< Izaga 7 >
1 Ndodana yami, agcine amazwi ami ulondoloze imilayo yami ngaphakathi kwakho.
Me ba, fa me nsɛm sie na kora mʼahyɛdeɛ wɔ wo mu.
2 Gcina imilayo yami ukuze uphile; ulinde imfundiso yami njengegugu lakho elikhulu.
Di mʼahyɛdeɛ so na wobɛnya nkwa; bɔ me nkyerɛkyerɛ ho ban sɛ deɛ wodɔ noɔ.
3 Ibophele eminweni yakho; uyilobe enhliziyweni yakho.
Kyekyere bɔ wo nsateaa ho; twerɛ no yie gu wʼakoma ɛpono so.
4 Tshela ukuhlakanipha uthi, “Ungudadewethu wena,” uthi ukuqedisisa kuyisihlobo sakho;
Ka kyerɛ nyansa sɛ, “Wo yɛ me nuabaa,” na frɛ nteaseɛ wo busuani;
5 lezizinto zizakuvikela emfazini oyisifebe, lakumkakho ongelambeko ngamazwi akhe adukisayo.
Wɔbɛtwe wo afiri ɔbaawaresɛefoɔ ho, afiri ɔbaawarefoɔ sansani nsɛmmɔdɛ ho.
6 Ngema ewindini lendlu yami ngalunguza ngesikhala.
Me fie mpomma ano mede mʼani faa ntokua mu.
7 Ngabona phakathi kwabayizithutha, ngananzelela phakathi kwamajaha ngabona ijaha elingelangqondo.
Mehunuu wɔ ntetekwaafoɔ mu, mehyɛɛ mmeranteɛ no mu baako nso, ɔbabunu a ɔnni adwene.
8 Lalisehla ngomgwaqo liseduze lejiko, liqonda endlini yowesifazane
Na ɔnam borɔno a ɛbɛn ɔbaa no fie so a nʼani kyerɛ ɔbaa no fie
9 ntambama sekunqunda amehlo, umnyama wobusuku usujiya.
ɛberɛ a ɔnwunu redwoɔ, na animu rebiribiri no.
10 Khonokho nje kwaqhamuka owesifazane elihlangabeza egqoke okwesifebe ngoba eqophile.
Afei ɔbaa bi firi bɛhyiaa no a wasiesie ne ho sɛ odwamanfoɔ a nnaadaa wɔ nʼakomam.
11 (Umfazi lowo, ngumuntu womsindo uyisiqholo, inyawo zakhe kazihlali phansi;
(Ɔyɛ hyirenn na hwee mfa ne ho, ɔntena efie koraa;
12 khathesi nangu emgwaqweni, njalo nangu enkundleni, utshobatshoba izindawana zonke.)
ɛnnɛ wɔhunu no mmɔntene so, ɔkyena na ɔte adwaberem, ɔtetɛ wɔ mmantwea mmantwea.)
13 Wafika waligona lelijaha walanga wakhuluma engelanhloni wathi:
Ɔsɔɔ ne mu fee nʼano wamfɛre, na ɔkaa sɛ,
14 “Ngenzile umnikelo wobudlelwano ngekhaya; lamuhla ngizigcwalisile izifungo zami.
“Mewɔ ayɔnkofa ayɛyɛdeɛ wɔ efie; ɛnnɛ madi me bɔhyɛ so.
15 Yikho ngilapha ukukuhlangabeza; sengikudinge ngaze ngakuthola!
Enti mebaeɛ sɛ merebɛhyia wo; mehwehwɛɛ wo na mahunu wo!
16 Sengiwendlele umbheda wami ngamalineni eGibhithe awemibalabala.
Mato me mpa mede nwera a wɔahyɛ no aduro a ɛfiri Misraim.
17 Sengiwuqholile umbheda wami ngemure, ngenhlaba langesinamoni.
Mede nnuhwam apete me mpa so: kurobo, pɛperɛ ne sinamon.
18 Woza sizitike ngothando kuze kuse; kasizijabulise ngothando!
Bra, ma yɛmfa ɔdɔ mmɔ ɔdɔ mu nkɔsi anɔpa;
19 Indoda yami kayikho ekhaya; ihambile iye khatshana.
Me kunu nni efie; watu kwan na ɔbɛkyɛre.
20 Ithwele isikhwama sayo sigcwele imali, ngakho kayibuyi kuze kube phakathi kwenyanga.”
Ɔde sika a ɛdɔɔso hyɛɛ ne sikabɔtɔ ma na ɔremma kɔsi ɔsrane no korokumatwa berɛ mu.”
21 Ngamazwi akhe amnandi waledukisa ijaha lelo; walihuga ijaha lelo ngolimi olumnandi.
Ɔde akorɔkorɔ bɔɔ no asɔn; ɔde nnaadaa nyaa no ne no daeɛ.
22 Khonokho nje lahle lamlandela njengenkabi idonselwa ukuyabulawa, njengomziki uzingenisa emjibileni,
Ɔdii nʼakyi prɛko pɛ te sɛ nantwie a ɔrekɔ akumiiɛ, anaa ɔwansane a ɔde ne tiri rekɔhyɛ hankrafidie mu
23 umtshoko uze uyehlaba isibindi, njengenyoni ithothela ngaphansi kwesifu, ingaboni ukuthi isizingenise ekufeni.
kɔsi sɛ bɛmma bɛhwire ne brɛboɔ mu, te sɛ anomaa a ɔrekɔtɔ anomaa afidie mu na ɔnnim sɛ ɔbɛhwere ne nkwa.
24 Ngakho-ke madodana ami, ngilalelani; zwanini lokhu engikutshoyo.
Na afei, me mma, montie me; monyɛ aso mma deɛ meka.
25 Lingayivumeli inhliziyo ikhangwe yizindlela zakhe, langabe iphumputhekele emikhubeni yakhe.
Mommma mo akoma mpatere nkɔ ne so na mommane mfa nʼakwan so.
26 Banengi labo asebadilizile; izinkubela zakhe zilucaca olwesabekayo.
Bebree na wɔnam ne so ahwehwe ase; wɔn a wakum wɔn dɔɔso pa ara.
27 Indlu yakhe ingumgudu oya engcwabeni, iholela phansi ezindongeni zokufa. (Sheol )
Ne fie yɛ ɛda kwantempɔn a ɛkɔ owuo mpia mu. (Sheol )
