1 Bw’otuulanga okulya n’omufuzi, weetegerezanga ebiri mu maaso go;
Kana ukagara pakudya pamwe chete nomubati, nyatsocherechedza zviri pamberi pako,
2 era weegendereze bw’obanga omanyi ng’olulunkanira ebyokulya.
uise banga pahuro kana uri munhu wamadyo.
3 Tolulunkanira mmere ye ennungi, kubanga erimbalimba.
Usapanga zvokudya zvake zvinonaka nokuti zvokudya izvozvo zvinonyengera.
4 Teweemalangako mirembe ng’oyaayaanira obugagga; weefuge obeere mukkakkamu.
Usazvionza nokuda kuwana pfuma; iva nouchenjeri hunoita kuti uzvibate.
5 Eby’obugagga obikubako eriiso limu nga by’agenze dda, kubanga ddala bimera ebiwaawaatiro ne bibuuka mu bbanga ng’empungu.
Kungoti tarisei papfuma, wanei yaenda, nokuti zvirokwazvo inomera mapapiro igobhururuka ichienda kudenga segondo.
6 Tolyanga mmere ya muntu mukodo, wadde okwegomba ebirungi by’alya.
Usadya zvokudya zvomunhu anonyima, kana kupanga zvokudya zvake zvinonaka;
7 Kubanga ye muntu abalirira ensimbi z’asaasaanyizza, n’akugamba nti, “Weeriire, weenywere,” naye ng’omutima gwe tegukusanyukira.
nokuti munhu uya anongofunga chete mutengo wazvo. Anoti kwauri, “Idya ugonwa,” asi mumwoyo make asingadi.
8 Akatono k’onooba olidde onookasesema, ebigambo byo ebirungi eby’okwebaza bibe bya bwereere.
Ucharutsa zvishoma izvozvo zvawadya, uye unenge watambisa mashoko ako nokumutenda.
9 Totegana kubuulirira musirusiru, kubanga ajja kunyooma ebigambo byo eby’amagezi.
Usataura nebenzi, nokuti richashora uchenjeri hwamashoko ako.
10 Tojjululanga nsalo ey’edda, so toyingiriranga nnimiro za bamulekwa,
Usabvisa dombo romuganhu wakare kana kupinda paminda yenherera,
11 kubanga abalwanirira w’amaanyi, alikuggulako omusango.
nokuti Mudziviriri wavo ane simba; iye achavarwira pamhaka yavo newe.
12 Ossangayo omwoyo eri okuyigirizibwa, n’amatu go eri ebigambo by’okutegeera.
Isa mwoyo wako kumurayiro nenzeve dzako kumashoko ezivo.
13 Tolekangayo kukangavvula mwana, bw’omubonereza n’akaggo tekimutta.
Usarega kuranga mwana; ukamuranga neshamhu, haafi.
14 Mubonerezenga n’akaggo, kiwonye emmeeme ye okufa. (Sheol h7585)
Murange neshamhu ugoponesa mweya wake kubva parufu. (Sheol h7585)
15 Mwana wange, bw’oba n’omutima ogw’amagezi, kinsanyusa.
Mwanakomana wangu, kana mwoyo wako wakachenjera, ipapo mwoyo wangu uchafara;
16 Nnaajjaguzanga okuva ku ntobo y’omutima gwange, bw’onooyogeranga ebituufu.
mukatikati mangu muchapembera kana miromo yako ichitaura zvakarurama.
17 Omutima gwo gulemenga okukwatirwa aboonoonyi obuggya, kyokka nyiikira okutya Mukama ebbanga lyonna.
Usarega mwoyo wako uchichiva vatadzi, asi nguva dzose shingairira kutya Jehovha.
18 Mazima ddala onoobanga n’essuubi mu biseera eby’omu maaso, n’essuubi lyo eryo teririggwaawo.
Zvirokwazvo ramangwana rako rine tariro, uye tariro yako haingaparadzwi.
19 Mwana wange wulirizanga, obeerenga n’amagezi, okumenga omutima gwo mu kkubo ettuufu.
Teerera, mwanakomana wangu, ugova nouchenjeri, uye uchengete mwoyo wako panzira yakarurama.
20 Teweegattanga ku abo abeekamirira omwenge, n’abalulunkanira ennyama:
Usabatana navaya vanonwa waini zhinji, kunyange vaya vanokara nyama,
21 Kubanga omutamiivu n’omuluvu baavuwala, n’okubongoota olutata kubambaza enziina.
nokuti zvidhakwa nevane madyo vachava varombo, uye hope dzichavapfekedza mamvemve.
22 Wulirizanga kitaawo eyakuzaala, so togayanga nnyoko ng’akaddiye.
Teerera kuna baba vako, ivo vakakubereka, uye usazvidza mai vako kana vachinge vakwegura.
23 Gula amazima so togatunda, ffuna amagezi, n’okuyigirizibwa n’okutegeera.
Tenga zvokwadi urege kuzoitengesa; uwane uchenjeri, kuzvibata nokunzwisisa.
24 Kitaawe w’omutuukirivu alina essanyu lingi, n’oyo azaala omwana ow’amagezi amwenyumiririzaamu.
Baba vomunhu akarurama vane mufaro mukuru; uyo ane mwanakomana akachenjera anofadzwa naye.
25 Leka kitaawo ne nnyoko basanyuke, omukazi eyakuzaala ajaguzenga.
Baba vako namai vako ngavafare; mai vakakubereka ngavafare kwazvo!
26 Mwana wange mpa omutima gwo, n’amaaso go geekalirize amakubo gange,
Mwanakomana wangu, ndipe mwoyo wako uye meso ako ngaananʼanidze nzira dzangu,
27 kubanga omukazi omwenzi lukonko luwanvu, n’omukazi omubambaavu luzzi lufunda.
nokuti chifeve igomba rakadzika, uye mukadzi asingazvibati itsime rakamanikana.
28 Ateega ng’omutemu, n’ayongera ku muwendo gw’abasajja abatali beesigwa eri bakazi baabwe.
Segororo anohwandira, anowedzera vasina kutendeka pakati pavarume.
29 Ani alina obuyinike? Ani alina ennaku? Ani alina ennyombo? Ani alina okwemulugunya? Ani alina ebiwundu eby’obwereere? Ani amyuse amaaso?
Ndiani ane nhamo? Ndiani akasuwa? Ndiani anokakavara? Ndiani anonyunyuta? Ndiani ane mavanga pasina mhaka? Ndiani ane meso akatsvuka?
30 Abo abatava ku mwenge, nga bagenda baloza ku mwenge omutabule.
Vaya vanogara pawaini, vanoenda kundoravira makate ewaini yakavhenganiswa.
31 Totunuulira wayini ng’amyuse, bw’atemaganira mu ggiraasi ng’akka empolampola;
Usatarisa waini kana yatsvuka, kana ichivaima iri mumukombe, kana ichidzika zvakanaka pakunwa!
32 ku nkomerero aluma ng’omusota, wa busagwa ng’essalambwa.
Pakupedzisira inoruma senyoka uye ine uturu semvumbi.
33 Amaaso go galiraba ebyewuunyo, n’omutwe gwo ne gulowooza ebitategeerekeka.
Meso ako achaona zvisakamboonekwa uye pfungwa dzako dzichafunga zvakapesana.
34 Oliba ng’omuntu eyeebase wakati mu nnyanja, obanga oyo alengejjera waggulu ku mulongooti.
Uchava souya akarara pamusoro pamafungu amakungwa, kana somunhu avete pamusoro pedanda rechikepe.
35 Olyogera nti, “Bankubye, naye sirumiddwa. Bankubye naye sirina kye mpuliddemu. Nnaazuukuka ddi, neeyongere okunywa?”
Uchati, “Vakandirova, asi handina kukuvara! Vakandirova asi handina kuzvinzwa! Ndichamuka rinhiko kuti ndigotsvakazve waini?”
