Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1My son, if you have become collateral for your neighbor, if you have struck your hands in pledge for a stranger,
1Wen nutik, ya kom wulela in akfalye soemoul lun siena mwet?
2you are trapped by the words of your mouth; you are ensnared with the words of your mouth.
2Ya kom sremla ke kas lom sifacna, ac sruhu ke wulela lom sifacna?
3Do this now, my son, and deliver yourself, since you have come into the hand of your neighbor. Go, humble yourself. Press your plea with your neighbor.
3Ke ouinge, wen nutik, kom muta ye ku lun mwet sacn, tusruktu pa inge inkanek se ma ac ku in tulekomla liki uh: sulaklak nu yorol ac kwafe elan tulekomla.
4Give no sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eyelids.
4Nimet motulla ku mongla nwe ke na kom orala.
5Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler.
5Srola liki kwasrip sacn oana sie won, ku soko deer ma kaingla liki sie mwet sruh kosro.
6Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise;
6Mwet alsrangesr uh enenu in lutlut ke ouiyen moul lun mak uh.
7which having no chief, overseer, or ruler,
7Wangin mwet kol, mwet fulat, ku mwet leum lalos,
8provides her bread in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.
8a elos etu in elosak mwe mongo nalos ke pacl fol, in akola nu ke pacl mihsrisr.
9How long will you sleep, sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep?
9Mwet alsrangesr se ac oan nwe ngac? El ac tukakek ngac?
10A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep—
10El fahk, “Nga ac motullana kutu srisrik. Nga ac elongak pouk ac monglana kitin pacl.”
11so your poverty will come as a robber, and your scarcity as an armed man.
11A ke el motul, ma lal nukewa ac wanginla, oana in pisrapasrla sin sie mwet sulallal.
12A worthless person, a man of iniquity, is he who walks with a perverse mouth,
12Mwet lusrongten ac mwet koluk elos forfor ac kinauk kas kikiap.
13who winks with his eyes, who signals with his feet, who motions with his fingers,
13Elos kotmwet ac oru mwe akul ke lumahlos in kiapwekom,
14in whose heart is perverseness, who devises evil continually, who always sows discord.
14ac pacl se na elos oru ma inge uh elos akoo in oru pwapa sulallal ma oan selos. Elos pirakak ma koluk yen nukewa.
15Therefore his calamity will come suddenly. He will be broken suddenly, and that without remedy.
15Ke ma inge mwe ongoiya ac fah sikyak nu selos tia suiyak pah, ac elos fah kunausyukla ac wangin kasru ku in orek nu selos.
16There are six things which the LORD hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him:
16Oasr ma onkosr su LEUM GOD El srunga; aok, itkosr mwe srungayuk nu sel su El tia ku in muteng pa inge:
17arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
17Ngetnget filang, Loh kikiap, Po su aksororye srahn mwet wangin mwata,
18a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are swift in running to mischief,
18Sie inse su kinauk pwapa koluk, Ne su sa in kasrusr nu ke ma koluk,
19a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers.
19Sie mwet orek loh kikiap, Ac sie mwet su pirakak mwe sraclik in masrlon sou.
20My son, keep your father’s commandment, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching.
20Wen nutik, oru ma papa tomom el fahk nu sum, ac nik kom mulkunla ma nina kiom el luti kom kac.
21Bind them continually on your heart. Tie them around your neck.
21Sruokya kas lalos in oanna insiom pacl nukewa.
22When you walk, it will lead you. When you sleep, it will watch over you. When you awake, it will talk with you.
22Mwe luti lalos uh ac kol kom ke pacl kom fufahsryesr, ac karingin kom ke fong, ac akkalemye ma kom in oru ke len.
23For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light. Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
23Mwe luti lalos uh sie kalem nu sum, ac kas in kai lalos ac fah luti kom ke ouiyen moul.
24to keep you from the immoral woman, from the flattery of the wayward wife’s tongue.
24Ku in sruokkomi liki mutan koluk, ac liki kas in akmunas lun mutan kien kutena mukul saya.
25Don’t lust after her beauty in your heart, neither let her captivate you with her eyelids.
25Nimet sruhfla ke oasku lalos, nimet sremla ke elos kotmwet nu sum uh.
26For a prostitute reduces you to a piece of bread. The adulteress hunts for your precious life.
26Sie mukul ku in sang na molin lof in bread se in moli sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, tuh el fin orek kosro nu sin mutan kien siena mukul, ma lal nukewa ac fah wanginla.
27Can a man scoop fire into his lap, and his clothes not be burned?
27Ya kom ku in us e iniwom ac nuknuk lom tia firiryak?
28Or can one walk on hot coals, and his feet not be scorched?
28Ya kom ku in fahsr fin mulut fol ac niom tia folla?
29So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife. Whoever touches her will not be unpunished.
29Sensen ke ma inge oapana ke kom utyak nu yurin mutan kien siena mukul. Kutena mwet su oru ouinge uh ac sun keok.
30Men don’t despise a thief if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry,
30Mwet uh tia arulana srunga mwet pusr el fin pisrapasr in akkihpyal ke el masrinsral;
31but if he is found, he shall restore seven times. He shall give all the wealth of his house.
31a el fin koneyukyak, el enenu in akfalye pacl itkosr — el enenu in sang ma lal nukewa.
32He who commits adultery with a woman is void of understanding. He who does it destroys his own soul.
32Tusruktu sie mukul su orek kosro nu sin mutan kien siena mukul, wangin etauk lal. El sifacna oru ma ac kunausulla.
33He will get wounds and dishonor. His reproach will not be wiped away.
33Ac fah akkolukyeyuk el, anwuk el, ac mwekin lal ac fah tiana wanginla nwe tok.
34For jealousy arouses the fury of the husband. He won’t spare in the day of vengeance.
34Wangin kasrkusrak lun sie mukul payuk ku in oana kasrkusrak lal ke el lemta; ac fah wangin nunak munas lal nu sin mukul sac ke pacl se el ac orek foloksak kac.
35He won’t regard any ransom, neither will he rest content, though you give many gifts.
35El ac fah tia eis kutena mwe moul in akfalye; wangin kutena mwe kite ku in akwoyela kasrkusrak lal uh.
