Proverbs 30
1 The wordis of hym that gaderith, of the sone spuynge. The prophesie which a man spak, with whom God was, and which man was coumfortid bi God dwellyng with hym,
Ĩno nĩyo mĩario ya Aguri mũrũ wa Jake, na nĩ ndũmĩrĩri nditũ: Mũndũ ũcio eerire Ithieli, akĩĩra Ithieli na Ukali atĩrĩ:
2 and seide, Y am the moost fool of men; and the wisdom of men is not with me.
“Niĩ ndĩ mũndũ mũriitu gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ; ndirĩ na ũtaũku ta wa mũndũ.
3 Y lernede not wisdom; and Y knew not the kunnyng of hooli men.
Ndiĩrutĩte kũgĩa na ũũgĩ, o na kana ngamenya Ũrĩa Mũtheru.
4 Who stiede in to heuene, and cam doun? Who helde togidere the spirit in hise hondis? who bonde togidere watris as in a cloth? Who reiside alle the endis of erthe? What is name of hym? and what is the name of his sone, if thou knowist?
Nũũ wanambata igũrũ na agacooka agaikũrũka gũkũ thĩ? Nũũ wanacookereria rũhuho ngundi-inĩ ciake? Maaĩ namo-rĩ, nũũ ũrĩ wamoohania na nguo yake ya igũrũ? Nũũ wahaandire ituri ciothe cia thĩ? Etagwo atĩa, nake mũriũ etagwo atĩa? Akorwo nĩũũĩ-rĩ, ndũkĩnjĩĩre!
5 Ech word of God is a scheld set a fiere, to alle that hopen in hym.
“Kiugo gĩothe kĩa Ngai gĩtirĩ mahĩtia; nĩwe ngo ya arĩa moragĩra harĩ we.
6 Adde thou not ony thing to the wordis of hym, and thou be repreued, and be foundun a liere.
Ndũkanongerere ciugo ciake, ndakae gũkũrũithia wonekane ũrĩ wa maheeni.
7 I preiede thee twei thingis; denye not thou to me, bifor that Y die.
“Nĩngũkũhooya maũndũ meerĩ, Wee Jehova; ndũkanarege kũhe mo mbere ya ngue:
8 Make thou fer fro me vanyte and wordis of leesyng; yyue thou not to me beggery and richessis; yyue thou oneli necessaries to my lijflode;
Atĩrĩrĩ, njehereria maũndũ matarĩ ma ma, na ma maheeni, cindaihĩrĩrie mũno; ningĩ ndũkaahe ũthĩĩni kana ũtonga, no ũũheage irio cia o mũthenya.
9 lest perauenture Y be fillid, and be drawun to denye, and seie, Who is the Lord? and lest Y compellid bi nedynesse, stele, and forswere the name of my God.
Ndikaagĩe na indo nyingĩ mũno, ngũkaane, njũũrie atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova nũũ?’ Kana thĩĩne mũno, njiye, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩmenererie rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai wakwa.
10 Accuse thou not a seruaunt to his lord, lest perauenture he curse thee, and thou falle doun.
“Ndũgacambie ndungata kũrĩ mũnene wayo, ndĩgagĩkũrume, nawe ũrĩhio ũũru ũcio.
11 A generacioun that cursith his fadir, and that blessith not his modir.
“Nĩ kũrĩ andũ marumaga maithe mao o na matangĩrathima manyina mao;
12 A generacioun that semeth cleene to it silf, and netheles is not waischun fro hise filthis.
kũrĩ andũ arĩa meyonaga marĩ atheru maitho-inĩ mao, o rĩrĩa matathambĩtio gĩko kĩao;
13 A generacioun whose iyen ben hiy, and the iye liddis therof ben reisid in to hiy thingis.
nĩ arĩa marĩ maitho ma mwĩtĩĩo, o arĩa maroraga andũ manyiira;
14 A generacioun that hath swerdis for teeth, and etith with hise wank teeth; that it ete nedi men of erthe, and the porails of men.
nĩo arĩa magego mao mahaana ta hiũ cia njora, na ngambucu ciao ihaana ta tũhiũ twa gũtambuura arĩa athĩĩni, mahuke thĩ, na arĩa abatari, mathire andũ-inĩ.
15 The watir leche hath twei douytris, seiynge, Brynge, bringe. Thre thingis ben vnable to be fillid, and the fourthe, that seith neuere, It suffisith;
“Thambara ĩrĩ airĩtu eerĩ. Matitigithagĩria kuuga, ‘Tũhei! Tũhei!’ “Kũrĩ indo ithatũ itarĩ hĩndĩ ihũũnaga, o na nĩ inya itarĩ hĩndĩ ingiuga, ‘Nĩndaigania!’
16 helle, and the mouth of the wombe, and the erthe which is neuere fillid with water; but fier seith neuere, It suffisith. (Sheol h7585)
Nacio nĩ mbĩrĩra, na nda thaata, na thĩ tondũ ndĩrĩ hĩndĩ ĩiganagia maaĩ, na mwaki tondũ ndũrĩ hĩndĩ uugaga, ‘Nĩndaigania!’ (Sheol h7585)
17 Crowis of the stronde picke out thilke iye, that scorneth the fadir, and that dispisith the child beryng of his modir; and the briddis of an egle ete that iye.
“Riitho rĩa mũndũ ũrĩa ũnyũrũragia ithe, na akarurũka kũiguaga nyina, rĩgaakũũrwo nĩ mahuru ma kĩanda-inĩ, na rĩkaarĩĩo nĩ nderi.
18 Thre thingis ben hard to me, and outirli Y knowe not the fourthe thing;
“Kũrĩ maũndũ matatũ mangegagia mũno makĩria, o na nĩ mana marĩa niĩ itakuũkagĩrwo nĩmo:
19 the weye of an egle in heuene, the weie of a serpent on a stoon, the weie of a schip in the myddil of the see, and the weie of a man in yong wexynge age.
namo nĩ mũthiĩre wa nderi rĩera-inĩ, na mũthiĩre wa nyoka rwaro-inĩ rwa ihiga, na mũthiĩre wa marikabu ĩrĩ iria-inĩ gatagatĩ, na mũthiĩre wa mũndũ makĩendana na mũirĩtu.
20 Siche is the weie of a womman auowtresse, which etith, and wipith hir mouth, and seith, Y wrouyte not yuel.
“Ũyũ nĩguo mũthiĩre wa mũndũ-wa-nja mũtharia: Arĩĩaga na akehuura mĩromo, akoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndirĩ ũndũ mũũru njĩkĩte.’
21 The erthe is moued bi thre thingis, and the fourthe thing, which it may not susteyne;
“Kũrĩ maũndũ matatũ matũmaga thĩ ĩthingithe, o na nĩ mana ĩtangĩĩtiiria:
22 bi a seruaunt, whanne he regneth; bi a fool, whanne he is fillid with mete;
namo nĩ ndungata ĩtuĩkĩte mũthamaki, na mũndũ mũkĩĩgu ahũũnĩte irio,
23 bi an hateful womman, whanne sche is takun in matrymonye; and bi an handmaide, whanne sche is eir of hir ladi.
na mũndũ-wa-nja ũtangĩendeka ahikĩte, na ndungata ya mũirĩtu ĩtuĩkĩte mũtumia wa mũthuuri wa mũmĩathi.
24 Foure ben the leeste thingis of erthe, and tho ben wisere than wise men;
“Nĩ kũrĩ nyamũ inya nini gũkũ thĩ, no nĩ njũgĩ mũno:
25 amtis, a feble puple, that maken redi mete in heruest to hem silf;
Thigiriri-rĩ, nĩ ciũmbe itarĩ hinya, no nĩciĩigagĩra mũthiithũ wa irio hĩndĩ ya riũa;
26 a hare, a puple vnmyyti, that settith his bed in a stoon;
ikami nĩ ciũmbe itarĩ ũhoti, no nĩciĩthondekagĩra ciikaro ciacio ndwaro-inĩ cia mahiga;
27 a locust hath no kyng, and al goith out bi cumpanyes; an euete enforsith with hondis,
ngigĩ itirĩ mũthamaki wacio, no nĩitwaranaga hamwe irĩ mbũtũ;
28 and dwellith in the housis of kingis.
njagathi no inyiitwo na rũhĩ, no ĩtũũraga thĩinĩ wa nyũmba cia athamaki.
29 Thre thingis ben, that goon wel, and the fourthe thing, that goith richeli.
“Kũrĩ indo ithatũ irĩ mũkinyũkĩrie mũgaacĩru, o na nĩ inya ngaacĩru rĩrĩa igũthiĩ:
30 A lioun, strongeste of beestis, schal not drede at the meetyng of ony man;
nĩ mũrũũthi, arĩ guo ũrĩ hinya mũno gatagatĩ ka nyamũ iria ingĩ ciothe, na ndũngĩeherera nyamũ ĩrĩkũ kana ĩrĩkũ njĩra;
31 a cok gird the leendis, and a ram, and noon is that schal ayenstonde him.
nĩ njamba ya ngũkũ ĩrĩa ĩkinyũkagia na nguthi, na thenge, na mũthamaki mũthiũrũrũkĩrie nĩ mbũtũ ciake cia ita.
32 He that apperith a fool, aftir that he is reisid an hiy; for if he hadde vndurstonde, he hadde sett hond on his mouth.
“Angĩkorwo nĩwĩtuĩte mũndũ mũkĩĩgu, na ũgetũũgĩria, kana ũkorwo nĩũthugundĩte gwĩka ũũru-rĩ, humbĩra kanua gaku na rũhĩ!
33 Forsothe he that thristith strongli teetis, to drawe out mylk, thristith out botere; and he that smytith greetli, drawith out blood; and he that stirith iris, bringith forth discordis.
Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa iria rĩthũcagwo, rĩkoima thiagĩ, na o ta ũrĩa iniũrũ rĩthioragwo rĩkoira thakame-rĩ, ũguo noguo gũthogotha marakara kũrehaga ngũĩ.”
