Solomona 31
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1NA olelo a Lemuela ke alii, ka wanana a kona makuwahine i ao mai ai ia ia.
1The words of king Lamuel. The vision wherewith his mother instructed him.
2Heaha, e ka'u keiki? Heaha, e ke keiki a ko'u opu? Heaha hoi, e ke keiki no ko'u hoohiki ana?
2What, O my beloved, what, O the beloved of my womb, what, O the beloved of my vows?
3Mai haawi aku i kou ikaika i na wahine, Aole hoi i kou aoao i ka mea e make ai na alii.
3Give not thy substance to women, and thy riches to destroy kings.
4Aole na na'lii, e Lemuela e, Aole na na'lii e inu i ka waina, Aole hoi na ka poe aialo e inu i ka mea ikaika;
4Give not to kings, O Lamuel, give not wine to kings: because there is no secret where drunkenness reigneth:
5O inu lakou a hoopoina i ke kanawai, A kapae i ka pono o ka poe pilikia.
5And lest they drink and forget judgments, and pervert the cause of the children of the poor.
6E haawi i ka mea ikaika i ka mea e make ana, A i ka waina hoi i ka poe i kaumaha ka naau.
6Give strong drink to them that are sad: and wine to them that are grieved in mind:
7E inu iho oia a o hoopoina i kona ilihune, Aole hoi e hoomanao hou ae i kona mea kaumaha.
7Let them drink, and forget their want, and remember their sorrow no more.
8E oaka oe i kou waha no ka mea kuli, No ka hoopono i na keiki makua ole a pau.
8Open thy mouth for the dumb, and for the causes of all the children that pass.
9E oaka oe i kou waha, e hooponopono ma ka pololei, E imi hoi i ka pono no ka poe ilihune a me ka mea nele.
9Open thy mouth, decree that which is just, and do justice to the needy and poor.
10Owai ka mea i loaa ia ia ka wahine noho pono? He waiwai oia i oi aku i ko na momi.
10Who shall find a valiant woman? far and from the uttermost coasts is the price of her.
11Paulele ia ia ka naau o kana kane, Aole e nele oia i ka loaa ole.
11The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall have no need of spoils.
12He maikai no kana e hana'i ia ia aole hoi ho hewa, I na la a pau loa o kona ola ana.
12She will render him good, and not evil, all the days of her life.
13Imi oia i ka huluhipa a me ke olona, Oluolu oia i ka hana me kona mau lima.
13She hath sought wool and flax, and hath wrought by the counsel of her hands.
14Ua like no ia me na moku kalepa, Mai kahi loihi e mai i loaa'i ia ia kana ai.
14She is like the merchant’s ship, she bringeth her bread from afar.
15I ka wanaao, ala oia a haawi i ka ai na ko kona hale, A me ka mea e maona ai na kana poe kauwawahine.
15And she hath risen in the night, and given a prey to her household, and victuals to her maidens.
16Noonoo oia i ka mahinaai a kuai lilo mai; Me ka hua o kona mau lima, kanu iho no oia i ka malawaina.
16She hath considered a field, and bought it: with the fruit of her hands she hath planted a vineyard.
17Kaei oia i kona puhaka me ka ikaika, Hooikaika hoi oia i kona mau lima.
17She hath girded her loins with strength, and hath strengthened her arm.
18Hoao oia i kona waiwai i maikai ia; Aole i pio kona kukui i ka po.
18She hath tasted and seen that her traffic is good: her lamp shall not be put out in the night.
19O aku kona mau lima ma kahi e kau ai ke olona, Lalau kona mau lima i ka mea milo lope.
19She hath put out her hand to strong things, and her fingers have taken hold of the spindle.
20O aku oia i kona mau lima i ka poe nele; Kikoo oia i kona mau lima i ka poe ilihune.
20She hath opened her hand to the needy, and stretched out her hands to the poor.
21Aole ona makau e ana ko kona hale; No ka mea, pau ko kona hale i ke komo kapa ulaula.
21She shall not fear for her house in the cold of snow: for all her domestics are clothed with double garments.
22Hana oia i na kapa hoalii nona iho; O ke kilika a me ka mea ulaula, oia kona kahiko ana.
22She hath made for herself clothing of tapestry: fine linen, and purple is her covering.
23Ua ikeia kana kane ma na ipuka, I kona noho pu ana me na lunakahiko o ka aina.
23Her husband is honourable in the gates, when he sitteth among the senators of the land.
24Hana oia i ka lole olona maikai, a kuai aku; Haawi oia i na kaei i ka poe kalepa.
24She made fine linen, and sold it, and delivered a girdle to the Chanaanite.
25O ka ikaika, a o ka hanohano, oia kona kahiko ana; E hauoli oia i ka manawa mahope aku.
25Strength and beauty are her clothing, and she shall laugh in the latter day.
26Oaka oia i kona waha ma ka naauao; A o ke aloha oia ke kanawai o kona alelo.
26She hath opened her mouth to wisdom, and the law of clemency is on her tongue.
27Kiai oia i ka hele ana o ko kona hale, A o ka ai no ka palaualelo, aole oia e ai iho.
27She hath looked well to the paths of her house, and hath not eaten her bread idle.
28Ku ae kana mau keiki a hoomaikai ia ia; O kana kane hoi, mahalo oia ia ia.
28Her children rose up, and called her blessed: her husband, and he praised her.
29Nui na kaikamahine i hana pono, A ua oi aku oe mamua o lakou a pau.
29Many daughters have gathered together riches: thou hast surpassed them all.
30He hoopunipuni ke alohaia mai, he mea ole ka maka maikai; O ka wahine hoi i makau ia Iehova, oia ke hiilaniia.
30Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: the woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
31E haawi aku nana i ka hua o kona mau lima; O kana mau hana, oia ke hiilani ia ia ma na ipuka.
31Give her of the fruit of her hands: and let her works praise her in the gates.
