Mani'zanti Mofo Nanekee 8
1 Knare antahintahi'zamo'ene antahi amahu antahi'zamo'a mago a'kna hu'neankino agerura eri antesga huno kezana netie.
You shall proclaim wisdom, that understanding may be obedient to you.
2 Agra kamofo tavaonte me'nea agonare, ka hatana hu'nefi oti'neno,
For she is on lofty eminences, and stands in the midst of the ways.
3 rankumapi ufre'nea kante ene kampi otineno ranke huno kezana netie.
For she sits by the gates of princes, and sings in the entrances, [saying],
4 Ana miko vahe'motmagu kezankea nehue. Vahe'motagu kezankea nehue.
You, O men, I exhort; and utter my voice to the sons of men.
5 Antahi'zantmi omane vahe'motma eta knare'ma huno refakomahu antahi'zana emeriho. Neginagi antahi'zane vahe'motma, eta antahi amahu antahi'zana emeriho.
O you simple, understand subtlety, and you that are untaught, imbibe knowledge.
6 Kama antahiho kema nehuana, na'ankure mareri agatere'nea zanku nehue, maka nanekema hanua kemo'a, fatgo huno tamage kege tamasamigahue.
Listen to me; for I will speak solemn [truths]; and will produce right [sayings] from my lips.
7 Nagra tamage kege nehu'na, havi kegagama nagipinti'ma hu'zankura nagonete.
For my throat shall meditate truth; and false lips are an abomination before me.
8 Maka nanekenimo'a tamage huno fatgo higeno, krunagene kazaki kema hu'zana omane'neanki,
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing in them wrong or perverse.
9 ana maka kemo'a antahi'zane vahetera fatgo hu'ne. Ana antahi'zama erinaku'ma hakaza vahetera, fatgo hu'ne.
They are all evident to those that understand, and right to those that find knowledge.
10 Nagrama hiho hu'nama rempima huneramua kemo'a, silva agateregeno, antahi'zama eri'zamo'a, goli'a agatere'neanki eriho.
Receive instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than tried gold.
11 Na'ankure knare antahi'zamo'a mareri agatere'nea havea agatereno, kavesi kavesima nehunka razane hunka nehanazana agatere'ne.
For wisdom is better than precious stones; and no valuable substance is of equal worth with it.
12 Nagra knare antahi'zamo'na knare huno refakohu avu'ava'zane nemanue, Nagripi antahi'zana me'neanki'na miko zana nagrake refko hu'na negoe.
I wisdom have lived [with] counsel and knowledge, and I have called upon understanding.
13 Ra Anumzamofonku'ma koro'ma hunte'zana kefo avu'ava'ma huzankura kagotegahie. Agra'a agima erisga nehuno, avufga ra nehuno, havi avu'ava nehuno, akrahe akrehe ageru'ma aru'zana navesra hunentoe.
The fear of the Lord hates unrighteousness, and insolence, and pride, and the ways of wicked men; and I hate the perverse ways of bad men.
14 Knare antahi'zama ami'zane, refakoma hu'zana nagripi me'ne. Nagra antahi ama'ma hu'zane hanavenena nagri zane.
Counsel and safety are mine; prudence is mine, and strength is mine.
15 Nagra mani'noge'za kini vahe'mo'za kegava nehazageno, ugota kva vahe'mo'za fatgo hu'nea kasegea retro nehaze.
By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
16 Kva vahe'mo'za nagra zamaza nehuge'za, vahera zamavare fatgo hu'za nevazageno, trakere kva vahe'mo'za fatgo hu'za refkoa nehaze.
By me nobles become great, and monarchs by me rule over the earth.
17 Iza'o nagri'ma avesi nentemofona, nagra avesi nentoe. Hagi nagriku'ma hakre'nimo'a, nagrira nagefore hugahie.
I love those that love me; and they that seek me shall find [me].
18 Nagripi fenozane, ra agima eri'zana me'ne. Hanavetino za'zate'ma meno vu fenozane, fatgo avu'ava zana nagripi me'ne.
Wealth and glory belong to me; yes, abundant possessions and righteousness.
19 Nagrama nezamua zamo'a, golia agatenereno knare silvama mizama nesazazana agatere'ne.
[It is] better to have my fruit than [to have] gold and precious stones; and my produce is better than choice silver.
20 Nagra fatgo avu'ava zamofo kante nevu'na, fatgo huno refakoma hu'zamofo kantamimpi nevue.
I walk in ways of righteousness, and [am] conversant with the paths of judgement;
21 Iza'zo nagri'ma zamavesi nantesaza naga'mo'za, fenona erisanti neharesage'na, nagra feno nozamifina zago'amo'ma mareri zantamina antevi tezamantegahue.
that I may divide substance to them that love me, and may fill their treasures with good things. If I declare to you the things that daily happen, I will remember [also] to recount the things of old.
22 Ra Anumzamo'a pusazana nagri nazeri fore huteno, mika'zana henka tro hu'ne.
The Lord made me the beginning of his ways for his works.
23 Korapara ama mopama tro osu'neno ese zana nagri huhamprinante'ne.
He established me before time [was] in the beginning, before he made the earth:
24 Nagra fore hutogeno henka hagerina tro higeno, kampui tintamimo'a hanatino vu'ne.
even before he made the depths; before the fountains of water came forth:
25 Ranra agonane, onensa agona forera huno menima antenerera omanenege'na, nagra pusante fore hu'noe.
before the mountains were settled, and before all hills, he begets me.
26 Miko mopane, hofa kokama ama mopafi me'neane, kugusopa nazana henka tro hu'ne.
The Lord made countries and uninhabited [tracks], and the highest inhabited parts of the world.
27 Nagra korapa mani'nogeno monarera mika'zana tro hunenteno, hagerina tro huntegeno, tavumo'ma ometre emetre'ma hutera evu'ne.
When he prepared the heaven, I was present with him; and when he prepared his throne upon the winds:
28 Nagra ko mani'nogeno anagamua hampona tro hunenteno, tinkampu'ima hanatino tiru'ma umarenia keria tro hu'ne.
and when he strengthened the clouds above; and when he secured the fountains of the earth:
29 Nagra korapa mani'nogeno hagerinkura, e'i avamente tirura marenka emetro huno kase hunenteno, tiru'ma maresia mopa trohu'ne.
decree. and when he strengthened the foundations of the earth:
30 Nagra maka'zama tro'ma hu'nea Ne'mofo tavaonte mani'ne'na, aza nehugeno muse nehige'na maka kna nagranena rama'a muse nehue.
I was by him, suiting [myself to him], I was that wherein he took delight; and daily I rejoiced in his presence continually.
31 Maka kokama tro'ma hu'nea zanku'ene vahe'ma anampima mani'nea zankura, nagra tusi'a muse nehue.
For he rejoiced when he had completed the world, and rejoiced amongst the children of men.
32 E'ina hu'negu mofavre'nimoka ke'ni'a antahinamio, na'ankure nagri navu'nava zama avaririsaza vahe'mo'za muse hugahaze.
Now then, [my] son, hear me: blessed is the man who shall listen to me, and the mortal who shall keep my ways;
33 Kavumro'ma antesua kea nentahinka, ama antahi'zana e'nerinka kavesra huontenka amage anto.
[Hear wisdom and be wise, and be not strangers to it. ]
34 Ke'ni'ama nentahi'za, kumanimofo atirami kante'ma knane knanema naveganente'za, kahani'are'ma navegama nentaza vahe'mo'za, tusi muse hugahaze.
watching daily at my doors, waiting at the posts of my entrances.
35 Na'ankure nagriku'ma hakremo'a, nomaniza hakeno erifore nehigeno, Ra Anumzamo'a avesinente.
For my outgoings are the outgoings of life, and [in them] is prepared favour from the Lord.
36 Hianagi ha'marenanteno kumi'ma nehimo'a, agra'a hazenke enerie. Iza'o avesrama hunantemo'a, fri'zamofo avesinente.
But they that sin against me act wickedly against their own souls: and they that hate me love death.
