< Malasu 3 >

1 Nagofe! Na adi hou olelebe amo mae gogolema amola eso huluane dawa: laloma amola na sia: be defele hamoma.
My son, forget not my law; But let thy heart keep my commandments:
2 Amola na olelebe amoga di da hahawane ode bagohame esalusu amola didili hamosu ba: mu.
For length of days, and years of life, And peace, will they add to thee.
3 Dia eno dunu fidisu hou mae yolesima amola hohonosu maedafa hamoma. Amo hou huluane dia galogoaga noga: le idinigima amola dia dogoga fedege agoane dedema.
Let not kindness and truth forsake thee: Bind them about thy neck; Write them upon the tablet of thy heart:
4 Di agoane hamosea, Gode amola osobo bagade dunu ilia da dima hahawane ba: mu.
So shalt thou find favor and good understanding In the sight of God and man.
5 Hina Godema dia asigiga amola dogoga dawa: ma. Amola dia osobo bagadega dawa: amoga mae hamoma.
Trust in Jehovah with all thy heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding:
6 Be Hina Godema dawa: ma, adi liligi dia hamosea. Amasea, Hi fawane da logo moloidafa gala dima olelemu.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he will direct thy paths.
7 Di disu amane mae dawa: ma di fawane da dawa: gala, amo mae dawa: ma. Be Hina Gode Hima fawane nabima, amola wadela: i hou hamomu higama.
Be not wise in thine own eyes; Fear Jehovah, and depart from evil:
8 Dia amane hamosea, amo hou da manoma ida: iwane agoai ba: mu amola dia aiya da bahomu amola dia se da uhi dagoi ba: mu.
It will be health to thy navel, And marrow to thy bones.
9 Di da Godema dawa: beba: le, dia hamoi liligi gobele salasu iabe defele ima amola dia sogega bugibi liligi baligili noga: idafa Godema ima.
Honor Jehovah with thy substance, And with the first-fruits of all thine increase:
10 Dia amane hamosea, dia ifabi amo ha: i manu bagadewane ba: mu amola dia diasu ganodini gagoma amola waini bagade ba: muba: le, legemu da hamedei ba: mu.
So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, And thy vats shall overflow with new wine.
11 Nagofe! Gode E da di dawa: ma: ne se iasea, noga: le dawa: ma amola amo da Gode Ea sisasu amo dawa: ma.
My son, despise not the chastening of Jehovah; Neither be weary of his reproof:
12 Ada da ea mano amoma e da asigisa amoma dawa: ma: ne ema se iaha. Amo defele, Gode E da nowa dunu E da ema asigisia amoma se iasu amoga olelesa.
For whom Jehovah loveth he reproveth, Even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
13 Dunu nowa da Bagade Dawa: su Hou hogoi helesea, e da nodoi esalumu.
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, And the man that getteth understanding.
14 Silifa amola gouli amola ilia bidi lasu ilegei da bagade. Be Bagade Dawa: su Hou da amo ea bidi lasu ilegei da baligi dagoi.
For the gaining of it is better than the gaining of silver, And the profit thereof than fine gold.
15 Amola Bagade Dawa: su Hou amo da igi ida: iwane amo ea bidi lasu defei bagade baligisa. Amola Bagade Dawa: su Hou amo da liligi huluane dia hanai amo da baligi dagoi.
She is more precious than rubies: And none of the things thou canst desire are to be compared unto her.
16 Bagade Dawa: su Hou amo da dima hahawane esalusu iaha amola osobo bagadega fifi asi helemu. Amola di da amo hou ganodini bagade gaguiwane esalumu.
Length of days is in her right hand; In her left hand are riches and honor.
17 Bagade dawa: su esalusu hou amo da dima hou ida: iwane hamoma: ne olelesa amola di logo noga: iga oule ahoa.
Her ways are ways of pleasantness, And all her paths are peace.
18 Nowa da Bagade Dawa: su Hou amoma dawa: sea, ilia da nodoi esalumu. Amola Bagade Dawa: su Hou da hahawane esalusu ilima imunu.
She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: And happy is every one that retaineth her.
19 Gode E da ea Bagade Dawa: su Hou amo ganodini osobo bagade amo hahamoi amola ea dawa: su amoga da mu amola hahamoi dagoi.
Jehovah by wisdom founded the earth; By understanding he established the heavens.
20 Gode Ea Bagade Dawa: su Hou amoga hano amola mu mobi (amo da osobo bagadega gibu iaha) hamoi dagoi.
By his knowledge the depths were broken up, And the skies drop down the dew.
21 Nagofe! Dia Bagade Dawa: su Hou ida: iwane amo noga: le gaguma amola noga: le ba: ma. Amo liligi dia mae yolesima.
My son, let them not depart from thine eyes; Keep sound wisdom and discretion:
22 Amo hou amo da dima esalalalusu imunuyo. Amola nodosu hou di da ba: mu amola hahawane esalusu lamu.
So shall they be life unto thy soul, And grace to thy neck.
23 Amasea, di da logoga ahoasea, di da hame dafamu.
Then shalt thou walk in thy way securely, And thy foot shall not stumble.
24 Di da hamedafa beda: mu, golasea. Amola di da hahawane mae nedigili golamu, gasi ganodini.
When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: Yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.
25 Amola di da adi hou doaga: mu amoga di da hame beda: mu. Amola amo hou da fo mabe agoai gala wadela: i hamosu dunuma doaga: sa, be di da hame beda: mu.
Be not afraid of sudden fear, Neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh:
26 Hina Gode Ea da di gaga: mu. Amola Hi fawane da di sani ganodini mae sa: ima: ne hamomu.
For Jehovah will be thy confidence, And will keep thy foot from being taken.
27 Dia da fidimu logo ba: sea, eno dunuma hou ida: iwane hamoma amola fidima.
Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, When it is in the power of thy hand to do it.
28 Dia na: iyado amo ea fidima: ne sia: sea, amola asa o aiya amane mae sia: ma. Be e hedolowane waha fidima.
Say not unto thy neighbor, Go, and come again, And to-morrow I will give; When thou hast it by thee.
29 Dia na: iyado amo da: i dioma: ne mae sia: ma. Amola e da dia fi gadenene esala e da dima dafawaneyale dawa: sa.
Devise not evil against thy neighbor, Seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.
30 Eno dunuma di udigili mae sia: ga gegema. Amola bai hame galea, di mae sia: ga gegema.
Strive not with a man without cause, If he have done thee no harm.
31 Amola di da gegebe dunu ilima di mae mudama. Amola, ea hamobe amane mae hamoma.
Envy thou not the man of violence, And choose none of his ways.
32 Amola amai dunu ilima Hina Gode E da hahawane dogolegele hame ba: sa amola e da ilima bagadewane higasa. Be Hina Gode E da dunu nowa e da moloi hou hamosea, E da ilima Ea ilegesu olelesa.
For the perverse is an abomination to Jehovah; But his friendship is with the upright.
33 Hina Gode da wadela: i hou hamosu dunu ea sosogo ilima gagabusu iaha. Be nowa dunu da moloi hou hamosea, E da amo ea sosogo hahawane dogolegele fidisa.
The curse of Jehovah is in the house of the wicked; But he blesseth the habitation of the righteous.
34 Amola nowa dunu e da gasa fi hou hamosa amola hi hou da eno ilia hou baligisa dawa: sa, Hina Gode da hahawane hame ba: sa. Be E da nowa da moloi hou hamosa, ilima E da hahawane gala.
Surely he scoffeth at the scoffers; But he giveth grace unto the lowly.
35 Amola dunu amo da Bagade Dawa: su Hou hamosa, dunu eno da ilima nodomu. Be gagaoui dunu ilia hou hamobeba: le da baligili gogosia: su ba: mu.
The wise shall inherit glory; But shame shall be the promotion of fools.
