Mani'zanti Mofo Nanekee 24
1 Havi vahe'mo'ma hania avu'ava zankura kegasane huge, ana vahe'enema tragotenka mani'zankura, kagesa ontahitfa huo.
Be thou not envious of bad men, and do not long to be with them.
2 Na'ankure antahiza zamifina vahe'ma hazenke'zami antahi'zamo avitegeno, zamagipinti'ma atineramia ke'mo'a, hazenke erinte kege nehaze.
For their heart meditateth destruction, and of mischief do their lips speak.
3 Knare antahi'zanteti nona neginka, ama' antahi'zanteti eri hanavetigahane.
Through wisdom is a house built; and through understanding is it firmly established;
4 Antahi'zama eri'nenanteti, knare fenozane zago'amo'ma mareri zantamina nonka'afina erinte avitegahane.
And through knowledge are chambers filled with all manner of precious and pleasant wealth.
5 Ama' antahi'zane vahe'mo'za rama'a hanave eri'zageno, antahi'zama eri vahe'mo'za mago'ane hanavea e'nerize.
A wise man is [always] in power; and a man of knowledge fortifieth [his] strength.
6 Ha'ma hu'zante'ma ama' antahi'zama hunka e'orinesunka, hatera ovuo. Na'ankure rama'a vahe'mo'zama hate'ma vanana kavumro'ma kantesagenka, hara azeri agateregahane.
For by wise counsel canst thou conduct thy war; and there is help in a multitude of counsellors.
7 Knare antahi'zamo'a mesga hu'neanki'za, neginagi vahe'mo'za erigara osu'nazanki'za, rankumamofo kafante'ma kva vahe'mo'zama atruma hu'zama kema hanafina, mago kea osugahie.
Wisdom is too high for a fool: in the gate can he not open his mouth.
8 Kefo avu'ava'zama hu antahi'zama retro'ma nehaza vahe'mokizmigura, hazenke vahere hu'za nehaze.
Him that deviseth to do evil, men call a master of wicked devices.
9 Neginagi avu'ava'ma hu'zama retro'ma hanazana, kumi nehaze. Vahe'ma huhavizama hunezmantea vahe'mofona, vahe'mo'za zamavesra hu'za zamagote'nentaze.
The counsel of folly is sin; and an abomination to men is the scorner.
10 Knazampima unefrenka hanavema otisankeno'a, hanaveka'a omanegosie.
If thou despond on the day of distress, thy strength is small.
11 Havigema hu'za zamahe frinaku'ma hanaza vahera, zamaza huta zamavareho. Hagi zamahe frinaku hanaza vahera, zamaza huta zamavareho.
Deliver those that are taken unto death, and those that are moved away to the slaughter hold back.
12 Antahi'nesunka ontahi'noe hunka havigea osuo. Na'ankure Anumzamo'a kagu'a kageno antahino nehuno, kagu'a kegava hunegantea ne'mo'a, kagu'a kageno antahino osugahie hunka osuo. Miko vahe'mokizmia zamagrama hu'nesaza zamavu'zmavate anteno mizana zamamigahie.
If thou shouldst say, Behold, we know not this man: lo, he that weigheth hearts will truly regard it, and he that keepeth thy soul will surely know it; and he will give a recompense to man according to his doing.
13 Mofavre'nimoka tume rima'a no, na'ankure knare hu'neankino, kagitera haga hugahie.
Eat honey, my son, because it is good; and the fine honey, which is sweet to thy palate:
14 E'i anahukna huno, ama' antahi'zamo'a kagu'afina haga hugahie. Hagi hakenkama erifore'ma hanankeno'a, henkama erigahue hunka amuha'ma nehana zamo'a, amnezanknara osugahie.
So obtain the knowledge of wisdom for thy soul: when thou hast found her, then shall there be a [happy] future, and thy hope shall not be cut off.
15 Kefo vahe'moka fatgo vahe'mo'zama nemaniza nontera, zamazeri haviza hunakura kva hunka omanio. Hagi fatgo vahe'mo'za nemaniza kumara eri havizana osuo.
Lie not in wait, O wicked man! against the dwelling of the righteous; waste not his resting-place;
16 Na'ankure fatgo vahe'mo'za, 7ni'a zupa evuramiga hazanagi, ete otigahaze. Hianagi kefo avu'ava'ma nehaza vahetema mago hazenkema esuno'a, eme zamazeri haviza hugahie.
For though the righteous were to fall seven times, he will rise up again; but the wicked shall stumble into misfortune.
17 Ha'ma renegantesaza vahe'ma evuramisagenka, musena osuo. Hagi tanafa'ma hanaza zankura, musena osuo.
At the fall of thy enemy do not rejoice; and at his stumbling let not thy heart be glad:
18 Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a ana'ma hanankeno'a, negageno musena hunoganteno arimpahe zama'a anamofontetira eritregahie.
Lest the Lord see it and it be displeasing in his eyes, and he turn away from him his wrath.
19 Kefo vahe'mofo avu'avakura korera hunka antahintahi hakarea nosunka, ana havi zamavu zamavakura kegasanea osuo.
Fret not thyself because of evil-doers, neither be thou envious of the wicked;
20 Na'ankure kefo zamavu'zava'ene vahe'mokizmia, henkama knare huzama mani'saza mani'zana omanesige'za, lamu tavi'mo asu hiankna hugahaze.
For there will be no [happy] future for the bad man: the lamp of the wicked will be quenched.
21 Mofavre'nimoka, Ra Anumzamofone kinimofonena koro huneznantenka zanagorga nemaninka, ha'ma reznantesaza vahe'enena magopina tragoteta omaniho.
My son, fear the Lord and the king: with those that are desirous to change do not mingle thyself;
22 Na'ankure e'inahu vahetera, tusi'a hazenke zamo ame huno egahie. Ra Anumzamo'ene Kini ne'mo enema zamisaza knazana, mago'mo'e huno ontahitfa hugahie.
For suddenly will their calamity arise; and who knoweth the ruin of both of them!
23 Ama' antahi'zama eri'naza vahe'mo'za amanahu ke hugahaze. Nanekema trate refkoma hanuza magomofonkukera osugahaze.
These things also are for the wise. To have respect of persons in judgment is not good.
24 Iza'o kefozama hu'nesia neku'ma, kefozana osune huno'ma hanige'za, rama'a vahe'mo'za anagema hania nekura, huhaviza hunentesageno, kokankoka vahe'mo'za antahi haviza huntegahaze.
Him that saith unto the wicked, Thou art righteous, will the people denounce, him will nations hold accursed;
25 Hu'neanagi iza'zo kefoza hu'nesia neku'ma, kefoza hu'ne hu'zama huama'ma hanamo'za, rama'a asomu eri'za rama'aza antegahaze.
But to those that punish delight shall be given, and upon them shall come the blessing of the good.
26 Tamagema huno ke nonama hu'zamo'a, e'i knare kvate knampaka'amo kanukino kantako huganteankna hugahie.
Men will kiss the lips of him that giveth a proper answer.
27 Kotazana hozama antesanaza retro hunka hoza antetenka, henka nonka'a kigahane.
Prepare without thy work, and make it fit in the field for thyself: and afterward build thy house.
28 Tava'onka'are'ma nemanisimofoma trate'ma kegagama hunentezama, kenana zanku nehazafi huama huo hanagenka, havigea hunka hazenkema osu'nesia zankura, hazenke hu'ne huonto.
Be not without cause a witness against thy neighbor; for wouldst thou beguile with thy lips?
29 Hagi zamagrama hunantesaza zana nona hu'na huzamantegahue hunka osuge, mago'mo'ma havizama hugantesiana, nona hu'na havizana huntegahue hunka osuo.
Say not, As he hath done to me so will I do to him: I will recompense every man according to his doing.
30 Nagra feru ne'mofo hozafine antahintahi'a omane ne'mofo waini hozafi agatere'na nevu'na koana,
By the field of a slothful man I once passed along, and by the vineyard of a man void of sense:
31 ave've trazamo'ene hozafi inozamo hageno ana hoza refitegeno, have keginama hugagi'nea zamo'a fraguvazirami'ne.
And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, nettles had covered its surface, and its stone-wall was broken down.
32 Ana zama nege'na nagesama nentahugeno'a, mago'aza rempi hunami'ne.
And when I had indeed beheld [this] I took it to my heart: I saw it, and received a warning.
33 Osi'agna nagra navura masehimarege, osi'agna masege, osi'agna nazana anamagi'na manisga huge'ma hanugeno'a,
“A little [more] sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands in lying down;”
34 musufa vahe'mo'za mika fenozmi kumzafa sage'za, mika zazmimo'a ame huno vagaresige'za, zamunte omane vahe maniankna hugahaze.
But then will thy poverty come like a rover; and thy wants as a man armed with a shield.
