< Proverbs 14 >

1 Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish one tears it down with her own hands.
Knare antahi'zane a'mo'a noma'a erise higeno, naga'amo'a so'e nehie. Hianagi neginagi a'mo'a, noma'ane naga'anena eri haviza nehie.
2 He who walks in uprightness fears the LORD, but the one who is devious in his ways despises Him.
Fatgo avu'avaza'ma nevaririmofona, Ra Anumzamofo kore'zamo agu'afina me'ne. Hianagi iza'o kefo avu'ava'ma nehimo'a Ra Anumzamofona korera hunonte.
3 The proud speech of a fool brings a rod to his back, but the lips of the wise protect them.
Neginagi vahe'mo'ma kema hiankemo'a, agrazante kano eri agumpi nente. Hianagi fatgo vahe'mofo kemo'a, agu'vazigeno knare huno nemanie.
4 Where there are no oxen, the manger is empty, but an abundant harvest comes through the strength of the ox.
Bulimakao omani'nea afu nompina avusese nehie. Hianagi hanave bulimakaomo'a rama'a ne'za erifore nehie.
5 An honest witness does not deceive, but a dishonest witness pours forth lies.
Tamage huno kemahu ne'mo'ma, keagare'ma oti'nea ne'ma aza huno huama haniana, tamage hugahie. Hianagi havigema hu ne'mo'a keagare'ma oti'nea ne'ma kema aza huno'ma haniana havige hugahie.
6 A mocker seeks wisdom and finds none, but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.
Hagi kiza zokago kehu vahe'mo'ma, knare antahizanku'ma hakesuno'a, keno eri fore osugahie. Hianagi ama' antahi'zane vahe'mo'a, fru huno antahi'zana erigahie.
7 Stay away from a foolish man; you will gain no knowledge from his speech.
Knare antahi'zama omane vahepintira, mani agetaginka manio, na'ankure knare antahi'zana e'origahane.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to discern his way, but the folly of fools deceives them.
Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a kama vania kana antahi ani' hu'neno vugahie. Hianagi neginagi vahe'mo'za zamagrazmi rezmatga nehaze.
9 Fools mock the making of amends, but goodwill is found among the upright.
Neginagi vahe'mo'za kumimofo nona'ama erizankura, hunte'za kiza zokago nehaze. Hianagi fatgo avu'ava'ene vahepina, vahe'ma antahiami' avu'ava zana me'ne.
10 The heart knows its own bitterness, and no stranger shares in its joy.
Mago'mago vahe'mo, agria'a rimpa aka'zana antahino keno nehie. Hagi mago'mo'e huno rumofo musezana mika'a erinte amara osugahie.
11 The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish.
Kefo vahe'mofo nomo'a, haviza hugahie. Hianagi fatgo vahe'mofo seli nomo'a, hanavetino megahie.
12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.
Mago kamo'a vahe avurera knare hugahianagi, avaririno atuparega vaniana fri'za me'ne.
13 Even in laughter the heart may ache, and joy may end in sorrow.
Musema huzampinena rimpa akazana me'ne. Hagi musema hu'zamo'a vagamaresigeno'a, asuragi'za egahie.
14 The backslider in heart receives the fill of his own ways, but a good man is rewarded for his ways.
Zamentinti osu vahe'mo'za zamagrama hu'nesaza zamavu'zmava zante, mizana erigahaze. Hagi knare vahe'mo'a agra'a, hu'nesia avu'ava zante, mizana erigahie.
15 The simple man believes every word, but the prudent man watches his steps.
Osi'a antahintahima eri'naza vahe'mo'za, maka zankura zamentinti nehaze. Hianagi knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a kama vu zama'afina kva nehie.
16 A wise man fears and turns from evil, but a fool is careless and reckless.
Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'a kva huso'e hu'neno, kefozana agatenere. Hianagi neginagi vahe'mo'a kva huso'e osuno, Maka'zana amane hugahue huno nehie.
17 A quick-tempered man acts foolishly, and a devious man is hated.
Ame huno rimpama ahe vahe'mo'a, neginagi avu'ava nehie. Hagi kefozama hu antahintahima eri fore'ma nehia vahera, avesra hunentaze.
18 The simple inherit folly, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
Osi'a antahintahine vahe'mo'za, neginagi avu'avaza erisantiharegahaze. Hianagi maka'zama ankere'za hu vahe'mo'za, kini fetori anteankna huno antahi'zana erigahaze.
19 The evil bow before the good, and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
Iza'zo kefo zamavu'zmava nehanamo'za knare'zama nehanaza vahe zamavuga zamarena regahaze. Havi zama nehamo'za fatgo vahe'mokizmi kegina kafante zamare'na ome re'za husga huzmantegahaze.
20 The poor man is hated even by his neighbor, but many are those who love the rich.
Amunte'ma omne'simofona, knampa'amo enena avesiontegahie. Hianagi feno vahe'ma manisimofona, rama'a vahe'mo'za knampa'a manigahaze.
21 He who despises his neighbor sins, but blessed is he who shows kindness to the poor.
Inamo'o tava'oma'are'ma mani'nesimofoma kefenkami netreno knare'ma huontesimo'a, kumi hugahie. Hianagi iza'o amunte omane vahe'ma knare'ma huntesimofona, Anumzamo'a asomu huntegahie.
22 Do not those who contrive evil go astray? But those who plan goodness find loving devotion and faithfulness.
Havi avu'ava'ma hu'zamofo kema retroma hanaza vahe'mo'za, havi kantera novazafi? Hianagi iza'zo knare avu'ava'ma huzamofo kema retroma hazamo'za, mani fatgoma huno mani'zane vagaore avesi'zana ke'za erigahaze.
23 There is profit in all labor, but mere talk leads only to poverty.
Hanaveti'za mika eri'zama eri'za vahe'mo'za, rama'a eriguhe'za erigahaze. Hagi mani'ne'za ke'agema hu vahe'mo'za, zamunte omane vahe manigahaze.
24 The crown of the wise is their wealth, but the effort of fools is folly.
Ama' antahi'zane vahe'mofo fenomo'a, anunte kini fetori meankna huno me'ne. Hianagi neginagi zamavu'zmava'ma nehaza vahe'mokizmia, neginagi zamavu'zmavamo'a zamazeri neginagi nehie.
25 A truthful witness saves lives, but one who utters lies is deceitful.
Keagama hunezmantesafima, tamage hunka kema huamama hanamoka, rama'a vahe zamagu'vazigahane. Hianagi keagafima havigema hunka huama'ma hanamoka, havige vahe manigahane.
26 He who fears the LORD is secure in confidence, and his children shall have a place of refuge.
Ra Anumzamofoma kore'ma huntesimofona, Agra hanave vihu huntenkeno mani'nena, mofavre'amo'za hanave vihufi manigahaze.
27 The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, turning a man from the snares of death.
Ra Anumzamofoma kore'ma hunteno Agri agorga mani'zamo'a asimu ami' kapu'i ti me'neankino, vahe'ma ahefri krifufintira azeri atregahie.
28 A large population is a king’s splendor, but a lack of subjects is a prince’s ruin.
Kinimo'ma rama'a vahe'ma kegavama hanige'za, agrira ragi amigahaze. Hianagi kinimo'ma osi'a vahe'ma kegavama hanuno'a, agra haviza hugahie.
29 A patient man has great understanding, but a quick-tempered man promotes folly.
Ame' huno zamarimpa ohe vahe'mo'za, ama' antahi'za e'nerize. Hianagi hatuma hu'za zamarimpahe vahe'mo'za, neginagi zamavu'zmava eri ama' nehaze. (Jem 1:19-20.)
30 A tranquil heart is life to the body, but envy rots the bones.
Vahe'mo'ma rimpama ante fru huno'ma mani'zamo'a, avufgamofona asimu amigahie. Hianagi rumofo zante'ma kesanema nehanimofona, ana avu'avamo'a zaferinafi namureno kasriankna hugahie.
31 Whoever oppresses the poor taunts their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors Him.
Kagrama amunte omane vahe'ma zamazeri havizama hanunka, tro'ma huzmante'nea Anumzamofo huhaviza nehane. Hianagi kagrama zamazeri so'e hanunka, Anumzamofona ra agi amigahane.
32 The wicked man is thrown down by his own sin, but the righteous man has a refuge even in death.
Kefo avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'mofona, ana kumi avu'ava'zamo azeri haviza hugahie. Hianagi fatgo vahe'mo'ma frisigeno'a, agu'vazigahie.
33 Wisdom rests in the heart of the discerning; even among fools she is known.
Knare antahi'zamo'a, ama' antahi'zane vahe'mofo agu'afi akoheno meso'e huno megahie. Neginagi vahe'mofo agu'afina ana knare antahi'zamo'a, agra'a azeri ante'ama nehie.
34 Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.
Fatgo avu'ava hu'zamo'a ana mopafi me'nea kumara azeri antesga nehie. Hianagi kumi'ma nehaza avu'avazamo'a mika ana mopafi vahe'mofona, azeri agaze nehie.
35 A king delights in a wise servant, but his anger falls on the shameful.
Knare avu'ava'ma nehia eri'za ne'mofona, kinimo'a muse hunente. Hianagi agazema hu avu'ava'ma nehia eri'za vahera, kinimo'a rimpa ahentegahie.
