Whakatauki 18
1 Ko te tangata tu ke, e whai ana i ta tona ake hiahia, e ngangau ana ki nga whakaaro totika katoa.
He that wole go a wei fro a frend, sekith occasiouns; in al tyme he schal be dispisable.
2 Kahore o te whakaarokore ahuareka ki te matauranga; engari kia whakakitea e ia tona ngakau.
A fool resseyueth not the wordis of prudence; `no but thou seie tho thingis, that ben turned in his herte.
3 I te taenga mai o te tangata kino ka tae mai ano te whakahawea, me te tawai hei hoa mo te whakama.
A wickid man, whanne he cometh in to depthe of synnes, dispisith; but sclaundre and schenschipe sueth hym.
4 He wai hohonu nga kupu a te mangai o te tangata; he awa e rere ana te puna o te whakaaro nui.
Deep watir is the wordis of the mouth of a man; and a stronde fletinge ouer is the welle of wisdom.
5 Ehara i te mea pai te whakapai ki te kanohi o te tangata kino, te whakapeau ke ranei i ta te tangata tika ina whakawa.
It is not good to take the persoone of a wickid man in doom, that thou bowe awei fro the treuthe of dom.
6 E uru ana nga ngutu o te whakaarokore ki te totohe, e karanga ana tona mangai ki nga whiu.
The lippis of a fool medlen hem silf with chidyngis; and his mouth excitith stryues.
7 Hei hunga ano mona te mangai o te whakaarokore; a ko ona ngutu hei rore mo tona wairua.
The mouth of a fool is defoulyng of hym; and hise lippis ben the fallynge of his soule.
8 Ano he kai reka nga kupu a te kawe korero; tae tonu iho ki nga wahi o roto rawa o te kopu.
The wordis of a double tungid man ben as symple; and tho comen `til to the ynnere thingis of the wombe. Drede castith doun a slowe man; forsothe the soulis of men turned in to wymmens condicioun schulen haue hungur.
9 Ko te tangata ano hoki e mangere ana ki tana mahi, hei teina ia ki te tangata maumau.
He that is neisch, and vnstidfast in his werk, is the brother of a man distriynge hise werkis.
10 Hei pourewa kaha te ingoa o Ihowa; rere ana te tangata tika ki reira, a ora ake.
A strongeste tour is the name of the Lord; a iust man renneth to hym, and schal be enhaunsid.
11 Ko nga rawa o te tangata taonga hei pa kaha mona, hei pa tiketike ki tona whakaaro.
The catel of a riche man is the citee of his strengthe; and as a stronge wal cumpassinge hym.
12 I mua ake o te whakangaromanga ka whakakake te ngakau o te tangata; i mua ake ano hoki o te honore ko te ngakau papaku.
The herte of man is enhaunsid, bifor that it be brokun; and it is maad meke, bifore that it be glorified.
13 Ko te tangata e whakahoki kupu ana i te mea kahore ano ia i rongo noa, he mahi wairangi tera nana, he hanga whakama.
He that answerith bifore that he herith, shewith hym silf to be a fool; and worthi of schenschipe.
14 E whakamanawanui te wairua o te tangata ki tona mate; tena ko te wairua maru, ko wai e kaha ki tera?
The spirit of a man susteyneth his feblenesse; but who may susteyne a spirit liyt to be wrooth?
15 Ka whiwhi te ngakau o te tangata matau ki te mohio; e rapu ana hoki te taringa o nga whakaaro nui ki te mohio.
The herte of a prudent man schal holde stidfastli kunnyng; and the eere of wise men sekith techyng.
16 Ma te mea tuku noa a te tangata ka watea ai he wahi mona, ka kawea hoki ia e tera ki te aroaro o nga tangata nunui.
The yift of a man alargith his weie; and makith space to hym bifore princes.
17 Ko te tangata nana te kupu tuatahi i te whakawa me te mea kei a ia te tika; na ka haere mai tona hoa, kei te rapu i te tikanga o tana.
A iust man is the first accusere of hym silf; his frend cometh, and schal serche hym.
18 Ma te rota e mutu ai nga tautohe, a ko tera hei tauarai i waenganui o te hunga kaha.
Lot ceessith ayenseiyngis; and demeth also among miyti men.
19 Ko te tuakana, teina ranei, i whakatakariritia, pakeke atu i te pa kaha: a ko aua tu ngangare me he tutaki tatau no te whare rangatira.
A brother that is helpid of a brothir, is as a stidfast citee; and domes ben as the barris of citees.
20 Ka ki te kopu o te tangata i nga hua o tona mangai, ka makona ia i nga hua o ona ngutu.
A mannus wombe schal be fillid of the fruit of his mouth; and the seedis of hise lippis schulen fille hym.
21 Ko te mate, ko te ora kei te arero: ko te hunga e aroha ana ki tera ka kai i ona hua.
Deth and lijf ben in the werkis of tunge; thei that louen it, schulen ete the fruytis therof.
22 Ko te tangata kua kite i te wahine mana, kua kite i te mea pai, kua whiwhi hoki ki ta Ihowa whakapai.
He that fyndith a good womman, fyndith a good thing; and of the Lord he schal drawe vp myrthe. He that puttith a wey a good womman, puttith awei a good thing; but he that holdith auowtresse, is a fool and vnwijs.
23 He inoi ta te rawakore hanga; he taikaha ia te whakahoki a te tangata taonga.
A pore man schal speke with bisechingis; and a riche man schal speke sterneli.
24 Ko te tangata tini nga hoa aroha e whai ana i te he mona; tera ano ia te hoa aroha, nui atu i to te tuakana, i to te teina, tona piri mai.
A man freendli to felouschipe schal more be a frend, than a brothir.
