Jobho 11
1 Ipapo Zofari muNaamati akapindura akati:
Pamenepo Zofari wa ku Naama anayankha kuti,
2 “Mashoko aya ose haangapindurwi here? Ko, mutauri uyu anofanira kushayirwa mhosva here?
“Kodi mawu ambirimbiriwa nʼkukhala osayankhidwa? Kodi munthu woyankhulayankhulayu nʼkulungamitsidwa?
3 Ko, kubvotomoka kwako kunganyaradza vanhu here? Ko, pangashaya anokutsiura paunenge uchituka here?
Kodi anthu nʼkukhala chete atamva kubwebweta kwakoku? Kodi palibe wina amene adzakudzudzule pamene ukuyankhula zonyoza?
4 Iwe unoti kuna Mwari, ‘Zvandinotenda zvakarurama uye ndakachena pamberi penyu.’
Iwe ukunena kwa Mulungu kuti, ‘Zikhulupiriro zanga ndi zopanda zolakwika ndipo ndine wangwiro pamaso panu.’
5 Haiwa, ndinoda sei kuti dai Mwari ataura, kuti dai ashamisa hake muromo wake pamusoro pako,
Aa, nʼkanakonda Mulungu akanayankhula kuti Iye atsekule pakamwa pake kutsutsana nawe
6 uye akuzarurire zvakavanzika zvouchenjeri, nokuti uchenjeri hwechokwadi huri paviri. Uzive izvi: Mwari akatokanganwa kare zvimwe zvivi zvako.
ndi kukuwululira chinsinsi cha nzeru yake, pakuti nzeru yeniyeni ili ndi mbali ziwiri. Dziwa izi: Mulungu wayiwala machimo ako ena.
7 “Ko, unganzwisisa zvakavanzika zvaMwari here? Unganzwisisa panogumira Wamasimba Ose here?
“Kodi iwe ungathe kumvetsa zinsinsi za Mulungu? Kodi ungafufuze malire a nzeru za Wamphamvuzonse?
8 Zvakakwirira kupfuura matenga, iwe ungaiteiko? Zvakadzika kupfuura kudzika kwebwiro, iwe ungaziveiko? (Sheol h7585)
Zili kutali kupambana mayiko akumwamba, nanga ungachite chiyani? Ndi zakuya kupambana kuya kwa manda, nanga ungadziwe chiyani? (Sheol h7585)
9 Chiero chazvo chakareba kupfuura nyika uye zvakapamhama kupfuura gungwa.
Muyeso wa nzeru zake ndi wautali kupambana dziko lapansi ndipo ndi wopingasa kupambana nyanja.
10 “Kana iye akasvika akakupfigira mujeri uye akakoka dare remhosva, ndianiko angapikisana naye?
“Ngati Iye atabwera ndi kukutsekera mʼndende nakutengera ku bwalo la milandu, ndani angathe kumuletsa?
11 Zvirokwazvo anoziva vanhu vanonyengera; uye paanoona chakaipa, anoshaya hanya here?
Ndithudi, Mulungu amazindikira anthu achinyengo; akaona choyipa, kodi sachizindikira?
12 Asi munhu asina kuchenjera haangagoni kuva akangwara sezvo zvisingagoneki kuti mwana wembizi angaberekwa nomunhu.
Munthu wopanda nzeru sizingatheke kukhala wanzeru monganso mwana wa bulu wakuthengo sangasanduke munthu.
13 “Asi kana mwoyo wako ukazvipira kwaari, uye ukatambanudzira maoko ako kwaari,
“Koma ngati upereka mtima wako kwa Iye ndi kutambasulira manja ako kwa Iyeyo,
14 kana ukaisa kure chivi chiri muruoko rwako, uye ukasatendera chakaipa kugara mutende rako,
ngati utaya tchimo limene lili mʼdzanja lako ndi kusalola choyipa kuti chikhale mʼmoyo mwako,
15 ipapo uchasimudza chiso chako usina nyadzi, uchamira wakasimba uye usingatyi.
udzatukula mutu wako wosachita manyazi; udzayima chilili ndipo sudzachita mantha.
16 Zvirokwazvo uchakanganwa nhamo yako, uchangoirangarira semvura yakaerera.
Udzayiwala ndithu zowawa zako, zidzakhala ngati madzi amene apita kale.
17 Upenyu huchajeka kupfuura masikati makuru, uye rima richaita samangwanani.
Moyo wako udzawala kupambana usana, ndipo mdima udzakhala ngati mmawa.
18 Iwe uchagara zvakanaka, nokuti tariro iriko; ucharinga-ringa ugozorora murugare.
Udzalimba mtima popeza pali chiyembekezo; ndipo udzayangʼana mbali zonse ndi kugona mosatekeseka.
19 Uchavata hako pasi, pasina munhu anokuvhundutsa, uye vazhinji vachakumbira nyasha dzako.
Udzagona pansi, popanda wina wokuopseza ndipo ambiri adzakupempha kuti uwachitire chifundo.
20 Asi meso avakaipa achaneta, uye vachashayiwa kwokutizira; tariro yavo ichava yokufa.”
Koma anthu oyipa adzafuna thandizo osalipeza, ndipo adzasowa njira yothawirapo; chiyembekezo chawo chidzakhala imfa basi.”
