Jobho 13

1 “Meso angu akaona izvi zvose, nzeve dzangu dzakanzwa dzikazvinzwisisa.

“Amehlo ami asekubonile konke lokhu, indlebe zami zikuzwile zakuqedisisa lokhu.

2 Zvamunoziva imi, neniwo ndinozviziva; handisi muduku kwamuri.

Elikwaziyo lina lami ngiyakwazi; kalingcono ngalutho kulami.

3 Asi ndinoshuva kutaura naWamasimba Ose uye ndigozvidavirira nyaya yangu kuna Mwari.

Kodwa ngiloyisa ukukhuluma loSomandla, ngiphikisane loNkulunkulu ngendaba yami.

4 Kunyange zvakadaro, imi munondizora nhema; muri varapi vasina maturo, imi mose!

Kodwa lina lingigcona ngamanga; lonke lizinyanga ezingelamsebenzi!

5 Haiwa, dai bedzi mainyarara henyu! Nokuti hungava uchenjeri kwamuri.

Thulani lithi zwi lonke! Lokho kungaba yikuhlakanipha kini.

6 Chinzwai zvino kuzvidavirira kwangu; teererai munzwe kudemba kwemiromo yangu.

Zwanini-ke manje engikutshoyo; lalelani ukuncenga kwezindebe zami.

7 Ko, mungataura zvakaipa muchimiririra Mwari here? Ko, mungataura zvinonyengera muchiti matumwa naye here?

Lingakhuluma okubi limele uNkulunkulu na? Lingamkhulumela inkohliso na?

8 Mungamuitira rusaruro here? Mungamiririra Mwari here?

Limtshengisa ukuthi liyabandlulula yini? Yini elimkhulumelayo uNkulunkulu akutshoyo?

9 Ko, zvingabuda zvakanaka here kana akakuedzai? Ko, mungamunyengera sokunyengera kwamunoita vanhu here?

Kungalilungela yini nxa engalihlola? Kambe lingamkhohlisa njengoba lingakhohlisa abantu na?

10 Zvirokwazvo iye angakutsiurai kana mukaratidza rusaruro muchivande.

Ngempela angaligcona nxa lingabe litshengisa ukubandlulula.

11 Ko, kubwinya kwake hakungakutyisei here? Ko, kutyisa kwake hakungawiri pamusoro penyu here?

Inkazimulo yakhe ingezake ilethuse na? Ukwesabeka kwakhe kungezake kulehlele na?

12 Mashoko enyu anotendwa itsumo dzamadota; nhare dzenyu inhare dzevhu.

Izitsho zenu ziyizaga zomlotha; lezivikelo zenu yizivikelo zebumba kuphela.

13 “Nyararai uye regai nditaure; ipapo chinouya kwandiri ngachiuye hacho.

Thulani ngikhulume mina; kungivelele loba kuyini okuvelayo.

14 Ko, ndinozviisirei munjodzi ndichibatira upenyu hwangu mumaoko angu?

Ngizifakelani engozini na ngiphathe impilo yami ezandleni zami?

15 Kunyange akandiuraya hake, asi ini ndichavimba naye; zvirokwazvo ndichadzivirira nzira dzangu pamberi pake.

Lanxa engangibulala kodwa ngizakwala ngimethemba; ngizazivikela izindlela zami phambi kwakhe.

16 Zvirokwazvo, uku ndiko kuchava kuponeswa kwangu, nokuti hakuna munhu asina umwari achasvika pamberi pake!

Ngeqiniso lokhu kuzangihlenga, ngoba kakho umuntu ongakholwayo ongasondela kuye!

17 Teereresai kumashoko angu, nzeve dzenyu ngadzigamuchire zvandinoreva.

Ake lilalele kuhle amazwi ami; vulani indlebe zenu lizwe engikutshoyo.

18 Zvino ndagadzirisa nyaya yangu, ndinoziva kuti ndichashayirwa mhosva.

Manje-ke njengoba sengiyilungisile indaba yami, ngiyabona ukuthi ngizakhululwa.

19 Pane angagona kundipa mhaka here? Kana aripo, ndichanyarara ndigofa hangu.

Ngubani kambe ongangethesa icala? Nxa ekhona, ngizathula ngife.

20 “Haiwa Mwari, nditsidzirei hangu zvinhu zviviri izvi. Uye ipapo handingavandi pamberi penyu.

Akungiphe lezizinto ezimbili nje, Oh Nkulunkulu, lapho-ke angiyikukucatshela:

21 Bvisai ruoko rwenyu rwuve kure neni, uye murege kundivhundutsa nokutyisa kwenyu.

Sisusele khatshana lami isandla sakho, ukhawule ukungethusa ngokwesabeka kwakho.

22 Ipapo mukandidana ndichadavira. Kana kuti murege nditaure, imi mugopindura.

Ubusungibizela ecaleni, ngizaphendula, kumbe ungiyekele ngikhulume, lawe uphendule.

23 Zvivi zvandakaita nezvikanganiso zvangu zvinganiko? Ndiratidzei kudarika kwangu nechivi changu.

Sengenze iziphambeko lezono ezinganani na? Ngitshengisa isiphambeko sami lesono sami.

24 Munovanzireiko chiso chenyu muchindiona somuvengi wenyu?

Kungani ufihla ubuso bakho ungithathe njengesitha sakho?

25 Ko, muchatambudza shizha rinopeperetswa nemhepo here? Ko, muchadzingana nehundi yakaoma here?

Uzahluphana lehlamvu eliphetshulwa ngumoya na? Uzaxotshana lomule owomileyo na?

26 Nokuti munonyora zvinhu zvinovava pamusoro pangu, uye munondigarisa nhaka yezvivi zvoujaya hwangu.

Ngoba ubhala izinto ezibuhlungu ngami ungenze ngivune izono zobutsha bami.

27 Munosunga tsoka dzangu nezvisungo; munocherechedza nzira dzangu dzose nokuisa mutaro panotsika tsoka dzangu.

Ukhina inyawo zami ngezibopho; ulandelela zonke izindlela zami ngokudweba uphawu ezinyathelweni zezinyawo zami.

28 “Saizvozvo munhu anopera kufanana nechinhu chakaora, senguo yakadyiwa nezvipfukuto.

Yikho-ke umuntu ecikizeka njengento ebolileyo, njengesigqoko esidliwe yinondo.”
