Proverbs 25
1 These [are] also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied out.
Soloumone ea malasu meloa dedei eno da goe. Yuda soge hina bagade Hesigaia, amo ea sia: dedesu dunu ilia da bu dedei.
2 [It is] the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings [is] to search out a matter.
Gode da hou oda wamolegebeba: le, ninia da Ema nodone dawa: sa. Be hina bagade da hou huluane mae wamolegele ninima olelebeba: le fawane, ilima nodone dawa: sa.
3 The heaven for hight, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings [is] unsearchable.
Hina bagade dunu ea dawa: su da ninia dawa: mu hamedeidafa. Be ea dawa: su da gadodafa amola hano wayabo lugudu gududafa agoai gala.
4 Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.
Dilia da silifa amoga nigima: dialebe amo dodofele fasisia, noga: le momadobe dunu ea liligi amo noga: le nina: hahamonesisu dawa:
5 Take away the wicked [from] before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness.
Wadela: i fada: i sia: su dunu da hina bagade ea hou wadela: sa. Be amo dunu fadegale fasisia, hina bagade da ea fi noga: le ouligimu.
6 Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great [men]:
Di da hina bagade amo ba: la masea, di da asabole fonoboi dunu agoai ba: mu da defea. Di da mimogo gasa bagade ba: ma: ne mae ogogoma.
7 For better [it is] that it be said to thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldst be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thy eyes have seen.
Dunu ilia da di fa: no aligi sogebi fisili, bisili aligi sogebi amoga heda: ma: ne sia: mu da defea. Be ilia dima bisili aligi sogebi amo fisili, gudu sa: ili, fa: no aligi sogebi masa: ne sia: sea, di da gogosiamu.
8 Go not forth hastily to strive, lest [thou know not] what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbor hath put thee to shame.
Di da dia ba: i liligi amo hedolowane mae fofada: ma. Amola dunu enoga dia sia: gufuli salasea, dia da adi hamoma: bela: ?
9 Debate thy cause with thy neighbor [himself]; and reveal not a secret to another:
Dia na: iyado alia da: i dioi amo sia: dasea, alisudafa olofole ado sa: ima. Amola amo sia: dunu enoma mae adole ima.
10 Lest he that heareth [it] put thee to shame, and thy infamy turn not away.
Di da amo sia: hame wamolegesea, dunu eno huluane da dawa: digili, sia: da bagade heda: mu amola di da sia: ouligisu hou hame dawa: ilia dawa: mu. Amasea, di da mae fisili, gogosiane esalumu.
11 A word fitly spoken [is like] apples of gold in pictures of silver.
Dawa: su noga: i amo eno dunuma dawa: ma: ne olelesea, amo da gouli dededei amo silifa bai amoma madelagilisi agoane gala.
12 [As] an ear-ring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, [so is] a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
Noga: le dawa: su dunu da nabimusa: hanai dunu amoma sisane sia: sea, amo hou da noga: idafaba: le, gegagulu gouliga hahamoi amo baligisa.
13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, [so is] a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters.
Asunasisu dunu da sia: noga: le alofele iasu dunu ea hou amo hano nanu anegagi hisi agoai ba: sa.
14 Whoever boasteth himself of a false gift [is like] clouds and wind without rain.
Nowa dunu da udigili liligi imunusa: sia: sea be hame iasea, e da fo amola mobi gilisili mabe agoai, be gibu da dabe hame ba: sa.
15 By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone.
Di da noga: le gebe dadawa: le sia: sea, dunu da musa: gelalu, ilia hou bu afadenene, bu dafawaneyale dawa: mu. Hina bagade dunu amolawane da dia sia: dafawaneyale dawa: mu.
16 Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled with it, and vomit it.
Di da agime ea hano dosogele mae moma. Be di da dosogele nasea, di da isomu.
17 Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbor's house; lest he be weary of thee, and [so] hate thee.
Dia na: iyado ema fofoya sofe mae afufuma. Agoane hamosea, dia na: iyado da dia momafubi ba: i helesea, dima higamu.
18 A man that beareth false witness against his neighbor [is] a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow.
Gasulusu sia: da gegesu gobihei bagade amola gigi amola dadi agesoi defele medosu liligi agoai ba: sa.
19 Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble [is like] a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
Didili hame hamosu dunu da se nabasu doaga: sea, e da dunu eno noga: le hame fidisa. Be di da didili hame hamosu dunu da di noga: le fidimu amo dafawaneyale dawa: sea, amo da bese wagoi amoga ha: i nabe amola emo gasuga: igi amoga ahoabe agoai ba: sa.
20 [As] he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, [and as] vinegar upon nitre; so [is] he that singeth songs to a heavy heart.
Di da da: i dioi nabasu dunu ema gesami hea: le gala: sea, e da se nabimu. Di da asugi esala lalu houlalebe dunu ema anegagi esoga ea abula gisa: le, o dunu ea fa: gi da: iya sali legesea, seselebe, amo hou defele ba: sa.
21 If thy enemy shall hunger, give him bread to eat; and if he shall thirst, give him water to drink:
Dia ha lai dunu da ha: i galea, ha: i manu ima. Amola e hano hanai galea, hano moma: ne ema dili ima.
22 For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD will reward thee.
Amasea, e da da: i dia: ne gogosiamu. Amola Hina Gode da dima bidi imunu.
23 The north wind driveth away rain: so [doth] an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.
Baligidu sia: su da foga gibu mini mabe agoai, ougi hou gaguli maha.
24 [It is] better to dwell in a corner of the house-top, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.
Dunu e da gesa: gesa: i udala gilisili fimu da gasa bagade. Dunu hisu diasu dabua mogoa gado fifi lamu amo ea hou da amo baligisa.
25 [As] cold waters to a thirsty soul, so [is] good news from a far country.
Sia: ida: iwane gala soge sedaga ganini maha da mage hafoga: iba: le hano nanu anegagi hisi agoai ba: sa.
26 A righteous man falling down before the wicked [is as] a turbid fountain, and a corrupt spring.
Moloidafa dunu da dafane, wadela: i hamosu dunu ilia sia: nabasea, amo hou da gu hano ubagei amola hano nasu ulidou ganodini hai amo agoai ba: sa.
27 [It is] not good to eat much honey: so [for men] to search their own glory [is not] glory.
Agime hano dosogele nasea, di da dia hou wadela: lesimu. Amola di da dunu enoga dia hou ofa: ma: ne hogoi helesea, amo da dia hou wadela: lesimu.
28 He that [hath] no rule over his own spirit [is like] a city [that is] broken down, [and] without walls.
Dia mihanasu hou gumimusa: hame dawa: sea, di da gasa hame moilai bai bagade amo ea gagoi da mugululi sa: i agoai ba: sa.
