Proverbs 24
1 Be not envious of evil men, And desire not to be with them.
Wadela: i hamobe dunu amo mae mudale ba: ma! Amola amo dunu amo bisili mae dogolegema.
2 For destruction doth their heart meditate, And perverseness do their lips speak.
Ilia asigi dawa: su ganodini da mosolamusa: fawane dawa: lala. Amola eso huluane ilia lafidili esega dunu eno amo se nabima: ne sia: daha.
3 By wisdom is a house builded, And by understanding it establisheth itself.
Sosogo fi ilia hou noga: le dadawa: le fifilasu da igi bai magufu fa: i noga: i agoai gala.
4 And by knowledge the inner parts are filled, [With] all precious and pleasant wealth.
Diasu da amo da: iya gagui amo ea sesei huluane da fedege agoane, dawa: su noga: idafa amola liligi ida: iwane gala, amoga nabai gala.
5 Mighty [is] the wise in strength, And a man of knowledge is strengthening power,
Noga: le dadawa: su hou da da: i hodo gasa hou baligisa.
6 For by plans thou makest for thyself war, And deliverance [is] in a multitude of counsellors.
Amasea, gegena masunusa: gala, hidadea iligelalu masa. Amola fada: i sia: noga: le ha: ini nabalu ahoasea, dilia da ha lai ilima osa: la heda: mu agoai ba: mu.
7 Wisdom [is] high for a fool, In the gate he openeth not his mouth.
Gagaoui dunu da dadawa: su sia: fada: ne hame dawa: Dawa: su dunu da fada: i sia: bagade sia: dasea, gagaoui dunu da amo sia: fidili mae sia: ne, ouiya: le esala.
8 Whoso is devising to do evil, Him they call a master of wicked thoughts.
Di da eso huluane wadela: i hou hamomusa: ilegesea, dunu eno ilia da di da mosolasu hamosu dunu amane dawa: mu.
9 The thought of folly [is] sin, And an abomination to man [is] a scorner.
Gagaoui dunu da wadela: i ilegemusa: fawane dawa: lala. Dunu mogili da dunu eno ilima gasa fili higasu hou hamosa. Dunu huluane da amaiwane dunuma higasa.
10 Thou hast shewed thyself weak in a day of adversity, Straitened is thy power,
Se nabasu bagade doaga: sea, di da gasa hame agoane hamosea, gogayeidafa dunu agoane ba: mu.
11 If [from] delivering those taken to death, And those slipping to the slaughter — thou keepest back.
Fofada: su dunu da wadela: i hame hamosu dunu amo giadofale medole legemusa: dawa: sea, defea, mae ha: aligima. Amo dunu hedolo gaga: ma.
12 When thou sayest, 'Lo, we knew not this.' Is not the Ponderer of hearts He who understandeth? And the Keeper of thy soul He who knoweth? And He hath rendered to man according to his work.
Amo hou da dia liligi hame agoane mae sia: ma. Bai Gode da dia hou dawa: , amola dia hamobe E da adoba: lala. Amola E da dia hamoi defele dima bidi imunu.
13 Eat my son, honey that [is] good, And the honeycomb — sweet to thy palate.
Nagofe! Di agime hano amo moma. Amo da dia gona: suga leba: le ba: sea, hedaiwane ba: sa.
14 So [is] the knowledge of wisdom to thy soul, If thou hast found that there is a posterity And thy hope is not cut off.
Amo defele, molole dawa: su sia: da dia da: i hodo amola asigi dawa: su obenasa. Di da molole dawa: su lasea, hahawane esalumu.
15 Lay not wait, O wicked one, At the habitation of the righteous. Do not spoil his resting-place.
Wadela: le hamosu dunu da moloidafa dunu amo ea liligi amola ea diasu wamolamusa: ilegelala. Be di da agoane mae ilegema.
16 For seven [times] doth the righteous fall and rise, And the wicked stumble in evil.
Moloidafa dunu da dafasea, e da hedolo bu sinidigisa. Be se nabasu da wadela: i hamosu dunu ilima doaga: sea, e da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.
17 In the falling of thine enemy rejoice not, And in his stumbling let not thy heart be joyful,
Se nabasu bagade da dia ha lai dunuma doaga: sea, mae nodoma. E da dafasea, hahawane mae ba: ma.
18 Lest Jehovah see, and [it be] evil in His eyes, And He hath turned from off him His anger.
Dia ha lai dunu da se nababeba: le, di da nodosea, Hina Gode da amo hou higa: i hodosa. Amasea, e da dia ha lai ema se iasu hame ima: bela: ?
19 Fret not thyself at evil doers, Be not envious at the wicked,
Wadela: le hamosu dunu ilia hamobeba: le, mae da: i dioma. Amola, ilia wadela: i hou hamobeba: le, liligi bagade lasea, mae mudama.
20 For there is not a posterity to the evil, The lamp of the wicked is extinguished.
Bai ilia da hame fifi ahoanumu. Fa: no misunu hahawane hou da ilima hame doaga: mu.
21 Fear Jehovah, my son, and the king, With changers mix not up thyself,
Nagofe! Hina Godema beda: ne nodoma. Amola osobo bagade hina bagade amoma nabasu hou hamoma. Nowa dunu da Hina Gode o hina bagade ilima odoga: sea, ilima mae gilisima.
22 For suddenly doth their calamity rise, And the ruin of them both — who knoweth!
Agoane odoga: su dunu ilia da hedolodafa dafasu dawa: Gode amola osobo bagade hina bagade dunu da ilima se imunusa: dawa:
23 These also are for the wise: — To discern faces in judgment is not good.
Molole dawa: su dunu da amo eno sia: su sia: i. ‘Fofada: su dunu da dunu aduna elama fofa: da: sea, e da dunu afamagamu da defea hame.’
24 Whoso is saying to the wicked, 'Thou [art] righteous,' Peoples execrate him — nations abhor him.
E da wadela: le hamosu dunu da moloidafa sia: sea, dunu huluane da e aligima: ne gagabumu amola e higamu.
25 And to those reproving it is pleasant, And on them cometh a good blessing.
Be fofada: su dunu da wadela: le hamosu dunu ilima se iasea, e da hahawane ba: mu amola eno dunu da ema nodomu.
26 Lips he kisseth who is returning straightforward words.
Nowa dunu da moloidafa adole iasea, amo da eno dunuma dogeleidafa hou agoai.
27 Prepare in an out-place thy work, And make it ready in the field — go afterwards, Then thou hast built thy house.
Dia diasu gaguli, fifi lamusa: dawa: sea, hidadea ifa abalegele, ha: i manu heda: sea, dia manu defele ba: sea, dia diasu gaguli, fifi laloma.
28 Be not a witness for nought against thy neighbour, Or thou hast enticed with thy lips.
Dia da udigili eno dunuma mae fofada: ma. Amola bai hamedei hou amola ema ogogolewane mae fofada: ma.
29 Say not, 'As he did to me, so I do to him, I render to each according to his work.'
Amola di amane mae sia: ma, “Na da e nama hamoi defele ema hamomu. Na da dabemu,” amane mae sia: ma.
30 Near the field of a slothful man I passed by, And near the vineyard of a man lacking heart.
Na da hihi dabuli gagaoui dunu amo ea waini efe sagai amodili asi.
31 And lo, it hath gone up — all of it — thorns! Covered its face have nettles, And its stone wall hath been broken down.
Amo ganodini, aya: gaga: nomei amola gisi heda: i bagade bai. Amola igiga gagoi amo da mugululi sa: i dagoi ba: i.
32 And I see — I — I do set my heart, I have seen — I have received instruction,
Amo na da ba: lalu, amola na da bu dawa: i, amola amo ea bai dawa: i dagoi.
33 A little sleep — a little slumber — A little folding of the hands to lie down.
Bai di helefili golamu da defea. Dia lobo sogoba: digili fa: bihadi golama.
34 And thy poverty hath come [as] a traveller, And thy want as an armed man!
Be di da golai dialoba, wamolasu dunu da doagala: be defele, hame gagui hou da dima doaga: mu.
