1 Wasephendula uElifazi umThemani wathi:
Awo Erifaazi Omutemani n’addamu n’ayogera nti,
2 Ohlakaniphileyo angaphendula yini ulwazi olungumoya, agcwalise isisu sakhe ngomoya wempumalanga?
“Omuntu ow’amagezi yandizzeemu n’amagezi agataliimu, oba n’ajjuza olubuto lwe embuyaga ez’ebuvanjuba?
3 Aphikise ngamazwi angasizi lutho, langenkulumo ezingelanzuzo yini?
Yandiwakanye n’ebigambo ebitaliiko kye bigasa, oba okwogera ebigambo ebitalina kye bikola?
4 Yebo, wena uyachitha ukwesaba, uvimbela umkhuleko phambi kukaNkulunkulu.
Naye onyooma Katonda n’oziyiza okwewaayo eri Katonda.
5 Ngoba umlomo wakho ufundisa ububi bakho, ukhethe ulimi lwamaqili.
Kubanga obutali butuukirivu bwo bwe buyigiriza akamwa ko, era olonzeewo okukozesa olulimi lw’abalimba.
6 Umlomo wakho uyakulahla, kayisimi; yebo, indebe zakho ziyafakaza ngawe.
Akamwa ko kennyini ke kakusalira omusango si nze, emimwa gyo gyennyini gye gikulumiriza.
7 Ungumuntu wokuqala owazalwayo yini? Kumbe wazalwa mandulo kwamaqaqa yini?
“Gwe wasooka abantu bonna okuzaalibwa? Oba ggwe wazaalibwa ensozi nga tezinnabaawo?
8 Uzwile yini icebo langasese likaNkulunkulu? Kumbe uzigodlele inhlakanipho yini?
Ofaayo okuwuliriza okuteesa kwa Katonda? Olowooza gwe mugezi wekka?
9 Kuyini okwaziyo esingakwaziyo? Kuyini okuqedisisayo okungekho kithi?
Kiki ky’omanyi kye tutamanyi? Kubikkulirwa ki kw’olina ffe kwe tutalina?
10 Kukhona phakathi kwethu lempunga lekhehla, omdala ngensuku kuloyihlo.
Ab’envi abakaddiye bali ku ludda lwaffe, abasajja abakulu n’okusinga kitaawo.
11 Zincinyane yini kuwe induduzo zikaNkulunkulu, lelizwi elikhulunywa kuhle lawe?
Katonda by’akugambye ebikuzzaamu amaanyi bitono nnyo tebikumala, ebigambo ebikubuuliddwa mu bukkakkamu?
12 Kungani inhliziyo yakho ikumukisa? Njalo kungani amehlo akho ephayiza,
Lwaki omutima gwo gukubuzizza, amaaso go ne gatemereza
13 ukuthi uphendule umoya wakho umelane loNkulunkulu, ukhuphe amazwi anje emlonyeni wakho?
n’olyoka ofuka obusungu bwo eri Katonda, n’ofukumula ebigambo bwe bityo okuva mu kamwa ko?
14 Umuntu uyini ukuthi abe ngohlambulukileyo, lozelwe ngowesifazana ukuthi abe ngolungileyo?
“Omuntu ye ani, alyoke abeere omutukuvu, oba oyo azaalibwa omukazi nti ayinza okuba omutuukirivu?
15 Khangela, kathembeli kwabangcwele bakhe, lamazulu kawahlambulukanga emehlweni akhe.
Katonda bw’aba tassa bwesige mu batukuvu be, n’eggulu ne liba nga si ttukuvu mu maaso ge,
16 Kukangakanani umuntu onengekayo lowonakeleyo, onatha ububi njengamanzi!
oba oleeta otya omuntu obuntu, omugwagwa era omuvundu, anywa obutali butuukirivu nga amazzi!
17 Ngizakutshengisa, ungilalele, lengikubonileyo ngizakulandisa,
“Mpuliriza nnaakunnyonnyola, leka nkubuulire kye ndabye:
18 lokho izihlakaniphi ezikukhulumileyo kusukela kuboyise, njalo kazikufihlanga,
abasajja ab’amagezi kye bagambye nga tebalina kye bakwese ku kye baafuna okuva eri bakadde baabwe
19 okwanikwa kuzo zodwa ilizwe, lokungadlulanga izihambi phakathi kwazo.
abo bokka abaweebwa ensi nga tewali mugwira agiyitamu.
20 Insuku zonke zokhohlakeleyo uzizwisa ubuhlungu, lenani leminyaka ebekelelwe umcindezeli.
Omuntu omukozi w’ebibi, aba mu kubonaabona ennaku ze zonna, n’anyigirizibwa emyaka gyonna egyamutegekerwa.
21 Umsindo wezethuso usendlebeni zakhe; empumelelweni umchithi uzamfikela.
Amaloboozi agatiisa gajjuza amatu ge; byonna bwe biba ng’ebiteredde, abanyazi ne bamulumba.
22 Kakholwa ukuthi uzaphenduka emnyameni, kodwa ukuthi ulindelwe yinkemba.
Atya okuva mu kizikiza adde, ekitala kiba kimulinze okumusala.
23 Uzulela ukudla. Kungaphi? Uyazi ukuthi usuku lobumnyama lulungisiwe esandleni sakhe.
Adda eno n’eri ng’anoonya ky’anaalya, amanyi ng’olunaku olw’ekizikiza lumutuukiridde.
24 Uhlupho losizi kuyamethusa, kumehlule njengenkosi elungele impi.
Okweraliikirira n’obubalagaze bimubuutikira, bimujjula nga kabaka eyetegekedde olutalo.
25 Ngoba welule isandla sakhe emelene loNkulunkulu, wenza ngamandla ukumelana loSomandla.
Kubanga anyeenyerezza Katonda ekikonde, ne yeegereegeranya ku oyo Ayinzabyonna,
26 Wagijima emelene laye ngentamo, ngohlonzi lwamaqhubu ezihlangu zakhe.
n’agenda n’ekyejo amulumbe, n’engabo ennene enzito.
27 Ngoba wambomboza ubuso bakhe ngamafutha akhe, wenza ukhalo lwakhukhumala ngamafutha.
“Wadde nga yenna yagejja amaaso ng’ajjudde amasavu mu mbiriizi,
28 Uhlala emizini echithekileyo, izindlu abangahlali kuzo, ezilungele ukuba zinqumbi.
wakubeera mu bibuga eby’amatongo, ne mu bifulukwa, ennyumba ezigwa okufuuka ebifunfugu.
29 Kayikunotha, lenotho yakhe kayiyikuma, lenzuzo yakhe kayiyikusabalala emhlabeni.
Taddeyo kugaggawala, n’obugagga bwe tebulirwawo, n’ebintu by’alina tebirifuna mirandira mu ttaka.
30 Kayikusuka emnyameni; ilangabi lizakomisa ihlumela lakhe, njalo uzasuka ngokuphefumula komoya wakhe.
Taliwona kizikiza, olulimi lw’omuliro lunaakazanga amatabi ge, era omukka gw’omu kamwa gulimugobera wala.
31 Oduhisiweyo kangathembeli ezenini, ngoba ize lizakuba ngumvuzo wakhe.
Alemenga okwerimba nga yeesiga ebitaliimu, kubanga talina ky’ajja kuganyulwa.
32 Kuzafezwa kungakabi lusuku lwakhe, logatsha lwakhe aluyikuba luhlaza.
Wa kusasulwa byonna ng’obudde tebunnatuuka, n’amatabi ge tegalikula.
33 Uzawohloza izithelo zakhe ezingavuthwanga njengevini, athintithe impoko zakhe njengesihlahla somhlwathi.
Aliba ng’omuzabbibu ogugiddwako emizabbibu egitannaba kwengera, ng’omuzeyituuni ogukunkumula ebikoola byagwo.
34 Ngoba inhlangano yabazenzisi izakuba ngengelazithelo, lomlilo uzaqothula amathente ezivalamlomo.
Kubanga ekibiina ky’abatatya Katonda kinaabeeranga kigumba, era omuliro gunaayokyanga weema ezinaabangamu enguzi.
35 Bamitha uhlupho, bazale isono, lesizalo sabo silungisa inkohliso.
Baba embuto ez’ekibi ne bazaala obutali butuukirivu, embuto zaabwe zizaala obulimba.”
