Ekisodo 15:1-27
15 Pa nyengo yira, Mozesi na Ŵaisrayeli ŵakimbira Yehova sumu iyi:+
“Lekani niyimbire Yehova, pakuti wakwezgeka chomene.+
Waponya mu nyanja hachi na wakukwerapo wake.+
2 Ya* ni nkhongono zane na lusoko lwane, pakuti wazgoka chiponosko chane.+
Uyu ni Chiuta wane, ndipo nimulumbenge.+ Ni Chiuta wa adada,+ nimukwezgenge.+
3 Yehova ntchinkhara pa nkhondo.+ Zina lake ni Yehova.+
4 Waponya mu nyanja magileta gha Farawo na ŵasilikari ŵake,+Ŵasilikari ŵake ŵakusoleka ŵabira mu Nyanja Yiswesi.+
5 Vimaji vyakututuka vikaŵabenekelera. Ŵakabira pasi nga ni libwe.+
6 A Yehova, woko linu lamalyero ndankhongono chomene,+A Yehova, woko linu lamalyero likuvikita mulwani.
7 Chifukwa cha ukuru winu, mukuponya pasi awo ŵakwimikana namwe,+Mukutumizga ukali winu wakugolera, ndipo ukuŵanyekeska nga ntchipundwe.
8 Na mvuchi wa mu mphuno zinu, maji ghakawunjikana pamoza,Ghakimilira nga ntchiliŵa,Vimaji vikawunjikana pakati pa nyanja.
9 Mulwani wakati: ‘Niŵalondenge! Namuŵasanga!
Namugaŵa katundu wawo m’paka nikhorwe!*
Nisolorenge lupanga lwane! Woko lane lamuŵathereska!’+
10 Mukaphuta mvuchi winu ndipo nyanja yikaŵabenekelera,+Ŵakabira nga ni muthovu* mu maji ghankhongono.
11 A Yehova, ni njani pakati pa ŵachiuta uyo wali nga ndimwe?+
Ni njani uyo wali nga ndimwe, pakulongora utuŵa ukuru?+
Ndimwe ŵakwenelera kumopani na kumwimbirani sumu zamalumbo, ndimwe mukuchita vyakuzizwiska.+
12 Mukanyoloska woko linu lamalyero, ndipo charu chikaŵamira.+
13 Na lusungu* lwinu, mwalongozga ŵanthu awo mwaŵawombora.+Na nkhongono zinu, muŵalongozgerenge ku malo ghinu ghatuŵa uko mwamukhala.
14 Ŵanthu ŵazamupulika,+ ndipo ŵazamunjenjemera,Ŵanthu ŵa ku Filisitiya ŵazamupulika vyakuŵinya.*
15 Pa nyengo iyo, mafumu gha ku Edomu ghazamuwopa,Ndipo ŵawusi ŵankhongono* ŵa ku Mowabu ŵazamumbwambwantha.+
Ŵanthu wose ŵa mu Kenani mitima yizamusongonoka.+
16 Chitenthe na wofi vizamuŵawira.+
Chifukwa cha ukuru wa woko linu, ŵazamukhala waka chete nga ni libwe,M’paka ŵanthu ŵinu ŵajumphe, A Yehova,M’paka ŵanthu awo mukapanga+ ŵajumphe.+
17 Mwizenge nawo na kuŵapanda mu phiri la chiharo chinu,+Malo agho muli kunozga kuti mukhalengemo, A Yehova,Malo ghakupatulika, agho ghali kwimikika na mawoko ghinu, A Yehova.
18 Yehova wawusenge nga ni themba muyirayira swii.+
19 Mahachi gha Farawo pamoza na magileta ghake gha nkhondo na ŵakukwera pa mahachi ŵakati ŵanjira mu nyanja,+Yehova wakawezgerapo maji gha mu nyanja ndipo ghakaŵabenekelera,+Kweni Ŵaisrayeli ŵakenda pakomira pakati pa nyanja.”+
20 Penepapo Miriyamu ntchimi, mudumbu wa Aroni, wakatora kang’oma mu woko lake, ndipo ŵanakazi wose ŵakamulondezga na tung’oma na kuvina.
21 Miriyamu wakimba mwakukoŵerana na ŵanalume kuti:
“Yimbirani Yehova, chifukwa wakwezgeka chomene.+
Waponya mu nyanja hachi na wakukwerapo wake.”+
22 Pamasinda, Mozesi wakalongozga Israyeli kufuma pa Nyanja Yiswesi na kuluta mu mapopa gha Shura. Ŵakenda mazuŵa ghatatu mu mapopa, kweni ŵakasangamo maji yayi.
23 Ŵakati ŵafika ku Mara,*+ ŵakatondeka kumwa maji gha ku Mara chifukwa ghakaŵa ghakuŵaŵa. Lekani wakathyapo zina lakuti Mara.
24 Ntheura ŵanthu ŵakamba kudinginyikira* Mozesi,+ kuti: “Kasi timwengechi?”
25 Mozesi wakalira kwa Yehova,+ ndipo Yehova wakamulongora khuni. Mozesi wakati waponya khuni ili mu maji, maji ghakazgoka ghawemi.
Penepapo Chiuta wakaŵaŵikira dango na chakuwonerapo cha cheruzgo, ndipo wakaŵayezga.+
26 Iyo wakati: “Usange mupulikirenge nadi mazgu gha Yehova Chiuta winu na kuchita icho ntchakunyoloka mu maso ghake ndiposo kuthya khutu linu ku malango ghake na kusunga ulongozgi wake wose,+ nthenda izo nkhakhizgira pa Ŵaeguputo+ nizenge nazo chara pa imwe, chifukwa ine Yehova, nkhumuchizgani imwe.”+
27 Pamanyuma, ŵakafika ku Elimu uko kukaŵa visimi 12 vya maji na makuni 70 gha mikama. Ndipo ŵakajintha mahema ghawo pafupi na maji.
