Proverbs 20
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
1HE mea henehene ka waina, he walaau nui hoi ka mea e ona'i; O na mea a pau i puni malaila, aole i naauao.
2The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul.
2He uwo ana me he liona la, ka weliweli i ke alii; O ka mea hoonaukiuki ia ia, hoeha no oia i kona uhane iho.
3It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.
3He mea nani no ke kanaka, ke hooki i ka hoopaapaa: Aka, e huhu no na mea lapuwale a pau.
4The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing.
4Aole e mahiai ka mea palaualelo no ke anu; A e makilo oia i ka wa e ohi ai, aole e loaa.
5Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.
5He wai hohonu, ka oleloao iloko o ko kanaka naau; Na ke kanaka naauao e uhuki ae.
6Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?
6E hai aku ka nui o na kanaka i ko lakou pono iho; O ke kanaka hana oiaio, ia wai la i loaa'i ia?
7The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.
7O ka mea hele ma kona pololei, he mea pono oia; E hoomaikaiia hoi kana poe keiki mahope ona.
8A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes.
8O ke alii e noho ana ma ka noho hookolokolo, Hooauhee oia i na hewa a pau me kona mau maka.
9Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
9Owai la ke hiki e olelo aku, Ua hoomaemae au i ko'u naau? Ua kaawale au i ko'u hewa?
10Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD .
10He ana paona palua a he ana palua no na mea e ae, He hoopailua ia Iehova ia mau mea elua.
11Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
11Ua ikeia ke keiki ma ka hana ana, Ina paha he maemae, a he pololei kana hana.
12The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them.
12O ka pepeiao lohe, a o ka maka nana, Na Iehova no i hana ia mau mea elua.
13Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.
13Mai makemake oe i ka hiamoe o lilo oe i mea nele; E wehe ae i kou mau maka, a e maona i ka ai.
14It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
14He ino, he ino, wahi a ka mea kuai mai; A i kona hele ana aku, alaila, haanui oia.
15There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
15Aia he gula a me na pohaku maikai he nui wale; Aka, o ka mea nani loa, oia ka lehelehe ike.
16Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.
16E lawe oe i ke kapa o kekahi ke panai oia no ka malihini, A no na malihini hoi i lawe i kekahi waiwai ana.
17Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.
17Ua ono i ke kanaka ka ai no ka wahahee; A mahope iho, e piha kona waha i ke one.
18Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.
18Ua paa ka manao ma ke kukakuka pu ana; Ma ka noonoo pololei hoi e kaua aku ai.
19He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips.
19O ka mea holoholo olelo, hoike aku oia i na mea i hunaia; Mai launa aku me ka mea hoomalimali me koua mau lehelehe.
20Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.
20O ka mea hailiili aku i kona makuakane a me kona makuwahine, E pio kona kukui i ke onohi o ka pouli.
21An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed.
21O ka hooilina i loaa mua ma ke kaili wale, O kona hopena, aole e pomaikai ia.
22Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD , and he shall save thee.
22Mai olelo ae oe, E hoopai aku au i ka hewa; E kakali oe ia Iehova, nana no oe o kokua mai.
23Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD ; and a false balance is not good.
23He hoopailua ia Iehova na ana paona papalua; O ke kaupaona hoopunipuni aole i pono ia.
24Man’s goings are of the LORD ; how can a man then understand his own way?
24Na Iehova mai ka hele ana o ke kanaka; Pehea hoi e hiki ai i ke kanaka ko ike i kona aoao iho?
25It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry.
25He mea hihia i ke kanaka, ke hoohiki naaupo i ka mea hemolele; A mahope iho o ka hoohiki ana, alaila noonoo.
26A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them.
26Hoopuehu ae ke alii akamai i ka poe hewa, Hookaa oia i ke kaa maluna o lakou.
27The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD , searching all the inward parts of the belly.
27O ke kukui o Iehova, o ka hanu ia o ke kanaka, E komo ana ma na wahi a pau o ka opu.
28Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy.
28Na ka lokomaikai a me ka oiaio e malama mai i ke alii; Ua paa hoi kona nohoalii i ka lokomaikai.
29The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head.
29O ka ikaika ka mea e kaulana'i na kanaka ui; O ke poohina ka mea e nani ai ka elemakule.
30The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
30O ka pahu ana o ka mai he mea hoomaemae i ka ino; O ka haua hoi, i koloko o ka opu.
