1Pa inge kas in palu lal Agur, wen natul Jakeh. El fahk, “God El tia wiyu, God El tia wiyu, Nga munas ac wangin ku luk.
1The words of Agur the son of Jakeh; the burden. The man saith unto Ithiel, unto Ithiel and Ucal:
2Nga lalfon oana soko kosro, Ac wangin etauk lun mwet in nga.
2Surely I am brutish, unlike a man, and have not the understanding of a man;
3Nga soenna lutlut ke lalmwetmet, Ac wanginna etu luk ke God.
3And I have not learned wisdom, that I should have the knowledge of the Holy One.
4Su nu sowak nu inkusrao ac sifilpa oatui? Su nu sruokani eng uh inpaol? Ku nokomla kof uh in sie ipin nuknuk? Ku oakiya masrol lun faclu? Kom fin etu, fahkak lah su el an, ac su wen natul.
4Who hath ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound the waters in his garment? Who hath established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou knowest?
5“God El akpwayei wuleang nukewa lal. El oana sie mwe loeyuk nu selos nukewa su suk in moulla yorol.
5Every word of God is tried; He is a shield unto them that take refuge in Him.
6Kom fin laesla kas lal ke kutena kas ma El tia fahk, El ac fah kai kom, ac akkalemye lah kom sie mwet kikiap.”
6Add thou not unto His words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
7O God, nga siyuk sum, ase nu sik ma luo inge meet liki nga misa:
7Two things have I asked of Thee; deny me them not before I die:
8kasreyu ngan tia kikiap, ac oru tuh ngan tia arulana kasrup ku tia pac arulana sukasrup. Ke ma inge ase nu sik lupan mwe mongo ma ac fal nu ke enenu luk.
8Remove far from me falsehood and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with mine allotted bread;
9Fin yokla ma oan yuruk, sahp nga ac fahk mu nga tia enenekom. A nga fin arulana sukasrup, sahp nga ac ku in pisrapasr ac akkolukye Inen God luk.
9Lest I be full, and deny, and say: 'Who is the LORD?' Or lest I be poor, and steal, and profane the name of my God.
10Nimet akkolukye sie mwet kulansap nu sin mwet kacto lal. Sahp el ac selngawi kom ac kom ac eis mwata kac.
10Slander not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty.
11Oasr mwet su selngawi papa tumalos, ac tia akkalemye srui lalos ke nina kialos.
11There is a generation that curse their father, and do not bless their mother.
12Oasr mwet nunku mu nasnas na moul lalos, a pwayeiya uh yohk fohkfok lalos.
12There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet are not washed from their filthiness.
13Oasr mwet nunku mu elos arulana wo — oru elos arulana inse fulat!
13There is a generation, Oh how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up.
14Oasr mwet su eis kasrpalos ke elos aklalfonye ac pisre ma lun mwet sukasrup ac mwet kwaco.
14There is a generation whose teeth are as swords, and their great teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men.
15Oasr fak mutan se nutin wet nim srah soko, ac ineltal kewa pa, “Use!” Oasr ma akosr ma wangin saflaiyen enenu la:
15The horseleech hath two daughters: 'Give, give.' There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four that say not: 'Enough':
16facl sin mwet misa, sie mutan talap, sie acn pao ma enenu af, ac sie e firir ma tia ku in kuniyukla.
16The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not satisfied with water; and the fire that saith not: 'Enough.'
17Sie mwet su aksruksrukkin papa tumal, ku pilesru nina kial ke el matuoh, fal in mongola sin won vulture, ku tupla atronmutal sin won raven.
17The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young vultures shall eat it.
18Oasr ma akosr ma nga tiana ku in kalem kac:
18There are three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, four which I know not:
19ouiyen sohksok lun sie eagle yen engyeng uh, ouiyen orakrak lun soko wet fin sie eot, ouiyen soko oak ma konauk inkanek la fin meoa, ac ouiyen sie mukul ac mutan se el lungse.
19The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a serpent upon a rock; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea; and the way of a man with a young woman.
20Pa inge luman sie mutan payuk su tia pwaye nu sin mukul tumal: el orek kosro, toko el yihla ac fahk, “Wanginna ma koluk nga oru!”
20So is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith: 'I have done no wickedness.'
21Oasr ma akosr faclu tia ku in mutangla:
21For three things the earth doth quake, and for four it cannot endure:
22Sie mwet kohs su sun wal lun tokosra, sie mwet lalfon su arulana kihp,
22For a servant when he reigneth; and a churl when he is filled with food;
23sie mutan kwaseyuk su payukyak, ac sie mutan kulansap su eisla acn sin mutan kacto lal.
23For an odious woman when she is married; and a handmaid that is heir to her mistress.
24Oasr ma akosr fin faclu su srik ac arulana lalmwetmet:
24There are four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise:
25Mak — elos ne munas a elos elosak mongo nalos ke pacl fol;
25The ants are a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer;
26Kosro badger — elos tia pac ku, tuh elos orala nien muta lalos inmasrlon eot uh.
26The rock-badgers are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the crags;
27Locust — wangin tokosra lalos, tuh elos ueni sohk.
27The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands;
28Kinoul — kom ku in sruokya soko inpoum, ac kom ku pac in konauk ke inkul fulat sin tokosra.
28The spider thou canst take with the hands, yet is she in kings' palaces.
29Oasr ma akosr arulana kato luman fahsr la uh:
29There are three things which are stately in their march, yea, four which are stately in going:
30lion — kosro soko ma ku emeet ac wangin sangeng lal sin kutena kosro;
30The lion, which is mightiest among beasts, and turneth not away for any;
31nani, won mukul, ac tokosra uh ke elos tu ye mutun mwet lalos.
31The greyhound; the he-goat also; and the king, against whom there is no rising up.
32Kom fin lalfon ac sifacna akfulatye kom in oru pwapa koluk, tui ac nunkala akwoya!
32If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast planned devices, lay thy hand upon thy mouth.
33Kom fin arukak milk, na ac ekla butter. Kom fin fiskiya infwen sie mwet, ac srahsra. Kom fin akkasrkusrakyauk mwet, kom ac ongoiya.
33For the churning of milk bringeth forth curd, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood; so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife.
