Solomona 15
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
World English Bible
1O KA olelo akahai, oia ke pale ae i ka huhu; O ka olelo huhu hoi, oia ke hoala ae i ka inaina.
1A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
2O ke elelo o ka poe akamai, hoike pololei aku ia i ka ike; O ka waha hoi o ka poe lapuwale, hu ae la ia i ka lapuwale.
2The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouths of fools gush out folly.
3Ma na wahi a pau na maka o Iehova, E haka pono ana i na mea hewa a me na mea maikai
3The LORD’s eyes are everywhere, keeping watch on the evil and the good.
4O ke elelo akahai oia ka laau o ke ola; O ka awahia iloko o ia mea, oia ka nahae ana o ka uhane.
4A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but deceit in it crushes the spirit.
5Hoowahawaha ka mea lapuwale i ke aoia mai e kona makua, O ka mea hoolohe i ke aoia mai, oia ka mea naauao.
5A fool despises his father’s correction, but he who heeds reproof shows prudence.
6O ka hale o ka mea pono, he waiwai nui; Ma na mea i hoahuia e ka mea hewa, he poino.
6In the house of the righteous is much treasure, but the income of the wicked brings trouble.
7O na lehelehe o ka poe akamai hoolaha no i ka ike; O ka naau o ka poe lapuwale, aole pela.
7The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so with the heart of fools.
8O ka mohai o ka poe hewa, he hoopailua ia ia Iehova; O ka pule a ka poe pololei, oia kona makemake.
8The sacrifice made by the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
9He hoopailua ia Iehova ka aoao o ka mea hewa; O ka mea hahai mahope o ka pono, oia kana mea i aloha ai.
9The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves him who follows after righteousness.
10O ka hoopaiia mai, he mea kaumaha ia i ka mea haalele i ka aoao; O ka mea hoowahawaha hoi i ke aoia mai, e make oia.
10There is stern discipline for one who forsakes the way. Whoever hates reproof shall die.
11O ka lua a me ka make, aia no imua o Iehova; Pela io no ka naau o na keiki a na kanaka.
11Sheol and Abaddon are before the LORD— how much more then the hearts of the children of men!
12Aole i aloha aku ka mea hoowahawaha i ka mea i ao mai ia ia; Aole hoi oia e hele i ka poe naauao.
12A scoffer doesn’t love to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.
13Ina olioli ka naau, oluolu no hoi ka maka; A i kaumaha ka naau, nahae no ka uhane.
13A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but an aching heart breaks the spirit.
14O ka naau o ka mea naauao, imi oia i ka ike; O ka waha o ka poe naaupo, paina no ia i ka lapuwale.
14The heart of one who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
15Poino no na la a pau o ka poe popilikia; O ka mea naau oluolu, he ahaaina mau no kana.
15All the days of the afflicted are wretched, but one who has a cheerful heart enjoys a continual feast.
16Maikai kahi mea iki me ka makau ia Iehova, Mamua o ka waiwai nui ke pili pu me ka hakaka.
16Better is little, with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure with trouble.
17Maikai kahi launahele ke ai me ke aloha pu kekahi, Mamua o ka bipi momona, ina he inaina hoi kekahi.
17Better is a dinner of herbs, where love is, than a fattened calf with hatred.
18O ke kanaka huhu, oia ke hoala ae i ka hakaka; O ka mea akahele ka huhu, hoomalielie oia i ka hakaka.
18A wrathful man stirs up contention, but one who is slow to anger appeases strife.
19O ka aoao o ka mea palaualelo, ua like ia me kahi paapu i na kakalaioa; O ka aoao hoi o ka poe pololei ua hooponoponoia.
19The way of the sluggard is like a thorn patch, but the path of the upright is a highway.
20O ke keiki akamai, hoohauoli oia i kona makuakane; O ke kanaka lapuwale, hoowahawaha oia i kona makuwahine.
20A wise son makes a father glad, but a foolish man despises his mother.
21O ka hana lapuwale, he olioli ia i ka naaupo; O ke kanaka naauao hoi, oia ka i hele pololei.
21Folly is joy to one who is void of wisdom, but a man of understanding keeps his way straight.
22Hill hewa na manao, ke ole ke kukakuka ana; A i ka nui o ka poe kukakuka, e paa no.
22Where there is no counsel, plans fail; but in a multitude of counselors they are established.
23He olioli ko ke kanaka ma ka pane ana o kona waha; O ka huaolelo hoi i ka wa kupono, ua maikai ia.
23Joy comes to a man with the reply of his mouth. How good is a word at the right time!
24O ke ala o ke ola, malaila e pii ai ka poe naauao, I pakele ae i ka malu make malalo.
24The path of life leads upward for the wise, to keep him from going downward to Sheol.
25O ka hale o ka poe haaheo, na Iehova ia e hoohiolo; Hookupaa oia i ka mokuna aina o ka wahinekanemake.
25The LORD will uproot the house of the proud, but he will keep the widow’s borders intact.
26He hoopailua ia Iehova na manao o ka mea hewa; He oluolu nae ka olelo a ka poe maemae.
26The LORD detests the thoughts of the wicked, but the thoughts of the pure are pleasing.
27O ka mea makee waiwai, hana ino loa oia i ko kona hale; A o ka mea hoowahawaha i na makana, e ola ia.
27He who is greedy for gain troubles his own house, but he who hates bribes will live.
28O ka naau o ka mea pono, noonoo ia i kaua mea e olelo aku ai; O ka waha o ka poe hewa, hu ae la ia i ka ino.
28The heart of the righteous weighs answers, but the mouth of the wicked gushes out evil.
29Ua loihi e aku o Iehova mai ka poe hewa aku; Hoolohe hoi oia i ka pule a ka poe pono.
29The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous.
30O ka malamalama o na maka, he mea ia e olioli ai ka naau; A o ka lohe i ka mea maikai, oia ka mea e momona ai na iwi.
30The light of the eyes rejoices the heart. Good news gives health to the bones.
31O ka pepeiao o lohe ana i ke aoia mai no ke ola, Noho mau ia iwaena o ka poe naauao.
31The ear that listens to reproof lives, and will be at home among the wise.
32O ka mea hoole i ke aoia mai, oia ka i hoowahawaha i kona uhane iho; O ka mea hoolohe i ke aoia mai e loaa ia ia ka naauao.
32He who refuses correction despises his own soul, but he who listens to reproof gets understanding.
33O ka makau ia Iehova, oia ka ike ana i ka naauao: O ka naau haahaa mamua ia o ka mahaloia mai.
33The fear of the LORD teaches wisdom. Before honor is humility.
