Solomona 2
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1E KUU keiki, ina e lawe oe i ka'u mau olelo, A e waiho pu me oe i ko'u kanawai;
1My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;
2E haliu mai kou pepeiao i ka naauao, A e huli kou naau i ka ike;
2So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
3Ina paha e hea aku oe i ka ike, A e o aku kou leo i ka naauao;
3Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
4Ina e imi aku oe ia ia me he kala la, A e huli hoi ia ia me he waiwai huna la;
4If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;
5Alaila, e ike oe i ka makau ia Iehova, A e loaa ia oe ka ike i ke Akua.
5Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD , and find the knowledge of God.
6No ka mea, na Iehova e haawi mai i ka naauao; Mai kona waha mai ka ike a me ka noiau.
6For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.
7Hoano e oia i ke ola no ka poe pono; He paku ia no ka poe hele pololei;
7He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly.
8E malama i na ala o ka mea hoopono, E kiai hoi i ka aoao o kona poe haipule.
8He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints.
9Alaila, e ike oe i ka pono a me ka hoopono, A me ka pololei a me na aoao maikai a pau.
9Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea , every good path.
10No ka mea, e komo ka naauao iloko o kou naau, E ono hoi ka ike i kou uhane.
10¶ When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
11Na ke akamai oe e malama aku, O ka noiau hoi ke kiai ia oe,
11Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
12E hoopakele ia oe mai ka aoao hewa aku, Mai ke kanaka hoi i wahahee ka olelo:
12To deliver thee from the way of the evil man , from the man that speaketh froward things;
13Haalele lakou i ka aoao pololei, I hele ai hoi ma na ala o ka pouli.
13Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
14Olioli lakou ke hana hewa, Hauoli hoi lakou i ka ino o ka mea aia.
14Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
15O lakou ke hookekee i ko lakou hele ana, Kekee wale hoi ma ko lakou aoao:
15Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
16I hoopakeleia oe i ka wahine e, I ka wahine malihini i hoomalimali ka olelo.
16To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;
17Oia ka i haalele i ke alakai o kona wa opiopio, A hoopoina hoi i ka berita o kona Akua.
17Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
18No ka mea, e hina ana kona hale ilalo i ka make, A o kona mau ala hoi ma kahi o ka poe make.
18For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.
19O ka poe a pau e komo aku io na la, aole e hoi hou mai, Aole hoi e hiki aku lakou i ke ala o ke ola.
19None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.
20I hele oe ma ke ala o ka poe pono, I malama hoi oe i ka aoao o ka poe pololei.
20That thou mayest walk in the way of good men , and keep the paths of the righteous.
21No ka mea, e noho paa ka poe maikai ma ka aina, A e mau no malaila ka poe pololei.
21For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it.
22Aka, e okiia ana ka poe hewa mailoko aku o ka aina, A e uhukiia hoi ka poe lawehala malaila aku.
22But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.
