Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1My son, if you accept my words and hide my commandments within you,
1Tulik nutik, lutlut ke ma nga luti nu sum, ac tia mulkunla ma nga fahk kom in oru.
2if you incline your ear to wisdom and direct your heart to understanding,
2Lohng kas in lalmwetmet, ac srike kom in kalem kac.
3if you truly call out to insight and lift your voice to understanding,
3Aok, ngisre in oasr etauk lom, ac kwafe tuh kom in liyaten.
4if you seek it like silver and search it out like hidden treasure,
4Suk aklohya, in oana ke kom ac suk silver ku kutu ma saok su oan wikla.
5then you will discern the fear of the LORD and discover the knowledge of God.
5Kom fin oru ouinge na kom fah etu lah mea kalmen sangeng sin LEUM GOD , ac konauk in etu ke God.
6For the LORD gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
6LEUM GOD pa ase lalmwetmet; etauk ac kalem tuku sel me.
7He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; He is a shield to those who walk with integrity,
7El sang kasru nu sin mwet suwohs, ac El karinganang mwet moul pwaye.
8to guard the paths of justice and protect the way of His saints.
8El karinganulos su oru wo nu sin mwet ngia, ac taranulos su inse pwaye nu sel.
9Then you will discern righteousness and justice and equity—every good path.
9Kom fin porongeyu, kom ac etu ma pwaye, suwohs, ac wo. Na kom ac etu lah mea fal kom in oru.
10For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will delight your soul.
10Kom ac lalmwetmet, ac etauk lom ac fah mwe insewowo nu sum.
11Discretion will watch over you, and understanding will guard you,
11Liyaten ac kalem lom ac loangekom —
12to deliver you from the way of evil, from the man who speaks perversity,
12ac sruokkomi kom in tia oru ma sutuu. Ma inge ac fah srikomla liki mwet su purakak lokoalok ke kas lalos —
13from those who leave the straight paths to walk in the ways of darkness,
13mwet su fahsr liki moul suwohs, ac som nu ke moul in lohsr,
14from those who enjoy doing evil and rejoice in the twistedness of evil,
14mwet su engan in oru ma koluk, ac insewowokin moul lusrongten ac sesuwos,
15whose paths are crooked and whose ways are devious.
15mwet kutasrik su tia ku in lulalfongiyuk.
16It will rescue you from the forbidden woman, from the stranger with seductive words
16Kom ac fah ku in kaingkunla kutena mutan koluk su ac srike in srife kom ke kas emwem lal,
17who abandons the partner of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God.
17su tia pwaye nu sin mukul tumal, ac tia esam wuleang el oru ye mutun God.
18For her house sinks down to death, and her tracks to the departed spirits.
18Kom fin som nu lohm sel, kom fahsr nu ke inkanek in misa. Kom fin som nu we, kom suwoswos nu ke facl sin misa.
19None who go to her return or negotiate the paths of life.
19Wangin sie mwet su utyak nu yorol nu foloko. El tiana foloko nu ke inkanek in moul.
20So you will follow in the ways of the good, and keep to the paths of the righteous.
20Ouinge kom in etai moul lun mwet wo, ac moulkin moul suwoswos.
21For the upright will inhabit the land, and the blameless will remain in it;
21Mwet suwoswos — elos su pwaye in ma nukewa — ac fah muta in facl sesr uh.
22but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the unfaithful will be uprooted.
22Tuh God El ac tulakunla mwet koluk uh liki acn uh, ac fusulosyak su orekma koluk.
