Whakatauki 1
1 Ko nga whakatauki a Horomona tama a Rawiri, kingi o Iharaira;
The parablis of Salomon, the sone of Dauid, king of Israel;
2 E mohiotia ai te whakaaro nui, te ako; e kitea ai nga kupu o te matauranga;
to kunne wisdom and kunnyng;
3 E riro mai ai te ako a te ngakau mahara, te tika, te whakawa, te mea ano e rite ana;
to vndurstonde the wordis of prudence; and to take the lernyng of teching; to take riytfulnesse, and dom, and equyte;
4 Hei hoatu i te ngakau tupato ki nga kuware, i te matauranga, i te ngarahu pai ki te taitamariki;
that felnesse be youun to litle children, and kunnyng, and vndurstonding to a yong wexynge man.
5 Kia whakarongo ai te tangata whakaaro nui, kia nui ake ai tona mohio; kia whiwhi ai te tangata tupato ki nga whakaaro mohio:
A wise man heringe schal be wisere; and a man vndurstondinge schal holde gouernails.
6 E mohio ai ia ki te whakatauki, ki te kupu whakarite, ki nga kupu a nga whakaaro nui, ki a ratou korero whakapeka.
He schal perseyue a parable, and expownyng; the wordis of wise men, and the derk figuratif spechis of hem.
7 Ko te wehi ki a Ihowa te timatanga o te matauranga; e whakahawea ana te whakaarokore ki te whakaaro nui, ki te ako.
The drede of the Lord is the bigynning of wisdom; foolis dispisen wisdom and teching.
8 Whakarongo, e taku tama, ki te ako a tou papa, kaua hoki e whakarerea te ture a tou whaea;
My sone, here thou the teching of thi fadir, and forsake thou not the lawe of thi modir;
9 Ka waiho hoki ena hei pare ataahua mo tou matenga, hei mekameka whakapaipai mo tou kaki.
that grace be addid, ethir encreessid, to thin heed, and a bie to thi necke.
10 E taku tama, ki te whakawaia koe e te hunga hara, kaua e whakaae.
Mi sone, if synneris flateren thee, assente thou not to hem.
11 Ki te mea ratou, Tatou ka haere, ka whakapapa atu, ka whakaheke toto; kia whanga puku tatou, he mea takekore, mo te tangata harakore:
If thei seien, Come thou with vs, sette we aspies to blood, hide we snaris of disseitis ayens an innocent without cause;
12 Horomia oratia ratou e tatou, peratia me ta te rua tupapaku; ka riro tinana ratou, ka pera me te hunga e heke atu ana ki te poka: (Sheol h7585)
swolowe we him, as helle swolowith a man lyuynge; and al hool, as goynge doun in to a lake; we schulen fynde al preciouse catel, (Sheol h7585)
13 Ka kitea e tatou nga taonga utu nui katoa, ka whakakiia o tatou whare ki ta tatou e pahua ai:
we schulen fille oure housis with spuylis; sende thou lot with vs,
14 Maka mai tou wahi ki roto ki to matou; kia kotahi te putea ma tatou katoa.
o purs be of vs alle;
15 E taku tama, kaua e haere tahi i te ara me ratou; kaiponuhia tou waewae i to ratou huarahi;
my sone, go thou not with hem; forbede thi foot fro the pathis of hem.
16 E rere ana hoki o ratou waewae ki te kino, e hohoro ana ratou ki te whakaheke toto.
For the feet of hem rennen to yuel; and thei hasten to schede out blood.
17 He maumau hoki te hora o te kupenga ki te tirohanga a tetahi manu.
But a net is leid in veyn bifore the iyen of briddis, that han wengis.
18 Ko ratou, he whakaheke i o ratou toto ano i whakapapa ai ratou; he whakamate i a ratou ano i piri ai ratou.
Also `thilke wickid disseyueris setten aspies ayens her owne blood; and maken redi fraudis ayens her soulis.
19 Ka pena nga huarahi o te hunga apo taonga; ko te ora ano o ona rangatira e tangohia.
So the pathis of ech auerouse man rauyschen the soulis of hem that welden.
20 E hamama ana te whakaaro nui i te huarahi; e puaki ana tona reo i nga waharoa;
Wisdom prechith with outforth; in stretis it yyueth his vois.
21 E karanga ana ia i te tino wahi whakaminenga; i te wahi tuwhera o nga kuwaha, i roto i te pa, e puaki ana ana kupu;
It crieth ofte in the heed of cumpenyes; in the leeues of yatis of the citee it bringith forth hise wordis,
22 E te hunga kuware, kia pehea ake te roa o to koutou aroha ki te kuwaretanga? O te hiahia ranei o te hunga whakahi ki to ratou whakahi? O te whakakino ranei a te hunga wairangi ki te matauranga?
and seith, Hou long, ye litle men in wit, louen yong childhod, and foolis schulen coueyte tho thingis, that ben harmful to hem silf, and vnprudent men schulen hate kunnyng?
23 Tahuri mai ki taku ako: na ka ringihia e ahau toku wairua ki a koutou, ka whakaaturia aku kupu ki a koutou.
Be ye conuertid at my repreuyng; lo, Y schal profre forth to you my spirit, and Y schal schewe my wordis.
24 I karanga atu hoki ahau, heoi kihai koutou i pai mai; i totoro atu toku ringa, a kihai tetahi i whai whakaaro mai;
For Y clepide, and ye forsoken; Y helde forth myn hond, and noon was that bihelde.
25 Heoi whakakahoretia iho e koutou toku whakaaro katoa, kihai hoki i aro ki taku ako:
Ye dispisiden al my councel; and chargiden not my blamyngis.
26 Mo reira ka kata ahau i te ra o to koutou aitua; ka tawai ina pa te pawera ki a koutou.
And Y schal leiye in youre perisching; and Y schal scorne you, whanne that, that ye dreden, cometh to you.
27 Ina tae mai to koutou pawera ano he tupuhi, a ka pa mai to koutou aitua ano he paroro; ina tae mai te pouri me te ngakau mamae ki a koutou.
Whanne sodeyne wretchidnesse fallith in, and perisching bifallith as tempest; whanne tribulacioun and angwisch cometh on you.
28 Ko reira ratou karanga ai ki ahau, a e kore ahau e whakahoki kupu atu; ka rapu nui ratou i ahau, otiia e kore ahau e kitea e ratou:
Thanne thei schulen clepe me, and Y schal not here; thei schulen rise eerli, and thei schulen not fynde me.
29 Mo ratou i kino ki te matauranga; kihai hoki i whiriwhiria e ratou te wehi ki a Ihowa;
For thei hatiden teching, and thei token not the drede of the Lord,
30 Kihai i aro mai ki oku whakaaro; whakahawea ana ratou ki taku kupu riri katoa.
nether assentiden to my councel, and depraueden al myn amendyng.
31 Na reira ka kai ratou i nga hua o to ratou nei ara, ka whakakiia ano hoki ki nga mea i titoa e ratou.
Therfor thei schulen ete the fruytis of her weie; and thei schulen be fillid with her counseils.
32 Ko te tahuritanga atu hoki o nga kuware hei patu i a ratou; ko te ngakau warea ano hoki o nga wairangi hei huna i a ratou.
The turnyng awei of litle men in wit schal sle hem; and the prosperite of foolis schal leese hem.
33 Ko te tangata ia e rongo ana ki ahau, ka au tona noho, ka tea hoki i te wehi ki te kino.
But he that herith me, schal reste with outen drede; and he schal vse abundaunce, whanne the drede of yuels is takun awei.
