< Engero 25 >
1 Zino nazo ngero za Sulemaani abasajja ba Keezeekiya kabaka wa Yuda ze baakoppolola.
Lezi ngezinye njalo izaga zikaSolomoni, ezabhalwa yizinceku zikaHezekhiya inkosi yakoJuda:
2 Okukisa ensonga kitiibwa kya Katonda, naye okunoonyereza ensonga kitiibwa kya bakabaka.
Kuyinkazimulo kaNkulunkulu ukufihla indaba; ukuchwayisisa indaba ludumo lwababusi.
3 Ng’eggulu bwe lyewanise waggulu ennyo n’ensi bw’ekka ennyo wansi, bwe gityo n’emitima gya bakabaka bwe gitategeerekeka.
Njengalokhu izulu liphakeme lomhlaba ujulile, kanjalo imicabango yamakhosi kayifinyelelwa.
4 Effeeza giggyeemu ebisejja, olyoke ofune omuweesi ky’anaakozesa.
Susa amakhafutha ahlangene lesiliva umkhandi athole ukulungisa isitsha sihle;
5 Ggyawo abakozi b’ebibi mu maaso ga kabaka, entebe ye ey’obwakabaka eryoke enywezebwe mu butuukirivu.
susa abantu ababi phambi kwenkosi, isihlalo sayo sizaqiniswa ngokulunga.
6 Teweekuzanga mu maaso ga kabaka, wadde okwewa ekifo mu bantu ab’ekitiibwa.
Ungaziphakamisi phambi kwenkosi, ungaziphendleli indawo phakathi kwezikhulu;
7 Kubanga okukugamba nti, “Jjangu wano mu maaso,” kisingako okukuswaza mu maaso g’ow’ekitiibwa.
kuba ngcono ukuthi yona ithi, “Woza uhlale ngapha,” kulokuthi yona ikwehlise phambi kwezikhulu. Lokho okubonileyo ngawakho amehlo
8 Amaaso go bye galabye tobyanguyirizanga kubireeta mu mbuga, kubanga oluvannyuma onookola otya munno bw’anaakuswaza?
ungaphangisi ukukubika emthethwandaba, ngoba uzathini nxa umakhelwane wakho esekuyangisa?
9 Bw’owozanga ne muliraanwa wo, tobikkulanga kyama kya muntu mulala,
Nxa ungaya edale lomakhelwane wakho ungahambi usuhlabela imfihlo yenu,
10 akiwulira aleme okukuswaza; n’onyoomebwa ebbanga lyonna.
funa lowo okuzwayo akuyangise uhlale usungumuntu olebizo elibi.
11 Ekigambo ekyogere nga bwe kisaanidde, kiba kya muwendo nnyo nga zaabu gwe batonye mu bintu bye bakoze mu ffeeza.
Ilizwi elikhulunywe ngesikhathi esifaneleyo linjengama-aphula egolide ananyekwe emcepheni wesiliva.
12 Ng’empeta ey’omu kutu eya zaabu, oba akakomo aka zaabu ennungi, bw’atyo omuntu ow’amagezi anenya, bw’abeera eri okutu okuwuliriza.
Njengecici legolide kumbe umceciso wegolide elicengiweyo kunjalo ukukhuza komuntu ohlakaniphileyo, kolalelayo.
13 Ng’obunnyogovu bw’omuzira bwe bubeera mu biseera eby’okukunguliramu, bw’atyo bw’abeera omubaka omwesigwa eri abo abamutuma, aweweeza emmeeme ya bakama be.
Njengokuqanda kongqwaqwane ngesikhathi sokuvuna sinjalo isithunywa esithembekileyo kwabasithumileyo; sivuselela imiphefumulo yabaphathi baso.
14 Ng’ebire n’empewo omutali nkuba, omuntu asuubiza ebirabo by’atagaba bw’abeera.
Njengamayezi lomoya okungalethi izulu unjalo umuntu ozikhukhumeza ngamandla angelawo.
15 Okugumiikiriza okungi kuyinza okukkirizisa omufuzi, n’olulimi olw’eggonjebwa lumenya eggumba.
Ngokubekezela inkosi ingancengwa ize ivume, lolimi oluthambileyo lungalephula ithambo.
16 Bw’ozuula omubisi gw’enjuki, lyako ogwo gwokka ogukumala, si kulwa ng’ogukkuta nnyo n’ogusesema.
Nxa uthole inyosi, dlana okwaneleyo ungedlulisi amalawulo, uzazihlanza.
17 Tokyalanga lunye ewa muliraanwa wo, si kulwa ng’akwetamwa n’akukyawa.
Ungabi ngunsukuzonke endlini kamakhelwane wakho uzacina usumdaka abesekuzonda.
18 Omuntu awa obujulizi obw’obulimba ku muliraanwa we, ali ng’embuukuuli, oba ekitala, oba akasaale akoogi.
Unjengesagila loba inkemba kumbe umtshoko obukhali umuntu ofakaza amanga ngomakhelwane wakhe.
19 Okwesiga omuntu ateesigika, kiri ng’oli alina erinnyo eddwadde oba ekigere ekirema.
Njengezinyo elibuhlungu loba unyawo olwenyeleyo kunjalo ukweyama emuntwini ongathembekanga ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka.
20 Ng’omuntu eyeeyambula engoye mu kiseera eky’obutiti, era ng’omwenge omukaatuufu bwe guteekebwako oluvu, bw’atyo bw’abeera ayimbira oyo ali mu buyinike.
Njengomuntu okhumula ibhatshi mhla kumakhaza, loba njengokuthela iviniga phakathi kwesoda unjalo ohlabelela izingoma emuntwini odabukileyo.
21 Omulabe wo bw’aba alumwa enjala, muwe emmere alye, bw’aba alumwa ennyonta muwe amazzi anywe.
Nxa isitha sakho silambile siphe ukudla sidle; nxa somile siphe amanzi sinathe.
22 Kubanga oliba otuuma amanda g’omuliro ku mutwe gwe, era Mukama alikuwa empeera.
Ngokwenza lokho, umokhela amalahle avuthayo ekhanda, njalo uThixo uzakubusisa.
23 Ng’empewo ey’obukiikakkono bwereeta enkuba, n’olulimi oluyomba bwe luleetera omuntu obusungu.
Njengomoya wasenyakatho uletha izulu, lunjalo ulimi olulobuqili luvusa ulaka.
24 Okusulanga mu kasonda waggulu ku nnyumba, kisinga okubeera n’omukazi omuyombi mu nnyumba.
Kungcono ukuhlala ekhulusini lophahla lwendlu kulokuhlala ndlu yinye lomfazi olomlomo.
25 Ng’amazzi amannyogovu bwe gaba eri emmeeme erumwa ennyonta, bwe gatyo bwe gaba amawulire amalungi agava mu nsi ey’ewala.
Njengamanzi aqandayo emuntwini okhatheleyo, zinjalo izindaba ezimnandi ezivela elizweni elikude.
26 Ng’oluzzi olusiikuuse, oba ensulo eyonoonese, bw’atyo bw’abeera omutuukirivu eyeewaayo eri omukozi w’ebibi.
Njengesiziba esidungekileyo loba umthombo ongcolileyo unjalo umuntu olungileyo odedela umuntu omubi.
27 Si kirungi kulya mubisi gwa njuki mungi, bwe kityo si kirungi omuntu okwenoonyeza ekitiibwa.
Kakukuhle ukudla inyosi wedlulise, njalo kakulasithunzi ukuzidingela ukudunyiswa.
28 Omuntu ateefuga ali ng’ekibuga ekimenyeemenye ne kirekebwa nga tekirina bbugwe.
Njengedolobho eselidilikelwe ngumthangala walo unjalo umuntu ongazithintiyo.
