Zaburi 86:1-2.

KISWAHILI: LIMEKONDA KUZIDI.

Alikuwepo punda kwenye familia moja aliyekuwa akifanya kazi za hapo. Punda huyo, alikonda sana mpaka mifupa ya mwili wake ikaanza kuonekana, kwa sababu ya kukosa chakula. Ndiyo maana watu waliomuona punda huyo walisema kwamba, “limekonda kuzidi.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huwa hawatunzi vizuri mifugo alio nayo kwenye familia yake, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huwa hawachungi vizuri mifugo wake hao kwa sababu ya kutokuwajali kwake. Yeye huwatelekeza wanyama wake hao mpaka wanakonda, kwa sababu ya kuacha kuwachunga vizuri, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyemtelekeza punda wake mpaka akakonda, kwa sababu naye huwatelekeza wanyama wake hao, mpaka wanakonda katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana watu wanaomuona kila mmoja wake husema kwamba, “limekonda kuzidi.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwatunza vizuri wanyama wao kwa kuwalisha chakula mpaka wanashiba, ili migugo hao waweze kuwasaidia vizuri, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: IT HAD BECOME TOO THIN.

There was a donkey in a family that was doing a lot of works there. Such donkey became very thin until its bones began to be seen, due to lack of food. That is why the people who saw it said that, “it had become too thin.”

This saying is compared to a person who does not take good care of his livestock in his family life. Such person does not take good care of his livestock because of his indifference. He abandons his animals until they become thin, because he stopped taking good care of them, in his life.

This person is like the one who abandoned his donkey until it became thin, because he also abandons his animals until they become thin in his life. That is why people who see each one of them say that, “it had become too thin.”

This saying imparts in people an idea of taking good care of their animals by feeding them food until they are full, so that the animals can help them well in their lives.

Psalm 86:1-2.

Igigela ndimu umunyasamba iyo yamokoka guti mbwa. Indimu yiniyo, abhanhu abhangi bhali bhadayimanile kunguno yalingeni ukumiso gabho. Hunagwene abhanhu bhenabho bhagabhuja giki, “liki ligumokaga umunyasamba?”

Zaburi 49:4-5.

KISWAHILI: NINI KINABWEKA HUMU NYASAMBA?

Alionekana myama poli mule Nyasamba aliyekuwa akibweka kama mbwa. Mnyama huyo, hakufahamika kwa watu wengi kwa sababu ya ugeni wake kwao. Ndiyo maana watu waliuliza kwamba, “nini kinabweka humu nyasamba?”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye hufanya utafiti wa kuvifahamu vitu vile ambavyo yeye havifahamu, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, hufanya utafiti wa kumwezesha kuvielewa vile ambavyo havifahamu, kwa sababu ya kutaka kuongeza ufahamu wake. Yeye hufanikiwa kuvielewa vitu vingi katika utekelezaji wa majukumu yake, kwa sababu ya kufanya utafiti huo, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyeluliza swali la kutaka kukifahamu kilichokuwa kinabheka mule Nyasamba, kwa sababu naye hufanya utafiti wa kuvifahamu vitu vile ambavyo havielewi, katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana yeye huuliza kwamba, “nini kinabweka humu nyasamba.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kufanya utafiti wa kutosha kuvielewa vile ambavyo ahawavielewi, katika maisha yao, ili waweze kupata mali za kutosha kuyaendesha vizuri maisha yao.

Zaburi 49:4-5.

ENGLISH: WHAT IS BARKING HERE IN NYASAMBA?

There was a wild animal in Nyasamba which was barking like a dog. This animal was not known to many people because of its strangeness to them. That is why people asked that, “What is barking here in Nyasamba?”

Such person does good research enough to enable him be aware of what he does not know, because he wants to increase his knowledge. He manages to know a good number of things in carrying out his duties, because of doing researches in his life.

This person resembles to the one who asked the question for knowing what was happening in Nyasamba, because he also does good research enough to understand things which he does not know, in his life. That is why he asks, “What is barking here in Nyasamba?”

This saying teaches people about doing good research enough to understand what they are not aware of, in their lives, so that they can get enough assets to run their lives well.

Psalm 49:4-5.

Bhalihoyi bhakima abho bhali bhatoililwe na ngosha umo. Aliyo lulu, ungosha ng’wunuyo, agaikala kuli nkima umo duhu, kunguno agantogwa weyi gukila abhangi. Hunagwene abhanhu aho bhadebha chene bhagabhawila abhakima bhangi bhenabho giki, “ng’wa henwa mhali.”

Luka 16:13.

Marko 10: 1-12.

KISWAHILI: MUMETELEKEZWA MITALA.

Walikuwepo wanawake walioolewa kwenye mitala na mwanamume mmoja. Lakini mwanamume huyo, aliishi kwa mwanamke mmoja tu, kwa sababu alimpenda zaidi kuliko wale wengine. Ndiyo maana watu walipogundua hivyo, waliwaambia wale wengine kwamba, “mumetelekezwa mitala.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye huanzisha kazi nyingi mpaka anashindwa kuzimaliza, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huanzisha kazi nyingi kwa wakati mmoja ambazo hushindwa kuzikamilisha kwa sababu ya kushindwa kujigawa, katika utumishi wake. Yeye huzitelekeza kazi zake hizo, kwa sababu ya kuzianzisha nyingi kwa wakati mmoja, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyeoa wanawake wengi akashindwa kuishi nao vizuri, kwa sababu naye huanzisha kazi nyingi kwa wakati mmoja mpaka anashindwa kuzimaliza vizuri, katika utumishi wake. Ndiyo maana watu huziambia kazi zake hizo kwamba, “mumetelekezwa mitala.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na ndoa ya mke mmoja na kutekeleza kazi moja kwa wakati mmoja, ili waweze kuzitunza vizuri familia zao, maishani mwao.

Marko 10: 1-12.

ENGLISH: YOU HAVE BEEN ABANDONED BY POLYGAMY.

There were women whom were married in polygamy to one man. But such man lived only with one woman, because he loved her more than the others. That is why when people found out, they told the others that, “You have been abandoned by polygamy.”

This saying is compared to a person who starts many tasks until he fails to finish them, in his life. Such person starts many tasks at the same time which he fails to complete because of not being able to divide himself, in his service. He neglects his works, because of starting a number of them at the same time, in his life.

This person is similar to the one who married many women and failed to live well with them, because he also starts many tasks at the same time until he fails to finish them well, in his service. That is why people say to his works that, “you have been abandoned by polygamy.”

This saying imparts in people an idea of having a monogamous marriage and doing one job at a time, so that they can take care of their families well, in their societies.

Luke 16:13.

Mark 10: 1-12.

Olihoyi munhu uyo agageniha ha bhukwiye. Umunhu ng’wunuyo, agimaga gusula bhuli hene mpaga nose agasula ng’wibhelele lya ng’wa nina bhukwi okwe, kunguno ya bhugimu bhokwe bhunubho. Hunagwene unina bhukwi okwe ng’winuyo, agang’wila giki, “ogima gusula ng’wifuma lyane.”

KISWAHILI: UMETHUBUTU KUCHUNGULIA KWENYE GHALA LANGU.

Alikuwepo mtu aliyeenda ugenini ukweni kwake. Mtu huyo, alithubutu kuchungulia kwenye ghala la mama mkwe wake, kwa sababu ya kutokuwa na mipaka kwake huko. Ndiyo maana mama mkwe wake alimwambia kwamba, “umethubutu kuchungulia kwenye ghala langu.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu asiyekuwa na adabu katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huthubutu kufanya mambo ya aibu mbele ya watu wake, kwa sababu ya kukosa adabu kwake huko. Yeye hujiaibisha mwenyewe kweye familia yake kwa sababu ya kutenda kwake mambo ya aibu mbele ya watu wake hao, maishani mwake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyethubutu kuchungulia kwenye ghala la mama mkwe wake huyo, kwa sababu naye hudiliki hutenda mambo ya aibu mbele ya watu wake hao, katika maisha yake. Ndiyo maana mmoja wa watu wake hao, humwambia kwamba, “umethubutu kuchungulia kwenye ghala langu.”

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na adabu ya kuacha kutenda mambo ya aibu mbele ya watu wao, ili waweze kuzilea vizuri familia zao, maishani mwao.

Yoshua Bin Sira 33:14.

Waefeso 6:1-3.

ENGLISH: YOU DARED TO LOOK INTO MY STOCKROOM.

There was a man who went abroad to the house of his wife’s mother. Such man dared to look into his mother-in-law’s warehouse, because of his not having limitations in life. That is why his mother-in-law told him that, “you dared to look into my stockroom.”

This saying is paralleled to a person who has no manners in his life. Such person dares to do shameful things in front of his people, because of his lack of good manners. He embarrasses himself front of his family members because of his shameful actions in front of them, in his life.

This person resembles the one who dared to look into his mother-in-law’s barn, because he also does shameful things in front of his people in life. That is why one of them, tells him that, “you dared to look into my stockroom.”

This saying teaches people about having good manners enough to stop doing shameful things in front of their people, so that they can raise their families well, in their societies.
