Ohabolana 10
1 Ohabolan’ i Solomona. Ny zanaka hendry mahafaly ny rainy; Fa ny zanaka adala mampalahelo ny reniny.
THE PARABLE OF SALOMON. A wise sonne maketh a glad father: but a foolish sonne is an heauines to his mother.
2 Ny harena azo amin’ ny tsy marina dia tsy mahasoa na inona na inona; Fa ny fahamarinana no mamonjy amin’ ny fahafatesana.
The treasures of wickednesse profite nothing: but righteousnesse deliuereth from death.
3 Tsy avelan’ i Jehovah ho mosarena ny fanahin’ ny marina; Fa foanany ny fanirian’ ny ratsy fanahy.
The Lord will not famish the soule of the righteous: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked.
4 Ho tonga malahelo ny miraviravy tanana amin’ ny asany; Fa mampanan-karena ny tanan’ ny mazoto.
A slouthfull hand maketh poore: but the hand of the diligent maketh riche.
5 Izay manangona amin’ ny fararano no zanaka hendry; Fa izay sondrian-tory amin’ ny taom-pijinjana no zanaka mampahamenatra.
He that gathereth in sommer, is the sonne of wisdome: but he that sleepeth in haruest, is the sonne of confusion.
6 Fitahiana no ho ao amin’ ny lohan’ ny marina; Fa loza no mandrakotra ny vavan’ ny ratsy fanahy.
Blessings are vpon the head of the righteous: but iniquitie shall couer the mouth of the wicked.
7 Hankasitrahana ny fahatsiarovana ny marina; Fa ho lò ny anaran’ ny ratsy fanahy.
The memoriall of the iust shalbe blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rotte.
8 Izay hendry am-po no handray ny didy; Fa ho lavo ny adala maro vava.
The wise in heart will receiue commandements: but the foolish in talke shalbe beaten.
9 Izay mandeha tsy misy tsiny no mandeha matoky; Fa izay maniasia amin’ ny alehany dia fantatra.
He that walketh vprightly, walketh boldely: but he that peruerteth his wayes, shalbe knowen.
10 Izay mami-maso manome alahelo; Fa ho lavo ny adala maro vava.
He that winketh with the eye, worketh sorowe, and he yet is foolish in talke, shalbe beaten.
11 Loharanon’ aina ny vavan’ ny marina; Fa loza no mandrakotra ny vavan’ ny ratsy fanahy.
The mouth of a righteous man is a welspring of life: but iniquitie couereth the mouth of the wicked.
12 Ny fankahalana dia manetsika ady; Fa ny fitiavana manarona ny ota rehetra.
Hatred stirreth vp contentions: but loue couereth all trespasses.
13 Amin’ ny molotry ny manan-tsaina no ahitam-pahendrena; Fa tsorakazo no ho amin’ ny lamosin’ ny tsy ampy saina.
In the lippes of him that hath vnderstanding wisdome is founde, and a rod shalbe for the backe of him that is destitute of wisedome.
14 Ny hendry mirakitra fahalalana; Fa ny vavan’ ny adala eo akaikin’ ny fandringanana.
Wise men lay vp knowledge: but ye mouth of the foole is a present destruction.
15 Ny haren’ ny manan-karena no vohiny mafy; Fa ny tsi-fananan’ ny ory no fandringanana azy.
The riche mans goodes are his strong citie: but the feare of the needie is their pouertie.
16 Ho fiainana ny asan’ ny marina; Fa ho ota ny fitomboan’ ny haren’ ny ratsy fanahy.
The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: but the reuenues of the wicked to sinne.
17 Izay mino anatra dia ho tonga eo amin’ ny lalan’ ny fiainana; Fa mivily izay mandà anatra.
He that regardeth instruction, is in the way of life: but he that refuseth correction, goeth out of the way.
18 Izay mitahiry lolompo dia manana molotra mandainga, Ary izay mampiely endrikendrika dia adala.
He that dissembleth hatred with lying lips, and he that inuenteth slaunder, is a foole.
19 Ny teny maro tsy ilaozan’ izay ota; Fa izay mahatana ny molony no hendry.
In many wordes there cannot want iniquitie: but he that refrayneth his lippes, is wise.
20 Volafotsy voafantina ny lelan’ ny marina; Fa ny fon’ ny ratsy fanahy tsy misy vidiny.
The tongue of the iust man is as fined siluer: but the heart of the wicked is litle worth.
21 Ny molotry ny marina mamelona ny maro; Fa maty ny adala noho ny tsi-fananany fahalalana.
The lippes of the righteous doe feede many: but fooles shall die for want of wisedome.
22 Ny fitahian’ i Jehovah no mampanan-karena, Ary tsy azon’ ny fisasarana ampiana izany.
The blessing of the Lord, it maketh riche, and he doeth adde no sorowes with it.
23 Toa laolaon’ ny adala ny fanaovan-dratsy Fa raha ny manan-tsaina, dia fahendrena kosa.
It is as a pastime to a foole to doe wickedly: but wisedome is vnderstanding to a man.
24 Ny tahotry ny ratsy fanahy hihatra aminy; Fa ny irin’ ny marina no homena azy.
That which the wicked feareth, shall come vpon him: but God wil graunt the desire of the righteous.
25 Rehefa mipaoka ny tafio-drivotra, dia tsy ao intsony ny ratsy fanahy; Fa ny marina voaorina ho mandrakizay.
As the whirlewinde passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the righteous is as an euerlasting foundation.
26 Toy ny vinaingitra amin’ ny nify sy ny setroka amin’ ny maso. Dia mba toy izany koa ny malaina amin’ izay maniraka azy.
As vineger is to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the slouthful to them that send him.
27 Ny fahatahorana an’ i Jehovah no mahela velona; Fa ny taonan’ ny ratsy fanahy hohafohezina.
The feare of the Lord increaseth the dayes: but the yeeres of the wicked shalbe diminished.
28 Ny fanantenan’ ny marina dia fifaliana; Fa ny fanantenan’ ny ratsy fanahy ho foana.
The patient abiding of the righteous shall be gladnesse: but the hope of the wicked shall perish.
29 Ny lalan’ i Jehovah dia fiarovana mafy ho an’ izay tsy misy tsiny, Fa fandringanana kosa ho an’ ny mpanao ratsy.
The way of the Lord is strength to the vpright man: but feare shall be for the workers of iniquitie.
30 Ny marina tsy hangozohozo mandrakizay; Fa ny ratsy fanahy tsy honina amin’ ny tany.
The righteous shall neuer be remooued: but the wicked shall not dwell in the land.
31 Eo amin’ ny vavan’ ny marina no itsimohan’ ny fahendrena; Fa ny lela fandainga hofongorana.
The mouth of the iust shall be fruitfull in wisdome: but the tongue of the froward shall be cut out.
32 Ny molotry ny marina mahalala izay ankasitrahana; Fa ny vavan’ ny ratsy fanahy dia feno fitaka.
The lips of the righteous knowe what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh froward things.
