1 Akaropafadzwa munhu asingafambi panorangana vakaipa, asingamiri panzira yavatadzi, asingagari pachigaro chavadadi.
Alina omukisa omuntu atatambulira mu kuteesa kw’ababi, era atayimirira mu kibiina ky’ababi, newaakubadde okutuula n’abo abanyooma ebya Katonda.
2 Asi anofarira murayiro waJehovha, uye anofungisisa murayiro wake masikati nousiku.
Naye asanyukira okugondera amateeka ga Mukama, era mu mateeka ago mw’alowooleza emisana n’ekiro.
3 Akafanana nomuti wakasimwa pahova dzemvura, unobereka michero yawo nenguva yawo, uye mashizha awo haasvavi. Chinhu chipi nechipi chaanoita chinoendeka.
Afaanana ng’omuti ogwasimbibwa ku mabbali g’omugga, ogubala ebibala byagwo mu ntuuko zaabyo, n’ebikoola byagwo tebiwotoka. Na buli ky’akola kivaamu birungi byereere.
4 Vakaipa havana kudaro! Vakafanana nehundi inopepereswa nemhepo.
Naye abakola ebibi tebakola bwe batyo. Bali ng’ebisusunku ebifuumuuliddwa.
5 Naizvozvo vakaipa havangamiri pakutongwa, kana vatadzi paungano yavakarurama.
Noolwekyo abakola ebibi tebaligumira lunaku lwa kusalirako musango; newaakubadde aboonoonyi okuyimirira mu kibiina ky’abatuukirivu.
6 Nokuti Jehovha anotarira nzira yavakarurama, asi nzira yavakaipa ichaparadzwa.
Kubanga Mukama alabirira ekkubo ly’abatuukirivu, naye ekkubo ly’abakola ebibi liribula.
