< Proverbs 28 >
1 The evil man goes running away when no man is after him, but the upright are without fear, like the lion.
Kefo zamavu zamava'ma nehazamokizmia, vahe'mo'za zamarotgo nosazanagi, kore nefraze. Hianagi fatgo zamavu'zamava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za, laionimo nehiankna hu'za hanaveti'za nemanize.
2 Because of the sin of the land, its troubles are increased; but by a man of wisdom and knowledge they will be put out like a fire.
Mago kumapima vahe'mo'ma mago rimpama hu'zama omanesigeno'a, rama'a kva vahe fore hugahie. Hianagi antahi'zane vahe'ene antahi ama' hu antahi'zane vahe'ma mani'nesigeno'a, maka zamo'a knare huno vugahie.
3 A man of wealth who is cruel to the poor is like a violent rain causing destruction of food.
Amunte omane vahe'mo'ma, amunte'ma omane vahe'ma azeri havizama nehiazamo'a, e'i ranko aruno hozamofo eri haviza hiankna nehie.
4 Those who have no respect for the law give praise to the evil-doer; but such as keep the law are against him.
Kasegema ruhantagi vahe'mo'za, kefo avu'avaza'ma nehaza vahekura husga hunezmantaze. Hianagi kasegema nevaririza vahe'mo'za kefo vahe'mokizmia ha' renezmantaze.
5 Evil men have no knowledge of what is right; but those who go after the Lord have knowledge of all things.
Kefo zamavu' zamava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za, fatgo huno refkohu avu'ava zana antahi amara nosazanagi, Ra Anumzamofonku'ma nehakamo'za makazana antahi amara nehaze.
6 Better is the poor man whose ways are upright, than the man of wealth whose ways are not straight.
Amunte omane vahe'ma mani'neno fatgoma huno mani'zamo'a, havi avu'avateti'ma feno vahe'ma mani'zana agatere'ne.
7 He who keeps the law is a wise son, but he who keeps company with feasters puts shame on his father.
Kasegema amage'ma ante mofavre'mofona, ama' antahiza agripina me'ne. Hianagi ne'zama nehana hu vahe'enema tragoteno manisia ne'mo'a, nefana ra agaze erimigahie.
8 He who makes his wealth greater by taking interest, only gets it together for him who has pity on the poor.
Zagoma agrama trohu kazigati'ma ra zago agima ahentesia vahe'mofona, ana zagomo'a agri kupina omanegosianki, zamunte omane vahe'ma zamavesinte'za kegavama huzmantesaza vahe'mo'za erigahaze.
9 As for the man whose ear is turned away from hearing the law, even his prayer is disgusting.
Kasegema antahizanku'ma amagena hunemia vahe'mofonena, Ra Anumzamo'a agri nunamuma antahizankura agotenente.
10 Anyone causing the upright to go wandering in an evil way, will himself go down into the hole he has made; but the upright will have good things for their heritage.
Iza'o fatgo vahe'ma avreno kefo avu'ava'ma hu kante'ma vanimo'a, agra'a asente'nesia kerifi tamigahie. Hianagi tamagema huno manisimo'a, knare'za erisanti haregahie.
11 The man of wealth seems to himself to be wise, but the poor man who has sense has a low opinion of him.
Feno vahe'mo'a agra'agu'ma antahiana ama' antahi'zane vahe mani'noe huno hugahianagi, zamunte omane ama' antahi'zane vahe'mo'za, amane agrira age'za antahi'za hugahaze.
12 When the upright do well, there is great glory; but when evil-doers are lifted up, men do not let themselves be seen.
Fatgo vahe'mo'ma rankuma'mofoma kegavama higeno'a, mika veamo'a rimpa fru higeno, tusi muse nehaze. Hianagi kefo vahe'mo'ma kegavama higeno'a, mika vahe'mo'a franekie.
13 He who keeps his sins secret will not do well; but one who is open about them, and gives them up, will get mercy.
Iza'o kumi'ama framakinimo'a, nomani'zama'afina knarera osugahie. Hianagi kumi'ama huama nehuno, atreno arukrahe huno esimofona, Anumzamo'a asunku hunteno azeri so'e huntegahie.
14 Happy is the man in whom is the fear of the Lord at all times; but he whose heart is hard will come into trouble.
Maka knama Ra Anumzamofonku'ma koro hunteno agoragama mani vahe'mo'a, muse hugahie. Hianagi izano agu'amo'ma hanavema atisimo'a, hazenke erigahie.
15 Like a loud-voiced lion and a wandering bear, is an evil ruler over a poor people.
Kefo avu'ava'ma nehia kva vahe'mo'a, zamunte'ma omane vahe'mokizmia, laionimo vahe aheno nenaku krafa hiankna nehigeno, beamo'ma vahe'ma aheno nenaku arotago nehianka nehie.
16 The prince who has no sense is a cruel ruler; but he who has no desire to get profit for himself will have long life.
Vahe'amofoma knama zami kva ne'mofona, ama' antahi'zana agripina omanene. Hianagi havigema huno fatgo osu kanteti'ma fenoma eri'zanku'ma avesrama huntesia kva ne'mo'a, za'zate manino vugahie.
17 One who has been the cause of a man's death will go in flight to the underworld: let no man give him help.
Mago vahe'ma ahefri'nesia ne'moma, vahe'ma ahe fri'nesia antahintahimo'ma knama neminkeno, nontema mani so'e osu vanoma nehina, aza osu atrenkeno frino.
18 He whose ways are upright will be safe, but sudden will be the fall of him whose ways are twisted.
Tamage avu'ava huno mani'zamo'a, hazenkefintira kagu vazigahie. Hianagi iza'o mani fatgoma huno'ma omanisimo'a, ame huno traka hugahie.
19 By ploughing his land a man will have bread in full measure; but he who goes after good-for-nothing persons will be poor enough.
Hanavema atino eri'zama mopafima erisimofona, ne'zama'amo'a avitegahie. Hianagi iza'o agafa'ama omanezante'ma avaririsimo'a, amunte omane vahe manigahie.
20 A man of good faith will have great blessing, but one attempting to get wealth quickly will not go free from punishment.
Tamagema huno hugahue nehiazama fatgo huno'ma nehia vahe'mo'a, rama'a asomu erigahie. Hianagi iza'o ame'ama huno feno vahe'ma maninaku'ma hanimo'a, hazenkefi ufregahie.
21 It is not good to have respect for a man's position: for a man will do wrong for a bit of bread.
Magomofo kazigama nemanino magomofoma atre'zamo'a, knarera osu'ne. Hianagi mago'a vahe'mo'za breti ankra'are, kumi avu'avaza eri fore hugahaze.
22 He who is ever desiring wealth goes running after money, and does not see that need will come on him.
Agraguke'ma antahi' vahe'mo'a, ame' huno feno vahe'ma mani'zanku agu'agesa nentahie. Hianagi henkama amunte omnesia zankura, keno antahino nosie.
23 He who says words of protest to a man will later have more approval than one who says smooth words with his tongue.
Vahe'ma azeri fatgo hunaku azeri koneria ne'mo'a, vahe'mofoma masavenkema huzamante nera agatereneankino, henka rama'a vahe'mo'za agrikuke hugahaze.
24 He who takes from his father or his mother what is theirs by right, and says, It is no sin; is the same as a taker of life.
Iza'o nerera nefa zama kumzafama neseno kumira nosue nehimo'a, agra mikazama eri havizama nehia vahe'ene tragonete.
25 He who is ever desiring profit is a cause of fighting; but he who puts his faith in the Lord will be made fat.
Agraguke'ma antahi vahe'mo'a, ha' azeri onetie. Hianagi Ra Anumzamofonte'ma amentinti nehanimo'a, nomani'zama'afina mani knare hugahie.
26 He whose faith is in himself is foolish; but everyone walking wisely will be kept safe.
Iza'o agra'a antahi'zanku'ma knare hu'neanki'na amne hugahuema hanimo'a, neginagi vahekna nehie. Hianagi iza'o ama' antahi'zampima vanimo'a, knazana agateregahie.
27 He who gives to the poor will never be in need, but great curses will be on him who gives no attention to them.
Iza'o amunte omane vahe'ma amisimo'a, mago zankura upara osugahie. Hianagi iza'o ozamage vahe kna nehuno zamaza osanimo'a, rama'a kazusifi manigahie.
28 When evil-doers are lifted up, men take cover; but when destruction overtakes them, the upright are increased.
Kefo vahe'mo'zama kvama mani'za kegavama hazageno'a, mika vahe'mo'za fra'nekize. Hianagi ana kefo kva vahe'zagama frizage'za, fatgo vahe'mo'za ome rama'a nehaze.
