< Proverbs 15 >

1 By a soft answer wrath is turned away, but a bitter word is a cause of angry feelings.
Akohenka antefru hunka kenona hanana zamo, rimpa akahe'zana eri'amane hugahie. Hianagi hakrugema hanana zamo'a, rimpahe'zana azeri otigahie.
2 Knowledge is dropping from the tongue of the wise; but from the mouth of the foolish comes a stream of foolish words.
Knare antahi'zane vahe'mofo agipintira, knare antahi'za e'nige'za vahe'mo'za antahi muse hugahaze. Hianagi neginagi vahe'mofo agipintira, neginagi kemo akaha huneramie.
3 The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.
Ra Anumzamo'a mika kaziga kefo vahete'ene, knare vahetera avua keteno nemanie.
4 A comforting tongue is a tree of life, but a twisted tongue is a crushing of the spirit.
Fru kema hu'zamo'a vahe'mofo asimu ami zafagna hu'ne. Hianagi akrehe akrehe kema hu'zamo'a, vahe'mofo agu'a ahenefri.
5 A foolish man puts no value on his father's training; but he who has respect for teaching has good sense.
Neginagi antahi'zane vahe'mo'a nefa'ma azeri fatgo hiankea nontahie. Hianagi iza'o azeri fatgoma hiankema antahimo'a, knare antahi'za e'nerie.
6 In the house of the upright man there is a great store of wealth; but in the profits of the sinner there is trouble.
Fatgo vahe'mokizmia nozamifina, fenozamo avinete. Hianagi kefo vahe'mo'za erisaza mizana, hazenke'za erigahaze.
7 The lips of the wise keep knowledge, but the heart of the foolish man is not right.
Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'za, antahi'zana vahera nezamize. Hianagi neginagi antahi'zane vahe'mo'za, anahura osugahaze.
8 The offering of the evil-doer is disgusting to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright man is his delight.
Kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zama, Ra Anumzamofonte'ma Kresramanama vunentaza zankura, agonete. Hianagi fatgo vahe'mo'zama haza nunamunku, Agra muse nehie.
9 The way of the evil-doer is disgusting to the Lord, but he who goes after righteousness is dear to him.
Kefo vahe'mo'ma hia avu'ava zankura, Ra Anumzamo'a agotenente. Hianagi fatgo avu'ava'ma huzanku'ma kazigazima hia vahe'mofona, Ra Anumzamo'a avesinente.
10 There is bitter punishment for him who is turned from the way; and death will be the fate of the hater of teaching.
Fatgo kamofoma amefi humisimo'a, tusi'a hazenke erigahie. Iza'o azeri fatgohu kemofoma avesrama huntesimo'a, frigahie.
11 Before the Lord are the underworld and destruction: how much more, then, the hearts of the children of men! (Sheol h7585)
Fri' vahe'mofo kuma'mo'ene fri'zamo'a, Ra Anumzamofo avurera amate me'neankino, tagutumotia keno antahino hu'ne! (Sheol h7585)
12 The hater of authority has no love for teaching: he will not go to the wise.
Veganokno kema hu vahe'mo'za, azeri fatgoma hanimofona avesra hunenteno, ama' antahi'zane vahe'mofontera aza hinogura urava'o osugahie.
13 A glad heart makes a shining face, but by the sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
Krimpamo'ma musema hu'nesigeno'a, kavu'gosafintira knare huno kizanki'za hugahie. Hianagi karimpamo'ma musema osu'nesigeno'a, kavugosamo'a rugaririgahie.
14 The heart of the man of good sense goes in search of knowledge, but foolish things are the food of the unwise.
Ama' antahi'zane vahe'mo'za antahi'zama eri'zankura zamaganete. Hianagi neginagi antahi'zane vahe'mofona havi kemo'a, ne'zama'agna hugahie.
15 All the days of the troubled are evil; but he whose heart is glad has an unending feast.
Zamunte omane vahe'mo'za mika zupa maniza'zmifina tusi'a amuho nehu'za maragu'zanetize. Hianagi muse arimpane manisimo'a, ne'zane tine neneno muse huvava hugahie.
16 Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, than great wealth together with trouble.
Osi'a fenoma anteneta Ra Anumzamofonku'ma kore'ma hunte'nuna zamo'a, rama'a fenoza ante'neta hazenkema erizana agaterene.
17 Better is a simple meal where love is, than a fat ox and hate with it.
Vahe'ma avesinentenka hozafi kamo'ma osia refko hunka ne'zamo'a, ra bulimakao afu'ma ahegino rimpagnanema refkoma huno ne'zana erifru nehie.
18 An angry man makes men come to blows, but he who is slow to get angry puts an end to fighting.
Ame huno'ma rimpama ahe vahe'mo, haframa hu'zana eri fore nehie. Hianagi akohenoma rimpa fru huno mani vahe'mo'a haframa hu'zana erifru nehie.
19 Thorns are round the way of the hater of work; but the road of the hard worker becomes a highway.
Eri'za e'ori feru'ma mani vahe'mofo kamo'a, ave'ave trazampima neviankna hu'ne. Hianagi mani fatgo hu'za mani vahe'mokizmi kamo'a ranka me'nege'za nevaze.
20 A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish man has no respect for his mother.
Ama' antahi'zama me'nea mofavremofo nefa'a, muse nehie. Hianagi neginagi ne'mo'a, nererana kefenkaminetre.
21 Foolish behaviour is joy to the unwise; but a man of good sense makes his way straight.
Antahi'zama'a omane vahe'mo'a, neginagi avu'ava zankura muse hugahie. Hianagi ama' antahi'zane vahe'mo'a, knare zanke nehuno, fatgo kante nevie.
22 Where there are no wise suggestions, purposes come to nothing; but by a number of wise guides they are made certain.
Knare antahi'zama vahepinti e'orinenka mago'a zama retro'ma hunaku'ma hananana, ana zamo'a forera osugahie. Hianagi rama'a knare antahintahima eritenka, retro'ma hanana zamo'a, efore hugahie.
23 A man has joy in the answer of his mouth: and a word at the right time, how good it is!
Fatgo huno'ma kenonama hanimo'a, muse hugahie. Hagi kna fatgore'ma huga kema hania kemo'a, knare'zantfa hugahie.
24 Acting wisely is the way of life, guiding a man away from the underworld. (Sheol h7585)
Knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'ma asimu erisia kamo'a anagamu marenerino, fri vahe kumapima uramizankura kegava hunente. (Sheol h7585)
25 The house of the man of pride will be uprooted by the Lord, but he will make safe the heritage of the widow.
Ra Anumzamo'a avufama eri antesgama hanimofona nomani'zama'a, eri haviza hugahie. Hianagi kento a'mofo fenoma'ane nonkuma'a, kegava huntegahie.
26 Evil designs are disgusting to the Lord, but the words of the clean-hearted are pleasing.
Kefo avu'avaza'ma hu antahi'zama retroma huzankura, Ra Anumzamo'a avesra huno agonete. Hianagi avusese hu'nea kema huzankura, Agra muse nehie.
27 He whose desires are fixed on profit is a cause of trouble to his family; but he who has no desire for offerings will have life.
Iza'o mika'za rehatri huno nagrike zanema hu' vahe'mo'a, hazenke erino naga'afina efregahie. Hianagi havi kazigati'ma masavema huno mizama sezanku'ma avesrama huntesimo'a, knare huno manigahie.
28 The heart of the upright gives thought to his answer; but from the mouth of the evil-doer comes a stream of evil things.
Fatgo agu'ane vahe'mo'a agesa antahiteno, kenona nehie. Hanki kefo vahe'mofo agipintira, kefoge atineramie.
29 The Lord is far from sinners, but his ear is open to the prayer of the upright.
Ra Anumzamo'a kefo zamavu'zmava'ma nehaza vahe'mokizmirera, afete nemanie. Hianagi fatgo vahe'mokizmi nunamunte, agesa anteno antahinezamie.
30 The light of the eyes is a joy to the heart, and good news makes the bones fat.
Musema nehia vahe'mofo avufima kesanana, muse hugahane. Knare'zama hu'nesia zamofo agenkema hu ke'mo'a, vahe'mofona zaferina kampina azeri fru hugahie.
31 The man whose ear is open to the teaching of life will have his place among the wise.
Iza'o so'e nomani'zama manisiegu'ma, azeri fatgoma hu kema nehinkeno antahisimo'a, knare antahi'zane vahe'mo'zama manisaza amu'nompi manigahie.
32 He who will not be controlled by training has no respect for his soul, but he who gives ear to teaching will get wisdom.
Iza'o azeri fatgo hu kema nehanigeno ontahisimo'a, agra'a azeri haviza nehie. Hianagi iza'o azeri fatgo hu kema nehinkeno, antahisimo'a, ama' antahintahi erigahie.
33 The fear of the Lord is the teaching of wisdom; and a low opinion of oneself goes before honour.
Ra Anumzamofonku kore'ma hunteno agoragama mani avu'avazamo, vahe'mofona knare antahintahia rempi hunemie. Hagi kagrama anteraminka manisunka, rankagia erigahane.
