Whakatauki 11

1 He mea whakarihariha ki a Ihowa te pauna he; engari te taimaha tika tana i pai ai.

Ko e fai kākā ʻi he fakamamafa meʻa ko e fakalielia kia Sihova: ka ʻoku ne leleiʻia ʻi he fakamamafa totonu.

2 Ka tae te whakapehapeha, ka tae ano te whakama; kei te hunga whakaiti ia te whakaaro nui.

‌ʻOka hoko ʻae fielahi, ʻoku hoko foki mo e mā: ka ʻoku ʻi he angavaivai ʻae poto.

3 Ko to ratou ngakau tapatahi hei arahi i te hunga tika; ka ai ano ko te whanoke ia o te hunga poka ke hei whakangaro mo ratou.

‌ʻE fakahinohinoʻi ʻae angatonu ʻe heʻenau fai totonu: ka ʻe fakaʻauha ʻae angahala ʻe heʻenau talangataʻa.

4 E kore te taonga e whai mana i te ra o te riri: kei te tika ia he oranga ake i te mate.

‌ʻOku ʻikai ʻaonga ʻae koloa ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe houhau: ka ʻoku fakahaofi mei he mate ʻae māʻoniʻoni.

5 Ma te tika o te ngakau tapatahi ka tika ai tona ara; ka hinga ia te tangata kino i runga i tona kino.

‌ʻE fakatonutonu ʻae hala ʻoe haohaoa ʻi heʻene māʻoniʻoni: ka ʻe hinga ʻae angahala ʻi heʻene angahala ʻaʻana.

6 Ma te tika o te hunga tika ka mawhiti ai ratou; ka mau ia nga poka ke i runga i to ratou kino.

‌ʻE fakamoʻui ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻi heʻenau angatonu: ka ʻe moʻua ʻae angahala ʻi heʻenau kovi ʻanautolu.

7 I te matenga o te tangata kino, kore iho ana mea i tumanako atu ai: kahore noa iho he tumanakohanga ma te hunga he.

‌ʻOka mate ʻae tangata angahala, ʻe ʻauha ai ʻene ʻamanaki: pea ʻoku ʻauha mo e ʻamanaki ʻoe taʻeangatonu.

8 Ka mawhiti te tangata tika i roto i te raru, a ka riro te tangata kino hei whakakapi mo tona turanga.

‌ʻOku fakamoʻui ʻae māʻoniʻoni mei he mamahi, pea kuo tongia ia ʻe he tangata angahala.

9 Hei huna mo tona hoa te mangai o te tangata whakaponokore; na ma te mohio te hunga tika ka mawhiti ai.

‌ʻOku fakamalaʻia ʻe he tangata kākā ʻa hono kāinga ʻaki hono ngutu: ka ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻilo ʻe fakamoʻui ʻae angatonu.

10 Ka pai te hunga tika, ka hari te pa: ka whakangaromia te hunga kino, ka tangi te umere.

‌ʻOku fiefia ʻae kolo ʻi he monūʻia ʻae māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻi he mate ʻae angahala ʻoku ai ʻae mavava.

11 Ma te manaaki o te hunga tika ka kake ai te pa; ka pakaru ia i te mangai o te hunga kino.

‌ʻOku hakeakiʻi ʻae kolo ʻi he tāpuaki ʻoe angatonu: ka ʻoku holoki hifo ia ʻe he ngutu ʻoe angahala.

12 Ko te tangata e whakahawea ana ki tona hoa he maharakore: tena ko te tangata matau, whakarongo puku ana.

Ko ia ʻoku masiva poto ʻoku ne fehiʻa ki hono kaungāʻapi: ka ʻoku fakalongo pē ʻae tangata poto.

13 Ko te tangata haere, ka kawekawe korero e whaki ana i nga mea ngaro: ko te tangata i te wairua pono, e hipoki ana i te korero.

‌ʻOku fakahā ʻae ngaahi tala fufū ʻe ia ʻoku fakalanga lau: ka ko ia ʻoku loto totonu ʻoku ne ʻufiʻufi ʻae meʻa.

14 Ki te kahore he mohio hei arahi, ka hinga te iwi: he ora ia kei nga kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro tokomaha.

‌ʻI he ʻikai ha faʻa fakakaukau ʻoku hinga ʻae kakai: ka ʻoku ai ʻae maluʻi ʻi he fakakaukau ʻae toko lahi.

15 Ko te tangata ko tana nei hei whakakapi mo ta te tangata ke, ka mamae; kei te ora ia te tangata e kino ana ki te tikanga whakakapi turanga.

Ko ia ʻoku ne tongia ha taha foʻou ʻe mamahi ai ia: pea ko ia ʻoku fehiʻa ke fai ʻae fetongi ʻe tuʻutuʻumālie ia.

16 Ka mau te kororia i te wahine tikanga pai; ka mau hoki te taonga i nga tangata taikaha.

‌ʻOku maʻu ʻi he fefine angalelei ʻae ongoongolelei: pea ʻoku maʻu pe ki he kakai mālohi ʻenau koloa.

17 He atawhai i tona wairua ta te tangata atawhai; a he whakararu i ona kikokiko ta te tangata nanakia.

‌ʻOku fai lelei ʻe he tangata angaʻofa ki hono laumālie ʻoʻona: ka ko ia ʻoka anga fakamālohi ʻoku ne fakamamahiʻi hono kakano ʻoʻona.

18 Ko te mahi a te tangata kino e utua ana ki te teka: ko te utu ia mo te kaiwhakatakoto i te tika, u rawa.

‌ʻOku fai ʻe he angahala ʻae ngāue fakakākaaʻi: ka ʻe maʻu ʻae totongi moʻoni ʻe ia ʻoku tūtuuʻi ʻae māʻoniʻoni.

19 Ko te tangata u ki te tika, ka whiwhi ki te ora: a, ko te tangata e whai ana i te kino e mea ana i te mate mona.

‌ʻO hangē ʻoku fakatau ʻae māʻoniʻoni ki he moʻui: ʻoku pehē, ko ia ʻoku tulituli pau ki he kovi ʻoku ne fai ia ke ne mate ai ia.

20 Ko ta Ihowa e whakarihariha ai he ngakau whanoke; ko tana e ahuareka ai ko te hunga e tika ana to ratou ara.

Ko kinautolu ʻoku loto pikopiko ʻoku fakalielia kia Sihova: ka ʻoku fiemālie ia ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku totonu honau hala.

21 Ahakoa awhi nga ringa ki a raua, e kore te tangata kino e waiho kia kore e whiua; ka mawhiti ia te uri o te hunga tika.

Neongo ʻae fepukeaki ʻae nima ʻoe kakai angahala ʻe ʻikai taʻetautea ʻakinautolu: ka ʻe fakamoʻui ʻae hako ʻoe māʻoniʻoni.

22 Rite tonu ki te whakakai koura i te ihu o te poaka te wahine ataahua kahore nei ona ngarahu pai.

‌ʻO hangē ko e mama koula ʻi he ihu ʻoe puaka, ʻoku pehē ʻae fefine hoihoifua ʻoku ʻikai ke anga fakapotopoto.

23 Ko ta te hunga tika e minamina ai, ko te pai anake; ko te tumanako ia a te hunga kino, ko te riri.

‌ʻOku lelei maʻu pe ʻae holi ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni: ka ko e houhau ʻoku ʻamanaki ki ai ʻae angahala.

24 Tera tetahi kei te rui, a tapiritia mai ana ano; tera tetahi kei te kaiponu i te mea e tika ana, heoi rawakore noa iho.

‌ʻOku ai ʻaia ʻoku faʻa foaki, kae maʻu ai ʻo lahi: pea ʻoku ai ʻoku taʻofi ʻi he meʻa ʻoku totonu ke fai, ka ʻoku tupu ai ʻa ʻene masiva.

25 Ko te wairua ohaoha ka momona: ko te tangata e whakamakuku ana, ka whakamakukuria ano ia.

‌ʻE fakamaʻumeʻaʻi ʻae loto ʻoku faʻa ʻofa: pea ko ia ʻoku faʻa fakaviviku ʻe fakaviviku ia foki.

26 Ko te tangata e kaiponu ana i te witi, ka kanga tera e te nuinga; ka tau ia te manaaki ki runga ki te mahunga o te tangata e hoko atu ana.

‌ʻE fakamalaʻia ia ʻe he kakai ʻaia ʻoku taʻofi ʻae meʻakai: ka ʻe hilifaki ʻae monūʻia ki hono ʻulu ʻaia ʻoku faʻa fakatau ia.

27 Ko te tangata e ata rapu ana i te pai, e rapu ana i te whakapai: ko te tangata ia e rapu ana i te he, ka tae tera ki a ia.

‌ʻOku maʻu ʻae ongoongolelei ʻe ia ʻoku kumi fakamātoato ki he lelei: ka ko ia ʻoku kumi ki he kovi, ʻe hoko mai pe ia kiate ia.

28 Ko te tangata e whakawhirinaki ana ki ona taonga, ka taka: na, ko te hunga tika ka rite to ratou tupu ki to te rau matomato.

‌ʻE hinga ia ʻaia ʻoku falala ki heʻene koloa: ka ʻe tupu ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻo hangē ko e vaʻa.

29 Ko te tangata e whakararu ana i tona whare, he hau te taonga e whakarerea iho mona: hei pononga ano te kuware ma te ngakau whakaaro nui.

Ko ia ʻoku faʻa fakafiuʻi ʻa hono fale ʻoʻona, ʻe maʻu pe ʻe ia ʻae matangi: pea ʻe hoko ʻae vale ko e tamaioʻeiki kiate ia ʻoku poto hono loto.

30 Ko nga hua o te tangata tika he rakau no te ora; ka hopu wairua ano te tangata whakaaro tika.

Ko e fua ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ʻoku hangē ko e ʻakau ʻoe moʻui; pea ko ia ʻoku lavaʻi ʻae ngaahi laumālie ʻoku poto ia.

31 Nana, he utu ano to te tangata tika i runga i te whenua: nui atu ia to te tangata kino raua ko te tangata hara.

Vakai, ʻe maʻu totongi ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻi he māmani: ka ʻe lahi hake ʻene maʻu totongi ʻe he angakovi mo e angahala.
