Lusito lwetaga
1 Taga taSolomoni, umsa waDavide, inkhosi yema-Israyeli.
2Letaga tenta umuntfu akwati kuhlakanipha nekwekhuteka, acondzisise inchazelo yemavi lajulile. 3Tifundzisana kuphila ngebucotfo bengcondvo, nekwenta kulunga, nekungakhetsi. 4Tenta losengakaliboni live abe nekuhlakanipha, tifundzise labasha kuba nelwati nekuzitsa. 5Labahlakaniphile batsi bangatilalela kwengeteke lwati lwabo; nalabanengcondvo batsi bangatifundza batente, batfole bungcweti, 6khona batekuvisisa kahle letaga, nemifanekiso, nenchazelo yaletimphicabadzala.
Umyalo locondzene nendvodzana
7 Kwesaba Simakadze kusicalo selwati, tilima tiyakwedzelela kuhlakanipha nemiyalo.
8 Ndvodzana yami, lalela umyalo weyihlo, ungayali imfundziso yenyoko, 9 ngobe iyakuba ngumhlobiso lonjengemchele wenhloko yakho, nanjengeligcebesha lentsamo yakho.
10 Ndvodzana yami, nangabe toni tikuyenga, ungacali uvume, 11natitsi kuwe: “Kota, sambe sifune lesingahle simbulale; asihambe silalele labangenacala, sibajabhalate ngaphandle kwesono. 12Asibagwinye baphila baye endzaweni yalabafile, njengalabo labangena baye phansi ethuneni. 13Sitawutfola tonkhe tintfo letiligugu, sigcwalise tindlu tetfu ngetimphahla lesitichwagile. 14Kota, utihlanganise natsi; khona sitewuba nesikhwama sinye nawe.”
15Ndvodzana yami, ungahambisani nebantfu labanje; ungalubeki lunyawo lwakho etindleleni tabo, 16 ngobe tinyawo tabo tigijimela lokubi, basheshe bacitse ingati. 17Akusiti lutfo kuvula sochaka, kantsi lenyoni lofuna kuyibamba iyakubuka. 18Kodvwa bantfu labanjalo batetsiyela sifu sekutibulala bona; babhacele kutisontsa bona, batibulale.
19 Tinjalo tindlela talabo labatfola ingcebo ngebugelekece; timphilo tabo titsatfwa bugelekece babo.
Kumemeta kwekuhlakanipha
20Kuhlakanipha kumemeta etitaladini; kumemeta kakhulu nasetimakethe. 21 Kumemeta kakhulu nasemahlanganweni emigwaco; kukhulume nasemasangweni emadolobha kutsi:
22“Nine leningati lutfo! Niyawuhlala ningati lutfo kuze kube ngunini? Baphukuti bayawuphukuta kuze kube ngunini? Tona tilima titawutondzana nelwati kuze kube ngunini? 23Ase nilalele kunitsetsisa kwami; imicabango yami ngitayitfululela kini, nginitjele lokusenhlitiyweni yami. 24 Njengobe nginimemetile nala kulalela, ngelula sandla sami nala kusibamba, 25nangete nasitsatsa seluleko sami, nala nekutsi nginekhute, 26 nami-ke ngitanihleka nase nehlelwe tinhlupheko. Ngitanicoloshela nase nehlelwe sigemegeme, 27nase nifikelwe kutfutfumela lokunjengesiphepho, nesigemegeme lesinjengesihhushuhhushu, nekudzangala kanye nekudzabuka.
28 “Bayawube sebayangibita, kodvwa ngingeke ngisabele; batangifunisisa, kodvwa bangeke bangitfole. 29Ngobe batondza lwati, abazange bakhetse kwesaba Simakadze. 30Abazange basitsatse seluleko sami, nekubacondzisa kwami bakwedzelela. 31 Ngako-ke batawutfola titselo tetindlela tabo, bacunjiswe ngemacebo abo. 32Labate lwati babulawa kweduka kwabo; tilima tibulawa kweneliseka kwato. 33Kodvwa lowo lolalela mine utawuhlala aphephile, akhululeke, angesabi lutfo lolubi.”
