Proverbs 3
1 Mi sone, foryete thou not my lawe; and thyn herte kepe my comaundementis.
Nwa m echezọla ihe niile m ziri gị. Ma debe iwu m nʼobi gị.
2 For tho schulen sette to thee the lengthe of daies, and the yeeris of lijf, and pees.
Nʼihi na ha ga-eme ka ndụ gị dị ogologo ruo ọtụtụ afọ, wetakwara gị udo na ọganihu.
3 Merci and treuthe forsake thee not; bynde thou tho to thi throte, and write in the tablis of thin herte.
Ekwela ka ịhụnanya na ikwesi ntụkwasị obi hapụ gị, kekwasị ha nʼolu gị, deekwa ha nʼelu mbadamba nkume, bụ obi gị.
4 And thou schalt fynde grace, and good teching bifore God and men.
Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-enwe ihuọma na ezi aha nʼanya Chineke na nʼihu mmadụ.
5 Haue thou trist in the Lord, of al thin herte; and triste thou not to thi prudence.
Tụkwasị Onyenwe anyị obi gị niile, adaberekwala na nghọta gị.
6 In alle thi weies thenke thou on hym, and he schal dresse thi goyngis.
Nʼihe ọbụla ị na-eme, ka Chineke bute ụzọ, ọ ga-eduzi gị, meekwa ka okporoụzọ gị niile gazie.
7 Be thou not wijs anentis thi silf; drede thou God, and go awei fro yuel.
A bụla onye maara ihe nʼanya nke onwe gị. Tụọ Onyenwe anyị egwu, kpọọkwa ihe ọjọọ asị.
8 For whi helthe schal be in thi nawle, and moisting of thi boonys.
Nke a ga-eme ka i nwee ahụ ike gbaakwa ọkpụkpụ gị ume.
9 Onoure thou the Lord of thi catel, and of the beste of alle thi fruytis yyue thou to pore men;
Sọpụrụ Onyenwe anyị site nʼinye ya mkpụrụ mbụ nke akụnụba gị, na mkpụrụ mbụ nke ihe ubi gị.
10 and thi bernes schulen be fillid with abundaunce, and pressours schulen flowe with wiyn.
Mgbe ahụ ka ọ ga-eme ka ọba gị niile jubigakwa oke, ebe ịnara mmanya gị ga-ejupụta na mmanya ọhụrụ.
11 My sone, caste thou not awei the teching of the Lord; and faile thou not, whanne thou art chastisid of him.
Nwa m nwoke ajụla ịdọ aka na ntị nke Onyenwe anyị, ike agwụla gị ịnagide ịba mba ya.
12 For the Lord chastisith hym, whom he loueth; and as a fadir in the sone he plesith hym.
Nʼihi na ọ bụ ndị Onyenwe anyị hụrụ nʼanya ka ọ na-abara mba, dịka nna si abara nwa ya nke ihe ya na-atọ ya ụtọ mba.
13 Blessid is the man that fyndith wisdom, and which flowith with prudence.
Onye a gọziri agọzi ka mmadụ ahụ bụ onye chọtara amamihe, onye nwetara nghọta.
14 The geting therof is betere than the marchaundie of gold and of siluer; the fruytis therof ben the firste and clenneste.
Nʼihi na amamihe dị mma karịa ọlaọcha, ọ bakwara uru karịa ọlaedo.
15 It is preciousere than alle richessis; and alle thingis that ben desirid, moun not be comparisound to this.
Ọ dị oke ọnụahịa karịa ọla rubi, ọ dịghị ihe na-amasị gị e ji atụnyere ya.
16 Lengthe of daies is in the riythalf therof, and richessis and glorie ben in the lifthalf therof.
Ndụ ogologo dị nʼaka nri ya; nʼaka ekpe ya ka akụnụba na nsọpụrụ dịkwa.
17 The weies therof ben feire weies, and alle the pathis therof ben pesible.
Ụzọ ya bụ ụzọ dị mma bụrụkwa ụzọ udo.
18 It is a tre of lijf to hem that taken it; and he that holdith it, is blessid.
Amamihe bụ osisi nke ndụ nye ndị na-ejide ya aka, e, onye ahụ nke na-ejidesi ya aka ike ka ihe na-agara nke ọma.
19 The Lord foundide the erthe bi wisdom; he stablischide heuenes bi prudence.
Ọ bụ site nʼamamihe ka Onyenwe anyị ji tọọ ntọala ụwa; ọ bụkwa nghọta ya mere ka eluigwe dịrị ebe ọ dị.
20 The depthis of watris braken out bi his wisdom; and cloudis wexen togidere bi dewe.
Esitere nʼihe ọmụma ya kewaa ogbu mmiri niile, igwe ojii na-atụdakwa igirigi.
21 My sone, these thingis flete not awey fro thin iyen; kepe thou my lawe, and my counsel;
Nwa m nwoke, ekwela ka ihe abụọ ndị a site nʼihu gị wezuga onwe ha: amamihe na nghọta nke ime ihe dị mma nʼizuzu zuruoke,
22 and lijf schal be to thi soule, and grace `schal be to thi chekis.
nʼihi na ha na-enye gị ndụ ọhụrụ, ha bụkwaara gị ihe ịchọ mma amara nʼolu gị.
23 Thanne thou schalt go tristili in thi weie; and thi foot schal not snapere.
Ha na-eme ka ị na-aga ije nʼụzọ gị na-enweghị ihe egwu maọbụ ihe mkpọbi ụkwụ.
24 If thou schalt slepe, thou schalt not drede; thou schalt reste, and thi sleep schal be soft.
Mgbe ị ga-edina ala, ị gaghị atụ egwu, ị ga-edina ala ụra gị ga-adị ụtọ.
25 Drede thou not bi sudeyne feer, and the powers of wickid men fallynge in on thee.
Ị gaghị atụ egwu ihe mbibi mberede ọbụla maọbụ tụọ egwu ịla nʼiyi nke na-abịakwasị ndị ajọ omume.
26 For the Lord schal be at thi side; and he schal kepe thi foot, that thou be not takun.
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị bụ ebe ndabere gị, ọ ga-echebekwa gị.
27 Nil thou forbede to do wel him that mai; if thou maist, and do thou wel.
Ejigidele ihe ọma ị pụrụ imere onye ọzọ mgbe ọ dị gị nʼaka ime ya.
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.
A sịkwala onye agbataobi gị laa, bịaghachi azụ echi mgbe i nwere ike ime ya taa.
29 Ymagyne thou not yuel to thi freend, whanne he hath trist in thee.
Agbala izu ọjọọ megide onye agbataobi gị, nʼihi na o nwere ntụkwasị obi nʼebe ị nọ.
30 Stryue thou not ayens a man with out cause, whanne he doith noon yuel to thee.
Ebola mmadụ ebubo na-enweghị isi, mgbe onye ahụ na-emeghị gị ihe ọjọọ ọbụla.
31 Sue thou not an vniust man, sue thou not hise weies.
Ekwosola onye na-eme ihe ike ekworo maọbụ họrọ ụzọ ya ọbụla.
32 For ech disseyuer is abhomynacioun of the Lord; and his speking is with simple men.
Nʼihi na ndị dị otu a bụ ihe arụ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, ma ọ na-emeso ndị na-eme ihe ziri ezi mmeso ọma.
33 Nedinesse is sent of the Lord in the hous of a wickid man; but the dwelling places of iust men schulen be blessid.
Ọbụbụ ọnụ Onyenwe anyị dị nʼụlọ ndị na-eme ajọ omume, ma ọ na-agọzi ụlọ ndị ezi omume.
34 He schal scorne scorneris; and he schal yyue grace to mylde men.
Ndị mpako na-akwa emo ka ya onwe ya na-akwakwa emo, ma ndị dị umeala nʼobi ka ọ na-enye amara.
35 Wise men schulen haue glorie; enhaunsing of foolis is schenschipe.
Ndị maara ihe na-enweta nsọpụrụ, ma ndị nzuzu na-enweta ihere.
