1 Ndodana yami, gcina amazwi ami, uzibekele imilayo yami.
Mutabani nyweeza ebigambo byange, era okuumenga ebiragiro byange.
2 Gcina imilayo yami, uphile, lomthetho wami njengenhlamvu yamehlo akho.
Kwata ebiragiro byange obeere mulamu, n’amateeka gange ogakuume ng’emmunye y’eriiso lyo;
3 Ukubophele eminweni yakho, kubhale esibhebheni senhliziyo yakho.
togalekanga kuva mu ngalo zo, gawandiike ku mutima gwo.
4 Uthi kunhlakanipho: Ungudadewethu; ubize ukuqedisisa ngokuthi yisihlobo sakho;
Amagezi gatwalire ddala nga mwannyoko, n’okutegeera, ng’owooluganda ow’omu kika kyo.
5 ukuze kukugcine kumfazi wemzini, kowesifazana wemzini oyengayo ngamazwi akhe.
Binaakuwonyanga omukazi omwenzi, omukazi omutambuze awaanawaana n’ebigambo ebisendasenda.
6 Ngoba ewindini lendlu yami, ngeminxibo yewindi ngalunguza phandle,
Lumu nnali nnyimiridde ku ddirisa ly’ennyumba yange.
7 ngasengibona phakathi kwabangelalwazi, ngananzelela phakathi kwabatsha ijaha eliswele ingqondo,
Ne ndaba mu bavubuka abatoototo, omulenzi atalina magezi,
8 lisedlula esitaladeni eceleni kwengonsi yakhe, linyathela endleleni yendlu yakhe,
ng’ayita mu luguudo okumpi n’akafo k’omukazi omwenzi, n’akwata ekkubo eridda ku nnyumba y’omukazi oyo,
9 kusihlwa, ngentambama yosuku, ebusuku obumnyama, lomnyama.
olw’eggulo ng’obudde buzibye, ekizikiza nga kikutte.
10 Khangela-ke, owesifazana walihlangabeza, lesembatho sewule, elobuqili ngenhliziyo.
Awo omukazi n’ajja okumusisinkana ng’ayambadde nga malaaya, ng’ajjudde ebirowoozo eby’obukaba mu mutima gwe.
11 Lo wayelomsindo, eyisiqholo; inyawo zakhe kazihlali endlini yakhe.
Omukazi omukalukalu, atambulatambula ennyo atabeerako waka,
12 Khathesi uphandle, abesesiba ezitaladeni, ecathama kuyo yonke ingonsi.
wuuyo mu luguudo, wuuyo mu bifo ebikuŋŋaanirwamu, mu buli kafo konna ng’ateega!
13 Ngokunjalo walibamba, walanga, waqinisa ubuso bakhe, wathi kulo:
N’amuvumbagira, n’amunywegera era ng’amutunuulidde nkaliriza n’amaaso agatatya n’amugamba nti:
14 Imihlatshelo yeminikelo yokuthula ikimi; lamuhla sengibhadele izifungo zami.
“Nnina ssaddaaka ez’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe, leero ntukiriza obweyamo bwange.
15 Ngakho-ke ngiphumile ukukuhlangabeza, ngidingisise ubuso bakho; ngikutholile.
Noolwekyo nzize okukusisinkana, mbadde njagala nnyo okukulaba, era kaakano nkusanze.
16 Ngendlele umbheda wami ngezendlalo, ngamalembu acolekileyo kakhulu alemibalabala avela eGibhithe.
Obuliri bwange mbwaze bulungi n’engoye eza linena ava mu Misiri.
17 Ngifafazile umbheda wami ngemure, izinhlaba, lekinamoni.
Mbukubye n’akaloosa, n’omugavu, n’obubaane, ne kinamoni, ne kalifuuwa.
18 Woza, sizidakise ngothando kuze kuse, sizithokozise ngothando olukhulu.
Jjangu tuwoomerwe omukwano okutuusa obudde okukya; leka twesanyuse ffembi mu mukwano.
19 Ngoba indoda kayikho endlini yayo, ihambile uhambo khatshana.
Kubanga baze taliiyo eka; yatambula olugendo luwanvu:
20 Ithethe isaka lemali esandleni sayo; ngosuku lwenyanga egcweleyo izakuza endlini yayo.
Yagenda n’ensawo y’ensimbi; era alikomawo nga wayiseewo wiiki bbiri.”
21 Walihuga ngobunengi bemfundiso yakhe, walivumisa ngenkulumo zakhe ezincengayo.
Yamusendasenda n’ebigambo ebisikiriza; n’amuwabya n’ebigambo ebiwoomerera.
22 Lahle lamlandela njengenkabi isiya ekuhlatshweni, lanjengesiphukuphuku sisiya ekujezisweni esongweni lenqagala;
Amangwago omuvubuka n’amugoberera ng’ente etwalibwa okuttibwa obanga empeewo egwa mu mutego,
23 uze umtshoko uhlabe isibindi salo, njengenyoni iphangisela esifwini, ingazi ukuthi simelene lempilo yayo.
okutuusa akasaale lwe kafumita ekibumba kyayo, ng’akanyonyi bwe kanguwa okugwa mu mutego, so tamanyi ng’alifiirwa obulamu bwe.
24 Khathesi-ke, bantwana, ngizweni, lilalele amazwi omlomo wami.
Kaakano nno batabani bange mumpulirize, era musseeyo nnyo omwoyo eri ebigambo byange.
25 Inhliziyo yakho kayingaphambukeli endleleni zakhe; ungaduhi emikhondweni yakhe.
Temukkiriza mitima gyammwe kugoberera bigambo bye; temukkiriza bigere byammwe kukyamira mu makubo ge.
26 Ngoba ubawisele phansi abanengi abalimeleyo, labo bonke ababuleweyo bakhe banengi.
Kubanga bangi bazikiridde, ddala ab’amaanyi bangi bagudde.
27 Indlu yakhe izindlela zesihogo, ezehlela emakamelweni okufa. (Sheol )
Ennyumba ye, lye kkubo eridda emagombe, nga likka mu bisenge eby’okufa. (Sheol )
