KISWAHILI: AMENUSA HARUFU.

Hapo zamani walikuwepo watu waliokuwa wanawinda wanyama poli na mbwa wao. Mbwa huyo alikuwa akimtafuta mnyama wanayemuwinda anapowapotea kwa kunusa harufu yake mpaka anampata. Ndiyo maana watu hao walisema kwamba, “amenusa harufu.”

Mtu huyo, huitumia vizuri akili yake hiyo kwa kuzifanyia utafiti kazi zake na kujibidisha kuzitekeleza vizuri mpaka anazimaliza kwa sababu ya akili yake hiyo, maishani mwake. Yeye hupata mali nyingi sana katika familia yake kwa sababu ya kuzitumia vizuri hivyo akili zake hizo, katika maisha yake hayo.

ENGLISH: IT HAS SNIFFED THE SMELL.

In the past, people hunted wild animals with the help of dogs. When the animal escaped or became lost, the dog would search for it by following its scent. The dog carefully sniffed the ground and tracked the smell until it found the animal. Because of this ability, people would say, “It has sniffed the smell.”

This saying is compared to a person who has intelligence and determination to search for success and wealth in life. Just as the dog follows the scent without giving up, a wise person uses his mind carefully. He studies his tasks, plans well, and works hard until he achieves his goals. Through persistence and intelligence, he succeeds and brings prosperity to his family.

That person is like the hunting dog that tracks the animal by its scent until it finds it. In the same way, he uses wisdom and careful thinking to identify opportunities and carry out his work successfully. Because of this effort and intelligence, he gains wealth and improves his life.

Therefore, when people say, “It has sniffed the smell,” they are praising someone who is clever, observant, and hardworking in seeking success.

This saying teaches people to use their minds wisely, work diligently, and to remain focused until they achieve their goals and bring prosperity to their families.

Genesis 10:9 – Nimrod was described as a mighty hunter before the Lord.

Genesis 25:27 – Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field.

Jeremiah 16:16 – The Lord speaks of sending many hunters who will search and find.

ENGLISH: YOU ARE TRADITIONAL DOCTORS

This saying refers to people who understand medicine and use their knowledge to help others. In the past, traditional doctors prepared herbal medicine to cure diseases because they cared deeply about the well-being of their communities. For this reason, people would say to them, “You are traditional doctors.”

This saying is compared to people who genuinely care about others in their daily lives. Such people dedicate themselves to helping their fellow human beings. They work hard, live peacefully with others, and quickly respond when someone is facing a problem. Their actions are motivated by love and compassion.

Just as traditional doctors use their medicine to heal the sick, these caring individuals use their wisdom, kindness, and effort to help solve the problems of others. Because of their willingness to serve and support their community, people describe them by saying, “You are traditional doctors.”

This saying teaches the importance of love, compassion, and readiness to help others solve their problems so that everyone may live happily and peacefully.  That is say, true love for others is shown through actions, by helping, healing, and supporting one another.

Exodus 20:17 – Teaches us not to covet what belongs to others, encouraging contentment and good relationships.

Ephesians 5:3 – Encourages people to live pure and honorable lives.

2 Peter 2:14 – Warns against sinful desires and urges people to live righteously.

KISWAHILI: ANAUMWA MKONO.

Alikuwepo mtu aliyekuwa anaumwa mkono katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, aliwasimulia wenzake juu ya maumivu yake kwa sababu ya kutaka kupata msaada wa kumwezesha kupona haraka. Yeye aliwaeleza wenzake hao vizuri, mpaka wakaelewa kuwa ana ugonjwa huo. Ndiyo maana walisema kwamba, “anaumwa mkono.”

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule ambaye anaumakini wa kuujali mwili wake kwa kuupekeleka hospitalini anapoumwa, katika maisha yake. Mtu huyo, huwahi kwenda hospitalini kwenda kupata matibabu mpaka anapona haraka kwa sababu ya umakini wake huo wa kuujali mwili wake anapojisikia maumivu, maishani mwake. Yeye hupona haraka maradhi yanayompata kwa sababu ya kuwahi kwenda kutibiwa hospitalini anapougua, katika maisha yake.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na yule aliyewahi kwenda hopitalini alipougua, kwa sababu naye huwahi kwenda hospitalini anapougua, maishani mwake. Ndiyo maana watu husema juu yake kwamba, “anaumwa mkono.”

Msemo huo hufundisha watu juu ya kuwa na umakini wa kuwawahisha wagonjwa wao kutibiwa hospitalini wanapoumwa, ili waweze kupona haraka vya kutosha kuendelea kuzitunza familia zao, maishani mwao.

ENGLISH: HE HAS A SORE HAND

This saying comes from the story of a man who had a sore hand. Because of the pain, he informed his friends about his condition so that he could get help and recover quickly. He explained his problem clearly until his friends understood that he was sick. That is why they said, “He has a sore hand.”

This saying is compared to a person who takes good care of his body by seeking medical treatment whenever he is sick. Such a person goes to the hospital as soon as he feels pain, receives proper treatment, and recovers quickly because of his attentiveness to his health. As a result, he does not allow illness to worsen in his life.

That person is similar to the man with the sore hand, because he does not hide his sickness or ignore it. Instead, he seeks help early. That is why people say about him, “He has a sore hand.”

This saying teaches people to take illness seriously and to ensure that sick people are taken to the hospital for treatment. By doing so, they can recover quickly and continue caring for their families and fulfilling their responsibilities in life.
