Whakatauki 20
1 Ko ta te waina he whakahi, ko ta te wai kaha he ngangau: a, ko te hunga katoa e whakapohehetia ana e tera, kahore o ratou whakaaro nui.
Wiyn is a letcherouse thing and drunkenesse is ful of noise; who euere delitith in these, schal not be wijs.
2 Ano he raiona e hamama ana te wehi o te kingi: ko te tangata e whakaoho ana i a ia kia riri, e hara ana ki tona wairua ake.
As the roryng of a lioun, so and the drede of the kyng; he that territh hym to ire, synneth ayens his owne lijf.
3 He whakahonore mo te tangata te noho watea mai i te ngangare: engari ko nga wairangi he kowhetewhete tonu.
It is onour to a man that departith hym silf fro stryuyngis; but fonned men ben medlid with dispisyngis.
4 Kahore te mangere e parau, he mea ki te hotoke; no reira ka pakiki kai mana i te kotinga witi, a kahore e whiwhi.
A slow man nolde ere for coold; therfor he schal begge in somer, and me schal not yyue to hym.
5 He wai hohonu te whakaaro i roto i te ngakau o te tangata; e utuhia ano ia e te tangata matau.
As deep watir, so counsel is in the herte of a man; but a wijs man schal drawe it out.
6 Ko ta te tini o te tangata he kauwhau i tona atawhai ake; ko wai ia e kite i te tangata pono?
Many men ben clepid merciful; but who schal fynde a feithful man?
7 Ko te tangata tika, e haere ana i runga i tona tapatahi, ka manaakitia ana tamariki i muri i a ia.
Forsothe a iust man that goith in his simplenesse, schal leeue blessid sones aftir hym.
8 Ko te kingi e noho ana i runga i te torona whakawa, titaritaria ana e ona kanohi nga he katoa.
A king that sittith in the seete of doom, distrieth al yuel bi his lokyng.
9 Ko wai e mea, Kua ma i ahau toku ngakau, kua tahia atu oku hara?
Who may seie, Myn herte is clene; Y am clene of synne?
10 Ko nga pauna huhua, ko nga mehua huhua, he rite tahi taua rua, he mea whakarihariha anake ki a Ihowa.
A weiyte and a weiyte, a mesure and a mesure, euer eithir is abhomynable at God.
11 He tamariki nei ano ka mohiotia ki ana hanga, he ma ranei, he tika ranei tana mahi.
A child is vndurstondun bi hise studies, yf his werkis ben riytful and cleene.
12 Ko te taringa rongo, ko te kanohi titiro, na Ihowa raua ngatahi i hanga.
An eere heringe, and an iye seynge, God made euere eithir.
13 Kaua e matenuitia te moe, kei rawakoretia koe; titiro ou kanohi, a ka makona koe i te taro.
Nyle thou loue sleep, lest nedynesse oppresse thee; opene thin iyen, and be thou fillid with looues.
14 Ehara ehara, e ai ta te kaihoko: tona haerenga atu ia, kei te whakamanamana.
Ech biere seith, It is yuel, it is yuel; and whanne he hath go awey, thanne he schal haue glorie.
15 He koura tena me te tini o te rupi; engari he taonga utu nui nga ngutu o te matauranga.
Gold, and the multitude of iemmes, and a preciouse vessel, ben the lippis of kunnyng.
16 Tangohia te kakahu o te kaiwhakakapi mo te tangata ke; puritia hoki te tangata i taunahatia hei whakakapi mo nga tangata ke.
Take thou awei the cloth of hym, that was borewe of an othere man; and for straungeris take thou awei a wed fro hym.
17 He reka ki te tangata te taro o te teka; muri iho ka ki tona mangai i te kirikiri.
The breed of a leesing is sweet to a man; and aftirward his mouth schal be fillid with rikenyng.
18 Ma te runanga ka u ai nga whakaaro; kia pai hoki te ngarahu ina anga ki te whawhai.
Thouytis ben maad strong bi counselis; and bateils schulen be tretid bi gouernals.
19 Ko te tangata e kopikopiko ana ki te kawekawe korero, ka whakina e ia nga korero ngaro: na reira kaua e raweke atu ki te tangata ngutu hamama.
Be thou not medlid with him that schewith pryuetees, and goith gylefulli, and alargith hise lippis.
20 Ko te tangata e kanga ana i tona papa, i tona whaea, ka tineia tona rama i roto i te pouri kerekere.
The liyt of hym that cursith his fadir and modir, schal be quenchid in the myddis of derknessis.
21 I te timatanga e hohoro mai pea te taonga; e kore ia tona mutunga e whakapaingia.
Eritage to which me haastith in the bigynnyng, schal wante blessing in the laste tyme.
22 Kaua e mea, Ka utua e ahau te kino: taria ta Ihowa, a kei a ia he oranga mou.
Seie thou not, Y schal yelde yuel for yuel; abide thou the Lord, and he schal delyuere thee.
23 He mea whakarihariha ki a Ihowa nga taimaha rere ke; a e kore hoki te pauna tinihanga e pai.
Abhomynacioun at God is weiyte and weiyte; a gileful balaunce is not good.
24 Na Ihowa nga haereerenga o te tangata: na ma te aha te tangata ka matau ai ki tona ara?
The steppis of man ben dressid of the Lord; who forsothe of men mai vndurstonde his weie?
25 Hei rore ki te tangata te oho noa ake ki te mea, He tapu! a, i muri i nga ki taurangi, kia uiui.
Falling of man is to make auow to seyntis, and aftirward to withdrawe the vowis.
26 Ka titaritaria e te kingi whakaaro nui te hunga kino, a ka hurihia hoki e ia te wira patu witi ki runga ki a ratou.
A wijs kyng scaterith wickid men; and bowith a bouwe of victorie ouer hem.
27 He rama na Ihowa te manawa o te tangata, e rapu ana i nga mea katoa i roto rawa i te kopu.
The lanterne of the Lord is the spirit of man, that sekith out alle the priuetees of the wombe.
28 Hei kaitiaki mo te kingi te atawhai me te pono; e tautokona ake ana hoki tona torona e te atawhai.
Merci and treuthe kepen a kyng; and his trone is maad strong bi mekenesse.
29 Ko te kororia o nga taitama ko to ratou kaha: a, ko te ataahua o nga kaumatua ko te upoko hina.
The ful out ioiyng of yonge men is the strengthe of hem; and the dignyte of elde men is hoornesse.
30 E tahia atu ana te kino e nga karawarawa o te patunga; a e tae rawa ana nga whiu ki nga wahi o roto rawa o te kopu.
The wannesse of wounde schal wipe aweie yuels, and woundis in the priuyere thingis of the wombe.
