Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1My son, pay attention to my wisdom. Turn your ear to my understanding,
1Wen nutik, lohng kas in lalmwetmet luk ac porongo etauk luk.
2that you may maintain discretion, that your lips may preserve knowledge.
2Na ouiyen moul lom ac fah suwohs, ac kas lom ac fahkak lah oasr etu lom.
3For the lips of an adulteress drip honey. Her mouth is smoother than oil,
3Ngoasron mutan kien siena mukul ac ku in emwem oana honey, ac oalul fwel oana oil in olive,
4but in the end she is as bitter as wormwood, and as sharp as a two-edged sword.
4tusruktu ke safla pwar nukewa, mwe keok mukena pa ac tuku kac.
5Her feet go down to death. Her steps lead straight to Sheol.
5Mutan sac ac kolkomla nu in facl in misa. Inkanek ma el fahsr kac pa inkanek nu ke misa.
6She gives no thought to the way of life. Her ways are crooked, and she doesn’t know it.
6El kuhfla ac alfokfokla liki inkanek in moul, ac el tia akilen acn el fahsr we.
7Now therefore, my sons, listen to me. Don’t depart from the words of my mouth.
7Lohngyu inge, wen nutik uh, ac tia mulkunla ma nga fahk nu suwos.
8Remove your way far from her. Don’t come near the door of her house,
8Fahsr liki mutan ouinge uh! Nimet kalukyang nu ke mutunoa sel.
9lest you give your honor to others, and your years to the cruel one;
9Kom fin oru, na sunak ma tuh orek nu sum meet ac fah orek nu sin kutu na mwet, na kom ac fah fusr na misa inpoun mwet wangin pakomuta yoro.
10lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich another man’s house.
10Aok, mwetsac uh ac eisla mwe kasrup lom nukewa, ac ma kom kemkatu nu kac ac fah ma lun siena mwet.
11You will groan at your latter end, when your flesh and your body are consumed,
11Kom ac fah oan sasao fin mwe oan kiom. Ikom ac monum ac fah mongola,
12and say, “How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof.
12ac kom fah fahk, “Efu ku nga koflana etala? Efu ku nga tuh srunga mwet in lutiyu?
13I haven’t obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor turned my ear to those who instructed me!
13Nga tuh tiana lohang nu sin mwet luti luk nukewa, ac tiana porongalos.
14I have come to the brink of utter ruin, among the gathered assembly.”
14Ac inge nga akilenak lah akmwekinyeyuk nga sin mwet nukewa.”
15Drink water out of your own cistern, running water out of your own well.
15Kom in pwaye nu sin mutan kiom sifacna, ac sang lungse lom nu sel mukena.
16Should your springs overflow in the streets, streams of water in the public squares?
16Tulik ma kom osweang nu sin kutena mutan saya uh, ac wangin sripa nu sum.
17Let them be for yourself alone, not for strangers with you.
17Lela tulik nutum uh in kapak ac kasrekom, a in tia muta kasru mwet saya.
18Let your spring be blessed. Rejoice in the wife of your youth.
18Ke ma inge kom in engan sin mutan kiom, aok mutan fusr se na ma kom tuh payukyak se ah,
19A loving doe and a graceful deer— let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Be captivated always with her love.
19su tuh kato ac wo lumah oana soko deer mutan. Lela oaskuiyal in mwe akenganye kom. Lela elan kafiskomi ke lungse lal.
20For why should you, my son, be captivated with an adulteress? Why embrace the bosom of another?
20Wen nutik, efu ku kom in sang lungse lom nu sin siena mutan? Efu kom kaukya iniwen mutan kien siena mukul?
21For the ways of man are before the LORD’s eyes. He examines all his paths.
21LEUM GOD El liye ma nukewa kom oru. Acn nukewa kom fahsr nu we, El liye kom.
22The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare him. The cords of his sin hold him firmly.
22Orekma koluk lun sie mwet koluk oana sie mwe kwasrip. El ac sremla ke sie nwek ke koluk lal sifacna.
23He will die for lack of instruction. In the greatness of his folly, he will go astray.
23El misa ke sripen el tia sifacna liyaung orekma lal. Lalfon lal pa kololla nu in kulyuk lal uh.
