< Zvirevo 8 >
1 Ko, uchenjeri hahudanidziri here? Kunzwisisa hakusimudziri inzwi rako here?
Kodi nzeru sikuyitana? Kodi nzeru yomvetsa zinthu sinakweze mawu ake?
2 Panzvimbo dzakakwirira panzira, pamharadzano dzenzira, ndipo pahumire;
Nzeru imayima pa zitunda mʼmbali mwa njira, imayima pa mphambano ya misewu.
3 parutivi rwamasuo okupinda muguta, pamikova, hunodanidzirisa huchiti,
Imafuwula pafupi ndi zipata zolowera mu mzinda, pa makomo olowera imafuwula kuti,
4 “Kwamuri, imi varume, ndinodanidzira; ndinosimudzira inzwi rangu kuvanhu vose.
Inu anthu, ndikuyitana inu; ndikuyitanatu anthu onse.
5 Imi vasina mano, wanai uchenjeri; imi mapenzi, wanai kunzwisisa.
Inu amene simudziwa kanthunu khalani ochenjera; inu amene ndi opusa, khalani ndi mtima womvetsa zinthu.
6 Teererai, nokuti ndine zvinhu zvinokosha zvokutaura; ndinozarura muromo wangu kuti nditaure zvakarurama.
Mverani, pakuti ndikukuwuzani zinthu zofunika kwambiri; ndatsekula pakamwa panga ndipo payankhula zolungama.
7 Muromo wangu unotaura zvokwadi, nokuti miromo yangu inovenga zvakaipa.
Pakamwa panga pamayankhula zoona ndimanyansidwa ndi kuyankhula zoyipa.
8 Mashoko ose omuromo wangu akarurama; hapana kana rimwe rakakombama kana rakaipa.
Mawu onse a pakamwa panga ndi olungama; mʼmawu angawo mulibe zokhotakhota kapena zopotoka.
9 Kune ane njere ose zvawo akarurama, akarurama kuna avo vane zivo.
Kwa anthu ozindikira, mawu anga onse ndi woona; kwa anthu amene ali ndi nzeru zomvetsa zinthu, mawu angawo ndi okhoza.
10 Sarudza kurayira kwangu panzvimbo yesirivha, ruzivo panzvimbo yegoridhe rakaisvonaka,
Landirani malangizo anga mʼmalo mwa siliva, nzeru zomvetsa zinthu mʼmalo mwa golide wabwino.
11 nokuti uchenjeri hunokosha kupfuura marubhi, uye hapana chaungada chingaenzaniswa nahwo.
Paja nzeru ndi yabwino kwambiri kuposa miyala yamtengowapatali, ndipo zonse zimene ungazifune sizingafanane ndi nzeru.
12 “Ini, uchenjeri ndinogara pamwe chete navakachenjera; ndine ruzivo nenjere.
Ine nzeru, ndimakhala pamodzi ndi kuchenjera. Ine ndimadziwa zinthu ndiponso ndimalingalira zinthu bwino.
13 Kutya Jehovha ndiko kuvenga zvakaipa; ndinovenga kuzvikudza namanyawi, maitiro akaipa nokutaura kunonyangadza.
Kuopa Yehova ndiko kudana ndi zoyipa. Ine ndimadana ndi kunyada, kudzitama, kuchita zoyipa, ndiponso kuyankhula zonyenga.
14 Zano nokutonga kwakanaka ndezvangu; ndine kunzwisisa nesimba.
Ndine mwini uphungu ndi maganizo abwino; ndili ndi nzeru yomvetsa zinthu ndiponso mphamvu.
15 Madzimambo anobata ushe neni uye vatongi vanodzika mirayiro yakarurama;
Ndine amene ndimathandiza mafumu kulamulira. Ndimawathandiza olamulira kukhazikitsa malamulo olungama.
16 machinda anofambisa ushe neni, navakuru vose vanotonga panyika.
Ndine amene ndimathandiza akalonga polamula. Ndinenso amene ndimathandiza akuluakulu onse kulamulira bwino dziko.
17 Ndinoda avo vanondida, uye vaya vanonditsvaka vanondiwana.
Ndimakonda amene amandikonda, ndipo amene amandifunafuna amandipeza.
18 Pfuma nokukudzwa zvineni, upfumi hunogara nokururama.
Ine ndili ndi chuma ndi ulemu, chuma ndi kupindula pa ntchito kokhazikika.
19 Chibereko changu chakanaka kupfuura goridhe rakaisvonaka; zvandinobereka zvinopfuura sirivha yakaisvonaka.
Chipatso changa ndi chabwino kuposa golide, ngakhale golide wosalala; zimene ine ndimabereka zimaposa siliva wabwino kwambiri.
20 Ndinofamba munzira dzokururama, pamakwara okururamisira,
Ndimachita zinthu zolungama. Ine sindipatuka mʼnjira za chilungamo.
21 ndichipa upfumi kuna avo vanondida, uye ndichiita kuti matura avo azare.
Ndimapereka chuma kwa amene amandikonda ndi kudzaza nyumba zawo zosungiramo chuma.
22 “Jehovha akandibudisa sebasa rake rokutanga pamabasa ake, kutangira mabasa ake akare;
“Yehova anandilenga ine nzeru monga ntchito yake yoyamba. Mwa ntchito zake zakalekale yoyamba ndinali ine.
23 ndakagadzwa kubva pakusingaperi, kubva pakutanga, nyika isati yavapo.
Ndinapangidwa kalekalelo, pachiyambi penipeni dziko lapansi lisanalengedwe.
24 Makungwa asati avapo, ndakaberekwa, pasati pava nezvitubu zvine mvura zhinji;
Nyanja, akasupe odzaza ndi madzi, zonsezi kulibe pamene ine ndinkabadwa.
25 makomo asati aiswa munzvimbo dzawo, zvikomo zvisati zvavapo, ndakaberekwa,
Mapiri asanakhazikitsidwe pa malo awo, mapiri angʼonoangʼono asanakhalepo, ine ndinali nditabadwa kale,
26 asati aita nyika neminda kana guruva ripi zvaro renyika.
lisanalengedwe dziko lapansi ndi minda yake; lisanalengedwe dothi loyamba la dziko lapansi.
27 Ndakanga ndiripo paakaisa matenga munzvimbo dzawo, paakaita denderedzwa pamusoro pamakungwa,
Ine ndinalipo pamene Yehova ankakhazikitsa mlengalenga, pamene ankalemba malire a nyanja yozama,
28 paakaita makore kudenga uye paakasimbisa zvitubu zvamakungwa,
pamene anakhazikitsa mitambo ya mlengalenga ndi kukhazikitsa akasupe a madzi ozama,
29 paakapa gungwa miganhu yaro kuti mvura dzirege kudarika zvaakarayira, uye paakateya nheyo dzenyika.
pamene anayikira nyanja malire kuti madzi asadutse malirewo, ndiponso pamene ankayika malire a dziko lapansi.
30 Ipapo ndini ndaiva mhizha parutivi rwake. Ndaigara ndichifara zuva nezuva, ndichifara nguva dzose pamberi pake,
Tsono ine ndinali pambali pake ngati mmisiri; ndikumukondweretsa tsiku ndi tsiku, kusangalala nthawi zonse pamaso pake.
31 ndichifadzwa nenyika yake yose uye ndichifadzwa navanhu vose.
Ndinkasangalala ndi dziko lake lonse ndiponso kumakondwera nawo anthu onse.”
32 “Saka zvino, vanakomana vangu, teererai kwandiri; vakaropafadzwa avo vanochengeta nzira dzangu.
“Ndiye tsono ana inu, ndimvereni; odala anthu amene amasunga njira zanga.
33 Teererai kurayira kwangu mugova vakachenjera; musakushayira hanya.
Mverani malangizo anga kuti mukhale ndi nzeru; musanyozere mawu anga.
34 Akaropafadzwa munhu anoteerera kwandiri, anorinda mazuva ose pamasuo angu. Anomira pamukova womusuo wangu.
Wodala munthu amene amandimvera, amene amakhala pa khomo panga tsiku ndi tsiku, kudikirira pa chitseko changa.
35 Nokuti ani naani anondiwana anowana upenyu uye anogamuchira nyasha kubva kuna Jehovha.
Paja aliyense amene apeza ine wapeza moyo ndipo Yehova amamukomera mtima.
36 Asi ani naani asingandiwani anozvikuvadza; vose vanondivenga vanoda rufu.”
Koma amene alephera kundipeza, amadzipweteka yekha; onse amene amandida amakonda imfa.”
