Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1As snow in summer, and rain in harvest, so glory is not seemly for a fool.
1Sufal in kaksakinyuk sie mwet lalfon, oana fin oasr snow ke pacl fol, ku fin oasr af ke pacl in kosrani.
2As a bird flying to other places, and a sparrow going here or there: so a curse uttered without cause shall come upon a man.
2Kas in selnga tia ku in akkolukyekomla fin wangin ma sufal kom orala. Ac oana won ma sohklana ac tia tuhwi.
3A whip for a horse, and a snaffle for an ass, and a rod for the back of fools.
3Eneneyuk in sringsring soko horse, ac kapriya oalin soko donkey, ac puok sie mwet lalfon, tuh elos in oru enenu lom an.
4Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou be made like him.
4Kom fin topuk sie kusen siyuk lalfon, kom lalfon oana mwet se ma siyuk.
5Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he imagine himself to be wise.
5Sang top lalfon nu ke kusen siyuk lalfon, na mwet se ma siyuk el ac akilen lah el tia etu oana ma el nunku.
6He that sendeth words by a foolish messenger, is lame of feet and drinketh iniquity.
6Kom fin supu sie mwet lalfon in tafwela kas lom, ac oana ke kom pakela niom; kom pwentuki ongoiya nu sum.
7As a lame man hath fair legs in vain: so a parable is unseemly in the mouth of fools.
7Sie mwet lalfon tia ku in fahk sie kas lalmwetmet, oana ke sie mwet ul nia tia ku in fahsr.
8As he that casteth a stone into the heap of Mercury: so is he that giveth honour to a fool.
8Ma lalfon se in kaksakin sie mwet lalfon, oapana ke kom fin kapriya sie eot luin fuht nutum.
9As if a thorn should grow in the hand of a drunkard: so is a parable in the mouth of fools.
9Sie mwet lalfon su srike in fahk sie soakas, ac oana ke sie mwet sruhi el srike fwacla otoh se ma fakisya inpaol.
10Judgment determineth causes: and he that putteth a fool to silence, appeaseth anger.
10Sie mwet kol orekma fin sang orekma nu sin kutena mwet lalfon su fahsryak inkanek uh, el aktukulkulye mwet orekma nukewa lal.
11As a dog that returneth to his vomit, so is the fool that repeateth his folly.
11Sie mwet lalfon su kalwenina in oru ma lalfon, el oana soko kosro ngalngul ma sifil folokla ac kang woht lal.
12Hast thou seen a man wise in his own conceit? there shall be more hope of a fool than of him.
12Sie mwet arulana lalfon, wo liki sie mwet su nunku mu el lalmwetmet tusruk el tia.
13The slothful man saith: There is a lion in the way, and a lioness in the roads.
13Efu ku mwet alsrangesr se tia tufoki liki lohm sel? Mea el sangeng kac uh? Ya lion uh?
14As the door turneth upon its hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed.
14Sie mwet alsrangesr el ikwot ikme fin mwe oan kial. El oana sie srungul ma ikakot ikakma ke hinges uh.
15The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and it grieveth him to turn it to his mouth.
15Lupan alsrangesr lun kutu mwet uh oru elos srunga sifacna srukak mwe mongo nu inwalulos.
16The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit, than seven men that speak sentences.
16Sie mwet alsrangesr el ac nunku mu el etu liki mwet itkosr su ku in aketeya nunak lalos arulana kalem.
17As he that taketh a dog by the ears, so is he that passeth by in anger, and meddleth with another man’s quarrel.
17El su sroang nu ke sie akukuin ma wangin sripal nu kac, oana sie su tufoki nu inkanek uh ac sruokya sren soko kosro ngalngul sulallal.
18As he is guilty that shooteth arrows, and lances unto death:
18Sie mwet wel su orekmakin osra in pisr ma oasr e firir ke muta ah,
19So is the man that hurteth his friend deceitfully: and when he is taken, saith: I did it in jest.
19el oana sie mwet su kiapwela mwet tulan lal, na tok el fahk mu el aksruksruk.
20When the wood faileth, the fire shall go out: and when the talebearer is taken away, contentions shall cease.
20Fin wangin etong, e uh ac kunla. Fin wangin lesrik, ac wangin akukuin.
21As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire, so an angry man stirreth up strife.
21Mulut uh akngengye e, ac etong uh oru e uh in firir, oana ke mwet folkas uh pirik na akukuin in tia tui.
22The words of a talebearer are as it were simple, but they reach to the innermost parts of the belly.
22Arulana wo eman lesrik uh. Kut lungsena ukumya.
23Swelling lips joined with a corrupt heart, are like an earthen vessel adorned with silver dross.
23Kas wo pusra ma okanla nunak na pwaye lun insiom, oana sie ahlu munas orekla ke kle ma mosrweyukla ke silver.
24An enemy is known by his lips, when in his heart he entertaineth deceit.
24Sie mwet wosounkas el orekmakin kas kulang in okanla srunga lun insial.
25When he shall speak low, trust him not: because there are seven mischiefs in his heart.
25Ku in arulana wo pusracl, tusruktu nimet lulalfongi, mweyen insial sessesla ke srunga.
26He that covereth hatred deceitfully, his malice shall be laid open in the public assembly.
26El ku in okanla srunga lal, tusruktu mwet nukewa ac liye ke orekma koluk lal.
27He that diggeth a pit, shall fall into it: and he that rolleth a stone, it shall return to him.
27Mwet su oakiya mwe kwasrip nu sin mwet ngia, ac fah sifacna sremla kac. Mwet su orala mokuk uh, ac fah toatoa uh kac.
28A deceitful tongue loveth not truth: and a slippery mouth worketh ruin.
28Kom fin srunga sie mwet, kom ac ku in suk in akkolukyalla ke kas kikiap. Wosounkas mwe na pwentuki ongoiya.
