< Proverbs 30 >

1 The words of Agur the son of Jakeh; the prophecy uttered by the man unto Ithiel, [even] unto Ithiel and Ucal:
Dagiti pagsasao ni Agur nga anak a lalaki ni Jakeh- ti mensahe manipud iti Dios: Imbutaktak daytoy a lalaki kenni Ithiel, kada Ithiel ken Ucal:
2 Truly I am more stupid than any one; and I have not a man's intelligence.
Pudno nga ad-adda a kaslaak iti ayup ngem iti siasinoman a tao, ken awan ti pannakaawatko a kas iti tao.
3 I have neither learned wisdom, nor have I the knowledge of the Holy.
Saanko a naadal ti kinasirib, wenno addaanak iti pannakaamo maipapan iti Nasantoan.
4 Who hath ascended up into the heavens, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in a mantle? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest?
Siasino ti nagpangato iti langit ket bimmaba? Siasino ti nangurnong iti angin babaen kadagiti imana? Siasino ti nangurnong kadagiti danum babaen iti pagan-anayna? Siasino ti nangipatakder kadagiti amin a pungto ti daga? Ania ti naganna, ken ania ti nagan ti anakna? Sigurado nga ammoyo!
5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
Napadasen ti amin a sasao ti Dios, kalasag isuna kadagiti agkamkamang kenkuana.
6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
Saanmo a nayonan dagiti sasaona, di la ket tubngarennaka, ket mapaneknekankanto nga ulbod.
7 Two things do I ask of thee; deny me [them] not before I die:
Dua a banag ti dawatek kenka, saanmo ida nga ipaidam kaniak sakbay a matayak:
8 Remove far from me vanity and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the bread of my daily need:
Iyadayom kaniak ti kinaubbaw ken kinaulbod. Saanmo nga ited kaniak ti kinapanglaw wenno kinabaknang, itedmo laeng iti taraon a kasapulak.
9 lest I be full and deny [thee], and say, Who is Jehovah? or lest I be poor and steal, and outrage the name of my God.
Ta no addaanak ti adu unay, ilibakkanto ken ibagak a, “Siasino ni Yahweh?” Wenno no pumanglawak, agtakawakto ket ibabainkonto ti nagan ti Diosko.
10 Speak not too much about a servant to his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be held guilty.
Saanmo a dadaelen ti dayaw ti tagabu iti sangoanan ti amona, di la ket ilunodnaka ket agbiddutka.
11 There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother;
Ti maysa a henerasion a mangilunod iti amada ken saanda a bendisionan ti inada,
12 there is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, yet are not washed from their filthiness;
dayta ti henerasion a nadalus kadagiti bukodda a mata, ngem saanda a nadalusan manipud kadagiti rugitda.
13 there is a generation, — how lofty are their eyes, how their eyelids are lifted up!
Dayta ti henerasion—anian a nagtangsit dagiti matada ken nakangato dagiti kalub ti matada! —
14 — a generation whose teeth are swords, and their jaw-teeth knives, to devour the afflicted from off the earth, and the needy from [among] men.
isuda ti henerasion a kasla kampilan dagiti ngipenda, ken kampit dagiti pangalda, tapno sikbabenda dagiti napanglaw iti daga ken dagiti agkasapulan manipud iti sangkataoan.
15 The leech hath two daughters: Give, give. There are three [things] never satisfied; four which say not, It is enough:
Adda dua nga annak a babai ti alinta? “Ikkannak ken ikkannak,” ti sangitda. Adda tallo a banag a saan pulos a mapmapnek, uppat a saan pulos a mangibaga iti “Uston”:
16 Sheol, and the barren womb; the earth which is not filled with water, and the fire which saith not, It is enough. (Sheol h7585)
Lubong dagiti natay, ti aanakan a saan a makaipaay iti anak, ti daga a mawaw iti danum ken ti apuy a saan pulos a mangibaga iti “Uston.” (Sheol h7585)
17 The eye that mocketh at a father, and despiseth to obey a mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it.
Ti mata a mang-uyaw iti ama, ken ti mang-uyaw iti panagtulnog iti ina, sippetento nga iruar dagiti uwak iti tanap dagiti matana, ket kanento isuna dagiti buitre.
18 There are three [things] too wonderful for me, and four that I know not:
Adda tallo a nakaskasdaaw unay para kaniak, uppat a saanko a maawatan:
19 The way of an eagle in the heavens, the way of a serpent upon a rock, the way of a ship in the midst of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid.
ti dalan ti agila iti langit; ti dalan ti uleg iti bato; ti dalan ti bangka iti tengnga ti baybay; ken ti wagas ti lalaki iti balasang.
20 Such is the way of an adulterous woman: she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness.
Daytoy ti wagas ti makikamkammalala—mangan isuna sana punasan ti ngiwatna ken ibagana nga “Awan ti nagbasolak”
21 Under three [things] the earth is disquieted, and under four it cannot bear up:
Kadagiti tallo a banag agkintayeg ti daga, ti maikauppat ti saanna a maibturan:
22 Under a servant when he reigneth, and a churl when he is filled with meat;
ti tagabu nga agbalin nga ari; no mabsog iti taraon ti maag;
23 under an odious [woman] when she is married, and a handmaid when she is heir to her mistress.
no makiassawa ti babai a mabusbusor, ken no sublaten ti babaonen ti saad ti amona a babai.
24 There are four [things] little upon the earth, and they are exceeding wise:
Uppat a banbanag iti daga ket babassit ngem nasisiribda unay:
25 The ants, a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer;
dagiti kuton ket parsua a saan a nabileg, ngem agisagsaganada kadagiti taraonda iti kalgaw;
26 the rock-badgers are but a feeble folk, yet they make their house in the cliff;
dagiti koneho ket saan a napigsa a parsua, ngem ar-aramidenda dagiti pagtaenganda kadagiti batbato.
27 the locusts have no king, yet they go forth all of them by bands;
Dagiti dudon ket awan ti arida, ngem nakalinyada amin nga agmartia.
28 thou takest hold of the lizard with the hands, yet is she in kings' palaces.
Kadagiti alutiit, maiggamam daytoy kadagiti imam, ngem masarakan ida kadagiti palasio dagiti ari.
29 There are three [things] which have a stately step, and four are comely in going:
Adda tallo a nalimbong iti addangda, uppat a nalimbong iti pannagnada:
30 The lion, mighty among beasts, which turneth not away for any;
ti leon, ti kapigsaan kadagiti amin nga atap nga ayup- saan a tumallikud daytoy iti aniaman;
31 a [horse] girt in the loins; or the he-goat; and a king, against whom none can rise up.
maysa a nataer a kawitan; maysa a kalding, ken maysa nga ari nga adda iti abayna dagiti soldadona.
32 If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast thought evil, [lay] the hand upon thy mouth.
No nagbalinka a maag, a mangidaydayaw iti bagim, wenno no agpangpanggepka iti dakes- iyaputmo ti imam iti ngiwatmo.
33 For the pressing of milk bringeth forth butter, and the pressing of the nose bringeth forth blood; and the pressing of anger bringeth forth strife.
Kas iti panangbatil iti gatas a mangpatpataud iti mantikilya, ken kas iti panagdara ti agong ti maysa a tao no matiritir daytoy, kastoy met laeng ti mapasamak iti unget a mangpataud ti apa.
