili nikabhayi kupandikisibhwa mu lishina.”

²⁰Ejhu ndo kweli. Kwa ndabha jha kutokukiera kwa bhene bhadumulibhu, lakini bhebhe ghwajhemili imara kwandabha jha imani jha jhobhi. Usikifikiriri ghwe muene kwa hali jha panani nesu, bali tilayi.

²¹Kwa ndabha akajhiajhi k'yara aghalekilepi mataifa gha asili, ibetalepi kuhurumila bhebhe kabhele.

²²Langayi, basi, matendo manofu ni bhukali bhwa K'yara. Kwa lubhafu lumonga, ukalibhwahidili panani pa Bhayahudi ambabho bhabinili. Lakini kwa lubhafu longi bhwema bhwa K'yara bhwihida panani pa jhobhi kam wibeta kudumu mu wema bhwa muene. La sivyo ni bhebhe wibetakudumulibhwa patali.
