Proverbs 18
1 One who isolates himself seeks his own desire and he quarrels with all sound judgment.
Agra'aku'ma nemanisia vahe'mo'a, agraguke agesa nentahie. Knare antahizama eri'nea vaheku'enena ana ne'mo'a avesiozmantegahie.
2 A fool finds no pleasure in understanding, but only in revealing what is in his own heart.
Neginagi vahe'mo'a ama' antahintahima erizankura, musena osugosie. Hianagi agra'a antahi'zanke hu'netreno manigahie.
3 When a wicked person comes, contempt comes with him— along with shame and reproach.
Kefo avu'ava'ene vahe'mo'a, mago'a vahekura antahi amane'za neseno, zamagi'a eri haviza nehuno, zamagaze erinezamie.
4 The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is a flowing stream.
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 be partial to the wicked person, nor to deny justice to the righteous person.
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 A fool's lips bring him conflict and his mouth invites a beating.
Neginagi vahe'mofo kemo'a, hafra hu'za eri fore nehigeno, ana ke'zmimo'a kanonkevegu meme nehie.
7 A fool's mouth is his ruin and he ensnares himself with his lips.
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 gossip are like delicious morsels and they go down into the inner parts of the body.
Vahe agenkema hu'zamo'a, haga ne'zankna hu'neankino, ame huno vahe agu'afina ufregahie.
9 Also, one who is slack in his work is a brother to the one who destroys the most.
Zaferina omane feru vahe'mo'a, maka'zama eri havizama nehia vahe'mofo nefu manine.
10 The name of Yahweh is a strong tower; the righteous person runs into it and is safe.
Ra Anumzamofo agimo'a hanavenentake vihugna hu'neankino, fatgo vahe'mo'za agritega zamagare'za nevazageno, zamagu nevazie.
11 The wealth of the rich is his fortified city and in his imagination it is like a high wall.
Feno vahe'mofo fenomo'a ra kuma zmimofo vihugna hu'neakino, kegava hurantenkenta knare huta manigahune hu'za nentahize.
12 Before his downfall a person's heart is proud, but humility comes before honor.
Avufga ra hu'zamo'a, henka hazenkefi kavrentena manigahane. Hianagi knare hunka anteraminka mani'zamo'a, kazerisga huno knare kagi kamigahie.
13 One who answers before listening— it is his folly and shame.
Iza'o kema antahi anke ore'neno ke'nonama hanimo'a, agra neginagi avu'ava nehuno agaze zana agra'a erigahie.
14 A person's spirit will survive sickness, but a broken spirit who can bear it?
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 intelligent acquires knowledge and the hearing of the wise seeks it out.
Maka'zama antahi ankere vahe'mo'a, knare antahintahima erinakura muse nehie. Knare vahe'mo'a agesazofo huteno nemanie.
16 A man's gift may open the way and bring him before an important person.
Musezama eri'neno esimofona, kafana anagisigeno keagama hukuma hania rankva nera negesigeno, keaga humigahie.
17 The first to plead his case seems right until his opponent comes and questions him.
Keagafima otinesia ne'ma ese'ma keagama refkoma huno kesiana tamage hugahazanagi, anantema antahigesia ne'mo, hazenke'a keno erifore hugahie.
18 Casting the lot settles disputes and separates strong opponents.
Taisi zokagoma re'zamo ha' frama hu'zana eri fru nehuno, hanave netremoke'ma ha'ma hu'zana zanazeri netane.
19 An offended brother is harder to be won than a strong city, and quarreling is 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 his mouth one's stomach is filled; with the harvest of his lips he is satisfied.
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 controlled by the tongue, and those who love the tongue 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 He who finds a wife finds a good thing and receives favor from Yahweh.
Iza'o a'ma hakreno erinesimo'a, knare'za hakreno eri'neankino, Ra Anumzamo'a avesinente.
23 A poor person pleads for mercy, but a rich person answers harshly.
Amunte omane vahe'mo'a, asumaraginteno azama hanigu meme nehianagi, feno vahe'mo'a, hanave kefinti kenona nehie.
24 The one who claims many friends is brought to ruin by them, but there is a friend who comes closer than a brother.
Rama'a ronekamo'a kazeri haviza hugahianagi, tamage ronekamo'a negafuma nehiaza huno tava'onkare manigahie.
