< Zvirevo 15 >
1 Mhinduro nyoro inodzora kutsamwa, asi shoko rinorwadza rinomutsa hasha.
Kuyankha kofatsa kumathetsa mkwiyo, koma mawu ozaza amautsa ukali.
2 Rurimi rwowakachenjera runobudisa zivo, asi muromo webenzi unodurura upenzi.
Munthu wanzeru amayankhula zinthu za nzeru, koma pakamwa pa zitsiru pamatulutsa za uchitsiru.
3 Meso aJehovha ari pose pose, achicherechedza vakaipa navakanaka.
Maso a Yehova ali ponseponse, amayangʼana pa oyipa ndi abwino omwe.
4 Rurimi runouyisa kuporesa ndirwo muti woupenyu, asi rurimi runonyengera runopwanya mweya.
Kuyankhula kodekha kuli ngati mtengo wopatsa moyo, koma kuyankhula kopotoka kumapweteka mtima.
5 Benzi rinoramba kurayira kwababa varo, asi ani naani anogamuchira kurayirwa anoratidza kungwara.
Chitsiru chimanyoza mwambo wa abambo ake, koma wochenjera amasamala chidzudzulo.
6 Imba yowakarurama ine pfuma zhinji, asi zvinowanikwa nowakaipa zvinomuunzira kutambudzika.
Munthu wolungama amakhala ndi chuma chambiri, zimene woyipa amapindula nazo zimamugwetsa mʼmavuto.
7 Miromo yavakachenjera inokusha zivo; asi mwoyo yamapenzi haidaro.
Pakamwa pa anthu anzeru pamafalitsa nzeru; koma mitima ya zitsiru sitero.
8 Jehovha anovenga chibayiro chowakaipa, asi munyengetero womunhu akarurama unomufadza.
Nsembe za anthu oyipa zimamunyansa Yehova, koma amakondwera ndi pemphero la anthu owona mtima.
9 Jehovha anovenga nzira yeakaipa, asi anoda vaya vanotevera kururama.
Ntchito za anthu oyipa zimamunyansa Yehova koma amakonda amene amafunafuna chilungamo.
10 Kurangwa kwakaomarara kwakamirira uyo anotsauka kubva panzira; uyo anovenga kudzorwa achafa.
Amene amasiya njira yabwino adzalangidwa koopsa. Odana ndi chidzudzulo adzafa.
11 Rufu nokuparadzwa zviri pachena pamberi paJehovha, ko, kuzoti mwoyo yavanhu! (Sheol )
Manda ndi chiwonongeko ndi zosabisika pamaso pa Yehova, nanji mitima ya anthu! (Sheol )
12 Mudadi anovenga kudzorwa; haangabvunzi vakachenjera.
Wonyoza sakonda kudzudzulidwa; iye sapita kwa anthu anzeru.
13 Mwoyo wakafara, unofadza chiso, asi mwoyo une shungu unopwanya mweya.
Mtima wokondwa umachititsa nkhope kukhala yachimwemwe, koma mtima wosweka umawawitsa moyo.
14 Mwoyo unonzvera unotsvaka ruzivo, asi muromo webenzi unodya upenzi.
Mtima wa munthu wozindikira zinthu umafunafuna nzeru, koma pakamwa pa zitsiru pamadya uchitsiru wawo.
15 Mazuva ose omunhu anotambudzika akaipa, asi mwoyo unofara une mutambo nguva dzose.
Munthu woponderezedwa masiku ake onse amakhala oyipa, koma mtima wachimwemwe umakhala pa chisangalalo nthawi zonse.
16 Zviri nani kuva nezvishoma uchitya Jehovha, pane kuva nepfuma zhinji namatambudziko.
Kuli bwino kukhala ndi zinthu pangʼono nʼkumaopa Yehova, kusiyana ndi kukhala ndi chuma chambiri uli pamavuto.
17 Zviri nani kuva nezvokudya zvomuriwo pane rudo, pane kuva nemhuru yakakodzwa pane ruvengo.
Kuli bwino kudyera ndiwo zamasamba pamene pali chikondi, kusiyana ndi kudyera nyama yangʼombe yonenepa pamene pali udani.
18 Munhu ane hasha anomutsa bopoto, asi munhu ane mwoyo murefu anonyaradza kukakavara.
Munthu wopsa mtima msanga amayambitsa mikangano, koma munthu woleza mtima amathetsa ndewu.
19 Nzira yesimbe yakasoswa neminzwa, asi nzira yavakarurama mugwagwa mukuru.
Njira ya munthu waulesi ndi yowirira ndi mtengo waminga, koma njira ya munthu wolungama ili ngati msewu waukulu.
20 Mwanakomana akachenjera anounzira baba vake mufaro, asi munhu benzi anozvidza mai vake.
Mwana wanzeru amakondweretsa abambo ake, koma mwana wopusa amanyoza amayi ake.
21 Upenzi hunofadza munhu anoshayiwa njere, asi munhu anonzwisisa anochengetedza nzira yakarurama.
Uchitsiru umakondweretsa munthu wopanda nzeru, koma munthu womvetsa zinthu amayenda mowongoka.
22 Urongwa hunoparara kana pasina vanopa mazano, asi vanopa mazano vakawanda hunobudirira.
Popanda uphungu zolinga zako munthu zimalephereka, koma pakakhala aphungu ambiri zolinga zimatheka.
23 Munhu anowana mufaro mukupa mhinduro yakanaka, uye rakanaka seiko shoko rinouya nenguva!
Munthu amakondwera ndi kuyankha koyenera, ndipo mawu onena pa nthawi yake ndi okoma.
24 Nzira youpenyu kumunhu akachenjera inokwidza kumusoro, ichimuchengetedza kuti asaenda muguva. (Sheol )
Munthu wanzeru amatsata njira yopita ku moyo kuti apewe malo okhala anthu akufa. (Sheol )
25 Jehovha anoparadza imba yomunhu anozvikudza, asi agochengeta miganhu yechirikadzi yakasimba.
Yehova amapasula nyumba ya munthu wonyada koma amasamalira malo a mkazi wamasiye.
26 Jehovha anovenga pfungwa dzowakaipa, asi dzavakachena dzinomufadza.
Maganizo a anthu oyipa amamunyansa Yehova, koma mawu a anthu oyera mtima amamusangalatsa.
27 Munhu anokara pfuma anouyisa kutambudzika kumhuri yake, asi anovenga fufuro achararama.
Munthu wofuna phindu mwachinyengo amavutitsa banja lake, koma wodana ndi ziphuphu adzakhala ndi moyo.
28 Mwoyo wokururama unoyera mhinduro dzawo, asi muromo woakaipa unodurura zvakaipa.
Munthu wolungama amaganizira za mmene ayankhire, koma pakamwa pa munthu woyipa pamatulutsa mawu oyipa.
29 Jehovha ari kure neakaipa, asi anonzwa munyengetero weakarurama.
Yehova amakhala kutali ndi anthu oyipa, koma amamva pemphero la anthu olungama.
30 Chiso chinobwinya chinofadza mwoyo, uye mashoko akanaka anopa utano kumapfupa.
Kuwala kwa maso kumasangalatsa mtima ndipo uthenga wabwino umalimbitsa munthu.
31 Uyo anoteerera kutsiura kunopa upenyu achagara pakati pavakachenjera.
Womvera mawu a chidzudzulo amene apatsa moyo adzakhala pakati pa anthu anzeru.
32 Uyo asina hanya nokurangwa anozvizvidza iye pachake, asi ani naani anogamuchira kurayira achawana kunzwisisa.
Amene amanyoza mwambo amadzinyoza yekha, koma womvera mawu a chidzudzulo amapeza nzeru zomvetsa zinthu.
33 Kutya Jehovha kunodzidzisa munhu uchenjeri, uye kuzvininipisa kunotanga, kukudzwa kwozotevera.
Kuopa Yehova kumaphunzitsa munthu nzeru, ndipo kudzichepetsa ndi ulemu chili patsogolo ndi kudzichepetsa.
