King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
1E KUU keiki e, e malama oe i ka'u mau olelo, E waiho pu hoi i ka'u kauoha me oe.
2Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
2E malama oe i ka'u kauoha i ola oe, A me ko'u kanawai hoi, e like me ke kii onohi o kou mau maka.
3Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
3E hawele oe ia mau mea ma kou mau manamanalima, E kakau hoi ia mau mea ma ka papa o kou naau.
4Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
4E i ae oe i ka naauao, O oe no ko'u kaikuwahine; E kapa aku oe i ka ike, he hoalauna:
5That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
5I malamaia oe i ka wahine e, I ka malihini hoi i hoomalimali mai me kana olelo.
6¶ For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
6No ka mea, ma ka puka o ko'u hale, Ma ko'u puka makani, nana aku la au;
7And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
7Ike iho la au iwaena o ka poe noonoo ole, Ike iho la hoi au mawaena o ka poe opiopio, I kekahi kanaka ui manao ole.
8Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
8Hele ae la ia ma ke ala e kokoke ana i kona huina, Hele ae la oia ma ke kuamoo e hiki aku ai i kona hale;
9In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:
9I ke ahiahi, i ka napoo ana o ka la, I ke aumoe, i ka poeleele;
10And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
10Aia hoi, halawai pu me ia kekahi wahine, Ua kahiko hookamakama ia; Ua maalea kona naau.
11(She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
11He walaau kona a me ka hoolohe ole, Aole noho kona mau wawae ma kona hale iho.
12Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.)
12I kekahi wa mawaho oia, I kekahi wa ae ma ke alanui, A hoohalua oia ma na huina a pau.)
13So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,
13Apo iho la kela ia ia a honi iho la, a Me ka maka hilahila ole, i aku la ia ia,
14I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows.
14He mau mohai aloha ko'u; I keia la no, mohai aku la au i ka'u mea i hoohiki ai
15Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
15Nolaila, i hele mai nei au e halawai me oe, E imi hoi ia oe, a ua loaa iho nei.
16I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works , with fine linen of Egypt.
16Hohola iho la au i ko'u wahi moe me ke kapa, Me ke kapa onionio hoi mai Aigapita mai
17I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
17Kopipi iho la au i ko'u wahi moe I ka mura, a me ka aloe, a me ke kinamona.
18Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves.
18Ina kaua i maona i ke aloha a hiki i kakahiaka, E lealea kaua i ke aloha.
19For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey:
19No ka mea, o ke kane, aole ia ma kona hale, Ua hele oia ma kahi loihi e aku.
20He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed.
20Lawe oia i ka eke kala ma kona lima, A piha ka mahina, alaila, e hoi mai oia i kona hale.
21With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.
21Ua paa kela i ka nui o kana olelo maalea; Ua lilo hoi oia i ka malimali ana o kona mau leheiehe.
22He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
22Ukali koke oia mahope ona, E like me ka hele ana o ka bipi i kona wahi e maka ai; E like hoi me ka naaopo i hoopaiia mai ma ka laau kupee;
23Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
23A o aku la ka pua i kona ake, E like me ka lele ana o ka manu i ke pahele, Aole ona ike no kona oia ia.
24¶ Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
24Ano la, e na keiki, e hoolohe mai ia'u. E maliu mai oukou i ka olelo a ko'u waha.
25Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
25Mai huli ae kou naau ma kona aoao; Mai hele hewa oe ma kona alanui.
26For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her.
26No ka mea, manomano ka poe i hina ia ia me ka eha, Na mea ikaika hoi, ua pau ia ia i ka make.
27Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
27Ma kona hale ke ala e hiki ai i ka po, E iho ana ilalo i ka make.
