Yobu 34:1-37
34 Ntheura Elihu wakalutilira kuzgora, wakati:
2 “Pulikani mazgu ghane, imwe ŵavinjeru,Nipulikani, imwe mukumanya vinandi.
3 Pakuti khutu likuyezga mazgu,Nga umo lulimi lukuchetera chakurya.
4 Tiyeni tisande tekha icho ntchakunyoloka,Tiyeni tidumure pakati pithu icho ntchiwemi.
5 Pakuti Yobu wati, ‘Ndine murunji,+Kweni Chiuta waninora urunji.+
6 Kasi ningateta umo cheruzgo chane chikwenera kuŵira?
Chilonda chane ntchambura kupora nangauli nindanange.’+
7 Kasi ni munthu nju wakuyana na Yobu,Mweneuyo wakumwa muyuyuro nga ni maji?
8 Wakwendezgana na ŵakuchita viheni,Ndipo wakuchezga na ŵanthu ŵaheni.+
9 Pakuti wati, ‘Munthu wakusanga chandulo charaPara wakuyezga kukondweska Chiuta.’+
10 Ntheura nipulikani, imwe ŵanthu ŵakumanya tunthu:
Chiuta waunenesko wangachita uheni chara,+Wankhongonozose wangachita kwananga chara!+
11 Pakuti wakupeleka njombe kwa munthu kuyana na milimo yake,+Na kumuwezgera kuyana na nthowa zake.
12 Enya nadi, Chiuta wangachita uheni chara,+Wankhongonozose wakubendezga urunji chara.+
13 Ni njani uyo wakamuŵika kuti walaŵilirenge charu chapasi,Ni njani uyo wakamupa mazaza pa charu chose?
14 Chiuta waŵenge kuti wakuŵika maghanoghano* ghake pa ŵanthu,Waŵenge kuti wakuwunjika mzimu na mvuchi wawo kwa iyo,+
15 Mphanyi ŵanthu wose ŵaparanyikira lumoza,Mphanyi ŵanthu wose ŵawelera ku fuvu.+
16 Ntheura usange ndimwe ŵakumanya tunthu, pulikizgani ichi,Tegherezgani chomene icho nkhuyowoya.
17 Kasi uyo wakutinkha urunji wangawusa,Panji mungasuska wankhongono uyo ni murunji?
18 Kasi mungaphalira themba kuti, ‘Ndiwe wawakawaka’?
Panji kuphalira ŵakuchindikika kuti, ‘Ndimwe ŵaheni’?+
19 Pali Yumoza uyo wakutemwera ŵakaronga chara,Uyo wakupatura chara pakati pa ŵasambazi na ŵakavu,+Chifukwa wose ni mulimo wa mawoko ghake.+
20 Pakati pa usiku+ ŵangafwa mwamabuchi,+Ŵakuphupa chomene na kufwa,Nanga mbankhongono ŵakufumiskikapo, kweni na mawoko gha munthu chara.+
21 Pakuti maso gha Chiuta ghali pa nthowa za munthu,+Wakuwona mendero ghake ghose.
22 Kulije mdima panji chisi chikuruUko ŵaheni ŵangabisamako.+
23 Chifukwa Chiuta wandamutemere nyengo munthu waliyoseYakuti wawonekere panthazi pake na kweruzgika.
24 Wakuphyora ŵankhongono kwambura kufumbilira,Na kwimika ŵanyake mu malo ghawo.+
25 Pakuti wakumanya ivyo ŵakuchita,+Wakuŵagodobora mu usiku, ndipo ŵakudinyika.+
26 Wakuŵatimba chifukwa cha uheni wawo,Wakuŵatimbira pa malo agho wose ŵangawona,+
27 Chifukwa ŵaleka kumulondezga,+Ndipo ŵakuŵikako mahara chara ku nthowa zake.+
28 Ŵakuchitiska ŵakavu kuti ŵamulilire,Mwakuti wakupulika kulira kwa awo ŵakuyuzgika.+
29 Para Chiuta wakhala chete, ni njani wangamususka?
Para wabisa chisko chake, ni njani wangamuwona?
Vikuyana waka, kwali wabise chisko chake ku mtundu panji ku munthu payekha,
30 Kuti munthu wambura kopa Chiuta* waleke kuwusa,+Panji kuthya ŵanthu vipingo.
31 Kasi munthu wangayowoya kwa Chiuta kuti,‘Nalangika nangauli nindanange chilichose,+
32 Nisambizgani icho natondeka kuchiwona,Usange nananga chinthu chinyake, nizamuwerezgaso chara’?
33 Kasi wamupani njombe pa mazgu ghinu uku mwakana cheruzgo chake?
Musankhe mwekha, ine chara.
Ntheura niphalirani icho mukuchimanya makora.
34 Ŵanthu ŵakumanya tunthu ŵayowoyenge kwa ine,Wavinjeru yose uyo wakunipulika,
35 ‘Yobu wakuyowoya kwambura kumanya,+Ndipo mazgu ghake ngambura mahara.’
36 Yobu wayezgeke* mwakukwanaChifukwa mazgoro ghake ghakuyana na gha ŵanthu ŵaheni.
37 Pa kwananga kwake wakusazgapo chigaluka,+Wakukuŵa mapi pamaso pithu mwachigong’oska,Ndipo wakwandaniska mazgu ghake kwimikana na Chiuta waunenesko.”+
