< Zvirevo 21 >

1 Mwoyo wamambo uri muruoko rwaJehovha; anouendesa kwaanoda sehova dzemvura.
Mtima wa mfumu uli ngati mtsinje wamadzi mʼdzanja la Yehova; Iye amautsongolera pa chilichonse chimene akufuna.
2 Nzira dzose dzomunhu dzinoita sedzakarurama kwaari, asi Jehovha anoyera mwoyo pachikero.
Makhalidwe a munthu amaoneka olungama kwa mwini wakeyo, koma Yehova ndiye amayesa mtima wake.
3 Kuita zvakarurama nokururamisira zvinonyanya kufadza Jehovha kupfuura chibayiro.
Za chilungamo ndi zolondola ndi zomwe zimakondweretsa Yehova kuposa kupereka nsembe.
4 Meso ana manyawi nomwoyo unozvikudza, mwenje woakaipa, ndizvo chivi!
Maso odzikuza ndi mtima wonyada, zimatsogolera anthu oyipa ngati nyale nʼchifukwa chake amachimwa.
5 Urongwa hwavanoshingaira hunouyisa zvizhinji, sezvo, zvirokwazvo, kukurumidzisa kuchiuyisa urombo.
Zolinga za munthu wakhama zimachulukitsa zinthu zake; koma aliyense wochita zinthu mofulumira amadzakhala wosauka.
6 Pfuma yakaunganidzwa norurimi runoreva nhema imhute inopupurutswa uye muteyo wakaipisisa.
Chuma chochipeza ndi mawu onyenga ndi chosakhalitsa ndipo chimakola anthu mu msampha wa imfa.
7 Kumanikidza kwavakaipa kuchavazvuzvurudzira kure, nokuti vanoramba kuita zvakarurama.
Chiwawa cha anthu oyipa chidzawawononga, pakuti iwo amakana kuchita zolungama.
8 Nzira yeane mhosva yakaminama, asi kufamba kwaasina mhosva kwakarurama.
Njira ya munthu wolakwa ndi yokhotakhota, koma makhalidwe a munthu wosalakwa ndi olungama.
9 Zviri nani kugara pakona yedenga remba, pano kugara mumba nomudzimai anokakavara.
Nʼkwabwino kukhala wekha pa ngodya ya denga la nyumba, kuposa kukhala mʼnyumba pamodzi ndi mkazi wolongolola.
10 Munhu akaipa anoshuvira zvakaipa; muvakidzani wake haawani tsitsi kubva kwaari.
Munthu woyipa amalakalaka zoyipa; sachitira chifundo mnansi wake wovutika.
11 Kana museki akarangwa vasina mano vanowana uchenjeri; kana munhu akachenjera akarayirwa anowana zivo.
Munthu wonyoza akalangidwa, anthu opusa amapeza nzeru; koma munthu wanzeru akalangizidwa, amapeza chidziwitso.
12 Iye Akarurama anocherechedza imba yeakaipa, uye anoisa akaipa kukuparadzwa.
Zolingalira za munthu woyipa nʼzosabisika pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo Iye adzawononga woyipayo.
13 Kana munhu akadzivira nzeve dzake kumurombo, naiyewo achachema uye hapana achamunzwa.
Amene atsekera mʼkhutu mwake wosauka akamalira, nayenso adzalira koma palibe adzamuyankhe.
14 Chipo chinopiwa muchivande chinonyaradza hasha, uye fufuro yakavigwa mujasi inonyaradza kutsamwa kukuru.
Mphatso yoperekedwa mseri imathetsa mkwiyo, ndipo chiphuphu choperekedwa mobisa chimathetsa mphamvu ya ukali woopsa.
15 Kana kururamisira kwaitwa, kunouyisa mufaro kuna vakarurama, asi kunovhundutsa vaiti vezvakaipa.
Chilungamo chikachitika anthu olungama amasangalala, koma anthu oyipa amaopsedwa nazo.
16 Munhu anorasika panzira yokunzwisisa achandozororera muungano yavakafa.
Munthu amene amachoka pa njira ya anthu anzeru adzapezeka mʼgulu la anthu akufa.
17 Uyo anofarira mafaro achava murombo; ani naani anofarira waini namafuta haazombopfumi.
Aliyense wokonda zisangalalo adzasanduka mʼmphawi, ndipo wokonda vinyo ndi mafuta sadzalemera.
18 Akaipa achava dzikinuro yavakarurama, uye vasina kutendeka vachava dzikinuro yaakatendeka.
Anthu oyipa adzakhala chowombolera cha anthu olungama ndipo osakhulupirika chowombolera anthu olungama mtima.
19 Zviri nani kugara mugwenga, pano kugara nomudzimai anokakavara uye ane hasha.
Nʼkwabwino kukhala mʼchipululu kuposa kukhala ndi mkazi wolongolola ndi wopsa mtima msanga.
20 Mumba mowakachenjera mune zvokudya zvakaisvonaka zvakawanda namafuta, asi benzi rinodya zvose zvarinazvo.
Munthu wanzeru samwaza chuma chake, koma wopusa amachiwononga.
21 Uyo anotevera kururama norudo anowana upenyu, nokubudirira norukudzo.
Amene amatsata chilungamo ndi kukhulupirika, amapeza moyo ndi ulemerero.
22 Munhu akachenjera anorwisa guta ravane simba agoputsa nhare dzaro dzavanovimba nadzo.
Munthu wanzeru amagonjetsa mzinda wa anthu amphamvu ndi kugwetsa linga limene iwo amalidalira.
23 Uyo anorinda muromo wake norurimi rwake anozvidzivirira kubva panjodzi.
Amene amagwira pakamwa pake ndi lilime lake sapeza mavuto.
24 Munhu anozvikudza uye ana manyawi “Mudadi” ndiro zita rake; anoita zvinhu namanyawi uye nokuzvikudza.
Munthu wonyada ndi wodzikuza amamutcha, “Mnyodoli,” iye amachita zinthu modzitama kwambiri.
25 Kushuva kwesimbe kunova rufu rwake, nokuti maoko ake anoramba kushanda.
Chilakolako cha munthu waulesi chidzamupha yekha chifukwa manja ake amangokhala goba osagwira ntchito.
26 Muswere wose wezuva anoramba achida zvimwe, asi akarurama anopa asinganyimi.
Tsiku lonse anthu oyipa amasirira zambiri, koma anthu olungama amapereka mowolowamanja.
27 Chibayiro chowakaipa chinonyangadza, zvikuru sei kana akauya nacho nomufungo wakaipa!
Nsembe ya anthu oyipa imamunyansa Yehova, nanji akayipereka ndi cholinga choyipa!
28 Chapupu chenhema chichaparara, uye ani naani anoteerera kwaari achaparadzwa nokusingaperi.
Mboni yonama idzawonongeka, koma mawu a munthu wakumva adzakhala nthawi zonse.
29 Munhu akaipa ane chiso chisinganyari, asi munhu akarurama anofunga pamusoro penzira dzake.
Munthu woyipa amafuna kudzionetsa ngati wolimba mtima, koma munthu wowongoka amaganizira njira zake.
30 Hapana uchenjeri kana njere kana urongwa hungabudirira huchipikisana naJehovha.
Palibe nzeru, palibe kumvetsa bwino, palibenso uphungu, zimene zingapambane Yehova.
31 Bhiza rinogadzirirwa zuva rokurwa, asi kukunda kunobva kuna Jehovha.
Kavalo amamukonzera tsiku la nkhondo, koma ndi Yehova amene amapambanitsa.
