1 Nagra amanage hu'noe, kema hanufina kegava hu'ne'na, kema hu'zampintira kumira osugosue. Hagi Anumzamofoma amage'ma nontaza vahe'enema mani'nenuna, nagra nagira reaka hu'na kea osugosue.
Kwa mwimbishaji. Mtindo wa Yeduthuni. Zaburi ya Daudi. Nilisema, “Nitaziangalia njia zangu na kuuzuia ulimi wangu usije ukatenda dhambi; nitaweka lijamu kinywani mwangu wakati wote waovu wanapokuwa karibu nami.”
2 Hianagi nagra akohena nemanina knare zanku'ma nagima hamunki'na kema osu'na nemnugeno'a, narimpa kanazamo'a ome ra nehie.
Lakini niliponyamaza kimya na kutulia, hata pasipo kusema lolote jema, uchungu wangu uliongezeka.
3 Ana zanku'ma antahintahima nehugeno'a, narimpa he'zamo'a teve arukru nehigeno, kema hu'zanimo'a amare amare nehie.
Moyo wangu ulipata moto ndani yangu, nilipotafakari, moto uliwaka, ndipo nikasema kwa ulimi wangu:
4 Ra Anumzamoka nama'a kna ama mopafina mani'na vugahufi hunagesa huo. Mani'nama vanuankna hamprinka ketenka nasmio. Na'ankure knanimo'a tusiza huno aganere.
“Ee Bwana, nijulishe mwisho wa maisha yangu na hesabu ya siku zangu; nijalie kujua jinsi maisha yangu yanavyopita upesi.
5 Hagi kasefa hu'nama manisuankna eri atupa hankeno, Kagri kavurera amnezankna hie. Hagi vahe'motama tasimu'ma erita mani'zamo'a, magoke asimu'ma anteankna nehie.
Umefanya maisha yangu mafupi kama pumzi; muda wangu wa kuishi ni kama hauna thamani kwako. Maisha ya kila mwanadamu ni kama pumzi.
6 Hagi tagra zagemo'ma rentegeno vahe'mofo ame'ma'ama fore'ma hiaza hu'nonankita, amuhoma huta eritruma hu'na zamo'a amnezankna nehie. Fenoma eritruma nehuna zana, ina vahe'mo erisantiharegahie ontahineta eritru nehune.
Hakika kila binadamu ni kama njozi aendapo huku na huko: hujishughulisha na mengi lakini ni ubatili; anakusanya mali nyingi, wala hajui ni nani atakayeifaidi.
7 Hianagi menina nagra izanku amuhara hugahue? Nagra Kagriteke namentintia nehu'na amuhara nehue.
“Lakini sasa Bwana, nitafute nini? Tumaini langu ni kwako.
8 Hanki kumini'afintira nagu'nevazinka, atregeno neginagi vahe'mo'za kizazokago kea huonanteho.
Niokoe kutoka kwenye makosa yangu yote, usinifanye kuwa dhihaka ya wapumbavu.
9 Hagi nagira hamunki'na kea osu manigahue. Na'ankure Kagra knazana nenamine.
Nilinyamaza kimya, sikufumbua kinywa changu, kwa sababu wewe ndiwe uliyetenda hili.
10 Hianagi muse hugantoanki knazama nenamina zana hanki eritro. Hazenkema namina zamo'a tusiza huno nazeri haviza hianki natro.
Niondolee mjeledi wako, nimeshindwa kwa mapigo ya mkono wako.
11 Hagi kumi'ma huna zante'ma knazama tamina zamo'a, zago'amo marerirfa zama antenonkeno hakanomo'ma tragama hiankna huno, tazeri haviza nehie. Maka vahe'mota tagra asimu'ma antegeno'ma vahe'mofo agipinti'ma amu'ma atiramiankna hu'nonankita, ame huta fanane hugahune.
Unakemea na kuadhibu wanadamu kwa ajili ya dhambi zao; unaharibu utajiri wao kama nondo aharibuvyo: kila mwanadamu ni kama pumzi tu.
12 Ra Anumzamoka nunamuni'a antahio! Naza huogu'ma zavi'ma netoana krafageni'a antahinamio! Zavi'ma netogeno'ma navunumo'ma nehiazana keamnea osuo. Na'ankure nagra nantu vahekna hu'na ama mopafina e'noankina nagehemo'zama hu'nazaza hu'na ko fri'na vugahue.
“Ee Bwana, usikie maombi yangu, usikie kilio changu unisaidie, usiwe kiziwi kwa kulia kwangu. Kwani mimi ninaishi na wewe kama mgeni, kama walivyokuwa baba zangu wote,
13 Hanki karimpama ahenenantana zana natrege'na, osi'a knafina musena hu'na mani'nena fri'na va'neno.
Tazama mbali nami, ili niweze kufurahi tena kabla sijaondoka na nisiwepo tena.”
