< Whakatauki 21 >
1 Kei roto te ngakau o te kingi i te ringa o Ihowa ano he awa rerenga wai; e whakaangahia ana e ia ki nga wahi katoa e pai ai ia.
Mtima wa mfumu uli ngati mtsinje wamadzi mʼdzanja la Yehova; Iye amautsongolera pa chilichonse chimene akufuna.
2 Ko nga ara katoa o te tangata, tika kau ki ona kanohi ake: ko Ihowa ia hei pauna i nga ngakau.
Makhalidwe a munthu amaoneka olungama kwa mwini wakeyo, koma Yehova ndiye amayesa mtima wake.
3 Ko te mahi i te tika, i te whakawa, ki ta Ihowa, pai atu i te patunga tapu.
Za chilungamo ndi zolondola ndi zomwe zimakondweretsa Yehova kuposa kupereka nsembe.
4 He kanohi whakakake, he ngakau whakapehapeha, a ko te rama hoki o te hunga kino, he hara kau.
Maso odzikuza ndi mtima wonyada, zimatsogolera anthu oyipa ngati nyale nʼchifukwa chake amachimwa.
5 Ko nga whakaaro o te tangata uaua e ahu anake ana ki te hua o te taonga: ko te hunga takare katoa ia e whawhai kau ana ki te muhore.
Zolinga za munthu wakhama zimachulukitsa zinthu zake; koma aliyense wochita zinthu mofulumira amadzakhala wosauka.
6 E rite ana ta te arero teka ami i te taonga ki te mamaoa e aia noatia ana; ko te hunga e rapu ana i era e rapu ana i te mate.
Chuma chochipeza ndi mawu onyenga ndi chosakhalitsa ndipo chimakola anthu mu msampha wa imfa.
7 Ma te pahua a te hunga kino e tahi atu ratou; mo ratou kahore e pai ki te whakawa.
Chiwawa cha anthu oyipa chidzawawononga, pakuti iwo amakana kuchita zolungama.
8 He ara tino kopikopiko to te tangata e waha ana i te hara: tena ko te tangata ma, he tika tana mahi.
Njira ya munthu wolakwa ndi yokhotakhota, koma makhalidwe a munthu wosalakwa ndi olungama.
9 He pai ke te noho i te kokonga o te tuanui, i te noho tahi me te wahine ngangare i roto i te whare mahorahora.
Nʼkwabwino kukhala wekha pa ngodya ya denga la nyumba, kuposa kukhala mʼnyumba pamodzi ndi mkazi wolongolola.
10 Ko ta te wairua o te tangata kino he hiahia ki te kino; e kore ona kanohi e manako ki tona hoa.
Munthu woyipa amalakalaka zoyipa; sachitira chifundo mnansi wake wovutika.
11 Ki te whiua te tangata whakahi, ka whai whakaaro te kuware: a, ki te whakaakona te tangata whakaaro nui, ka whiwhi ia ki te matauranga.
Munthu wonyoza akalangidwa, anthu opusa amapeza nzeru; koma munthu wanzeru akalangizidwa, amapeza chidziwitso.
12 Ka ata whakaaroa e te tangata tika te whare o te tangata kino; te peheatanga e whakataka ai te hunga kino ki te mate mo ratou.
Zolingalira za munthu woyipa nʼzosabisika pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo Iye adzawononga woyipayo.
13 Ko te tangata e puru ana i ona taringa ki te karanga a te rawakore, tera hoki ia e karanga, heoi e kore e whakarangona.
Amene atsekera mʼkhutu mwake wosauka akamalira, nayenso adzalira koma palibe adzamuyankhe.
14 Ma te mea homai puku ka marie ai te riri, ma te moni whakapati hoki i roto i te uma ka marie ai te aritarita kaha.
Mphatso yoperekedwa mseri imathetsa mkwiyo, ndipo chiphuphu choperekedwa mobisa chimathetsa mphamvu ya ukali woopsa.
15 He mahi koa na te tangata tika te whakawa; mo nga kaimahi ia i te kino, ko te whakangaromanga.
Chilungamo chikachitika anthu olungama amasangalala, koma anthu oyipa amaopsedwa nazo.
16 Ko te tangata e kotiti ke ana i te huarahi o te mahara, ka noho ia i te whakaminenga o nga tupapaku.
Munthu amene amachoka pa njira ya anthu anzeru adzapezeka mʼgulu la anthu akufa.
17 Ko te tangata matenui ki nga ahuareka, ka rawakore: a, ko te tangata e matenui ana ki te waina, ki te hinu, e kore e whai taonga.
Aliyense wokonda zisangalalo adzasanduka mʼmphawi, ndipo wokonda vinyo ndi mafuta sadzalemera.
18 Hei utu te tangata kino mo te tangata tika; a ka haere mai te tangata kopeka hei whakakapi mo te tangata tu tika.
Anthu oyipa adzakhala chowombolera cha anthu olungama ndipo osakhulupirika chowombolera anthu olungama mtima.
19 He pai ke te noho i te koraha, i te noho tahi me te wahine tohetohe, wahine pukukino.
Nʼkwabwino kukhala mʼchipululu kuposa kukhala ndi mkazi wolongolola ndi wopsa mtima msanga.
20 Kei te nohoanga o te tangata whakaaro nui te taonga momohanga me te hinu; heoi maumauria ake e te wairangi.
Munthu wanzeru samwaza chuma chake, koma wopusa amachiwononga.
21 Ko te tangata e whai ana i te tika, i te atawhai, ka whiwhi ki te ora, ki te tika, ki te honore.
Amene amatsata chilungamo ndi kukhulupirika, amapeza moyo ndi ulemerero.
22 Ka pikitia e te tangata whakaaro nui te pa o nga marohirohi, ka taka hoki i a ia te kaha i whakawhirinaki ai ratou.
Munthu wanzeru amagonjetsa mzinda wa anthu amphamvu ndi kugwetsa linga limene iwo amalidalira.
23 Ko te tangata e tiaki ana i tona mangai, i tona arero, e tiaki ana i tona wairua kei raru.
Amene amagwira pakamwa pake ndi lilime lake sapeza mavuto.
24 Ko te tangata whakakake, whakapehapeha, ko te tangata whakahi tona ingoa, e mahi ana ia i runga i te whakahirahira o tona whakamanamana.
Munthu wonyada ndi wodzikuza amamutcha, “Mnyodoli,” iye amachita zinthu modzitama kwambiri.
25 Ka mate te tangata mangere i tona hiahia ano; e kore hoki ona ringa e pai ki te mahi.
Chilakolako cha munthu waulesi chidzamupha yekha chifukwa manja ake amangokhala goba osagwira ntchito.
26 Tera te hanga he kaiapo tonu a pau noa te ra: ko ta te tangata tika ia he homai, kahore hoki ana kaiponu.
Tsiku lonse anthu oyipa amasirira zambiri, koma anthu olungama amapereka mowolowamanja.
27 He mea whakarihariha te whakahere a te tangata kino; tera noa ake ina he te whakaaro i kawea mai ai e ia.
Nsembe ya anthu oyipa imamunyansa Yehova, nanji akayipereka ndi cholinga choyipa!
28 Ka mate te kaiwhakaatu teka; na, ko te tangata whakarongo, ka korero, kahore he kaiwhakahe.
Mboni yonama idzawonongeka, koma mawu a munthu wakumva adzakhala nthawi zonse.
29 Ka whakamaro te tangata kino i tona mata: tena ko te tangata tika, ka whakapai i ona ara.
Munthu woyipa amafuna kudzionetsa ngati wolimba mtima, koma munthu wowongoka amaganizira njira zake.
30 I to Ihowa aroaro kahore he whakaaro nui, kahore he matauranga, kahore he kupu mohio, e tu.
Palibe nzeru, palibe kumvetsa bwino, palibenso uphungu, zimene zingapambane Yehova.
31 Kua rite noa ake he hoiho mo te ra o te whawhai; kei a Ihowa ia te whakaoranga.
Kavalo amamukonzera tsiku la nkhondo, koma ndi Yehova amene amapambanitsa.
