Yobu 11
1 Awo Zofali Omunaamasi n’ayogera nti,
Pea naʻe toki tali ʻe Sofaa mei Neama, ʻo ne pehē,
2 “Ebigambo ebyo byonna bisigale nga tebiddiddwamu? Omwogezi ono anaabalibwa ng’ataliiko musango?
“ʻIkai ʻoku totonu ke tali ʻae ngaahi lea lahi ni? Pea ʻe fakatonuhiaʻi koe ʻae tangata faʻa lau?
3 Okwogera kwo okutaliimu kunaatusirisa? Oduule bw’otyo wabulewo akunenya?
ʻE fakalongoʻi ʻae kakai ʻe hoʻo ngaahi loi? Pea ʻi hoʻo manuki, ʻe ʻikai fakamā koe ʻe ha taha?
4 Ogamba Katonda nti, ‘Ebirowoozo byange tebirina nsobi, era ndi mutukuvu mu maaso go.’
He kuo ke pehē, ‘Ko ʻeku akonaki ʻoku totonu pē, pea ʻoku ou maʻa ʻi ho ʻao.’
5 Naye, singa Katonda ayogera, singa abikkula akamwa ke n’akuddamu,
Kae taumaiā ke folofola mai ʻae ʻOtua, ʻo ne faʻai hono fofonga kiate koe;
6 n’akubikkulira ebyama by’amagezi; kubanga amagezi amatuufu ddala galiko enjuuyi bbiri. Manya kino: Katonda n’okwerabira yeerabira ebimu ku bibi byo.
Pea ne fakahā kiate koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa lilo ʻoe poto, he ʻoku lahi hake ʻaupito ia ʻi he meʻa ʻoku hā mai! Ko ia ke ke ʻilo, ʻoku siʻi ʻae totongi ʻoku ʻeke ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi he meʻa ʻoku taau mo hoʻo angahia.
7 “Osobola okupima ebyama bya Katonda? Oyinza okunoonyereza ku Ayinzabyonna n’omumalayo?
“He te ke ʻilo ʻae ʻOtua ʻi he faʻa ʻeke? He te ke faʻa kumi ke ʻilo haohaoa ʻae Māfimafi?
8 Bigulumivu okusinga eggulu, kiki ky’osobola okukola? Bikka okusinga obuziba bw’emagombe, kiki ky’osobola okumanya? (Sheol h7585)
ʻOku māʻolunga ia ʻo hangē ko e langi; ko e hā ʻaʻau te ke fai? ʻOku māʻulalo hifo ʻi heli; te ke faʻa ʻilo ʻae hā? (Sheol h7585)
9 Obuwanvu bwabyo businga ensi era bugazi okusinga ennyanja.
Ko hono fuofua ʻoku lōloa lahi ʻi he māmani, pea lau lahi ia ʻi he tahi.
10 “Singa ajja n’akusibira mu kkomera era n’atuuza olukiiko, ani ayinza okumuwakanya?
Kapau ʻe tuʻusi ʻe ia, pe tāpuni ke maʻu, pe tānaki fakataha, ʻe taʻofi ia ʻe hai?
11 Mazima ddala amanya abantu abalimba. Bw’alaba ebibi, tabifaako?
He ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi ʻae kakai vale: ʻoku ne vakai foki ki he fai kovi; pea ʻe ʻikai te ne tokangaʻi?
12 Naye omuntu omusirusiru, talifuna magezi, ng’omwana gw’endogoyi ogw’omu nsi bwe gutayinza kuzaalibwa nga gusobola okufugibwa.
He ʻoku fie poto ʻae tangata vale, neongo ʻoku fanauʻi ʻae tangata ʻo hangē ko e ʻuhiki ʻoe ʻasi kai vao.
13 “Naye bw’owaayo omutima gwo gy’ali, n’ogolola emikono gyo gy’ali,
“Kapau te ke teu ho loto, pea mafao atu ho nima kiate ia;
14 singa oggyawo ekibi ekiri mu mukono gwo, n’otokkiriza kibi kubeera mu weema yo,
Kapau ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻae angahala, siʻaki ia ke mamaʻo, pea ʻoua naʻa nofo ʻae kovi ʻi ho ngaahi fale.
15 olwo onoositula omutwe n’obwenyi bwo nga tokwatibwa nsonyi, era oyimirire ng’oli munywevu awatali kutya.
He ko ia te ke toki hanga hake ai ho mata ʻo taʻehanoʻila; ʻio, te ke tuʻumaʻu, ʻo ʻikai manavahē:
16 Mazima ddala ojja kwerabira emitawaana gyo, olijjukira bujjukizi ng’amazzi agaayita edda.
He te ke fakangaloʻi hoʻo mamahi, ʻo manatuʻi ia ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi vai kuo tafe atu:
17 Obulamu bujja kwaka okusinga omusana ogw’omu ttuntu, n’ekizikiza kijja kufuuka ng’obudde obw’oku nkya.
Pea ʻe ʻāsinisini lahi hoʻo motuʻa ʻi he hoʻatāmālie ʻoe ʻaho; te ke ulo atu, te ke tatau mo e pongipongi.
18 Olibeera munywevu, kubanga olibeera n’essuubi; olitunuulira ebikwetooloodde n’owummulira mu mirembe.
Pea te ke fiemālie koe, he ʻoku ai ʻae ʻamanaki lelei; ʻio, te ke keli, ʻo mālōlō fiemālie pe.
19 Oligalamira nga tewali n’omu akutiisa, era bangi abalikunoonyaako omukisa.
Pea te ke tokoto foki, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamanavahēʻi koe ʻe ha taha; ʻio, ʻe kumi meʻa meiate koe ʻe he tokolahi.
20 Naye amaaso g’abakozi b’ebibi galiremererwa, era tebalisobola kuwona, essuubi lyabwe libeere ng’omukka ogw’enkomerero.”
Ka ʻe vaivai ʻae mata ʻoe angahala, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau hao, pea ko e ifi ʻoe mānava ʻa ʻenau ʻamanaki.”
