1Nimet sok sin mwet koluk, ac nimet oru kom in kawuk selos.
1Do not envy wicked men or desire their company;
2Pacl nukewa elos pwapa sulal, ac sramsram lalos mwe na purakak lokoalok.
2for their hearts devise violence, and their lips declare trouble.
3Lohm uh musaiyuk fin pwelung lun lalmwetmet ac etauk.
3By wisdom a house is built and by understanding it is established;
4Acn ma oasr etauk we, infukil uh yunla ke ma saok ac oaskulana.
4through knowledge its rooms are filled with every precious and beautiful treasure.
5Wo in lalmwetmet liki na in ku; aok, yohk sripa in etauk liki in fokoko.
5A wise man is strong, and a man of knowledge enhances his strength.
6Kom enenu na in akola akwoya meet liki kom srola ke sie mweun, ac kom fin eis kas in kasru wo puspis na kom ac fah ku in kutangla.
6Only with sound guidance should you wage war, and victory lies in a multitude of counselors.
7Kas lalmwetmet uh arulana loalla nu sin sie mwet lalfon in kalem kac. Wangin ma el ac ku in fahk ke pacl ac srumunyuk ma yohk sripa uh.
7Wisdom is too high for a fool; he does not open his mouth in the meeting place.
8Kom fin orek pwapa koluk pacl nukewa, ac fah eteyuk kom lah kom sie mwet orek lokoalok.
8He who plots evil will be called a schemer.
9Ma nukewa sie mwet lalfon ac nunkauk in oru uh ac ma na koluk. Mwet uh srunga mwet se ma kwacna aklusrongtenye mwet.
9A foolish scheme is sin, and a mocker is detestable to men.
10Kom fin munasla ke pacl kom sun ma upa, kalmac pa ku lom uh srikla.
10If you faint in the day of distress, how small is your strength!
11Nimet alolo in molela sie mwet su akola in anwuki ke sripen nununku sesuwos.
11Rescue those being led away to death, and restrain those stumbling toward the slaughter.
12Sahp kom ac fahk mu kom nikin, a God El etekom ac nunak lom. El ac fah moli nu sum fal nu ke ma kom orala.
12If you say, “Behold, we did not know about this,” does not He who weighs hearts consider it? Does not the One who guards your life know? Will He not repay a man according to his deeds?
13Tulik nutik, kom in mongo honey, mweyen arulana wo. Oana ke honey emwem in oalum,
13Eat honey, my son, for it is good, and the honeycomb is sweet to your taste.
14ouinge lalmwetmet uh wo nu ke ngunum. Kom fin eis lalmwetmet, na moul lom in pacl fahsru ac fah wo.
14Know therefore that wisdom is sweet to your soul. If you find it, there is a future for you, and your hope will never be cut off.
15Nimet oana sie mwet koluk su pwapa sulal in pisrala ma lun sie mwet suwohs, ku in eisla lohm sel.
15Do not lie in wait, O wicked man, near the dwelling of the righteous; do not destroy his resting place.
16Finne pus pacl sie mwet suwohs el ikori, el ac sifil tuyak, a mwe ongoiya uh kunausla mwet koluk.
16For though a righteous man may fall seven times, he still gets up; but the wicked stumble in bad times.
17Nimet engan ke pacl mwet lokoalok lom sun ongoiya uh, ac nimet enganak ke pacl el tukulkul.
17Do not gloat when your enemy falls, and do not let your heart rejoice when he stumbles,
18LEUM GOD El ac etu lah kom engankin, ac El ac tia lungse; fin ouinge, sahp El ac tia sang kai nu sel.
18or the LORD will see and disapprove, and turn His wrath away from him.
19Nimet lela mwet koluk in akfosrngaye kom; ac nimet sok selos,
19Do not fret over evildoers, and do not be envious of the wicked.
20mweyen wangin finsrak lun sie mwet koluk nu ke pacl fahsru. Wangin ma el akwot nu kac.
20For the evil man has no future; the lamp of the wicked will be extinguished.
21Tulik nutik, kom in akfulatye LEUM GOD ac sunakin tokosra. Nimet asruoki nu sin mwet su lainulos.
21My son, fear the LORD and the king, and do not associate with the rebellious.
22Mwet ouinge uh ac sa na in kunausyukla. Ya kom akilen luman ongoiya ma ku in tuku sin God me ac sin tokosra me?
22For they will bring sudden destruction. Who knows what ruin they can bring?
23Mwet lalmwetmet uh oayapa fahk ma inge: Tia wo sie mwet nununku in wiwimwet.
23These also are sayings of the wise: To show partiality in judgment is not good.
24El fin sang mwata nu fin mwet se ma suwohs, mwet nukewa ac srungal ac selngawel.
24Whoever tells the guilty, “You are innocent”— peoples will curse him, and nations will denounce him;
25A kutena mwet nununku su kai mwet oasr mwata, elos fah kapkapak ac mwet uh ac kaksakunulos.
25but it will go well with those who convict the guilty, and rich blessing will come upon them.
26El su kawuk na pwaye lom el ac topuk kom ke kas pwaye.
26An honest answer given is like a kiss on the lips.
27Akola ima lom ac yukwiya ma kom ac moul kac, na kom fah musai lohm sum ac sou lom.
27Complete your outdoor work and prepare your field; after that, you may build your house.
28Nimet orek loh lain sie mwet fin wangin mwatal. Nimet fahk kutena ma sutuu kacl.
28Do not testify against your neighbor without cause, and do not deceive with your lips.
29Nimet fahk mu, “Nga ac oru nu sel in oana ke el tuh oru nu sik! Nga ac folokunang pacna ma el oru nu sik!”
29Do not say, “I will do to him as he has done to me; I will repay the man according to his work.”
30Nga fahsr sasla ke ima in grape lun sie mwet alsrangesr ac lalfon.
30I went past the field of a slacker and by the vineyard of a man lacking judgment.
31Kupoi ke kokul ac mah kap wel, ac pot ma kuhlasak uh mokukla.
31Thorns had grown up everywhere, thistles had covered the ground, and the stone wall was broken down.
32Nga liye ma inge ac nunku kac, na pa inge mwe luti nga eis kac:
32I observed and took it to heart; I looked and received instruction:
33Farpoeni ac mongla kutu srisrik, eis pacl in motul lom,
33A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
34tusruktu ke kom srakna motul, sukasrup ac fah tuku nu fom oana sie mwet pisrapasr su us mwe anwuk inpaol.
34and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and need like a bandit.
