Mithali 8
1 Je, hekima haitani? Je, ufahamu hapazi sauti?
Palunghahaih mah kami to kawk ai maw? Panoekhaih mah doeh tha hoi lokthui ai maw?
2 Juu ya miinuko karibu na njia, penye njia panda, ndipo asimamapo;
Anih loe hmuensang hoi lamkrung taengah angdoet.
3 kando ya malango yaelekeayo mjini, kwenye maingilio, hulia kwa sauti kubwa, akisema:
Anih loe vangpui thung akunhaih khongkha taeng, thoknawk taengah angdoet moe, tha hoi a hangh.
4 “Ni ninyi wanaume, ninaowaita; ninapaza sauti yangu kwa wanadamu wote.
Aw kahing kaminawk, kang kawk o; kaminawk hanah lok ka thuih pae.
5 Ninyi ambao ni wajinga, pateni akili; ninyi mlio wapumbavu, pateni ufahamu.
Aw poekhaih tawn ai kami rumramnawk, palunghahaih to panoek oh; Aw amthu kaminawk, panoekhaih palungthin to tawn oh.
6 Sikilizeni, kwa maana nina mambo muhimu ya kusema; ninafungua midomo yangu kusema lililo sawa.
Tahngai oh, hmuen kahoih kang thuih o han; toenghaih lok to kang thuih o han.
7 Kinywa changu husema lililo kweli, kwa maana midomo yangu huchukia uovu.
Ka pakha mah loktang lok to thui ueloe, ka pahni mah sethaih to panuet tih.
8 Maneno yote ya kinywa changu ni haki; hakuna mojawapo lililopotoka wala ukaidi.
Ka pakha pong ih loknawk boih loe toeng, angkawnh moe, amsoem ai lok maeto doeh om ai.
9 Kwa wenye kupambanua yote ni sahihi; hayana kasoro kwa wale wenye maarifa.
Thaikop kami hanah loe hmuennawk boih to zoi, palunghahaih pakrong kami han loe toenghaih ah oh.
10 Chagua mafundisho yangu badala ya fedha, maarifa badala ya dhahabu safi,
Sumkanglung pongah loe ka thuitaekhaih hae talawk ah loe, sui pongah loe palunghahaih to qoi ah.
11 kwa maana hekima ina thamani kuliko marijani na hakuna chochote unachohitaji kinacholingana naye.
Atho kana thlung kathim pongah loe palunghahaih to hoih kue, to loe koeh ih hmuennawk boih hoiah patah thai ai.
12 “Mimi hekima, nakaa pamoja na busara; ninamiliki maarifa na busara.
Ka palunghahaih loe acoehaih hoiah amraep pongah, palunghahaih hoi panoekhaih to ohsak.
13 Kumcha Bwana ni kuchukia uovu; ninachukia kiburi na majivuno, tabia mbaya na mazungumzo potovu.
Kahoih ai hmuen zithaih loe, Angraeng zithaih ah oh; amoekhaih, poeksanghaih, sethaih loklam hoi lok kangkoiah thuihaih to ka hnukma.
14 Ushauri na hukumu sahihi ni vyangu; nina ufahamu na nina nguvu.
Poek kahoih paekhaih hoi palunghahaih loe kai ih ni; kai loe panoekhaih hoi sakthaihaih tha to ka tawnh.
15 Kwa msaada wangu wafalme hutawala na watawala hutunga sheria zilizo za haki,
Siangpahrangnawk loe kai rang hoiah ni angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnut o moe, katoeng patukhaih to angraengnawk mah pazui o.
16 kwa msaada wangu wakuu hutawala, na wenye vyeo wote watawalao dunia.
Kai rang hoiah angraeng capanawk, angraengnawk hoi lokcaekkungnawk mah, long kaminawk to uk o.
17 Nawapenda wale wanipendao, na wale wanitafutao kwa bidii wataniona.
Kai palung kaminawk to ka palung, palung tang hoi kai pakrong kaminawk mah loe kai to ang hnuk o.
18 Utajiri na heshima viko kwangu, utajiri udumuo na mafanikio.
Angraenghaih hoi pakoehhaih loe kai khaeah oh; ue, atue kasawkah kakaan angraenghaih hoi toenghaih doeh oh.
19 Tunda langu ni bora kuliko dhahabu safi; kile nitoacho hupita fedha iliyo bora.
Kai ih athaih loe sui pongah hoih kue; ue, kaciim suitui pongah doeh hoih kue; kai khae hoi hakih hmuen loe, qoih het ih sumkanglung pongah doeh hoih kue.
20 Natembea katika njia ya unyofu katika mapito ya haki,
Kai loe toenghaih hoi katoeng lokcaekhaih loklam um li ah ka caeh pongah,
21 nawapa utajiri wale wanipendao na kuzijaza hazina zao.
kai palung kaminawk khaeah qawktoephaih to ka paek, nihcae hmuen patunghaih ahmuen to ka koisak han.
22 “Bwana aliniumba mwanzoni mwa kazi yake, kabla ya matendo yake ya zamani;
Kai loe canghnii ih hmuennawk sah ai nathuem, a tok sak amtong tangsuek na hoi boeh ni Angraeng ih hmuen ah ka oh.
23 niliteuliwa tangu milele, tangu mwanzoni, kabla ya dunia kuumbwa.
Kai loe long om ai vop, long oh amtong tangsuek nathuem hoiah dungzan ah ang caksak boeh.
24 Wakati hazijakuwepo bahari, nilikwishazaliwa, wakati hazijakuwepo chemchemi zilizojaa maji;
Tuipuinawk om o ai vop, vapui tui doeh long ai naah, kai hae ang tapen boeh.
25 kabla milima haijawekwa mahali pake, kabla vilima havijakuwepo, nilikwishazaliwa,
Maenawk om ai vop, maesomnawk doeh om ai naah, kai hae ang tapen boeh;
26 kabla hajaumba dunia wala mashamba yake au vumbi lolote la dunia.
long hoi tawnawk to sah ai vop, long nui ih maiphu doeh sah ai naah, kai hae ang tapen boeh.
27 Nilikuwepo alipoziweka mbingu mahali pake, wakati alichora mstari wa upeo wa macho juu ya uso wa kilindi,
Vannawk to sak moe, tuipuinawk hmaa ah kaom hmuennawk to a sak nathuem,
28 wakati aliweka mawingu juu na kuziweka imara chemchemi za bahari,
van ranui ih tamainawk to a sak moe, tuipui thung ih tuinawk to thacaksak nathuem;
29 wakati aliiwekea bahari mpaka wake ili maji yasivunje agizo lake, na wakati aliweka misingi ya dunia.
a paek ih lok to tui mah poeng thai han ai ah, long angdoethaih ahmuen a sak naah kai ka oh boeh:
30 Wakati huo nilikuwa fundi stadi kando yake. Nilijazwa na furaha siku baada ya siku, nikifurahi daima mbele zake,
to naah kai loe anih hoi nawnto qoeng tahang capa baktiah, anih taengah ka oh; ni thokkruek anih anghoehaih ah ka oh; a hmaa ah anghoehaih hoiah ka koi poe;
31 nikifurahi katika dunia yake yote nami nikiwafurahia wanadamu.
a sak ih long nuiah anghoehaih ka tawnh moe, kami capanawk nuiah doeh oephaih ka tawnh.
32 “Basi sasa wanangu, nisikilizeni; heri wale wanaozishika njia zangu.
To pongah Aw ka caanawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh; kai ih loklam pazui kaminawk loe tahamhoih o.
33 Sikilizeni mafundisho yangu mwe na hekima; msiyapuuze.
Kang thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai oh, pahnawt o hmah loe, palungha oh.
34 Heri mtu yule anisikilizaye mimi, akisubiri siku zote malangoni mwangu, akingoja kwenye vizingiti vya mlango wangu.
Ka lok tahngaih moe, ni thokkruek kai ih khongkhanawk to toep pacoengah, kai ih thok tungnawk taengah zing kami loe, tahamhoih.
35 Kwa maana yeyote anipataye mimi amepata uzima na kujipatia kibali kutoka kwa Bwana.
Kai hnu kami loe hinghaih to hnuk; Angraeng anghoehaih to a hnuk.
36 Lakini yeyote ashindwaye kunipata hujiumiza mwenyewe; na wote wanichukiao mimi hupenda mauti.”
Toe ka hmaa ah zaehaih sah kami loe, a hinghaih paro kami ah oh; kai hnuma kaminawk boih loe, duekhaih palung kami ah ni oh o.
