Nyanja Nugget

I finally found a Bible written in Nyanja! OK, so it's actually in Chichewa, which is very similar to Nyanja and used in Malawi and the Eastern Province of Zambia- but it's basically the same thing. And since there is no written form of Nyanja (it is a spoken language only), it will do for now.

So today, I present to you a 'Nyanja Nugget,' (first of many to come) one of my favorite passages, and the very motto of Special Hope-

"Tsegula pakamwa pako, ukanenere wosalankhula,
ndi mlandu wa amasiye onse.
Tsegula pakamwa pako; nuweruze molungama,
nunenere osauka ndi aumphawi."
Miyambo 31:8-9

"Open your mouth, for those who cannot speak,
for the rights of all the unfortunate.
Open your mouth; judge righteously,
and defend the rights of the afflicted and the needy."
Proverbs 31:8-9
