Yobu 36
1 Eriku ne yeeyongera okwogera nti,
Elihu toaa ne kasa so sɛ,
2 “Yongera okuŋŋumiikirizaako katono nkulage, nkyalina bye nnina okwogera ebifa ku Katonda.
“Monto mo bo ase kakra mma me, na mɛkyerɛ mo sɛ aka bebree a ɛsɛ sɛ yɛka ma Onyankopɔn.
3 Amagezi ge nnina gava wala, era mmanyi nga Omutonzi wange alamula mu bwenkanya.
Menya me nimdeɛ firi akyirikyiri; mɛka sɛ me Yɛfoɔ bu atɛntenenee.
4 Eky’amazima ebigambo byange si bikyamu, oyo akakasa by’amanyi y’ayogera naawe.
Monnye ntom sɛ me nsɛm yɛ nokorɛ turodoo; na meyɛ obi a ne nimdeɛ so wɔ mo mu.
5 “Laba, Katonda wa buyinza, tanyooma bantu; w’amaanyi, anywerera ku bigendererwa bye.
“Onyankopɔn so, nanso, ɔntwiri nnipa; ɔkorɔn na ɔnhinhim ne botaeɛ mu.
6 Talamya bakozi ba bibi, era awa ababonyaabonyezebwa ebibasaanira.
Ɔmma amumuyɛfoɔ ntena nkwa mu, na ɔde amanehunufoɔ kyɛfa ma wɔn.
7 Taggya maaso ge ku batuukirivu, abatuuza ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka n’abagulumiza emirembe n’emirembe.
Ɔnnyi nʼani mfiri ɔteneneeni so. Ɔma wɔne ahemfo di adeɛ na ɔma wɔn so afebɔɔ.
8 Naye abantu bwe baba basibiddwa enjegere nga banywezeddwa n’emiguwa egy’okulumwa
Na sɛ wɔde mpokyerɛ gu nnipa na amanehunu ahoma akyekyere wɔn papee a,
9 n’abategeeza ensobi zaabwe, n’okwonoona kwabwe, nti, beewaggudde,
ɔka deɛ wɔayɛ kyerɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnam ahantan so ayɛ bɔne.
10 aggula amatu gaabwe bawulirize okunenyezebwa n’abalagira beenenye ekibi kyabwe.
Ɔma wɔtie ntenesoɔ na ɔhyɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnnu wɔn ho wɔn bɔne ho.
11 Bwe bamugondera ne bamuweereza, ennaku zaabwe zonna balizimala mu kwesiima, era n’emyaka gyabwe mu kusanyuka.
Sɛ wɔyɛ ɔsetie na wɔsom no a, wɔbɛdi yie wɔ wɔn ɛnna a aka no mu na wɔn mfeɛ nyinaa ayɛ anisɔ ama wɔn.
12 Naye bwe batamugondera, baalizikirizibwa n’ekitala, bafe nga tebalina magezi.
Na sɛ wɔantie no a, wɔbɛyera wɔ akofena ano, na wɔawuwu a wɔnni nimdeɛ.
13 “Ab’emitima egitatya Katonda baba n’obukyayi. Ne bw’abasiba, tebamukaabirira abasumulule.
“Wɔn a wɔnnim Onyame no kora abufuo so; mpo sɛ ɔgu wɔn nkɔnsɔnkɔnsɔn a, wɔnsu mpɛ mmoa.
14 Bafiira mu buvubuka bwabwe era obulamu bwabwe buzikiririra mu basajja abenzi.
Wɔwuwu wɔn mmabunuberɛ mu wɔ adwaman mu, wɔ mmarima adwamanfoɔ a wɔtete abosonnan mu mu.
15 Anunula anyigirizibwa mu kubonaabona kwe, n’aggula okutu kwe mu kujoogebwa kwe.
Nanso, wɔn a wɔhunu amane no, ɔgye wɔn; na ɔkasa kyerɛ wɔn wɔ wɔn haw mu.
16 “Akusendasenda okukuggya mu kamwa k’okubonaabona, akuteeke mu kifo ekigazi ekitaliimu kuziyizibwa, omanye emirembe gy’emeeza yo ejjudde emmere ennungi.
“Ɔregye wo afiri ahohiahia mu de wo akɔ petee mu a ahokyere nnie, deɛ wowɔ asomdwoeɛ, na nnuane pa ayɛ wo ɛpono so ma.
17 Naye kaakano weetisse omugugu ogw’okusalirwa omusango abakozi b’ebibi gwe basaanira; okusalirwa omusango n’obwenkanya byakunyweza.
Nanso seesei, atemmuo a ɛfata amumuyɛfoɔ na aba wo so; atemmuo ne atɛntenenee asɔ wo mu.
18 Weegendereze oleme kukkiriza kusendebwasendebwa; obunene bw’enguzi buleme okukukyamya.
Hwɛ yie na obi amfa ahonya annaadaa wo; mma adanmudeɛ kɛseɛ bi ntwe wo.
19 Obugagga bwo oba okufuba kwo kwonna binaakuyamba okukuggya mu buyinike?
Wʼahonya anaasɛ mpo wʼahohaw bebrebe nyinaa enti, worenkɔ amanehunu mu anaa?
20 Teweegomba budde bwa kiro olyoke owalule abantu okuva mu bifo byabwe.
Mpere anadwo ho, sɛ ɛmmɛpra nnipa mfiri wɔn afie mu.
21 Weegendereze oleme kukola bitali bya butuukirivu, by’osinga okwagala okukira okubonyaabonyezebwa.
Hwɛ na woannane ankɔ bɔne ho, deɛ ayɛ sɛ wopɛ sene amanehunu.
22 “Laba Katonda yagulumira mu maanyi ge; ani ayigiriza nga ye?
“Onyankopɔn yɛ kɛseɛ wɔ ne tumi mu. Hwan na ɔyɛ ɔkyerɛkyerɛfoɔ sɛ ɔno?
23 Ani eyali amukubidde amakubo, oba okumugamba nti, ‘Ky’okoze si kituufu?’
Hwan na wahyehyɛ nʼakwan ama no anaa waka akyerɛ no sɛ, ‘Woayɛ mfomsoɔ.’
24 Jjukira ng’oteekwa okugulumizanga emirimu gye, abantu gye bayimba mu nnyimba.
Kae na kamfo nʼadwuma a nnipa de nnwontoɔ akamfo no.
25 Abantu bonna baagiraba, omuntu agirengerera wala.
Adasamma nyinaa ahunu; nnipa hwɛ haa firi akyirikyiri.
26 Laba, Katonda agulumizibwe! Assukiridde okutegeera kwaffe; obungi bw’emyaka gye tebunoonyezeka.
Onyankopɔn yɛ kɛseɛ, ɛboro yɛn nteaseɛ so! Ne mfeɛ dodoɔ mu nni hwehwɛbea.
27 “Kubanga akuŋŋaanya amatondo g’amazzi, agafuuka enkuba etonnya mu bugga;
“Ɔtwetwe nsuo a ɛsosɔ, ma ɛdane osutɔ gu asutene mu;
28 ebire bivaamu amazzi gaabyo, enkuba n’ekuba abantu.
na omununkum tɔ bosuo gu fam na osutɔ bebree gu adasamma so.
29 Ani ayinza okutegeera engeri gy’asaasaanyamu ebire, okubwatuka okuva ku kituuti kye?
Hwan na ɔbɛtumi ate sɛdeɛ ɔtrɛtrɛ omununkum mu ase, sɛdeɛ ɔbobɔ mu firi nʼatenaeɛ?
30 Laba, asaasaanya okumyansa kw’eggulu, era n’abikka obuziba bw’ennyanja.
Hwɛ sɛdeɛ ɔhwete nʼanyinam mu wɔ ne ho ma ɛkɔ ɛpo bunu mu.
31 Eyo y’engeri gy’afugamu amawanga, n’agawa emmere mu bungi.
Yei ne ɛkwan a ɔfa so di amanaman no so na ɔma aduane bu wɔn so.
32 Emikono gye agijjuza eraddu, n’agiragira ekube ebifo bye yeerondeddemu.
Ɔde anyinam hyɛ ne nsam ma na ɔhyɛ no sɛ ɛnsi nʼagyiraeɛ.
33 Okubwatuka kwayo kulangirira kibuyaga ajja, n’ente ne zirangirira okujja kwayo.”
Nʼaprannaa bɔ ahum a ɛreba no ho nkaeɛ; na anantwie mpo ma wɔhunu sɛ ɛreba.
