Izaga 19
1 Ungcono umyanga ohamba ngobuqotho kulesiwula esilezindebe ezingcolileyo.
ʻOku lelei lahi hake ʻae tangata ʻoku masiva kae ʻalu ʻi heʻene angatonu, ʻiate ia ʻoku kovi hono loungutu, pea ʻoku vale.
2 Kakulunganga ukutshiseka kodwa ungelalwazi, loba ukuwalazela uze ulahlekelwe yindlela.
Ko eni foki, ʻoku ʻikai lelei ki he laumālie ke taʻepoto: pea ko ia ʻoku ʻoho veʻe vave ʻoku angahala ia.
3 Ubuwula bomuntu budiliza impilo yakhe, ikanti inhliziyo yakhe ithukuthelela uThixo.
Ko e meʻa ʻi he vale ʻoe tangata ʻoku pikopiko ai hono hala: pea ʻoku lāunga ai hono loto kia Sihova.
4 Inotho iletha abangane abanengi, kodwa umyanga ufulathelwa ngumngane wakhe weduze.
ʻOku fakatokolahi ʻae kaumeʻa ʻe he koloa: ka ʻoku vāmamaʻo ʻae masiva mo hono kaungāʻapi.
5 Umfakazi wamanga uthola isijeziso, lalowo ohutshuza amanga kayikuphunyuka.
ʻE ʻikai tuku ke taʻetautea ʻae fakamoʻoni loi, pea ʻe ʻikai hao ia ʻaia ʻoku faʻa lea ʻaki ʻae loi.
6 Banengi abazincengela ukuthandwa ngumbusi, njalo wonke umuntu ngumngane walowo ophanayo.
ʻE kole tōtōaki ʻe he tokolahi ke ʻofa mai ʻae houʻeiki: pea ʻoku kaumeʻa ʻae kakai kotoa pē mo ia ʻoku faʻa foaki.
7 Umyanga uhlanyukelwa yizihlobo zakhe zonke, pho abangane bakhe bona bamnina kangakanani! Lanxa ebancenga kangakanani, ngeke esabathola.
ʻOku fehiʻa ki he masiva ʻa hono tokoua kotoa pē: kae huanoa ʻae fakamōmoa ʻa hono kāinga pe kiate ia! ʻOku ne tangi toupili kiate kinautolu, ka ʻoku nau taʻetokangaʻi.
8 Lowo ozuze ukuhlakanipha uthanda umphefumulo wakhe; lowo ogogosa ukuzwisisa uyaphumelela.
Ko ia ʻoku maʻu ʻae poto ʻoku ʻofa ia ki hono laumālie ʻoʻona: pea ko ia ʻoku tauhi ʻae faʻa ʻilo ʻe maʻu ʻe ia ʻae lelei.
9 Umfakazi wamanga uthola isijeziso, njalo lowo ohutshuza amanga uzabhubha.
ʻE ʻikai tuku ke taʻetautea ʻae fakamoʻoni loi, pea ʻe fakaʻauha ia ʻaia ʻoku faʻa lea ʻaki ʻae loi.
10 Kakusifanelanga isiwula ukuthi sihlale enothweni kubi kangakanani ukuthi isigqili sibuse amakhosana.
ʻOku ʻikai ngali mo e vale ʻae fiefia; kae huanoa hono taʻengali ʻoe pule ʻae tamaioʻeiki ki he houʻeiki.
11 Ukuhlakanipha komuntu kumupha isineke; kumupha udumo ukunganaki ukuqalwa.
ʻOku fakatuotuai ʻae ʻita ʻe he fakapotopoto ʻae tangata: pea ko e meʻa ʻoku ne ongoongolelei ai ko ʻene fakamolemole ha angahala.
12 Ukuthukuthela kwenkosi kunjengokubhonga kwesilwane, kodwa ukuthandwa yiyo kunjengamazolo etshanini.
ʻOku tatau ʻae tuputāmaki ʻoe tuʻi mo e ngungulu ʻae laione; ka ko ʻene loto lelei ʻoku hangē ko e hahau ki he mohuku.
13 Indodana eyisiwula iyamchitha uyise, lomfazi olenkani unjengamanzi athonta ephahleni njalonje.
Ko e foha vale ko e fakamamahiʻi ia ʻo ʻene tamai: pea ko e faʻa kē ʻae fefine ʻoku mali ʻoku tatau mo e hafu maʻuaipē ʻae vai.
14 Izindlu lenotho yilifa elizuzwa ebazalini, kodwa umfazi ozwisisayo uvela kuThixo.
Ko e fale mo e koloa ko e tofiʻa ia ʻokinautolu kuo hoko ko e tamai: pea ko e fefine alafia ʻoku anga fakapotopoto ʻoku meia Sihova ia.
15 Ubuvila buletha ubuthongo obukhulu, njalo umuntu owehluleka ukuzenwaya uyalamba.
ʻOku hoko ʻae mohe maʻu ʻi he fakapikopiko; pea ʻe fakamamahi ʻaki ʻae fiekaia ʻae laumālie ʻoku fakapikopiko.
16 Lowo olalela izeluleko uvikela impilo yakhe, kodwa lowo ozedelelayo uzakufa.
Ko ia ʻoku tauhi ʻae fekau ʻoku ne tauhi ki hono laumālie ʻoʻona: ka ko ia ʻoku taʻetokanga ki hono ngaahi hala ʻe mate ia.
17 Olomusa kubayanga upha uThixo, uzamupha umvuzo ngalokho akwenzayo.
Ko ia ʻoku manavaʻofa ki he masiva ʻoku foaki ʻe ia kia Sihova: pea ko ia kuo ne foaki te ne toe totongi kiate ia.
18 Qondisa indodana yakho, ngoba lokho kuzayisiza; ungabi lengxenye yokuyibulala.
Tautea ho foha ʻi he lolotonga ʻoku ai ha ʻamanaki lelei kiate ia, pea ʻoua naʻa ke mamae koeʻuhi ko ʻene tangi.
19 Umuntu ololaka oluphuphumayo luyamtshayisa, ungamlamulela, usuzahlala umlamulela njalo.
ʻE hoko ʻae tautea ki he tangata ʻoku faʻa ʻita: he kapau te ke langomakiʻi ia, te ke toe fiu pe ʻi hono fai.
20 Lalela ukucetshiswa, wamukele ukuqondiswa, ngoba ekucineni uzahlakanipha.
Fanongo ki he tala fakapoto, pea ke maʻu ʻae akonaki, koeʻuhi ke ke poto ai ʻi ho ngataʻanga.
21 Inhliziyo yomuntu igcwele amacebo amanengi, kodwa yisimiso sikaThixo esimayo.
ʻOku lahi ʻae filioʻi ʻi he loto ʻoe tangata; ka e tuʻumaʻu pē ʻae tuʻutuʻuni ʻa Sihova.
22 Umuntu uloyisa uthando olungaqamukiyo; kungcono ukuba ngumyanga kulokuba lamanga.
ʻOku holi ʻae tangata ke ne angalelei: pea ʻoku lelei hake ʻae tangata masiva ʻi he tangata ʻoku loi.
23 Ukumesaba uThixo kuholela ekuphileni: olakho uhlala esuthisekile, engathintwa yizinhlupheko.
ʻOku hoko ki he moʻui ʻae manavahē kia Sihova: pea ʻe nofo fiemālie ʻaia ʻoku ne maʻu ia; ʻe ʻikai ʻaʻahi kiate ia ha kovi.
24 Ivilavoxo litshonisa isandla salo emganwini, liyehluleke ukubuyisa isandla emlonyeni lidle.
ʻOku fakafufū ʻe he tangata fakapikopiko ʻa hono nima ki hono fatafata, pea ʻoku ʻikai te ne toe faʻa ʻomi ia ki hono ngutu.
25 Thela uswazi isideleli, abathobekileyo bazafunda ukuhlakanipha; khuza umuntu oqedisisayo, uzazuza ulwazi.
Teʻia ʻaia ʻoku manuki, pea ʻe tokanga ai ʻae taʻepoto: pea valokiʻi ia ʻoku faʻa fakakaukau, pea te ne ʻilo ai ʻae poto.
26 Lowo ontshontshela uyise, axotshe unina yindodana ethelela inhloni lehlazo.
Ko ia ʻoku ne fakamasivaʻi ʻa ʻene tamai, pea kapusi atu ʻa ʻene faʻē, ko e foha ia ʻoku tupu ai ʻae mā, pea ʻoku haʻu mo ia ʻae manuki.
27 Nxa uyekela ukulandela izeluleko, ndodana yami, uzalahleka utshiye amazwi okwazi.
ʻE hoku foha, ke tukuā, pea ʻoua naʻa ke fanongo ki he akonaki ʻaia, ʻoku tupu ai ʻae hē mei he ngaahi lea ʻae poto.
28 Umfakazi oxhwalileyo uyawudelela umthetho, lomlomo womubi uminza ububi.
ʻOku manukiʻi ʻae fakamaau ʻe he fakamoʻoni angakovi: pea ʻoku kai ʻae kovi ʻe he ngutu ʻoe angahala.
29 Izijeziso zilungiselwe izideleli, loswazi ngolwemihlane yeziwula.
ʻOku talifaki ʻae ngaahi malaʻia ki he kau manuki, mo e ngaahi tā ki he tuʻa ʻoe kakai vale.
