1 Eriku ne yeeyongera okwogera nti,
Ndipo Elihu anapitirira kuyankhula nati:
2 “Yongera okuŋŋumiikirizaako katono nkulage, nkyalina bye nnina okwogera ebifa ku Katonda.
“Mundilole pangʼono pokha ndipo ndikuonetsani kuti zilipo zambiri zoti ziyankhulidwe mʼmalo mwa Mulungu.
3 Amagezi ge nnina gava wala, era mmanyi nga Omutonzi wange alamula mu bwenkanya.
Nzeru zanga ndimazitenga kutali; ndidzaonetsa kulungama kwa Mlengi wanga.
4 Eky’amazima ebigambo byange si bikyamu, oyo akakasa by’amanyi y’ayogera naawe.
Ndithudi mawu anga si abodza; wanzeru zangwiro ali ndi inu.
5 “Laba, Katonda wa buyinza, tanyooma bantu; w’amaanyi, anywerera ku bigendererwa bye.
“Mulungu ndi wamphamvu, koma sanyoza anthu; Iye ndi wamphamvu, ndipo ndi wokhazikika pa cholinga chake.
6 Talamya bakozi ba bibi, era awa ababonyaabonyezebwa ebibasaanira.
Salola oyipa kuti akhalebe ndi moyo koma amapereka ufulu kwa anthu osautsidwa.
7 Taggya maaso ge ku batuukirivu, abatuuza ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka n’abagulumiza emirembe n’emirembe.
Iye saleka kuyangʼanira anthu olungama; amawayika kuti alamulire pamodzi ndi mafumu ndipo amawalemekeza mpaka muyaya.
8 Naye abantu bwe baba basibiddwa enjegere nga banywezeddwa n’emiguwa egy’okulumwa
Koma ngati anthu amangidwa ndi unyolo, ndipo akondwa ndi zingwe zamasautso,
9 n’abategeeza ensobi zaabwe, n’okwonoona kwabwe, nti, beewaggudde,
Iye amawafotokozera zomwe anachita, kuti iwo anachimwa modzikuza.
10 aggula amatu gaabwe bawulirize okunenyezebwa n’abalagira beenenye ekibi kyabwe.
Mulungu amawatsekula makutu kuti amve malangizo ake ndipo amawalamula kuti alape zoyipa zawo.
11 Bwe bamugondera ne bamuweereza, ennaku zaabwe zonna balizimala mu kwesiima, era n’emyaka gyabwe mu kusanyuka.
Ngati iwo amumvera ndi kumutumikira, adzatsiriza masiku a moyo wawo mwamtendere, adzatsiriza zaka zawo mosangalala.
12 Naye bwe batamugondera, baalizikirizibwa n’ekitala, bafe nga tebalina magezi.
Koma ngati samvera, adzaphedwa ndi lupanga ndipo adzafa osadziwa kanthu.
13 “Ab’emitima egitatya Katonda baba n’obukyayi. Ne bw’abasiba, tebamukaabirira abasumulule.
“Anthu osapembedza amasunga mkwiyo mu mtima mwawo; akawalanga, safuwulira kwa Iye kupempha thandizo.
14 Bafiira mu buvubuka bwabwe era obulamu bwabwe buzikiririra mu basajja abenzi.
Amafa akanali achinyamata, pakati pa amuna achiwerewere a kumalo azipembedzo.
15 Anunula anyigirizibwa mu kubonaabona kwe, n’aggula okutu kwe mu kujoogebwa kwe.
Koma ovutika, Iye amawapulumutsa pa mavuto awo; Mulungu amawayankhula mʼmasautso awowo.
16 “Akusendasenda okukuggya mu kamwa k’okubonaabona, akuteeke mu kifo ekigazi ekitaliimu kuziyizibwa, omanye emirembe gy’emeeza yo ejjudde emmere ennungi.
“Iye akukukopani inu kuti muchoke mʼmasautso, kuti mupite ku malo aakulu kumene kulibe chokutchingani, kumalo a mpumulo kumene kuli chakudya chabwino kwambiri.
17 Naye kaakano weetisse omugugu ogw’okusalirwa omusango abakozi b’ebibi gwe basaanira; okusalirwa omusango n’obwenkanya byakunyweza.
Koma tsopano inu mwapezeka wopalamula chifukwa cha kuyipa kwanu; chiweruzo ndi chilungamo chakugwerani.
18 Weegendereze oleme kukkiriza kusendebwasendebwa; obunene bw’enguzi buleme okukukyamya.
Muchenjere kuti wina asakukopeni ndi chuma; musalole kuti chiphuphu chachikulu chikusocheretseni.
19 Obugagga bwo oba okufuba kwo kwonna binaakuyamba okukuggya mu buyinike?
Kodi chuma chanu kapena mphamvu zanu zonse zingakusungeni kotero kuti simungakhale pa masautso?
20 Teweegomba budde bwa kiro olyoke owalule abantu okuva mu bifo byabwe.
Musalakalake kuti usiku ubwere, pakuti ndiyo nthawi imene anthu adzawonongeka.
21 Weegendereze oleme kukola bitali bya butuukirivu, by’osinga okwagala okukira okubonyaabonyezebwa.
Muchenjere kuti musatembenukire ku uchimo, chifukwa uchimowo ndiwo unabweretsa kuzunzika kwanu.
22 “Laba Katonda yagulumira mu maanyi ge; ani ayigiriza nga ye?
“Taonani, Mulungu ndi wamkulu ndiponso ndi wamphamvu. Kodi ndi mphunzitsi uti amene angafanane naye?
23 Ani eyali amukubidde amakubo, oba okumugamba nti, ‘Ky’okoze si kituufu?’
Kodi ndani amene anamuwuzapo Mulungu zoti achite, kapena kumuwuza kuti, ‘Inu mwachita chinthu cholakwa?’
24 Jjukira ng’oteekwa okugulumizanga emirimu gye, abantu gye bayimba mu nnyimba.
Kumbukirani kutamanda ntchito zake zimene anthu amaziyamika mʼnyimbo.
25 Abantu bonna baagiraba, omuntu agirengerera wala.
Anthu onse amaziona ntchitozo; anthuwo amaziona ali kutali.
26 Laba, Katonda agulumizibwe! Assukiridde okutegeera kwaffe; obungi bw’emyaka gye tebunoonyezeka.
Ndithudi, Mulungu ndi wamkulu, sitimudziwa nʼpangʼono pomwe! Chiwerengero cha zaka zake nʼchosadziwika.
27 “Kubanga akuŋŋaanya amatondo g’amazzi, agafuuka enkuba etonnya mu bugga;
“Mulungu ndiye amakweza timadontho tamadzi kuthambo, timene timasungunuka nʼkukhala mvula;
28 ebire bivaamu amazzi gaabyo, enkuba n’ekuba abantu.
mitambo imagwetsa mvulayo ndipo mvulayo imavumbwa pa anthu mokwanira.
29 Ani ayinza okutegeera engeri gy’asaasaanyamu ebire, okubwatuka okuva ku kituuti kye?
Kodi ndani amene angadziwe momwe mitambo imayendera, momwe Iye amabangulira kuchokera kumalo ake?
30 Laba, asaasaanya okumyansa kw’eggulu, era n’abikka obuziba bw’ennyanja.
Taonani momwe amawalitsira zingʼaningʼani pa malo ake onse, zimafika ngakhale pansi pa nyanja.
31 Eyo y’engeri gy’afugamu amawanga, n’agawa emmere mu bungi.
Umu ndi mmene Iye amalamulira mitundu ya anthu ndi kuwapatsa chakudya chochuluka.
32 Emikono gye agijjuza eraddu, n’agiragira ekube ebifo bye yeerondeddemu.
Amadzaza manja ake ndi zingʼaningʼani, ndipo amazilamulira kuti zigwe pamalo pamene Iye akufuna.
33 Okubwatuka kwayo kulangirira kibuyaga ajja, n’ente ne zirangirira okujja kwayo.”
Mabingu ake amalengeza za kubwera kwa mvula yamkuntho; ngʼombe nazo zimalengeza za kubwera kwake.
