Proverbs 22

1 A good name is better than many riches. And good esteem is above silver and gold.

Vahe'mo'ma knare kagi'ma kami'zamo'a, rama'a fenoma ante'zana agatere'ne. Hagi vahe'mo'ma kagri'ma kavesigante zamo'a, goline silvanena agatere'ne.

2 The rich and poor have met one another. The Lord is the maker of them both.

Feno vahe'ene amunte omane vahe'enena, Ra Anumzamo ana tarega vahera tro huzanantege'ne mani'na'e.

3 The clever saw evil and hid himself. The innocent continued on and was afflicted with damage.

Antahi ankere antahi'zane vahe'mo'a, hazenke zama ne-esigeno'a negeno maniganesigeno agateregahianagi, knare antahizama omane vahe'mo'a, hazenkema fore'ma nehanigeno'a, negeno vuno ana hazenkezana erino knazampina manigahie.

4 The end of moderation is the fear of the Lord, riches and glory and life.

Agra'a avufga anteramino nemanino, Ra Anumzamofonku'ma koro hunteno, agorga'ama mani'zamo'a, rama'a fenoza nentesankeno kagia husga nehanagenka, za'za kna manigahane.

5 Weapons and swords are on the way of the perverse. But he who guards his own soul withdraws far from them.

Akrahe krahe avu'ava ene vahe'ma nevaza kampina, ave'ave zane vahe'ma azeri kukone me'ne. Hianagi iza'o agra'ama kegavama himo'a afete nemanie.

6 The proverb is: A youth is close to his way; even when he is old, he will not withdraw from it.

Mofavreka'a knare kante'ma vu'za rempi humigeno knare kante nevuno, rama hanuno'a, ana avu'avara atreno rukrehe osino.

7 The rich rule over the poor. And the borrower is servant to the lender.

Feno vahe'mo'za zamunte omne vahera, kegava hunezamantaze. Hagi zagoma nofi'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za zago'ama nofi'ma haza ne'mofo kazokazo eri'za vahe nemanize.

8 Whoever sows iniquity will reap evils, and by the rod of his own wrath he will be consumed.

Kefozama krinenimo'a, henka ne'zama'a hazenke'za kafigahie. Hagi vahe'ma zamazeri havizama nehia himamu'amo'a, vagaregahie.

9 Whoever is inclined to mercy shall be blessed, for from his bread he has given to the poor. Whoever gives gifts will acquire victory and honor. But he carries away the soul of the receiver.

Iza'o zamunte'ma omane naga'ma muse zampinti'ma ne'zama zamisia vahera, Ra Anumzamo'a asomu huzamantegahie.

10 Cast out the one who ridicules, and conflict will go out with him, and accusations and insults will cease.

Kehu haviza hu vahera zamahe anati atrenkeno, vahe'ma huhavizama hu'zane, ha'ma hu'zane, fragema hu'zana vagareno.

11 Whoever loves cleanness of heart, because of the grace of his lips, will have the king as his friend.

Agu'amo'ma agru nehanigeno, fru kema huzanku avenesisimo'a, kini ne'mofo rone'a manigahie.

12 The eyes of the Lord watch over knowledge. And the words of the iniquitous are supplanted.

Ra Anumzamo'a antahi'zama erizante avu'a anteno kegava nehianagi, hazenke vahe'mofo kea erinetre.

13 The lazy one says: “There is a lion outside. I might be slain in the midst of the streets.”

Feru vahe'mo'a amanage nehie, megi'a laioni mani'neankino, vanuana nahe frigahie huno nehie.

14 The mouth of a foreign woman is a deep pit; the Lord was angry with him who will fall into it.

Savri a'mofo agipinti'ma ne-ea kemo'a, muri kankna hu'ne, izano Ra Anumzamo'ma arimpa hentesimo'a, ana muri kampi tamigahie.

15 Foolishness has been bound to the heart of a child, and a rod of discipline shall cause it to flee.

Mofavremofo agu'afina negi'nagi avu'avazamo avitegahianagi, kanoma amino azeri fatgoma hu'zamo ana avu'ava zampintira azeri arukrahe hugahie.

16 Whoever slanders the poor, so as to augment his own riches, will give it away to one who is richer, and will be in need.

Fenozami mago'ane eri rama'a hunaku'ma zamunte omane vahe kna zamiza zamazeri haviza nehaza vahe'ene, feno vahe'ma musezama nezamiza vahe'mokizmia, zamuntera omanegahie.

17 Incline your ear, and listen to the words of the wise. Then apply your heart to my doctrine.

Knare antahi'zane vahe'mofo kere kagesa antenka antahise nehunka, nagrama rempima hugamisuaza huo.

18 It shall be beautiful to you, if you preserve it in your inner self, and it shall overflow from your lips,

Na'ankure anankemo'a knare hu'neankinka kagu'afi erintenankeno ana kemo'a, kagitera me'ne'na kea hutere hugahane.

19 so that your confidence may be in the Lord. Therefore, I also have revealed it to you this day.

Nagra menina rempi hunegamugu, nentahinka Ra Anumzamofonte kagranena kamentinti huo.

20 Behold, I have written it for you in three ways, and with meditations and knowledge,

Nagra 30'a knare kegaga krentegantenofina, kavumro kene, antahiza eri zamofo naneke kregaminoankinka,

21 so that I might reveal to you, firmly and with words of truth, in order to respond about these things to those who sent you.

ama ana kereti tamage kea rempi hunka antahinenka, iza'o tamage kegu'ma hugantenigenka e'nesamofona fatgo'are kenona ome asamigahane.

22 Do not act with violence toward the pauper because he is poor. And do not weary the needy at the gate.

Zamunte omane vahe'mokizmi zana ohanareho, na'ankure zamagra zamunte omane vahe mani'naze. Hagi zamunte omanesige'zama atupama hu'nesaza vahera, keagarera zamavarenteta zamazeri havizana osiho.

23 For the Lord will judge his case, and he will pierce those who have pierced his soul.

Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a, zamunte omane vahera zamahokeno zamazeri havizama hanaza vahe'mokizmia, zamazeri haviza hugahie.

24 Do not be willing to be a friend to an angry man, and do not walk with a furious man,

Arimpa hevava vahera rone huonto, ame huno rimpahe vahe'enena tagro oto,

25 lest perhaps you learn his ways, and take up a stumbling block to your soul.

ru ana vahe zamavu'zamava enerisankeno, kukomo kazeriankna huno kagu'a kazeri haviza hugahie.

26 Do not be willing to be with those who certify with their hands, and who offer themselves as a guarantee against debts.

Mago vahera huvempa hunka mago'za hugantegahue osuo. Hagi ru vahe'mo'ma nofi'ma hu'nesigenka, ana nofi'ma hu'nea zana nagra vakanentegahue hunka osuo.

27 For if you do not have the means to restore, what reason should there be for him to take the covering from your bed?

Anama nofi'ma hu'nesaza zama apa osesanke'za miko zanka'ane, tafe'ma masinkama nemasesana zanena eri vagaregahaze.

28 Do not cross beyond the ancient limits that your fathers have set.

Tamagehe'mo'za ko'ma re'nenaza kanagi kana, akasi kantutretma rumofo mopa eri havia osiho.

29 Have you seen a man swift in his work? He shall stand in the sight of kings, and not before those who are disreputable.

Eri'zama eri antahi'zama eri'nea ne'mofo eri'zana negano? Agra kini vahe'mokizmi eri'za vahe nemanino, agi omane vahe'mofo eri'za vahera omanigahie.
