Solomona 6
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1E KUU keiki, ina e hoohiki oe e panai no kou hoalauna, Ina i pai kou lima me ka malihini,
1My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, thou hast engaged fast thy hand to a stranger.
2A i puni oe i ka olelo a kou waha, A i punihei oe i ka olelo a kou waha.
2Thou art ensnared with the words of thy mouth, and caught with thy own words.
3Ano la, e kuu keiki, e hana oe i keia, i pakele. I kou lilo ana i ka lima o kou hoalauna: O hele, e hoohaabaa ia oe iho, e hoolaulea i kou hoalauna.
3Do therefore, my son, what I say, and deliver thyself: because thou art fallen into the hand of thy neighbour. Run about, make haste, stir up thy friend:
4Mai haawi i ka hiamoe i kou mau maka, Aole hoi e pipili kou mau lihilihi:
4Give not sleep to thy eyes, neither let thy eyelids slumber.
5E hemo aku oe me he dia la mailoko ae o ka lima, A e like hoi me ka manu mai ka lima ae o ke kuhea manu.
5Deliver thyself as a doe from the hand, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6E ka mea hiamoe, e hele oe i ka anonanona, E nana i kona aoao a e hoonaauao iho:
6Go to the ant, O sluggard, and consider her ways, and learn wisdom:
7Aohe alii ia ia, Aole haku, aole hoi lunakanawai;
7Which, although she hath no guide, nor master, nor captain,
8Hoahu no oia i kana ai i ke kau, I ka wa e ohi ai, hoiliili oia i kana mea ai.
8Provideth her meat for herself in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.
9E ka mea hiamoe, pehea ka loibi o kou hiamoe ana? Ahea la oe e ala mai ai mai kou hiamoe ana mai?
9How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou rise out of thy sleep?
10He moe iki ae, he hiamoe iki ae, He pelu hou iki ae i ka lima a hiamoe:
10Thou wilt sleep a little, thou wilt slumber a little, thou wilt fold thy hands a little to sleep:
11A e hiki mai kou ilihune me he kanaka hele la, A me kou nele e like me ke kanaka kaua.
11And want shall come upon thee, as a traveller, and poverty as a man armed. But if thou be diligent, thy harvest shall come as a fountain, and want shall flee far from thee.
12O ke kanaka aia, o ke kanaka hewa, Hele no oia me ka waha hoopunipuni.
12A man that is an apostate, an unprofitable man, walketh with a perverse mouth,
13Iimo oia me ka maka, ao aku oia me ka wawae, Kuhikuhi oia me kona manamanalima;
13He winketh with the eyes, presseth with the foot, speaketh with the finger.
14He kolohe no ma kona naau, Noonoo ino oia i na la a pau, Hookonokono oia i ka hakaka.
14With a wicked heart he deviseth evil, and at all times he soweth discord.
15Nolaila, e loohia koke mai oia e ka make; E haihai koke ia oia, aole mea nana e hoola,
15To such a one his destruction shall presently come, and he shall suddenly be destroyed, and shall no longer have any remedy.
16O keia mau mea eono, he mau mea e inaina mai ai o Iehova; Ehiku hoi e hoopailua ai o kona naau.
16Six things there are, which the Lord hateth, and the seventh his soul detesteth:
17O na maka kiekie, o ke elelo wahahee, A me na lima hookahe koko hala ole,
17Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
18O ka naau e imi ana i na manao kolohe, A me na wawae e holo kiki ana i ka hewa,
18A heart that deviseth wicked plots, feet that are swift to run into mischief,
19O ka mea hoike hoopunipuni e hana ana i ka wahahee, A me ka mea hookonokono i ka hakaka mawaena o na hoahanau.
19A deceitful witness that uttereth lies, and him that soweth discord among brethren.
20E kuu keiki, e malama oe i ke kanoha a kou makuakane, Mai haalele hoi i ke kanawai o kon makuwahine.
20My son, beep the commandments of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother.
21E hawele mau oe ia mau mea ma kou naau, E nakii oe ia mau mea ma kou a-i.
21Bind them in thy heart continually, and put them about thy neck.
22I kou hele ana, ea, e kai aku ia ia oe; I kou moe ana e kiai oia maluna ou; I kou ala ana iluna, oia ke kamailio pu me oe.
22When thou walkest, let them go with thee: when thou sleepest, let them keep thee; and when thou awakest, talk with them.
23No ka mea, he kukui ke kauoha, He malamalama ke kanawai, O ka aoao o ke ola oia ke ao ana e naauao ai:
23Because the commandment is a lamp, and the law a light, and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
24I malamaia oe i ka wahine ino, I ka malihini i hoomalimali me kona elelo.
24That they may keep thee from the evil woman, and from the flattering tongue of the stranger.
25Mai kuko aku i kona maikai maloko o kou naau, Aole hoi e puniheiia e kona mau lihilihi.
25Let not thy heart covet her beauty, be not caught with her winks:
26No ka mea, no ka wahine hookamakama, E nele ke kanaka a i ka apana ai; Hoohalua no ka wahine moe kolohe i ka uhane i minaminaia.
26For the price of a harlot is scarce one loaf: but the woman catcheth the precious soul of a man.
27E lawe anei ke kanaka i ke ahi ma kona poli, Aole hoi e wela kona kapa?
27Can a man hide fire in his bosom, and his garments not burn?
28Ina o hele ke kanaka ma na nanahu e aa ana, Aole anei e wela kona kapuwai?
28Or can he walk upon hot coals, and his feet not be burnt?
29Pela ka mea e komo ae ana i ka wahine a kona hoalauna; Aole e aponoia na mea hoopa ia ia.
29So he that goeth in to his neighbour’s wife, shall not be clean when he shall touch her.
30Aole i hoowahawahaia ka aihue i kona aihue ana, Ina he mea ia e maona ai kona pololi.
30The fault is not so great when a man hath stolen: for he stealeth to fill his hungry soul:
31Aka, i loaa oia, e uku pahiku no, E haawi oia i ka waiwai a pau o kona hale.
31And if he be taken he shall restore sevenfold, and shall give up all the substance of his house.
32O ka mea moe kolohe me ka wahine, aole ona naauao; O ka make o kona uhane kana i hana'i.
32But he that is an adulterer, for the folly of his heart shall destroy his own soul:
33E loaa ia ia ka eha a me ka hoowahawahaia mai. Aole hoi o holoiia kona mea e hilahila ai.
33He gathereth to himself shame and dishonour, and his reproach shall not be blotted out:
34No ka mea, o ka lili, oia ko ke kanaka mea e ukiuki ai; Aole oia e hoopakele i kona la e hoopai aku ai.
34Because the jealousy and rage of the husband will not spare in the day of revenge,
35Aole oia e manao mai i ka uku; Aole hoi oia o oluolu, ke haawi mai oe i na makana he nui.
35Nor will he yield to any man’s prayers, nor will he accept for satisfaction ever so many gifts.
