Malasu 9
1 Bagade Dawa: su Hou ida: iwane gala da fedege sia: agoane ea diasu gagui dagoi. E da bai amo golasu ifa bagade fesuale gala amo da: iya gagui dagoi.
Wisdom has built a house for herself, and set up seven pillars.
2 Amola e da lolo moma: ne, ohe medole legei dagoi. E da waini hano amola eno liligi gilisili, fafai da: iya ligisi.
She has killed her beasts; she has mingled her wine in a bowl, and prepared her table.
3 E da ea hawa: hamosu a: fini ilia da gadodafa sogebi moilai amo ganodini amoga wema: ne asunasi,
She has sent forth her servants, calling with a loud proclamation to the feast, saying,
4 Ilia da amane wesa, “Misa! Dunu dilia noga: le dawa: su hame gala! Misa!” Amola e da gagaoui dunuma amane sia: sa,
Whoso is foolish, let him turn aside to me: and to them that lack understanding she says,
5 “Misa! Na ha: i manu hahamoi amola waini hano noga: i na da hahamoi amo na misa.
Come, eat of my bread, and drink wine which I have mingled for you.
6 Hame dawa: su dunu ilia gilisisu fisili, na Bagade Dawa: su Hou amoma fa: no bobogema. Amasea dilia da esalusu ba: mu,” Bagade Dawa: su Hou da fedege sia: agoane sia: sa.
Leave folly, that you may reign for ever; and seek wisdom, and improve understanding by knowledge.
7 Di da gasa fi dunu amo ea hou hahamomusa: sia: sea, e da dima bu gadele sia: mu. Di da wadela: i hamosu dunuma gagabole sia: sea, di da bu se nabimu.
He that reproves evil [men] shall get dishonor to himself; and he that rebukes an ungodly [man] shall disgrace himself.
8 Amaiba: le, gasa fi dunu ea hou hahamomusa: mae sia: ma. Amane hamosea, e da di higamu. Be di da bagade dawa: su dunu ea hou hahamomusa: sia: sea, e da dima nodone, hahawane ba: mu.
Rebuke not evil [men], lest they should hate you: rebuke a wise [man], and he will love you.
9 Dia da bagade dawa: su dunu ida: iwane gala amoma olelesea, ea dawa: su hou da bu asigilamu. Amola di da moloidafa ida: iwane dunu amoma olelesea ea asigi dawa: su amola da bu asigilamu.
Give an opportunity to a wise [man], and he will be wiser: instruct a just man, and he will receive more [instruction].
10 Di da bagade dawa: su esalusu lamusa: dawa: sea, hidadea Hina Godema beda: ne nodoma. Di da Hadigi Hina Gode Ea hou noga: le dawa: sea, amo da dima Bagade Dawa: su Hou diala.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the counsel of saints is understanding: for to know the law is [the character] of a sound mind.
11 Bagade Dawa: su Hou da dia osobo bagadega esalusu amo sedagimu.
For in this way you shall live long, and years of your life shall be added to you.
12 Di da Bagade Dawa: su Hou moloiwane lasea, dia hou da bagadewane asigilamu. Be di da Bagade Dawa: su Hou higasea, di fawane da se nabimu.
Son, if you be wise for yourself, you shall also be wise for your neighbors; and if you should prove wicked, you alone will bear the evil. He that stays himself upon falsehoods, attempts to rule the winds, and the same will pursue birds in their fight: for he has forsaken the ways of his own vineyard, and he has caused the axles of his own husbandry to go astray; and he goes through a dry desert, and a [land] appointed to drought, and he gathers barrenness with his hands.
13 Gagaoui hou amo da uda afae da sia: gasa fi bagade sia: sa, agoai gala. Amola e da asigi dawa: su ida: iwane hame gala amola ea wadela: i hou dawa: beba: le, hame gogosiasa.
A foolish and bold woman, who knows not modesty, comes to lack a morsel.
14 Amola ea moilai ganodini ea diasu logoga o sogebi dabua gadodafa amoga esalebe ba: sa.
She sits at the doors of her house, on a seat openly in the streets,
15 Amola e da dunu amola uda hawa: hamona ahoabe ba: sea e da amane wele sia: sa,
calling to passers by, and to those that are going right on their ways;
16 “Gagaoui dunu! Dilia na diasuga misa!” E da gagaoui dunuma amane sia: sa,
[saying], Whoso is most senseless of you, let him turn aside to me; and I exhort those that lack prudence, saying,
17 “Hano dia wamolasea, amo hano da hedai bagadewane naba. Amola dia ha: i manu wamolasea da amo ha: i manu da hedai baligiliwane naba.”
Take and enjoy secret bread, and the sweet water of theft.
18 Dunu ilia ea sia: nabasea, ilia hame dawa: ea diasu amo da bogoi uli dogoi agoaiwane. Amola dunu ilia amoga ahoa. Amola dunu ilia da musa: ea diasuga asi da wali bogosu soge amoga sa: i dagoi. (Sheol h7585)
But he knows that mighty men die by her, and he falls in with a snare of hell. (Sheol h7585)
