Whakatauki 21
1 Kei roto te ngakau o te kingi i te ringa o Ihowa ano he awa rerenga wai; e whakaangahia ana e ia ki nga wahi katoa e pai ai ia.
As departyngis of watris, so the herte of the kyng is in the power of the Lord; whidur euer he wole, he schal bowe it.
2 Ko nga ara katoa o te tangata, tika kau ki ona kanohi ake: ko Ihowa ia hei pauna i nga ngakau.
Ech weye of a man semeth riytful to hym silf; but the Lord peisith the hertis.
3 Ko te mahi i te tika, i te whakawa, ki ta Ihowa, pai atu i te patunga tapu.
To do merci and doom plesith more the Lord, than sacrifices doen.
4 He kanohi whakakake, he ngakau whakapehapeha, a ko te rama hoki o te hunga kino, he hara kau.
Enhaunsyng of iyen is alargyng of the herte; the lanterne of wickid men is synne.
5 Ko nga whakaaro o te tangata uaua e ahu anake ana ki te hua o te taonga: ko te hunga takare katoa ia e whawhai kau ana ki te muhore.
The thouytis of a stronge man ben euere in abundaunce; but ech slow man is euere in nedynesse.
6 E rite ana ta te arero teka ami i te taonga ki te mamaoa e aia noatia ana; ko te hunga e rapu ana i era e rapu ana i te mate.
He that gaderith tresours bi the tunge of a leesing, is veyne, and with outen herte; and he schal be hurtlid to the snaris of deth.
7 Ma te pahua a te hunga kino e tahi atu ratou; mo ratou kahore e pai ki te whakawa.
The raueyns of vnpitouse men schulen drawe hem doun; for thei nolden do doom.
8 He ara tino kopikopiko to te tangata e waha ana i te hara: tena ko te tangata ma, he tika tana mahi.
The weiward weie of a man is alien fro God; but the werk of hym that is cleene, is riytful.
9 He pai ke te noho i te kokonga o te tuanui, i te noho tahi me te wahine ngangare i roto i te whare mahorahora.
It is betere to sitte in the corner of an hous with oute roof, than with a womman ful of chydyng, and in a comyn hous.
10 Ko ta te wairua o te tangata kino he hiahia ki te kino; e kore ona kanohi e manako ki tona hoa.
The soule of an vnpitouse man desirith yuel; he schal not haue merci on his neiybore.
11 Ki te whiua te tangata whakahi, ka whai whakaaro te kuware: a, ki te whakaakona te tangata whakaaro nui, ka whiwhi ia ki te matauranga.
Whanne a man ful of pestilence is punyschid, a litil man of wit schal be the wisere; and if he sueth a wijs man, he schal take kunnyng.
12 Ka ata whakaaroa e te tangata tika te whare o te tangata kino; te peheatanga e whakataka ai te hunga kino ki te mate mo ratou.
A iust man of the hous of a wickid man thenkith, to withdrawe wickid men fro yuel.
13 Ko te tangata e puru ana i ona taringa ki te karanga a te rawakore, tera hoki ia e karanga, heoi e kore e whakarangona.
He that stoppith his eere at the cry of a pore man, schal crye also, and schal not be herd.
14 Ma te mea homai puku ka marie ai te riri, ma te moni whakapati hoki i roto i te uma ka marie ai te aritarita kaha.
A yift hid quenchith chidyngis; and a yift in bosum quenchith the moost indignacioun.
15 He mahi koa na te tangata tika te whakawa; mo nga kaimahi ia i te kino, ko te whakangaromanga.
It is ioye to a iust man to make doom; and it is drede to hem that worchen wickidnesse.
16 Ko te tangata e kotiti ke ana i te huarahi o te mahara, ka noho ia i te whakaminenga o nga tupapaku.
A man that errith fro the weie of doctryn, schal dwelle in the cumpany of giauntis.
17 Ko te tangata matenui ki nga ahuareka, ka rawakore: a, ko te tangata e matenui ana ki te waina, ki te hinu, e kore e whai taonga.
He that loueth metis, schal be in nedynesse; he that loueth wiyn and fatte thingis, schal not be maad riche.
18 Hei utu te tangata kino mo te tangata tika; a ka haere mai te tangata kopeka hei whakakapi mo te tangata tu tika.
An vnpitouse man schal be youun for a iust man; and a wickid man schal be youun for a riytful man.
19 He pai ke te noho i te koraha, i te noho tahi me te wahine tohetohe, wahine pukukino.
It is betere to dwelle in a desert lond, than with a womman ful of chidyng, and wrathful.
20 Kei te nohoanga o te tangata whakaaro nui te taonga momohanga me te hinu; heoi maumauria ake e te wairangi.
Desirable tresoure and oile is in the dwelling places of a iust man; and an vnprudent man schal distrie it.
21 Ko te tangata e whai ana i te tika, i te atawhai, ka whiwhi ki te ora, ki te tika, ki te honore.
He that sueth riytfulnesse and mercy, schal fynde lijf and glorie.
22 Ka pikitia e te tangata whakaaro nui te pa o nga marohirohi, ka taka hoki i a ia te kaha i whakawhirinaki ai ratou.
A wijs man stiede `in to the citee of stronge men, and distriede the strengthe of trist therof.
23 Ko te tangata e tiaki ana i tona mangai, i tona arero, e tiaki ana i tona wairua kei raru.
He that kepith his mouth and his tunge, kepith his soule from angwischis.
24 Ko te tangata whakakake, whakapehapeha, ko te tangata whakahi tona ingoa, e mahi ana ia i runga i te whakahirahira o tona whakamanamana.
A proude man and boosteere is clepid a fool, that worchith pride in ire.
25 Ka mate te tangata mangere i tona hiahia ano; e kore hoki ona ringa e pai ki te mahi.
Desiris sleen a slow man; for hise hondis nolden worche ony thing.
26 Tera te hanga he kaiapo tonu a pau noa te ra: ko ta te tangata tika ia he homai, kahore hoki ana kaiponu.
Al dai he coueitith and desirith; but he that is a iust man, schal yyue, and schal not ceesse.
27 He mea whakarihariha te whakahere a te tangata kino; tera noa ake ina he te whakaaro i kawea mai ai e ia.
The offringis of wickid men, that ben offrid of greet trespas, ben abhomynable.
28 Ka mate te kaiwhakaatu teka; na, ko te tangata whakarongo, ka korero, kahore he kaiwhakahe.
A fals witnesse schal perische; a man obedient schal speke victorie.
29 Ka whakamaro te tangata kino i tona mata: tena ko te tangata tika, ka whakapai i ona ara.
A wickid man makith sad his cheer vnschamefastli; but he that is riytful, amendith his weie.
30 I to Ihowa aroaro kahore he whakaaro nui, kahore he matauranga, kahore he kupu mohio, e tu.
No wisdom is, no prudence is, no counsel is ayens the Lord.
31 Kua rite noa ake he hoiho mo te ra o te whawhai; kei a Ihowa ia te whakaoranga.
An hors is maad redi to the dai of batel; but the Lord schal yyue helthe.
