Proverbs 16
1 It is the part of man to prepare the soul: and of the Lord to govern the tongue.
Ninia hidadea ninia hawa: hamomusa: ilegesa. Be Gode Ea hanai hamobe fawane fa: no ba: mu.
2 All the ways of a man are open to his eyes: the Lord is the weigher of spirits.
Di da dia hamobe huluane da moloiwane dawa: sa. Be Hina Gode Hi fawane da dia asigi dawa: su hanai hou amoma fofada: sa.
3 Lay open thy works to the Lord: and thy thoughts shall be directed.
Dia hanai hamomu liligi huluane hahawane fidima: ne, Hina Godema sia: ne gadoma. Amasea, dia hamobe huluane, di da hahawane hamone dagomu.
4 The Lord hath made all things for himself: the wicked also for the evil day.
Hina Gode da Ea hahamoi liligi huluane amo ea hamobe amola dagosu ilegei dagoi. Be wadela: i hamosu dunu huluane E da wadela: lesimusa: ilegei dagoi.
5 Every proud man is an abomination to the Lord: though hand should be joined to hand, he is not innocent. The beginning of a good way is to do justice; and this is more acceptable with God, than to offer sacrifices.
Hina Gode da gasa fi dunu huluane higasa. Ilia da se iasu amo fisima: ne hobeamu da hamedei ba: mu.
6 By mercy and truth iniquity is redeemed: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil.
Dilia Gode Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: ma amola mae yolesima. Amasea, E da Dilia wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofomu. Hina Gode Ea sia: noga: le nabasea, Dilia da se hame nabimu.
7 When the ways of man shall please the Lord, he will convert even his enemies to peace.
Dilia da Hina Gode Ea hanai hamosea, dilima ha lai amola da sinidigili, bu Dilia na: iyadowane esalumu.
8 Better is a little with justice, than great revenues with iniquity.
Moloiwane hamobeba: le, liligi fonobahadi gaguiwane ba: mu da defea. Be ogogolewane hamobeba: le, liligi bagade gagumu da defea hame galebe.
9 The heart of man disposeth his way: but the Lord must direct his steps.
Di da dia fa: no hamomu amo ilegelala. Be Gode Hi fawane da dia hamobe ouligisa.
10 Divination is in the lips of the king, his mouth shall not err in judgment.
Osobo bagade hina bagade da Gode da olelebeba: le fawane sia: sa. Ea hamomu sia: da giadofasu hame dawa:
11 Weight and balance are judgments of the Lord: and his work all the weights of the bag.
Hina Gode da bidi lasu hou amo ganodini, dioi defesu amola hou huluane moloidafa fawane ba: mu hanai gala.
12 They that act wickedly are abominable to the king: for the throne is established by justice.
Osobo bagade hina bagade ilia da wadela: i hou huluane higasa. Bai moloidafa hou fawane da eagene fi ilima gasa iaha.
13 Just lips are the delight of kings: he that speaketh right things shall be loved.
Osobo bagade hina bagade da moloidafa sia: fawane nabimu hanai gala. E da moloidafa sia: dasu dunu ilima asigisa.
14 The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: and the wise man will pacify it.
Noga: i dawa: su dunu da hina bagade hina: nodoma: ne hamosa. Be hina da ougi ba: sea, dunu afae da bogosa: besa: le, hou noga: le ouligimu da defea.
15 In the cheerfulness of the king’s countenance is life: and his clemency is like the latter rain.
Hina bagade ea dogolegei da agoane. Muagadodili gibu sa: ili, denesibi agoai hahawane esalusu diala.
16 Get wisdom, because it is better than gold: and purchase prudence, for it is more precious than silver.
Di da Bagade Dawa: su Hou hogoi helema. Amo hou ea lasu defei da gouli amola silifa amo lasu defei bagadewane baligisa.
17 The path of the just departeth from evils: he that keepeth his soul keepeth his way.
Noga: i dunu da logo amo da wadela: i hou amoma afafai dagoi, amoga ahoa. Amaiba: le, dia logo ahoasu noga: le dawa: ma. Di da giadofale ahoanu, bogosa: besa: le, noga: le dawa: ma!
18 Pride goeth before destruction: and the spirit is lifted up before a fall.
Dunu da gasa fi hou amola hihi hou hamosea, da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.
19 It is better to be humbled with the meek, than to divide spoils with the proud.
Dia hou fonoboiwane hame gaguiwane esalumu da defea. Be gasa fi hamone, wamolai liligi mogili labeba: le, bagade gaguiwane ba: mu da defea hame galebe.
20 The learned in word shall find good things: and he that trusteth in the Lord is blessed.
Dima olelei liligi amo noga: le dawa: ma. Amasea, dia hou huluane da hahawane ba: mu. Hina Godema dafawaneyale dawa: le, di da eso huluane hahawane ba: mu.
21 The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and he that is sweet in words shall attain to greater things.
Nowa da asigi dawa: suga asigilai galea, eno dunu da ema nodosa. E da sia: noga: idafa sia: beba: le, eno dunu da ea fada: i sia: ne iasu amoma fa: no bobogesa.
22 Knowledge is a fountain of life to him that possesseth it: the instruction of fools is foolishness.
Bagade Dawa: su Hou da noga: i asigi dawa: su dunu ilima esalusu hano bubuga: su agoaiwane gala. Be amo moloi hou hame hamobe dunuma olelesea da udigili helesa.
23 The heart of the wise shall instruct his mouth: and shall add grace to his lips.
Bagade dawa: su dunu da dadawa: lalu fawane sia: sa. Amasea, ilia da dawa: iwane sia: beba: le, eno dunu da ilia sia: amoga fa: no bobogesa.
24 Well ordered words are as a honeycomb: sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
Asigi sia: da agime hano ea hedai defele ba: sa. Amo da hedaidafa amola dima gasa iaha.
25 There is a way that seemeth to a man right: and the ends thereof lead to death.
Di da logo dialebe ba: sea amola amo da logodafa di dawa: lala. Be amo logo da bogosu doaga: sa: besa: le, dawa: ma!
26 The soul of him that laboureth, laboureth for himself, because his mouth hath obliged him to it.
Hawa: hamosu dunu da ha: i manu hanaiba: le, baligili hawa: hamonana. Bai e da ha: i galebe amola sadimu hanai gala.
27 The wicked man diggeth evil, and in his lips is a burning fire.
Wadela: i hamosu dunu da eno dunu se nabima: ne, logo hogoi helesa. Ilia sia: amolawane da gia: i bagade wadela: i sia: fawane gala.
28 A perverse man stirreth up quarrels: and one full of words separateth princes.
Wadela: le hamosu dunu ilia da baligidu sia: be amo gaguli laha. Ilia da ilia na: iyado fi da: i dioma: ne amola afafama: ne wadela: lesisa.
29 An unjust man allureth his friend: and leadeth him into a way that is not good.
Nimi bagade gasa fi dunu da ilia na: iyado ilima ogogosa amola ili wadela: lesisa.
30 He that with fixed eyes deviseth wicked things, biting his lips, bringeth: evil to pass.
Nowa dunu da hohonomusa: si begini gasea o udigili onigisia, amo dawa: ma! Bai ilia da wadela: i hou hamomusa: dawa: lala.
31 Old age is a crown of dignity, when it is found in the ways of justice.
Moloidafa dunu da ode bagohame esalumu. Amo da bidi Gode da ilima iaha. Momali hinabo da ilima hadigi habuga agoane gala.
32 The patient man is better than the valiant: and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh cities.
Hahawane, mae fisili, ouesalebe hou da gasa bagade hou baligisa. Dina: da: i hodo amola asigi dawa: su amoga ouligisu hou da moilai bai bagade bagohame amoga ouligisu hou, bagadewane baligisa.
33 Lots are cast into the lap, but they are disposed of by the Lord.
Osobo bagade dunu da Gode Ea hanai dawa: musa: , ululuasa. Be Gode Hi fawane da adole iasu ilegesa.
