< Proverbs 5 >

1 My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow your ear to my understanding:
Anakko, ipangagmo ti siribko, denggem a nasayaat no ania ti pannakaawatko,
2 That you may regard discretion, and that your lips may keep knowledge.
tapno masursurom ti maipanggep iti kinatimbeng, ket masalakniban dagiti bibigmo ti pannakaammo.
3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:
Ta agtedtedted ti diro manipud kadagiti bibig ti mannakikamalala, ken ti ngiwatna ket nalamlammuyot ngem iti lana,
4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.
ngem iti udina ket napait isuna a kas iti ajinco, a makasugat a kas iti natadem a kampilan.
5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. (Sheol h7585)
Dagiti sakana ket mapmapan iti ipapatay; dagiti addangna ket agturong idiay sheol. (Sheol h7585)
6 Lest you should ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that you can not know them.
Saanna a panpanunoten ti dalan ti biag. Agalla-alla isuna; saanna nga ammo no sadino ti pappapananna.
7 Hear me now therefore, O all of you children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
Ket ita annakko, dumngegkayo kaniak; kanayonyo a denggen dagiti ibagak.
8 Remove your way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:
Iyadayoyo kenkuana ti dalanyo, ken saankayo nga umas-asideg iti ruangan ti balayna.
9 Lest you give your honour unto others, and your years unto the cruel:
Iti kasta a wagas, saanyonto nga ited ti dayawyo kadagiti dadduma wenno dagiti tawen ti biagyo iti naulpit a tao;
10 Lest strangers be filled with your wealth; and your labours be in the house of a stranger;
saanto nga agrambak dagiti ganggannaet kadagiti kinabaknangyo; ti natrabahoanyo ket saanto a mapan kadagiti babbalay dagiti ganggannaet.
11 And you mourn at the last, when your flesh and your body are consumed,
Umasugkayonto inton kanibusananen ti biagyo, inton marunrunoten ti lasag ken bagiyo.
12 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
Kunaenyonto, “Anian a pananggurak idi iti pannakadisiplina ken pananglalais ti pusok iti panangilinteg!
13 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!
Saanko a pinagtulnogan dagiti manursurok wenno dinengngeg dagiti nangbilbilin kaniak.
14 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
Dandaniakon nadadael iti kasta unay iti nagtetengngaan ti taripnong, kadagiti panaguummong dagiti tattao.”
15 Drink waters out of your own cistern, and running waters out of your own well.
Uminomka iti danum manipud iti bukodmo a pagurnongan iti danum, ken uminomka iti agay-ayus a danum manipud iti bukodmo a bubon.
16 Let your fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.
Rumbeng kadi a paglupiasem dagiti ubbogmo iti sadinoman, ken pagayusem dagiti waigmo kadagiti plasa?
17 Let them be only your own, and not strangers' with you.
Kukuam laeng koma dagitoy, ket saan a kadagiti ganggannaet a kaduam.
18 Let your fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of your youth.
Mabendisionan koma ti burayokmo, ken agragsakka koma iti asawam iti kina-agtutubom.
19 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy you at all times; and be you ravished always with her love.
Ta maiyarig isuna iti nakaay-ayat a kabaian nga ugsa ken iti makaay-ayo a kabaian nga ugsa. Punoennaka koma ti barukongna iti ragsak iti amin a tiempo; a kankanayon a maguyguyugoy gapu iti ayatna.
20 And why will you, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
Ta apay koma nga agpatiliwka anakko, iti maysa a mannakikamkamalala; apay koma nga arakupem ti barukong ti babai a saanmo met nga am-ammo?
21 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he ponders all his activities.
Makitkita ni Yahweh ti amin nga ar-aramiden ti maysa a tao ken buybuyaenna ti amin a dalan a pagpagnaanna.
22 His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be held with the cords of his sins.
Matiliwto ti maysa a nadangkes a tao babaen kadagiti bukodna a basol; tenglento isuna iti nairut dagiti tali ti basolna.
23 He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.
Matayto isuna gapu ta kurang isuna iti disiplina; maiyaw-awan isuna gapu iti nakaro a kinamaagna.
