Kodi Pana Cidikhiro kwa Munthu?

Muti udagwetwa usaphukira pontho ukanunkha madzi, mbwenye munthu asagona pantsi mbakhonda kulamuka. Yobe asabvundzika peno anyakufa anakwanisa kukhala maso, asakumbuka kubiswa mpaka ukali ukhapita mbacemerwa kubwerera, mbalonga kuti Mulungu asasakaza cinyindiro ninga madzi akutsakula mwala.

Kapitulu 14.

“Munthu, wakubalwa na nkazi, ana ntsiku zakucepa mbadzala na nyatwa. Iye asamera ninga luwa mbauma; asathawa ninga cithundzithundzi mbakhonda kukhala. Kodi musayang'anisa maso anu pa munthu ninga unowu? Pontho musandibweresa ku ciyeruzo pabodzi na imwe? Mbani anakwanisa kubulusa cinthu cakucena m'cinthu cakukhonda kucena? Nkhabe m'bodzi. Nakuti ntsiku zace zakhazikiswa, ciwerengero ca miyezi yace ciri na imwe, pontho imwe mwaikha midire yakuti iye nkhabe kwanisa kuwambuka, lekani kumuyang'ana iye, toera iye apume, mpaka iye amalise ntsiku yace ninga nyabasa wakuemba.

“Thangwi pana cidikhiro kwa muti: ungagwandwa, unamera pontho, pontho mphukira zace nkhabe kuperewera. Maseze midzi yace ikalambe m'mataka, citsa cace mbacife pantsi, pakununkhira kwa madzi unamera mbabulusa nthambi ninga muti upsa. Mbwenye munthu asafa mbagonekwa pantsi; munthu asamalisa kupuma kwace, buluka penepo iye ali kupi? Ninga madzi asamala m'nyanza, pontho nkulo usapwa mbauma, tenepa munthu asagona mbakhonda kulamuka; mpaka kudzulu kumale, iye nkhabe kudzuka nee kulamuswa m'citulo cace.

“Mbai imwe mbamundibisa m'nthumbi, mbamundifundza mpaka ukali wanu umale, ikhani ndzidzi wakukhazikika wa ine, mbamundikumbuka! Munthu angafa, anadzakhala pontho na umaso? Ntsiku zonsene za basa yanga yakunentsa mbanadikhira, mpaka kupswa kwanga kufike. Imwe mbamucemera, ine mbanitawira imwe; imwe mbamusirira basa ya manja anu. Thangwi penepo imwe mbamulengesa minyendo yanga; imwe nee mbamuonera madawo anga. Kupandukira kwanga mbakudzimbwa m'nkhwama, pontho imwe mbamuphimbira madawo anga.

“Mbwenye ninga phiri inagwa mbanyeketeka, pontho mwala usabuluswa pa mbuto yace, ninga madzi asakhukhula myala mbee mikulo yace isakukula mataka a dziko, tenepa imwe musafudza cidikhiro ca munthu. Imwe musamukunda kwenda na kwenda, iye asapita; musacinja nkhope yace mbamuthamangisa. Anace amuna asapaswa mbiri, mbwenye iye nkhabe kudziwa; asacepeswa, mbwenye iye nkhabe kudzindikira. Iye asabva basi kupha kwa manungo ace ene, mbalira ekha basi thangwi ya iye ekha.”
