Joeli 2:1-32
2 “Amulizye mweembo mu Ziyoni!+
Amoongolole loongololo lwankondo mucilundu cangu cisalala.
Bantu boonse bakkala mucisi* abakankame,Nkaambo buzuba bwa Jehova bulaboola!+ Buli afwaafwi!
2 Mbuzuba bwamudima akusiya,+Mbuzuba bwamakumbi amudima uusiya mbi,+Mbuli mumuni wakubucedo uuyaabungwengwemuka amalundu.
Kuli bantu banji kapati alimwi basinguzu;+Takunabede bantu bali boobu kuzwa lili alili,Alimwi takukabi limbi ibambi bali mbuli mbaboMumyaka yamazyalani oonse.
3 Kumbele lyabo mulilo uyaabuumpa,Alimwi kusyule lyabo mabangabanga aamulilo alaumpa cakumaninina.+
Nyika iili kumbele lyabo ili mbuli muunda wa Edeni,+Pele kusyule lyabo kuli nkanda iinyonyookede,Alimwi kunyina cintu cikonzya kufwutuka.
4 Balibonya mbuli mabbiza,Alimwi babalika mbuli mabbiza aankondo.+
5 Mijinci yabo ilimvwisya mbuli nkalaki nibasotauka atala aamalundu,+Mbuli kupasauka kwamulilo uuvwilima uumpa makuba.
Bali mbuli nkamu yabantu basinguzu, ibaimvwi mumindando kabalibambilide kulwana nkondo.+
6 Bantu bayoopenga kapati akaambo kambabo.
Boonse bayoolibonya kulibilika kumeso.
7 Balabalika mbuli basinguzu,Batanta bwaanda mbuli basikalumamba,Umwi aumwi ulazumanana kweenda munzila yakwe,Tabaleyi kuzwa munzila zyabo pe.
8 Tabatonkani pe akati kabo;Umwi aumwi uluujisi kuya kumbele munzila yakwe.
Ikuti bamwi bawisyigwa azilwanyo,*Aaba bamwi tabamwaiki pe kuzwa mumindando yabo.
9 Balawuumuka kunjila mumunzi, balabalika abwaanda.
Balatanta aamaanda, balainda mumawindo mbuli mubbi.
10 Nyika yazungaana kumbele lyabo, aalo majulu ayuuntana.
Zuba amwezi zyasiya,+Azyalo nyenyeezi zyaleka kumweka.
11 Jehova uyakoompolola ajwi lipati kumbele lyampi yakwe,+ nkaambo nkamu yakwe nimpati kapati.+
Nkaambo ooyo uuzuzikizya jwi lyakwe ngusinguzu;Nkaambo buzuba bwa Jehova mbupati alimwi bulayoosya kapati.+
Ino nguni uukonzya kuliyumya kulimbubo?”+
12 “Pele noliba lino,” mbwaamba Jehova, “amujokele kulindime amyoyo yanu yoonse,+Cakuliimya kulya,+ cakulila alimwi acakoomoka.
13 Amuzapaule myoyo yanu,+ ikutali zisani zyanu pe,+Mujokele kuli Jehova Leza wanuNkaambo ngusilweetelelo* alimwi ngusiluse, tafwambaani kukalala+ alimwi ulizwide luyando lutamani,+Eelyo ulacinca mizeezo* akutaleta mapenzi.
14 Ino nguni uuzyi ambweni ulajokoloka akucinca mizeezo*+Akumusiila cileleko,Cituuzyo camaila alimwi acituuzyo cinyugwa izyakutuulila Jehova Leza wanu?
15 Amulizye mweembo mu Ziyoni!
Amwaambilizye* ciindi cakuliimya kulya; amwiite bantu kumuswaangano uusetekene.+
16 Amubunganye bantu; amusalazye mbungano.+
Amubabunganye bapati;* amubunganye bana alimwi abavwanda.+
Sibwiinga azwe muŋanda yakwe yamukati, awalo nabwiinga azwe muŋanda mwaalede.
17 Akati kakkoce acipaililo+Bapaizi, ibabelesi ba Jehova abalile akwaamba kuti:
‘O Jehova, kobeetelela bantu bako;Lukono lwako utalupi kuba cintu cisampaulwa,Kuti masi abeendelezye.
Nkaambo nzi bantu bamasi ncobeelede kwaamba kuti, “Ino uli kuli Leza wabo?”’+
18 Mpoonya Jehova uyoosungwaalila cisi cakweAkubafwida lubomba bantu bakwe.+
19 Jehova uyoobavwiila bantu bakwe kuti:
‘Amubone, ndilamutumina maila, waini mupya alimwi amafwuta,Eelyo ncobeni muyookkuta;+Tandikamupi limbi kuba cintu cisampaulwa akati kamasi.+
20 Muntu wakunyika ndiyoomutandila kulamfwu andinywe;Ndiyoomumwaila kunyika njumu iilunda kasuko alimwi iinyonyookede,Basikalumamba bakwe bakumbele bayoogama kulwizi lwakujwe*Mpoonya basikalumamba bakwe bamusyule bayoogama kulwizi lwakumbo.*
Lino kununka kwakwe kuyoogwitila,Alimwi keema kakwe kabyaabi kanakuujisi kugwitila;+Nkaambo Leza uyoocita zintu zipati.’
21 Utayoowi, onyika.
Kokondwa akusekelela, nkaambo Jehova uyoocita zintu zipati.
22 Mutayoowi pe, nywebo nobanyama bamusyokwe,Nkaambo macelelo aamunkanda ayoofwefwema,+Azyalo zisamu ziyoozyala micelo;+Mukuyu alimwi amusaansa ziyoozyala kapati.+
23 Nywebo nobana bamu Ziyoni, amukondwe akusekelela muli Jehova Leza wanu;+Nkaambo uyoomupa mvwula yakusaanguna yeelede,Alimwi uyoomuwisyila mvwula yamucobocobo,Imvwula yakusaanguna amvwula yakumamanino, mbubonya mbuli kaindi.+
24 Mabuwa aakuumina maila ayoozula maila aapupuludwe,Azyalo zikandilo zyamisaansa ziyoozula waini mupya alimwi amafwuta.+
25 Ndiyoomujolela zintu nzimwakasweekelwa mumyaka iilyaNocakalya cikwikwi, cisozi citakwe mababa, cisozi cilya kapati, alimwi acikwikwi cinyonyoona,Impi yangu mpati njindakatuma akati kanu.+
26 Ncobeni muyoolya mane mukakkute,+Eelyo muyootembaula zina lya Jehova Leza wanu,+Ooyo wamucitila zintu zigambya;Bantu bangu tabakausyigwi limbi nsoni pe.+
27 Eelyo nywebo muyoozyiba kuti ndili akati ka Israyeli+Akuti ndime Jehova Leza wanu,+ kunyina uumbi pe!
Bantu bangu tabakausyigwi limbi nsoni pe.
28 Kuzwa waawo ndiyootila muuya wangu+ amuntu uuli woonse,Eelyo bana banu basankwa abasimbi bayoosinsima,Bamadaala banu bayoolota ziloto,Abalo balombwana banu bayoobona zilengaano.+
29 Alimwi naaba abazike bangu basankwa abasimbiNdiyootila muuya wangu mumazuba aayo.
30 Alimwi ndiyoocita zintu zigambya* kujulu alimwi aanyika,Bulowa, mulilo alimwi amisumpuululu yabusi.+
31 Izuba liyoosandulwa kuba mudima, awalo mwezi uyooba bulowa+Kabutanasika buzuba bwa Jehova bupati alimwi ibuyoosya.+
32 Lino muntu woonse wiita zina lya Jehova uyoofwutulwa;+Nkaambo mu Cilundu ca Ziyoni alimwi amu Jerusalemu kunooli bantu ibayoofwutuka,+ mbubonya mbwaamba Jehova,Kunooli basikufwutuka aabo Jehova mbaita.”
