Mani'zanti Mofo Nanekee 1
1 Ama avontafera knare nomanizamofo ke Israeli vahe'mokizmi kini ne' Solomoni, Deviti nemofo krente'ne.
These are the proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel,
2 Ama knare nomanizamofo ke'mo'a, knare antahi'za neramino, tavumro ante ke nerasmino, taza hinketa oku'ama me'nea kea keta antahita hugahune.
for gaining wisdom and discipline, for comprehending words of insight,
3 Knare antahintahi neramino, tazeri fatgo nehanigeta, fatgo avu'ava nehuta, fatgo huta refko nehuta, maka vahe'mofona mago avamente knare avu'avara huzmantegahune.
and for receiving instruction in wise living and in righteousness, justice, and equity.
4 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.
To impart prudence to the simple and knowledge and discretion to the young,
5 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.
let the wise listen and gain instruction, and the discerning acquire wise counsel
6 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.
by understanding the proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise.
7 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.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.
8 Mofavre'nimoke, negafa'ma kavumro kema hania kea amage nentenka, negrerama rempima hugamisia kea ha'ontagio.
Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction, and do not forsake the teaching of your mother.
9 Ana kavumro kemo'a, avasase zanu anunte fetori anteankna nehuno, anankempi pasesu nofi anteankna hugantegahie.
For they are a garland of grace on your head and a pendant around your neck.
10 Mofavre'nimoke, kumi vahe'mo'za kefoza huogu kavazuma hanazana, ana kefozana osutfa huo.
My son, if sinners entice you, do not yield to them.
11 Tagrane egeta frakineta hazenkezmi omne vaheku ome zmahamneno hnagenka, ovutfa huo.
If they say, “Come along, let us lie in wait for blood, let us ambush the innocent without cause,
12 Fri vahe kumamo'ma vahe'ma zamasgahu nevaziankna huta, zamasimuma eri'za mani'naza vahera zamahe frisune. (Sheol h7585)
let us swallow them alive like Sheol, and whole like those descending into the Pit. (Sheol h7585)
13 Mika zago'amo mareri zantamima zamaheta hanaresuna zantamina refko huta nontifi eri antevi'neteta,
We will find all manner of precious goods; we will fill our houses with plunder.
14 musufama erisuna zagoa refko hugamigahunanki, tagrane enoma hanagenka,
Throw in your lot with us; let us all share one purse”—
15 mofavre'nimoke, zamagranena ovutfa huo, zamagrama vanarega ovuo.
my son, do not walk the road with them or set foot upon their path.
16 Na'ankure ame hu'za kumira nehu'za, vahera zamahe'za korana eri neragize.
For their feet run to evil, and they are swift to shed blood.
17 Namamo'ma negesigenka krifu anaginte'sanana, ana namamo'a krifufina ohenigeno, krifumo'a amnezankna hugahie.
How futile it is to spread the net where any bird can see it!
18 Anahu kna hu'za, vahe'mo'za ruvahe zamahe'naku hazanagi, zamagra'a zamahe nefrize.
But they lie in wait for their own blood; they ambush their own lives.
19 E'inahu kanteti'ma musufama fenoma erizamo'a, kahe frigahie.
Such is the fate of all who are greedy, whose unjust gain takes the lives of its possessors.
20 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.
Wisdom calls out in the street, she lifts her voice in the square;
21 Ana a'mo'a tusi kereso nehaza kamofo atuparegati kezatino, rankumapi ufre kafante mani'neno kea nehie.
in the main concourse she cries aloud, at the city gates she makes her speech:
22 Antahiza omane vahe'motma nama'a zupa musena hutma antahizantmi omane vahera manigahaze? Kiza zokago kema knare antahizanku'ma nehzazana, taganetma omanigahafi?
“How long, O simple ones, will you love your simple ways? How long will scoffers delight in their scorn and fools hate knowledge?
23 Nagrama i'oma hugantoa kema amage'ma antesanke'na, nagu'a neramina, knare antahi'zani'a rempi huramigahue.
If you had repented at my rebuke, then surely I would have poured out my spirit on you; I would have made my words known to you.
24 Hianagi kema nehugenka antahi nonaminka, kagrite etragote'za nehugenka antahi nonamine.
Because you refused my call, and no one took my outstretched hand,
25 Kavumro'ma negantogenka, keni'a nontahinka, osuo huazama nehanku,
because you neglected all my counsel, and wanted none of my correction,
26 ana nona'a kagrite'ma esia hazenkegura, kagiza regahue. Tusi'a hazenke zamo kazeri kagateresige'na, Nagra kagiza regahue.
in turn I will mock your calamity; I will sneer when terror strikes you,
27 Zahoko'mo hiaza huno hazenke zamo'ma tamazeri agaterenkeno, hankro zaho'mo hiaza huno tinko'mo refitege, hazenke'zamo ene kore'zamo tmagritera egahie.
when your dread comes like a storm, and your destruction like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish overwhelm you.
28 Ana hanige'za zamagra zamazama hanugura kezatigahazanagi, nagra kenona huozamigahue. Zamagra nagrikura hakresnazanagi, onagegahaze.
Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; they will earnestly seek me, but will not find me.
29 Na'ankure zamagra antahi'zama erizankura zamesra hunente'za, Ra Anumzamofona kore hunte zamagesa ontahi'naze.
For they hated knowledge and chose not to fear the LORD.
30 Nagrama zamavumro antoankea erinetre'za, zamazeri fatgo huankea amage onte'naze.
They accepted none of my counsel; they despised all my reproof.
31 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.
So they will eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
32 Antahintahizmi omane vahe'mokizmia, neginagi zamavu'zmavamo zamahe nefrinkeno, knare hu'none hu'zama hanaza zamo, zamahe frigahie.
For the waywardness of the simple will slay them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them.
33 Hianagi aza'o nagri kema antahisimo'a, hazenke e'ori knare huno nemanino, havizankura korora osu mani fru huno manigahie.
But whoever listens to me will dwell in safety, secure from the fear of evil.”
