UJobe 6
1 UJobe wasephendula wathi:
Tsono Yobu anayankha kuti,
2 Kungathi ukudabuka kwami bekungalinganiswa lokulinganiswa, lenhlupheko yami ibekwe ndawonye esikalini!
“Achikhala mavuto anga anayezedwa, ndipo zipsinjo zanga zonse zikanayikidwa pa sikelo!
3 Ngoba khathesi kungaba nzima kuletshebetshebe lolwandle. Ngenxa yalokho amazwi ami angawamawala.
Ndithu, zikanalemera kupambana mchenga wa ku nyanja; nʼchifukwa chake mawu anga akhala okhadzula.
4 Ngoba imitshoko kaSomandla iphakathi kwami, obuhlungu bayo umoya wami uyabunatha; izesabiso zikaNkulunkulu ziyazihlela zimelene lami.
Mivi ya Wamphamvuzonse yandibaya, thupi langa likumva ululu wa miviyo; zoopsa za Mulungu zandizinga.
5 Ubabhemi weganga uyakhala yini esohlazeni, kumbe inkabi iyakhonya yini ekudleni kwayo?
Kodi bulu wakuthengo amalira akakhala ndi msipu, nanga ngʼombe imalira ikakhala ndi chakudya?
6 Kambe okuduma kungadliwa kungelatshwayi? Kulokuhlabusa kokumhlophe kweqanda yini?
Kodi chakudya chosakoma nʼkuchidya chopanda mchere, nanga choyera cha dzira chimakoma?
7 Umphefumulo wami uyala ukukuthinta, kunjengokudla kwami okunengekayo.
Zakudya zimenezi sindifuna nʼkuzilawa komwe; zakudya zimenezi zimabwerera kukhosi.
8 Kungathi isicelo sami singafika, njalo uNkulunkulu anginike ithemba lami,
“Aa, ndikanalandira chimene ndikuchipempha, chikhala Mulungu anandipatsa chimene ndikuchiyembekezera,
9 ukuthi kumthokozise uNkulunkulu ukungichoboza, ayekele isandla sakhe, angiqume.
achikhala chinamukomera Mulungu kuti anditswanye, kulola dzanja lake kuti lindimenye ndi kundiwonongeratu!
10 Khona kungahlala kube yinduduzo yami, bengingajabula ebuhlungwini obungayekeliyo; ngoba kangiwafihlanga amazwi oNgcwele.
Pamenepo ine ndikanakhalabe ndi chitonthozo ichi, ndikanakondwa mu ululu wanga wosalekezawu podziwa kuti sindinakane mawu a Woyerayo.
11 Ayini amandla ami ukuze ngithembe? Lokuphela kwami kuyini ukuze ngelule impilo yami?
“Kodi mphamvu zanga nʼzotani kuti ndizikhalabe ndi chiyembekezo? Nanga zoyembekezera zanga nʼzotani kuti ndipirirebe?
12 Amandla ami angamandla amatshe yini? Inyama yami ilithusi yini?
Kodi ine ndili ndi mphamvu? Nanga thupi langa ndi lolimba ngati chitsulo?
13 Usizo lwami kalukimi yini? Lenhlakanipho iyaxotshwa kimi yini?
Kodi ndili ndi mphamvu zodzithandizira ndekha, nanga pakuti thandizo lachotsedwa kwa ine?
14 Ohluphekayo nga ehawukelwa ngumngane wakhe, kodwa udela ukwesabeka kukaSomandla.
“Munthu amene ali kakasi ayenera kukhala ndi abwenzi odzipereka, ngakhale kuti iyeyo wasiya kuopa Wamphamvuzonse.
15 Abafowethu kabenzanga ngokuthembeka njengesifula, njengempophoma yezifula bayedlula,
Koma abale anga ndi wosadalirika ngati mitsinje yowuma msanga, ngati mitsinje imene imathamanga.
16 ezimnyama ngenxa yongqwaqwane, okucatsha kizo iliqhwa elikhithikileyo.
Ali ngati mitsinje ya madzi akuda nthawi ya dzinja, imene madzi ake amakhala ambiri chifukwa chakuchuluka kwa mvula,
17 Ngesikhathi sokufudumala kwazo ziyanyamalala, sekutshisa zicitshe endaweni yazo.
koma madziwo amasiya kuyenda nthawi yachilimwe, ndipo nthawi yotentha madziwo amawumiratu mʼmitsinjemo.
18 Imikhondo yendlela yazo iyajika, yenyukele enkangala ibhubhe.
Anthu oyenda pa ngamira amapatukirako kufuna madzi; iwo amangoyendayenda nʼkufera mʼchipululu.
19 Izihambi zeTema zakhangela, indwendwe zezihambi zeShebha zalindela kuyo.
Anthu oyenda pa ngamira a ku Tema amafunafuna madzi, anthu amalonda apaulendo a ku Seba amafunafuna mwa chiyembekezo.
20 Zaba lenhloni ngoba zazithembile, zafika kuyo zayangeka.
Amataya mtima chifukwa ankayembekezera kupeza madzi; koma akafika kumeneko, amangokhumudwako.
21 Ngoba khathesi kalisilutho; liyabona isesabiso, liyesaba.
Tsono inunso mukuonetsa kuti ndinu osathandiza, mukuona chinthu choopsa kwambiri ndipo mukuchita mantha.
22 Ngitshilo yini ukuthi: Lethani kimi? Kumbe: Phanini isipho ngenxa yami empahleni yenu?
Kodi ine ndinanenapo kuti, ‘Ndiperekereni kenakake, ndilipirireni dipo kuchokera pa chuma chanu,
23 Kumbe: Ngikhululani esandleni sesitha? Kumbe: Lingihlenge esandleni sabalesihluku?
ndilanditseni mʼdzanja la mdani, ndiwomboleni mʼdzanja la munthu wankhanza?’
24 Ngifundisani, khona mina ngizathula; lingenze ngiqedisise engiduhe khona.
“Phunzitseni, ndipo ine ndidzakhala chete; ndionetseni pomwe ndalakwitsa.
25 Alamandla angakanani amazwi aqotho; kodwa ukusola okuvela kini kusolani?
Ndithu, mawu owona ndi opweteka! Koma mawu anu otsutsa akufuna kuonetsa chiyani?
26 Likhumbula amazwi okusola yini, lezinkulumo zophelelwe lithemba zingumoya?
Kodi inu mukufuna kundidzudzula pa zimene ndikunena, ndipo mukufuna kuyesa mawu a munthu wosweka mtima ngati mphepo chabe?
27 Yebo, liziwisela phezu kwentandane, ligebhele umngane wenu umgodi.
Inu mungathe kuchita maere kuti mugulitse ana amasiye ndi kumugulitsa bwenzi lanu.
28 Ngakho-ke, vumani lingikhangele, ngoba kuphambi kobuso benu nxa ngiqamba amanga.
“Koma tsopano ndichitireni chifundo pamene mukundiyangʼana. Kodi ine ndingayankhule zabodza pamaso panu?
29 Ake liphenduke, kungabi lobubi, yebo, libuye liphenduke, ukulunga kwami kukukho.
Fewani mtima, musachite zosalungama; ganiziraninso popeza chilungamo changa chikanalipobe.
30 Kambe kukhona ububi olimini lwami? Ukunambitha kwami bekungehlukanise yini izinto ezimbi?
Kodi pali choyipa chilichonse pa milomo yanga? Kodi pakamwa panga sipangathe kuzindikira kanthu koyipa?
