UJobe 20
1 Wasephendula uZofari umNahama wathi:
Pamenepo Zofari wa ku Naama anayankha kuti
2 Ngakho imicabango yami ingenza ngiphendule, langenxa yokuphangisa kwami phakathi kwami.
“Kuvutika kwa mʼmaganizo kwanga kwandifulumiza kuti ndiyankhe chifukwa ndasautsidwa kwambiri.
3 Ngizwile isijeziso sehlazo lami, lomoya wokuqedisisa kwami ungenza ngiphendule.
Ndikumva kudzudzula kondinyoza, ndipo kumvetsetsa kwanga kwa zinthu kwandifulumiza kuti ndiyankhe.
4 Uyakwazi lokhu yini, kusukela endulo, selokhu kwabekwa umuntu emhlabeni,
“Ndithudi iwe ukudziwa momwe zinthu zakhala zikuchitikira kuyambira kale, kuchoka nthawi imene munthu analengedwa pa dziko lapansi,
5 ukuthi injabulo yababi imfitshane, lentokozo yomzenzisi ngeyesikhatshana nje?
kuti chisangalalo cha woyipa nʼchosachedwa kutha, chimwemwe cha wosapembedza Mulungu nʼchakanthawi kochepa.
6 Loba ubukhosi bakhe busenyukela emazulwini, lekhanda lakhe lifinyelela emayezini,
Ngakhale atamayenda mapewa ake ali mmwamba ndipo mutu wake uli nengʼaa,
7 uzabhubha phakade njengobulongwe bakhe; labo abambonileyo bathi: Ungaphi?
iye adzatheratu monga momwe imatayikira ndowe yake yomwe; iwo amene ankamuona adzati, ‘Kodi uje uja ali kuti?’
8 Uzaphapha njengephupho, bangabe besamthola; yebo, uzaxotshwa njengombono webusuku.
Adzazimirira ngati maloto ndipo sadzapezekanso, adzachotsedwa ngati masomphenya a usiku.
9 Ilihlo elike lambona aliyikuphinda, lendawo yakhe kayisayikumbona.
Diso limene linamuona silidzamuonanso; sadzapezekanso pamalo pake.
10 Abantwana bakhe bazadinga ukuthokozisa abayanga, lezandla zakhe zibuyisele inotho yakhe.
Ana ake adzabwezera zonse zimene iyeyo analanda anthu osauka;
11 Amathambo akhe ayegcwele ubutsha bakhe, kodwa azalala kanye laye enhlabathini.
Mphamvu zaunyamata zimene zili mʼthupi mwake zidzagona naye limodzi mʼfumbi.
12 Uba ububi bumnandi emlonyeni wakhe, ebufihla ngaphansi kolimi lwakhe,
“Ngakhale zoyipa zili zozuna mʼkamwa mwake ndipo amazibisa kunsi kwa lilime lake,
13 ebugodla, engabuyekeli, kodwa ebugcina phakathi komlomo wakhe,
ngakhale salola kuzilavula, ndipo amazisunga mʼkamwa mwake,
14 ukudla kwakhe kuzaphenduka esiswini sakhe, kuzakuba yibuhlungu bezinyoka phakathi kwakhe.
koma chakudya chake chidzawawasa mʼmimba mwake; chidzasanduka ngati ndulu ya njoka mʼkati mwa iyeyo.
15 Uginye inotho, kodwa uzayihlanza; uNkulunkulu uzayikhupha esiswini sakhe.
Adzachisanza chuma chimene anachimeza; Mulungu adzachitulutsa mʼmimba mwa munthuyo.
16 Uzamunya ubuhlungu bezinyoka, lolimi lwebululu luzambulala.
Iye adzayamwa ndulu ya njoka ndipo ululu wa mphiri udzamupha.
17 Kayikubona izifula, imifula, izifudlana zoluju lolaza.
Sadzasangalala ndi timitsinje, mitsinje yoyenda uchi ndi mafuta.
18 Uzabuyisela lokho akusebenzelayo, angakuginyi; njengokwenotho izakuba njalo inhlawulo, njalo kayikuthokoza.
Ayenera kubweza zimene anazigwirira ntchito osazidya; sadzasangalala ndi phindu la malonda ake.
19 Ngoba ubacindezele wabadela abayanga, waphanga indlu abengayakhanga.
Pakuti iye anapondereza anthu osauka ndipo anawasiya wopanda thandizo; iyeyo analanda nyumba zimene sanamange.
20 Ngoba kakwazi ukuthula esiswini sakhe, kayikusindisa lutho kusifiso sakhe.
“Chifukwa choti umbombo wake sutha, sadzatha kusunga chilichonse chimene amakondwera nacho.
21 Kakuyikusala lutho ekudleni kwakhe; ngenxa yalokhu okuhle kwakhe kakuyikuma.
Palibe chatsala kuti iye adye; chuma chake sichidzachedwa kutha.
22 Ekugcwaleni kokwanela kwakhe uzakuba lencindezelo; sonke isandla sohluphekayo sizamfikela.
Ngakhale ndi munthu wachuma, mavuto adzamugwera; mavuto aakulu adzamugwera.
23 Kuzakuthi lapho egcwalisa isisu sakhe, uNkulunkulu athumele kuye ukuvutha kwentukuthelo yakhe, akunise phezu kwakhe ekudleni kwakhe.
Akadya nʼkukhuta, Mulungu adzamugwetsera ukali wamoto ngati mvula yosalekeza.
24 Uzabalekela isikhali sensimbi, idandili lethusi lizamhlaba.
Ngakhale athawe mkondo wachitsulo, muvi wamkuwa wosongoka udzamulasa.
25 Uyalihwatsha, liphume emhlana, lokubenyezelayo kuzaphuma enyongweni yakhe; izesabiso ziphezu kwakhe.
Muviwo adzawutulutsira ku msana, songa yake yowala kuchoka mʼmphafa mwake. Adzagwidwa ndi mantha aakulu;
26 Ubumnyama bonke bugcinelwe izinto zakhe ezibekelelweyo; umlilo ongavuthelwayo uzamqeda; kuzakuba kubi kunsali ethenteni lakhe.
mdima wandiweyani ukudikira chuma chake. Moto wopanda wowukoleza udzamupsereza ndi kuwononga zonse zotsala mʼnyumba yake.
27 Amazulu azakwembula ububi bakhe, lomhlaba umvukele.
Zamumlengalenga zidzawulula kulakwa kwake; dziko lapansi lidzamuwukira.
28 Ukwanda kwendlu yakhe kuzanyamalala, kukhukhulwe osukwini lwentukuthelo yakhe.
Chigumula cha madzi chidzawononga nyumba yake, katundu wake adzatengedwa pa tsiku la ukali wa Mulungu.
29 Lesi yisabelo somuntu omubi esivela kuNkulunkulu, lelifa alimiselwa nguNkulunkulu.
Izi ndi zimene Mulungu amasungira anthu oyipa, mphotho imene Mulungu amayikira iwowo.”
