Solomona 19
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1MAIKAI ka mea ilihune i hele ma kona pololei, Mamua o ka mea lehelehe wahahee, a lapuwale hoi.
1Better is the poor man, that walketh in his simplicity, than a rich man that is perverse in his lips, and unwise.
2O ka uhane i nele i ka ike, he pono ole ia; O ka mea i wikiwiki na wawae, hele hewa no ia.
2Where there is no knowledge of the soul, there is no good: and he that is hasty with his feet shall stumble.
3O ka lapuwale o ke kanaka, oia ka i hookapae i kona aoao; A ukiuki aku kona naau ia Iehova.
3The folly of a man supplanteth his seeps: and he fretteth in his mind against God.
4O ka waiwai ka mea e hoonui ai i na makamaka; Ua hookaawaleia hoi ka mea ilihune mai kona hoanoho aku.
4Riches make many friends: but from the poor man, even they whom he had, depart.
5O ka mea hoike wahahee, aole e ole kona hoopaiia mai; O ka mea olelo wahahee hoi, aole ia e pakele.
5A false witness shall not be unpunished: and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.
6Nui ka poe hoopili aku i ke alii; He hoalauna hoi kela mea keia mea no ke kanaka haawi wale.
6Many honour the person of him that is mighty, and are friends of him that giveth gifts.
7Pau loa ka poe hoahanau o ka mea nele i ke aloha ole ia ia; Haalele loa hoi kona mau hoalauna ia ia; Hahai oia me na olelo, aole lakou.
7The brethren of the poor man hate him: moreover also his friends have departed far from him. He that followeth after words only, shall have nothing.
8O ka mea loaa ia ia ka naauao oia ke aloha i kona uhane; O ka mea hoopaa i ka ike, e loaa ia ia ka pono.
8But he that possesseth a mind, loveth his own soul, and he that keepeth prudence shall find good things.
9O ka mea hoike wahahee, aole e ole kona ahewaia mai, O ka mea olelo hoopunipuni, e make oia.
9A false witness shall not be unpunished: and he that speaketh lies, shall perish.
10Aole i ku pono ka hanohano i ka mea lapuwale; Aole loa hoi i ke kauwa, ke noho maluna o na'lii.
10Delicacies are not seemly for a fool: nor for a servant to have rule over princes.
11O ko ke kanaka naauao, oia ke hoopanee aku i ka huhu; O kona naui hoi, oia ke kala ana i ka hala.
11The learning of a man is known by patience and his glory is to pass over wrongs.
12He uwo ana me he liona la ka huhu o ke alii; E like hoi me ka hau ma ka weuweu kona lokomaikai.
12As the roaring of a lion, so also is the anger of a king: and his cheerfulness as the dew upon the grass.
13He mea poino i ka makuakane ke keiki lapuwale; He kulu mau ana ka hoopaapaa o ka wahine.
13A foolish son is the grief of his father: and a wrangling wife is like a roof continually dropping through.
14O ka hale a me ka waiwai, oia ka hooilina no na makua mai; Na Iehova mai hoi ka wahine manao pono.
14House and riches are given by parents: but a prudent wife is properly from the Lord.
15O ka palaualelo ka mea e poho ai iloko o ka hiamoe nui; A o ka uhane hoomolowa, e pololi no ia.
15Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.
16O ka mea malama i ke kanawai, oia ka i malama i kona uhane; O ka mea malama ole i kona aoao, e make no ia.
16He that keepeth the commandment, keepeth his own soul: but he that neglecteth his own way, shall die.
17O ka mea manawalea aku i ka ilihune, haawi aku oia na Iehova; A o kana mea i haawi ai, na kela no e hoihoi mai ia ia.
17He that hath mercy on the poor, lendeth to the Lord: and he will repay him.
18E haua i kau keiki oi laua ka manao nona, Mai menemene kou uhane no kona uwe ana.
18Chastise thy son, despair not: but to the killing of him set not thy soul.
19O ka mea huhu nui, e hooukuia oia; Ina paha e hookuu aku oe ia ia, pono e hana hou no.
19He that is impatient, shall suffer damage: and when he shall take away he shall add another thing.
20E hoolohe i ka oleloao, e haliu hoi i ke aoia mai, I naauao oe i kou hopena.
20Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayst be wise in thy latter end.
21Nui na manao maloko o ka naau o ke kanaka, Aka, o ka manao o Iehova, oia ke ku paa.
21There are many thoughts in the heart of a man: but the will of the Lord shall stand firm.
22O ka nani o ke kanaka, oia kona lokomaikai; Maikai hoi ke kanaka ilihune mamua o ka mea wahahee.
22A needy man is merciful: and better is the poor than the lying man.
23O ka makau ia Iehova, oia ke ola; E noho oluolu oia, aole e ike mai ka hewa ia ia.
23The fear of the Lord is unto life: and he shall abide in fulness without being visited with evil.
24Hookomo ka mea palaualelo i kona lima iloko o ka umeke, Aole oia e hoihoi hou aku ia i kona waha.
24The slothful hideth his hand under his armpit, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth.
25E pepehi i ka mea hoowahawaha, a e ao ka mea malama ole; E ao aku hoi i ka mea noonoo, a e ike oia i ka naauao.
25The wicked man being; scourged, the fool shall be wiser: but if thou rebuke a wise man he will understand discipline.
26O ka mea hao i kona makuakaue, a hookuke aku i kona makuwahine, Oia ke keiki hoino, a me ka hoohilahila.
26He that afflicteth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is infamous and unhappy.
27Ua oki, e kuu keiki, mai hoolohe i ke ao ana, E hooauwana ai mai ka olelo aku o ka ike.
27Cease not, O my son, to hear instruction, and be not ignorant of the words of knowledge.
28I aia ka mea hoike, hoowahawaha oia i ka pololei; O ka waha o ka poe hewa, moni no ia i ka ino.
28An unjust witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity.
29Ua makaukau ka hoopaiia no ka poe haakei, O ka haua hoi no ke kua o ka poe lapuwale.
29Judgments are prepared for scorners: and striking hammers for the bodies of fools.
