Malasu 8
1 Nabima! Bagade Dawa: su Hou ida: iwane da dima wele sia: nana. Asigi dawa: su hou da sia: daha.
Does not wisdom cry out, and understanding put forth her voice?
2 Bagade Dawa: su Hou da goumi da: iya amola logo bega: logo bulufalegeiga lela.
On the top of high places by the way, where the paths meet, she stands.
3 Amola moilai bai bagade sogebi amola logo holei gadenene e da lela agoane wele sia: nana,
Beside the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors, she cries aloud:
4 “Na dilima sia: sa! Dunu fifi asi gala! Na da wele sia: nana! Osobo bagade fi huluane dilima.
To you, O men, I call. And my voice is to the sons of men.
5 Nowa dunu asigi dawa: su hame galea, asigi dawa: su ida: iwane gala amo lama, amola asigi dawa: su noga: le dawa: ma. Di da gagaoui esalabala: ? Asigi dawa: su ida: iwane lama.
O ye simple, understand prudence, and, ye fools, be of an understanding heart.
6 Nabima! Na sia: amo da ida: iwane gala. Na sia: su da moloidafa fawane.
Hear, for I will speak excellent things. And the opening of my lips shall be right things.
7 Na adi sia: be amo da dafawanedafa. Na da ogogosu bagade higasa.
For my mouth shall utter truth. And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
8 Liligi na sia: be amo da dafawane. Afae da ogogole hame sia: sa amola giadofale hame ahoa.
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness. There is nothing crooked or perverse in them.
9 Amola dunu ea dogo ganodini, hadigi amola asigi dawa: su gala, amo dunu da na sia: noga: le ba: sa.
They are all plain to him who understands, and right to those who find knowledge.
10 Silifa liligi amoma mae dawa: ma. Be na olelebe liligi amo dawa: ma. Amola noga: idafa gouli mae dawa: ma. Be na sia: ida: iwane, amoma dawa: ma.
Receive my instruction, and not silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold.
11 Na da Bagade Dawa: su Hou. Na da ida: iwanedafa amola na da igi su bagadega lasu liligi baligi dagoi, amola dia hanasu liligi baligi dagoi.
For wisdom is better than rubies, and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
12 Na da Bagade Dawa: su Hou. Na da asigi dawa: su hou amola moloidafa fofada: su hou dawa:
I, wisdom, have made prudence my dwelling, and find out knowledge and discretion.
13 Nowa da Hina Godema nodone dawa: be da wadela: i hou amola ledo huluane higasa. Na da amoma higasa amola nowa da hifawane hina: dio gaguia gadosea amola wadela: i hou amola ogogosu hamonanebe, amo huluane na higasa.
The fear of Jehovah is to hate evil. Pride, and arrogance, and the evil way, and the perverse mouth, do I hate.
14 Na da adi hamomusa: ilegesea na da didili hamomu. Na da asigi dawa: su gala amola na da gasa bagade gala.
Counsel is mine, and sound knowledge. I am understanding, I have might.
15 Na da hina bagade dunu fidisa amola ouligisu dunu noga: le ouligima: ne fidisa.
By me kings reign, and rulers decree justice.
16 Osobo bagade ouligisu dunu huluanedafa da na fidibiba: le, ouligisu hou hamosa.
By me rulers rule, and ranking men, even all the judges of the earth.
17 Na da nowa dunu da nama asigisia, ilima asigisa. Amola nowa da na hogosea e da ba: mu.
I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently shall find me.
18 Na da liligi bagade amola mimogo hou amola didili hamosu hou amo osobo bagadega esalebe dunu ilima imunusa: dawa:
Riches and honor are with me, durable wealth and righteousness.
19 Adi liligi dia nama lasea amo da liligi ida: iwane. Amo da gouli liligi amola silifa liligi baligi dagoi.
My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold, and my revenue than choice silver.
20 Amola eso huluane na da moloi hou amo ganodini ahoana. Na da moloidafa fofada: su hamonana.
I walk in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of justice,
21 Na da nowa dunu da nama asigi galea, ilima liligi bagade iaha. Na da gobolo liligi noga: idafa amoga ilia diasu nabalesisa.
that I may cause those who love me to inherit substance, and that I may fill their treasuries.
22 Musa: hemonega, Hina Gode da osobo bagade mae hamone, E da na hidadea hahamoi, amalalu liligi huluane da hahamoi.
Jehovah possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 Hina Gode da na bisili musa: dafa hahamoi, amalalu osobo bagade hahamoi.
I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, before the earth was,
24 Na da hidadea lalelegei amola hano wayabo amola hano bubuga: su da fa: no hahamoi.
when there were no depths. I was brought forth when there were no fountains abounding with water,
25 Amola Hina Gode da na hidadea hahamoi amalalu goumi amola agolo da fa: no hahamoi.
before the mountains were settled, before the hills. I was brought forth
26 Gode da osobo bagade amola osobo su hahamoi. Be na (Bagade Dawa: su Hou) da amo bisili esalu.
while as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the beginning of the dust of the world.
27 Gode da mu amo gadodili ligisia amola hano wayabo bagade amola mu mae gilisima: ne alalo hamonoba, na da amogai esalebe ba: i.
When he established the heavens, I was there. When he set a circle upon the face of the deep,
28 Amola e da mu mobi hahamoi mu da: iya gado amola e da hano wayabo bagade amola hahamonoba, na da esalebe ba: i.
when he made firm the skies above, when the fountains of the deep became strong,
29 Amola E Hi sia: defele hano wayabo da heda: i amola hano wayabo da Hi sia: i defele osoboba: le hame heda: i, amola E da osobo bagade gagumusa: osobo bagade ea bai hidadea ilegeloba, na da esalebe ba: i.
when he gave to the sea its bound that the waters should not transgress his commandment, when he marked out the foundations of the earth,
30 Amo esoga na amola da Hina Gode guga esalu. Na da fedege agoane, diasu gagumusa: dedesu dunu agoai E guga esalu. Na da esalebeba: le, E da hahawane galu amola na da Ema nodonanu.
then I was by him, a master workman. And I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him,
31 Amola na da osobo bagade amoma hahawane ba: i amola fifi asi gala huluane ilima hahawane bagade galu.
rejoicing in his habitable earth. And my delight was with the sons of men.
32 Wali goi ayeligi dilia! Noga: le nabima! Amola na sia: be defele hamoma amasea di da hahawane ganumu.
Now therefore, ye sons, hearken to me. For blessed are those who keep my ways.
33 Nabima! Dilia na olelei defele hamoma. Amola dilia na olelei liligi amoma mae higama, amasea di da hahawane esalumu.
Hear instruction, and be wise, and do not refuse it.
34 Nowa dunu da na bagade dawa: su sia: nabasea, e da hahawanedafa ba: mu. Nowa da eso huluane na logo holeiga bagade dawa: su lama: ne lelea, da hahawane ba: mu.
Blessed is the man who hears me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
35 Nowa dunu da na hogole ba: sea, da esalusu ba: mu amola Hina Gode da amo dunu hahawane dogolegele ba: mu.
For he who finds me finds life, and shall obtain favor of Jehovah.
36 Be nowa dunu da nama hame masea, e da hisu wadela: sa. Nowa dunu da nama higasea, e da bogosu ba: mu!” Bagade Dawa: su Hou da fedege sia: agoane sia: sa.
But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul. All those who hate me love death.
