1The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
1O NA olelo akamai a Solomona ke keiki a Davida ke alii o ka Iseraela.
2To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
2He mea ia e ike ai i ka noiau a me ke aoia mai, E hoomaopopo i na olelo e naauao ai;
3To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
3E loaa'i ka ike e akamai ai, Ma ka pono a me ka hoopono, a me ka pololei;
4To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
4E haawi i ka maalea i ka poe naaupo, A me ka ike, a me ka noonoo i ke kanaka ui.
5A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
5E hoolohe ka mea naauao, a mahuahua ka ike, E loaa no i ka mea i aoia'i ka ike o naauao ai;
6To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
6E ike i ka olelo akamai a me ka hoakaka ana o ia mea, I na olelo a ka poe naauao, a me ka lakou olelo pohihi.
7¶ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
7O ka makau ia Iehova, oia ka hoomaka ana o ka ike; A o ka naauao. a me ke aoia mai, ua hoowahawahaia e ka poe lapuwale.
8My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
8E kuu keiki, e hooloke mai i ke ao ana a kou makuakane, Aole hoi e haalele i ke kanawai o kou maku wahine;
9For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
9No ka mea, he mea nani ia no kou poo, He mau lei hoi no kou a-i.
10¶ My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
10E kuu keiki, ina e hoowale wale mai ka poe hewa ia oe, Mai ae aku oe.
11If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
11Ina lakou e olelo mai, E, e hele pu kakou, E hoohalua no ke koko, E hoohalua wale i ka mea hala ole;
12Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
12E moni ola ia lakou me he malu make, E moni okoa hoi e like me ka poe e haule ana i ka lua:
13We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
13E loaa ia kakou ka waiwai maikai he nui, E hoopiha i ko kakou mau hale me ka waiwai pio;
14Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
14E hailona pu oe me makou i kou kuleana, I hookahi hipuu na kakou a pau:
15My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:
15E kuu kiekie e, mai hele pu oe mo lakou ma ke ala; E haalele kou wawae i ko lakou mau kuamoo;
16For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
16No ka mea, holo kiki ko lakou wawae i ka hewa, Wikiwiki hoi lakou i ka hookahe koko.
17Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
17Make hewa no ke kau ana i ka hei, Ma ke alo o na mea eheu a pau.
18And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.
18Moe malu lakou no ko lakou koko; Makaala hoi no na uhane o lakou.
19So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
19Pela ka aoao o ka poe makee waiwai a pau, E kaili ana i ke ola o ka mea nona ia.
20¶ Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
20Hea ae la ka naauao mawaho; Pane mai kona leo ma ke alanui;
21She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying ,
21Ma ka welau o na ala oia e kahea mai ai: Ma na kahua o na puka kulanakauhale kana olelo ana, I mai la,
22How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
22Pehea ka loihi, e ka poe ike ole, E makemake ai oukou i ka naaupo? A oukou hoi, e ka poe hoowahawaha, E makemake ai i ka hoowahawaha ana? A o oukou, e ka poe naaupo, e inaina aku ai i ka naauao?
23Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
23E huli mai oukou i ka'u ao ana; Aia hoi e niuini aku au i ko'u Uhane maluna o oukou. E hoike aku hoi ia oukou i ka'u mau olelo.
24¶ Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
24I ko'u wa i hea aku ai, hoole mai oukou; Kikoo aku la au i ko'u lima, aohe mea i manao mai;
25But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
25Haalele oukou i ko'u mau manao a pau, Aole hoi oukou i makemake i ka'u ao ana:
26I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
26Nolaila, i ko oukou popilikia e akaaka au, E hoowahawaha au i ka hiki ana o ko oukou makau;
27When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
27A hiki mai ko oukou makau me he mea ino la, A hookokoke mai ko oukou popilikia me he puahiohio la, A loohia oukou e ka pilihua a me ke kaumaha:
28Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
28Alaila, e hea mai lakou ia'u, aole au e pane aku; E imi koke lakou ia'u aole e loaa mai;
29For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD :
29No ka mea, hoowahawaha lakou i ka ike, A o ka makau ia Iehova, aole lakou i koho mai;
30They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
30Aole o lakou makemake i ka'u ao ana; Manao ino hoi i ka'u mau olelo a pau.
31Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
31Nolaila, e ai lakou i ka hua o ko lakou aoao iho, A ma ko ka manao ana o lakou e maona ai.
32For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
32No ka mea, o ka haalele ana aku o ka poe naaupo, oia ko lakou pepehiia mai, A o ka noho nanea ana o ka poe lapuwale, o ko lakou make ia.
33But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.
33Aka, o ka mea hoolohe mai ia'u. e noho oluolu no ia, E noho no ia me ka makau ole i ka poino.
