14 Mpoonya mbungano yoonse yakatalika kuyoba, alimwi bantu bakazumanana kulila masiku oonse.+
2 Bana Israyeli boonse bakatalika kutongookela Musa a Aroni,+ alimwi mbungano yoonse yakabatongookela kaiti: “Anu nitwakafwida buyo mucisi ca Egepita naa kufwida buyo mumonya omuno munkanda!
3 Ino Jehova watuletela nzi kunyika eeyi kuti tuzoojazyigwe panga?+ Bamakaintu besu abana besu bayooba zisaalo.+ Sena inga tiicainda kubota kuti twapiluka buyo ku Egepita?”+
4 Mane bakasika nkobaambilana kuti: “Atusale musololi, tupiluke ku Egepita!”+
5 Aboobo Musa a Aroni bakavwuntama ansi kumbele lyambungano yoonse yabana Israyeli.
6 Eelyo Joshua+ imwana wa Nuni a Kalebe+ mwana wa Jefune, ibakali akati kabaabo bakaunkide kuyootwela nyika, bakazapula zisani zyabo,
7 mpoonya bakaambila mbungano yabana Israyeli yoonse kuti: “Inyika eeyo njitwakaakutwela ninyika mbotu kapati.+
8 Ikuti naa Jehova watukkomanina, masimpe uyootunjizya munyika eeyi akutupa njiyo, inyika iikunka buci amukupa.+
9 Pele mutamuzangili Jehova alimwi tamweelede kubayoowa bantu bamunyika eeyo,+ nkaambo tuyoobanyonyoona.* Bukwabilizi bwabo bwagwisyigwa kulimbabo, swebo Jehova ulaandiswe.+ Mutabayoowi pe.”
10 Nokuba boobo, mbungano yoonse yakatiibapwaye mabwe.+ Pele bulemu bwa Jehova bwakalibonya atala aatente lyakuswaanganina kubana Israyeli boonse.+
11 Mpoonya Jehova wakaambila Musa kuti: “Ino bantu aaba bayooleka lili kundisampaula,+ alimwi ino bayooleka lili kutandisyoma nokuba kuti ndakacita zitondezyo zyoonse eezyi akati kabo?+
12 Leka ndibaletele cilwazi akubanyonyoona, eelyo yebo ndilakucita kuba musyobo mupati alimwi uulaanguzu kwiinda mbabo.”+
13 Pele Musa wakati kuli Jehova: “Naa wacita oobo, bana Egepita bayoomvwa, ooko yebo munguzu zyako nkookagwisya bantu aaba,+
14 alimwi bayakwaambila bantu bamunyika eeyi makani aaya. Abalo aaba bakamvwa kuti yebo, O Jehova, ulaakati kabantu aaba+ alimwi wakalibonya caantangalala kulimbabo.+ Nduwe Jehova alimwi kkumbi lyako liliimvwi atala lyabo, ulabasololela mumusumpuululu wakkumbi syikati amumusumpuululu wamulilo masiku.+
15 Ikuti naa ubajaye bantu boonse aaba aciindi comwe,* mpoonya bamasi ibakamvwa mpuwo yako bayakwaamba kuti:
16 ‘Jehova wakaalilwa kunjizya bantu aaba munyika eeyo njaakakonkezya kuti uyoobapa, aboobo wakabajaya munkanda.’+
17 Lino akaka, O Jehova, inguzu zyako azikomene mbubonya mbookasyomezya kuti:
18 ‘Jehova, uutafwambi kukalala alimwi uuzwide luyando lutamani,+ uulekelela milandu azibi, nokuba boobo aabo babisya tabaleki buyo katabasubuli, uuleta cisubulo kubana, bazyukulu abazyukululwa akaambo kacibi cabamausyi.’+
19 Akaka kobalekelela cibi cabo bantu aaba kweelana aluyando lwako lupati lutamani, mbubonya mbowakabalekelela bantu aaba kuzwa ku Egepita kusikila lino.”+
20 Mpoonya Jehova wakaamba kuti: “Ndabalekelela kweelana ambowaamba.+
21 Nokuba boobo, mbubonya mbondili muumi, nyika yoonse iyoozula bulemu bwa Jehova.+
22 Pele kunyina muntu naba omwe iwabona bulemu bwangu alimwi azitondezyo zyangu+ nzyondakacita mu Egepita amunkanda pele iwazumanana kundisunka+ ziindi eezyi zili kkumi, alimwi iwataswiilila jwi lyangu,+
23 uuyoobona nyika njondakakonkezya kuli bamausyi. Kunyina naba omwe uutandilemeki uuyakwiibona.+
24 Pele akaambo kakuti mubelesi wangu Kalebe+ ulaamuuya wiindene alimwi wazumanana kunditobela camoyo woonse, ndiyoomunjizya munyika mwaakanjide kutwela, alimwi bana bakwe bayakwiikona.+
25 Mbwaanga bana Amaleki abana Kanana+ bakkala mukkuti,* nywebo juunza munyone akugama kunkanda kunzila yaku Lwizi Lusalala.”+
26 Mpoonya Jehova wakaambila Musa a Aroni kuti:
27 “Ino nkamu eeyi mbyaabi ilaleka lili kunditongookela?+ Ndakumvwa kutongooka bana Israyeli nkobanditongookela.+
28 Kobaambila kuti, ‘“Jehova waamba kuti, masimpe mbubonya mbondili muumi, ndilamucitila kweelana anzyondamvwa kamwaamba!+
29 Mitunta yanu iyoosyaala munkanda,+ inzya, boonse akati kanu ibalembedwe, nkokuti ibalaamyaka iili 20 kuya kumbele, nyoonse nomwanditongooka.+
30 Kunyina naba omwe wanu uuyoonjila munyika eeyo njindakakonkezya* kuti muyookkala mulinjiyo,+ pele buyo Kalebe imwana wa Jefune a Joshua imwana wa Nuni.+
31 “‘“Bana banu aabo mbumwakaamba kuti bayoosaalwa,+ aaba ndiyoobanjizya munyika eeyo, alimwi bayakwiizyiba nyika njimwakaka.+
32 Pele mitunta yanu iyoosyaala oomuno munkanda.
33 Lino bana banu bayooba beembezi munkanda myaka iili 40,+ alimwi bayoopenga akaambo kakutasyomeka* kwanu, kusikila wamamanino akati kanu akafwe munkanda.+
34 Mbubonya mbuli mweelwe wamazuba ngomwakatwela nyika, nkokuti mazuba aali 40,+ buzuba bomwe bulaba mwaka omwe, buzuba bomwe mwaka omwe, muyoosubulwa myaka iili 40+ akaambo kamilandu yanu, eelyo muyoozyiba ncocaamba kukazyanya andime.*
35 “‘“Mebo nde Jehova ndaamba. Oobu mbondiyoocita kunkamu eeyi mbyaabi, kulibaabo bandizangila: Bayoomana kufwa munkanda oomu.+
36 Baalumi aabo mbaakatuma Musa kuti bakatwele nyika alimwi ibakapa kuti mbungano yoonse italike kumutongookela kwiinda mukuleta mulumbe mubi kujatikizya nyika,+
37 inzya, baalumi aabo ibakaleta mulumbe mubi kujatikizya nyika bayoojaigwa kubusyu bwa Jehova.+
38 Pele buyo Joshua mwana wa Nuni a Kalebe mwana wa Jefune, akati kabaalumi ibakali mukutwela nyika mbabayoozumanana kupona.”’”+
39 Musa naakabaambila makani aaya bana Israyeli boonse, bakatalika kulila kapati.
40 Alimwi nobwakaca bakafwuma kuti baunke atala aacilundu, kabaamba kuti: “Atweende kubusena oobo Jehova mbwaakaamba, nkaambo twabisya.”+
41 Pele Musa wakati: “Ino nkaambo nzi ncomusotoka malailile aa Jehova? Eeco ncomuyanda kucita tacikonzyi kuzwidilila pe.
42 Mutaunki pe, nkaambo Jehova tali akati kanu; bayoomuzunda basinkondonyoko.+
43 Nkaambo bana Amaleki abana Kanana nkobali kumbele lyanu,+ alimwi muyoojazyigwa panga. Nkaambo Jehova takooyooba andinywe akaambo kakuti mwakaleka kumutobela Jehova.”+
44 Nokuba boobo, bakaunka cankazi kutozya acilundu mpocili atala,+ pele bbokesi lyacizuminano ca Jehova tiilyakazwa munkambi alimwi awalo Musa tanaakazwa munkambi pe.+
45 Mpoonya bana Amaleki abana Kanana ibakali kukkala mucilundu eeco bakaselemuka akutalika kubajaya alimwi bakabamwaisya mane kusikila ku Horima.+
