< Zvirevo 7 >
1 Mwanakomana wangu, chengeta mashoko angu ugoviga mirayiro yangu mauri.
Mwana wanga, mvera mawu anga; usunge bwino malamulo angawa.
2 Chengeta mirayiro yangu ugorarama; uchengete dzidziso dzangu semboni yeziso rako.
Utsate malamulo anga ndipo udzakhala ndi moyo; samala malangizo angawa monga uchitira ndi maso ako.
3 Uzvisungirire paminwe yako; uzvinyore pahwendefa yomwoyo wako.
Uchite ngati wawamangirira pa zala zako, ndiponso ngati kuti wawalemba pa mtima pako.
4 Uti kuuchenjeri, “Uri hanzvadzi yangu,” uye uti kunzwisisa ndiyo hama yako;
Nzeru uyiwuze kuti, “Iwe ndiwe mlongo wanga,” ndipo khalidwe lomvetsa bwino zinthu ulitchule kuti, “Bwenzi langa lapamtima.”
5 zvichakuchengeta kure nomukadzi chifeve; kubva pamudzimai asingazvibati anokwezva namashoko ake.
Zidzakuteteza kwa mkazi wachigololo ndiponso zidzakuthandiza kusamvera mawu oshashalika a mkazi wachilendo.
6 Napawindo remba yangu ndakatarira panze nomumagirazi.
Tsiku lina pa zenera la nyumba yanga ndinasuzumira pa zenera.
7 Ndakaona pakati pavasina mano ndikacherechedza pakati pamajaya, rimwe jaya rakanga risina njere.
Ndinaona pakati pa anthu opusa, pakati pa anyamata, mnyamata wina wopanda nzeru.
8 Rakanga richidzika nomugwagwa pedyo nepakona yomukadzi uya, richifamba rakananga kumba kwake,
Iye ankayenda njira yodutsa pafupi ndi nyumba ya mkaziyo, kuyenda molunjika nyumba ya mkaziyo.
9 panguva yorubvunzavaeni, zuva ravira, kunze kwosviba.
Inali nthawi yachisisira madzulo, nthawi ya usiku, kuli mdima.
10 Ipapo mukadzi akabuda kuzosangana naye, akapfeka sechifeve uye azere nounyengeri.
Ndipo mkaziyo anadzakumana naye, atavala ngati munthu wachiwerewere wa mtima wonyenga.
11 Anotaura noruzha uye anozvikudza, tsoka dzake hadzigari pamba;
(Mkaziyo ndi wolongolola ndiponso nkhutukumve, iye ndi wosakhazikika pa khomo.
12 imwe nguva ari munzira, imwe nguva ari pazvivara. Anorindira pamakona ose.
Mwina umupeza pa msewu, mwina umupeza pa msika, ndipo amadikirira munthu pa mphambano iliyonse).
13 Akamubata ndokumutsvoda, uye nechiso chisina nyadzi akati:
Tsono amagwira mnyamatayo ndi kupsompsona ndi nkhope yake yopanda manyazi amamuwuza kuti,
14 “Ndine zvipiriso zvokuwadzana kumba kwangu; nhasi ndazadzisa mhiko dzangu.
“Ndinayenera kupereka nsembe zachiyanjano. Lero ndakwaniritsa malumbiro anga.
15 Saka ndauya kuzosangana newe; ndanga ndichikutsvaka, zvino ndazokuwana!
Choncho ndinabwera kudzakumana nawe; ndinkakufunafuna ndipo ndakupeza!
16 Ndawaridza mubhedha wangu machira ane mavara, anobva kuIjipiti.
Pa bedi panga ndayalapo nsalu zosalala zokongola zochokera ku Igupto.
17 Ndasasa zvinonhuhwira pamubhedha wangu, zvinoti: mura, gavakava nesinamoni.
Pa bedi panga ndawazapo zonunkhira za mure, mafuta onunkhira a aloe ndi sinamoni.
18 Uya, tinwe tigute norudo kusvikira mangwanani; ngatifare zvedu norudo!
Bwera, tiye tikhale malo amodzi kukondwerera chikondi mpaka mmawa; tiye tisangalatsane mwachikondi!
19 Murume wangu haako kumba, akafamba rwendo rurefu.
Mwamuna wanga kulibe ku nyumbako; wapita ulendo wautali:
20 Akatakura homwe yake izere nemari uye haangadzoki kumba kusvikira pajenaguru.”
Anatenga thumba la ndalama ndipo adzabwera ku nyumba mwezi ukakhwima.”
21 Namashoko okunyengetedza akamutsausa; akamukwezva nokutaura kwake kunonyengera.
Ndi mawu ake onyengerera amamukakamiza mnyamatayo; amukopa ndi mawu ake oshashalika.
22 Pakarepo akamutevera senzombe inoenda kundobayiwa, senondo inopinda mumusungo,
Nthawi yomweyo chitsiru chimamutsatira mkaziyo ngati ngʼombe yopita kukaphedwa, monga momwe mbawala ikodwera mu msampha,
23 kusvikira museve wabaya chiropa chake, seshiri inokurumidza kupinda muugombe, asingazivi kuti zvichamuurayisa.
mpaka muvi utalasa chiwindi chake, chimakhala ngati mbalame yothamangira mʼkhwekhwe, osadziwa kuti moyo wake uwonongeka.
24 Saka zvino, vanakomana vangu, teererai kwandiri; nyatsoteererai zvandinotaura.
Tsono ana inu, ndimvereni; mvetsetsani zimene ndikunena.
25 Usarega mwoyo wako uchitsaukira kunzira dzake, kana kurasikira pamakwara ake.
Musatengeke mtima ndi njira za mkazi ameneyu; musasochere potsata njira zake.
26 Vazhinji vakakuvadzwa naye vakawisirwa pasi; vaakauraya vakawanda kwazvo.
Paja iye anagwetsa anthu ambiri; wapha gulu lalikulu la anthu.
27 Imba yake mugwagwa mukuru unoenda kuguva, uchitungamirira kumakamuri orufu. (Sheol )
Nyumba yake ndi njira yopita ku manda, yotsikira ku malo a anthu akufa. (Sheol )
