Proverbs 2
1 My son, listen to what I say, and [consider my instructions to be as valuable as] [MET] a treasure.
Mofavre'nimoke, Nagri kema antahinka kasegenima eri kagu'afi nentenka,
2 Pay attention to wisdom and try hard to understand it.
knare antahintahire kagesa neminka, kagu tumokareti hunka ama' antahi'zana e'nerinka,
3 Call out [to God] to get insight; plead with him to help you to understand more [of what he wants you to know].
kagrama knare'zane havizanema refko hu antahintahigu'ene, ama' antahizanku'ma kezama netinka,
4 Search [eagerly] for wisdom, like you would search for silver, like you would search for a treasure that someone has hidden.
silvagu'ma hiankna hunka knare antahizankura nehakrenka, marerisa zantami frakinte'nea zanku hakreankna hunka hakresunka,
5 If you do that, you will understand how to revere Yahweh, and you will succeed in knowing God.
Ra Anumzamofoma kore hunteno agoragama manizana keama nehunka, Anumzamofo antahi'zana hakrenka erifore hugahane.
6 Yahweh is the one who gives us wisdom. He is the one who tells us things that we need to know and understand.
Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a knare antahiza neramigeno, Agri agipinti antahi'zane, antahi ama'ma huzamofo kea ne-e.
7 He gives good advice to those who conduct their lives as they should. He protects [MET] those who do what is right.
Fatgo vahe'mofona knare antahiza ante avitenenteno, makazampima mani fatgoma huno mania vahe'mofona, Agra hanko zamigna nehie.
8 He guards those who act justly/fairly [toward others], and he watches over those who are faithful/loyal [to him].
Na'ankure Agrake fatgo vahe'mokizmia kama vano hu'zazmifina kegava nehuno, zamagu tumoteti hu'za amage'ma antaza nagara kavu'za zamifina zamagu nevazie.
9 [If you ask God for wisdom], you will understand what is right and just [DOU] [to do], and [you will know] the right way to conduct your life,
Ana nehunka fatgo avu'avazane, fatgo huno ke refkohu avu'ava ene, maka vahe'ma mago avamente avu'ava'ma hunte'zana antahi ankeregahane.
10 because you will be wise in your inner being; and knowing [what God wants you to know] will cause you to be joyful.
Na'ankure knare antahintahimo kagu'afi unefrenigeno, antahi'zamo'a, kazeri muse hugahie.
11 If you know [PRS] how to choose what is right to do and if you understand [what God wants] you to do, God will protect you and guard you and keep you safe.
Knare antahizamo'a kva hugante'nenigeno, ama' antahintahimo'a kaguvazigahie.
12 If you are wise [PRS], you will not do what evil people do, and you will not [believe what] deceitful people say.
Knare antahizamo'a kefo avu'avaza'ma nehu'za, akrehe krehe zmageru'ma neraza vahepintira, kaza huno kagu'vazigahie.
13 Deceitful people have stopped acting fairly/justly [toward others] and (walk on dark and evil paths/do what evil people do) [MET].
Iza'o fatgo avu'avamofo kama atremo'a, hani avu'avamofo kampi nevie.
14 They enjoy doing what is wrong; they like to do what is evil and to deceive [people].
Iza'o knare osu avu'ava'ma musema huno nehuno, akrehe krehe kefo avu'avazankuma muse nehimo'a,
15 They (walk on crooked paths/always deceive others) and are always dishonest.
kama vu'zama'amo fatgo osu'neankino, havige vahe manine.
16 If you are wise [PRS], you will [also] be saved from (immoral women/prostitutes); you will not pay attention when adulterous women try to (seduce/entice you by what they say.)
Arumofo a'mo monko'za huno vano nehania a'mo, nagrane eno huno kazeri savri hu'naku hanianagi, ana knare antahintahi'zamo'a kahokeno kaguvazigahie.
17 Those women have left the husbands whom they married when they were young; they have disregarded the solemn promise they made to God [not to commit adultery].
Ana a'mo nevena netreno, kahefazniare Anumzamofo avure'ma huhagerafina'a huvempa kea amefi hunemie.
18 If you go into houses of women who are like that, you will die [when you are still young]; the road [to their houses] leads to hell. (questioned)
Na'ankure ana a'mofo nompima ufre'sanana, fri vahe'mokizmi kumate vu'nea kampi vugahane.
19 No man who (visits/sleeps with) a woman like that will again [live harmoniously with his family]. He will never have a [happy] life again.
Agrite'ma vimo'a eteno omeno, knare asimu eri kana onkegahie.
20 If [you are wise], you should behave like good men behave. You should (stay on the paths that righteous [people] walk on/do what godly people do) [MET],
E'ina hu'negu knare vahe'mo'ma nevia kante nevunka, fatgo avu'ava'ma nehia vahe'mofo kante vugahane.
21 because only godly people will live in this land [and receive God’s blessings]; [only] those who have not done wrong will stay here [for a long time].
Na'ankure hazenkezmi omane vahe'mo'za ana moparera nemani'nesage'za, maka zampima mani fatgoma nehaza vahe'mo'za ana mopare manigahaze.
22 Wicked [people] will be expelled from this land, and [people] who are not trustworthy will be thrown {God will throw them} out of it.
Hianagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahe'mokizmia ana mopafintira zamazu hunetreno, fatgoma hu'za omanisaza vahera zamahe fanane hugahie.
