Zabbuli 1

1 Alina omukisa omuntu atatambulira mu kuteesa kw’ababi, era atayimirira mu kibiina ky’ababi, newaakubadde okutuula n’abo abanyooma ebya Katonda.

Ubusisiwe umuntu ongahambi ngezeluleko zababi; ongemiyo endleleni yezoni; ongahlaliyo esihlalweni sabaklolodayo.

2 Naye asanyukira okugondera amateeka ga Mukama, era mu mateeka ago mw’alowooleza emisana n’ekiro.

Kodwa ukuthokoza kwakhe kusemthethweni kaThixo, futhi unakana ngomthetho wakhe imini lobusuku.

3 Afaanana ng’omuti ogwasimbibwa ku mabbali g’omugga, ogubala ebibala byagwo mu ntuuko zaabyo, n’ebikoola byagwo tebiwotoka. Na buli ky’akola kivaamu birungi byereere.

Unjengesihlahla esihlanyelwe emifuleni yamanzi, esithela izithelo zaso ngesikhathi saso, ohlamvu laso kalibuni. Konke akwenzayo kuyaphumelela.

4 Naye abakola ebibi tebakola bwe batyo. Bali ng’ebisusunku ebifuumuuliddwa.

Ababi kabanjalo! Banjengamakhoba aphetshulwa ngumoya.

5 Noolwekyo abakola ebibi tebaligumira lunaku lwa kusalirako musango; newaakubadde aboonoonyi okuyimirira mu kibiina ky’abatuukirivu.

Ngakho ababi kabayikuma ekwahlulelweni, noma izoni enkundleni yabalungileyo.

6 Kubanga Mukama alabirira ekkubo ly’abatuukirivu, naye ekkubo ly’abakola ebibi liribula.

Ngoba uThixo uyayilinda indlela yabalungileyo, kodwa indlela yababi iya ekubhujisweni.
