1 Okuddamu n’eggonjebwa kumalawo ekiruyi, naye ekigambo eky’obukambwe kisaanuula obusungu.

15 Omuntu bw’aba omunyiikaavu, buli kimu kimwononekera, naye omutima omusanyufu gujaguza buli kaseera.
Munthu woponderezedwa masiku ake onse amakhala oyipa, koma mtima wachimwemwe umakhala pa chisangalalo nthawi zonse.
16 Okuba n’akatono ng’otya Mukama, kusinga okuba n’ebingi naye ng’oli mu mitawaana.
Kuli bwino kukhala ndi zinthu pangʼono nʼkumaopa Yehova, kusiyana ndi kukhala ndi chuma chambiri uli pamavuto.
17 Okulya emmere ng’eriko enva endiirwa awali okwagalana, kisinga okuliirako ebyassava awali obukyayi.
Kuli bwino kudyera ndiwo zamasamba pamene pali chikondi, kusiyana ndi kudyera nyama yangʼombe yonenepa pamene pali udani.
18 Omuntu asunguwala amangu asaanuula oluyombo, naye omugumiikiriza akakkanya embeera.
Munthu wopsa mtima msanga amayambitsa mikangano, koma munthu woleza mtima amathetsa ndewu.
19 Ekkubo ly’omugayaavu lijjula amaggwa, naye ekkubo ly’omutuukirivu golokofu.

21 Obusirusiru ssanyu eri oyo atalina magezi, naye omuntu ategeera atambulira mu kkubo eggolokofu.
Uchitsiru umakondweretsa munthu wopanda nzeru, koma munthu womvetsa zinthu amayenda mowongoka.

23 Okuddamu obulungi kisanyusa, era kirungi ekigambo ekirungi okujjira mu kiseera ekituufu.
Munthu amakondwera ndi kuyankha koyenera, ndipo mawu onena pa nthawi yake ndi okoma.
24 Ekkubo ery’obulamu liyimusa omugezi, ne limuziyiza okukka emagombe. (Sheol h7585)
Munthu wanzeru amatsata njira yopita ku moyo kuti apewe malo okhala anthu akufa. (Sheol h7585)
25 Mukama azikiriza ennyumba y’ab’amalala, kyokka akuuma ensalo za nnamwandu.
Yehova amapasula nyumba ya munthu wonyada koma amasamalira malo a mkazi wamasiye.

28 Omutima gw’omutuukirivu gufumiitiriza bye gunaayanukula, naye akamwa k’omwonoonyi kafubutula ebitasaana.
Munthu wolungama amaganizira za mmene ayankhire, koma pakamwa pa munthu woyipa pamatulutsa mawu oyipa.
29 Mukama ali wala n’aboonoonyi, naye awulira okusaba kw’abatuukirivu.
Yehova amakhala kutali ndi anthu oyipa, koma amamva pemphero la anthu olungama.
30 Amaaso agajjudde essanyu gasanyusa omutima, n’amawulire amalungi galeetera amagumba obulamu.
Kuwala kwa maso kumasangalatsa mtima ndipo uthenga wabwino umalimbitsa munthu.
31 Oyo assaayo omwoyo eri okunenyezebwa okuleeta obulamu, alituula wamu n’abagezi.
Womvera mawu a chidzudzulo amene apatsa moyo adzakhala pakati pa anthu anzeru.
32 Agayaalirira okubuulirirwa yeerumya yekka, naye oyo assaayo omwoyo eri okunenyezebwa afuna okutegeera.
Amene amanyoza mwambo amadzinyoza yekha, koma womvera mawu a chidzudzulo amapeza nzeru zomvetsa zinthu.
33 Okutya Mukama kuyigiriza omuntu amagezi, n’obwetoowaze kye kitiibwa ky’omuntu oyo.
Kuopa Yehova kumaphunzitsa munthu nzeru, ndipo kudzichepetsa ndi ulemu chili patsogolo ndi kudzichepetsa.
