KISWAHILI: KUMEZA MFUPA HUKUAHIDIANA NA KOLOMEO.

Methali hiyo yaangalia mtu aliyekuwa anameza mfupa bila kuliandaa vizuri kolomeo lake. Alikuwepo mtu mmoja ambaye alikuwa anakula nyama pamoja na mifupa yake. Alishitukia amekwamiwa na mfupa huo kwenye koo lake, kwa sababu  ya kutokuliandaa vizuri kolomeo lake.

Mtu huyo alishindwa kuendelea kula kwa sababu ya kumeza mfupa bila kuliandaa vizuri kolomeo lake. Ndiyo maana watu walimwambia kwamba siyo vizuri, “kumeza mfupa hukuahidina na kolomeo.”

Methali hiyo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hufanya kazi asizo na uwezo nazo, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huwa hajiandai kabla ya kufanya kazi hizo. Ndiyo maana, huwa hazimalizi kazi zake kwa sababu ya kutokuzijali vizuri, katika maisha yake. Yeye hupata matatizo mengi yakiwemo yale ya kuishiwa chakula katika familia yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyemeza mfupa bila kuliandaa vizuri kolomeo lake, katika maisha yake, kwa sababu yeye hufanya kazi zake bila ya kujiandaa vizuri. Ndiyo maana watu humwambia kwamba, siyo vizuri, “kumeza mfupa hukuahidina na kolomeo.”

Methali hiyo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuzijali kazi zao kwa kujiandaa vizuri kabla ya kuanza kuzitekeleza, ili waweze kupata maendeleo mengi, maishani mwao.

Luka 14:28-30.

ENGLISH: TO SWALLOW BONES WITHOUT HAVING AN AGREEMENT WITH AN ESOPHAGUS (TO DO SOMETHING WITHOUT WEIGHING THE PROS AND CONS).

The overhead proverb looks at a person who swallowed a bone without properly preparing his/her throat. There was a man who was eating meat with bones. He was shocked to find that the bone was stuck in his throat, because he had not properly prepared his esophagus.

Such man could not continue to eat because he felt pain in his esophagus. That is why people told him that it was not good, “to swallow bones without having an agreement with an esophagus.”

This proverb is compared to the person who performs incompetent tasks in his life. Such person does not have good preparations before performing his/her works. That is why he/she does not finish his works because lacking the required preparations before doing them. He/she suffers from many problems, including malnutrition in his family.

This person is like the one who swallowed a bone without properly preparing his throat, in his life, because he does his job without having good preparations. That is why people tell him that, it is not good, “to swallow bones without having an agreement with an esophagus.”

This proverb imparts in people an ideo on how to take care of their works by preparing well before they start doing them, so that they can get a lot of progress, in their lives.
