KISWAHILI: UTAKIONA KILICHOMFANYA JIMINOGENI ALIE.

Chanzo cha msemo huo, chatokea kwenye matendo ya mtu aliyeitwa Jiminogeni. Jiminogeni huyo, alikuwa mtu mwenye matendo maovu yakiwemo yale ya uzinzi. Alipokuwa bado hajakamatwa alikuwa akisema, ‘tunatafuta dafu, (kitu) laini.’

Lakini Jiminogeni huyo, alipokamatwa alipigwa sana, na kutozwa faini ya uzinzi. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwa watu wenye tabia kama hiyo hata leo, kwamba, ‘utakiona kilichomfanya jiminogeni alie.’

 Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hutenda maovu kama yale ya uzinzi, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hataki kuonywa na wenzake juu ya kuiacha tabia yake hiyo mbaya.

Yeye hufanana na Jiminogeni, kwa sababu naye hutenda maovu kama hayo katika maisha yake. Watu wanaoifahamu tabia yake hiyo ya kutenda maovu, humwambia kwamba, ‘utakiona kilichomfanya jiminogeni alie.’

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuacha matendo maovu yakiwemo yale ya uzinzi, na mengine yanayofanana na hayo, katika maisha yao, ili waweze kuishi kwa amani na wenzao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: YOU WILL FACE WHAT MADE JIMINOGENI CRY.

The source of this saying is the actions of a man called Jiminogeni. This man was labelled my villagers as someone who is bad mannered. He could engage in immoral relationships like fornication. Before being caught red handed for his corrupt behaviour, he was boasting himself that he lives through eating “soft things”.

One day it happened that Jiminogeni was caught red handedly by people who disapproved of his behaviour. He was beaten off and fined for adultery. This scenario led to the formulation of the saying that ‘you will face what made Jiminogeni cry’ as a warning to others who have similar unacceptable behaviour.

 This saying can be compared to a person who commits immorality such as adultery in his/her life. This person does not want to be warned by his/her colleagues to stop his/her bad behaviour. He/she is like Jiminogeni who was adamant to accept people’s advice.

The saying teaches people to stop evil practices such as fornication, and the likes, in their lives.
