< Proverbs 19 >

1
Amunte omane vahe'ma mani'neno, maka zampima mani fatgoma hu'zamo'a, neginagi vahe'mo'ma akrehe krehe ageru'ma ruzana agatere'ne.
2
Mago vahe'mo'ma keno antahino'ma osu'nesia zama hunaku'ma haniana, knarera osugahie. Iza'o ame'ama huno mago'zama hunaku'ma hanimo'a, ana zana eri haviza hugahie.
3 The folly of a man spoils his ways: and he blames God in his heart.
Mago'a vahe'mokizmi zamagri'a neginagi zamavu'zmava zamo zamazeri haviza nehige'za, Ra Anumzamofona zamarimpa ahenentaze.
4 Wealth acquires many friends; but the poor is deserted even of the friend he has.
Amunte'ma me'nea ne'mofona, rama'a knampa'a manigahaze. Hagi fenoma'a omane ne'mofona knampa'amo'za netraze.
5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that accuses unjustly shall not escape.
Keagare'ma omati'nesia vahe'ma havigema huno huama'ma hunteno azama hanimo'a, knazana erigahie. Hagi havi kema hanimo'a, mizama'a erigahie.
6 Many court the favour of kings; but every bad man becomes a reproach to [another] man.
Rama'a vahe'mo'za zamazama hania vahe arone manizanku zamave'nesie. Hagi maka vahe'mo'za muse zama nezami'za vahe'mofo rone nemanize.
7 Every one who hates [his] poor brother shall also be far from friendship. Good understanding will draw near to them that know it, and a sensible man will find it. He that does much harm perfects mischief; and he that used provoking words shall not escape.
Kagrima kamunte'ma omanesige'za, kafuhe'za kavesi ogantegahaze. Hagi knampa ka'amo'za mago'ane agatere'za zamavesra hugantegahaze. Kazama hanazegu'ma hakesanana, zamagra omanigahaze.
8 He that procures wisdom loves himself; and he that keeps wisdom shall find good.
Kagrama knare antahi'zama erisunka, kagraka'agu avesinentane. Kagrama ama' antahi'zama azeri hampo'nama hanunka, knare hunka manigahane.
9 A false witness shall not be unpunished; and whoever shall kindle mischief shall perish by it.
Keagafima otisia vahe'ma havigema huno huama huntesia vahe'mo'a knaza erigahie. Hagi havigema hanaza vahe'mo'za frigahaze.
10 Delight does not suit a fool, nor [is it seemly] if a servant should begin to rule with haughtiness.
Neginagi vahe'mo'za marerisa zampina manigara osu'naze. Kazokzo eri'za vahe'mo'ma kva vahe manino, kva (princes) vahe'ma kegava huntezamo'a, knarera osutfaza hu'ne.
11 A merciful man is longsuffering; and his triumph overtakes transgressors.
Knare antahi'zama eri'nesia ne'mo'a, ame huno arimpa ohegosie. Hagi havizama huntesia zanku'ma agesama ontahisiana, husga huntegahaze.
12 The threatening of a king is like the roaring of a lion; but as dew on the grass, so is his favour.
Kini vahe'mofo rimpa he'zamo'a, laionimo rankrafa hiankna nehie. Hianagi vahe'ma zamavesinteno zamazama hu avu'ava zamo'a, trazante ata ko arunteankna nehie.
13 A foolish son is a disgrace to his father: vows [paid out] of the hire of a harlot are not pure.
Mago ne'mofavremo'ma neginagi avu'avazama hiana, nefana tusi'a hazenke erinemie. Hagi mago ne'mofo a'mo'ma kefra nehuno, ke huvava hania a'mo'a, nomofo anuntupinti ko'arigeno varivri hiankna hugahie.
14 Fathers divide house and substance to [their] children: but a wife is suited to a man by the Lord.
Negrera negafampinti none fenozanena erisanti haregahane. Hianagi Ra Anumzamoke, ama' antahi'zane a'ra kamigahie.
15 Cowardice possesses the effeminate [man]; and the soul of the sluggard shall hunger.
Feru vahe'moka kavu mase vava hugahane. Hagi eri'za e'ori vahe'moka ne'zanku frigahane.
16 He that keeps the commandment keeps his own soul; but he that despises his ways shall perish.
Iza'o kasegema amage'antesimo'a knare huno manigahie. Hagi iza'o Ra Anumzamofo avu'ava'ma amefi'ma humisimo'a, frigahie.
17 He that has pity on the poor lends to the Lord; and he will recompense to him according to his gift.
Iza'o amunte omane vahe'ma knare avu'ava'ma hunentemo'a, Ra Anumzamofo anara hunente. Hagi agrama hania avu'avamofo avamente, mizana amigahie.
18 Chasten your son, for so he shall be hopeful; and be not exalted in your soul to haughtiness.
Mofavre kamofona azeri fatgoma hugama hu'nesire, avumarora antenka azeri fatgo huo. Hagi azeri fatgoma osnanana, frinogu kave'nesie.
19 A malicious man shall be severely punished, and if he commit injury, he shall also lose his life.
Hantaka huno'ma arimpa ahe vahe'mo'a, hazenke'a erigahie. Na'ankure kagrama aza hunka eri amane hanankeno'a, henka ana ne'mo'a anazana nehinkenka aza huvava hugahane.
20 Hear, son, the instruction of your father, that you may be wise at your latter end.
Kavumro antesia kema nentahinka, kazeri fatgoma hania kema avaririsunka, mani so'e hunka vugahane.
21 [There are] many thoughts in a man's heart; but the counsel of the Lord abides for ever.
Vahe'mo'a rama'a zanku antahi'zana eri retro huno hugahue hugahianagi, Ra Anumzamo'ma antahino fore hugahie hu'nesia zamoke fore hugahie.
22 Mercy is a fruit to a man: and a poor man is better than a rich liar.
Ra zama me'neana huvempama hunte'nesia kere, amage'ma anteno mani'zane. Hagi amunte omane vahe'ma mani'zamo'a, havige vahera agatere'ne.
23 The fear of the Lord is life to a man: and he shall lodge without fear in places where knowledge is not seen.
Ra Anumzamofonku'ma koro'ma hunteno agorga'ama mani'zamo'a, kavreno knare mani'zante vugahie. Hagi iza'o e'inahu'ma hanimo'a, mago'zankura korera osuno knare huno manigahie.
24 He that unjustly hides his hands in his bosom, will not even [bring] them up to his mouth.
Eri'za e'ori feru vahe'mo'a, ne'za nenaku tafepi azana antesigeno vugahianagi, ana ne'zana agipina erinteno onegahie.
25 When a pestilent character is scourged, a simple man is made wiser: and if you reprove a wise man, he will understand discretion.
Vahe'ma huhaviza nehania vahe'ma azerinka sefu'ma amisankeno'a, knare antahi'zama omane vahe'mo'za nege'za, knare avu'avara amage antegahaze. Hianagi knare antahi'zama me'nea vahe'ma azeri fatgo hanankeno'a, mago'ane antahi'zana erigahie.
26 He that dishonours his father, and drives away his mother, shall be disgraced and shall be exposed to reproach.
Mago mofavremo'ma nefa'ma neheno, nererama nompinti'ma ahenati atresia mofavremo'a, tusi'a agazeza erino naga'afina eme antegahie.
27 A son who ceases to attend to the instruction of a father will cherish evil designs.
Kavumro'ma antesianke'ma ontahi'sanana, e'i knare antahi'zamofo kana atrenka havifi vugahane.
28 He that becomes surety for a foolish child will despise the ordinance: and the mouth of ungodly men shall drink down judgement.
Havige hu vahe'mo'ma havigema huno keagafima omati'nea vahe'ma huama'ma hunte'zamo'a, keagama antahi trara kiza zokago zankna nehuno, havi avu'ava zana ne'za nazankna nehaze.
29 Scourges are preparing for the intemperate, and punishments likewise for fools.
Vahe'ma huhavizama hunezmantaza vahe'mokizmi'a, mizazmia ko tro huzmantegeno me'neanki'za erigahaze. Nehanage'za neginagima hanaza vahera, kanonkeve zamigahaze.
