Indirimbo ya Salomo

1 Ururirimbo rw’agaheta+, rukaba ari urwa Salomo+: 2 “Nansome n’ugusomagura kw’akanwa kiwe+, kuko ibimenyetso vyawe vy’urukundo biruta umuvinyu+. 3 Mu bijanye n’ugutamirana, amavuta yawe+ ni meza. Izina ryawe ni nk’amavuta asutswe+. Ni co gituma abigeme bagukunze. 4 Nkwega tujane+; ingo twiruke. Umwami yanyinjije mu vyumba vyiwe+! Reka tukunezererwe, tuguhimbarirwe. Tuvuge ibimenyetso vyawe vy’urukundo kuruta umuvinyu+. Bagukunze vyari bikwiriye+.

5 “Ndi umwigeme yirabura, ariko ateye igomwe, emwe bakobwa ba Yeruzalemu+; meze nk’amahema y’i Kedari+, yamara nk’ibitambara vy’ihema+ vya Salomo. 6 Ntimundabe kubera ko nsa n’inginagina, kubera ko izuba ryambabuye. Bene mama baranshavuriye; bangize umucunzi w’imirima y’imizabibu, naho umurima wanje w’imizabibu+, uwari rwanje, ntawucunze.

7 “Mbwira aho uragira+, yewe muntu umutima wanje wakunze+, aho uvyagiza umukuku ku mutaga. Kuki nocika nk’umugore atwikiriye mu kigandaro mu masho ya bagenzawe?”

8 “Nimba utabizi, ewe mwiza w’agahebuza mu bagore+, sohoka ubwawe ukurikire amakanda y’umukuku, uragire imyagazi yawe y’impene iruhande y’amataberenakulo y’abungere.”

9 “Nagusanishije n’ifarasi yanje ivyara yo mu mikogote ya Farawo+, ewe mwigeme nikundira+! 10 Amatama yawe arateye igomwe mu bisuko vy’imishatsi, n’izosi ryawe mu runigi rw’utuyeye+. 11 Tuzogukorera utuzingi tw’inzahabu+, hamwe n’udupfundo tw’ifeza.”

12 “Mu gihe umwami akiri ku meza yiwe y’umuzingi, narada*+ yanje irarekura ugutamirana kwayo+. 13 Umukunzi wanje kuri jewe ameze nk’isaho y’imira*+; hagati y’amabere+ yanje ni ho azorara. 14 Umukunzi wanje kuri jewe ameze nk’umusoko w’ihina+, mu mirima y’imizabibu y’i Eni-gedi+.”

15 “Raba! Uri mwiza, ewe mwigeme nikundira+! Raba! Uri mwiza. Amaso yawe ni ay’inuma+.”

16 “Raba! Uri mwiza+, mukunzi wanje, kandi urahimbaye. Ubusaswa+ bwacu kandi ni ubw’amababi. 17 Amatanga y’inzu yacu y’agahore ni amasederi+, imyamba yacu ikaba ibiti vy’imiberoshi.
