17 Kamba matambi gayagwe ga mzeituni wamumgunda gakanhigwa na tambi da mzeituni wa kumuhulo diombekigwa, avo mweye wanhu hamwili Wayahudi wao tambi da mzeituni wa kumuhulo. Sambi momweda kwa kupata vinhu vingi vinogile kulawa kwa Wayahudi.
18 Avo sekemuwabeze waja wose wakanhigwe kamba matambi, moigodela choni? Mweye mwa matambi, hamuigogeleza mizizi, ila mizizi yowagogeleza mweye.
19 Lakini molonga, “Matambi gakanhigwa muladi niye niombekigwe mmwake.”
20 Ona molonga. Wakanhigwa kwavija hawatogole, mweye musola hanhu hao kwavija mutogola. Lakini sekemuigodele mbuli ayo, ila dumbeni.
21 Kamba Mulungu kagakanha matambi gakalile hanhu hake, vino viugesa kokonela bazi gweye?
22 Loleni Mulungu viyeli na bazi na viyeliduhu mwangalo. Mulungu kaduhu mwangalo kwa waja watendile nzambi, lakini kokonela bazi kamba wahagendelela kutamanila bazi jake. Wahaleka kutenda avo vivija kokanhigwa.
23 Wayahudi wahaleka kulema kutogola kwao, woombekigwa kabili, kwavija Mulungu kodaha kuwaombeka kabili.
24 Mweye wanhu hamwili Wayahudi mukanhigwa kulawa mumzeituni wa kumuhulo na muombekigwa mumzeituni wa mumgunda, hanhu haheli henu, avo vibuha ng'hani kwa Mulungu kugaombeka matambi gakanhigwe mumbiki wao wenyego.
25 Ndugu zangu, nolonda muijuwe mbuli ino ifisigwe, muladi sekemuyone mwa wabala ng'hani, Wayahudi hawamtegeleze Mulungu kwa kipindi kidodo, mbaka wanhu haweli Wayahudi walondeke kumbwelela Mulungu wenele.
26 Wanhu wose wa Izilaeli wokomboligwa, kamba vigalonga Maandiko Gang'alile, “Mkombola kokwiza kulawa Sayuni kowatenda wanhu wa lukolo lwa Yakobo waleke nzambi zao.
27 Vino vivo vonda niilagane nao, nahasegeza nzambi zao.”
28 Kwavija Wayahudi wailema Mbuli Inogile, waihila na Mulungu mbuli ya mweye wanhu hamwili Wayahudi. Lakini kwavija wasaguligwa, wang'hali wonogeligwa na Mulungu mbuli ya wahenga zao.
29 Kwavija Mulungu yahamsagula munhu na kumgwaa nhunza, hagesa habali yatendile vivo.
30 Baho umwaka mweye wanhu hamwili Wayahudi hamumtegeleze Mulungu, lakini sambi Mulungu kowonela bazi kwavija Wayahudi waleka kumtegeleza.
31 Vivo ili, kwavija Mulungu kawonela bazi mweye, na sambi Wayahudi nao hawamtegeleza Mulungu, muladi na wao vivija Mulungu yawonele bazi.
