1 “Munthu wobadwa mwa amayi amakhala masiku owerengeka ndipo ndi odzaza ndi mavuto okhaokha.
“Ko e tangata kuo fanauʻi ʻe he fefine, ʻoku siʻi pe hono ngaahi ʻaho, pea fonu ʻi he mamahi.
2 Amaphuka ngati duwa ndipo kenaka amafota; amathawa ngati mthunzi ndipo sakhalitsa.
‌ʻOku tupu hake ia ʻo hangē ko e fisiʻi ʻakau, pea tuʻusi hifo: ʻoku puna foki ia ʻo hangē ko e ʻatā, ʻo ʻikai nofomaʻu.
3 Kodi munthu wotereyo nʼkumuyangʼanitsitsa? Kodi mungamubweretse pamaso panu kuti mumuzenge mlandu?
Pea ʻoku ke fofonga ʻa ki ha taha pehē, mo ke ʻomi au ke fakamaau mo koe?
4 Ndani angatulutse chabwino mʼchoyipa? Palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe!
Ko hai te ne faʻa ʻomi ʻae maʻa mei he taʻemaʻa? ʻIkai ha taha.
5 Masiku a munthu ndi odziwikiratu; munakhazikitsa chiwerengero cha miyezi yake ndipo munamulembera malire amene sangathe kuwalumpha.
He kuo tukupau hono ngaahi ʻaho, ko e lau ʻo hono ngaahi māhina ʻoku ʻiate koe, kuo ke tuʻutuʻu ni hono fakangatangata ʻe ʻikai te ne toloiʻi;
6 Choncho Inu mumufulatire ndipo mumuleke apumule kufikira atakondwera nawo moyo ngati munthu waganyu.
“Afe atu meiate ia, ka ne mālōlō, kaeʻoua ke ne fakakakato hono ʻaho ʻo hangē ha ngāue unga.
7 “Mtengo uli nacho chiyembekezo: ngati wadulidwa, udzaphukiranso ndipo nthambi zake sizidzaleka kuphukira.
He ʻoku ʻamanaki ki he ʻakau, ʻo kapau ʻe tā hifo ia, ki heʻene toe tupu hake, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻosi hono huli ʻo ia.
8 Mizu yake ingathe kukalamba mʼnthaka ndipo chitsa chake nʼkuwola pa dothi,
Neongo ʻae fakaʻaʻau ke motuʻa hono aka ʻi he kelekele, pea mate hono sino ʻi he efu;
9 koma pamene chinyontho chafika udzaphukira ndipo udzaphuka nthambi ngati mtengo wanthete.
Ka ʻi he nanamu ʻoe vai ʻe toe tupu ia, ʻo tupu ai ʻae ngaahi vaʻa ʻo hangē ha ʻakau.
10 Koma munthu amafa nayikidwa mʼmanda, amapuma mpweya wotsiriza ndipo kutha kwake nʼkomweko.
Ka ʻoku mate pē ʻae tangata, ʻo fakaʻaʻau ke ʻosi: ʻio, ʻoku fononga ʻae tangata, pea kofaʻā ia?
11 Monga madzi amaphwera mʼnyanja kapena monga mtsinje umaphwera nuwuma,
‌ʻO hangē ʻoku mole ʻae ngaahi vai mei he tahi, pea matuʻu ʻo mōmoa ʻae ngaahi vaitafe:
12 momwemonso munthu amagona ndipo sadzukanso; mpaka zamlengalenga zidzathe, anthu sadzauka kapena kudzutsidwa ku tulo tawo.
‌ʻOku pehē ʻoku tokoto hifo ʻae tangata, pea ʻikai toetuʻu: ʻe ʻikai te nau ʻa pē tuʻu mei heʻenau mohe, kaeʻoua ke mole ʻae ngaahi langi.
13 “Aa, Inu mukanangondibisa mʼmanda ndi kundiphimba kuti ndisaoneke mpaka mkwiyo wanu utapita! Achikhala munandiyikira nthawi, kuti pambuyo pake mundikumbukirenso. (Sheol h7585)
“Taumaiā te ke fufū au ʻi he faʻitoka, ʻo ke fakafufū au, kaeʻoua ke mole atu ho houhau, mo ke kotofa hoku ʻaho, ʻo manatuʻi au. (Sheol h7585)
14 Munthu akafa, kodi adzakhalanso ndi moyo? Masiku anga onse a moyo wovutikawu ndidzadikira mpaka itafika nthawi yomasulidwa.
Kapau ʻe mate ʻae tangata, ʻe toe moʻui ia? Ko e ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē kuo kotofa kiate au te u tatali ai, kaeʻoua ke hoko hoku liliu.
15 Inu mudzandiyitane ndipo ndidzakuyankhani; inu mudzafunitsitsa kuona cholengedwa chimene munachipanga ndi manja anu.
Te ke ui, pea te u talia koe: he te ke holi ki he ngāue ʻa ho nima.
16 Ndithudi pamenepo mudzayangʼana mayendedwe anga koma simudzalondola tchimo langa.
Ka ko eni, kuo ke lau ʻeku ngaahi laka: ʻikai ʻoku ke vakai ki heʻeku angahala?
17 Zolakwa zanga zidzakulungidwa mʼthumba; inu mudzaphimba tchimo langa.
Kuo fakamaʻu ʻeku kovi ʻi ha tangai, pea ʻoku ke tuitui ai ʻeku hia.
18 “Koma monga phiri limakokolokera ndi kuswekasweka ndipo monga thanthwe limasunthira kuchoka pa malo ake,
“ʻO hangē ʻoku fakaʻaʻau ʻo ngata ʻae moʻunga kuo tō, pea ʻoku hiki ʻae fuʻu maka mei hono potu.
19 monganso madzi oyenda amaperesera miyala ndipo madzi othamanga amakokololera nthaka, momwemonso Inu mumawononga chiyembekezo cha munthu.
‌ʻO hangē ʻoku holo ʻe he vai ʻae ngaahi maka: pea tāfea ʻo mole ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku tupu ʻi he kelekele ʻoe fonua; ʻoku pehē hoʻo fakaʻauha ʻae ʻamanaki ʻae tangata.
20 Inu mumamugonjetsa kamodzinʼkamodzi ndipo munthuyo nʼkutheratu; Inu mumasintha maonekedwe a nkhope yake ndipo mumamutaya kutali.
‌ʻOku ke mālohi maʻuaipē kiate ia, pea ʻoku mole ia: ʻoku ke liliu hono mata mo ke fekau ia ke ʻalu.
21 Ana ake akamalemekezedwa, iyeyo sazidziwa zimenezo; akamachititsidwa manyazi iye saziona zimenezo.
‌ʻOku hoko ʻo ongoongo hono ngaahi foha, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne ʻilo; pea ʻoku fakavaivai hifo ʻakinautolu, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne mamata ai.
22 Iye amangomva zowawa za mʼthupi lake ndipo amangodzilirira yekha mwini wakeyo.”
Ka ko hono kakano ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻe langa, pea ʻe mamahi mo hono laumālie ʻi loto ʻiate ia.”
