1Pa inge kutu pac soakas lal Solomon, su sifilpa simla sin mwet sim lal Tokosra Hezekiah lun Judah.
1These are additional proverbs of Solomon, which were copied by the men of Hezekiah king of Judah:
2Kut akfulatye God ke ma El okanla liki kut, ac kut akfulatye tokosra uh ke ma elos aketeya nu sesr.
2It is the glory of God to conceal a matter and the glory of kings to search it out.
3Kom tia ku in etu nunak lun sie tokosra. Nunak lal uh fulat oana yen engyeng uh ac loal oana meoa uh.
3As the heavens are high and the earth is deep, so the hearts of kings cannot be searched.
4Eisla ma fohkfok liki silver, na mwet orekma kac uh fah ku in sang orala ma na oasku se.
4Remove the dross from the silver, and a vessel for a silversmith will come forth.
5Eisla mwet pwapa koluk liki ye mutal tokosra, na tokosrai lal fah eteyuk ke nununku suwohs.
5Remove the wicked from the king’s presence, and his throne will be established in righteousness.
6Nimet sifacna akfulatye kom ye mutun tokosra, ku tu yen sin mwet fulat.
6Do not exalt yourself in the presence of the king, and do not stand in the place of great men;
7Ac wo in supweyuk kom nu ke sie nien muta fulat, liki na in fwackot nu sum kom in sang nien muta lom nu sin sie su fulat liki kom.
7for it is better that he says to you, “Come up here!” than that you should be demoted in the presence of the prince. Even what you have seen with your own eyes,
8Nimet sulaklak in utyak nu in nununku in tukakin ma kom liye uh. Sie mwet loh fin utyak tukum in fahkak lah kom tafongla, na mea kom ac oru?
8do not bring hastily to court. Otherwise, what will you do in the end when your neighbor puts you to shame?
9Kom, ac mwet tulan lom, fin tia insese ke kutu ma, sifacna aksuwosyela inmasrlomtal, ac nimet sramsramkin nu saya.
9Argue your case with your neighbor without betraying another’s confidence,
10Fin tia ouinge, mwet nukewa ac etu lah kom tia ku in karinganang ma oal in srumunyuk, ac mwekin lom ac tiana wanginla.
10lest the one who hears may disgrace you, and your infamy never go away.
11Sie nunak ma aketeyuki wo el arulana saok oana gold nasnas ma oakiyuki ke sie tefuro silver.
11A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.
12Kas in sensenkakin sin sie mwet ma oasr etauk la nu sin sie su insewowo in lohng, saok liki ring gold ku mwe naweyuk su orekla ke gold nasnas.
12Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold is a wise man’s rebuke to a listening ear.
13Sie mwet roso su ku in lulalfongyuk el mwe insewowo nu sel su supwalla, oana kof oyohu ke pacl fol uh.
13Like the cold of snow in the time of harvest is a trustworthy messenger to those who send him; he refreshes the soul of his masters.
14Mwet su orala wulela ac tia akfalye, elos oana pukunyeng ac eng ma wangin af kac.
14Like clouds and wind without rain is the man who boasts of gifts never given.
15Kas fisrasr ac kulang ku in kutongya alein upa, oayapa ku in kifasla nunak lun mwet leum uh.
15Through patience a ruler can be persuaded, and a gentle tongue can break a bone.
16Nimet kang honey yohk liki ma fal — ac oru kom wohtla.
16If you find honey, eat just what you need, lest you have too much and vomit it up.
17Nimet mutwata fususla nu yurin mwet tulan lom; el ac ku in totola sum ac srungakomla.
17Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house, lest he grow weary and hate you.
18Sie mwet su fahkak kas kikiap lain kutena mwet, oapana ke el sang sie cutlass faksilya, ku puokilya ke sak in anwuk, ku pisrkilya ke soko osra in pisr kosroh.
18Like a club or sword or sharp arrow is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.
19Kom fin epahl nu sin sie mwet soaru ke pacl ma upa uh sikyak, na oana ke kom mongo ke soko wihs furareyak, ku fahsr ke sie nia sukapasla.
19Like a broken tooth or a foot out of joint is confidence in a faithless man in time of trouble.
20Kom fin yuk on in srital nu sin sie mwet su arulana fohsak nunak la, ac oapana ke kom eisla nuknuk liki sie mwet ke pacl mihsrisr, ku sang sohl nu ke sie kinet.
20Like one who removes a garment on a cold day or vinegar poured on a wound is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21Mwet lokoalok lom fin masrinsral, sang mongo nal; el fin malu, sang kof nimal.
21If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat, and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
22Tuh ke kom oru ouinge el ac arulana mwekinla sum, ac LEUM GOD El ac fah moli nu sum.
22For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you.
23Lesrik pwanak kasrkusrak, oana ke eng tuh epang me uh use af.
23As the north wind brings forth rain, so a backbiting tongue brings angry looks.
24Ac wo in muta fin mangon lohm uh, liki in muta in lohm uh wi sie mutan torkaskas.
24Better to live on a corner of the roof than to share a house with a quarrelsome wife.
25Ke kom ac lohng sie pweng na wo yen loesla me, ac oana ke kom nim kof oyohu ke pacl kom arulana malu.
25Like cold water to a weary soul is good news from a distant land.
26Sie mwet suwoswos su srifeyukla sin sie mwet koluk, el oana sie unon in kof loslos su aktaekyeyukla, ku sie lufin kof pwasinla.
26Like a muddied spring or a polluted well is a righteous man who gives way to the wicked.
27Tia wo in kang honey yokla, ac oapana ke kom suk in nuna kaksakinyuk kom.
27It is not good to eat too much honey or to search out one’s own glory.
28Kom fin tia ku in sifacna leum fom, kom ac oana sie siti su wangin pot kac — fisrasr in kunausyukla.
28Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who does not control his temper.
