Kuzwinyima zojiwa kwe lebeswa
1 “Milidza hwi umimile, usinyalale.
Hwi lilo ngaliyende pezhugwi sele lunyanga.
Zibisa bathu bangu bupanduki gwabo,
ng'umba ya Jakubo uyizibise zwibi zwayo.
2 Banondishaka zhuba ne zhuba,
banonga bakamusa meya kuziba zila dzangu,
bethama se ludzi gunoshinga ndulamo,
se bathu basakalasha milayo ye Ndzimu wabo.
Banondikumbila kusumikilisa kwakalulwama,
banoshathila kusedzela pejo nami.
3 Banoti, ‘Tozwinyimilani zojiwa koga imwi musingabone?
Tozwiyisilani pasi imwi musina anya nako?’
“Bonani, mu zhuba le kuzwinyima zojiwa kwenyu moshinga zwe kuda kwenyu,
mukatshambilidza bashingi benyu bose.
4 Bonani, kuzwinyima zojiwa kwenyu kozhisa kukayikana ne kugwa
mulobana ne mbaka dzakabipa.
Kuzwinyima zojiwa kunonga kwenyu zhuba ileli,
akutowothama kuti hwi lenyu lihwike zhuzhugwi.
5 Apa ikoku ndiko kuzwinyima zojiwa kwandakashalula,
kwe zhuba le nthu kuzwiyisa pasi kene?
Apa ngekwe kukotamisa nsholo se dongobushwa,
ne kulala pa tjizhalanlota wakawala saka kene?
Apa ndiko kwamunodana kuzwinyima zojiwa
ne zhuba linoamutjilika kuna Yahwe kene?
6 “Apa kuzwinyima zojiwa kwandakashalula ate kuli
kusunungula misungo ye mbipo,
kuthubula zwitoropo zwe jokwi
kuletja batshambilidziwa kuyenda basununguka
ne kuvuna jokwi limwe ne limwe?
7 Apa ate kuli kukobana zojiwa zwizo ne bana zhala,
ne kuzhisa basina mizi mu nzi uwo,
uti ubona bambujo ukabaambadza,
usingazwisumbikile gamu lilo kene?
8 Ipapo tjedza tjenyu tjowopenya se kupadza,
ne kupodziwa kwenyu kowotjimbidza,
kululwama kwenyu kowomutungamila,
ngono tjedza tja Yahwe tjowobe mbakililo shule kwenyu.
9 Ipapo mowodana, ngono Yahwe banowodabila,
mowolila, ngono banowoti, ‘Imi ndipano.’
“Ha mudusa jokwi le kutshambilidza mu muli,
kose ne kutendekana ne tjinyala nenge ndebo dzisakatjena mbiimbi,
10 ha mupa bana zhala zojiwa,
mugutsha banotshambilidziwa nge zwabanosheta,
ipapo tjedza tjenyu tjowopenya mu zhalima,
zhalima lamuli mulili lowonga tjedza tje masikati makulu.
11 Yahwe banowomutungamila misi yose,
banowomugutsha nge zwamunosheta mu mituthu yakangoriwa nge zhuba,
banowomusidzila simba lenyu,
ngono mowofanana ne nnda unodilidzigwa,
mukanga nsenya we vula
usingatongopkhwa.
12 Matongo enyu antolo anowomusiwa,
mowomusa thiwa dza ntolo,
mowodang'wa bamusi be makuma akawa,
bamusi be zila dzina magalo.
13 “Ha mungathubukana ngotshamba Sabata,
mukoletja kushinga zwe ludo gwenyu mu zhuba langu lakayengemala,
ha mungadana Sabata kushatha,
zhuba la Yahwe linokudziwa,
ha mulikudza, musingayende zila dzenyu
kene kushinga tje kuda kwenyu kene muleba ndebo dze madatha,
14 ipapo mowowana kushatha muna Yahwe
ngono ndowothama kuti mutathe pezhugwi mu magalo apezhugwi e shango,
ngono ndowokugutsha nge thaka ya tate babo Jakubo,
Nlomo wa Yahwe walebeleka!”
