Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Ko ia kuo liunga lahi hono valokiʻi kae fakakekeva ʻe ia hono kia, ʻe fakaʻauha fakafokifā ia, pea ʻe ʻikai ha fakamoʻui ki ai.
1[Viro qui corripientem dura cervice contemnit, repentinus ei superveniet interitus, et eum sanitas non sequetur.
2ʻOka pule ʻae māʻoniʻoni ʻoku fiefia ai ʻae kakai: ka ʻoka maʻu ʻae pule ʻe he angahala ʻoku mamahi ai ʻae kakai.
2In multiplicatione justorum lætabitur vulgus; cum impii sumpserint principatum, gemet populus.
3Ko ia ʻoku manako ki he poto ʻoku ne fakafiefiaʻi ʻa ʻene tamai: ka ʻoku maumauʻi ʻene koloa ʻe ia ʻoku kaumeʻa mo e kau faʻa feʻauaki.
3Vir qui amat sapientiam lætificat patrem suum; qui autem nutrit scorta perdet substantiam.
4Ko e meʻa ʻi he fakamaau totonu ʻae tuʻi ʻoku fokotuʻumaʻu ai ʻae fonua: ka ko ia ʻoku ne faʻa maʻu ʻae ngaahi foaki ʻoku ne fakamalaʻia ia.
4Rex justus erigit terram; vir avarus destruet eam.
5Ko e tangata ko ia ʻoku lea lapu ki hono kaungāʻapi, ʻoku ʻaʻau ʻe ia ʻae kupenga ki hono vaʻe.
5Homo qui blandis fictisque sermonibus loquitur amico suo rete expandit gressibus ejus.
6Ko e fai angahala ʻae tangata angakovi ko e tauhele ia: ka ʻoku hiva mo fiefia ʻae māʻoniʻoni.
6Peccantem virum iniquum involvet laqueus, et justus laudabit atque gaudebit.
7ʻOku tokanga ʻae māʻoniʻoni ki he masiva: ka ʻoku ʻikai tokanga ʻae angakovi ke ʻiloʻi ia.
7Novit justus causam pauperum; impius ignorat scientiam.
8ʻOku tutu ʻae kolo ʻe he kau tangata manuki; ka ʻoku taʻofi atu ʻae houhau ʻe he kakai poto.
8Homines pestilentes dissipant civitatem; sapientes vero avertunt furorem.
9Kapau ʻoku fakakikihi ʻae tangata poto mo ha tangata vale, neongo ʻene lili pe kata, ʻe ʻikai ha fiemālie ʻe tupu ai.
9Vir sapiens si cum stulto contenderit, sive irascatur, sive rideat, non inveniet requiem.
10ʻOku fehiʻa ki he angatonu ʻaia ʻoku fieinu ki he toto: ka ʻoku kumi hono laumālie ʻe he māʻoniʻoni.
10Viri sanguinum oderunt simplicem; justi autem quærunt animam ejus.
11ʻOku fakahā ʻe he vale ʻa hono loto kotoa pē: ka ʻoku fakalaulauloto ʻe he poto ki he ʻamui:
11Totum spiritum suum profert stultus; sapiens differt, et reservat in posterum.
12Kapau ʻoku faʻa tokanga ʻaia ʻoku pule ki he ngaahi loi, ʻe hoko ʻo kovi ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē.
12Princeps qui libenter audit verba mendacii, omnes ministros habet impios.
13ʻOku faʻa fakataha pe ʻae masiva pea mo e kākā: pea ʻoku fakatou māmangia hona mata meia Sihova.
13Pauper et creditor obviaverunt sibi: utriusque illuminator est Dominus.
14ʻE fokotuʻumaʻu ke taʻengata ʻae nofoʻa fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻoe tuʻi, ko ia ʻoku fai totonu ʻae fakamaau ki he masiva.
14Rex qui judicat in veritate pauperes, thronus ejus in æternum firmabitur.]
15ʻOku tupu ʻae poto mei he meʻa tā mo e valoki: ka ko e tamasiʻi ʻoku tuku pe ki heʻene faʻiteliha ʻoku ne fakamaaʻi ʻa ʻene faʻē.
15[Virga atque correptio tribuit sapientiam; puer autem qui dimittitur voluntati suæ confundit matrem suam.
16ʻOka tupu ʻo tokolahi ʻae kakai angahala, ʻoku tupu mo e fai kovi: ka ʻe mamata ʻae māʻoniʻoni ki heʻenau hinga.
16In multiplicatione impiorum multiplicabuntur scelera, et justi ruinas eorum videbunt.
17Ke ke tauteʻi ho foha, pea te ke fiemālie ʻiate ia: ʻio, te ne fakafiefiaʻi ho laumālie.
17Erudi filium tuum, et refrigerabit te, et dabit delicias animæ tuæ.
18ʻOka ʻikai ʻi ai ha kikite ʻoku malaʻia ʻae kakai; ka ʻoku monūʻia ia ʻaia ʻoku fai ki he fono.
18Cum prophetia defecerit, dissipabitur populus; qui vero custodit legem beatus est.
19ʻE ʻikai poto ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻi ha lea valoki: he naʻa mo ʻene ʻiloʻi ʻe ʻikai te ne talangofua.
19Servus verbis non potest erudiri, quia quod dicis intelligit, et respondere contemnit.
20ʻOku ke mamata ki ha tangata ʻoku faʻa lea vave? ʻOku tau ʻamanaki lelei hake ki he vale ʻiate ia.
20Vidisti hominem velocem ad loquendum? stultitia magis speranda est quam illius correptio.
21Ko ia ʻoku fakahikihiki ʻa ʻene tamaioʻeiki talu ʻene kei tamasiʻi, ʻe faifai pea hoko ia ʻamui ko hono foha.
21Qui delicate a pueritia nutrit servum suum postea sentiet eum contumacem.]
22ʻOku fakatupu ʻae fekeʻikeʻi ʻe he tangata faʻa ʻita, pea ʻoku lahi ʻae fai hala ʻae tangata loto fili.
22[Vir iracundus provocat rixas, et qui ad indignandum facilis est erit ad peccandum proclivior.
23Ko e fielahi ʻae tangata, ʻe fakahifo ai ia ki lalo; ka ʻe poupou hake ʻae laumālie ʻoe angavaivai ʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei.
23Superbum sequitur humilitas, et humilem spiritu suscipiet gloria.
24Ko ia ʻoku kaumeʻa mo e kaihaʻa ʻoku fehiʻa ia ki hono laumālie ʻoʻona: pea ʻoku fanongo ʻe ia ki he kape, ka ʻe ʻikai te ne fakahā ia.
24Qui cum fure participat odit animam suam; adjurantem audit, et non indicat.
25Ko e manavahē ki ha tangata, ʻoku hoko ia ko e tauhele: ka ʻe moʻui pe ia ʻaia ʻoku falala kia Sihova.
25Qui timet hominem cito corruet; qui sperat in Domino sublevabitur.
26ʻOku kumi ʻe he tokolahi ki he loto lelei ʻo ia ʻoku pule; ka ʻoku meia Sihova ʻae fakamaau ki he tangata taki taha.
26Multi requirunt faciem principis, et judicium a Domino egreditur singulorum.
27Ko e tangata taʻefaitotonu ʻoku fakalielia ia ki he angatonu. Pea ko ia ʻoku fai totonu ʻi hono hala ʻoku fakalielia ia ki he angahala.
27Abominantur justi virum impium, et abominantur impii eos qui in recta sunt via. Verbum custodiens filius extra perditionem erit.]
