KISWAHILI: LAANA HUTAMBAA.

Chanzo cha methali hii chaangalia kuenea kwa laana. Laana hiyo ni ubaya unaompata mtu mwenye maneno au matendo ya dharau kwa mzazi wake, au mtu mwingine ambaye hushika nafasi ya mzazi wake.

Mtu huyo aliyelaniwa hutenda maovu ambayo huwaambukiza pia wenzake tabia hiyo, kwa sababu ya kuyaiga matendo hayo maovu katika maisha yake mtu huyo. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, ‘laana hutambaa.’

Methali hii hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule aliyelaniwa na mkubwa wake kwa sababu ya dharau aliyomfanyia. Mtu huyo huwa na mawazo mengi kwa sababu ya kukataa kwake kuomba msamaha kwa mkubwa wake huyo.

Yeye alipata laana inayoenea kwa wengine kama ile ya Adamu na Eva, waliyoipata baada ya kumkosea Mungu. Laana hiyo huwafikia watu wengine kwa sababu ya ubaya wao wa kukosa utii kwa Mungu. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, ‘laana hutambaa.’

Methali hii hufundisha watu kuacha kuwadharau wakubwa wao katika maisha yao; badala yake, wawaheshimu kwa kuwaombea, ili waweze kupata baraka za kupata mafanikio mengi maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: A CURSE CREEPS.

The origin of this proverb is the spread of a curse. A curse is a misfortune that results from a person’s derogatory actions toward his or her parent or any other person who occupies his or her parent’s place.

The victim commits evil deeds that some other people imitate and suffer the consequences. That is why people say, ‘A curse creeps.’

The proverb is used comparatively as a reminder to those people who despise their superiors that because of the contempt and refusal to apologize, they are prone to suffering from prolonged stress.

That being the case, such people may be said to under a curse that spreads or creeps to others, like that of Adam and Eve, which they received after they sinned against God. This curse creeps to other people because of their disobedience to God. That is why people say, ‘ A curse creeps.’

This proverb teaches people to refrain from despising their superiors in their lives; instead, they should honour them through intercession, so that they can receive the blessings of achieving great and successful lives.
