Izaga 10
1 Izaga zikaSolomoni. Indodana ehlakaniphileyo ithokozisa uyise, kodwa indodana eyisithutha ilusizi kunina.
Salomo mmɛbusɛm: Ɔba nyansafoɔ ma nʼagya ani gye, na ɔba kwasea brɛ ne maame awerɛhoɔ.
2 Inotho yenkohlakalo kayisizi lutho, kodwa ukulunga kophula ekufeni.
Ɛkwan bɔne so ahonya nni boɔ, nanso tenenee gye onipa firi owuo mu.
3 INkosi kayiyekeli umphefumulo wolungileyo ulambe, kodwa isunduza isifiso sababi.
Awurade remma ɛkɔm nne ɔteneneeni na omumuyɛfoɔ deɛ ɔka nʼadepa gu.
4 Osebenza ngesandla esixegayo uba ngumyanga, kodwa isandla sabakhutheleyo siyanothisa.
Nsa a ɛnyɛ adwuma ma onipa di hia, nanso nsiyɛfoɔ nsa de ahonya ba.
5 Ovuna ehlobo uyindodana ehlakaniphileyo; olala ubuthongo obukhulu ngesikhathi sokuvuna uyindodana ethelela ihlazo.
Deɛ ɔboaboa nnɔbaeɛ ano wɔ ahuhuro berɛ no yɛ ɔba nyansafoɔ na deɛ ɔda wɔ twaberɛ mu no yɛ ɔba nimguaseni.
6 Izibusiso zisekhanda lolungileyo, kodwa ubudlwangudlwangu busibekela umlomo wabakhohlakeleyo.
Teneneefoɔ hyɛ nhyira kyɛ na akakabensɛm ayɛ omumuyɛfoɔ anom ma.
7 Ukukhunjulwa kolungileyo kungokwesibusiso, kodwa ibizo labakhohlakeleyo lizabola.
Ɔteneneeni nkaeɛ yɛ nhyira, na omumuyɛfoɔ din bɛporɔ.
8 Ohlakaniphileyo ngenhliziyo uyemukela imilayo, kodwa isithutha ngendebe sizawiselwa phansi.
Akoma mu nyansafoɔ tie ɔhyɛ nsɛm, na ɔkwasea kasafoɔ hwe ase.
9 Ohamba ngobuqotho uhamba evikelekile, kodwa ophambula indlela zakhe uzakwaziwa.
Ɔnokwafoɔ nante dwoodwoo, na deɛ ɔfa akwan kɔntɔnkye so no ho bɛda adi.
10 Ociyoza ilihlo ubanga inkathazo, njalo isithutha ngendebe sizawiselwa phansi.
Deɛ ɔde nitan bu nʼani no de ɔhaw ba, na ɔkwasea kasafoɔ hwe ase.
11 Umlomo wolungileyo ungumthombo wempilo, kodwa ubudlwangudlwangu busibekela umlomo wabakhohlakeleyo.
Ɔteneneeni anom yɛ nkwa asutire, na akakabensɛm ayɛ omumuyɛfoɔ anom ma.
12 Inzondo ibanga ingxabano, kodwa uthando lusibekela iziphambeko zonke.
Ɔtan hwanyan mpaapaemu, nanso ɔdɔ kata mfomsoɔ nyinaa so.
13 Endebeni zoqedisisayo kutholakala inhlakanipho, kodwa intonga ingeyomhlana woswela ingqondo.
Wohunu nyansa wɔ nhunumufoɔ anom, na abaa fata deɛ ɔnni atemmuo akyi.
14 Abahlakaniphileyo babekelela ulwazi, kodwa umlomo wesithutha useduze lencithakalo.
Anyansafoɔ kora nimdeɛ, nanso ɔkwasea ano frɛfrɛ ɔsɛeɛ.
15 Inotho yonothileyo ingumuzi wamandla akhe; ubuyanga babayanga buyincithakalo yabo.
Adefoɔ ahonya yɛ wɔn kuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban, nanso ahiafoɔ hia yɛ wɔn asehweɛ.
16 Umsebenzi wolungileyo ngowempilo; inzuzo yokhohlakeleyo ngeyesono.
Ateneneefoɔ akatua de nkwa brɛ wɔn, na deɛ amumuyɛfoɔ nya no de asotwe brɛ wɔn.
17 Ogcina ukulaywa usendleleni yempilo, kodwa odelela ukukhuzwa ubanga ukuduha.
Deɛ ɔtie nteteeɛ pa no kyerɛ nkwa kwan, na deɛ ɔpo ntenesoɔ no di afoforɔ anim yera ɛkwan.
18 Osibekela inzondo ungowendebe zamanga, lohlebayo uyisithutha.
Deɛ ɔkata nitan soɔ no yɛ ɔtorofoɔ, na deɛ ɔdi nsekuro no yɛ ɔkwasea.
19 Ebunengini bamazwi ukuphambeka kakusileli, kodwa othiba indebe zakhe uhlakaniphile.
Mfomsoɔ mpa ɔkasa bebree mu, na deɛ ɔkora ne tɛkrɛma no yɛ onyansafoɔ.
20 Ulimi lolungileyo luyisiliva esikhethekileyo; inhliziyo yokhohlakeleyo injengento encinyane.
Ɔteneneeni tɛkrɛma yɛ dwetɛ amapa nanso omumuyɛfoɔ akoma nni boɔ.
21 Indebe zolungileyo zondla abanengi, kodwa izithutha ziyafa ngokuswela ingqondo.
Teneneefoɔ ano ho mfasoɔ ma bebree aduane, na atemmuo a nkwaseafoɔ nni enti wɔwuwu.
22 Isibusiso seNkosi sona siyanothisa; njalo kayengezi usizi kuso.
Awurade nhyira de ahonya ba, na ɔmmfa ɔhaw biara nka ho.
23 Kunjengenhlekisa koyisithutha ukwenza okubi; kunjalo inhlakanipho kumuntu wokuqedisisa.
Bɔneyɛ yɛ anigyedeɛ ma ɔkwasea, nanso deɛ ɔwɔ nimdeɛ anigyeɛ wɔ nyansa mu.
24 Lokho okhohlakeleyo akwesabayo kuzamfikela, kodwa isiloyiso solungileyo sizanikwa.
Deɛ amumuyɛfoɔ suro no bɛba wɔn so; na deɛ teneneefoɔ pɛ no, wɔde bɛma wɔn.
25 Njengokwedlula kwesivunguzane, unjalo okhohlakeleyo kasekho; kodwa olungileyo uyisisekelo saphakade.
Sɛ ahum no bɛtwam a, amumuyɛfoɔ yera, nanso teneneefoɔ gyina hɔ pintinn afebɔɔ.
26 Njengeviniga emazinyweni, lanjengentuthu emehlweni, unjalo olivila kwabamthumileyo.
Sɛdeɛ nsã kekakeka ka ɛse, na wisie kɔ ani no, saa ara na ɔkwadwofoɔ yɛ ma wɔn a wɔsoma noɔ.
27 Ukuyesaba iNkosi kwandisa insuku, kodwa iminyaka yabakhohlakeleyo izafinyezwa.
Awurade suro ma nkwa tenten, nanso wɔtwa amumuyɛfoɔ nkwa so.
28 Ithemba labalungileyo liyintokozo, kodwa okulindelwayo kwabakhohlakeleyo kuzabhubha.
Teneneefoɔ anidasoɔ de ahotɔ ba, nanso amumuyɛfoɔ anidasoɔ nkɔsi hwee.
29 Indlela yeNkosi iyinqaba koqotho, kodwa iyincithakalo kubenzi bobubi.
Awurade ɛkwan yɛ dwanekɔbea ma ɔteneneeni, nanso ɛyɛ ɔsɛeɛ ma wɔn a wɔyɛ bɔne.
30 Olungileyo kayikunyikinywa laphakade, kodwa abakhohlakeleyo kabayikuhlala elizweni.
Wɔrentɔre teneneefoɔ ase da, nanso amumuyɛfoɔ renka asase no so.
31 Umlomo wolungileyo ukhupha inhlakanipho, kodwa ulimi oluphambeneyo luzaqunywa.
Nyansa firi teneneeni anom ba nanso tɛkrɛma a ɛdaadaa no wɔbɛtwa atwene.
32 Indebe zolungileyo ziyazi okuthokozisayo, kodwa umlomo wabakhohlakeleyo iziphambeko.
Teneneefoɔ ano nim adeɛ a ɛfata na omumuyɛfoɔ ano nim deɛ ɛyɛ nnaadaasɛm nko ara.
