Mawu a Mulungu mu Chichewa Chalero
Bokosi la Chipangano Libwerera ku Israeli
6 Bokosi la Yehova linakhala mʼdziko la Afilisti kwa miyezi isanu ndi iwiri. 2 Tsono Afilisti anayitana ansembe ndi amawula ndipo anati, “Tichite nalo chiyani Bokosi la Yehova? Tiwuzeni momwe tidzalitumizira ku malo ake.”
3 Iwo anayankha kuti, “Ngati mufuna kubweza Bokosi la Mulungu wa Israeli, musalitumize wopanda kanthu, koma muyesetse kulitumiza pamodzi ndi nsembe yopepesera machimo. Mukatero mudzachiritsidwa, ndipo mudzadziwa chifukwa chiyani chilango cha Yehova sichikukuchokani.”
4 Afilisti anafunsanso kuti “Kodi ife tipereke nsembe yanji yopepesera machimo?”
Iwo anayankha kuti, “Mupereke zifanizo zagolide za zithupsa zisanu ndi zamakoswe asanu malingana ndi chiwerengero cha akalonga a Afilisti popeza mliri womwewo wagwera inu ndi akalonga anu. 5 Mupange zifanizo za zithupsa zisanu ndi za makoswe asanu amene akuwononga dziko lanu ndipo mupereke ulemu kwa Israeli. Mwina adzaleka kuzunza inu, milungu yanu ndi dziko lanu. 6 Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukuwumitsa mitima monga anachita Aigupto ndi Farao? Mulungu atawalanga anthu a ku Igupto aja kodi suja anawalola Aisraeli kuti azipita ndipo anapitadi?
7 “Tsopano konzani galeta latsopano limodzi ndiponso ngʼombe ziwiri zazikazi zamkaka zimene sizinavalepo goli. Muzimangirire ngʼombezo ku ngoloyo, koma ana awo muwachotse ndi kuwasiya kwanu. 8 Mutenge Bokosi la Yehova ndi kuliyika pa galetapo ndipo pambali pake pakhale Bokosi, mʼmene muyikemonso zinthu zagolide zomwe mukutumiza kwa Iye monga nsembe yopepesera machimo. Kenaka, mulisiye lizipita. 9 Koma muziliyangʼana. Ngati lilondola njira yopita kwawo kwa Bokosilo mpaka ku Beti-Semesi ndiye kuti amene watichita zoyipa zazikulu zoterezi ndi Mulungu wa Israeli. Koma ngati silitero, ife tidzadziwa kuti sanali Mulungu wa Israeli amene watizunza koma kuti zinangochitika mwatsoka.”
10 Anthu aja anachitadi zimenezi. Anatenga ngʼombe zamkaka ziwiri nazimanga ku galeta lija. Koma ana awo anawatsekera mʼkhola. 11 Tsono anayika Bokosi la Yehova pa galeta pamodzi ndi bokosi limene munali makoswe agolide ndi zifanizo zawo za zithupsa. 12 Ngʼombe zija zinapita molunjika kutsata msewu wopita ku Beti Semesi zikulira njira yonse. Sizinakhotere kumanja kapena kumanzere. Akalonga a Afilisti anazitsatira mpaka mʼmalire a Beti-Semesi.
13 Nthawi imeneyi anthu a ku Beti-Semesi amakolola tirigu mʼchigwa ndipo pamene anayangʼana ndi kuona Bokosi la Chipangano likubwera anakondwa. 14 Galeta lija linafika ku munda wa Yoswa ku Beti-Semesi ndipo linayima. Kumeneko kunali mwala waukulu. Tsono anthu anawaza nkhuni galetalo, ndipo anapha ngʼombe zija ndi kuzipereka ngati nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova. 15 Alevi nʼkuti atatsitsa Bokosi la Yehova, pamodzi ndi bokosi mmene munali zinthu zagolide, ndipo anawayika pa mwala uja waukulu. Tsiku limenelo anthu a ku Beti-Semesi anapereka nsembe yopsereza ndi nsembe zina kwa Yehova. 16 Atsogoleri asanu a Afilisti ataona izi anabwerera ku Ekroni tsiku lomwelo.
17 Zifanizo zagolide za zithupsa zimene Afilisti anatumiza ngati nsembe zopepesera machimo kwa Yehova zinkayimirira mizinda isanu iyi motere: chimodzi cha ku Asidodi, china cha ku Gaza ndi zina za ku Asikeloni, Gati ndi Ekroni. 18 Ndipo chiwerengero cha zifanizo za makoswe chinali chofanana ndi chiwerengero cha mizinda ya akalonga asanu a Afilisti. Mizindayi inali yotetezedwa bwino ndi ina yapamtetete. Mwala waukulu umene anayikapo Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova mʼmunda mwa Yoswa ku Beti-Semesi uli ngati mboni mpaka lero.
19 Yehova anakantha amuna a ku Beti-Semesi 70 chifukwa anasuzumira mʼBokosi la Chipangano cha Yehova. Ndipo anzawo analira chifukwa Yehova anawalanga kwambiri. 20 Tsono anthu a ku Beti-Semesi anafunsa, “Ndani angathe kuyima pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu Woyera? Bokosi la Chipanganoli lipita kuti likachoka pano?”
21 Tsono iwo anatumiza a mithenga kwa anthu a ku Kiriati-Yearimu kuti, “Afilisti atibwezera Bokosi la Yehova. Bwerani kuno mudzalitenge, mupite nalo kwanuko.”
