Amahubo 37
1 ElikaDavida. Ungazikhathazi ngabantu ababi loba uhawukele labo abenza okungalunganga;
Dawid dwom. Nhaw wo ho, nnebɔneyɛfo nti; mma wʼani mmmere wɔn a wɔyɛ bɔne;
2 ngoba bazabuna masinyane njengotshani, njengezimila eziluhlaza bazakufa masinyane.
Wɔte sɛ sare, ɛrenkyɛ na ahyew, wɔte sɛ dua amono, ɛrenkyɛ na awu.
3 Themba kuThixo wenze okulungileyo; hlala elizweni ukholise amadlelo amahle.
Fa wo ho to Awurade so na yɛ papa. Tena asase no so na ma wʼani nka asomdwoe adidibea hɔ.
4 Zithokozise kuThixo Yena uzakupha izifiso zenhliziyo yakho.
Ma wʼani nnye wɔ Awurade mu na wama wo nea wo koma pɛ.
5 Nikela indlela zakho kuThixo; themba kuye, Yena uzakwenzela lokhu:
Fa wʼakwan hyɛ Awurade nsam; na fa wo ho to no so, na ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ:
6 Uzakwenza ukulunga kwakho kukhazimule njengentathakusa, ubuqotho balokho okulwelayo njengelanga lemini enkulu.
ɔbɛma wo treneeyɛ ahyerɛn sɛ adekyee, na wʼatɛntrenee ayɛ sɛ owigyinae.
7 Chuma phambi kukaThixo umlindele ngesineke; ungakhathazeki nxa abantu bephumelela ngezindlela zabo, nxa bephutshisa amaqhinga abo amabi.
Yɛ komm wɔ Awurade anim na tɔ wo bo ase twɛn no, nhaw wo ho wɔ wɔn a asi wɔn yiye ho efisɛ wɔnam bɔne akwan so.
8 Xwayana lokuzonda njalo ufulathele intukuthelo; ungakhathazeki, kukhokhelela ebubini kuphela.
Mma wo bo mmfuw na gyae abufuwhyew; nhaw wo ho, ekowie bɔne nko ara.
9 Ngoba abantu ababi bazasuswa, kodwa labo abathemba uThixo bazakudla ilifa lelizwe.
Wobetwa nnebɔneyɛfo agu, nanso wɔn a wɔn ani da Awurade so no wobenya asase no adi so.
10 Kuseyisikhatshana nje, ababi bazabe bengasekho; loba usubadinga kabasayikufunyanwa.
Ɛrenkyɛ, nnebɔneyɛfo bɛyera. Wɔbɛhwehwɛ wɔn, nanso wɔrenhu wɔn.
11 Kodwa abathobekileyo bazakudla ilifa lelizwe njalo bakholise ukuthula okukhulu.
Nanso ahobrɛasefo benya asase no adi so na wɔanya asomdwoe mmoroso.
12 Ababi baceba ukulimaza abalungileyo babagedlele amazinyo;
Amumɔyɛfo bɔ pɔw bɔne tia atreneefo na wɔtwɛre wɔn se gu wɔn so;
13 kodwa iNkosi iyabahleka ababi, ngoba iyazi ukuthi usuku lwabo luyeza.
nanso Awurade serew amumɔyɛfo, na onim sɛ wɔn nna abɛn.
14 Ababi bakhokha inkemba, badonsa idandili ngenhloso yokulimaza abahluphekayo labaswelayo, lokubulala labo abahamba ngokulunga.
Amumɔyɛfo twe afoa na wokuntun wɔn ta mu sɛ wobekum ahiafo ne mmɔborɔfo, sɛ wobekum wɔn a wɔn akwan teɛ.
15 Kodwa izinkemba zabo zizagwaza ezabo inhliziyo, lamadandili abo azakwephulwa.
Nanso wɔn afoa bɛwowɔ wɔn ankasa koma mu, na wɔn ta mu abubu.
16 Kungcono ingcosana leyo abalayo abalungileyo kulenotho yababi abanengi;
Kakra a atreneefo wɔ no som bo sen amumɔyɛfo bebree ahonya;
17 ngoba amandla ababi azaqedwa, kodwa uThixo uyabaxhasa abalungileyo.
efisɛ amumɔyɛfo ahoɔden bɛsa nanso Awurade bɛwowaw atreneefo.
18 Insuku zabangelasici ziyaziwa nguThixo, ilifa labo lizakuma lanini.
Awurade nim wɔn a wɔn ho nni asɛm no nna, na wɔn agyapade bɛtena hɔ daa.
19 Ngezikhathi zomonakalo abayikubuna; ngezikhathi zendlala bazasutha.
Ahohiahia bere mu wɔremmrɛ. Ɔkɔm bere mu wobenya ama abu so.
20 Kodwa ababi bazabhubha; izitha zikaThixo zinjengobuhle beganga, zizanyamalala, zinyamalale njengentuthu.
Nanso amumɔyɛfo bɛyera. Awurade atamfo bɛyɛ sɛ nwura mu nhwiren; wobetu ayera sɛ wusiw.
21 Ababi bayaboleka kodwa kababuyiseli, kodwa abalungileyo bayapha kakhulu;
Amumɔyɛfo pɛ bosea, na wontua, nanso ɔtreneeni de ahummɔbɔ ma;
22 labo uThixo ababusisayo bazakudla ilifa lelizwe; kodwa labo abathukayo bazasuswa.
Wɔn a Awurade ahyira wɔn no benya asase no adi so, na wobetwa wɔn a ɔdome wɔn no agu.
23 Nxa uThixo ethokoziswa yikuhamba komuntu, uyaqinisa izinyathelo zakhe;
Sɛ Awurade ani sɔ onipa akwan a, ɔma nʼanammɔntu si pi.
24 loba angakhubeka, kayikuwa, ngoba uThixo uyamsekela ngesandla sakhe.
Sɛ ohintiw a ɔrenhwe ase, efisɛ Awurade kura no wɔ ne nsam.
25 Ngangimutsha, manje sengiluphele, kodwa angizange ngibone abalungileyo bedelwa loba abantwababo becela isinkwa.
Na meyɛ aberante, na mprempren mabɔ akwakoraa, na minhuu ɔtreneeni a Awurade apa nʼakyi anaasɛ ne mma resrɛ aduan.
26 Bayaphana kokuphela njalo bayebolekana nje; abantwababo bazabusiswa.
Bere biara ɔyɛ adɔe, na ɔde fɛm kwa; na ne mma benya nhyira.
27 Phendukani ebubini lenze ukulunga lapho-ke lizahlala elizweni nini lanini.
Twe wo ho fi bɔne ho na yɛ papa na wobɛtena asase no so afebɔɔ.
28 Ngoba uThixo uthanda abalungileyo njalo kayikubadela abathembekileyo bakhe. Bazavikelwa kuze kube nini lanini kodwa inzalo yababi izalahlwa;
Efisɛ, Awurade pɛ nea ɛteɛ, na ɔrennyaw ne nkurɔfo anokwafo no. Wobenya bammɔ daa nyinaa. Nanso amumɔyɛfo asefo de, wobetwa wɔn agu.
29 abalungileyo bazazuza ilifa lelizwe bahlale kulo lanini.
Atreneefo benya asase no adi so na wɔatena so afebɔɔ.
30 Umlomo womuntu olungileyo ukhuluma ukuhlakanipha, lolimi lwakhe lukhuluma okuqondileyo.
Ɔtreneeni ano ka nyansasɛm, na ne tɛkrɛma ka nea ɛteɛ.
31 Umthetho kaNkulunkulu wakhe usenhliziyweni yakhe; inyawo zakhe kazitsheleli.
Ne Nyankopɔn mmara wɔ ne koma mu; wɔn anan nwatiri.
32 Ababi bacathamela abalungileyo befuna impilo yabo qobo lwayo;
Amumɔyɛfo tetɛw atreneefo hwehwɛ sɛ wobekum wɔn,
33 kodwa uThixo kayikubayekela bazenzele abakuthandayo kubo kumbe balahlwe licala nxa bethonisiswa.
nanso Awurade nnyaa wɔn mma wɔn, na ɔremma wommu wɔn kumfɔ wɔ asennii.
34 Lindelani uThixo ligcine indlela yakhe. Uzaliphakamisa lilithathe ilifa lelizwe; lizakubona lokhu nxa ababi sebesusiwe.
Montwɛn Awurade na monhwɛ nʼakwan. Ɔbɛma mo so na moanya asase no adi so; sɛ wotwitwa amumɔyɛfo no gu a, mubehu.
35 Sengike ngabona umuntu omubi olesihluku kulokubhadala ehluma njengesihlahla, esikhula kuhle emhlabathini waso wemvelo,
Mahu omumɔyɛfo a ɔyɛ basabasa sɛ ɔredi yiye sɛ dua amono a esi asase pa so,
36 kodwa waphanga wafa kabe esabakhona; ngathi loba sengimdinga ngamswela.
nanso ankyɛ na nʼawiei bae a wonhu no bio; mehwehwɛɛ no, nanso manhu no.
37 Nanzelela abangelecala, qaphela abaqotho. Likhona ikusasa kumuntu wokuthula.
Susuw nea ɔyɛ pɛ ho, na hwɛ nea ɔteɛ; na asomdwoe nipa benya asetena pa daakye.
38 Kodwa zonke izoni zizabhujiswa; ikusasa lezigangi lizasuswa.
Nanso wɔbɛsɛe nnebɔneyɛfo nyinaa; na wɔbɛtɔre wɔn asefo ase.
39 Ukusindiswa kwabalungileyo kuvela kuThixo; uyinqaba yabo ngesikhathi sokuhlupheka.
Atreneefo nkwagye fi Awurade ɔne wɔn aban wɔ amanehunu bere mu.
40 UThixo uyabasiza abakhulule; abakhulule kwababi abasindise, ngoba baphephela kuye.
Awurade boa wɔn na ogye wɔn; oyi wɔn fi amumɔyɛfo nsam, na ogye wɔn nkwa, efisɛ wohintaw wɔ ne mu.
