Ohabolana 30
1 Ny teny mavesa-danja nataon’ i Agora, zanak’ i Jake, dia ny teny nataon-dralehilahy tamin’ Itiela, eny, tamin’ Itiela sy Okala:
THE WORDS OF AGUR THE SONNE OF JAKEH. The prophecie which ye man spake vnto Ithiel, euen to Ithiel, and Vcal.
2 Izaho dia biby, fa tsy olona, Ary tsy manan-tsain’ olombelona aho.
Surely I am more foolish then any man, and haue not the vnderstanding of a man in me.
3 Tsy nianatra fahendrena aho, Na nahazo ny fahalalana ny Iray Masìna.
For I haue not learned wisedome, nor atteined to the knowledge of holy things.
4 Iza no efa niakatra tany an-danitra sady nidina indray? Iza no nahangona ny rivotra tao an-tànany? Iza no nahafono ny rano tamin’ ny lambany? Iza no nahamisy ny faran’ ny tany rehetra? Iza no anarany, ary iza no anaran’ ny zanany? Fa toa fantatrao!
Who hath ascended vp to heauen, and descended? Who hath gathered the winde in his fist? Who hath bound the waters in a garment? Who hath established all the endes of the world? What is his name, and what is his sonnes name, if thou canst tell?
5 Ny tenin’ Andriamanitra dia voadio avokoa; Ampinga ho an’ izay mialoka aminy Izy.
Euery worde of God is pure: he is a shield to those, that trust in him.
6 Aza manampy ny teniny, fandrao hanariny ianao Ka ho hita fa mpandainga.
Put nothing vnto his wordes, least he reproue thee, and thou be found a lyar.
7 Zavatra roa loha no angatahiko aminao; Ka aza lavinao, dieny tsy mbola maty aho:
Two things haue I required of thee: denie me them not before I die.
8 Ampanalaviro ahy ny zava-poana sy ny lainga; Aza manome ahy alahelo na harena; Fahano aho amin’ izay anjara-hanina sahaza ho ahy;
Remooue farre from me vanitie and lyes: giue me not pouertie, nor riches: feede me with foode conuenient for me,
9 Fandrao, raha voky aho, dia handà Ka hanao hoe: Iza moa Jehovah? Ary andrao, raha tonga malahelo aho, dia hangalatra Ka hanamavo ny anaran’ Andriamanitro.
Least I be full, and denie thee, and say, Who is the Lord? or least I be poore and steale, and take the Name of my God in vaine.
10 Aza manendrikendrika ny mpanompo amin’ ny tompony, Fandrao hozoniny ianao ka hahazo heloka.
Accuse not a seruant vnto his master, lest he curse thee, when thou hast offended.
11 Misy taranaka izay manozona ny rainy Sady tsy misaotra ny reniny.
There is a generation that curseth their father, and doeth not blesse their mother.
12 Misy taranaka manao azy ho madio, Kanjo tsy voasasa ho afaka amin’ ny fahalotoany.
There is a generation that are pure in their owne conceite, and yet are not washed from their filthinesse.
13 Misy taranaka, endrey ny fiandrandran’ ny masony Sy ny fisondrotry ny hodi-masony!
There is a generation, whose eies are hautie, and their eye liddes are lifted vp.
14 Misy taranaka izay toy ny sabatra ny nifiny, Ary toy ny antsy ny vazany, Hamongotra ny ory tsy ho amin’ ny tany Sy ny malahelo tsy ho amin’ ny olona.
There is a generation, whose teeth are as swordes, and their chawes as kniues to eate vp the afflicted out of the earth, and the poore from among men.
15 Ny dinta manan-janakavavy roa, dia ny hoe: Omeo, Omeo. Misy zavatra telo tsy mety voky, Eny, efatra aza no tsy manao hoe: Aoka izay:
The horse leache hath two daughters which crye, Giue, giue. There be three things that will not be satisfied: yea, foure that say not, It is ynough.
16 Ny fiainan-tsi-hita; sy ny kibo momba, Ny tany izay tsy vonton-drano, Ary ny afo koa no tsy mba manao hoe: Aoka izay. (Sheol h7585)
The graue, and the barren wombe, the earth that cannot be satisfied with water, and the fire that sayeth not, It is ynough. (Sheol h7585)
17 Ny maso izay miandranandrana amin-dray Sady tsy mety manaja reny Dia hotsaingotsaingohin’ ny goaika eny an-dohasahan-driaka Ary hohanin’ ny zana-boromahery.
The eye that mocketh his father and despiseth the instruction of his mother, let ye rauens of the valley picke it out, and the yong eagles eate it.
18 Misy zavatra telo mahagaga ka tsy takatro, Eny, efatra aza no tsy fantatro:
There be three thinges hid from me: yea, foure that I knowe not,
19 Ny nalehan’ ny voromahery teny amin’ ny habakabaka, Ny nalehan’ ny bibilava teny amin’ ny vatolampy, Ny nalehan’ ny sambo teny amin’ ny ranomasina, Ary ny nalehan’ ny lehilahy tamin’ ny tovovavy.
The way of an eagle in the aire, the way of a serpent vpon a stone, ye way of a ship in ye middes of the sea, and the way of a man with a maide.
20 Tahaka izany koa no fanaon’ ny vehivavy mpijangajanga: Homana izy, dia mamafa ny vavany, Ka dia manao hoe: Tsy nanao ratsy aho.
Such is ye way also of an adulterous woman: she eateth and wipeth her mouth, and sayth, I haue not committed iniquitie.
21 Izao fitondrana telo izao no tsy mampandry ny tany, Eny, zavatra efatra aza no tsy zakany;
For three things the earth is moued: yea, for foure it cannot susteine it selfe:
22 Raha ny andevo no tonga mpanjaka, Raha ny adala no voky hanina,
For a seruant when he reigneth, and a foole when he is filled with meate,
23 Raha ny vehivavy lany zara no ampakarina, Ary raha ny ankizivavy no mandova ny tompovaviny.
For the hatefull woman, when she is married, and for a handmaid that is heire to her mistres.
24 Izao zavatra efatra izao dia kely amin’ ny etỳ ambonin’ ny tany, Nefa hendry sady mahay:
These be foure small things in the earth, yet they are wise and full of wisedome:
25 Ny vitsika dia firenena tsy matanjaka, Nefa manangona ny haniny amin’ ny fahavaratra izy;
The pismires a people not strong, yet prepare they their meate in sommer:
26 Ny biby hyraka dia firenena tsy manan-kery, Nefa manao ny tranony ao amin’ ny harambato izy;
The conies a people not mightie, yet make their houses in the rocke:
27 Ny valala tsy manana mpanjaka, Nefa izy rehetra miainga manao antokony tsara;
The grashopper hath no King, yet goe they forth all by bandes:
28 Ny antsiantsy dia mandady amin’ ny tànany, Nefa tonga ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka izy.
The spider taketh holde with her handes, and is in Kings palaces.
29 Misy zavatra telo izay tsara famindra, Eny, efatra aza no tsara fandeha;
There be three thinges that order well their going: yea, foure are comely in going,
30 Dia ny liona, izay mahery indrindra amin’ ny biby Ka tsy mihemotra na amin’ inona na amin’ inona,
A lyon which is strong among beastes, and turneth not at the sight of any:
31 Ny soavaly voaomana hiady sy ny osilahy Ary ny mpanjaka tsy azo toherina.
A lusty grayhound, and a goate, and a King against whom there is no rising vp.
32 Raha adala ka nanandra-tena ianao, Na efa nisaina hanao ratsy, Dia tampeno ny tananao ny vavanao.
If thou hast bene foolish in lifting thy selfe vp, and if thou hast thought wickedly, lay thine hand vpon thy mouth.
33 Ny fanontsankontsanana ny ronono no miteraka rononomandry, Ny fanolanana ny orona no miteraka rà; Ary ny fanetsiketsehana ny fahatezerana no miteraka ady.
When one churneth milke, he bringeth foorth butter: and he that wringeth his nose, causeth blood to come out: so he that forceth wrath, bringeth foorth strife.
