Malasu 7
1 Nagofe! Dawa: ma na adi sia: be di mae gogolema amola na dima hamoma: ne sia: be maedafa gogolema!
My son, keep my words, and lay up my precepts with thee. Son,
2 Na sia: be amo defele hamoma, amasea di da esalumu. Amola di da dia si noga: le ouligibi defele, na olelebe amo noga: le fa: no bobogema.
Keep my commandments, and thou shalt live: and my law as the apple of thy eye:
3 Na olelebe liligi eso huluane dawa: laloma amola fedege agoane, dia dogoga noga: le dedema.
Bind it upon thy fingers, write it upon the tables of thy heart.
4 Di Bagade Dawa: su Hou amoma hou dia dalusi amoma hamobe defele hamoma amola dawa: su dia dogo ganodini diala amo dia na: iyado ema hamobe defele hamoma.
Say to wisdom: Thou art my sister: and call prudence thy friend,
5 Ilia da dia hou huluane ouligili, di da inia uda amoma hobeamu amola ea sefe sia: amo hame nabimu.
That she may keep thee from the woman that is not thine, and from the stranger who sweeteneth her words.
6 Eso afaega na da na diasu fo misa: ne agenesi amoga ba: lalu.
For I look out of the window of my house through the lattice,
7 Amola na ba: loba goi logoga manebe ba: i. Ilia da asigi dawa: su noga: i hame galu amola afadafa da gagaoui dunu agoai ba: i.
And I see little ones, I behold a foolish young man,
8 Amo goi da uda afadafa ea diasu gadenene misini,
Who passeth through the street by the corner, and goeth nigh the way of her house.
9 eso amola sa: i dagoi gadenene gasi dagoi.
In the dark, when it grows late, in the darkness and obscurity of the night,
10 Amo uda e da hina: da: i bidi lasu uda defele abula ida: iwane ga: i amola e da hou ilegelalu.
And behold a woman meeteth him in harlot’s attire prepared to deceive souls; talkative and wandering,
11 Goe uda amo da gasa fi hamosu uda amola gogosiasu hame dawa: i. E da moilai logoga lalusu.
Not bearing to be quiet, not able to abide still at home,
12 E da logoga udigili lalu amola bidi lama: ne diasu labe soge ganodini amola dunu hogosa lalala.
Now abroad, now in the streets, now lying in wait near the corners.
13 Amola na ba: i, amalalu amo uda e da goi ayeligi amo ea galogoa amoga ea lobo la: boloi dagoi amo lalu e da amo goi nonogonanu e hedolowane si damana ba: i amalalu e amane sia: i,
And catching the young man, she kisseth him, and with an impudent face, flattereth, saying:
14 “Wali na da gobele salasu hamoi amola amo gobele salasu hu da na diasuga diala.
I vowed victims for prosperity, this day I have paid my vows.
15 Amaiba: le na da na diasu yolesili di hogola misi amola wali na da di ba: i dagoi.
Therefore I am come out to meet thee, desirous to see thee, and I have found thee.
16 Na da hedolowane midunusa: diaheda: su ida: iwane hahamoi dagoi amo dedebosu abula ida: iwane gala amo da na Idibidi soge amoga gaguli misi.
I have woven my bed with cords, I have covered it with painted tapestry, brought from Egypt.
17 Na da amo ganodini manoma ida: iwane gala amo me, a:lou, sinamone amola amo manoma gabusiga: ida: iwane gala fafai da: iya sogadigi.
I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
18 Misa! Na amola di gilisili hedelala soge hadigimu. Ani da gilisili nonogomuba: le hahawane bagade ba: mu.
Come, let us be inebriated with the breasts, and let us enjoy the desired embraces, till the day appear.
19 Di da na dunuba: le mae beda: ma. E da soge sedaga asi esala.
For my husband is not at home, he is gone a very long journey.
20 E da su bagade gaguli asi. E da hedolo hame bu misunu. E da esala hi aduna aligimu.”
He took with him a bag of money: he mill return home the day of the full moon.
21 Goe uda ea sefe sia: bagadewane sia: beba: le, goi ayeligi da dafai dagoi.
She entangled him with many words, and drew him away with the flattery of her lips.
22 Amo dunu e da amo sia: nababeba: le, e da hedolowane amo uda fa: no bobogele diasuga asi. Fedege sia: e da bulamagau bogoma: ne fasu sogebi amoga oule ahoasu defele asi. Fedege sia: eno e da ‘dia’ ohe amo da sani sa: ima: ne hahawane ahoa amo defele asi.
Immediately he followeth her as an ox led to be a victim, and as a lamb playing the wanton, and not knowing that he is drawn like a fool to bonds,
23 Amo ‘dia’ ohe e da hame dawa: i ea dogo ganodini souga gala: be defele e da bogomu da hame dawa: i. Amo dunu ea hamobe da sio afae e hagili ahoanebe defele ba: i. Amo sio e da segega: i amo mae ba: le ahoabe amola sio e amo segega: i amo hame dawa: i amoga gaguli bogomu amo hame dawa: i.
Till the arrow pierce his liver: as if a bird should make haste to the snare, and knoweth not that his life is in danger.
24 Wali na gofelali, dilia na sia: noga: le nabima. Noga: le dawa: ma!
Now therefore, my son, hear me, and attend to the words of my mouth.
25 Agoaiwane uda amo ea sefe sia: mae nabima! Ema mae fa: no bobogema!
Let not thy mind be drawn away in her ways: neither be thou deceived with her paths.
26 Amo uda e da dunu bagohame ilia hou wadela: lesi dagoi. Amola dunu bagohame idimu hame gala, ilia da ea hou hamobeba: le bogoi dagoi.
For she hath cast down many wounded, and the strongest have been slain by her.
