< Proverbs 1 >

1 Proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:
Ama avontafera knare nomanizamofo ke Israeli vahe'mokizmi kini ne' Solomoni, Deviti nemofo krente'ne.
2 For knowing wisdom and instruction, For understanding sayings of intelligence,
Ama knare nomanizamofo ke'mo'a, knare antahi'za neramino, tavumro ante ke nerasmino, taza hinketa oku'ama me'nea kea keta antahita hugahune.
3 For receiving the instruction of wisdom, Righteousness, judgment, and uprightness,
Knare antahintahi neramino, tazeri fatgo nehanigeta, fatgo avu'ava nehuta, fatgo huta refko nehuta, maka vahe'mofona mago avamente knare avu'avara huzmantegahune.
4 For giving to simple ones — prudence, To a youth — knowledge and discretion.
Hagi ama ana nanekemo'a, antahi'zama'a omane'nesia vahera knare antahintahi nezamino, ne'mofara antahiza nezaminke'za knare hu'za maka zana refko hugahaze.
5 (The wise doth hear and increaseth learning, And the intelligent doth obtain counsels.)
Knare antahintahima eri'nesimo'a, ama nanekea nentahinkeno rempi hunemina, mago'ane ama' antahi'zana e'nerinkeno, antahi ama'ma hania ne'mo'a, avumro kea erigahie.
6 For understanding a proverb and its sweetness, Words of the wise and their acute sayings.
Ama nanekemo'a zamaza hina, knare antahintahima eri kene, avame kea antahi ama' nehuta, antahi'zane vahe'mo'zama hu'naza kene, ruzahu ruzahu fraki kea erigahaze.
7 Fear of Jehovah [is] a beginning of knowledge, Wisdom and instruction fools have despised!
Anumzamofonku kore hunteno agorga'a manizana, antahi'zama eri'zamofo agafa'a me'ne. Hu'neanagi neginagi vahe'mo'za knare antahi'zane avumro kegura zamagena humigahaze.
8 Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,
Mofavre'nimoke, negafa'ma kavumro kema hania kea amage nentenka, negrerama rempima hugamisia kea ha'ontagio.
9 For a graceful wreath [are] they to thy head, And chains to thy neck.
Ana kavumro kemo'a, avasase zanu anunte fetori anteankna nehuno, anankempi pasesu nofi anteankna hugantegahie.
10 My son, if sinners entice thee be not willing.
Mofavre'nimoke, kumi vahe'mo'za kefoza huogu kavazuma hanazana, ana kefozana osutfa huo.
11 If they say, 'Come with us, we lay wait for blood, We watch secretly for the innocent without cause,
Tagrane egeta frakineta hazenkezmi omne vaheku ome zmahamneno hnagenka, ovutfa huo.
12 We swallow them as Sheol — alive, And whole — as those going down [to] the pit, (Sheol h7585)
Fri vahe kumamo'ma vahe'ma zamasgahu nevaziankna huta, zamasimuma eri'za mani'naza vahera zamahe frisune. (Sheol h7585)
13 Every precious substance we find, We fill our houses [with] spoil,
Mika zago'amo mareri zantamima zamaheta hanaresuna zantamina refko huta nontifi eri antevi'neteta,
14 Thy lot thou dost cast among us, One purse is — to all of us.'
musufama erisuna zagoa refko hugamigahunanki, tagrane enoma hanagenka,
15 My son! go not in the way with them, Withhold thy foot from their path,
mofavre'nimoke, zamagranena ovutfa huo, zamagrama vanarega ovuo.
16 For their feet to evil do run, And they haste to shed blood.
Na'ankure ame hu'za kumira nehu'za, vahera zamahe'za korana eri neragize.
17 Surely in vain is the net spread out before the eyes of any bird.
Namamo'ma negesigenka krifu anaginte'sanana, ana namamo'a krifufina ohenigeno, krifumo'a amnezankna hugahie.
18 And they for their own blood lay wait, They watch secretly for their own lives.
Anahu kna hu'za, vahe'mo'za ruvahe zamahe'naku hazanagi, zamagra'a zamahe nefrize.
19 So [are] the paths of every gainer of dishonest gain, The life of its owners it taketh.
E'inahu kanteti'ma musufama fenoma erizamo'a, kahe frigahie.
20 Wisdom in an out-place crieth aloud, In broad places she giveth forth her voice,
Knare antahintahizamo'a mago a'kna hu'neankino, kama vu'za e'za nehazafi oti'neno kezanetino, vahe atru hu'za nemanizafi ranke huno kezatino kea nehie.
21 At the head of the multitudes she calleth, In the openings of the gates, In the city her sayings she saith:
Ana a'mo'a tusi kereso nehaza kamofo atuparegati kezatino, rankumapi ufre kafante mani'neno kea nehie.
22 'Till when, ye simple, do ye love simplicity? And have scorners their scorning desired? And do fools hate knowledge?
Antahiza omane vahe'motma nama'a zupa musena hutma antahizantmi omane vahera manigahaze? Kiza zokago kema knare antahizanku'ma nehzazana, taganetma omanigahafi?
23 Turn back at my reproof, lo, I pour forth to you my spirit, I make known my words with you.
Nagrama i'oma hugantoa kema amage'ma antesanke'na, nagu'a neramina, knare antahi'zani'a rempi huramigahue.
24 Because I have called, and ye refuse, I stretched out my hand, and none is attending,
Hianagi kema nehugenka antahi nonaminka, kagrite etragote'za nehugenka antahi nonamine.
25 And ye slight all my counsel, And my reproof ye have not desired.
Kavumro'ma negantogenka, keni'a nontahinka, osuo huazama nehanku,
26 I also in your calamity do laugh, I deride when your fear cometh,
ana nona'a kagrite'ma esia hazenkegura, kagiza regahue. Tusi'a hazenke zamo kazeri kagateresige'na, Nagra kagiza regahue.
27 When your fear cometh as destruction, And your calamity as a hurricane doth come, When on you come adversity and distress.
Zahoko'mo hiaza huno hazenke zamo'ma tamazeri agaterenkeno, hankro zaho'mo hiaza huno tinko'mo refitege, hazenke'zamo ene kore'zamo tmagritera egahie.
28 Then they call me, and I do not answer, They seek me earnestly, and find me not.
Ana hanige'za zamagra zamazama hanugura kezatigahazanagi, nagra kenona huozamigahue. Zamagra nagrikura hakresnazanagi, onagegahaze.
29 Because that they have hated knowledge, And the fear of Jehovah have not chosen.
Na'ankure zamagra antahi'zama erizankura zamesra hunente'za, Ra Anumzamofona kore hunte zamagesa ontahi'naze.
30 They have not consented to my counsel, They have despised all my reproof,
Nagrama zamavumro antoankea erinetre'za, zamazeri fatgo huankea amage onte'naze.
31 And they eat of the fruit of their way, And from their own counsels they are filled.
E'ina hu'negu zamagrama hu'nesaza zamuzmamofona raga'a nesageno, oku'ma hu'naku retroma hu'nesaza zamavu'zmavamofo nona'a havi miza erigahaze.
32 For the turning of the simple slayeth them, And the security of the foolish destroyeth them.
Antahintahizmi omane vahe'mokizmia, neginagi zamavu'zmavamo zamahe nefrinkeno, knare hu'none hu'zama hanaza zamo, zamahe frigahie.
33 And whoso is hearkening to me dwelleth confidently, And [is] quiet from fear of evil!'
Hianagi aza'o nagri kema antahisimo'a, hazenke e'ori knare huno nemanino, havizankura korora osu mani fru huno manigahie.
