< Whakatauki 13 >
1 Ko te tama whakaaro nui ka rongo ki ta tona papa ako: ko te tangata whakahi ia e kore e rongo ki te riri.
ʻOku ongoʻi ʻe he foha ʻoku poto ʻae akonaki ʻa ʻene tamai: ka ʻoku ʻikai ke maʻu ʻae valoki ʻe he faʻa manuki.
2 E kai te tangata i te pai i te hua o tona mangai: ka kai ia te wairua o te hunga wanoke i te tutu.
ʻE kai ʻe he tangata ʻae lelei ʻi he fua ʻo hono ngutu: ka ʻe hoko ʻae fakamālohi ki he laumālie ʻoe kakai fai kovi.
3 Ko te tangata e tiaki ana i tona mangai e pupuri ana i tona ora: ko te tangata ia e hamama nui ana ona ngutu, ko te whakangaromanga mona.
Ko ia ʻoku vakai ki hono ngutu, ʻoku tauhi ʻe ia ʻene moʻui: ka ʻe hoko ʻae fakaʻauha kiate ia ʻoku fakamanga lahi hono loungutu.
4 E hiahia ana te wairua o te tangata mangere, a kahore he mea mana: ka meinga ia kia momona te wairua o te hunga uaua.
ʻOku holi ʻae laumālie ʻoe fakapikopiko, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne maʻu ha meʻa: ka ʻe fafangaʻi ʻae laumālie ʻoe faʻa ngāue.
5 E kino ana te tangata tika ki te korero teka: he mea whakarihariha ia te tangata kino, a whakama noa iho.
ʻOku fehiʻa ki he loi ʻae tangata māʻoniʻoni: ka ko e tangata angahala ko e fakalielia ia, pea ʻoku hoko ia ʻo mā.
6 Ko te tika hei kaitiaki mo te tangata e tapatahi ana te ara: ka whakataka ano te tangata kino e te hara.
ʻOku fokotuʻumaʻu ʻi hono hala ʻe he māʻoniʻoni ʻaia ʻoku angatonu; ka ʻoku tulaki hifo ʻe he kovi ʻaia ʻoku angahala.
7 Tera tetahi kei te amene taonga mona, heoi kahore rawa he mea i a ia: tera tetahi kei te whakarawakore i a ia, heoi nui atu ona rawa.
ʻOku ai ʻaia ʻoku ne fakamaʻumeʻaʻi ia, ka ʻoku ne masiva pe: pea ʻoku ai ʻaia ʻoku ne fakamasivaʻi ia, ka ʻoku maʻu ʻe ia ʻae koloa lahi.
8 Ko nga utu mo te tangata kia ora, ko ona rawa: tena ko te rawakore, e kore e rongo i te riri.
Ko e koloa ʻae tangata ko e huhuʻi ia ʻo ʻene moʻui: ka ʻoku ʻikai fanongo ki he valoki ʻae masiva.
9 E koa ana te marama o te hunga tika: ka keto ia te rama o te hunga kino.
ʻOku fiefia ʻae maama ʻoe māʻoniʻoni ka ʻe tāmateʻi ʻae maama ʻoe angahala.
10 He totohe anake i ahu mai i te whakapehapeha: he whakaaro nui ia kei te hunga i nga kupu tika.
ʻOku tupu pe ʻi he fielahi ʻae fekeʻikeʻi: ka ʻoku maʻu ʻae poto ʻekinautolu kuo akonakiʻi lelei.
11 Ko nga taonga i puta mai i te whakamanamana ka iti haere: ko ta te tangata i whakaemi ai, he mea mahi, ka tupu haere.
Ko e koloa ʻoku maʻu ʻi he vikiviki ʻe fakaʻaʻau ia ke ʻosi: ka ʻe fakalahi ia kiate ia ʻoku tānaki ʻi he faʻa ngāue.
12 He manako taringa roa, he patu ngakau: ka tae te koronga, ko te rakau ia o te ora.
ʻOku pongia ʻae loto ʻi he ʻamanaki ʻoku tuai ʻene hoko: pea ka hoko mai ʻaia ʻoku holi ki ai, ʻoku hangē ia ko e ʻakau ʻoe moʻui.
13 Ko te tangata e whakahawea ana ki te kupu, ka ngaro i a ia ano; ko te tangata ia e wehi ana i te whakahau, ka whiwhi ki te utu.
ʻE fakaʻauha ia ʻaia ʻoku fehiʻa ki he folofola: ka ʻe fiemālie pe ia ʻaia ʻoku manavahē ki he fekau.
14 Ko te ture o te hunga whakaaro nui, he puna no te ora, e puta ai i nga reti o te mate.
Ko e fono ʻae poto ko e matavai ia ʻoe moʻui, ke tau hao ai mei he ngaahi tauhele ʻoe mate.
15 Ko to te ngarahu pai he homai atawhai; he taikaha ia te ara o te hunga nanakia.
ʻOku tupu mei he fakakaukau lelei ʻae ʻofa: ka ʻoku faingataʻa ʻae hala ʻoe kakai angahala.
16 He mahi mohio ta te tangata tupato; ko ta te wairangi he hora i te kuwaretanga.
ʻOku faʻa kau ki he ʻilo ʻae tangata fakapotopoto: ka ʻoku fakahā pe ʻe he vale ʻa ʻene vale.
17 Ka hinga te karere kino ki te kino; ko te karere pono ia, ano he rongoa.
ʻOku tō ki he kovi ʻae talafekau angakovi: ka ko e fakamoʻui ʻae talafekau ʻoku angatonu.
18 Ko te tangata kahore e pai ki te papaki, mana te rawakore, te whakama; engari ko te tangata e whai mahara ana ki te ako, ka whakahonoretia.
ʻE hoko ʻae masiva mo e mā kiate ia ʻoku ne tekeʻi ʻae akonaki: ka ʻe hakeakiʻi ia ʻaia ʻoku tokanga ki he valoki.
19 Ko te hiahia kua rite, he reka ki te wairua: he whakarihariha ia ki nga kuware te whakarere i te kino.
ʻOku huʻamelie ki he laumālie ʻae hoko mai ʻoe meʻa ʻoku tau holi ki ai: ka ko e meʻa fakalielia ki he vale ʻae tafoki mei he kovi.
20 Haere i te taha o te hunga whakaaro nui, a ka whai whakaaro koe: ko te takahoa ia o nga kuware, ka mamae.
Ko ia ʻoku ʻaʻeva fakataha mo e kakai poto ʻe poto ai ia: ka ʻe fakaʻauha ia ʻoku kaumeʻa mo e kakai vale.
21 Ka whai te kino i te hunga hara; ko te utu ia ki te hunga tika, he pai.
ʻOku tulia ʻae kau angahala ʻe he kovi: ka ʻe toe totongi ʻaki ʻae lelei kiate kinautolu ʻoku māʻoniʻoni.
22 He whakarerenga iho ta te tangata pai mo nga tamariki a nga tamariki; kei te rongoa mo te tangata tika nga taonga o te tangata hara.
ʻOku tuku ʻae tofiʻa ʻe he tangata angalelei ki he fānau ʻa ʻene fānau: ka ko e koloa ʻae angahala kuo tānaki maʻa e kakai angatonu.
23 He nui te kai kei te ngakinga a nga rawakore; tera ia te mea e ngaro ana i te kore o te tikanga pai.
ʻOku ai ʻae meʻakai lahi ʻi he faʻa keli ʻae masiva: ka ʻoku ai ʻoku maumauʻi ko e meʻa ʻi he masiva poto.
24 Ko te tangata e kaiponu ana i tana whiu, e kino ana ia ki tana tama; ko te tangata ia e aroha ana ki a ia, ka papaki wawe i a ia.
Ko ia ʻoku ne taʻofi ʻene meʻa kinikinisi ʻoku ne fehiʻa ki hono foha: ka ko ia ʻoku ʻofa ki ai ʻoku ne tautea ia ʻoka ʻaonga ke fai.
25 Kai ana te tangata tika, makona ana tona wairua; ka hapa ia te kopu o te tangata kino.
ʻOku kai ʻe he māʻoniʻoni ke fakamākona hono laumālie: ka ʻe fiekaia ʻae kete ʻoe angahala.
