16 Chotero Yehova, Ambuye Wamkulu Koposa, wanena kuti: “Ndikuika mwala mu Ziyoni+ kuti ukhale maziko. Umenewu ndi mwala+ wapakona woyesedwa,+ wamtengo wapatali,+ woti ukhale maziko olimba.+ Palibe munthu woukhulupirira amene adzade nkhawa.+

7 Ngakhale pataikidwa chopinga chachikulu ngati phiri+ pamaso pa Zerubabele,+ chidzasalazidwa kukhala malo athyathyathya. Ndithu iye adzabweretsa mwala wotsiriza wa pakona.+ Akadzatero anthu adzafuula+ kuti: “Koma mwalawu ndiye ndi wokongola bwanji! Koma ndiye ndi wokongola!”’”+

17 Koma iye anawayang’ana ndi kunena kuti: “Pajatu malemba amati, ‘Mwala umene omanga nyumba anaukana,+ umenewu wakhala mwala wapakona wofunika kwambiri.’+ Kodi mawu amenewa amatanthauza chiyani?

11 Yesu ameneyu ndiye ‘mwala umene inu omanga nyumba munauona ngati wopanda pake, umene tsopano wakhala mwala wofunika kwambiri wapakona.’+

11 Pakuti palibe munthu wina amene angayale maziko ena+ alionse kupatulapo amene anayalidwawo, omwe ndi Yesu Khristu.+

20 Mwamangidwa pamaziko+ a atumwi+ ndi aneneri,+ ndipo Khristu Yesuyo ndiye mwala wapakona wa mazikowo.+

6 Pakuti Lemba limati: “Inetu ndikuika mwala m’Ziyoni, mwala wochita kusankhidwa mwapadera, wapakona pa maziko, wamtengo wapatali, ndipo aliyense woukhulupirira sadzakhumudwa.”+
