9Zitatha izi ndinayangʼana patsogolo panga ndipo ndinaona gulu lalikulu la anthu loti munthu sangathe kuliwerenga lochokera dziko lililonse, fuko lililonse, mtundu wa anthu uliwonse ndi chiyankhulo chilichonse, atayima patsogolo pa mpando waufumu, pamaso pa Mwana Wankhosa. Iwo anali atavala mikanjo yoyera ndi kunyamula nthambi za kanjedza mʼmanja mwawo. 10Ndipo ankafuwula mokweza kuti:
“Chipulumutso chimachokera kwa Mulungu wathu,
wokhala pa mpando waufumu
ndi kwa Mwana Wankhosa.”
11“Angelo onse anayimirira kuzungulira mpando waufumu uja, kuzunguliranso akuluakulu aja ndi zamoyo zinayi zija. Angelo aja anadzigwetsa pansi chafufumimba patsogolo pa mpando waufumu napembedza Mulungu. 12Iwo anati,
“Ameni!
Matamando ndi ulemerero,
nzeru, mayamiko, ulemu,
ulamuliro ndi mphamvu
zikhale kwa Mulungu wathu kunthawi zanthawi,
Ameni!”
13Pamenepo mmodzi wa akuluakulu aja anandifunsa kuti, “Kodi avala mikanjo yoyerawa ndani ndipo akuchokera kuti?”
14Ine ndinayankha kuti, “Mbuye wanga mukudziwa ndinu.”
Tsono iye anandiwuza kuti, “Amenewa ndi amene anatuluka mʼmazunzo aakulu aja. Anachapa mikanjo yawo naziyeretsa mʼmagazi a Mwana Wankhosa. 15Nʼchifukwa chake,
“iwowa ali patsogolo pa mpando waufumu wa Mulungu
ndipo akutumikira usana ndi usiku mʼNyumba ya Mulungu;
ndipo Iye wokhala pa mpando waufumu
adzawaphimba ndi tenti yake.
16‘Iwowa sadzamvanso njala,
sadzamvanso ludzu,
dzuwa kapena kutentha kulikonse
sikudzawawotcha.’
17Pakuti Mwana Wankhosa amene ali pakati pa mpando waufumu
adzakhala mʼbusa wawo.
‘Iye adzawatsogolera ku akasupe a madzi amoyo.’
‘Ndipo Mulungu adzawapukuta misozi yonse mʼmaso mwawo.’ ”
