Zvirevo 5
1 Mwanakomana wangu, nyatsoteerera kuuchenjeri hwangu, teereresa kumashoko angu oungwaru,
Ndodana yami, lalela inhlakanipho yami, beka indlebe yakho ekuqedisiseni kwami,
2 kuti ugare wakachengeta kungwara uye kuti miromo yako ichengetedze zivo.
ukuze uqaphele ingqondo, lendebe zakho zigcine ulwazi.
3 Nokuti miromo yomukadzi chifeve inodonha uchi, nomutauriro wake unotedza kupfuura mafuta;
Ngoba indebe zowesifazana wemzini zithonta uluju, lomlomo wakhe ubutshelezi kulamafutha.
4 asi pakupedzisira anovava senduru, anopinza somunondo unocheka namativi ose.
Kodwa ukucina kwakhe kuyababa njengomhlonyane, kubukhali njengenkemba esika nhlangothi mbili.
Inyawo zakhe zehlela ekufeni; izinyathelo zakhe zibambelela esihogweni. (Sheol h7585)
6 Haafungi pamusoro penzira youpenyu; nzira dzake dzakaminama, asi iye haazvizivi.
Hlezi ulinganise indlela yempilo, imikhondo yakhe iyazulazula, kananzeleli.
7 Saka zvino, vanakomana vangu, nditeererei; musatsauka pane zvandinotaura.
Ngakho-ke, bantwana, ngilalelani, lingaphambuki emazwini omlomo wami.
8 Fambai nenzira iri kure naye, musasvika pedyo nomusuo wemba yake,
Dedisela indlela yakho khatshana laye, ungasondeli emnyango wendlu yakhe;
9 kuti murege kupa vamwe zvakanaka zvesimba renyu, uye namakore enyu kuno uyo ane utsinye,
hlezi unikele udumo lwakho kwabanye, leminyaka yakho kolesihluku;
10 kuti vatorwa varege kudya upfumi hwenyu, uye kushanda kwenyu nesimba kurege kupfumisa imba yomumwe munhu.
hlezi abezizwe bazisuthise ngamandla akho, lemitshikatshika yakho ibe sendlini yowezizweni;
11 Pakupedzisira kwoupenyu hwako uchagomera, kana nyama nomuviri wako zvaparadzwa.
njalo ububule ekupheleni kwakho, lapho inyama yakho lomzimba wakho sekudliwe;
12 Uchazoti, “Mavengero andaiita kurayirwa! Mashorero aiita mwoyo wangu kudzorwa!
njalo uthi: Ngikuzonde njani ukulaywa, lenhliziyo yami yadelela ukukhuzwa!
13 Ndakanga ndisingateereri vadzidzisi vangu, kana kunzwa varairidzi vangu.
Kangizwanga-ke ilizwi labafundisi bami; kangibekanga indlebe zami kwabangifundisayo!
14 Ndasvika pakuparara chaiko pakati peungano yose.”
Ngaphosa ngaba ebubini bonke phakathi kwebandla lenhlangano.
15 Inwa mvura pachirongo chako chaicho, mvura inoerera patsime rako chairo.
Natha amanzi emgodini wakho, lemifula ephuma phakathi komthombo wakho.
16 Ko, zvitubu zvako zvinofanira kuerera mumigwagwa here; nzizi dzako dzemvura pazvivara?
Imithombo yakho ichitheke phandle, izifula zamanzi emidangeni.
17 Ngadzive dzako woga, hadzitombofaniri kugoveranwa navatorwa.
Kakube ngokwakho wedwa, kungabi ngokwabezizweni kanye lawe.
18 Tsime rako ngariropafadzwe, uye ufadzwe nomudzimai woujaya hwako.
Umthombo wakho kawubusiswe; uthokoze ngomfazi wobutsha bakho;
19 Sehadzi yengururu inofadza, nehadzi yenondo yakanaka, mazamu ake ngaakufadze nguva dzose, ugare uchigutswa norudo rwake.
impala ethandekayo kakhulu, legogo elibukekayo; amabele akhe kawakusuthise sonke isikhathi, uzule othandweni lwakhe kokuphela.
20 Unosungirweiko, mwanakomana wangu, nomukadzi chifeve? Unombundikirireiko chipfuva chomukadzi womumwe murume?
Kungani-ke, ndodana yami, uzule kowesifazana wemzini, ugone isifuba sowemzini?
21 Nokuti nzira dzomunhu dziri pachena pamberi paJehovha, uye anoongorora nzira dzake dzose.
Ngoba indlela zomuntu ziphambi kwamehlo eNkosi; njalo iyalinganisa yonke imikhondo yakhe.
22 Zviito zvakaipa zvomunhu akaipa zvichamusunga; tambo dzechivi chake dzichamubata iye kwazvo.
Ezakhe iziphambeko zizabamba omubi, abanjwe zintambo zesono sakhe.
23 Achafa nokuda kwokushayiwa kuzvibata kwake, atsauswa noupenzi hwake hukuru.
Yena uzakufa ngokungalaywa, lebukhulwini bobuthutha bakhe uzaduha.
