Zvirevo 1
1 Zvirevo zvaSoromoni mwanakomana waDhavhidhi, mambo weIsraeri:
Iyi ndi miyambi ya Solomoni mwana wa Davide, mfumu ya Israeli:
2 kuti uwane uchenjeri nokurayirwa; nokunzwisisa mashoko enjere;
Ndi yothandiza kuti munthu adziwe nzeru ndi malangizo; kuti amvetse mawu a matanthauzo ozama;
3 kuti uve noupenyu hwokuzvibata hune uchenjeri uchiita zvakarurama nokururamisira uye nokuenzanisira;
kuti alandire malangizo othandiza kuti achite zinthu mwanzeru, akhale wangwiro, wachilungamo ndiponso wosakondera.
4 kuti vasina mano vapiwe uchenjeri, jaya ripiwe ruzivo namano,
Ndi yothandiza munthu wamba kuti aphunzire nzeru za kuchenjera, achinyamata kudziwa zinthu bwino ndi kulingalira.
5 vakachenjera ngavanzwe uye vagowedzera pakudzidza kwavo, uye vanonzvera ngavawane kutungamirirwa,
Munthu wanzeru amvetse bwino miyamboyi kuti awonjezere kuphunzira kwake, ndi munthu womvetsa zinthu bwino apatepo luso,
6 kuti vanzwisise zvirevo nemifananidzo, mashoko nezvirahwe zvavakachenjera.
kuti azimvetsa miyambi ndi mafanizo, mawu a anthu anzeru ndi mikuluwiko.
7 Kutya Jehovha ndiwo mavambo ezivo, asi mapenzi anoshora uchenjeri nokurayirwa.
Kuopa Yehova ndiye chiyambi cha nzeru. Zitsiru zimanyoza nzeru ndi malangizo.
8 Mwanakomana wangu, teerera, kurayira kwababa vako, uye usarasa kudzidzisa kwamai vako.
Mwana wanga, mvera malangizo a abambo ako ndipo usakane mawu okuwongolera a amayi ako.
9 Zvichava chishongo chakanaka pamusoro wako nouketani hunoshongedza mutsipa wako.
Ali ngati sangamutu yokongola ya maluwa pamutu pako ndiponso ali ngati mkanda mʼkhosi mwako.
10 Mwanakomana wangu, kana vatadzi vachikukwezva, usabvuma zvavari kuda kuti uite.
Mwana wanga, ngati anthu oyipa afuna kukukopa usamawamvere.
11 Kana vakati, “Handei tose; ngativandirei munhu timuuraye; ngativandirei mweya usina mhosva;
Akadzati, “Tiye kuno; tikabisale kuti tiphe anthu, tikabisalire anthu osalakwa;
tiwameze amoyo ngati manda, ndi athunthu ngati anthu otsikira mʼdzenje. (Sheol h7585)
13 tichawana marudzi ose ezvinhu zvinokosha tigozadza dzimba dzedu nezvatichapamba;
Motero tidzapeza zinthu zosiyanasiyana zamtengowapatali ndi kudzaza nyumba zathu ndi zolanda;
14 isa zvinhu zvako pamwe chete nesu, tigova nechikwama chimwe chete,”
Bwera, chita nafe maere, ndipo tidzagawana chuma chathu tonse.”
15 mwanakomana wangu, usabvumirana navo, usaisa rutsoka panzira dzavo;
Mwana wanga, usayende nawo pamodzi, usatsagane nawo mʼnjira zawozo.
16 nokuti tsoka dzavo dzinomhanyira muchivi, vanokurumidza kundodeura ropa.
Iwowatu amangofuna zoyipa zokhazokha, amathamangira kukhetsa magazi.
17 Hazvibatsiri sei kutambanudza mumbure shiri dzose dzichinyatsoona!
Nʼkopanda phindu kutchera msampha mbalame zikuona!
18 Varume ava vanovandira ropa ravo vomene; vanozvivandira ivo pachavo!
Koma anthu amenewa amangobisalira miyoyo yawo yomwe; amangodzitchera okha msampha!
19 Aya ndiwo magumo avaya vanotsvaka pfuma nenzira yakaipa; inouraya vaya vanoiwana.
Awa ndiwo mathero a anthu opeza chuma mwankhanza; chumacho chimapha mwiniwake.
20 Uchenjeri hunodanidzira nenzwi guru mumugwagwa, hunokwidza inzwi rahwo pachivara;
Nzeru ikufuwula mu msewu, ikuyankhula mokweza mawu mʼmisika;
21 kumusoro kwemigwagwa ine ruzha hunodanidzira, pamasuo eguta hunotaura shoko rahwo huchiti:
ikufuwula pa mphambano ya misewu, ikuyankhula pa zipata za mzinda kuti,
22 “Kusvikira riniko imi vasina mano, muchingoda kugara musina mano? Kusvikira riniko vaseki vachifarira kuseka, uye mapenzi achivenga zivo?
“Kodi inu anthu osachangamukanu, mudzakondwera ndi kusachangamuka mpaka liti? Nanga anthu onyogodola adzakondabe kunyogodola mpaka liti? Kapena opusa adzadana ndi nzeru mpaka liti?
23 Dai makateerera kutsiura kwangu, ndingadai ndakadurura mwoyo wangu kwamuri uye ndakazivisa pfungwa dzangu kwamuri.
Tamverani mawu anga a chidzudzulo. Ine ndikukuwuzani maganizo anga ndi kukudziwitsani mawu anga.
24 Asi sezvo makandiramba pandakakudanai uye pasina kana mumwe akateerera pandakatambanudza ruoko rwangu,
Popeza ndinakuyitanani koma inu munakana kumvera. Ndinayesa kukuthandizani koma panalibe amene anasamala.
25 sezvo makashaya hanya nokurayira kwangu, uye mukasagamuchira kutsiura kwangu,
Uphungu wanga munawunyoza. Kudzudzula kwanga simunakusamale.
26 iniwo ndichaseka panguva yenjodzi yenyu; ndichaseka dambudziko parichakusvikirai,
Ndiye inenso ndidzakusekani mukadzakhala mʼmavuto; ndidzakunyogodolani chikadzakugwerani chimene mumachiopacho.
27 dambudziko parichakukundai sedutu, njodzi paichavhuvhuta pamusoro penyu sechamupupuri, nhamo namatambudziko pazvichakukundai.
Chiwonongeko chikadzakugwerani ngati namondwe, tsoka likadzakufikirani ngati kamvuluvulu, mavuto ndi masautso akadzakugwerani.
28 “Ipapo vachadana kwandiri asi ini handingavapinduri; vachanditsvaka asi havangandiwani.
“Tsono mudzandiyitana koma sindidzayankha; mudzandifunafuna, koma simudzandipeza.
29 Sezvo vakavenga zivo uye vakasasarudza kutya Jehovha,
Popeza iwo anadana ndi chidziwitso ndipo sanasankhe kuopa Yehova,
30 sezvo vasina kugamuchira yambiro yangu, uye vakashora kutsiura kwangu,
popeza iwo sanasamale malangizo anga ndipo ananyoza chidzudzulo changa.
31 vachadya zvibereko zvenzira dzavo uye vachazadzwa nezvibereko zvemano avo.
Tsono adzadya zipatso zoyenera mayendedwe awo ndi kukhuta ndi ntchito zimene anachita kwa ena.
32 Nokuti kusateerera kwavasina mano kuchavaurayisa, uye kushaya hanya kwamapenzi kuchavaparadza;
Pakuti anthu osachangamuka amaphedwa chifukwa cha kusochera kwawo, ndipo zitsiru zimadziwononga zokha chifukwa cha mphwayi zawo.
33 asi ani naani achanditeerera achagara murugare, uye achagara akasununguka, asingatyi kuparadzwa.”
Koma aliyense wondimvera adzakhala mwa bata; adzakhala mosatekeseka posaopa chilichonse.”
