Engero 31
1 Ebigambo bya kabaka Lemweri bye yayogera, nnyina bye yamuyigiriza.
Amazwi kaLemuweli inkosi yeMasa, unina amfundisa wona.
2 Ggwe mutabani wange, ggwe mutabani w’enda yange, ggwe mutabani w’obweyamo bwange.
Ini, ndodana yami! Ini-ke, ndodana yesizalo sami! Ini-ke, ndodana yezithembiso zami!
3 Tomaliranga maanyi go ku bakazi, newaakubadde amaanyi go ku abo abazikiriza bakabaka.
Unganiki amandla akho kwabesifazana, kumbe izindlela zakho ekubhubhiseni amakhosi.
4 Ggwe Lemweri, si kya bakabaka, si kya bakabaka okunywanga omwenge, so si kya balangira okwegombanga omwenge,
Kakusikwamakhosi, Lemuweli, kakusikwamakhosi ukunatha iwayini, kumbe okweziphathamandla ukuloyisa okunathwayo okulamandla.
5 si kulwa nga bagunywa ne beerabira amateeka, ne batalamula mu bwenkanya abantu baabwe abatulugunyizibwa.
Hlezi anathe, akhohlwe isimiso, aguqule isahlulelo sawo wonke amadodana enhlupheko.
6 Ekitamiiza mukiwenga oyo ayagala okufa, n’omwenge oyo alina emmeeme eriko obuyinike.
Phana okunathwayo okulamandla kobhubhayo, lewayini kwabababayo emphefumulweni.
7 Mumuleke anywenga yeerabire obwavu bwe, alemenga kujjukira nate buyinike bwe.
Kanathe, akhohlwe ubuyanga bakhe, angabe esakhumbula usizi lwakhe.
8 Yogereranga abo abatasobola kweyogerera, otunulenga mu nsonga z’abo bonna abaasigala ettayo.
Vulela isimungulu umlomo wakho, udaba lwabo bonke abamiselwe incithakalo.
9 Yogera olamulenga n’obwenkanya, olwanirirenga abaavu n’abali mu bwetaavu.
Vula umlomo wakho, wahlulele ngokulunga, umele ilungelo lomyanga loswelayo.
10 Omukazi omwegendereza ani ayinza okumulaba? Wa muwendo nnyo okusinga amayinja ag’omuwendo ennyo.
Ngubani ongathola umfazi okhuthela okulungileyo? Ngoba intengo yakhe iyedlula kakhulu amatshe amahle.
11 Bba amwesiga n’omutima gwe gwonna, era bba talina kyonna kya muwendo ky’abulwa.
Inhliziyo yomkakhe ithemba kuye, ukuze angasweli impango.
12 Aleetera bba essanyu so tamukola kabi, obulamu bwe bwonna.
Umenzela okuhle, hatshi okubi, insuku zonke zempilo yakhe.
13 Anoonya ebyoya by’endiga n’anoonya ne ppamba, n’akola emirimu gye mu ssanyu eritayogerekeka.
Udinga uboya bezimvu lefilakisi, asebenze ngenjabulo yezandla zakhe.
14 Ali ng’ebyombo by’abasuubuzi, aleeta emmere okuva mu nsi ezeewala.
Ufanana lemikhumbi yomthengisi; uletha ukudla kwakhe kuvela khatshana.
15 Agolokoka tebunnakya, n’awa ab’omu nnyumba ye ebyokulya, n’agabira abaweereza be abawala be abaweereza emirimu egy’okukola.
Uvuka kusesebusuku, anike indlu yakhe ukudla, lesabelo kuzincekukazi zakhe.
16 Alowooza ku nnimiro n’agigula; asimba ennimiro ey’emizabbibu n’ebibala by’emikono gye.
Anakane ngensimu ayizuze; ngesithelo sezandla zakhe ahlanyele ivini.
17 Omukazi oyo akola n’amaanyi omulimu gwe, emikono gye gikwata n’amaanyi emirimu gye.
Uyabhinca ukhalo lwakhe ngamandla, aqinise ingalo zakhe.
18 Ayiiya ebyamaguzi ebirimu amagoba n’abisuubula, era n’ettabaaza ye ekiro tezikira.
Uyananzelela ukuthi ukuthengisa kwakhe kuhle; isibane sakhe kasicitshi ebusuku.
19 Anyweza omuti oguluka ppamba mu mukono gwe, engalo ze ne zikwata akati akalanga.
Welulela izandla zakhe kuluthi lokuphotha, lezandla zakhe zibambe isigodo esilezintambo.
20 Ayanjululiza abaavu omukono gwe, n’agololera omukono gwe oyo ali mu bwetaavu.
Welulela umyanga isandla sakhe, elulele izandla zakhe koswelayo.
21 Mu biseera by’obutiti taba na kutya, kubanga ab’omu nnyumba ye bonna baba n’engoye ez’okwambala.
Kesabi iliqhwa elikhithikileyo ngenxa yabendlu yakhe, ngoba bonke abendlu yakhe bagqokiswe okubomvu.
22 Yeekolera ebibikka obuliri bwe, era engoye ze za linena omulungi, za ffulungu.
Uzenzela izembeso; isigqoko sakhe sililembu elicolekileyo leliyibubende.
23 Bba amanyibbwa, y’omu ku bakulu abakulembera ensi, era ateeseza mu nkiiko enkulu.
Umkakhe uyaziwa emasangweni, lapho ehlezi labadala belizwe.
24 Omukazi atunga ebyambalo ebya linena n’abitunda, n’aguza abasuubuzi enkoba.
Wenza ilembu elicolekileyo kakhulu, alithengise; anike umthengi ibhanti.
25 Amaanyi n’ekitiibwa bye byambalo bye, era tatya ebiro ebigenda okujja.
Amandla lodumo kuyisigqoko sakhe; uyahleka mayelana losuku olulandelayo.
26 Ayogera n’amagezi, era ayigiriza ebyekisa.
Uvula umlomo wakhe ngenhlakanipho; lemfundiso yomusa iselimini lwakhe.
27 Alabirira nnyo empisa z’ab’omu nnyumba ye, era talya mmere ya bugayaavu.
Uqaphela inhambo zomuzi wakhe; kadli isinkwa sobuvila.
28 Abaana be bagolokoka ne bamuyita wa mukisa, ne bba n’amutendereza ng’ayogera nti,
Abantwana bakhe bayavuka bathi ubusisiwe, lomkakhe laye uyamdumisa:
29 “Abakazi bangi abakola eby’ekitiibwa naye bonna ggwe obasinga.”
Manengi amadodakazi enze ngenkuthalo, kodwa wena wenyukile phezu kwawo wonke.
30 Obubalagavu bulimba n’endabika ennungi teriiko kyegasa, naye omukazi atya Mukama anaatenderezebwanga.
Ubuhle buyinkohliso, lokubukeka kuyize; owesifazana owesaba iNkosi yena uzadunyiswa.
31 Mumusasule empeera gy’akoleredde, n’emirimu gye gimuweesenga ettendo ku miryango gy’ekibuga.
Mnikeni okuvela esithelweni sezandla zakhe, lemisebenzi yakhe kayimdumise emasangweni.
