Ngeche 25
1 Magi e ngeche mamoko mag Solomon, mane jo-Hezekia ruodh Juda ondiko.
Also these ben the Parablis of Salomon, whiche the men of Ezechie, kyng of Juda, translatiden.
2 Wamiyo Nyasaye duongʼ kuom gik ma opando; to lero tiend weche en duongʼ ni ruodhi.
The glorie of God is to hele a word; and the glorie of kyngis is to seke out a word.
3 Mana kaka polo bor kendo piny tut, e kaka chuny ruodhi ngʼeyo tek.
Heuene aboue, and the erthe bynethe, and the herte of kyngis is vnserchable.
4 Ka ogol chilo kuom fedha, to jatheth koro nigi gimoro mar theth;
Do thou a wei rust fro siluer, and a ful cleene vessel schal go out.
5 ka ogol ngʼat marach e nyim ruoth, eka kom ruodhe ibiro guro motegno e tim makare.
Do thou awei vnpite fro the cheer of the kyng, and his trone schal be maad stidfast bi riytfulnesse.
6 Kik imiri duongʼ iwuon e nyim ruoth, kata bedo kar jomadongo,
Appere thou not gloriouse bifore the kyng, and stonde thou not in the place of grete men.
7 nimar ber moloyo owachni niya, “Bi ka,” moloyo ka igoli e nyim jomadongo.
For it is betere, that it be seid to thee, Stie thou hidur, than that thou be maad low bifore the prince.
8 Gima wangʼi oseneno kik ikel mapiyo kirikni e nyim od bura; nimar ibiro timo angʼo achien ka jabuti oketi e wichkuot?
Brynge thou not forth soone tho thingis in strijf, whiche thin iyen sien; lest aftirward thou maist not amende, whanne thou hast maad thi frend vnhonest.
9 Ka iloso wach manie kindi gi jabuti, to kik idhi ihul wach malingʼ-lingʼ mar ngʼato;
Trete thi cause with thi frend, and schewe thou not priuyte to a straunge man;
10 nono to ngʼat moro mowinji biro keti e wichkuot; mi huma mari marach ok nogiki.
lest perauenture he haue ioye of thi fal, whanne he hath herde, and ceesse not to do schenschipe to thee. Grace and frenschip delyueren, whiche kepe thou to thee, that thou be not maad repreuable.
11 Wach mowach e kinde mowinjore, chalo gi olemo mar dhahabu moketie tawo molos gi fedha.
A goldun pomel in beddis of siluer is he, that spekith a word in his time.
12 Mana kaka tere mar dhahabu kata tigo mar dhahabu maber e kaka siem mar ngʼat mariek mokwerogo ngʼat machiko ite.
A goldun eere ryng, and a schinynge peerle is he, that repreueth a wijs man, and an eere obeiynge.
13 Mana kaka ngʼich mar pe e kinde mar keyo, e kaka jaote ma ja-adiera chalo ne ngʼat moore, omoro chuny ruodhe.
As the coold of snow in the dai of heruest, so a feithful messanger to hym that sente `thilke messanger, makith his soule to haue reste.
14 Kaka boche polo gi yamo maonge koth, e kaka ngʼat mawuorore gi mich ma ok dochiw.
A cloude and wind, and reyn not suynge, is a gloriouse man, and not fillynge biheestis.
15 Horuok mos nyalo loko chuny ruoth, to lep mamuol nyalo toyo chogo.
A prince schal be maad soft bi pacience; and a soft tunge schal breke hardnesse.
16 Ka iyudo mor kich, to cham mana moromo, mathoth ahinya, nyalo miyo ingʼogi.
Thou hast founde hony, ete thou that that suffisith to thee; lest perauenture thou be fillid, and brake it out.
17 Kik iter tiendi pile e od jabuti, dhiyo kuno pile, biro miyo ochayi.
Withdrawe thi foot fro the hous of thi neiybore; lest sum tyme he be fillid, and hate thee.
18 Mana kaka arungu kata ligangla; kata asere mabith, e kaka ngʼatno machiwo neno ma ok adiera kuom ngʼat ma gidakgo machiegni.
A dart, and a swerd, and a scharp arowe, a man that spekith fals witnessing ayens his neiybore.
19 Mana kaka lak marach kata tielo mongʼol e kaka keto geno kuom jogo ma ok jo-adiera e kinde mag chandruok.
A rotun tooth, and a feynt foot is he, that hopith on an vnfeithful man in the dai of angwisch,
20 Mana ka ngʼat ma lonyo law midongʼ duk e ndalo ngʼich, kata kaka olo chumbi e adhola, e kaka ngʼat ma wero wende ne chuny mool.
and leesith his mentil in the dai of coold. Vynegre in a vessel of salt is he, that singith songis to the worste herte. As a mouyte noieth a cloth, and a worm noieth a tree, so the sorewe of a man noieth the herte.
21 Ka jasiki odenyo, to miye chiemo ocham; ka riyo oloye, miye pi omodhi.
If thin enemy hungrith, feede thou him; if he thirstith, yyue thou watir to hym to drinke;
22 Ka itimo kamano, ibiro choko chuk mach maliel e wiye, kendo Jehova Nyasaye biro miyi pok.
for thou schalt gadere togidere coolis on his heed; and the Lord schal yelde to thee.
23 Kaka yamb nyandwat kelo koth, e kaka lep mafuongʼo wach kelo miero.
The north wind scatereth reynes; and a sorewful face distrieth a tunge bacbitinge.
24 Ber dak e kona mar wi ot moloyo dak gi dhako maralep.
It is betere to sitte in the corner of an hous without roof, than with a womman ful of chidyng, and in a comyn hous.
25 Mana kaka pi mangʼich chalo ne chuny mool, e kaka wach maber moa e piny mabor chalo.
Coold watir to a thirsti man; and a good messanger fro a fer lond.
26 Mana kaka soko motimo chwodho kata aora moduwore chalo e kaka ngʼat makare machiwo thuolo ne jaricho.
A welle disturblid with foot, and a veyne brokun, a iust man fallinge bifore a wickid man.
27 Ok ber chamo mor kich mathoth, kata ok en gima longʼo mondo ngʼato odwar luor monego miye owuon.
As it is not good to hym that etith myche hony; so he that is a serchere of maieste, schal be put doun fro glorie.
28 Mana kaka dala maduongʼ ma ohingane omukore mogore piny e kaka ngʼatno ma ok nyal ritore owuon.
As a citee opyn, and with out cumpas of wallis; so is a man that mai not refreyne his spirit in speking.
