Malasu 19
1 Di da hame gaguiwane be moloidafa esalumu da defea. Be di da gagaoui ogogosu dunu agoai ba: mu da defea hame.
Better is a poor [man] that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
2 Di da dawa: su hame galea, be hahawane mae dawa: le momabo hamomusa: dawa: sea, amo da defea hame galebe. Amane hamosea, di da se nabimu.
Also that a person be without knowledge is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet maketh false steps.
3 Dunu mogili da hi hanai hou hamobeba: le, wadela: lesi dagoi ba: sa. Amasea, ilia da udigili, “Hina Gode da na wadela: lesi dagoi,” amane sia: sa.
The folly of man distorteth his way, and his heart is irritated against Jehovah.
4 Dunu bagohame ilia bagade gagui dunu ilima dogolegemusa: dawa: Be hame gagui dunu da dogolegei bagahame fawane gala, amola ilia dogolegei da ili hedolo yolesisa.
Wealth addeth many friends; but the poor is separated from his friend.
5 Dia fofada: nana amo ganodini ogogosea, di da se iasu ba: mu. Amola hobeamu logo hame ba: mu.
A false witness shall not be held innocent, and he that uttereth lies shall not escape.
6 Dunu huluane da mimogoa dunu amo ilia nodoi ba: ma: ne hamosa. Amola dunu huluane da dunu amo da ilima hahawane dogolegele iaha, amo dunuma dogolegemusa: dawa:
Many court the favour of a noble; and every one is friend to a man that giveth.
7 Dunu huluane amola ea sosogo fi da hame gagui dunu amo hame dogolegesa. E da dogolegei dunu hogoi helele, hamedafa ba: sa.
All the brethren of a poor [man] hate him; how much more do his friends go far from him: he pursueth [them] with words, — they are not [to be found].
8 Dina: di fidima! Dawa: su hou hogoi helema! Amasea, dia dawa: lai amo mae gogolema. Amasea, di da bagade gaguiwane ba: mu.
He that getteth sense loveth his own soul; he that keepeth understanding shall find good.
9 Nowa da fofada: su ganodini ogogosea, e da se iasu amoga hobeale masunu logo hame ba: mu. E da se iasu dafawanedafa ba: mu
A false witness shall not be held innocent, and he that uttereth lies shall perish.
10 Gagaoui dunu da liligi noga: idafa gaguli esalumu da defea hame. Amola udigili hawa: hamosu dunu da hina bagade ilia mano amoma hinawane esalumu da defea hame.
Good living beseemeth not a fool; how much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
11 Dawa: su dunu da ea mihanasea hedolo hedofasu dawa: Dunu da dima wadela: le hamosea, amo mae dawa: le, gogolema: ne olofomu da noga: idafa.
The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger, and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
12 Hina bagade ea ougi hou da laione wa: me ea gesenesu bagade agoane, be ea hahawane fidisu hou da gibu noga: le dabe agoai ba: sa.
The king's displeasure is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass.
13 Gagaoui mano da ea eda bagadewane gugunufinisimu. Amola gesa: gesa: i uda ea hou da hano dadadibi agoai gala.
A foolish son is the calamity of his father; and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
14 Dunu da diasu amola muni amo ea sosogo ilima nana labe dawa: Be Hina Gode Hifawane da uda amo da dawa: su noga: idafa gala, ema imunusa: dawa:
House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers; but a prudent wife is from Jehovah.
15 Di da hihi dabuli hou hanai galea, defea, udigili hihiwane esalu golabada. Be di da ha: i bagade ba: mu.
Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep, and the idle soul shall suffer hunger.
16 Gode Ea sema nabawane hamosea, di da fifi asi sedagimu. Be Gode Ea sema amo dia higasea, di da hedolo bogomu.
He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his soul; he that is careless of his ways shall die.
17 Di da hame gagui dunu ilima iasea, amo da Hina Gode Ema fa: no bu lamusa: iasu defele agoai gala. Amola Hina Gode da dia iasu defele dima dabe imunu.
He that is gracious to the poor lendeth unto Jehovah; and what he hath bestowed will he repay unto him.
18 Dia mano ilia manohadi esoga dawa: lamusa: dawa: beba: le, ilima dawa: ma: ne se iasu ima. Hame amasea, di da ilisu ilila: wadela: lesima: ne fidisa.
Chasten thy son, seeing there is hope; but set not thy soul upon killing him.
19 Hedolo mi hanasu dunu amo e da ea hamoi defele se nabimu da defea. Amaiwane dunu mae gaga: ma. Di da eso enoga amo hou bu hamosa: besa: le, mae gaga: ma.
A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment; for if thou deliver [him], yet thou must do it again.
20 Di da fada: i sia: noga: le nabasea amola bu noga: le dawa: ma: ne hanai galea, di da fa: no bagade dawa: su dunu agoane esalumu.
Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
21 Dunu da ilia hanai liligi hamomusa: ilegesa. Be Gode Ea hanaiga dawa: i amo fawane hamoi dagoi ba: mu.
Many are the thoughts in a man's heart, but the counsel of Jehovah, that doth stand.
22 Uasu hou da gogosiasu agoai gala. Hame gagui dunu ilia hou da ogogosu dunu ilia hou baligisa.
The charm of a man is his kindness; and a poor [man] is better than a liar.
23 Di da Hina Godema nabasu hou hamosea, esalusu sedade ba: mu. Amola di da gaga: le hahawane esalumu.
The fear of Jehovah [tendeth] to life, and he [that hath it] shall rest satisfied without being visited with evil.
24 Dunu mogili da baligili hihi dabuliba: le, ilia ha: i manu loboga lale manu higasa.
A sluggard burieth his hand in the dish, and will not even bring it to his mouth again.
25 Gasa fi hame dawa: su dunu ilima dawa: ma: ne se imunu da defea. Amasea, dawa: su hame dunu ilia da houdafa dawa: mu. Di da bagade dawa: su galea, dunu eno da dima dawa: ma: ne olelesea, di da dawa: lamu.
Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware; reprove the intelligent, and he will understand knowledge.
26 Nowa da edama giadofale hamosea o ea ame ea diasuga mae esaloma: ne sefasisia, amo da wadela: le gugunufinisisu dunu.
He that ruineth [his] father and chaseth away [his] mother is a son that causeth shame and bringeth reproach.
27 Nagofe! Di da dawa: lamusa: hogolalu yolesea, di da dia musa: dawa: lai amola bu gogolemu.
Cease, my son, to hear the instruction which causeth to stray from the words of knowledge.
28 Giadofabe ba: su dunu da eno dunuma se imunusa: dawa: sea, moloidafa fofada: su hou da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: sa. Wadela: i hamosu dunu ilia da wadela: i hou hamomu bagade hanai gala.
A witness of Belial scorneth judgment, and the mouth of the wicked swalloweth down iniquity.
29 Gasa fi gagaoui dunu da se nabima: ne fasu dafawane ba: mu.
Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of the foolish.
