Malasu 5
1 Nagofe! Noga: le fili amola na dawa: su hou amola asigi dawa: su nabima.
My son, pay attention to my wisdom, listen carefully as I explain what makes sense,
2 Amasea, di da hou noga: i hamomu amola di da noga: le sia: beba: le, di da bagade dawa: su lai dagoi amo olelemu.
so you can make good decisions and protect knowledge with your lips.
3 Eno dunu ea uda amo ea sia: amola lafi da agime hani ea heda amo defele agoai gala amola ea nonogosu hou da olife susuligi agoai ba: sa.
For the lips of an immoral woman may taste as sweet as honey, the kisses of her mouth may be as smooth as oil,
4 Be inia uda adole lasu hou da dagosea da dima se amola da: i dioi liligi fawane ba: sa.
but in the end what you get from her is the bitterness of wormwood and the sharp pain of being cut with a two-edged sword.
5 Agoai uda da di sigi osobo bagadega bogosu amoga oule ahoa. Amola logo ea ahoabe amo da bogosu amoga doaga: musa: ahoa. (Sheol h7585)
She leads you down to death; she takes you down to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
6 E da moloi bagade dawa: su esalu logo amoga hame ahoa. Be e da amo logo fisili, udigili lala amola fa: no hou doaga: mu amo da ea hame dawa:
She doesn't follow the path that leads to life—she wanders away and doesn't even know she's lost.
7 Nagofe! Dilia waha na sia: nabima! Amola mae gogolema na sia: be amo.
Now, my son, listen to me; don't reject what I have taught you.
8 Agoai uda amoba: le gasigama amola mae gadenema. Amola ea idilibu holei amoga maedafa gadenema.
Stay far away from her! Don't go near the door of her house!
9 Dia amo uda amoga ahoasea, dunu da dima hame nodomu, amola dunu ilia lobo da: iya di da bogomu amola di goi esalea.
Otherwise you'll surrender your honor to others, and your character to cruel people.
10 Dafawane! Eno dunu da misini dia liligi ilia gaguli masunu amola dia hawa: hamoi helei liligi amo enoga lamu.
Strangers will spend your wealth; everything you've worked for will go to someone else.
11 Di da bogomusa: gogonomasa dialea amola dia hu amola momoge da na dagoiba: le, di da geloga: idafa ba: mu.
When you come to the end of your life you'll moan in pain as disease destroys your body.
12 Amola di da amane sia: mu, “Na da abuliga dawa: bela: ? Amola na da abuliga eno dunu ilia mololesibi amo hame nabibala: ?
You'll say, “How I used to hate discipline, and my mind rebelled against being corrected!
13 Amola na da nabimu galu, be na olelesu dunu ilia sia: hame nabi.
I didn't listen to what my teacher said. I didn't pay attention to my instructors.
14 Amasea, na da dunu eno ilia si da: iya gogosia: i bagade hamoi dagoi ba: i.
Now I'm on the verge of being completely disgraced before everyone in the community.”
15 Amaiba: le noga: le dawa: ma! Dia udadafa ema dafawaneyale dawa: ma. Ema fawane asigima.
Drink water from your own cistern, flowing water from your own well.
16 Di da eno uda gilisili golabeba: le mano lasea, amo mano da fa: no dia hou hame fidimu.
Why should your springs be spilled outside, your streams of water poured out in the streets?
17 Ga fi dunu hame, be dia manodafa amo da asigilasea, di fidimu da defea.
Keep them for yourselves alone. They're not for you to share with strangers.
18 Amaiba: le, dia udadafa ema nodoma amola uda di labe ema fawane hahawane dawa: ma.
May your spring of water be blessed, and may you enjoy the wife you married when you were young.
19 Amola e da noga: idafa amola ida: iwane ba: sa. Amola uda di lai amo ali fawane gilisili golama amola ali fawane da: i gilisima amola uda e da dima fawane dawa: loma amola asigima.
May she be to you a loving deer, a graceful doe. May her breasts always be intoxicating to you; may you be drunk on her love forever.
20 Nagofe! Di da abuliba: le uda enoma magesa: ima: bela: ? Amola di da abuliba: le inia uda ea hou baligili hanama: bela: ?
Why, my son, become intoxicated with an immoral woman? Why embrace the breasts of a woman who acts like a prostitute?
21 Amola liligi dia adi hamobe huluane da Gode E ba: lala. Amola di habi ahoasea, E da eso huluane ba: lala.
For the Lord sees everything people do, the Lord investigates everywhere they go.
22 Wadela: le hamosu dunu ea hou da ema sani agoaiwane. E da hi wadela: i hou sani agoane amo ganodini daha.
The wicked are trapped by their evil actions; the cords of their sins tie them up.
23 Amola agoaiwane dunu da ea hou amoga hinawane esalumu hame dawa: Amola e da ea gagaoui hou amo ganodini hina: bogomu.
They will die because they lack self-control, lost because of their great stupidity.
