Proverbs 23
1 When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, thou shalt consider well, what is before thee;
Di da mimogo dunu ali gilisili ha: i nasea, amo esega noga: le dawa: ma.
2 And shalt put a knife to thy throat, if, of great appetite, thou art:
Di da ha: i manu bagade manusa: dawa: sea, di ha: i buludili mae moma.
3 Do not crave his dainties, for, the same, are deceitful food.
E da dia hou ogogole adoba: sa: besa: le, mae uasuli moma.
4 Do not toil to get wealth, of thine own understanding, forbear:
Di da noga: le molole dawa: ma. Di da liligi bagade gagumu hanaiba: le hawa: hamonana, dia gasa gufia: ne gala: mu da defea hame.
5 Wilt thou let thine eye fly thereupon, when it is nothing? for it will, surely make, itself wings, Like an eagle, will it wing its way across the heavens.
Dia muni amo ea ebelebe da hedolodafa si abo gelebe agoai ba: sa. Amola amo da buhiba ea ougia hinabo aligili wa: leahoabe agoai.
6 Do not eat the food of him that hath a begrudging eye, neither crave thou his dainties;
Di da gegenane uasuli nasu dunu amo ea ha: i manu ida: iwane mae uasuli moma.
7 For, just as he hath thought in his own mind, so, he is: Eat and drink! he may say to thee, but, his heart, is not with thee.
Amo gegenane uasuli nasu dunu da eso huluane amo ha: i manu ea bidi bagadega lai amo dawa: lala. E da aowalale amane sia: sa, “Defea! Bu bagade ha: i amola waini moma!” Be e da ogogole sia: sa. Ea houdafa da ea asigi dawa: su defele gala.
8 As for thy morsel thou hast eaten, thou shalt vomit it, so shalt thou waste thy things so sweet.
Di da dia mai liligi amo bu isole fasimu. Amola dia ema dabuagado ofa: su sia: da ogogole ofa: su sia: udigili ha: digi agoai ba: mu.
9 In the ears of a dullard, do not speak, for he will despise the good sense of thy words.
Di gagaoui dunuma moloi dawa: su sia: amo mae sia: ma. E da dia sia: ida: iwane dawa: mu da hamedei galebe.
10 Do not move back the ancient boundary, and, into the fields of the fatherless, do not enter;
Musa: soge alalo legei amo maedafa gua: ma. Amola guluba: mano ilia soge amo mae wamolama.
11 For, their near of kin, is strong, he, will plead their cause with thee.
Bai Hina Gode da ilima gasa bagade Gaga: su dunu esala. E da ilimagale, dima fofada: mu.
12 Bring, to correction, thy heart, and thine ears, to the sayings of knowledge.
Dia olelesu dunu amo ea olelebe hamugini nabima amola noga: le hamoma.
13 Do not withhold, from a child, correction, When thou smitest him with the rod, he shall not die:
Dia mano da wadela: le hamosea, ema hedolo se ima. Dawa: ma: ne fasea, amo mano da hame bogomu.
Be amo dawa: ma: ne fasu da ea esalusu gaga: mu. (Sheol h7585)
15 My son! if thy heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
Nagofe! Di da dawa: ida: iwane lasea, na da hahawane bagade ba: mu.
16 So shall my reins exult, when thy lips speak the things that are right.
Di da dawa: su ida: iwane sia: sia: sea, na da dima nodone dawa: mu.
17 Let not thy heart be envious of sinners, only of the reverence of Yahweh, all day long;
Wadela: i hamosu dunu ilia hamobe amoga hamomusa: , mae mudale hanama. Be eso huluane Hina Godema nodone dawa: ma.
18 For surely there is a future, and, thine expectation, shall not be cut off.
Amaiwane hamosea, di da hahawane esalumu.
19 Hear, thou, my son, and be wise, and lead forward, in duty, thy heart.
Nagofe! Nabima! Molole dawa: ma amola dia esalusu noga: le ouligima.
20 Do not be among them who tipple with wine, —among them who are gluttons;
Di da adini bagade nasu dunu amola ha: i fufuluba nasu dunu ilima mae gilisima.
21 For, the tippler and the glutton, shall come to poverty, and, rags, shall Slumber put on!
Feloai dunu amola ha: i fufuluba nasu dunu da hedolo liligi hame gagui dunu agoai ba: mu. Dia da ha: i nasu amola golasu amo fawane hamosea, di da gagadelai abula amo fawane ga: i ba: mu.
22 Hearken to thy father here, who begat thee, and despise not, when she is old, thy mother.
Nagofe! Dia ada ea sia: noga: le nabima! E da di hame hamoi ganiaba, di da hame esalala: loba. Dia ame da da: i hamosea, e da di noga: le ouligiba: le, ema nodoma.
23 Truth, buy thou, but do not sell, wisdom, and correction, and understanding.
Moloidafa hou, olelesu, molole dawa: su amola asigi dawa: su ida: iwane gala. Amo liligi bidiga lamu da defea. Be lai dagoiba: le, eno dunuma mae alofele lama. Bai amo liligi lasu defei da gadodafa.
24 Greatly shall exult, the father of a righteous man, and, he that begetteth a wise son, shall rejoice in him:
Dunu moloidafa ea ada da hahawane bagade. Dia gofe da molole dawa: su hou lai galea, di da ema nodone dawa: mu da defea.
25 Rejoice shall thy father and thy mother, yea she, shall exult, who bare thee.
Nagofe! Dia ada amola ame da dia hou nodone ba: ma: ne, hou moloiwane hamoma. Dia ame hahawane ba: ma: ne hamoma.
26 Oh give, my son, thy mind unto me, and let, thine eyes, observe, my ways;
Nagofe! Hamugini noga: le nabima. Na esalebe defele, dia esaloma.
27 For, a deep chasm, is the unchaste woman, and, a narrow pit, the female unknown;
Uda hina: da: i bidi lasu amola eno wadela: i hamosu uda da bogosu sani agoai gala.
28 Yea, she, as for prey, lieth in wait, and, the treacherous among mankind, she causeth to abound.
Ilia da wamolasu dunu agoane di wadela: lesimusa: desega lela. Ilia agoane hamobeba: le, dunu bagohame da ilia udama baligi fa: sa.
29 Who hath woe? Who hath outcry of pain? Who hath contentions? Who hath complaining? Who hath needless wounds? Who hath dullness of eyes?
Nowa dunu da waini hano bagade nasea amola gaheabolo adini hogoi helesea, e da bagade da: i diosa amola mosolasu hamosa, amola eso huluane egasa. Ea si da maga: me gasagala: i amola ea da: i da udigili fofonomane gagai.
30 They who tarry over wine, they who go in to search for mixed wine.
31 Do not look on wine when it becometh red, when it giveth in the cup its sparkle, glideth down smoothly.
Waini hano da ulasuyei amola faigelei gelabo ganodini bubunuma heda: sa amola noga: le da: gisa. Be dafama: ne adoba: sa: besa: le, waini hano manusa: mae magesa: ima.
32 Its after effect, is that, like a serpent, it biteth, and, like a viper, it doth sting.
Waini hano nalu, diahabe, wa: legadole, di da saya: bega gasomai agoai ba: mu.
33 Thine eyes, will see strange women, and, thy heart, will speak perverse things:
Dia da: i da felowai agoai ba: le, noga: le dawa: le sia: mu gogolei ba: mu.
34 So shalt thou become, as one lying down in the heart of the sea, —or as one lying down on the top of the mastgear:
Di da dusagai ganodini fila heda: le ahoasea da dia hagomo sasaleabe, amo agoai ba: mu.
35 They smote me—I felt no pain, They struck me down—I noticed it not, —When shall I wake up? I will go on, I will seek it, again!
Di da agoane sia: mu, “Na da enoga fabela: ? Be amo na da gogolei. Abuliba: le na da noga: le hame nedigisa. Na da adini eno manu galebe.”
