1 Ndani angafanane ndi munthu wanzeru? Ndani angadziwe kutanthauzira zinthu? Nzeru imabweretsa chimwemwe pa nkhope ya munthu ndipo imasintha maonekedwe ake awukali.
Ani afaanana omuntu omugezi amanyi okunnyonnyola buli kintu? Amagezi gaakaayakanyisa obwenyi bw’omuntu, ne gakyusa emitaafu gyamu.
2 Ine ndikuti, mvera lamulo la mfumu, chifukwa unalumbira pamaso pa Mulungu.
Nkugamba nti gondera ekiragiro kya kabaka, kubanga walayira mu maaso ga Katonda.
3 Usafulumire kuchoka pamaso pa mfumu. Usawumirire chinthu choyipa, pakuti mfumu idzachita chilichonse chomwe imasangalatsidwa nacho.
Toyanguyiriza kuva mu maaso ga kabaka. Kyokka ensonga bw’ebanga etali ntuufu, tobanga ku ludda lumuwakanya, kubanga ye akola buli ky’ayagala.
4 Popeza mawu a mfumu ali ndi mphamvu, ndani anganene kwa mfumuyo kuti, “Kodi mukuchita chiyani?”
Kubanga ekigambo kya kabaka kisukkuluma byonna; kale ani ayinza okumubuuza nti, “Okola ki ekyo?”
5 Aliyense amene amamvera lamulo lake sadzapeza vuto lililonse, ndipo munthu wanzeru amadziwa nthawi yoyenera ndi machitidwe ake.
Oyo agondera ekiragiro kye talituukibwako kabi, omutima ogw’amagezi gulimanya ekiseera ekisaana okukoleramu ekintu gundi, n’engeri ey’okukolamu ekintu ekyo.
6 Pakuti pali nthawi yoyenera ndiponso machitidwe a chinthu chilichonse, ngakhale kuti mavuto ake a munthu amupsinja kwambiri.
Kubanga waliwo ekiseera ekituufu n’enkola esaana ku buli kintu, newaakubadde ng’obuyinike bw’omuntu bumuzitoowerera okukamala.
7 Popeza palibe munthu amene amadziwa zamʼtsogolo, ndani angamuwuze zomwe zidzachitika mʼtsogolo?
Nga bwe watali muntu amanyi binaabaawo, kale ani ayinza okumutegeeza ebinajja?
8 Palibe munthu amene ali ndi mphamvu yolamulira mpweya wa moyo kuti athe kuwusunga, choncho palibe amene ali ndi mphamvu pa tsiku la imfa yake. Nkhondo sithawika; tsono anthu ochita zoyipa, kuyipa kwawoko sikudzawapulumutsa.
Tewali muntu alina buyinza kufuga mpewo; bwe kityo tewali n’omu alina buyinza ku lunaku lwa kufa kwe. Ng’omuntu bw’aweebwa ebiragiro mu biseera eby’olutalo, bwe kityo n’obutali butuukirivu bwe buduumira abo ababutambuliramu.
9 Zonsezi ndinaziona pamene ndinalingalira mu mtima mwanga, zonse zimene zimachitika pansi pano. Ilipo nthawi imene ena amalamulira anzawo mwankhanza.
Ebyo byonna bye nalaba bwe nagezaako okwekenneenya buli kintu ekikolebwa wansi w’enjuba. Waliwo ekiseera omufuzi buli lw’abinika baafuga, kyokka nga yeerumya yekka.
10 Kenaka, ndinaona anthu oyipa akuyikidwa mʼmanda, iwo amene ankalowa ndi kumatuluka mʼmalo opatulika ndipo ankatamandidwa mu mzindawo pamene ankachita zimenezi. Izinso ndi zopandapake.
Ndabye abantu abakozi b’ebibi nga baziikibwa, abo abaawaanibwanga mu kibuga nga bazze mu kifo ekitukuvu. Na kino nakyo butaliimu.
11 Pamene chigamulo cha anthu opalamula mlandu chikuchedwa, mitima ya anthu imadzaza ndi malingaliro ochita zolakwa.
Omuntu bw’asalirwa omusango n’atabonererezebwawo, emitima gy’ababi gijjula kuteekateeka kukola bubi.
12 Ngakhale munthu woyipa apalamule milandu yambirimbiri, nʼkumakhalabe ndi moyo wautali, ine ndikudziwa kuti anthu owopa Mulungu zinthu zidzawayendera bwino, omwe amapereka ulemu pamaso pa Mulungu.
Newaakubadde ng’omuntu omubi azza emisango kikumi, ate n’awangaala, nkimanyi ng’abatuukirivu, abo abatya Katonda bijja kubagendera bulungi.
13 Koma popeza oyipa saopa Mulungu zinthu sizidzawayendera bwino, ndipo moyo wawo sudzakhalitsa monga mthunzi.
Naye olwokubanga abakozi b’ebibi tebatya Katonda, tebiyinza kubagendera bulungi, era n’ennaku zaabwe zinaayitanga mangu ng’ekisiikirize.
14 Palinso chinthu china chopanda phindu chomwe chimachitika pa dziko lapansi: anthu olungama amalangidwa ngati anthu osalungama. Pamene oyipa amalandira zabwino ngati kuti ndi anthu abwino.
Waliwo ekintu ekirala ekiraga obutaliimu ekiri ku nsi: abantu abatuukirivu batukibwako ebyo ebisaanira ababi, ate abatali batuukirivu ne batuukibwako ebyo ebigwanira abatuukirivu. Kino nakyo nkiyita butaliimu.
15 Nʼchifukwa chake ndikuti munthu azikondwerera moyo, pakuti munthu alibe chinanso chabwino pansi pano choposa kudya, kumwa ndi kumadzikondweretsa. Akamatero, munthuyo adzakhala ndi chimwemwe pa ntchito yake masiku onse a moyo wake amene Mulungu wamupatsa pansi pano.
Bwe ntyo nteesa nti omuntu yeyagalire mu bulamu: kubanga wansi w’enjuba tewali kisinga, wabula omuntu okulya n’okunywa n’okweyagala. Kale essanyu linaamuwerekeranga mu mirimu gye, ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe Katonda bw’amuwadde wansi w’enjuba.
16 Pamene ndinayikapo mtima wanga kuti ndidziwe nzeru ndi kuonetsetsa ntchito za munthu pa dziko lapansi, osapeza tulo usana ndi usiku,
Bwe nanoonyereza amagezi ne neetegereza okutegana kw’omuntu ku nsi kuno, nga teyeebaka emisana n’ekiro.
17 pamenepo ndinaona zonse zimene Mulungu anazichita. Palibe munthu amene angathe kuzimvetsa zonse zimene zimachitika pansi pano. Ngakhale munthu ayesetse kuzifufuza, sangathe kupeza tanthauzo lake. Ngakhale munthu wanzeru atanena kuti iye amadziwa, sangathe kuzimvetsetsa zinthuzo.
Ne ndaba ebyo byonna Katonda by’akoze, nga tewali n’omu ayinza kutegeera Katonda by’akola wansi w’enjuba, omuntu ne bw’agezaako ennyo okukinoonyereza tayinza kukivumbula. Newaakubadde omuntu omugezi yeefuula nti akimanyi, tayinza kukitegeera.
