< Proverbs 27 >
1 Boast not thyself of to-morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
Aya hamomu hou amo mae gaguia gadole hidale ilegema. Be di da fa: no misunu hou hame dawa:
2 Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
Eno dunu amola degabo ba: i dunu da dima nodone ofa: mu da defea. Be di da dina: maedafa ofa: ma.
3 A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's vexation is heavier than they both.
Igi amola boso amola da dioi bagade. Be gagaoui dunu ea mosolasu hamoi da amo dioi baligisa.
4 Wrath is cruel, and anger is overwhelming; but who is able to stand before jealousy?
Udigili mi hanai hou da dodona: gi amola dunu eno wadela: lesisa. Be mudasu hou da dunu eno baligili wadela: lesisa.
5 Better is open rebuke than love that is hidden.
Di da dunu eno ea hou afadenema: ne gagabole sia: musa: dawa: sea, mae wamolegele, hima odagia sia: mu da defea. Agoane hame hamosea, di da ema hame asigisa e da dawa: mu.
6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are importunate.
Dia dogolegei da di fidima: ne, dima odagia sia: sea, se iaha. Be dima ha lai dunu da dima nonogole, asigiwane sia: sea, dawa: ma: i!
7 The full soul loatheth a honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.
Di da ha: i mai amo sadisia da agime hano hedai ha: i manu higasa. Be di da ha: i bagadedafa ba: sea, ha: i manu gamogai da hedai ba: sa.
8 As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place.
Dunu hina: fifilasu yolesili udigili lalebe ea hou da sio ea musugai amo da: iya mae diaheda: le, fisili asi agoai gala.
9 Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart; so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel.
Susuligi amola gabusiga: na manoma ulasea da dia da: i noga: le hisisa. Be dima bidi hamosu doaga: sea, dia asigi dawa: su noga: i da dafane goudane fofonoboi agoai ba: sa.
10 Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity; better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.
Dia dogolegei amola dia ada ea dogolegei dunu amo mae gogolema. Mosolasu da dima doaga: sea, dia oladafa amo ea fidima: ne mae adole ba: ma. Be dia na: iyado, di gadenene esalebe, amo ea da di noga: le fidimu. Be dia oladafa da badiliadafaba: le, di noga: le hame fidimu.
11 My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that taunteth me.
Na mano, dawa: su noga: i lama! Amasea, na da hahawane ba: mu. Amola dunu eno da nama gadele sia: sea, na da ilima adole imunusa: dawa: mu.
12 A prudent man seeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the thoughtless pass on, and are punished.
Noga: le molole dawa: su dunu ilia da bidi doaga: su manebe hedolo ba: sa, amola gaga: sa. Be noga: le hame dawa: su dunu da amo bidi doaga: su amo noga: le hame ba: beba: le, amodili ahoa. Amola fa: no e da bu da: i dione dawa: sa.
13 Take his garment that is surety for a stranger; and hold him in pledge that is surety for an alien woman.
Degabo ba: i dunu da liligi bidi lale, bidi mae iawane fa: no imunu sia: sea, be eno dunu da amo dunu ea fa: no imunu bidi, amo hi da wali imunu sia: sea, e da gagoule agoane hamosa. Amola degabo ba: i dunu da bidi bu hame iasea, bidi iasu dunu da gagaoui dunu amo ea soge lamu da defea.
14 He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.
Di da dia dogolegei amo hahabe golai dialebe amo nedigima: ne ha: giniwane halaga: la: sea, e da fofogadigili se nabimu. Amo hou da ema gagabusu aligima: ne agoai ba: sa.
15 A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike;
Uda gesa: gesa: i ea hou da gibu dasea dadadibi agoai ba: sa.
16 He that would hide her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand betrayeth itself.
Di da gesa: gesa: i uda ea hou habodane ouiya: ma: ne sia: ma: bela: ? Dia loboga fo mabe gagumusa: dawa: bela: ? Dia loboga susuligi usuna gagumusa: dawa: bela: ?
17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
Ouli aduna ele degenana mebe agoai gala. Amo defele, dunu aduna da gilisili sia: dasea, ela galu dawa: lasa.
18 Whoso keepeth the fig-tree shall eat the fruit thereof; and he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.
Figi ifa noga: le ouligisia, di da figi fage manu galebe. Hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hina dunu noga: le ouligisia, hina dunu da e nodone ouligimu.
19 As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man.
Di da hanoa gudu ba: le gudusia, dina: baba ba: sa. Amola dia dogo ba: sea, dia asigi dawa: su houdafa ba: sa.
20 The nether-world and Destruction are never satiated; so the eyes of man are never satiated. (Sheol )
Bogosu soge da hamedafa nabamu. Amaiwane, osobo bagade dunu da liligi hanai gala. Amola sadimu hame dawa: (Sheol )
21 The refining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold, and a man is tried by his praise.
Dunu da gouli amola silifa amola laluga gogobele adoba: sa. Amo defele, dunu ilia da eno dunu ea hou adoba: sa.
22 Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar with a pestle among groats, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.
Di da gagaoui dunu fanana, fanana, e bogomu gadenesea fawane fisisa, be ea gagaoui hou fadegale fasimu hamedei agoane ba: mu.
23 Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds;
Dia sibi amola bulamagau noga: le dawa: le ouligima.
24 For riches are not for ever; and doth the crown endure unto all generations?
Bai liligi gagui hou da ebelemu. Amola fifi asi gala huluane da dagomusa: dawa: la.
25 When the hay is mown, and the tender grass showeth itself, and the herbs of the mountains are gathered in;
Di da bulamagau ha: i manu gisi bugi amo huluane none dagosea, eno gisi da heda: sea, gisi amo da agolo la: idi gala nosa.
26 The lambs will be for thy clothing, and the goats the price for a field.
Di da sibi ilia hinaboga, abula amunimu amola goudi bidi lale, muni lai amoga soge eno bidi lamu.
27 And there will be goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household; and maintenance for thy maidens.
Amola goudi eno hame bidi lai lelebe, amoga di da dodo maga: me dia sosogo fi amola dia hawa: hamosu a: fini huluane defele moma: ne dimusa: dawa: mu.
