Proverbs 8
1 Whether wisdom crieth not ofte; and prudence yyueth his vois?
Palunghahaih mah kami to kawk ai maw? Panoekhaih mah doeh tha hoi lokthui ai maw?
2 In souereyneste and hiy coppis, aboue the weie, in the myddis of pathis,
Anih loe hmuensang hoi lamkrung taengah angdoet.
3 and it stondith bisidis the yate of the citee, in thilke closyngis, and spekith, and seith, A!
Anih loe vangpui thung akunhaih khongkha taeng, thoknawk taengah angdoet moe, tha hoi a hangh.
4 ye men, Y crie ofte to you; and my vois is to the sones of men.
Aw kahing kaminawk, kang kawk o; kaminawk hanah lok ka thuih pae.
5 Litle children, vndirstonde ye wisdom; and ye vnwise men, `perseyue wisdom.
Aw poekhaih tawn ai kami rumramnawk, palunghahaih to panoek oh; Aw amthu kaminawk, panoekhaih palungthin to tawn oh.
6 Here ye, for Y schal speke of grete thingis; and my lippis schulen be openyd, to preche riytful thingis.
Tahngai oh, hmuen kahoih kang thuih o han; toenghaih lok to kang thuih o han.
7 My throte schal bithenke treuthe; and my lippis schulen curse a wickid man.
Ka pakha mah loktang lok to thui ueloe, ka pahni mah sethaih to panuet tih.
8 My wordis ben iust; no schrewid thing, nether weiward is in tho.
Ka pakha pong ih loknawk boih loe toeng, angkawnh moe, amsoem ai lok maeto doeh om ai.
9 `My wordis ben riytful to hem that vndurstonden; and ben euene to hem that fynden kunnyng.
Thaikop kami hanah loe hmuennawk boih to zoi, palunghahaih pakrong kami han loe toenghaih ah oh.
10 Take ye my chastisyng, and not money; chese ye teching more than tresour.
Sumkanglung pongah loe ka thuitaekhaih hae talawk ah loe, sui pongah loe palunghahaih to qoi ah.
11 For wisdom is betere than alle richessis moost preciouse; and al desirable thing mai not be comparisound therto.
Atho kana thlung kathim pongah loe palunghahaih to hoih kue, to loe koeh ih hmuennawk boih hoiah patah thai ai.
12 Y, wisdom, dwelle in counsel; and Y am among lernyd thouytis.
Ka palunghahaih loe acoehaih hoiah amraep pongah, palunghahaih hoi panoekhaih to ohsak.
13 The drede of the Lord hatith yuel; Y curse boost, and pride, and a schrewid weie, and a double tungid mouth.
Kahoih ai hmuen zithaih loe, Angraeng zithaih ah oh; amoekhaih, poeksanghaih, sethaih loklam hoi lok kangkoiah thuihaih to ka hnukma.
14 Counseil is myn, and equyte `is myn; prudence is myn, and strengthe `is myn.
Poek kahoih paekhaih hoi palunghahaih loe kai ih ni; kai loe panoekhaih hoi sakthaihaih tha to ka tawnh.
15 Kyngis regnen bi me; and the makeris of lawis demen iust thingis bi me.
Siangpahrangnawk loe kai rang hoiah ni angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnut o moe, katoeng patukhaih to angraengnawk mah pazui o.
16 Princis comaunden bi me; and myyti men demen riytfulnesse bi me.
Kai rang hoiah angraeng capanawk, angraengnawk hoi lokcaekkungnawk mah, long kaminawk to uk o.
17 I loue hem that louen me; and thei that waken eerli to me, schulen fynde me.
Kai palung kaminawk to ka palung, palung tang hoi kai pakrong kaminawk mah loe kai to ang hnuk o.
18 With me ben rychessis, and glorie; souereyn richessis, and riytfulnesse.
Angraenghaih hoi pakoehhaih loe kai khaeah oh; ue, atue kasawkah kakaan angraenghaih hoi toenghaih doeh oh.
19 My fruyt is betere than gold, and precyouse stoon; and my seedis ben betere than chosun siluer.
Kai ih athaih loe sui pongah hoih kue; ue, kaciim suitui pongah doeh hoih kue; kai khae hoi hakih hmuen loe, qoih het ih sumkanglung pongah doeh hoih kue.
20 Y go in the weies of riytfulnesse, in the myddis of pathis of doom;
Kai loe toenghaih hoi katoeng lokcaekhaih loklam um li ah ka caeh pongah,
21 that Y make riche hem that louen me, and that Y fille her tresouris.
kai palung kaminawk khaeah qawktoephaih to ka paek, nihcae hmuen patunghaih ahmuen to ka koisak han.
22 The Lord weldide me in the bigynnyng of hise weies; bifore that he made ony thing, at the bigynnyng.
Kai loe canghnii ih hmuennawk sah ai nathuem, a tok sak amtong tangsuek na hoi boeh ni Angraeng ih hmuen ah ka oh.
23 Fro with out bigynnyng Y was ordeined; and fro elde tymes, bifor that the erthe was maad.
Kai loe long om ai vop, long oh amtong tangsuek nathuem hoiah dungzan ah ang caksak boeh.
24 Depthis of watris weren not yit; and Y was conseyued thanne. The wellis of watris hadden not brokun out yit,
Tuipuinawk om o ai vop, vapui tui doeh long ai naah, kai hae ang tapen boeh.
25 and hillis stoden not togidere yit bi sad heuynesse; bifor litil hillis Y was born.
Maenawk om ai vop, maesomnawk doeh om ai naah, kai hae ang tapen boeh;
26 Yit he hadde not maad erthe; and floodis, and the herris of the world.
long hoi tawnawk to sah ai vop, long nui ih maiphu doeh sah ai naah, kai hae ang tapen boeh.
27 Whanne he made redi heuenes, Y was present; whanne he cumpasside the depthis of watris bi certeyn lawe and cumpas.
Vannawk to sak moe, tuipuinawk hmaa ah kaom hmuennawk to a sak nathuem,
28 Whanne he made stidfast the eir aboue; and weiede the wellis of watris.
van ranui ih tamainawk to a sak moe, tuipui thung ih tuinawk to thacaksak nathuem;
29 Whanne he cumpasside to the see his marke; and settide lawe to watris, that tho schulden not passe her coostis. Whanne he peiside the foundementis of erthe;
a paek ih lok to tui mah poeng thai han ai ah, long angdoethaih ahmuen a sak naah kai ka oh boeh:
30 Y was making alle thingis with him. And Y delitide bi alle daies, and pleiede bifore hym in al tyme,
to naah kai loe anih hoi nawnto qoeng tahang capa baktiah, anih taengah ka oh; ni thokkruek anih anghoehaih ah ka oh; a hmaa ah anghoehaih hoiah ka koi poe;
31 and Y pleiede in the world; and my delices ben to be with the sones of men.
a sak ih long nuiah anghoehaih ka tawnh moe, kami capanawk nuiah doeh oephaih ka tawnh.
32 Now therfor, sones, here ye me; blessid ben thei that kepen my weies.
To pongah Aw ka caanawk, ka lok hae tahngai oh; kai ih loklam pazui kaminawk loe tahamhoih o.
33 Here ye teching, and be ye wise men; and nile ye caste it awei.
Kang thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai oh, pahnawt o hmah loe, palungha oh.
34 Blessid is the man that herith me, and that wakith at my yatis al dai; and kepith at the postis of my dore.
Ka lok tahngaih moe, ni thokkruek kai ih khongkhanawk to toep pacoengah, kai ih thok tungnawk taengah zing kami loe, tahamhoih.
35 He that fyndith me, schal fynde lijf; and schal drawe helthe of the Lord.
Kai hnu kami loe hinghaih to hnuk; Angraeng anghoehaih to a hnuk.
36 But he that synneth ayens me, schal hurte his soule; alle that haten me, louen deeth.
Toe ka hmaa ah zaehaih sah kami loe, a hinghaih paro kami ah oh; kai hnuma kaminawk boih loe, duekhaih palung kami ah ni oh o.
