1 Nitiere kinde mar gimoro amora, kod thuolo mitimoe tich moro ka moro e bwo polo:
Chinthu chilichonse chili ndi nthawi yake, ndi nyengo yake yomwe anayika Mulungu:
2 kinde mar nywol kod kinde mar tho, kinde mar pitho kod kinde mar putho,
Nthawi yobadwa ndi nthawi yomwalira, nthawi yodzala ndi nthawi yokolola.
3 kinde mar nek kod kinde mar chang, kinde mar muko kod kinde mar gero,
Nthawi yakupha ndi nthawi yochiritsa, nthawi yogwetsa ndi nthawi yomanga.
4 kinde mar kuyo kod kinde mar mor, kinde mar ywak kod kinde mar miel,
Nthawi yomva chisoni ndi nthawi yosangalala, nthawi yolira maliro ndi nthawi yovina.
5 kinde mar keyo kite kod kinde mar chokogi, kinde mar kwakruok kod kinde mar weyo kwakruok,
Nthawi yotaya miyala ndi nthawi yokundika miyala, nthawi yokumbatirana ndi nthawi yoleka kukumbatirana.
6 kinde mar dwaro gimoro kod kinde ma gimoro lalie, kinde mar kano gimoro kod kinde mar wito gimoro,
Nthawi yofunafuna ndi nthawi yoleka kufunafuna, nthawi yosunga ndi nthawi yotaya.
7 kinde mar yiecho gimoro kod kinde mar twangʼo, kinde mar lingʼ kod kinde mar wuoyo,
Nthawi yongʼamba ndi nthawi yosoka, nthawi yokhala chete ndi nthawi yoyankhula.
8 kinde mar hera kod kinde mar sin, kinde mar lweny kod kinde mar kwe.
Nthawi yokondana ndi nthawi yodana, nthawi ya nkhondo ndi nthawi ya mtendere.
9 En ohala mane ma jatich yudo kuom tich matek?
Kodi wantchito amapeza phindu lanji pa ntchito yake yolemetsa?
10 Aseneno tingʼ mapek ma Nyasaye oseketo kuom ji.
Ine ndinaona chipsinjo chimene Mulungu anayika pa anthu.
11 Oseketo gik moko duto obedo maber e kindegi. Oseketo ngima mochwere e chuny ji; kata kamano ok ginyal paro matut gima Nyasaye osetimono aa chakruok nyaka giko.
Iye anapanga chinthu chilichonse kuti chikhale chabwino pa nthawi yake. Anayika nzeru zamuyaya mʼmitima ya anthu; komabe anthuwo sangathe kuzindikira zomwe Mulungu wachita kuyambira pa chiyambi mpaka chimaliziro.
12 Angʼeyo ni onge gino maber ne ji moloyo bedo mamor kendo mondo gitim maber kapod gingima.
Ine ndikudziwa kuti palibenso kanthu kabwino kwa anthu kopambana kusangalala ndi kuchita zabwino pamene ali ndi moyo.
13 Wan duto wanyalo chiemo kendo metho, kendo wabed mamor e tijewa. Ma en mich moa kuom Nyasaye.
Ndi mphatso ya Mulungu kwa munthu kuti azidya, azimwa ndi kumakondwera ndi ntchito zake zolemetsa.
14 Angʼeyo ni gimoro amora ma Nyasaye timo osiko manyaka chiengʼ, onge gima inyalo mede kata inyalo gol kuome. Nyasaye timo kamano mondo omi ji oluore.
Ndikudziwa kuti chilichonse chimene Mulungu amachita chidzakhala mpaka muyaya; palibe zimene zingawonjezedwe kapena kuchotsedwa. Mulungu amazichita kuti anthu azimuopa.
15 Mantiere sani nosebedo, kendo mano mabiro bedo nosebedo chon; kendo Nyasaye biro kelo gik machon e kar ngʼado bura.
Chilichonse chimene chilipo chinalipo kale, ndipo chimene chidzakhalapo chinalipo poyamba; Mulungu amabwezanso zakale zimene zinapita kuti zichitikenso.
16 Kendo ne aneno gimachielo e bwo wangʼ chiengʼ: Kama adiera gi ngʼado bura makare onego bedie, to richo ema bedoe.
Ndipo ndinaona chinthu chinanso pansi pano: ku malo achiweruzo, kuyipa mtima kuli komweko, ku malo achilungamo, kuyipa mtima kuli komweko.
17 Ne aparo e chunya niya, “Nyasaye biro ngʼado bura ni jo-ratiro kaachiel gi joma richo, nikech gimoro ka gimoro ni kod sane.”
Ndinalingalira mu mtima mwanga kuti; “Mulungu adzaweruza olungama pamodzi ndi oyipa omwe, pakuti anayika nthawi yochitikira chinthu chilichonse, nthawi ya ntchito iliyonse.”
18 Bende ne achako aparo niya, “Nyasaye temo dhano mondo gine ni gichalo gi le.
Ndinalingaliranso kuti, “Kunena za anthu, Mulungu amawayesa ndi cholinga choti awaonetse kuti iwo ali ngati nyama.
19 Giko mar dhano gi le en ni gimoro achiel ochomogi duto machalre. Kaka achiel tho e kaka machielo bende. Giduto giyweyo machalre; dhano ok winj maber maloyo le. Gik moko duto onge tiendgi.
Zimene zimachitikira munthu, zomwezonso zimachitikira nyama; chinthu chimodzi chomwecho chimachitikira onse: Monga munthu amafa momwemonso nyama imafa. Zonsezi zimapuma mpweya umodzimodzi omwewo; munthu saposa nyama. Zonsezi ndi zopandapake.
20 Giduto gidhi kamoro achiel; giduto gia e lowo, kendo giduto gidok e lowo.
Zonse zimapita kumodzimodzi; zonsezi zimachokera ku fumbi, ndipo zimabwereranso ku fumbi komweko.
21 En ngʼa mongʼeyo ka chuny dhano dum dhi malo to chuny le ridore dhi e lowo?”
Kodi ndani amene amadziwa ngati mzimu wa munthu umakwera kumwamba, ndipo mzimu wa nyama umatsikira kunsi kwa dziko?”
22 Omiyo ne aneno ni onge gima ber ni dhano moloyo tichne, nikech mano e pokne. Kare en ngʼa manyalo keche mondo one gima biro timorene bangʼe kosetho?
Kotero ndinaona kuti palibe chinthu chabwino kwa munthu kuposa kuti munthu azisangalala ndi ntchito yake, pakuti ichi ndiye chake chenicheni. Pakuti ndani amene angamubweretse kuti adzaone zimene zidzamuchitikira iye akadzamwalira?
