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 commandments with thee.
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 live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
3 Na olelebe liligi eso huluane dawa: laloma amola fedege agoane, dia dogoga noga: le dedema.
Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine 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 unto wisdom, Thou [art] my sister; and call understanding [thy] kinswoman:
5 Ilia da dia hou huluane ouligili, di da inia uda amoma hobeamu amola ea sefe sia: amo hame nabimu.
That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger [which] flattereth with her words.
6 Eso afaega na da na diasu fo misa: ne agenesi amoga ba: lalu.
For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
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 beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
8 Amo goi da uda afadafa ea diasu gadenene misini,
Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
9 eso amola sa: i dagoi gadenene gasi dagoi.
In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark 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, there met him a woman [with] the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
11 Goe uda amo da gasa fi hamosu uda amola gogosiasu hame dawa: i. E da moilai logoga lalusu.
(She [is] loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
12 E da logoga udigili lalu amola bidi lama: ne diasu labe soge ganodini amola dunu hogosa lalala.
Now [is she] without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
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,
So she caught him, and kissed him, [and] with an impudent face said unto him,
14 “Wali na da gobele salasu hamoi amola amo gobele salasu hu da na diasuga diala.
[I have] peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.
15 Amaiba: le na da na diasu yolesili di hogola misi amola wali na da di ba: i dagoi.
Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, 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 decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved [works], with fine linen of 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 take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.
19 Di da na dunuba: le mae beda: ma. E da soge sedaga asi esala.
For the goodman [is] not at home, he is gone a long journey:
20 E da su bagade gaguli asi. E da hedolo hame bu misunu. E da esala hi aduna aligimu.”
He hath taken a bag of money with him, [and] will come home at the day appointed.
21 Goe uda ea sefe sia: bagadewane sia: beba: le, goi ayeligi da dafai dagoi.
With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.
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.
He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
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 a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it [is] for his life.
24 Wali na gofelali, dilia na sia: noga: le nabima. Noga: le dawa: ma!
Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
25 Agoaiwane uda amo ea sefe sia: mae nabima! Ema mae fa: no bobogema!
Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in 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: yea, many strong [men] have been slain by her.
