Jovu 17
1 Hagi hanavenimo'a evuramigeno, knani'amo'a eme upa nehigeno, vahe'ma asente matimo'a navega anteno me'ne.
Moyo wangu umevunjika, siku zangu zimefupishwa, kaburi linaningojea.
2 Hagi nagri'ma huhaviza hunenantaza vahe'mo'za nazeri kagi'za mani'ne'za, hunte'za ki'za zokago kea hunenantazage'na mani'ne'na nezmagoe.
Hakika wenye mizaha wamenizunguka; macho yangu yamebaki kutazama uadui wao.
3 Hagi nagrira hazenkeni'a omneneanki, Anumzamoka naza huo. Na'ankure mago vahe'mo'a otino naza hugara osu'ne.
“Ee Mungu, nipe dhamana unayodai. Ni nani mwingine atakayeweka dhamana kwa ajili yangu?
4 Kagra antahintahizmia eriginke'za ama ana zana antahi amara nosaze. E'ina hu'negu zamatrege'za kefintira nazeri havizana hu'za nagateoreho.
Umezifunga akili zao zisipate ufahamu, kwa hiyo hutawaacha wapate ushindi.
5 Zamagra'a knare zanku nentahi'za, aronezmia zamazeri haviza nehaze. E'ina hu'negu mofavrezimia zamatrege'za, zamagaku nehu'za friho.
Kama mtu akiwashutumu rafiki zake ili apate ujira, macho ya watoto wake yatashindwa kuona.
6 Hagi vahe amu'nompina Anumzamo'a nagrira nazeri kizazokago zankna higeno, vahe'mo'za navugosafina zamavetura ahenante'za vano nehaze.
“Mungu amenifanya kitu cha dhihaka kwa kila mtu, mtu ambaye watu humtemea mate usoni.
7 Hanki zavi'ma atoa zamo higeno navumo'a zorege'na, nagra oza'oza hu'na vahe amema'agna nehue.
Macho yangu yamefifia kwa ajili ya majonzi; umbile langu lote ni kama kivuli.
8 Hagi fatgo zamavu'zmava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za ama anazama nege'za, antri hu'za zamagogogu nehazage'za, hazenke'zmima omne vahe'mo'za Anumzamofoma amage'ma nontaza vahera ha' renezmantaze.
Watu wanyofu wanatishwa na hili; watu wasio na hatia wanasimama dhidi ya wasiomcha Mungu.
9 Ana nehu'za fatgo zamavu'zma'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za rukrahera osu, fatgo zamavu'zmavama nehaza vahe'mo'za zamavu'zmavara hu'za nevazageno, zamazampima pehena okamare maka zupa fatgo avu'ava'ma hu'zampina hage'za mareneri'za ome hankaveti'za nevaze.
Hata hivyo, waadilifu watazishika njia zao, nao wale wenye mikono safi wataendelea kupata nguvu.
10 Hianagi mika'mota atreta rukrahe huta eho, tamagri amu'nompina knare antahi'zane vahera hakre'na eri forera osu'noe.
“Lakini ninyi njooni, ninyi nyote, jaribuni tena! Sitampata mtu mwenye hekima miongoni mwenu.
11 Nagrira knani'a vagaregeno amuha zani'a omane. Ana higeno nagesama antahi'na hugahuema hu'na retroma hu'noa zamo'a amare eme vagare.
Siku zangu zimepita, mipango yangu imevunjika, vivyo hivyo shauku za moyo wangu.
12 Hagi ama vahe'mo'za ferukura eri rukrahe hu'za kenagere nehu'za, kenagekura ferure hu'za nehu'za, hanintirima hiazankura masa hu'ne hu'za nehaze.
Watu hawa hufanya usiku kuwa mchana, kwenye giza wao husema, ‘Mwanga u karibu.’
13 Nagra fri vahe kumapima tafe'ma hu'na hanintirima hu'nefima masoresina knare hisine. Hanki hanimpima tafeni'ama rutare'na masina masogeno'a, knare hisine. (Sheol h7585)
Kama nyumba pekee ninayoitarajia ni kaburi, kama nikikitandika kitanda changu gizani, (Sheol h7585)
14 Hagi fri vahe matiku'ma hu'na kagra nenfage nehu'na, hagirafagu'ma hu'na, kagra nenrerage hu'na huge, nensarogema huasina knare hisine.
kama nikiuambia uharibifu, ‘Wewe u baba yangu,’ na kuliambia buu, ‘Wewe u mama yangu’ au ‘Dada yangu,’
15 Hagi amuha zani'a iga me'ne? Iza amuha zani'a hakeno eri fore hugahie.
liko wapi basi tarajio langu? Ni nani awezaye kuona tarajio lolote kwa ajili yangu?
