Proverbs 16
1 It perteyneth to man to make redi the soule; and it perteyneth to the Lord to gouerne the tunge.
Ko nga whakatakataka a te ngakau na te tangata; engari ko te kupu whakahoki a te arero na Ihowa.
2 Alle the weies of men ben opyn to the iyen of God; the Lord is a weiere of spiritis.
Ko nga ara katoa o te tangata he ma ki ona ake kanohi; ko Ihowa ia ki te pauna i nga wairua.
3 Schewe thi werkys to the Lord; and thi thouytis schulen be dressid.
Utaina au mahi ki runga ki a Ihowa, a ka whakapumautia ou whakaaro.
4 The Lord wrouyte alle thingis for hym silf; and he made redi a wickid man to the yuel dai.
He mea hanga na Ihowa nga mea katoa mo tona tutukitanga, mo tona: ae ra, ko te tangata kino hoki mo te ra o te kino.
5 Abhomynacioun of the Lord is ech proude man; yhe, thouy the hond is to the hond, he schal not be innocent. The bigynnyng of good weie is to do riytwisnesse; forsothe it is more acceptable at God, than to offre sacrifices.
He mea whakarihariha na Ihowa te hunga ngakau whakakake katoa; ahakoa pupuri te ringa ki te ringa, e kore ia e kore te whiua.
6 Wickidnesse is ayen bouyt bi merci and treuthe; and me bowith awei fro yuel bi the drede of the Lord.
Ko te mahi tohu tangata me te pono hei pure mo te kino; ma te wehi hoki ki a Ihowa ka mawehe atu ai te tangata i te kino.
7 Whanne the weyes of man plesen the Lord, he schal conuerte, yhe, hise enemyes to pees.
Ki te pai a Ihowa ki nga ara o te tangata, ka meinga e ia ona hoariri nei ano kia mau te rongo ki a ia.
