Zakariya 4:1-14
4 Anju akhalonga na ine abwera pontho, mbandilamusa ninga pinacitwa kuna munthu wakuti akugona.
2 Buluka penepo iye andibvundza: “Ninji pinaona iwe?”
Natenepa ine ndatawira: “Ndiri kuona cakuikhira nyale cakuti cacitwa na ouro,+ padzulu paco pana tijela. Cakuikhira nyale ceneci ciri na nyale zinomwe,+ inde, zinomwe, pontho nyale zenezi zakuti ziri padzulu pa cakuikhira nyale, ziri na matubu manomwe.
3 Nʼkhundu mwa cakuikhira nyale ceneci, muli na miti miwiri ya milivera,+ ubodzi uli kukhundu yamadyo ya tijela, unango uli kukhundu yabzwere.”
4 Buluka penepo ine ndabvundza anju akhalonga na ine: “Mbuyanga, pinthu pyenepi pisabvekanji?”
5 Natenepa, anju akhalonga na ine andibvundza: “Kodi iwe nkhabe dziwa mabvekero a pinthu pyenepi?”
Ine ndatawira: “Nkhabe mbuyanga.”
6 Buluka penepo iye andipanga: “Awa ndi mafala a Yahova kuna Zorobhabhele: ‘“Pinthu pyenepi pyonsene nee pinadzacitika na mphambvu ya nsoka wa anyankhondo, nee na mphambvu za anthu,+ mbwenye na nzimu wanga,”+ alonga Yahova wa anyankhondo.
7 Ndiwe ani iwe phiri ikulu? Pamaso pa Zorobhabhele+ iwe unadzakhala mbuto yakuzwerera.+ Iye anadzabweresa mwala wapadzulu, pontho anthu anadzakhuwa: “Wabalika kakamwe! Wabalika kakamwe!”’”
8 Ndatambira pontho mafala a Yahova mbalonga:
9 “Manja a Zorobhabhele ndiwo adatoma kuikha miyala ya nyumba ineyi,+ pontho manja ace ndiwo anadzafuna kuimalisa.+ Iwe unadzadziwa kuti Yahova wa anyankhondo ndiye adandituma kuna imwe.
10 Kodi alipo asafunika kupwaza ntsiku yakutoma na pinthu pyakucepa?*+ Thangwi iwo anadzatsandzaya, pontho anadzaona nkhambala yakundendemeza nayo* mʼmanja mwa Zorobhabhele. Manomwe awa ndi maso a Yahova, akuti asaona pa dziko yonsene yapantsi.”+
11 Buluka penepo ine ndambvundza: “Kodi miti iyi miwiri ya milivera, yakuti ubodzi uli kukhundu yamadyo, unango uli kukhundu yabzwere ya cakuikhira nyale, isabvekanji?”+
12 Ine ndambvundza pontho: “Zisaimiriranji nthawi* ziwiri za milivera zakuti zisadjodjesa nʼtijela mafuta akulandana na ouro, akuti asabuluka na mʼmatubu mawiri a ouro?”
13 Natenepa iye andibvundza: “Kodi iwe nkhabe kudziwa mabvekero a pinthu pyenepi?”
Ine ndatawira: “Nkhabe mbuyanga.”
14 Iye alonga: “Anewa ndi anyakudzodzwa awiri akuti alimira nʼkhundu mwa Mbuya wa pa dziko yonsene yapantsi.”+
