Izaga 19
1 Umyanga ohamba ngobuqotho bakhe ungcono kulophambeneyo endebeni zakhe, njalo oyisithutha.
Ohiani a ne nantew ho nni asɛm no ye sen ɔkwasea a nʼasɛm mfa kwan mu.
2 Futhi umphefumulo ongelalwazi kawulunganga, lophangisayo ngezinyawo uyona.
Mmɔdemmɔ a nimdeɛ nka ho no nye, saa ara na ntɛmpɛ a ɛma obi yera kwan nso nye.
3 Ubuthutha bomuntu buphambula indlela yakhe, lenhliziyo yakhe iyayithukuthelela iNkosi.
Onipa agyimisɛm sɛe nʼabrabɔ, nanso ne koma huru tia Awurade.
4 Inotho yengeza abangane abanengi, kodwa umyanga wehlukaniswa lomngane wakhe.
Ahonya frɛfrɛ nnamfonom bebree; nanso ohiani adamfo gyaw no hɔ.
5 Umfakazi wamanga kayikuyekelwa engajeziswanga, lophafuza amanga kayikuphunyuka.
Adansekurumni benya nʼakatua, na nea otwa nkontompo remfa ne ho nni.
6 Banengi abancenga umusa weziphathamandla; njalo wonke ungumngane womuntu wezipho.
Nnipa pii pɛ adom fi sodifo nkyɛn, na nea ɔkyɛ ade yɛ obiara adamfo.
7 Bonke abazalwane bomyanga bayamzonda; kakhulu kangakanani abangane bakhe besiya khatshana laye; uxotshana labongamazwi kodwa kabatholakali.
Ohiani abusuafo nyinaa po no, na saa ara na ne nnamfonom po no! Mpo ɔhwehwɛ wɔn, pɛ sɛ ɔpa wɔn kyɛw, nanso onhu wɔn baabiara.
8 Ozuza ingqondo uthanda umphefumulo wakhe; unanzelela ukuqedisisa uzathola okuhle.
Nea onya nyansa no dɔ ne kra; nea ɔpɛ nhumu no nya nkɔso.
9 Umfakazi wamanga kayikuyekelwa engajeziswanga, lophafuza amanga uzabhubha.
Adansekurumni benya asotwe, na nea otwa nkontompo no bɛyera.
10 Ukutamasa kakusifanele isiwula; kakhulu kangakanani ukuthi inceku ibuse phezu kweziphathamandla.
Ɛmfata sɛ ɔkwasea bedi taamu, anaasɛ akoa bedi mmapɔmma so!
11 Ukuqedisisa komuntu kuphuzisa ukuthukuthela kwakhe; lodumo lwakhe yikwedlula isiphambeko.
Onipa nyansa ma no ntoboase; ɛyɛ anuonyam ma obi sɛ obebu nʼani gu mfomso bi so.
12 Ulaka lwenkosi lunjengokubhonga kwebhongo lesilwane, kodwa umusa wayo unjengamazolo etshanini.
Ɔhene abufuw te sɛ gyata mmubomu, na nʼadom te sɛ sare so bosu.
13 Indodana eyisithutha iyincithakalo kayise; lengxabano zomfazi ziyikuthonta njalonjalo.
Ɔba kwasea yɛ nʼagya ɔsɛe, ɔyere tɔkwapɛfo te sɛ ɔdan a ne nwini to ntwa da.
14 Umuzi lenotho kuyilifa labobaba, kodwa umfazi ohlakaniphileyo uvela eNkosini.
Afi ne ahonyade yɛ agyapade a efi awofo, na ɔyere nimdefo fi Awurade.
15 Ubuvila buphosela ebuthongweni obukhulu, lomphefumulo olivila uzalamba.
Akwadworɔ de nnahɔɔ ba, na ɔkɔm de ɔkwadwofo.
16 Ogcina umlayo ugcina umphefumulo wakhe; odelela indlela zakhe uzakufa.
Nea odi nkyerɛkyerɛ so no bɔ ne nkwa ho ban, na nea ogyaagyaa ne ho no bewu.
17 Ozwela umyanga weboleka iNkosi; izambhadala ngesenzo sakhe.
Nea ɔyɛ adɔe ma ohiani no yɛ de fɛm Awurade, na obetua no nea ɔyɛ no so ka.
18 Laya indodana yakho kuselethemba, kodwa ungaloyisi ukufa kwayo.
Teɛ wo ba, na ɛno mu na anidaso wɔ, na nyɛ wɔn a wɔde no kɔ owu mu no mu baako.
19 Ololaka olukhulu uzathwala inhlawulo; ngoba nxa umophula uzabe lokhu uqhubeka ukwenza.
Ɛsɛ sɛ onipa a ne koma haw no no nya so asotwe; sɛ woka ma no a, wobɛyɛ bio.
20 Lalela izeluleko, wemukele imfundiso, ukuze uhlakaniphe ekucineni kwakho.
Tie afotu na gye nkyerɛkyerɛ to mu, na awiei no, wubehu nyansa.
21 Kulamacebo amanengi enhliziyweni yomuntu, kodwa iseluleko seNkosi sona sizakuma.
Nhyehyɛe bebree wɔ onipa koma mu, nanso nea Awurade pɛ no na ɛba mu.
22 Isiloyiso somuntu ngumusa wakhe, njalo umyanga ungcono kulomuntu wamanga.
Nea onipa pɛ ne nokware dɔ; eye sɛ wobɛyɛ ohiani sen sɛ wobɛyɛ ɔtorofo.
23 Ukuyesaba iNkosi kungokwempilo; ngoba olakho uzalala ebusuku esuthi; kayikwethekelelwa yibubi.
Awurade suro kɔ nkwa mu; na onipa de abotɔyam home a ɔhaw bi nni mu.
24 Ivila lifihla isandla salo emganwini, njalo kaliyikusibuyisela emlonyeni walo.
Ɔkwadwofo de ne nsa si aduan mu, na ɛyɛ no anihaw sɛ obeyi akɔ nʼano.
25 Tshaya isideleli ongelalwazi abesekhalipha; njalo khuza oqedisisayo, uzaqedisisa ulwazi.
Twa ɔfɛwdifo mmaa, na atetekwaa bɛfa adwene; ka nea ɔwɔ nhumu anim, na obenya nimdeɛ.
26 Ochitha uyise, axotshe unina, uyindodana ethelela inhloni ilethe ihlazo.
Nea ɔbɔ nʼagya korɔn na ɔpam ne na no yɛ ɔba a ɔde aniwu ne animguase ba.
27 Yekela, ndodana yami, ukulalela ukulaywa, ukuphambuka emazwini olwazi.
Me ba, sɛ wugyae nkyerɛkyerɛ tie a, wobɛman afi nimdeɛ nsɛm ho.
28 Umfakazi omubi udelela isahlulelo, lomlomo wabakhohlakeleyo uginya ububi.
Adansekurumni di atɛntrenee ho fɛw; na omumɔyɛfo ano mene bɔne.
29 Izahlulelo zilungiselwe izideleli, lemivimvinya umhlana wezithutha.
Wɔasiesie asotwe ama fɛwdifo, ne mmaabɔ ama nkwaseafo akyi.
