UmTshumayeli 11
1 Phosela isinkwa sakho phezu kwamanzi, ngoba ngemva kwensuku ezinengi uzasifumana futhi.
Ikia irio ciaku igũrũ rĩa maaĩ, nĩ ũndũ thuutha wa matukũ maingĩ nĩũgaaciona rĩngĩ.
2 Yabela abayisikhombisa, yebo abayisificaminwembili, ngoba kawuwazi umonakalo ongehlela elizweni.
He andũ mũgwanja rwĩga, ĩĩ, o na ũhe andũ anana, nĩgũkorwo wee ndũngĩmenya mũtino ũrĩa ũngĩũka bũrũri-inĩ.
3 Nxa amayezi ethwele, anisa izulu emhlabathini. Aluba isihlahla singawela eningizimu loba enhla, silala khonapho esiwele khona.
Matu mangĩiyũra mbura, mamiuragia gũkũ thĩ. Mũtĩ ũngĩgũa na mwena wa gũthini, kana mwena wa gathigathini, o harĩa ũgũũaga, hau no ho ũikaraga.
4 Lowo onanzelela umoya kayikuhlanyela; lowo okhangela amayezi akazukuvuna.
Mũndũ ũrĩa wothe ũcũthagĩrĩria rũhuho, ndahaandaga; nake ũrĩa ũroraga matu, ndagethaga.
5 Njengoba ungayazi indlela yomoya, loba ukubunjwa komzimba esiswini sikanina, yikho ungeke uzwisise umsebenzi kaNkulunkulu, uMenzi wezinto zonke.
Tondũ ndũũĩ njĩra ĩrĩa rũhuho rũgeraga, o na kana ũrĩa mwana athondekagwo nda-inĩ ya nyina, ũguo noguo ũtangĩmenya wĩra wa Ngai, o we Mũũmbi wa indo ciothe.
6 Hlanyela inhlanyelo yakho ekuseni, kuthi ntambama uphumuze izandla zakho, ngoba kawukwazi okuzaphumelela, kumbe yilokhu loba yilokhuyana, langabe kokubili kuzalunga ngokufananayo.
Haanda mbeũ ciaku rũciinĩ, na hwaĩ-inĩ-rĩ, ndũkahurũkie moko maku, nĩgũkorwo ndũũĩ iria ikaagĩra, kana nĩ ici, kana nĩ icio ingĩ, kana hihi ikaagĩra o cierĩ.
7 Ukukhanya kumnandi, njalo kuhle emehlweni ukubona ilanga.
Ũtheri nĩ mwega, namo maitho nĩmakenagĩra kuona riũa.
8 Umuntu angaze aphile iminyaka emingaki, kayikholise yonke. Kodwa makakhumbule insuku zobumnyama, ngoba zizabe zizinengi. Konke okuzakuza kuyize.
Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ o na angĩgĩtũũra muoyo mĩaka mĩingĩ atĩa-rĩ, nĩamĩkenagĩre yothe. No nĩaririkanage matukũ ma nduma, tondũ magaakorwo marĩ maingĩ. Maũndũ mothe magooka nĩ ma tũhũ.
9 Jabula nsizwa usesemutsha, uvumele inhliziyo yakho ikuthokozise ensukwini zobutsha bakho. Landela izindlela zenhliziyo yakho lakho konke amehlo akho akubonayo, kodwa yazi ukuthi ngenxa yazo zonke lezizinto uNkulunkulu uzakumisa ekwahlulelweni.
Atĩrĩrĩ, wee mwanake ũyũ, kenagĩra ũnini waku, na ũreke ngoro yaku ĩgũkenagie matukũ-inĩ ma wĩthĩ waku. Thiiaga na mĩthiĩre ĩrĩa wĩyendeire na ngoro yaku, o na ĩrĩa yonagwo ĩrĩ mĩega nĩ maitho maku, no ũmenye atĩrĩ, harĩ maũndũ macio mothe, Ngai nĩagagũciirithia.
10 Ngakho-ke, susa ukukhathazeka enhliziyweni yakho ulahlele kude inhlupheko zomzimba wakho, ngoba ubutsha lamadlabuzane kuyize.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, eheria gwĩtanga ngoro-inĩ yaku, na weherie mathĩĩna mwĩrĩ-inĩ waku, tondũ wĩthĩ waku na hinya wa mwĩrĩ no cia tũhũ.
