Mmebusɛm 30
1 Yake babarima Agur nsɛm a ɔkae a ɛyɛ nkuranhyɛ: Saa ɔbarima yi ka kyerɛɛ Itiel ne Ukal se:
HE mau wahi olelo a Agura ke keiki a Iake. He wanana; na ke kanaka i hoike mai ia Itiela; ia Itiela laua me Ukala.
2 “Me na minnim hwee koraa wɔ nnipa mu, minni onipa ntease.
Owau ka mea hupo loa o na kanaka, Aole o'u wahi noonoo kanaka.
3 Minsuaa nyansa, na minni Ɔkronkronni no ho nimdeɛ nso.
Aole i loaa ia u ka naauao, Aole hoi o'u ike i ka Mea hemolele.
4 Hena na waforo akɔ ɔsoro na wasian aba fam? Hena na wabɔ mframa boa wɔ ne nsam? Hena na ɔde nʼatade abɔ nsu boa? Hena na ɔbɔɔ asase tamaa yi? Ne din de dɛn, na ne babarima nso din de dɛn? Sɛ wunim a ka kyerɛ me!
Owai ka mea i pii ae i ka lani, a i iho mai hoi? Owai ka mea i hooiliili i ka makani ma kona lima? Owai ka mea i hoopaa i na wai ma kona aahu? Owai ka mea i hoonoho i na welelau a pau o ka honua? Owai hoi kona inoa, owai ka inoa o kana keiki? E hoike mai paha oe.
5 “Onyankopɔn asɛm biara yɛ nokware; ɔyɛ nkatabo ma wɔn a woguan toa no.
Pau loa na huaolelo a ke Akua i ka maemae; Oia ka palekaua i ka poe paulele aku ia ia.
6 Mfa biribi nka nʼasɛm ho, anyɛ saa a ɔbɛka wʼanim ama woayɛ ɔtorofo.
Mai hui ae oe i kekahi mea me kana mau huaolelo, O ao mai oia ia oe, a e lilo oe i mea wahahee.
7 “Awurade, nneɛma abien na mehwehwɛ afi wo nkyɛn; mfa nkame me ansa na mawu:
Elua mau mea a'u i noi aku ai ia oe, Mai aua oe mamua o ko'u make ana.
8 ma me ne atoro ne nnaadaasɛm ntam nware koraa; mma mennyɛ ohiani anaa ɔdefo; nanso ma me me daa aduan nkutoo.
O ka lapuwale, a o ka wahahee, E hookaawale ae mai o'u aku nei; Mai haawi mai ia'u i ka ilihune, aole hoi i ka waiwai; E hanai mai ia'u i ka ai ku pono no'u;
9 Anyɛ saa a, ebia minya me ho pii a ɛbɛma mapa wo na maka se, ‘Hena ne Awurade?’ Anaa mɛyɛ ohiani na mabɔ korɔn, na ama magu me Nyankopɔn din ho fi.
O hookuku ai au, a hoole aku hoi, Me ka i ana, Owai la o Iehova? O ilihune hoi au a aihue iho, A hoohiki ino i ka inoa o ko'u Akua.
10 “Nsɛe ɔsomfo din nkyerɛ ne wura; sɛ woyɛ saa a, ɔbɛdome wo na wubetua so ka.
Mai hoopii oe i ke kauwa imua o kona haku, O hooino mai oia ia oe, a e lilo oe i lawehala.
11 “Nnipa bi dome wɔn agyanom, na wonhyira wɔn nanom nso;
O kekahi hanauna, hoino no i ka makuakane, Aole hoi i hoomaikai i ka makuwahine.
12 Wɔn a wɔteɛ wɔ wɔn ankasa ani so nanso wɔnhohoroo wɔn ho fi no;
O kekahi hanauna hoi, he maemae ia i ko lakou maka iho, Aole hoi i holoiia ka paumaele.
13 wɔn a wɔn ani tra ntɔn, na wobu animtiaa;
O kekahi hanauna, hookano loa na maka o lakou! Hookiekie hoi na lihilihi o lakou.
14 wɔn a wɔn se yɛ afoa na asekan hyehyɛ wɔn abogye mu wɔn na wɔbɛtɔre ahiafo ase afi asase so, na wɔayi ahiafo afi adesamma mu.
O kekahi hanauna, he mau pahikaua ko lakou niho, He mau pahi hoi ko lakou mau kui. E ai ana i ka poe ilihune mai ka honua aku, A o ka poe nele hoi iwaena o na kanaka.
15 “Amemem wɔ mmabea baanu a wɔteɛ mu se, ‘Fa ma! Fa ma!’ “Nneɛma abiɛsa na ɛmmee da anan na ɛnka da se, ‘Eye!’
He mau kaikamahine elua ka ka omokoko, E i ana, E ho mai, e ho mai, ea. Akolu no mea piha ole, Eha hoi, aole e olelo mai, Ua ana:
O ka lua, o ka opu pa; A o ka honua i mauu ole i ka wai; A o ke ahi, aole ana olelo mai, Ua nui. (Sheol h7585)
17 “Ani a eyi agya ahi, na ebu ɛna animtiaa no, obon mu kwaakwaadabi betutu, na apete abedi.
O ka maka i hoowahawaha i kona makuakane, A hoole hoi aole e malama i kona makuwahine, E kiko iho ka poe koraka o ke awawa ia mea, A e ai iho no ka poe aito opiopio.
18 “Nneɛma abiɛsa na ɛyɛ me nwonwa, anan na mente ase:
Ekolu mau mea kupanaha loa ia'u, Eha hoi, aole au i ike iho.
19 Ɔkwan a ɔkɔre nam so wɔ wim, sɛnea ɔwɔ nantew ɔbotan so, ɔkwan a hyɛn nam so wɔ po tamaa so, ne sɛnea ɔbarima dɔ ababaa.
O ka aoao o ka aito ma ka lewa; O ka aoao o ka nahesa maluna o ka pohaku; O ka aoao o ka moku iwaena o ka moana; A o ka aoao o ke kanaka me ka wahine puupaa.
20 “Ɔbea ɔwaresɛefo kwan ni: Odidi, ɔpepa nʼano na ɔka se, ‘Menyɛɛ mfomso biara.’
Peneia ka aoao o ka wahine hookamakama, Ai iho la oia a holoi i kona nuku, A olelo ae, Aole au i hana hewa.
21 “Nneɛma abiɛsa na ɛma asase wosow, anan na asase ntumi nnyina ano:
Ekolu mau mea e haunaele ai ka honua, Eha hoi e hiki ole ai ke hoomanawanui:
22 akoa a wabɛyɛ ɔhene, ɔkwasea a wadidi amee,
O ke kauwa ke lilo i alii; O ka mea lapuwale ke maona i ka ai;
23 ɔbea a wɔmpɛ no na waware, afenaa a otu nʼawuraa tena nʼanan mu.
O ka wahine huhu wale ke mareia oia; A o ke kauwawahine he hooilina o kona hakuwahine.
24 “Nneɛma nketenkete anan na ɛwɔ asase so, nanso wɔyɛ anyansafo ankasa:
Eha mau mea liilii loa ma ka honua nei, A ua akamai loa no nae:
25 Ntɛtea yɛ abɔde nketewa a wonni ahoɔden, nanso wɔboaboa wɔn aduan ano ahuhuru bere mu;
O ka poe anonanona, he poe ikaika ole lakou, Hoomakaukau no nae i ke kau i ka lakou ai;
26 Nkukuban yɛ abɔde a wonni ahoɔden, nanso wɔyɛ wɔn afi wɔ abotan mu,
O ka poe rabita, he poe nawaliwali lakou, Ma na pohaku hoi i hana'i i ko lakou mau hale;
27 mmoadabi nni ɔhene, nanso wɔsa so akuwakuw, kɔ wɔn anim;
O ka poe uhini, aole o lakou alii, Hele papa no hoi lakou.
28 wotumi de nsa kyere ɔketew, nanso wohu no abirɛmpɔn ahemfi.
O ka moo, lalau no oia me kona mau lima, Aia no ia ma na hale hanohano o ke alii.
29 “Nneɛma abiɛsa na wɔwɔ abirɛmpɔnnantew, anan na wɔkeka wɔn ho te sɛ abirɛmpɔn:
Ekolu mau mea, i maikai ka hele ana, Eha hoi i maikai ke hele ae.
30 gyata, mmoadoma hene a, biribiara mmɔ no hu;
O ka liona ka mea ikaika loa o na holoholona, Aole hoi oia e huli ae mai ke alo aku o lakou a pau;
31 akokɔnini a ɔretutu taataa, ɔpapo, ne ɔhene a nʼasraafo atwa no ho ahyia.
O ka ilio hahai, a o ke kao kane hoi, A o ke alii, hiki ole ke ku e ia ia.
32 “Sɛ woayɛ ɔkwasea ama wo ho so, anaa woadwene bɔne a, ma wʼani nwu na mua wʼano!
Ina he lapuwale oe i kou hookiekie ana, Ina paha he manao ino kou, e kau ana ka lima ma ka waha.
33 Sɛnea wɔka nufusu nu mu a srade fi mu ba, na wokyinkyim hwene a etu mogya no, saa ara na abufuw de akasakasa ba.”
Ma ka hooluliluli ana i ka waiu e puka mai ai ka bata, Ma ka uwi ana i ka ihu e kahe mai ai ke koko; A ma ka hooioi ana i ka huhu e puka mai ai hoi ka hakaka.
