Ecitabu ca Yoweli cayandikagwa omu mwâka gwa 400 embere ly’okuburhwa kwa Kristu. Cirhumanyisa obworhere bw’omulala gw’Abayahudi enyuma ly’okurhenga elubungo e Babeli: barhàgwerhe mwâmi, bàcisêza omu buyemêre bwâbo. Yoweli akolesa engerêrezo n’ebinwa by’abandi balêbi ba mîra, bwenêne bwenêne Ezekiyeli na Abudiya.

Yoweli ayâliza okuyandagalirwa kw’olubaga lwoshi lwa Nnâmahanga n’Omûka gwâge. Amango gw’Omucunguzi, obulêbi bwâge bwarhangira okuyunjula kurhenga amango Mûka Mwimâna ayandagaliraga Entumwa za Kristu, olusiku lukulu lwa Pentekoste lurhanzi. Petro Mutagatifit ayish’iderha ebinwa bya Yoweli omu nyigîrizo zâge (Ebj 2, 16-21). Yoweli ali mulêbi w’obuciyûnjuze. Ahûna abantu mpu bacishalise banakaz’ishenga bulya bwo buciyûnjuze bw’okuli. Bwayish’ija omu liturjiya y’Ekleziya omu mango ga Kwarezima.

I. Obuhanya bw’ enzige

Emirenge y’oburhè oku cihugo

2 Murhege okurhwiri mweshi bagula b’ecihugo, mufukûle amarhwiri ginyu mwe bantu b’e Yuda! Ka mwàrhenzir’ibona kwa bene oku omu mango ginyu, erhi amango ga bashakulûza binyu? 3 Mukushambâlirage abana binyu, n’abana binyu nabo bakubwîre abana bâbo, nabo abana bâbo bakubwîre iburha lyâbo. 4 Ngasi ehi akashôlero kàsizize omu myâka, hyâlìbwa n’enzige^a; ehi enzige zisizize hyâlibwa n’ebizindêre; ehi ebizindêre bisizize, hyâlìbwa n’amahanzi. 5 Tulûki, munalake mwe balalwe. Mwe banywi b’amanvu muvugumule emirenge kuli ogu mukenzi gw’amamvu g’ecikànga: murhakàcigalabu­lakwo. 6 Bulya ababisha barhêzire ecihugo câni, bali banji na ntwâli; amîno gabo nka ga ntale; orhubwâjigo rhwâbo nka rhwa nnina w’entale. 7 Banyônîre ishwa^b. Bankundulîre emburho bazishangula, bazivungunyula amashami, n’ebibabi byahonga. 8 Mubande endûlù ak’omuhya-kazi oli omu mishîbo^c alakira omulume oci­shuba amurhôla dubaduba. 9 Nta burherekêre^d oli obw’engano, oli obw’idivayi bucidwîrhe bwalerhwa omu ka-Nyamuzinda. Co cirhumire abadâhwa bali omu mishîbo, bo bajira omukolo gw’okurhumikira Nyakasane. 10 Ebishagala birhaciyimbwamwo akantu; obudaka buli omu mishîbo, bulya emyâka yahagwîrwe, nta mamvu, amavurha gahezire. 11 Mwe bahinzi mujâge omu mirhanyo; mubande endûlù mwe bakomâ b’ez’emizabibu: nta ngano, nta ntônyi ya murhobo gwa mizabibu, nta ciru entônyi nguma y’amavurha mahyahya. 12 Enkoma zahûzire, amashwa gajâmwo ecalânda, emyungu, emirehe n’ebijumbu, emyâka yoshi yayûmire. Ngasi masîma goshi gazimûsire omu bantu.

Omulali gw’okucîshalisa n’okuyakûza Nyakasane

13 Mwe badâhwa, yambali sunzu, muyakûze omu mirenge. Mwe barhumisi ba Nnâmahanga, muyishe, mugeze obudufu bwoshi muli sunzu. Bulya nta burherekêre bucidwîrhe bwalerhwa omu ka-Nyamuzinda^e, oli oburherekêre bw’engano, oli oburherekêre bw’idivayi. 14 Mwe bagula, mubwîre abantu boshi, murhegeke bacishalise, bajire olusiku lukulu omu ka-Nyamuzinda winyu. Muyakûze Nyamuzinda^f. 15 Loli oku olusiku lwa Nnâmahanga luyiruka, luyishire nka cizombo, nka câhirà carhenga emwa Nyamuzinda-Ogala-byoshi. 16 K’ebiryo birhârhuhirigirhaga omu masù, harhaciri masîma n’omwishingo omu ka-Nyamuzinda. 17 Emburho yàmiragwa yayûmîre omu malongo^g, enkuluba ziri bumu bumu, enguli zâshâbwa bulya murhacibà bici nta mahemba gaduga obuntu. 18 Yumvi oku ebishwêkwa bidwîrhe byalumba! Amasô g’enkafu gadwîrhe gahabuka omu malambo, gaja eyi n’eyi, erhi kubula aha gâkerera ku­rhuma, ciru n’ebibuzi ekola mihorhà.

Omusengero gw’omulêbi

19 Nnâmahanga, w’ono ndwîrhe nayakûza, bulya ecihugo cahìre mabira, emirhi yoshi yasingônosire. 20 Ebishwekwa byoshi byajongire omu masu gâwe, bulya enyîshi zoshi zaganyire, ecihugo cahya mabira^h.

Okuhuluza oku lwa-Nnâmahanga

1 Mubûhe emishekeraⁱ omu Siyoni^j, mubande orhuhabâbo oku ntondo nta­gatifu. Mugeremwo omusisi mwe bantu mweshi, bulya olwa-Nnàmaha­nga lwayishire, bulya luli hofi. 2 Lusiku lwa mwizimya n’olwikungu, lusiku luyunjwîre bitù n’omwizizi^k. Nka kula lukula arhanda emashinji, ntyo kwo engabo y’abantu yâpamuka erhasâg’ibonekana bundi, erhakanacibonekana ciru n’eligu­ma.

Okurhêrwa n’enzige

3 Embere zâbo, muliro, enyuma zâbo, nayo muliro. Ecihugo kwo ciri embere zâbo nk’ishwa lya Edene, enyuma zâbo ekola mpinga bwamwa! Ntâco câbafulumuka. 4 Eyo ngabo kwo eri nka biterusi, ababishonyirekwo baja babicinagiza^l. 5 Emidindiri yâbo nka ya mpanzi; baja bacimoga oku ntondo, balaza nka ngulumira ya muliro omu mushûshu gw’ecanda, cigamba ca ngabo ya balwî bakeresire n’amatumu. 6 Omu kubona ntyo, ebihugo bamârhoga n’obwôba, boshi bageramwo o­gwa nyegenye. Obusu bwahinduka. 7 Eyo ngabo yamâcinîka nka ntwâli zajilwa, yamagamaga oku byôgo, ngasi muguma gwâge mukâba^m. 8 Ntâye wasûnsunika wâbo, ngasi muguma n’enjira yâge, bacîkanika ekarhî k’emyampi buzira kushandabana. 9 Barhêra ecishagala, bacînika oku byôgo, bashonera oku nyumpa, bashe­shereramwo nka bishambo.

Okubonekerwa kw’olusiku lwa Nyakasane.

10 Amango ayisha, igulu lyâgeramwo omusisi, amalunga gadirhimane. lzûba n’omwêzi bijemwo omwizizi, n’enyenyêzi zizime. 11 Izù lya Nnâmahangaⁿ lyâyumvikane, ashokolire engabo zâge, bulya abamulwira bali banji, bulya ajira obuhashe bunji n’oku adesire kwo kunaba; Iuli lukulu olusiku lwa Nyamuzinda, lwa kuyôbohya, na ndi wankamuja emalanga?

Gakola mango g’okugaluka emwa Nyakasane

12 Gaciri mango g’okugaluka emunda ndi, kwo Nyakasane, adesire. Okwo mukujire n’omurhima gwinyu gwoshi: mucishalise, mulake munanyakûze. 13 Arhali myambalo yinyu yo musharhulage, ci murhima gwinyu gwo mu­kwânîne okuhindula. Neci, galuki emwa Nyakasane bulya ali mwonjo na mwinja, analegame omu kukaliha, ci mubidu omu kuhâna obwonjo, arhanakwirirwa mabi. 14 Kwankanaba anankahindwîre omuhìgo gwâge, anakuyunjuze mugìsho^o. Okubundi obwo, olerhere Nyamuzinda entûlo z’engano n’ìdìvayì. 15 Mubûhe omu mushekera e Sìyoni, muderhe bacishalise, bajire olusiku lukulu. 16 Muhamagale abantu, mulerhe engabo yoshi, mulâlike^p olubaga. Muhama­gale abashosi, mulerhe abana bacìri oku ìbêre lya bannina. Omu­ hya-mulume ahuluke omu mwage, n’omuhya w’emiramba arhenge omu kâ-buhya, boshì bazûke, bayìshe. 17 Kurhenga aha luso^q lw’aka-Nyamuzìnda kuhika aha luhêrero, abadâhwa ba Nnâmahanga bamulakire, bamubwîre, mpu: «Orhubabalire, mâshi Yagìrwa, obabalire olubaga lwâwe; orhabonese omwîmo gwâwe nsho­nyi, gulek’ishekerwa n’amashanja. Ka wâleka amashanja gakâderha, mpu: «Ngahi aligi olya Nyamuzìnda wâbo?»

Okuhwa kw’obuhanya: Okucunguka.

18 Nyakasane âyagalwa n’ecihugo câge, âcibera lukogo, âbabalira n’olubaga lwâge. 19 Nyakasane âshuza, âbwìre olubaga lwâge, erhì: «Lola oku namâku­rhumira engano, idivayi n’amavurha mahyahya. Wâyigurha, ohimbe. Ntakanacilonza abantu bakushekere erhì bakurhindibuze. 20 Abashombanyi bâwe bakayisha enyanya^r, nnambagalule, mbajûce oku ntuli n’oku manga. Ababashokolire nâbahirika omu nyanja ebwa bu­shoshôkero bw’izûba. Emirhumba yâbo yakaz’iyûdûkamwo akabayo kalumira omu cihugo coshi. Ntyo kwo bahungumuka balya boshi bàku­jirire amabî.»

Obulêbi bw’ebiryo binji

21 Mwe bantu, murhacìyôbohaga, musîme munacishinge, bulya Nyakasane akozire eby’enkwira. 22 Ninyu, mwe nsimba z’erubala, murhaciyôbohaga, obuhasi bwamezire, emirhi yayanyire amalehe, emizeti n’emizâbîbu bijagalîre malehe. 23 Ninyu, mwe bantu b’e Siyoni, shamambiri n’omwishingo, musîme muli Nyakasane, bulya obushinganyanya^s bwâge burhumire, ammuhîre e­nkuba, aniesize enkuba mpangûka omu mango gâyo, nk’oku byànalì burhanzi. 24 Enguli ziyunjwîre ngano, orhubindi rhwabulajika mavurha n’irivayi lihya­hya. 25 «Nammurhengize galya mango g’enzige n’amahanzi n’ebizindêre, zirya ngabo zâni nali mmurhumîre nti zimmuyônere emyâka yinyu. 26 Mwâlya, munayigurhe oku munalonzize, munaharâmye Nyamuzinda wi­nyu okola ebirhangâzo binji. Olubaga lwâni lurhakacibona nshonyi. 27 Lyo mumanya ntyo oku nie ndi ekarhî k’lsraheli, nie Nyakasane Nyamuzinda winyu, ci nta wundi Nyamuzinda. Nanga, nta mango olubaga lwâni lwâcibone nshonyi^t.

II.Amango mahyahya n’olusiku lwa Nyakasane

Nyakasane abulagira Mûka wâge oku bantu boshi

1 Enyuma ly’aho, nâdubulirakwo^u ngasi muntu Omûka^v gwâni. Bagala binyu na bâli binyu bakaz’ilêba, abashosi binyu bakaz’ilôrha ebyâbà, n’emi­sole yinyu ekaz’ibonekerwa. 2 Mw’ezo nsiku, ciru n’abaja n’abaja-kazi, nâbadubulirakwo Mûka gwâni. 3 Nâshub’ijira ebirhangâzo^w emalunga n’en’igulu, muko, muliro n’ecitù c’o­mugî.» 4 Izûba lyâshuba mwizizi, n’omwêzi guhinduke nka muko, embere Olusiku lwa Nyakasane luyishe, Lusiku luhamu lwa kujugumya! 5 Ngasi yeshi wâshenge izîno lya Nyakasane, oyo ye wananafulumuke. Nk’oku Nyakasane aderhaga, oku ntondo ya Siyoni kwabà abafulumu­sire, n’aha Yeruzalemu habà aba Nyakasane ahamagalire^x okulama.

Olubanja lwa Nnâmahanga oku mashanja

Cigabi ca 4 omu BHS, co ciciri ca 3 omu WLC

1 Muli ezo nsiku, nâshubiza Yuda na Yeruzalemu^y omu bworhere bwâge bwa burhanzi, kwo Nyakasane adesire. 2 Nâshubûza amashanja g’ihanga, ngayandagalize omu lubanda Iwa Yoza­fati^z. Ho nagajikiza lubanja kw’ebi gajirire olubaga lwâni lw’Israheli: balushandâzire omu mashanja g’ihanga banagabâna ecihugo câni. 3 Abantu bâni babagabânyire, babayesha cigole, abanarha-bana babahi­ndula mbaraga, n’abana-nyere bakaz’ibaguza mamvu bananywa. 4 Kwâgo kwâgo, mwe bishagala bya Tiri na Sidoni, bici mwandonzakwo? Ninyu mwe bihugo by’Abafilistini, ka mulonzize okucihôla kuli nie? Mumanyage, mukalonza mpu mwagereza okucihôla kuli nie, bwo na buno nammushangula amarhwe^a. 5 Mwarhôzire ensaranga zâni n’amasholo gâni, obuhirhi bwâni bwinjinja bwoshi mwazigulira emwinyu, mwajihira omu ngombe z’abazimu binyu. 6 Abasole b’e Yuda n’ab’e Yeruzalemu mwabaguza bujà emw’abantu b’e Yavâni^b mpu mubayâse ecihugo câbo. 7 Lero nkolaga nâbahamagala eyo munda mwàbagulîze, n’obwo buhanya bwoshi nâbudekereza oku irhwe linyu. 8 Bagala binyu na bâli binyu nâbaguliza bene Yuda, nabo babagulize Abasabeyi^c babà omu cihugo c’ekuli bwenêne. Ntyo kwo ndesire niono Nyakasane.

Okuhamagalwa kw’amashanja

9 Abantu boshi^d mubabwire ntya: Mucìrheganye oku matabâro. Hamagali entwâli, bayishe barhereme. 10 Mutule engôrho n’ebyuma binyu, emigushu yinyu mujiremwo amatumu^e, engonyi ederhe, erhi: «Ndi ntwâli.» 11 Bangâduki, nâyisha, mwe bihugo rhubibikînwe, mutwe akacâma hala. (Nnâmahanga, yandagaza entwâli^f zawe). 12 Mucîmoge, mwe lubaga, muyinamukire omu lubanda lwa Yozafati, bulya mwo nâbwarhala, ntwîre amashanja goshi olubanja. 13 Murhemage, mwayêzize, muhûle, munakande, emikenzi, enkuluba, byayunjwire. 14 Musiribulire mula lubanda lw’olubanja, bulya Nnâmahanga aling’itwîra olubanja omu lubanda lw’emihigo^g.

Olusiku lwa Nyakasane

15 Izûba n’omwêzi byabîre budufu, enyenyêzi zazima. 16 Nyamuzinda alumbîre e Siyoni, izu lyage liyumvikîne kurhenga e Yeruza­lemu, empingu n’igulu byageramwo omusisi. Ci kwône Nnâmahanga aba lwâkiro lw’olubaga lwâge, mpenzi y’abana b’Israheli. 17 Ho mwâmanyire oku nie Nyakasane Nyamuzinda winyu, obà e Siyoni, ntondo yâni ntagatifu. Yeruzalemu habà hantu hatagatifu^h, ebigolo bi­rhakacihalabarha.

Okushub’igaluka kw’obwami bw’lsraheli

18 Muli olwo lusiku entondo zahulula mamvu mahyahya, n’amarha oku rhu­rhondo. Emmanda za Yuda zoshi zahululamwo amîshi. Omu nyumpa ya Nnâmahanga mwarhenga enshôko yanywêsa akabanda ka Akasiyaⁱ. 19 Misiri abà cihugo cihehêrere, na Edomu yacîbêra mpinga bwâmwa, bulya abo bantu barhindibuzize bene Yuda, bàbulaziremwo muko munji gw’abêru-kwêru. 20 Ci kwônene Yuda ayûbakamwo ensiku zoshi, na Yeruzalemu agandâze iburha oku lindi. 21 Nâcîhôlera omuko gwabo, ntakalembera^j amabî, na Nyakasane agandika^k aha Siyoni.
