Proverbs 20

1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is riotous; and whosoever reeleth thereby is not wise.

Waini tima nenea vahe'mofona azeri neginagi higeno, vahe'ma huhaviza hu kea nehigeno, aka timo'a vahe'mofona azeri negi nenkeno ke huhaviza nehuno hara hugahie. Waini ti neno neginagi hu vahe'mofona, agripina ama' antahi'zana omanegahie.

2 The terror of a king is as the roaring of a lion: he that provoketh him to anger forfeiteth his life.

Kinimofo arimpa akahe zamo'a, laionimo rankrafa hiankna hu'ne. Kini vahe'mofo azeri arimpa ahe'simofona, ahe frigahie.

3 It is an honour for a man to keep aloof from strife; but every fool will be snarling.

Haframa hu'zanku'ma mani kore huno agatere'zamo'a, ra agi erigahie. Hianagi neginagi vahe'mo'za ame hu'za hafra nehaze.

4 The sluggard will not plow when winter setteth in; therefore he shall beg in harvest, and have nothing.

Feru vahe'mo'ma hozama ante knare'ma mopama rekorino hozama ontesuno'a, hozama hamare knarera ne'zana ohamaregahie.

5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.

Vahe'mofo antahi'zamo'a tirukna huno me'neanagi, ama' antahi'zane vahe'mo'a ana tirupintira ana antahi'zana afi anaga netre.

6 Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness; but a faithful man who can find?

Rama'a vahe'mo'za, tavesi negantone hugahazanagi, mago mago vahe'mo'za tamage hu'za kavesigantegahaze.

7 He that walketh in his integrity as a just man, happy are his children after him.

Fatgo avu'ava'ene ne'mo'a, mani fatgo huno nemanie. Agri mofavre zagamo'za, asomu erigahaze.

8 A king that sitteth on the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes.

Kini vahe'mo'ma keagama refako hunakura trate mani'neno, keaga refko huno havi avu'ava zana ke fore nehie.

9 Who can say: 'I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin'?

Nagu'amo'a fatgo higena, nagra agru hu'noankino nagripina kumira omane'ne huno iza hugahie?

10 Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD.

Havige hu'za maka'zama refko hu'za kna'ama ke'zane, havige hu'za avamente refkoma osu'zanena Ra Anumzamo'a avesra huno agote'nezmante.

11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.

Mofavremofona avu'avate negenka, agri avu'avamo'a agru hu'neanki, fatgo mofavre mani'neanki hugahane.

12 The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.

Tagesama me'neana keaga antahi'zane, tavuragama me'neana tavuma ke'za me'neankino, tarega'zana Ra Anumzamo museza tami'ne.

13 Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt have bread in plenty.

Kagrama kavu'ma masetenka manizankuma kavesi kavesima haniana, kamuntera omanegosie. Kavu'ma omasesanana ne'zama nesana zamo'a rama'a megahie.

14 'It is bad, it is bad', saith the buyer; but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.

Knare osu'ne! Knare osune! Huno mago'a zama mizama seku'ma himo'a nehie. Hianagi mizaseno kantegama nevuno'a, ana zankura knare'za erue huno rama'a musenke hume nevie.

15 There is gold, and a multitude of rubies; but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

Antahi'zama ami kemo'a, goline zago'amo'ma marerisa havea agetere'ne.

16 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; and hold him in pledge that is surety for an alien woman.

Onke'nenana vahe'mo'ma nofi'ma nehinkeno magomo apasegahue hanigenka, anamofo anakreku'a huvame hunka eri'negeno, ana nofi'ma hu'neazana eme apaseno. Savri a'mo'ma nofi'ma hanigeno'ma mago'mo apasegahuema hanigenka, aza hu'na apasentegahue huno kaminia zana erio.

17 Bread of falsehood is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.

Kumzafa kave'mo'a haganentake hugahianagi, refuzufupe havemo kagipi aviteno kagi traga hiankna henka'a hugahie.

18 Every purpose is established by counsel; and with good advice carry on war.

Antahi'zana vahepinti eritenka eri'zama eri antahi'zana retro huo. Hagi knare antahi'zama mago'mofompinti'ma e'orinesunka hatera ovuo.

19 He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets; therefore meddle not with him that openeth wide his lips.

Vahe zamagenkema hu vahe'mokizmi oku'zana hu ama nehaze. E'ina hu'negu vahe zamagenkema hu vahe enena tragotenka omanio.

20 Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in the blackest darkness.

Nerera nefama huhaviza huntesia vahe'mofona tavi'amo asu hanigeno kumazu hanimpi maniankna huno frigahie.

21 An estate may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed.

Arera afama ofri mani'nesigeno'ma erisinti haregahanema hu'nesia zama ame'ama huno erisia mofavremo'a, atuparega asimu'a omanegosie.

22 Say not thou: 'I will requite evil'; wait for the LORD, and He will save thee.

Kefo avu'ava'ma hugante'sagenka anahukna hu'na nona huzamantegahue osuo. Hagi avega antenegeno Ra Anumzamo kaza huno ana knazana erino.

23 Divers weights are an abomination to the LORD; and a false balance is not good.

Mago'azama mizaseku'ma hanigeno kna'ama refako huno kezama (skel) erinteno refako hu so'e osu avu'ava zana, Ra Anumzamo'a avesra huno agonete.

24 A man's goings are of the LORD; how then can man look to his way?

Vahe'mo'ma mika zama hiazana, Ra Anumzamoke azeri ante fatgo nehie. Inankna huno mago'a vahe'mo'a agra'ma nehia zana keno antahino hugahie?

25 It is a snare to a man rashly to say: 'Holy', and after vows to make inquiry.

Kagesa antahi ankeretenka Anumzamofontera huvempa huo. Ame'ama hunka huvempama hutesunka, henka'a anama hu'nesana kegu kagesa antahintahi nehunka kagraka'a kazeri haviza hugahane.

26 A wise king sifteth the wicked, and turneth the wheel over them.

Ama' antahi'zane kini ne'mo'a kefo zamavu'zamava nehaza vahera witi hona'a hareno eriherahe hianka huno rezaganeno ke ama huteno, henka knanentake havenu witi'a refuzafupeankna huno knazana zamigahie.

27 The spirit of man is the lamp of the LORD, searching all the inward parts.

Ra Anumzamofo lampe tavi'mo'a, vahe'mofo kantu agu'afi ufreno mika kefo agu'agesama me'neana hakeno eri ama nehie.

28 Mercy and truth preserve the king; and his throne is upheld by mercy.

Kini ne'mo'ma vahe'mokizmima avesi nezamanteno knare avu'ava huzamantesiana, agra knare huno mani'neno, za'za kna kva eri'zantera manino vugahie.

29 The glory of young men is their strength; and the beauty of old men is the hoary head.

Nehazave ramimofona hanave zamimo ra zamagia nezamie. Hianagi ranra vahera efe'zmazoka nege'za vahe'mo'za husga hunezmantaze.

30 Sharp wounds cleanse away evil; so do stripes that reach the inward parts.

Hazenkema hania vahe'ma knokeve'ma ami'zamo, kefo avu'ava zana ahenati netreno, agu'a azeri agru hugahie.
