Proverbs 18
1 He that separateth himself [from God] seeketh his own desires: at every sound wisdom is he enraged.
Agra'aku'ma nemanisia vahe'mo'a, agraguke agesa nentahie. Knare antahizama eri'nea vaheku'enena ana ne'mo'a avesiozmantegahie.
2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but in laying open what is in his heart.
Neginagi vahe'mo'a ama' antahintahima erizankura, musena osugosie. Hianagi agra'a antahi'zanke hu'netreno manigahie.
3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with dishonorable acts, disgrace.
Kefo avu'ava'ene vahe'mo'a, mago'a vahekura antahi amane'za neseno, zamagi'a eri haviza nehuno, zamagaze erinezamie.
4 Like deep waters are the words of a [wise] man's mouth, and a bubbling brook is the well-spring of wisdom.
Knare antahi'zane vahe'mofo agipinti ke'mo'a, tiru kna hu'ne. Hianagi mika knare antahizamo'a, timo kerifinti aviteno herafiramino neviankna nehie.
5 It is not good to favor the person of the wicked, to wrest [the cause of the] righteous in judgment.
Hazenkema huteno keagahu trate'ma otisigenka, hazenkema hu'nesia vahera aza osutfa huo. Hagi fatgo vahe'ma keagafima oti'nenigenka havigema huntenka azeri atre'zankura kva huo.
6 The lips of the fool come with contention, and his mouth calleth for blows.
Neginagi vahe'mofo kemo'a, hafra hu'za eri fore nehigeno, ana ke'zmimo'a kanonkevegu meme nehie.
7 The mouth of the fool is a destruction to himself, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
Neginagi vahe'mofo agi'mo'a, havi ke'agage nehanigeno, krifu agra'a avufare anaginente'ankna nehiakino, agrira azeri haviza hugahie.
8 The words of a whisperer are as wounds, and they go down indeed into the innermost parts of the body.
Vahe agenkema hu'zamo'a, haga ne'zankna hu'neankino, ame huno vahe agu'afina ufregahie.
9 He also that showeth himself slothful in his work is a brother to the destroyer.
Zaferina omane feru vahe'mo'a, maka'zama eri havizama nehia vahe'mofo nefu manine.
10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower, whereunto the righteous runneth, and is placed in safety.
Ra Anumzamofo agimo'a hanavenentake vihugna hu'neankino, fatgo vahe'mo'za agritega zamagare'za nevazageno, zamagu nevazie.
11 The rich man's wealth is his strong town, and as a towering wall in his own conceit.
Feno vahe'mofo fenomo'a ra kuma zmimofo vihugna hu'neakino, kegava hurantenkenta knare huta manigahune hu'za nentahize.
12 Before downfall the heart of man becometh haughty, and before honor goeth humility.
Avufga ra hu'zamo'a, henka hazenkefi kavrentena manigahane. Hianagi knare hunka anteraminka mani'zamo'a, kazerisga huno knare kagi kamigahie.
13 When one returneth an answer before he understandeth [the question], it is folly unto him and shame.
Iza'o kema antahi anke ore'neno ke'nonama hanimo'a, agra neginagi avu'ava nehuno agaze zana agra'a erigahie.
14 The spirit of a man will readily bear his disease; but a depressed spirit who can bear:
Krima eri'nesimo'ma ana zankuma antahintahi hakarema osaniana, ana krifina amane manino vugahie. Hianagi vahe'mofo antahintahimoma havizama haniana, iza knarera huno manigahie?
15 The heart of the man of understanding will obtain knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
Maka'zama antahi ankere vahe'mo'a, knare antahintahima erinakura muse nehie. Knare vahe'mo'a agesazofo huteno nemanie.
16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and before great men will it lead him.
Musezama eri'neno esimofona, kafana anagisigeno keagama hukuma hania rankva nera negesigeno, keaga humigahie.
17 He that is first in his cause seemeth just; but when his neighbor cometh, then will it be investigated.
Keagafima otinesia ne'ma ese'ma keagama refkoma huno kesiana tamage hugahazanagi, anantema antahigesia ne'mo, hazenke'a keno erifore hugahie.
18 The lot causeth disputes to cease, and it decideth between the mighty.
Taisi zokagoma re'zamo ha' frama hu'zana eri fru nehuno, hanave netremoke'ma ha'ma hu'zana zanazeri netane.
19 A brother offended is harder [to be won] than a strong town; and quarrels [among brothers] are like the bars of a castle.
Kagrama negafu'ma arimpama azeri havizama hu'nenana ne'ma avare'zamo'a, rankumamofo hanavenentake vihu hunteankna huno negafu'ma avare'zamo'a amuho hu'ne. Ha' frama hu'zamo'a, rone ka'a hanavenentake kafa erigino rentroko huno, refko hiankna hugahie.
20 From the fruit of a man's mouth is his body satisfied; with the product of his lips doth he satisfy himself.
Knare kema kagipintima atiramisuno'a, knare ne'zama nankeno kamuma hiankna huno kaza hugahie. Fatgo kema hanana kemo'a, kazeri knare hugahie.
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it will eat its fruit.
Kekamo'a vahera zamazeri so'e nehuno, zamazeri havizana hugahie. Hagi kema huzantema avesima nentesimo'a, ana ke'amoma rentesia raga'a agra'a erigahie.
22 Whoso hath found a wife hath found happiness, and hath obtained favor from the Lord.
Iza'o a'ma hakreno erinesimo'a, knare'za hakreno eri'neankino, Ra Anumzamo'a avesinente.
23 The poor speaketh entreatingly; but the rich answereth roughly.
Amunte omane vahe'mo'a, asumaraginteno azama hanigu meme nehianagi, feno vahe'mo'a, hanave kefinti kenona nehie.
24 A man's many companions are hurtful to him; but there is many a friend that cleaveth closer than a brother.
Rama'a ronekamo'a kazeri haviza hugahianagi, tamage ronekamo'a negafuma nehiaza huno tava'onkare manigahie.
