Mani'zanti Mofo Nanekee 30
1 Ama'na nanekea, Jake nemofo, Aguri Itielintegane Ukalintega huama huno kre zanami'nea naneke.
The words of Agur son of Jakeh—the utterance: This man declared to Ithiel, to Ithiel and Ucal:
2 Tamage nagra mago'a vahe'mo'zama nehaza havizana agatere'na havizantfa nehu'na, vahe'mo'zama antahi ama'ma nehazaza hu'na antahiamara nosue.
Surely I am more like an animal than any human and I do not have the understanding of a human being.
3 Nagra knare antahi'zana rempi hu'na e'ori'na, Anumzamo'ma Ruotage hu'nemofoma keno antahino'ma hu antahi'zana e'ori'noe.
I have not learned wisdom, nor do I have knowledge of the Holy One.
4 Iza monafinka mareriteno ete erami'ne? Iza zahora aza agu'safina azeri'ne? Iza tavarave'afina tina anakino ante'ne? Iza mopa ometre emetretera mika'zana antegeno fore huno me'ne? Agri agi'a iza'e, nemofo agi'a iza'e? Antahinesunka nasamio!
Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Who has gathered up the wind in the hollow of his hands? Who has gathered up the waters in a cloak? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is the name of his son? Surely you know!
5 Anumzamofo kema maka ke'za antahi'zama hu'nazana tamage ke me'ne. Agra mika zamagu vazinogu'ma Agrite'ma neaza vahe'mokizmia hankogna hu'neno zamagu nevazie.
Every word of God is tested; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
6 Anumzamofo nanekerera kagra'a kagesafintira amerasenka ruokamaro, ru kazeri korino havige vahe maninane huno kazeri ama hugahie.
Do not add to his words, or he will discipline you, and you will be proved to be a liar.
7 Anumzamoka tare zantfanku kantahige'za huanki kavresra huonanto, ama mopafi ofri'na kasefa hu'na mani'nesurera,
Two things I ask of you, do not withhold them from me before I die:
8 ese' zanku'ma kantahigesuana, nazahuge'na vahe'ma revatgahu avu'ava'zane havigea osaneno. Anante zana natrege'na rama'a feno vahera omanige, namunte omane vahera omanisuanki magoke magoke knama nesugeno namuma hania avamente namio.
Put vanity and lies far away from me. Give me neither poverty nor riches, just give me the food I need.
9 Na'ankure nagrama rama'azama antesuna, namefi hunegamina ru Ra Anumzamoka kage'na antahi'na osu'noe huge, ru namunte omanena musufa nesena, kagi eri haviza huzankura, avamente namio.
For if I have too much, I might deny you and say, “Who is Yahweh?” Or if I become poor, I might steal and profane the name of my God.
10 Mago kazokzo eriza nemofona kva'amofontera vunka ome azeri haviza hu kea osuo. Kagrama anama hnankeno'a, ana kazokzo eriza ne'mo'a antahi haviza hugantena, hazenkefi manigahane.
Do not slander a slave before his master, or he will curse you and you will be held guilty.
11 Mago'a vahe'mo'za nezmafana hu haviza hunezamante'za, nezamrerana musenkea hunozmantaze.
There is a generation that curses their father and does not bless their mother.
12 Mago'a vahe'mo'zama antahizana kumitia omne'ne nehazanagi, Anumzamofo avurera agrua osu'naze.
There is a generation that is pure in their own eyes, and yet they are not washed of their filth.
13 Mago'a vahe'mo'za knare hu'none huza zamavufaga ra nehu'za, mago'a vahe'mokizmia zmage fenkami netraze.
There is a generation whose eyes are raised up, and how high are their eyelids lifted up!
14 Mago'a vahe'mokizmi zamavemo'a, vahe'ma zamahe bainati kazinkna higeno, tuke zamavemo'a kazinkna huno asaneneankino zamunte omane vahe ene, mago'a zanku'ma atupa'ma hu'nesnaza vahera, ama mopafintira zamasga huvazigahaze.
There is a generation whose teeth are swords, and their jawbones are like knives, so they may devour the poor from the earth and the needy from among humanity.
15 Kukufamo'a taremofatre zanante'ne. Zanagi'a, Namio, Namioke! Zmavesizama eriknarema nosia zana 3'a za me'ne. Zmamuma nosia zana 4'a za me'neankino,
The leech has two daughters: “Give and give” they cry. There are three things that are never satisfied, four that never say, “Enough”:
16 e'i ana zantamina, fri vahe kumaki, vene'ma mase a'mo'ma mofavrema nontea naravo aki, tima anihuma nehia hagege mopagi, ke'onke zama tefananema nehia tevemofonena zamura nosie. (Sheol h7585)
Sheol; the barren womb; land that is never satisfied with water; and the fire that never says, “Enough!” (Sheol h7585)
17 Nefama negeno azanava kema hunenteno, nererama kefenkami atresnia vahe'mofo avurga, kotkoti nama zaga'mo'za ana avurga ani kasonepesageno, tumpa namamo'za avufga nevagaregahaze.
The eye that mocks a father and scorns obedience to a mother, his eyes will be pecked out by the ravens of the valley, and he will be eaten by the vultures.
18 Nagritera 3'a zamo ruzahukna zana megeno, antahi ama'ma nosua zana 4'a za me'ne.
There are three things that are too wonderful for me, four that I do not understand:
19 E'i ana zana ina kante tumpamo'a monafina hareno nevie, ina kante osifavemo'a have agofetura regraroheno vanoa nehie. Ina kante ventemo'a tusi'a hagerimpina vano nehie. Hagi na'a hu'nea zanku vene'nemo'za, vene omase akura zamave'nesie.
the way of an eagle in the sky; the way of a snake on a rock; the way of a ship in the heart of the sea; and the way of a man with a young woman.
20 Savri a'mofo avu'avamo'a amanahu hu'ne, venema maseteno'a, ne'za neteno agiteti eri ho'mu hiankna nehuno, kefo zana osu'noe nehie.
This is the way of an adulteress: she eats and she wipes her mouth and says, “I have done nothing wrong.”
21 3'a zamo ama mopamofona azeri tore nehanigeno, 4'a zamo raga oregosie.
Under three things the earth trembles, and under four it cannot bear up:
22 E'i kazokzo eri'za ne'mo'ma kini mani'zane, neginagi antahi'zane vahe'mo'za nezama nezamuma hu'zane,
a slave when he becomes king; a fool when he is filled with food;
23 ave'sinontaza a'mo'ma ve'ma eri'zane, kazokzo eri'za a'mo'ma kva'ama maninesia a'mofo ve'ama rehanareno manizamo'a, ama mopa azeri tore nehie.
a hated woman when she marries; and a maid when she takes the place of her mistress.
24 Ama'na mopafina 4'a onensa zagaramina mani'nazanagi, knare antintahimo'a zamagripina avite'ne.
Four things on earth are small and yet they are very wise:
25 Kipzuvemofona hanave zmimo'a osi hu'neanagi, ko knafima nesagura ne'zana zagegnafi eritru nehaze.
the ants are creatures that are not strong, but they prepare their food in the summer;
26 Krofamofona hanavezmia omne'neanagi, havefi nozmia negize.
the rock badgers are not mighty creatures, but they make their homes in the rocks.
27 Kenumofona kini vahe'zamia omani'neanagi, sondia vahe'mo'zama nehazaza hu'za, vugota hu'za nevazageno, ana amage amage hu'za nevaze.
Locusts have no king, but all of them march in rank.
28 Tagovira kazanteti amne fru hunka azeriga zagamo'agi, kini vahe'mokizmi marerisa nompina ufregahaze.
As for the lizard, you can hold it in your two hands, yet they are found in kings' palaces.
29 3'a zagamo'za knare huza kana nevazagena kenasane nehuanagi, 4'a zagamoza fatgo hu'za nevazagena negoe.
There are three things that are stately in their stride and four that are stately in how they walk:
30 E'i ana zaga laionigino mika zagamofona hanave'amo'a zamagatere'neankino, mago zagagura korora huno manigane ozamantegahie.
a lion, strongest among wild animals— it does not turn away from anything;
31 Ve kokoremoza zamahihiza eri antesga hu'za vazageno, ve memeki afumo'za zamasenia eri antesga hu'za vazankna huno, kini ne'mo'ma sondia vahe'anema nevuno'a, ana nehie.
a strutting rooster; a goat; and a king whose soldiers are beside him.
32 Kagrama neginagi kavukava'ma hunka kavufa ra nehunka, kefo avu'ava'ma hu antahi'zama retro'ma nehanunka, kazanu kagite refintenka kea osuo.
If you have been foolish, exalting yourself, or if you have been devising evil— put your hand over your mouth.
33 Mememofo amirima tatizana bata tronehaze. Hagi kagona ru hapati'sazana, kora hugahie. E'ina hu'negu arimpama ahe'zamo'a, ha' eri fore nehie.
As churning milk makes butter and as one's nose will produce blood if it is twisted, so deeds done in anger produce conflict.
