Izaga 3
1 Ndodana yami, ungakhohlwa imfundiso yami, kodwa ugcine imilayo yami enhliziyweni yakho,
Mwanakomana wangu, usakanganwa kudzidzisa kwangu, asi uchengete mirayiro yangu mumwoyo mako,
2 ngoba izakwandisa impilo yakho okweminyaka eminengi, ikuphe ukuthula.
nokuti zvichawedzera makore mazhinji kuupenyu hwako, uye nokubudirira.
3 Akungasuki kuwe loba nini uthando lokuthembeka; kubophele entanyeni yakho, ukubhale egwalibeni lenhliziyo yakho.
Rudo nokutendeka ngazvirege kukusiya; uzvisungirire pamutsipa wako, zvinyore pahwendefa romwoyo wako.
4 Ngalokho uzathandeka uzuze ibizo elihle emehlweni kaNkulunkulu laphambi kwabantu.
Ipapo uchawana nyasha nezita rakanaka pamberi paMwari navanhu.
5 Themba kuThixo ngenhliziyo yakho yonke, ungathembi ekuzwisiseni kwakho;
Vimba naJehovha nomwoyo wako wose urege kuzendamira panjere dzako;
6 mvume kuzozonke izindlela zakho, yena uzaqondisa zonke izindlela zakho.
munzira dzako dzose umutungamidze, uye acharuramisa nzira dzako.
7 Ungazenzi ohlakaniphileyo ngokubona kwakho; yesaba uThixo uxwaye okubi.
Usazviita munhu akachenjera pamaonero ako; itya Jehovha uvenge zvakaipa.
8 Lokho kuzawuphilisa umzimba wakho kuwaqinise lamathambo akho.
Izvi zvichava utano pamuviri wako uye nokusimbiswa kwamapfupa ako.
9 Dumisa uThixo ngenotho yakho; ngezithelo zakho zokuqala zonke;
Kudza Jehovha nepfuma yako, zvokutanga zvezvirimwa zvako;
10 ngalokho iziphala zakho zizagcwala ziphuphume, lezimbiza zakho zewayini zize zichitheke ngewayini elitsha.
ipapo matura ako achazadzwa kusvikira pakufashukira, uye makate ako achazara kusvika pamusoro newaini itsva.
11 Ndodana yami, ungeyisi ukulaya kukaThixo njalo ungacaphukeli ukukhuza kwakhe,
Mwanakomana wangu, usazvidza kuranga kwaJehovha, uye usatsamwira kutsiura kwake,
12 ngoba uThixo ulaya labo abathandayo, njengoyise elaya indodana yakhe ayithandayo.
nokuti Jehovha anoranga avo vaanoda, sababa nomwanakomana wavanofarira.
13 Ubusisiwe umuntu ozuza ukuhlakanipha, umuntu ozuza ukuqedisisa,
Akaropafadzwa munhu anowana uchenjeri, munhu anowana kunzwisisa,
14 ngoba khona kulenzuzo eyedlula isiliva lenzuzo eyedlula igolide.
nokuti hwakanyanya kunaka kupfuura sirivha, uye hunopfumisa kupfuura goridhe.
15 Kuligugu elidlula amarubhi; kakukho okuloyisayo okungalinganiswa lakho.
Hunokosha kupfuura marubhi; zvose zvaunoshuva hazvingafananidzwi nahwo.
16 Impilo ende isesandleni sakho sokunene; kwesokhohlo kulenotho lodumo.
Mazuva mazhinji oupenyu ari muruoko rwahwo rworudyi; muruboshwe rwahwo mune upfumi nokukudzwa.
17 Izindlela zakhe zilokuthokoza, lemikhondo yakhe ilokuthula.
Nzira dzahwo dzinofadza, uye makwara ahwo ose rugare.
18 Kuyisihlahla sokuphila kulabo abakwamukelayo; labo abakuphathayo bazabusiswa.
Ndihwo muti woupenyu kuna vose vanohumbundikira; vose vanohubata vacharopafadzwa.
19 Ngokuhlakanipha uThixo wabeka izisekelo zomhlaba, ngokuqedisisa wamisa izulu endaweni yalo;
Nouchenjeri Jehovha akateya nheyo dzenyika, nokunzwisisa akaisa matenga munzvimbo dzawo;
20 ngolwazi lwakhe inlwandle zehlukaniswa, lamayezi athontisa amazolo.
noruzivo rwake mvura dzakadzika dzakapatsanurwa, uye makore akadonhedza dova.
21 Ndodana yami, gogosa ingqondo ehlela ngolwazi, ungayekeli kukucatshele;
Mwanakomana wangu, chengetedza kutonga kwakanaka nokungwara, usazvirega zvichibva pameso ako;
22 kuzakuba yikuphila kuwe, kube ngumceciso omuhle entanyeni yakho.
zvichava upenyu kwauri, chishongo chakanaka pamutsipa wako.
23 Lapho-ke uzahamba ngendlela evikelweyo unyawo lwakho lungakhubeki;
Ipapo uchafamba panzira yako murugare, uye rutsoka rwako harungagumburwi;
24 nxa ulala kawuyikwesaba; uzalala ubuthongo obumnandi.
paunovata pasi, haungatyi; paunovata pasi, hope dzako dzichava dzakanaka.
25 Ungabi lovalo nxa ujunywa ngumonakalo kumbe yikubhidlika lokho okwehlela ababi,
Usatya zvako dambudziko rinovhundutsa kana kuparadza kunokunda vakaipa,
26 ngoba uThixo uzakuba lithemba lakho avikele unyawo lwakho emjibileni.
nokuti Jehovha achava chivimbo chako uye achachengeta rutsoka rwako kuti rurege kubatwa.
27 Ungaze wala ukusiza labo abadinga uncedo, wena ulakho ongabasiza ngakho.
Usarega kuitira zvakanaka kuno uyo akafanirwa nazvo, kana zviri musimba rako kuzviita.
28 Ungabokuthi kumakhelwane wakho: “Ubobuya kwesinye isikhathi; ngizakunika kusasa” wena ulalo lololutho.
Usati kumuvakidzani wako, “Ugodzoka imwe nguva; ndichazokupa mangwana,” iwe uchitova nazvo pauri.
29 Ungacebi okubi ngomakhelwane wakho, ohlezi lawe ekwethemba.
Usaronga kuitira muvakidzani wako zvakaipa, anogara nechivimbo pedyo newe.
30 Ungaxabani lomuntu kungelasizatho yena engakonelanga ngalutho.
Usapomera munhu mhosva pasina chikonzero, iye asina zvaakutadzira.
31 Ungamhawukeli umuntu othanda ukulwa loba nje ufise lakuphi ukwenza kwakhe,
Usachiva munhu anoita zvinhu nechisimba, kana kusarudza ipi zvayo yenzira dzake,
32 ngoba uThixo uyamenyanya umuntu oxhwalileyo kodwa oqotho umbeka ekhwapheni lakhe.
nokuti Jehovha anovenga munhu akatsauka, asi anoudza akarurama zvaanoda kuita.
33 Isiqalekiso sikaThixo sehlela endlini yababi, kodwa uyayibusisa indlu yabalungileyo.
Kutuka kwaJehovha kuri paimba yeakaipa, asi anoropafadza musha womunhu akarurama.
34 Uyabahleka usulu abayizideleli ezizithembayo, kodwa abe lomusa kwabathobekileyo.
Anoseka vaseki vanozvikudza, asi anoitira nyasha vanozvininipisa.
35 Abahlakaniphileyo baphiwa udumo kodwa abayiziwula ubathela ihlazo.
Vakachenjera vanowana kukudzwa, asi mapenzi anozviwanira kunyadziswa.
