Muparidzi 7
1 Zita rakanaka rinopfuura mafuta anonhuhwira zvakanaka kwazvo, uye zuva rokufa rinopfuura zuva rokuzvarwa.
Mbiri yabwino ndi yopambana mafuta onunkhira bwino, ndipo tsiku lomwalira ndi lopambana tsiku lobadwa.
2 Zviri nani kuenda kuimba yokuchema pano kuenda kuimba yamabiko, nokuti rufu ndiwo mugumo womunhu wose; vapenyu ngavazviise izvi pamwoyo.
Kuli bwino kupita ku nyumba yamaliro kusiyana ndi kupita ku nyumba yamadyerero: Pakuti imfa ndiye mathero a munthu aliyense; anthu amoyo azichisunga chimenechi mʼmitima mwawo.
3 Kusuwa kunopfuura kuseka, nokuti chiso chinopunyaira chakanakira mwoyo.
Chisoni nʼchabwino kusiyana ndi kuseka, pakuti nkhope yakugwa ndi yabwino chifukwa imakonza mtima.
4 Mwoyo womuchenjeri uri mumba yokuchema, asi mwoyo yamapenzi iri kuimba yamafaro.
Mtima wa munthu wanzeru nthawi zonse umalingalira za imfa, koma mitima ya zitsiru imalingalira za chisangalalo.
5 Zviri nani kuteerera kutsiura kwomunhu akachenjera, pano kuteerera rwiyo rwamapenzi.
Kuli bwino kumva kudzudzula kwa munthu wanzeru kusiyana ndi kumvera mayamiko a zitsiru.
6 Sokuputika kweminzwa pasi pehari, ndizvo zvakaita kuseka kwamapenzi. Naizvozviwo hazvina maturo.
Kuseka kwa zitsiru kuli ngati kuthetheka kwa moto kunsi kwa mʼphika, izinso ndi zopandapake.
7 Udzvinyiriri hunoshandura muchenjeri achiva benzi, uye fufuro inosvibisa mwoyo.
Kuzunza ena kumasandutsa munthu wanzeru kukhala chitsiru, ndipo chiphuphu chimawononga mtima.
8 Magumo echinhu anopfuura mavambo acho, uye mwoyo murefu unopfuura kuzvikudza.
Mathero ake a chinthu ndi abwino kupambana chiyambi chake, ndipo kufatsa nʼkwabwino kupambana kudzikuza.
9 Usakurumidza kutsamwa pamweya wako nokuti kutsamwa kunogara muchipfuva chamapenzi.
Usamafulumire kukwiya mu mtima mwako, pakuti mkwiyo ndi bwenzi la zitsiru.
10 Usati, “Sei mazuva akare ari nani kupfuura azvino?” Nokuti hazvina kuchenjera kubvunza mibvunzo yakadaro.
Usamafunse kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani masiku amakedzana anali abwino kupambana masiku ano?” pakuti si chinthu chanzeru kufunsa mafunso oterewa.
11 Uchenjeri chinhu chakanaka senhaka, uye hunobatsira avo vanoona zuva.
Nzeru ngati cholowa, ndi chinthu chabwino ndipo imapindulitsa wamoyo aliyense pansi pano.
12 Uchenjeri hunodzivirira sokudzivirira kunoita mari, asi kunakisa kworuzivo ndokuku: kuti uchenjeri hunochengetedza upenyu hwomunhu anahwo.
Nzeru ndi chitetezo, monganso ndalama zili chitetezo, koma phindu la chidziwitso ndi ili: kuti nzeru zimasunga moyo wa munthu amene ali nazo nzeruzo.
13 Cherechedza zvakaitwa naMwari: Ndiani angatwasanudza zvaakagonyanisa?
Taganizirani zimene Mulungu wazichita: ndani angathe kuwongola chinthu chimene Iye anachipanga chokhota?
14 Kana zvinhu zvakanaka, fara; asi kana nguva dzakaipa, rangarira kuti: Mwari ndiye akaita izvozvo zvose zviri zviviri. Naizvozvo, munhu haagoni kuziva chinhu pamusoro peramangwana rake.
Pamene zinthu zili bwino, sangalala; koma pamene zinthu sizili bwino, ganizira bwino: Mulungu ndiye anapanga nthawi yabwinoyo, ndiponso nthawi imene si yabwinoyo. Choncho munthu sangathe kuzindikira chilichonse cha mʼtsogolo mwake.
15 Muupenyu hwangu husina maturo ndakaona zvose izvi: akarurama achiparara mukururama kwake, nowakaipa achirarama nguva refu mukuipa kwake.
Pa moyo wanga wopanda phinduwu ndaona zinthu ziwiri izi: munthu wolungama akuwonongeka mʼchilungamo chake, ndipo munthu woyipa akukhala moyo wautali mʼzoyipa zake.
16 Usava munhu akanyanyisa kururama, kana munhu akanyanyisa kuchenjera, uchazviparadzireiko?
Usakhale wolungama kwambiri kapena wanzeru kwambiri, udziwonongerenji wekha?
17 Usava munhu akanyanyisa kuipa, uye usava benzi. Ungada kufa nguva yako isati yakwana?
Usakhale woyipa kwambiri, ndipo usakhale chitsiru, uferenji nthawi yako isanakwane?
18 Zvakanaka kubatisisa chimwe chinhu, uye usingaregedzi chimwe chacho chichienda. Munhu anotya Mwari acharega kuita zvinopfurikidza mwero.
Nʼkwabwino kuti utsate njira imodzi, ndipo usataye njira inayo. Munthu amene amaopa Mulungu adzapewa zinthu ziwiri zonsezi.
19 Uchenjeri hunoita kuti mumwe munhu akachenjera ave nesimba guru kupfuura vatariri gumi vari muguta.
Nzeru zimapereka mphamvu zambiri kwa munthu wanzeru kupambana olamulira khumi a mu mzinda.
20 Hapana munhu akarurama panyika, anoita zvakanaka uye asingatadzi.
Palibe munthu wolungama pa dziko lapansi amene amachita zabwino zokhazokha ndipo sachimwa.
21 Usava nehanya namashoko ose anotaurwa navanhu, zvichida ungangonzwa muranda wako achikutuka,
Usamamvetsere mawu onse amene anthu amayankhula, mwina udzamva wantchito wako akukutukwana,
22 nokuti unoziva mumwoyo mako kuti nguva zhinji iwe pachako wakambotuka vamwe.
pakuti iwe ukudziwa mu mtima mwako kuti nthawi zambiri iwenso unatukwanapo ena.
23 Zvose izvi ndakazviedza nouchenjeri ndikati, “Ndakazvipira kuva munhu akachenjera,” asi izvi zvaiva kure neni.
Zonsezi ndinaziyesa ndi nzeru zanga ndipo ndinati, “Ine ndatsimikiza mu mtima mwanga kuti ndikhale wanzeru,” koma nzeruyo inanditalikira.
24 Chii zvacho chingava uchenjeri, chiri kure kwazvo uye chakadzama, ndiani angachiwana?
Nzeru zimene zilipo, zili kutali ndipo ndi zozama kwambiri, ndani angathe kuzidziwa?
25 Saka ndakashandura pfungwa dzangu ndikatanga kutsvaka kunzwisisa, kuti ndiongorore uye nditsvakisise uchenjeri nourongwa hwezvinhu, uye kuti ndinzwisise upenzi hwokuipa nomupengo hwoupenzi.
Kotero ndinayikapo mtima wanga kuti ndidziwe, ndifufuze ndi kumafunafuna nzeru ndi mmene zinthu zimakhalira ndipo ndinafunanso kudziwa kuyipa kwa uchitsiru ndiponso kupusa kwake kwa misala.
26 Ndakawana chinhu chinovava kupfuura rufu, mukadzi anova musungo, mwoyo wake uri hunza uye maoko ake ari ngetani. Munhu anofadza Mwari achapunyuka kwaari, asi mutadzi achabatwa naye.
Ndinapeza kanthu kowawa kupambana imfa, mkazi amene ali ngati khoka, amene mtima wake uli ngati khwekhwe, ndipo manja ake ali ngati maunyolo. Munthu amene amakondweretsa Mulungu adzathawa mkaziyo, koma mkaziyo adzakola munthu wochimwa.
27 Muparidzi anoti, “Tarira, izvi ndizvo zvandakawana: “Ndichisanganisa chimwe nechimwe kuti ndiwane marongerwo ezvinhu,
Mlaliki akunena kuti, “Taonani, chimene ndinachipeza ndi ichi: “Kuwonjezera chinthu china pa china kuti ndidziwe mmene zinthu zimachitikira,
28 pandakanga ndichiri kutsvaka asi ndisina chandinowana, ndakawana murume mumwe chete akarurama pakati pechiuru, asi handina kuwana mukadzi mumwe chete akarurama pakati pavo vose.
pamene ine ndinali kufufuzabe koma osapeza kanthu, ndinapeza munthu mmodzi wolungama pakati pa anthu 1,000, koma pakati pawo panalibepo mkazi mmodzi wolungama.
29 Chinhu ichi chete ndicho chandakawana chokuti: Mwari akaita vanhu vakarurama, asi vanhu vakaenda kundotsvaka mano mazhinji.”
Chokhacho chimene ndinachipeza ndi ichi: Mulungu analenga munthu, anamupatsa mtima wolungama, koma anthu anatsatira njira zawozawo zambirimbiri.”
