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 teaching, And let thy heart observe my precepts!
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 shall they multiply 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 around 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.
Then shalt thou find favor and good success 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 the LORD with all thy heart, And lean not on 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 make thy paths plain.
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 the LORD, 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 shall be health to thy muscles, And moisture 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 the LORD with thy substance, And with the first-fruits of all thy 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 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 correction of the LORD, Nor be impatient under his chastisement!
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 the LORD loveth he chasteneth, 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 the man who findeth wisdom; Yea, the man who 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 profit thereof is greater than that of silver, And the gain thereof than that of 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.
More precious is she than pearls, And none of thy jewels is to be compared with 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 of her, And happy is every one who hath her in his grasp.
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.
The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; By understanding he framed 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 deep waters were cleft, And the clouds 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.
For they shall be life to thy soul, And grace to thy neck.
23 Amasea, di da logoga ahoasea, di da hame dafamu.
Then shalt thou go on 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 thou afraid of sudden alarm, Nor of the storm that is for 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 the LORD shall be thy confidence; Yea, he will keep thy foot from being taken.
27 Dia da fidimu logo ba: sea, eno dunuma hou ida: iwane hamoma amola fidima.
Withhold not kindness from those who need it, 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 to thy neighbor, “Go, and come again, And to-morrow I will give to thee,” 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, While he dwelleth securely by thee.
30 Eno dunuma di udigili mae sia: ga gegema. Amola bai hame galea, di mae sia: ga gegema.
Contend not with a man without cause, When he hath done thee no harm.
31 Amola di da gegebe dunu ilima di mae mudama. Amola, ea hamobe amane mae hamoma.
Envy not the oppressor, 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 man is the abomination of the LORD, But he is in friendship 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 the LORD is upon the house of the wicked, But he blesseth the dwelling 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 the scorners he treadeth scornfully, But giveth favor to 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 obtain honor, But fools shall bear off shame.
