Proverbs 5
1 My son, listen carefully to some [more] wise things that I will tell you. Listen well to what I am going to teach you.
Kachapa, kachihna hi khohsah inlang ka thumop hi phaten ngaijin. Kathil hetkhen theina hi phatea nakol sunga nangai ding ahi.
2 If you do that, you will be able to choose wisely [what to do], and you will know [the right things] to say [MTY].
Ajeh chu thil hetkhen theina neijin natin, nakam sung jenga jong hetthemna um jing ding ahi.
3 What an immoral woman says [to you may be] as sweet as honey, and sound smoother than olive oil [feels on your skin],
Numei jong ho lei-chu khoiju lhumma lhum ding, athusei chan-u thao kinu sanga jolji ahi.
4 but the result [of being with her] will be bitter like gall and [injure you as badly], like being cut with a sharp two-edged sword.
Hinlah achaina chu guu-banga kha jia, chule hemto chemjam banga hemji ahi.
5 If you go where she goes [MTY], you will go down to where the dead people are. Her steps will lead you straight to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Akeng tenin thina'a apui lutjia, noimi gam chan'a chelut ding ahi. (Sheol h7585)
6 She is not concerned about the roads that lead to a [long] life. She walks [down] a crooked path, and she does not realize [that she is on the wrong road].
Hitobang numei hin hinna lampi anahsah jipon, achena tincheng anoh phah jin, amanun-la akihet doh jipon ahi.
7 So now, my sons, listen to me. (Never turn aside from/always remember) [LIT] what I am about to tell you.
Hijeh chun tun kachapa teho kasei ngaijun, kahilna thuchang hoakon hin jammang ding go hih beh un.
8 Run away from immoral women! Do not go near the doors of their houses!
Hiche numeinua kon khun kidalseu vin, akotpi phung lam'a jong chenai ding go hih beh un.
9 If you enter the home of one of them, you will lose your (self-respect/good reputation) and [that woman’s husband] will not act mercifully toward you; he will [kill you and] take everything that you have acquired during your life!
Hitia chu nabol lou ule, mihoa kon jabolna nachan lou ding, nahin kho sunga min nakhoto thei lou ding ahi.
10 Foreigners will take your money, and [all] the good things that you have worked for will (end up in their hands/become their possessions).
Hetkhah lou mihon nahatna le nahaona aboncha a-luo diu, natohga jouse jong michom beh in a-luo ding ahi.
11 And when you are about to die, you will groan [with severe pain] because diseases [that you have gotten from being immoral] will be destroying your body.
Na hinkho ajona lam teng gim hesoh nato ding, natahsa pumpi manthahna aso diu ahi.
12 Then you will say, “I hated it [when people tried to] correct me. I despised [people when they] reproved/rebuked me.
Chuteng nangin seijin natin, “Kigah chahna hi ichan-a kana thet a, phosalna hi iti kana thet hitam?
13 I did not heed what my teachers said! I paid no attention to those who [tried to] teach me [something about my behavior].
Keiman eihil ho thu kana donse pon, ka dinga thusei ho jeng jong kana donse tapoi.
14 [Now] I am almost ruined, and I will be disgraced in public gatherings.”
Tuhin mipi kikhopna'a kon keima mah thahna mun kalhun kon ahitai, tia nasei ding ahi.”
15 Like a man is refreshed by drinking water from his own well [MET], enjoy [having sex] [EUP] only with your own wife.
Nangma twikhuh'a kon hung potdoh twi chu kidon jeng tan.
16 Like you would not waste good water by pouring it into the street, [you should not have sex with other women]. [MET, EUP]
Na twikhuh dunga twi put chu muntin'a hetdoh-a um'a chule kholai tinchanga um mong ding hinam?
17 Enjoy [having sex] only with your wife; do not [have sex with] other women.
Hichu nanga ding bouvin koiyin, nakom'a hung maljin vang nachan sah lou ding ahi.
18 Let your wife be a source of great pleasure to you. (Be happy/[Enjoy sex]) with the woman whom you married when you were both young.
Na twikhuh chu phatthei chang tahen, nangma tah jong nasenji chunga kipah tan.
19 She is as pretty and graceful [as] a young female deer. Allow her breasts to always satisfy you. Allow her lovemaking to excite you.
Na deitah na jinu sajuh golpai hoitah le sajuh chal hoitah bang in, phat tin in aman nahebolna nachunga lhung jing hen, amanu anglum jal'a kipah jing nahin, aman natuh chah jing hi nalungset phot chetna ahi.
20 My son, do not be [RHQ] captivated/charmed by an immoral woman! Do not fondle the breasts of another man’s wife!
Kachapa, i-atileh numei chon chavei chu naki ngaipi jing a, hitobang numei kampao phalou chu a-anglum'a um ding nagot jing ham?
21 [I say that] because Yahweh sees clearly everything that we do; he knows [where we are going on] the roads that we walk on.
Ajeh chu Yahweh Pakai hi mihem lam lhah jouse ve-jing ahin, alam lhah na jouse avet-jing ahi.
22 Evil men’s sinful desires hold them fast; their sins are [like] ropes that bind them.
Miphalou chu a chondih lounan akipalsah teijin, a chonsetna chun atuh chahji ahitai.
23 Evil men [will] die because they are unable to say “No” to their desires; they [will] (go astray/be lost) because of the foolish things that they do.
Ama chu kigah chana beija thina chang ding, a ngol-ga chun manthahna asoji ahi.
