Context

14Ni nani ajuaye? Yeye aweza kugeuka na kuwa na huruma na kuacha baraka nyuma yake: sadaka za nafaka na sadaka za vinywaji kwa ajili ya Bwana Mungu wenu. 15Pigeni tarumbeta katika Sayuni, tangazeni saumu takatifu, liiteni kusanyiko takatifu. 16Wakusanyeni watu, wekeni wakfu kusanyiko; waleteni pamoja wazee, wakusanyeni watoto, wale wanyonyao maziwa. Bwana arusi na atoke chumbani mwake na bibi arusi naye atoke katika chumba chake. 17Makuhani, ambao wanahudumu mbele za Bwana, na walie katikati ya ukumbi wa Hekalu na madhabahu. Waseme, “Wahurumie watu wako, Ee Bwana. Usifanye urithi wako kitu cha kudharauliwa, neno la dhihaka kati ya mataifa. Kwa nini wasemezane miongoni mwao, ‘Yuko wapi Mungu wao?’ ” 18Kisha Bwana atakuwa na wivu kwa ajili ya nchi yake na kuwa na huruma juu ya watu wake.
