Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Boast not for tomorrow, for thou knowest not what the day to come may bring forth.
1Nimet konkin ke ma kom ako in oru lutu, mweyen kom tia etu lah mea ac sikyak ingela.
2Let another praise thee, and not thy own mouth: a stranger, and not thy own lips.
2Lela mwet ngia in kaksakin kom — finne sie mwet kom tia etu. Nimet sifacna kaksakin kom.
3A stone is heavy, and sand weighty: but the anger of a fool is heavier than them both.
3Toasr lun eot ac puk uh tia ku in lumweyuk nu ke toasr lun mwe lokoalok ma sie mwet lalfon el sripauk.
4Anger hath no mercy, nor fury when it breaketh forth: and who can bear the violence of one provoked?
4Kasrkusrak el sulallal ac orala ongoiya lulap, tusruktu tia apkuran nu ke lemta!
5Open rebuke is better than hidden love.
5Wo in aksuwosye sie mwet lemtulauk, liki na in fuhlela elan nunku mu wangin nunak lom kacl.
6Better are the wounds of a friend, than the deceitful kisses of an enemy.
6Sie mwet kawuk el nunak pwaye nu sum el finne kai kom, a kom in taran sie mwet lokoalok su akukula nu sum.
7A soul that is full shall tread upon the honeycomb: and a soul that is hungry shall take even bitter for sweet.
7Pacl se kom kihpi uh kom ac srunga kang honey, tusruktu pacl kom masrinsral, finne mongo mukol ac emwem sum.
8As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that leaveth his place.
8Sie mwet su muta loes liki acn sel oana sie won ma som loes liki ahng lal.
9Ointment and perfumes rejoice the heart: and the good counsels of a friend are sweet to the soul.
9Ono keng ac mwe akmusra keng uh mwe akinsewowoye kom, a mwe lokoalok uh kunausla inse misla lom.
10Thy own friend, and thy father’s friend forsake not: and go not into thy brother’s house in the day of thy affliction. Better is a neighbour that is near, than a brother afar off.
10Nimet mulkunla mwet kawuk lom ku kawuk lun papa tomom. Kom fin sun ongoiya, nimet siyuk tamulel lom in kasrekom; sie mwet tulan su muta apkuran nu yurum ku in kasrekom liki sie tamulel su muta loesla.
11Study wisdom, my son, and make my heart joyful, that thou mayst give an answer to him that reproacheth.
11Tulik nutik, kom in lalmwetmet ac nga fah arulana engan; nga fah ku in topuk mwet nukewa su akkolukyeyu.
12The prudent man seeing evil hideth himself: little ones passing on have suffered losses.
12Ke pacl se mwe lokoalok tuku, mwet etu elos ac fahsr liki; a sie mwet wangin nunak la ac fahsryang nu kac, na toko el auli.
13Take away his garment that hath been surety for a stranger: and take from him a pledge for strangers.
13Sie mwet su wulela in fosrngakin soemoul lun sie mwetsac, el enenu in sang nuknuk lal sifacna in mwe akpwaye nu ke soemoul el wuleang kac.
14He that blesseth his neighbour with a loud voice, rising in the night, shall be like to him that curseth.
14Kom fin sala okasak mwet kawuk lom ke sie pusra lulap ke lututang, ac fah oana kom in filiya sie selnga nu facl.
15Roofs dropping through in a cold day, and a contentious woman are alike.
15Sie mutan payuk su lungsena torkaskas, el oana pusren tultul in kof ke len af uh.
16He that retaineth her, is as he that would hold the wind, and shall call in the oil of his right hand.
16Kom ac oru fuka elan misla? Ya nu oasr pacl kom srike in tulokinya eng uh, ku sruokya mwe akmusra luin poum?
17Iron sharpeneth iron, so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
17Mwet uh alutluti sie sin sie, oana ke osra uh ac sang tamla osra.
18He that keepeth the fig tree, shall eat the fruit thereof: and he that is the keeper of his master, shall be glorified.
18Kom fin karingin soko sak fig, kom ac fah kang fahko kac. Sie mwet kulansap su karingin mwet kacto lal, fah akfulatyeyuk.
19As the faces of them that look therein, shine in the water, so-the hearts of men are laid open to the wise.
19Ngunin motom sifacna pa kom liye in kof uh, ac insiom pa fahkak ouiyom sifacna.
20Hell and destruction are never filled: so the eyes of men are never satisfied.
20Kena lun mwet uh tia ku in safla — oana ke facl lun mwet misa tia ku in nwanala.
21As silver is tried in the fining-pot and gold in the furnace: so a man is tried by the mouth of him that praiseth. The heart of the wicked seeketh after evils, but the righteous heart seeketh after knowledge.
21E uh pa likliki gold ac silver; ac elahn sie mwet kalem ke kaksak lun mwet uh.
22Though thou shouldst bray a fool in the mortar, as when a pestle striketh upon sodden barley, his folly would not be taken from him.
22Kom finne sringil sie mwet lalfon nwe ke el apkuran in misa, kom tia ku in sisla lalfon lal.
23Be diligent to know the countenance of thy cattle, and consider thy own flocks:
23Karinganang sheep ac nani nutum akwoya,
24For thou shalt not always have power: but a crown shall be given to generation and generation.
24mweyen mwe kasrup uh sukawil. Finne mutunfacl lulap uh, ac tia oan nwe tok.
25The meadows are open, and the green herbs have appeared, and the hay is gathered out of the mountains.
25Pakela mah nun sheep ac nani uh, ac ke kom soano in sifil srunak, kom ku in eisani mah pe eol uh.
26Lambs are for thy clothing: and kids for the price of the field.
26Kom ku in orala nuknuk ke unen sheep nutum, ac moul acn ke mani kom sruokya ke nani ma kom kukakunla.
27Let the milk of the goats be enough for thy food, and for the necessities of thy house, and for maintenance for thy handmaids.
27Na kom, ac sou lom wi mutan kulansap lom, fah ku in nim milk ke nani lula uh.
