1 Amazwi enkosi uLemuweli, amazwi enhlakanipho awafundiswa ngunina:
Ĩno nĩyo mĩario ya Mũthamaki Lemueli: nĩ ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩrĩa aarutirwo nĩ nyina:
2 Oh, ndodana yami! Oh ndodana yethumbu lami! Oh, ndodana yezifungo zami,
“Atĩrĩrĩ, wee mũrũ wakwa, ngũkwĩra atĩa, o wee mwana wa nda yakwa, ngũkwĩra atĩa o wee mwana wa mĩĩhĩtwa yakwa,
3 ungadlalisi amandla akho ebafazini, izifutho zakho kulabo abadiliza amakhosi.
atĩrĩ, ndũkanaitange hinya waku na andũ-a-nja, kana ũhe ũhoti waku acio manangaga athamaki.
4 Kakusikho kwamakhosi, bakithi Lemuweli kakusikho kwamakhosi ukunatha iwayini, kakusikho kwababusi ukunxwanela utshwala,
“Atĩrĩrĩ, wee Lemueli, athamaki matiagĩrĩirwo nĩkũnyua ndibei, ti mũtugo wa athamaki kũnyua ndibei, anene matiagĩrĩirwo nĩ kwĩrirĩria njoohi,
5 funa badakwe bakhohlwe izimiso zomthetho, behluleke ukumisela kuhle abahluphekayo amalungelo abo.
nĩgeetha matikanyue mariganĩrwo nĩ ũrĩa watho uugaga, nao magithie arĩa othe ahinyĩrĩrie kĩhooto kĩao.
6 Phana utshwala kulabo abavele sebezifele, iwayini kulabo abalosizi olukhulu;
Heaga arĩa marathira njoohi, na ndibei kũrĩ arĩa marĩ na ruo rũnene rwa ngoro;
7 kabanathe bakhohlwe ubuyanga babo bakhohlwe nya usizi lwabo.
reke manyue mariganĩrwo nĩ ũthĩĩni wao, na matige gũcooka kũririkana kĩeha kĩao.
8 Bamele labo abehlulekayo ukuzikhulumela, uwamele amalungelo alabo abangelalutho.
“Arĩrĩria arĩa matangĩhota kwĩyarĩrĩria, warĩrĩrie kĩhooto kĩa arĩa othe anyamaarĩku.
9 Khuluma njalo wahlulele ngokulunga; alwele amalungelo abayanga labaswelayo.
Maarĩrĩrie, na ũmatuĩre ciira na kĩhooto; rũĩrĩra kĩhooto kĩa arĩa athĩĩni na arĩa abatari.”
10 Ngubani na ongathola umfazi olesimilo? Uligugu elidlula kakhulu amatshe amahle.
Mũtumia ngatha-rĩ, angĩoneka kũ? Nĩgũkorwo thogora wake nĩũkĩrĩte mũno ũrĩa wa ruru iria ndune.
11 Indoda yakhe iyamthemba ngokupheleleyo njalo kayisweli lutho oluqakathekileyo.
Mũthuuri wake nĩamwĩhokete biũ, na ndarĩ kĩndũ kĩa bata angĩaga.
12 Uyenzela okuhle, hatshi okubi, empilweni yakhe yonke.
Mũtumia ũcio, matukũ mothe ma muoyo wake, no maũndũ mega ekaga mũthuuriwe, na ndangĩmwĩka ũũru.
13 Uyakhetha kuhle iwulu lesikusha akweluke kuhle ngezandla ezikhutheleyo.
Ethaga guoya wa ngʼondu na ndigi cia ũguta, agacirutĩra wĩra na kĩyo, na moko make.
14 Unjengemikhumbi yabathengisi, eletha ukudla okuvela kude.
Ahaana ta marikabu cia wonjoria, tondũ athũgũraga irio ciake kuuma kũraya.
15 Uvuka ekuseni kusesemnyama; alungisele abomuzi wakhe ukudla abele lezincekukazi zakhe.
Okĩraga rũciinĩ kũrĩ o na nduma; akahe andũ a nyũmba yake irio, na akagaĩra ndungata ciake cia airĩtu mawĩra mao.
16 Uyayihlolisisa insimu mandulo kokuyithenga; ngalokho akuzuzayo uyahlanyela isivini sakhe.
Ecũũranagia ũhoro wa mũgũnda mũna, akaũgũra; kuumana na ũthũkũmi wake, ahaandaga mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ.
17 Uwubamba ngokukhuthala umsebenzi wakhe; aqinise izingalo zakhe emsebenzini.
Ehotoragĩra wĩra wake erutanĩirie; moko make marĩ hinya wa kwĩrutĩra wĩra.
18 Uyananzelela ukuthi ukuthengisa kwakhe kulenzuzo, lokuthi isibane sakhe kasicimi ebusuku.
Nĩatigagĩrĩra atĩ wonjoria wake nĩũrĩ na uumithio, naguo tawa wake ũraaraga ũgĩakana.
19 Uphatha uluthi lokuphotha ngesandla sakhe abesebamba ngeminwe yakhe isigudugudu sokweluka.
Anyiitaga mũtĩ wa kuogotha ndigi na guoko, nakĩo gĩcũni kĩa ndigi agakĩnyiitĩrĩra na ciara ciake.
20 Welulela izandla zakhe kubayanga njalo ulezandla ezilula kwabaswelayo.
Nĩataanahagĩra andũ arĩa athĩĩni, nao arĩa abatari akamatambũrũkĩria moko make.
21 Lapho kukhithika ungqwaqwane, kalakwesaba ngabendlu yakhe; ngoba bonke bagqoke ezibomvu.
Rĩrĩa tharunji yagũa-rĩ, we ndamakaga atĩ nĩĩgũthĩĩnia andũ a nyũmba yake; nĩgũkorwo othe nĩahumbe nguo cia rangi mũtune.
22 Wendlala amalembu ombheda wakhe; agqoke ilineni elihle lezigqoko eziyibubende.
Nĩatumaga indo cia kwara ũrĩrĩ wake; nake ehumbaga nguo cia gatani ĩrĩa njega, na cia rangi wa ndathi.
23 Indoda yakhe iyahlonitshwa enkundleni lapho efika ihlale khona ndawonye labadala belizwe.
Mũthuuri wake nĩaheagwo gĩtĩĩo kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra inene, harĩa aikaraga marĩ na athuuri a bũrũri.
24 Uthunga izigqoko zelineni azithengise, abathengi bemigaxo bayizuza kuye.
Mũtumia ũcio nĩatumaga nguo cia gatani agaciendia, na agatwaragĩra onjoria mĩcibi.
25 Wembethe amandla lesithunzi; uyahleka loba kusiza insuku ezimbi.
Hinya na ũtĩĩku nĩcio nguo iria ehumbaga; nĩakenaga ategwĩtigĩra matukũ marĩa magooka.
26 Ukhuluma ngenhlakanipho, lezeluleko eziqondileyo zisolimini lwakhe.
Aaragia ciugo cia ũũgĩ, naruo rũrĩmĩ rwake rũrutanaga maũndũ ma ũtugi.
27 Unqinekela ezomuzi wakhe njalo kadli isinkwa sobuvila.
Nĩarũmbũyagia maũndũ ma nyũmba yake, na ndarĩĩaga irio atanogeire.
28 Abantwabakhe bayambonga bathi ubusisiwe; lendoda yakhe layo iyamdumisa ithi,
Ciana ciake ciarahũkaga, cikoiga arorathimwo; o nake mũthuuri wake nĩamũgaathagĩrĩria, akamwĩra atĩrĩ:
29 “Banengi abafazi abenza izimangaliso zobuhle, kodwa wena uyabedlula bonke.”
“Andũ-a-nja aingĩ manatuĩka ngatha, no wee nĩũmakĩrĩte othe.”
30 Ukubukeka kuyakhohlisa, lobuhle buyaphela; kodwa umfazi owesaba uThixo kadunyiswe.
Ngoga nĩ cia kũheenania, naguo ũthaka nĩ wa tũhũ; no mũtumia ũrĩa mwĩtigĩri Jehova nĩ wa kũgaathĩrĩrio.
31 Kaphiwe umvuzo wobuhle abenzayo, imisebenzi yakhe imlethele udumo enkundleni.
Mũrĩhei mũcaara wa wĩra ũrĩa arutĩte, naguo wĩra wake ũrekwo ũmũgaathĩrĩrie kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra rĩrĩa inene.
