Mawu a Yobu

1Tsono Yobu anayankha kuti,

2“Achikhala mavuto anga anayezedwa,

ndipo zipsinjo zanga zonse zikanayikidwa pa sikelo!

3Ndithu, zikanalemera kupambana mchenga wa ku nyanja;

nʼchifukwa chake mawu anga akhala okhadzula.

4Mivi ya Wamphamvuzonse yandibaya,

thupi langa likumva ululu wa miviyo;

zoopsa za Mulungu zandizinga.

5Kodi bulu wakuthengo amalira akakhala ndi msipu,

nanga ngʼombe imalira ikakhala ndi chakudya?

6Kodi chakudya chosakoma nʼkuchidya chopanda mchere,

nanga choyera cha dzira chimakoma?

7Zakudya zimenezi sindifuna nʼkuzilawa komwe;

zakudya zimenezi zimabwerera kukhosi.

8“Aa, ndikanalandira chimene ndikuchipempha,

chikhala Mulungu anandipatsa chimene ndikuchiyembekezera,

9achikhala chinamukomera Mulungu kuti anditswanye,

kulola dzanja lake kuti lindimenye ndi kundiwonongeratu!

10Pamenepo ine ndikanakhalabe ndi chitonthozo ichi,

ndikanakondwa mu ululu wanga wosalekezawu

podziwa kuti sindinakane mawu a Woyerayo.

11“Kodi mphamvu zanga nʼzotani kuti ndizikhalabe ndi chiyembekezo?

Nanga zoyembekezera zanga nʼzotani kuti ndipirirebe?

12Kodi ine ndili ndi mphamvu?

Nanga thupi langa ndi lolimba ngati chitsulo?

13Kodi ndili ndi mphamvu zodzithandizira ndekha,

nanga pakuti thandizo lachotsedwa kwa ine?

14“Munthu amene ali kakasi ayenera kukhala ndi abwenzi odzipereka,

ngakhale kuti iyeyo wasiya kuopa Wamphamvuzonse.

15Koma abale anga ndi wosadalirika ngati mitsinje yowuma msanga,

ngati mitsinje imene imathamanga.

16Ali ngati mitsinje ya madzi akuda nthawi ya dzinja,

imene madzi ake amakhala ambiri chifukwa chakuchuluka kwa mvula,

17koma madziwo amasiya kuyenda nthawi yachilimwe,

ndipo nthawi yotentha madziwo amawumiratu mʼmitsinjemo.

18Anthu oyenda pa ngamira amapatukirako kufuna madzi;

iwo amangoyendayenda nʼkufera mʼchipululu.

19Anthu oyenda pa ngamira a ku Tema amafunafuna madzi,

anthu amalonda apaulendo a ku Seba amafunafuna mwa chiyembekezo.

20Amataya mtima chifukwa ankayembekezera kupeza madzi;

koma akafika kumeneko, amangokhumudwako.

21Tsono inunso mukuonetsa kuti ndinu osathandiza,

mukuona chinthu choopsa kwambiri ndipo mukuchita mantha.

22Kodi ine ndinanenapo kuti, ‘Ndiperekereni kenakake,

ndilipirireni dipo kuchokera pa chuma chanu,

23ndilanditseni mʼdzanja la mdani,

ndiwomboleni mʼdzanja la munthu wankhanza?’

24“Phunzitseni, ndipo ine ndidzakhala chete;

ndionetseni pomwe ndalakwitsa.

25Ndithu, mawu owona ndi opweteka!

Koma mawu anu otsutsa akufuna kuonetsa chiyani?

26Kodi inu mukufuna kundidzudzula pa zimene ndikunena,

ndipo mukufuna kuyesa mawu a munthu wosweka mtima ngati mphepo chabe?

27Inu mungathe kuchita maere kuti mugulitse ana amasiye

ndi kumugulitsa bwenzi lanu.

28“Koma tsopano ndichitireni chifundo pamene mukundiyangʼana.

Kodi ine ndingayankhule zabodza pamaso panu?

29Fewani mtima, musachite zosalungama;

ganiziraninso popeza chilungamo changa chikanalipobe.

30Kodi pali choyipa chilichonse pa milomo yanga?

Kodi pakamwa panga sipangathe kuzindikira kanthu koyipa?
