Proverbs 3
1 Mi sone, foryete thou not my lawe; and thyn herte kepe my comaundementis.
Mũrũ wakwa, ndũkariganĩrwo nĩ ũrutani wakwa, no ngoro yaku nĩĩrũmagie maathani makwa,
2 For tho schulen sette to thee the lengthe of daies, and the yeeris of lijf, and pees.
nĩgũkorwo nĩmagakuongerera matukũ ũtũũre mĩaka mĩingĩ, na matũme ũgaacĩre.
3 Merci and treuthe forsake thee not; bynde thou tho to thi throte, and write in the tablis of thin herte.
Ndũkanareke wendani na wĩhokeku ikweherere; cioherere ngingo yaku, ũciandĩke kĩhengere-inĩ kĩa ngoro yaku.
4 And thou schalt fynde grace, and good teching bifore God and men.
Weka ũguo nĩũgeetĩkĩrĩka, na ũgĩe na rĩĩtwa rĩega maitho-inĩ ma Ngai o na ma andũ.
5 Haue thou trist in the Lord, of al thin herte; and triste thou not to thi prudence.
Wĩhoke Jehova na ngoro yaku yothe, na ndũkanehoke ũmenyo waku mwene;
6 In alle thi weies thenke thou on hym, and he schal dresse thi goyngis.
mũmenyithagie mĩthiĩre yaku yothe, na nĩarĩrũngaga njĩra ciaku.
7 Be thou not wijs anentis thi silf; drede thou God, and go awei fro yuel.
Tiga kwĩonaga ũrĩ mũũgĩ maitho-inĩ maku mwene; wĩtigĩre Jehova na ũtheemage maũndũ marĩa mooru.
8 For whi helthe schal be in thi nawle, and moisting of thi boonys.
Ũndũ ũcio nĩũrĩkũrehagĩra ũgima wa mwĩrĩ, na mahĩndĩ maku makoragwo marĩ na hinya.
9 Onoure thou the Lord of thi catel, and of the beste of alle thi fruytis yyue thou to pore men;
Tĩĩaga Jehova na ũtonga waku, ningĩ ũmũtĩĩage na maciaro mothe ma mbere ma irio ciaku cia mĩgũnda;
10 and thi bernes schulen be fillid with abundaunce, and pressours schulen flowe with wiyn.
namo makũmbĩ maku nĩmakaiyũrĩrĩra, nayo mĩtũngi yaku ĩiyũrĩrĩre ndibei ya mũhihano.
11 My sone, caste thou not awei the teching of the Lord; and faile thou not, whanne thou art chastisid of him.
Mũrũ wakwa, tiga kũnyarara ihũũra rĩa Jehova, na ndũgathũũre irũithia rĩake,
12 For the Lord chastisith hym, whom he loueth; and as a fadir in the sone he plesith hym.
nĩgũkorwo Jehova arũithagia arĩa endete, o ta ũrĩa ithe wa mũndũ arũithagia mũriũ ũrĩa akenagĩra.
13 Blessid is the man that fyndith wisdom, and which flowith with prudence.
Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wonete ũũgĩ, mũndũ ũcio wĩgĩĩrĩire na ũmenyo,
14 The geting therof is betere than the marchaundie of gold and of siluer; the fruytis therof ben the firste and clenneste.
nĩgũkorwo ũũgĩ nĩ wa bata mũno gũkĩra betha, na ũciaraga uumithio ũkĩrĩte wa thahabu.
15 It is preciousere than alle richessis; and alle thingis that ben desirid, moun not be comparisound to this.
Ũũgĩ ũrĩ goro gũkĩra ruru iria ndune; kĩrĩa gĩothe ũngĩĩrirĩria gũtirĩ kĩngĩringithanio naguo.
16 Lengthe of daies is in the riythalf therof, and richessis and glorie ben in the lifthalf therof.
Guoko-inĩ gwake kwa ũrĩo harĩ ũingĩ wa matukũ; guoko-inĩ gwake kwa ũmotho harĩ na ũtonga na gĩtĩĩo.
17 The weies therof ben feire weies, and alle the pathis therof ben pesible.
Mĩthiĩre ya ũũgĩ nĩ mĩthiĩre ya kwendeka, na njĩra ciaguo ciothe nĩ cia thayũ.
18 It is a tre of lijf to hem that taken it; and he that holdith it, is blessid.
Ũũgĩ nĩ mũtĩ wa muoyo kũrĩ arĩa maũhĩmbagĩria; arĩa megĩagĩra naguo-rĩ, nĩmarĩrathimagwo.
19 The Lord foundide the erthe bi wisdom; he stablischide heuenes bi prudence.
Jehova aahandire mĩthingi ya thĩ na ũũgĩ, na akĩrũmia igũrũ na ũmenyo wake;
20 The depthis of watris braken out bi his wisdom; and cloudis wexen togidere bi dewe.
ũmenyo wake nĩguo wagayanirie kũrĩa kũriku, namo matu magatatagia ime.
21 My sone, these thingis flete not awey fro thin iyen; kepe thou my lawe, and my counsel;
Mũrũ wakwa tũũria matua mega na ũkũũrani maũndũ, ndũkanareke ciehere maitho-inĩ maku;
22 and lijf schal be to thi soule, and grace `schal be to thi chekis.
nĩcio igaagũtũũria muoyo, na nĩ ithaga rĩa kũgemagia ngingo yaku.
23 Thanne thou schalt go tristili in thi weie; and thi foot schal not snapere.
Ningĩ ũrĩthiiaga na njĩra yaku ũrĩ na thayũ, na kũgũrũ gwaku gũtikahĩngwo;
24 If thou schalt slepe, thou schalt not drede; thou schalt reste, and thi sleep schal be soft.
Wakoma-rĩ, ndũgetigĩra; wakoma-rĩ, ũrĩkomaga toro mwega.
25 Drede thou not bi sudeyne feer, and the powers of wickid men fallynge in on thee.
Ndũgetigĩre mwanangĩko wa narua, kana kĩhuhũkanio kĩrĩa gĩkoragĩrĩra andũ arĩa aaganu,
26 For the Lord schal be at thi side; and he schal kepe thi foot, that thou be not takun.
nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩwe ũgaatuĩka mwĩhoko waku, na amenyagĩrĩre kũgũrũ gwaku gũtikanyiitwo nĩ mũtego.
27 Nil thou forbede to do wel him that mai; if thou maist, and do thou wel.
Ndũkanagirĩrĩrie ũndũ mwega ũkinyĩre arĩa maagĩrĩirwo nĩgũkinyĩrĩrwo nĩguo, rĩrĩa ũrĩ na ũhoti wa kũhingia ũndũ ũcio.
28 Seie thou not to thi frend, Go, and turne thou ayen, and to morewe Y schal yyue to thee; whanne thou maist yyue anoon.
Ndũkaneere mũndũ wa itũũra rĩaku atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũgooka rĩngĩ; kĩu ũrenda nĩngakũhe rũciũ,” o rĩrĩa ũrĩ na kĩndũ kĩu hakuhĩ.
29 Ymagyne thou not yuel to thi freend, whanne he hath trist in thee.
Ndũkanaciirĩre gwĩka mũndũ wa itũũra rĩaku ũũru, ũcio ũtũũraga hakuhĩ nawe akwĩhokete.
30 Stryue thou not ayens a man with out cause, whanne he doith noon yuel to thee.
Ndũkanarũithie mũndũ tũhũ, rĩrĩa atarĩ ũndũ mũũru agwĩkĩte.
31 Sue thou not an vniust man, sue thou not hise weies.
Ndũkanacumĩkĩre maũndũ ma mũndũ wa ngũĩ, kana ũthuure njĩra o na ĩmwe yake,
32 For ech disseyuer is abhomynacioun of the Lord; and his speking is with simple men.
nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩathũire mũndũ mwaganu, no nĩagĩĩaga ndundu na andũ arĩa arũngĩrĩru.
33 Nedinesse is sent of the Lord in the hous of a wickid man; but the dwelling places of iust men schulen be blessid.
Nyũmba ya arĩa aaganu ĩtũũraga na kĩrumi kĩa Jehova, no mũciĩ wa arĩa athingu nĩaũrathimaga.
34 He schal scorne scorneris; and he schal yyue grace to mylde men.
Jehova nĩanyũrũragia andũ arĩa manyũrũranagia na mwĩtĩĩo, no arĩa menyiihagia nĩamaheaga wega wake.
35 Wise men schulen haue glorie; enhaunsing of foolis is schenschipe.
Andũ arĩa oogĩ magayaga gĩtĩĩo, no andũ arĩa akĩĩgu magayaga njono.
