1 Awo Erifaazi Omutemani n’addamu n’ayogera nti,
Pamenepo Elifazi wa ku Temani anayankha kuti,
2 “Omuntu ow’amagezi yandizzeemu n’amagezi agataliimu, oba n’ajjuza olubuto lwe embuyaga ez’ebuvanjuba?
“Kodi munthu wanzeru angayankhe ndi mawu achabechabe otere, kapena angakhutitse mimba yake ndi mphepo yotentha yochokera kummawa?
3 Yandiwakanye n’ebigambo ebitaliiko kye bigasa, oba okwogera ebigambo ebitalina kye bikola?
Kodi angathe kutsutsa ndi mawu opanda pake, kapena kuyankhula mawu opanda phindu?
4 Naye onyooma Katonda n’oziyiza okwewaayo eri Katonda.
Koma iwe ukuchepetsa zoopa Mulungu ndipo ukutchinga zodzikhuthulira kwa Mulungu.
5 Kubanga obutali butuukirivu bwo bwe buyigiriza akamwa ko, era olonzeewo okukozesa olulimi lw’abalimba.
Tchimo lako ndiye likuyankhulitsa pakamwa pakopo; ndipo watengera mayankhulidwe a atambwali.
6 Akamwa ko kennyini ke kakusalira omusango si nze, emimwa gyo gyennyini gye gikulumiriza.
Pakamwa pakopo ndiye pakukutsutsa osati pakamwa panga; milomo yakoyo ikukutsutsa.
7 “Gwe wasooka abantu bonna okuzaalibwa? Oba ggwe wazaalibwa ensozi nga tezinnabaawo?
“Kodi ndiwe munthu woyamba kubadwa? Kodi unalengedwa mapiri asanalengedwe?
8 Ofaayo okuwuliriza okuteesa kwa Katonda? Olowooza gwe mugezi wekka?
Kodi unali mʼgulu la alangizi a Mulungu? Kodi ukudziyesa wanzeru ndiwe wekha?
9 Kiki ky’omanyi kye tutamanyi? Kubikkulirwa ki kw’olina ffe kwe tutalina?
Kodi iwe umadziwa chiyani chimene ife sitichidziwa? Kodi iwe uli ndi chidziwitso chanji chimene ife tilibe?
10 Ab’envi abakaddiye bali ku ludda lwaffe, abasajja abakulu n’okusinga kitaawo.
Anthu a imvi ndi okalamba ali mbali yathu, anthu amvulazakale kupambana abambo ako.
11 Katonda by’akugambye ebikuzzaamu amaanyi bitono nnyo tebikumala, ebigambo ebikubuuliddwa mu bukkakkamu?
Kodi mawu otonthoza mtima ochokera kwa Mulungu sakukukwanira, mawu oyankhula mofatsawa kwa iwe?
12 Lwaki omutima gwo gukubuzizza, amaaso go ne gatemereza
Chifukwa chiyani ukupsa mtima, ndipo chifukwa chiyani ukutuzula maso ako,
13 n’olyoka ofuka obusungu bwo eri Katonda, n’ofukumula ebigambo bwe bityo okuva mu kamwa ko?
moti ukupsera mtima Mulungu ndi kuyankhula mawu otero pakamwa pako?
14 “Omuntu ye ani, alyoke abeere omutukuvu, oba oyo azaalibwa omukazi nti ayinza okuba omutuukirivu?
“Kodi munthu nʼchiyani kuti nʼkukhala woyera mtima kapena wobadwa mwa amayi nʼchiyani kuti nʼkukhala wolungama mtima?
15 Katonda bw’aba tassa bwesige mu batukuvu be, n’eggulu ne liba nga si ttukuvu mu maaso ge,
Ngati Mulungu sakhulupirira ngakhale angelo ake, ngakhale zakumwamba sizoyera pamaso pake,
16 oba oleeta otya omuntu obuntu, omugwagwa era omuvundu, anywa obutali butuukirivu nga amazzi!
nanga kuli bwanji munthu amene ndi wonyansa ndi wa njira zokhotakhota, amene kuchita zoyipa kuli ngati kumwa madzi.
17 “Mpuliriza nnaakunnyonnyola, leka nkubuulire kye ndabye:
“Mvetsera kwa ine ndipo ndidzakufotokozera; ndilole ndikuwuze zimene ndaziona,
18 abasajja ab’amagezi kye bagambye nga tebalina kye bakwese ku kye baafuna okuva eri bakadde baabwe
zimene anandiphunzitsa anthu anzeru, sanandibisire kalikonse kamene anamva kuchokera kwa makolo awo.
19 abo bokka abaweebwa ensi nga tewali mugwira agiyitamu.
(Ndi kwa iwowa kumene dziko lino linaperekedwa pamene panalibe mlendo wokhala pakati pawo).
20 Omuntu omukozi w’ebibi, aba mu kubonaabona ennaku ze zonna, n’anyigirizibwa emyaka gyonna egyamutegekerwa.
Munthu woyipa amavutika ndi masautso masiku onse a moyo wake, munthu wankhanza adzavutika zaka zake zonse.
21 Amaloboozi agatiisa gajjuza amatu ge; byonna bwe biba ng’ebiteredde, abanyazi ne bamulumba.
Amamva mawu owopsa mʼmakutu mwake, pamene zonse zikuoneka ngati zili bwino, anthu achifwamba amamuthira nkhondo.
22 Atya okuva mu kizikiza adde, ekitala kiba kimulinze okumusala.
Iye sakhulupirira kuti angathe kupulumuka ku mdima wa imfa; iyeyo ndi woyenera kuphedwa.
23 Adda eno n’eri ng’anoonya ky’anaalya, amanyi ng’olunaku olw’ekizikiza lumutuukiridde.
Amangoyendayenda pali ponse kunka nafuna chakudya; amadziwa kuti tsiku la mdima lili pafupi.
24 Okweraliikirira n’obubalagaze bimubuutikira, bimujjula nga kabaka eyetegekedde olutalo.
Masautso ndi nthumanzi zimamuchititsa mantha kwambiri; zimamugonjetsa iye monga imachitira mfumu yokonzekera kukathira nkhondo,
25 Kubanga anyeenyerezza Katonda ekikonde, ne yeegereegeranya ku oyo Ayinzabyonna,
chifukwa iye amatambasula dzanja lake kuyambana ndi Mulungu ndipo amadzitama yekha polimbana ndi Wamphamvuzonse.
26 n’agenda n’ekyejo amulumbe, n’engabo ennene enzito.
Amapita mwa mwano kukalimbana naye atanyamula chishango chochindikala ndi cholimba.
27 “Wadde nga yenna yagejja amaaso ng’ajjudde amasavu mu mbiriizi,
“Ngakhale nkhope yake ndi yonenepa ndipo mʼchiwuno mwake muli mnofu wambiri,
28 wakubeera mu bibuga eby’amatongo, ne mu bifulukwa, ennyumba ezigwa okufuuka ebifunfugu.
munthuyo adzakhala mʼmizinda yowonongeka ndi mʼnyumba zosayenera kukhalamo anthu, nyumba zimene zikugwa ndi kuwonongeka.
29 Taddeyo kugaggawala, n’obugagga bwe tebulirwawo, n’ebintu by’alina tebirifuna mirandira mu ttaka.
Iye sadzalemeranso ndipo chuma chake sichidzakhalitsa, ngakhale minda yake sidzabala zipatso pa dziko lapansi.
30 Taliwona kizikiza, olulimi lw’omuliro lunaakazanga amatabi ge, era omukka gw’omu kamwa gulimugobera wala.
Iyeyo sadzapulumuka mu mdimamo; lawi lamoto lidzawumitsa nthambi zake, ndipo mpweya wochokera mʼkamwa mwa Mulungu udzamusesa.
31 Alemenga okwerimba nga yeesiga ebitaliimu, kubanga talina ky’ajja kuganyulwa.
Asadzinyenge yekha podalira zinthu zachabechabe, pakuti pa mapeto pake sadzaphulapo kanthu.
32 Wa kusasulwa byonna ng’obudde tebunnatuuka, n’amatabi ge tegalikula.
Iye adzalandira malipiro ake nthawi yake isanakwane, ndipo nthambi zake sizidzaphukanso.
33 Aliba ng’omuzabbibu ogugiddwako emizabbibu egitannaba kwengera, ng’omuzeyituuni ogukunkumula ebikoola byagwo.
Iye adzakhala ngati mtengo wamphesa wopululidwa zipatso zake zisanapse, adzakhala ngati mtengo wa olivi umene wayoyola maluwa ake.
34 Kubanga ekibiina ky’abatatya Katonda kinaabeeranga kigumba, era omuliro gunaayokyanga weema ezinaabangamu enguzi.
Pakuti anthu osapembedza Mulungu adzakhala osabala ndipo moto udzapsereza nyumba za onse okonda ziphuphu.
35 Baba embuto ez’ekibi ne bazaala obutali butuukirivu, embuto zaabwe zizaala obulimba.”
Iwo amalingalira zaupandu ndipo amachita zoyipa; mtima wawo umakonzekera zachinyengo.”
