Liproverbia 11:1-31
11 Likala zesasepahali* ki zenyenyisa ku Jehova,Kono sipimiso* sesinepahezi samutabisa.+
2 Buikuhumuso habutile, sesika latelela ki kashwau,+Kono butali bufumaneha ku babaishuwa.+
3 Busepahali bwa babalukile ki bona bobu baetelela,+Kono bupumi bwa babasa sepahali buka bayundisa.+
4 Bufumu* habuna kutusa sesiñwi ka lizazi la buhali,+Kono kuluka kukalamulela mutu kwa lifu.+
5 Kuluka kwa yasanyazahali kumulukiseza nzila yahae,Kono yamaswe ukawiswa ki bumaswe bwahae.+
6 Kuluka kwa babalukile kuka balamulela,+Kono babasa sepahali bakaswasiwa ki litakazo zabona.+
7 Yamaswe hashwa, ni sepo yahae yafela;Mi lika zanaabata kueza ka maata ahae ni zona zafela.+
8 Yalukile walamulelwa hali mwa ziyezi,Mi yamaswe ukena mwa sibaka sahae.+
9 Ka mulomo wahae, mukwenuheli* utahiseza mwanahabo yena kozi,Kono zibo ilamulela babalukile.+
10 Bunde bwa babalukile bunyakalalisa muleneñi,Mi babamaswe habashwa, mwa muleneñi kuba ni mihuwo ya tabo.+
11 Mbuyoti ya babalukile ibubekisa muleneñi,+Kono mulomo wa babamaswe waushandaula.+
12 Mutu kaufela yasina ngana* ushwaula* mwanahabo yena,Kono mutu yanani temuho ya niti waikuzeza.+
13 Lisawana lipatulula likunutu,+Kono mutu yasepahala* ubuluka likunutu.*
14 Hakusina ketelelo yende,* batu bawa,Kono lika zakonda* hakunani baelezi babañata.+
15 Mutu kaufela yaitama kulifa sikoloti* sa mutu yasazibi, ukasinyehelwa luli,+Kono mutu kaufela yahana* kuswala mwa lizoho ka kueza tumelelano ukaiketa.
16 Musali yamusa* uipumanela kanya,+Kono baana babalunya bahapa maluwo.
17 Mutu yasishemo* waitusa ili yena,+Kono mutu yasituhu uitabulela butata.*+
18 Yamaswe uipumanela lituwelo zesatusi sesiñwi,+Kono yacala kuluka uamuhela mupuzo wa niti.+
19 Yatundamena kuyemela kuluka uliba kwa bupilo,+Kono yatukufalelwa kueza zemaswe uliba kwa lifu.
20 Babanani pilu yekopami banyenyisa ku Jehova,+Kono babazamaya mwa nzila yesanyazahali bamutabisa.+
21 Muzibe taba ye:* Mutu yamaswe haana kutuhelelwa asafiwi koto,+Kono bana ba batu babalukile bakabanduka.
22 Sina lisale la gauda leli kwa ngo ya kulubeNi musali yabuheha yahana litaba za ngana ucwalo.
23 Takazo ya babalukile ibaisa ku zende,+Kono zebasepile babamaswe libaisa kwa buhali.
24 Mutu yomuñwi ufana hahulu* mi ukutelwa ki zeñata;+Yomuñwi waipulukela sesiswanela kufiwa, kono ukenelwa ki bubotana.+
25 Mutu yafana ukakondisa zahae,*+Mi yawetulusa* babañwi ni yena ukawetuluswa.+
26 Batu bakakuta yaipulukela bubeke,Kono bakafuyaula yabulekisa.
27 Yatundamena kueza zende ukashemubiwa,+Kono yabata bumaswe—ki bona bobuka mutahela luli.+
28 Yasepile sifumu sahae ukawa,+Kono babalukile bakapila hande sina matali.+
29 Yatisa butata* ku ba ndu yahae ukakutula moya,+Mi sikuba sikaba mutangaa mutu wa pilu yebutali.
30 Muselo wa yalukile ki kota ya bupilo,+Mi yahapa mioyo* ubutali.+
31 Haiba yalukile mwa lifasi wafiwa mupuzo,Yamaswe ni muezalibi ni bona bakafiwa hahulu ni kufita!+
