1 Mwana wange, teweerabiranga bintu bye nakuyigiriza, era okuumanga ebiragiro byange mu mutima gwo,
Ndodana yami, ungakhohlwa umlayo wami, kodwa inhliziyo yakho kayigcine imilayo yami.
2 kubanga bijja kuwangaaza obulamu bwo ku nsi, era bikukulaakulanye.
Ngoba yengezelela kuwe ubude bezinsuku leminyaka yempilo lokuthula.
3 Amazima n’ekisa tobyerabiranga; byesibe mu bulago bwo, obiwandiike ku mutima gwo.
Umusa lothembeko kakungakutshiyi, kubophele entanyeni yakho, ukubhale esibhebheni senhliziyo yakho.
4 Bw’otyo bw’onoofuna okuganja n’okusiimibwa eri Katonda n’eri abantu.
Ngalokho uzathola umusa lokuqedisisa okuhle emehlweni kaNkulunkulu labantu.
5 Weesige Mukama n’omutima gwo gwonna, so teweesigamanga ku magezi go gokka.
Themba eNkosini ngenhliziyo yakho yonke, ungeyami ekuqedisiseni kwakho.
6 Mukama mukulembezenga mu by’okola byonna, naye anaakuluŋŋamyanga n’owangula.
Ivume endleleni zakho zonke, yona-ke izaqondisa imikhondo yakho.
7 Amagezi go tegakusigulanga, naye otyanga Mukama, era weewale okukola ebibi.
Ungabi ngohlakaniphileyo emehlweni akho; yesabe iNkosi, usuke ebubini.
8 Onoofunanga obulamu mu mubiri gwo n’amagumba go ne gadda buggya.
Kuzakuba yikwelatshwa kwenkaba yakho, lokunathwayo kwamathambo akho.
9 Mukama mugulumizenga n’eby’obugagga byo; n’ebibala ebisooka eby’ebintu byo byonna eby’omu nnimiro yo,
Hlonipha iNkosi ngemfuyo yakho, langezithelo zakho zokuqala zesivuno sakho sonke.
10 olwo amaterekero go lwe ganajjulanga ebintu enkumu, era n’amasenero go ne gajjula ne gabooga omwenge omusu.
Khona iziphala zakho zizagcwaliswa ngenala, lezikhamelo zakho zewayini ziphuphume iwayini elitsha.
11 Mwana wange tonyoomanga kukangavvula kwa Mukama, n’okunenya kwe kulemenga okukukooya,
Ndodana yami, ungadeleli ukulaya kweNkosi, unganengwa yikukhuza kwayo.
12 kubanga Mukama anenya oyo gw’ayagala, nga kitaawe w’omwana bw’anenya mutabani we gwe yeenyumiririzaamu.
Ngoba iNkosi iyamlaya emthandayo, yebo, njengoyise indodana athokoza ngayo.
13 Aweereddwa omukisa oyo afuna amagezi, omuntu oyo afuna okutegeera,
Ubusisiwe umuntu othola inhlakanipho, lomuntu ozuza ukuqedisisa.
14 kubanga amagezi gasinga ffeeza era galimu amagoba okusinga zaabu.
Ngoba inzuzo yakho ingcono kulenzuzo yesiliva, lokutholakalayo kwakho kulegolide.
15 Amagezi ga muwendo mungi okusinga amayinja ag’omuwendo omungi: era tewali kyegombebwa kiyinza kugeraageranyizibwa nago.
Kuligugu elidlula amatshe aligugu, lakho konke ongakufisa kakulinganiswa lakho.
16 Mu mukono gwago ogwa ddyo mwe muli obuwanguzi; ne mu mukono gwago ogwa kkono ne mubaamu obugagga n’ekitiibwa.
Ubude bezinsuku busesandleni sakho sokunene, kwesokhohlo sakho inotho lodumo.
17 Mu magezi mulimu essanyu, era n’amakubo gaago ga mirembe.
Izindlela zakho zizindlela zentokozo, lemikhondo yakho yonke iyikuthula.
18 Amagezi muti gwa bulamu eri abo abagakwata ne baganyweza; abo abagakwata ne baganyweza baliweebwa omukisa.
Kuyisihlahla sempilo kwabakubambayo, lobambelela kukho ubusisiwe.
19 Amagezi, Mukama ge yakozesa okuteekawo emisingi gy’ensi; n’okutegeera kwe yakozesa okuteekawo eggulu;
Ngenhlakanipho iNkosi yasekela umhlaba; yamisa amazulu ngokuqedisisa.
20 n’okumanya kwe, kwe yakozesa okwawula obuziba bw’ennyanja, era n’ebire ne bivaamu omusulo.
Ngolwazi lwayo izinziki zaqhekezwa, lamayezi athonta amazolo.
21 Mwana wange, beeranga n’okuteesa okulungi n’okusalawo ebisaana, ebyo biremenga okukuvaako,
Ndodana yami, kakungasuki emehlweni akho; gcina inhlakanipho eqotho lengqondo.
22 binaabeeranga obulamu eri emmeeme yo, era ekyokwambala ekirungi ekinaawoomesanga obulago bwo.
Njalo kuzakuba yimpilo yomphefumulo wakho, lesisa entanyeni yakho.
23 Bw’otyo bw’onootambulanga nga onyweredde mu kkubo lyo, era ekigere kyo tekijjanga kwesittala.
Khona uzahamba indlela yakho uvikelekile, lonyawo lwakho kaluyikukhubeka.
24 Bw’onoogalamiranga toobenga na kutya, weewaawo bw’oneebakanga otulo tunaakuwoomeranga.
Nxa ulala phansi, kawuyikwesaba, yebo, uzalala, lobuthongo bakho buzakuba mnandi.
25 Totyanga kabenje kootomanyiridde, wadde okuzikirira okujjira abakozi b’ebibi,
Ungesabi uvalo olujumayo, kumbe ukuchitheka kwababi nxa kufika.
26 Kubanga Mukama y’anaabeeranga obwesigwa bwo, era anaalabiriranga ekigere kyo ne kitakwatibwa mu mutego.
Ngoba iNkosi izakuba sethembeni lakho, igcine unyawo lwakho ukuze lungabanjwa.
27 Tommanga birungi abo be bisaanira bwe kibeera mu buyinza bwo okukikola.
Ungagodleli umninikho okuhle nxa kusemandleni esandla sakho ukukwenza.
28 Togambanga muliraanwa wo nti, “Genda, onodda enkya ne nkuwa,” ate nga kye yeetaaga okirina.
Ungathi kumakhelwane wakho: Hamba, ubuye, kusasa ngizakunika; nxa ulakho.
29 Totegekanga kukola bulabe ku muliraanwa wo, atudde emirembe ng’akwesiga.
Ungacebi okubi ngomakhelwane wakho, ngoba yena uhlala lawe evikelekile.
30 Tovunaananga muntu n’omu awatali nsonga nga talina kabi k’akukoze.
Ungaphikisani lomuntu kungelasizatho, nxa engakonanga.
31 Tokwatirwanga obuggya omuntu ayigganya abalala, era tokolanga nga ye bw’akola,
Ungahawukeli umuntu olobudlwangudlwangu; ungakhethi leyodwa yezindlela zakhe.
32 kubanga omuntu omugwagwa wa muzizo eri Mukama, naye abo abagolokofu abalinamu obwesige.
Ngoba ophambeneyo uyisinengiso eNkosini, kodwa imfihlo yayo ikwabaqotho.
33 Ekikolimo kya Mukama kiri ku nnyumba y’ababi, naye awa omukisa ennyumba y’abatuukirivu.
Isiqalekiso seNkosi sisendlini yomubi, kodwa iyawubusisa umuzi wabalungileyo.
34 Ddala ddala, Mukama anyooma abanyoomi, naye abeetoowaza abawa ekisa.
Isibili, yona iyabeyisa abeyisayo, kodwa inika umusa kwabathobekileyo.
35 Ab’amagezi balisikira ekitiibwa, naye abasirusiru baliswazibwa.
Abahlakaniphileyo bazakudla ilifa lodumo, kodwa abayizithutha, isabelo sabo silihlazo.
