Efiku lOmwene tali uya
1 Tala, osheshi efiku tali uya, ndele tali xwama ngaashi ediko. Opo ovashishimani aveshe, naaveshe ava hava longo owii, tava ka ninga oihati. Mefiku olo tali uya, tali ke va lungwinifa po, Omwene womatanga ovakwaita ta ti. Opo muvo itamu fyaala nande omudi ile oshitai. 2 Ndelenee nye ava hamu tila edina lange, etango louyuki tali ke mu pitila, neveluko koshi yomavava alo. Ndele nye tamu ka pita mo nokunhuka ngaashi eenhaanguda, da dja moshinyongo. 3 Ndele nye otamu ka lyataula ovadinikalunga, osheshi vo otava ka ninga ngaashi ondwi koshi yeemhadi deni mefiku olo Ame handi shiti, Omwene womatanga ovakwaita ta ti.
4 Dimbulukweni omhango yaMoses, omupiya wange, ei Ame nde i mu lombwela kuHoreb, i ninge eenghedimhango noipango kuIsrael ashishe.
5 Taleni, Ame handi tumu kunye omuxunganeki Elia, fimbo efiku olo linene nolitilifa lOmwene inali uya. 6 Ndele ye ota ka alula omitima dooxe kovana, nomitima dovana kooxe, opo ndihe uye ndi denge edu nefingo.
The Day of the Lord Is Coming
1 The Lord Almighty says, “The day is coming when all proud and evil people will burn like straw. On that day they will burn up, and there will be nothing left of them. 2 But for you who obey me, my saving power will rise on you like the sun and bring healing like the sun's rays. You will be as free and happy as calves let out of a stall. 3 On the day when I act, you will overcome the wicked, and they will be like dust under your feet.
4 “Remember the teachings of my servant Moses, the laws and commands which I gave him at Mount Sinai for all the people of Israel to obey.
5 “But before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes, I will send you the prophet Elijah. 6 He will bring fathers and children together again; otherwise I would have to come and destroy your country.”
