Proverbs 6 - Listen Online

¹ ỌMỌ mi, bi iwọ ba ṣe onigbọwọ fun ọrẹ́ rẹ, bi iwọ ba jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ fun ajeji enia.

¹ My son, if thou be surety for thy friend, if thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger,

² Bi a ba fi ọ̀rọ ẹnu rẹ dẹkùn fun ọ, bi a ba fi ọ̀rọ ẹnu rẹ mu ọ.

² Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth.

³ Njẹ, sa ṣe eyi, ọmọ mi, ki o si gbà ara rẹ silẹ nigbati iwọ ba bọ si ọwọ ọrẹ́ rẹ; lọ, rẹ ara rẹ silẹ, ki iwọ ki o si tù ọrẹ́ rẹ.

³ Do this now, my son, deliver thyself, when thou art come into the hand of thy friend; go, humble thyself, and make sure thy friend.

⁴ Máṣe fi orun fun oju rẹ, tabi õgbe fun ipenpeju rẹ.

⁴ Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.

⁵ Gbà ara rẹ bi abo agbọnrin li ọwọ ọdẹ, ati bi ẹiyẹ li ọwọ apẹiyẹ.

⁵ Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

⁶ Tọ ẽrùn lọ, iwọ ọlẹ: kiyesi iṣe rẹ̀ ki iwọ ki o si gbọ́n:

⁶ Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:

⁷ Ti kò ni onidajọ, alabojuto, tabi alakoso.

⁷ Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,

⁸ Ti npese onjẹ rẹ̀ ni igba-ẹ̀run, ti o si nkó onjẹ rẹ̀ jọ ni ìgba ikore.

⁸ Provideth her meat in the summer, and gathereth her food in the harvest.

⁹ Ọlẹ, iwọ o ti sùn pẹ to? nigbawo ni iwọ o dide kuro ninu orun rẹ?

⁹ How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep?

¹⁰ Orun diẹ si i, õgbe diẹ si i, ikawọkòpọ lati sùn diẹ:

¹⁰ Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:

¹¹ Bẹ̃ni òṣi rẹ yio de bi ẹniti nrìn àjo, ati aini rẹ bi ọkunrin ti o hamọra ogun.

¹¹ So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.

¹² Enia-kenia, ọkunrin buburu, ti o nrìn ti on ti ẹnu arekereke.

¹² A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.

¹³ O nṣẹju rẹ̀, o nfi ẹsẹ rẹ̀ sọ̀rọ, o nfi ika rẹ̀ ṣe ajuwe;

¹³ He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;

¹⁴ Arekereke mbẹ li aiya rẹ̀, o humọ ìwa-ika nigbagbogbo; o ndá ija silẹ.

¹⁴ Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

¹⁵ Nitorina ni ipọnju rẹ̀ yio de si i lojiji; ojiji ni yio ṣẹ́ laini atunṣe.

¹⁵ Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

¹⁶ Ohun mẹfa li Oluwa korira: nitõtọ, meje li o ṣe irira fun ọkàn rẹ̀:

¹⁶ These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

¹⁷ Oju igberaga, ète eke, ati ọwọ ti nta ẹ̀jẹ alaiṣẹ silẹ,

¹⁷ A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

¹⁸ Aiya ti nhumọ buburu, ẹsẹ ti o yara ni ire sisa si ìwa-ika,

¹⁸ An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

¹⁹ Ẹlẹri eke ti nsọ eke jade, ati ẹniti ndá ìja silẹ larin awọn arakunrin.

¹⁹ A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

²⁰ Ọmọ mi, pa aṣẹ baba rẹ mọ́, ki iwọ ki o má si ṣe kọ̀ ofin iya rẹ silẹ:

²⁰ My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

²¹ Dì wọn mọ aiya rẹ nigbagbogbo, ki iwọ ki o si so o mọ ọrùn rẹ.

²¹ Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

²² Nigbati iwọ ba nrìn, yio ma ṣe amọ̀na rẹ; nigbati iwọ ba sùn, yio ma ṣọ ọ; nigbati iwọ ba si ji, yio si ma ba ọ sọ̀rọ.

²² When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

²³ Nitoripe aṣẹ ni fitila; ofin si ni imọlẹ; ati ibawi ẹkọ́ li ọ̀na ìye:

²³ For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

²⁴ Lati pa ọ mọ́ kuro lọwọ obinrin buburu nì, lọwọ ahọn ìpọnni ajeji obinrin.

²⁴ To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

²⁵ Máṣe ifẹkufẹ li aiya rẹ si ẹwà rẹ̀; bẹ̃ni ki o má si ṣe jẹ ki on ki o fi ipenpeju rẹ̀ mu ọ.

²⁵ Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

²⁶ Nitoripe nipasẹ agbere obinrin li enia fi idi oniṣù-akara kan: ṣugbọn aya enia a ma wá iye rẹ̀ daradara.

²⁶ For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.

²⁷ Ọkunrin le gbé iná lé aiya rẹ̀ ki aṣọ rẹ̀ ki o má jona?

²⁷ Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

²⁸ Ẹnikan ha le gun ori ẹyin-iná gbigbona, ki ẹsẹ rẹ̀ ki o má jona?

²⁸ Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

²⁹ Bẹ̃li ẹniti o wọle tọ obinrin ẹnikeji rẹ̀ lọ; ẹnikẹni ti o fi ọwọ bà a, kì yio wà li ailẹṣẹ̀.

²⁹ So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.

³⁰ Nwọn ki igàn ole, bi o ba ṣe pe, o jale lati tẹ́ ọkàn rẹ̀ lọrùn, nigbati ebi npa a;

³⁰ Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;

³¹ Ṣugbọn bi a ba mu u, yio san a pada niwọ̀n meje; gbogbo ini ile rẹ̀ ni yio fi san ẹsan.

³¹ But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.

³² Ṣugbọn ẹni ti o ba ba obinrin ṣe panṣaga, oye kù fun u: ẹniti o ba ṣe e yio pa ẹmi ara rẹ run.

³² But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.

³³ Ọgbẹ ati àbuku ni yio ni; ẹ̀gan rẹ̀ kì yio si parẹ́ kuro.

³³ A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.

³⁴ Nitori owú ni ibinu ọkunrin: nitorina kì yio dasi li ọjọ ẹsan.

³⁴ For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

³⁵ On kì yio nani owo idande, bẹ̃ni inu rẹ̀ kì yio yọ́, bi iwọ tilẹ sọ ẹ̀bun di pipọ.

³⁵ He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
