Te Kohinga Tuatahi a ngā Whakatauki a Horomona
1Ko ngā whakatauki a Horomona.He tama whakaaro nui, ka koa te pāpā;tēnā he tama kūware, he utanga nui mō tōna whaea.2Kāhore he rawa o ngā taonga o te kino;mā te tika ia te oranga ake i te mate.3E kore a Ihowā e tuku i te wairua o te tangata tika kia hemokai;ka panā atu ia e ia te hiahia o te hunga kino.4He rawakore te tukunga iho o te ringa ngehe;mā te ringa kakama ia ka hua te taonga.5He kohi raumati tā tama ngākau mahara;he whakamā ia te rawa a tama moe ngahuru.6He manaaki kei te tumuaki o te tangata tika;he ārita ia kei te waha o te tangata kino, taupoki ai.7Ka manaakitia te maharatanga ki te tangata tika;ka pirau ia te ingoa o te hunga kino.8He ngākau whakaaro, ka tahuritia te whakahau;he ngutu wairangi, ka hinga.9Ko te tangata haere tika, e haere ora ana;ko te tangata parori kē ōna ara, ka mōhiotia ia.10Mā te whakakini o te kanohi ka puta ai te pōuri;ko te ngutu wairangi ia, ka hinga.11He puna ora te māngai o te tangata tika;tēnā ko te māngai o te hunga kino,ka taupokina tērā e te mahi nanakia.12Ko tō te mauāhara he whakaoho i ngā totohe;ko tō te aroha he hīpoki i ngā hē katoa.13E kitea te whakaaro nui ki ngā ngutu o te tangata mātau;ko te rākau ia te mea mō te tuarā o te ngākaukore.14Rongoā ai te hunga whakaaro nui i te mātauranga;he whakangaromanga ia kei te hori tonu, te māngai o te wairangi.15Ko ōna rawa te pā kaha o te tangata taonga;tēnā ko te hunga kore taonga, hei whakangaromanga tō rātou rawakore.16Ko te mahi a te tangata tika e ahu ana ki te ora;ko ngā hua o te kino ki te hara.17Kei te ara ki te ora te tangata e pupuri ana i te kupu ako;ko te tangata ia e kore e pai kia rīria tōna hē, ka kotiti kē.18Ko te tangata e huna ana i te mauāhara he ngutu teka;ā, he kūware te tangata e whakapuaki ana i te ngautuarā.19E kore ngā kupu maha e hapa i te kino;he mahara nui ia te tangata he ngutu kokopi nei ōna.20He hiriwa pai rawa te arero o te tangata tika;ko te ngākau o te hunga kino, he hauwarea rawa.21He tokomaha e whāngaia ana e ngā ngutu o te tangata tika;ka mate ia te hunga kūware, he kore nō te ngākau mahara.22Ka hua te taonga i tā Ihowā manaaki;kāhore hoki e kīnakitia e ia ki te pōuri.23Hei tākaro mā te wairangi te mahi hē;mā te tangata mātau ia ko te whakaaro nui.24Ko tā te tangata kino i wehi ai ka tae anō ki a ia;ā, ko tā te hunga tika i hiahia ai, ka hōmai.25Pahure rawa ake te tūkauati kua kore te hunga kino;tēnā ko te tangata tika he tūranga pūmau tērā.26He winika ki ngā niho, he paowa ki ngā kanohi;koia anō te māngere ki ōna kaiunga.27Ko te wehi ki a Ihowā e whakaroa ana i ngā rā;ka whakapotoa mai ia ngā tau o te hunga kino.28Tūmanako atu te hunga tika, koa iho;tūmanako atu te hunga kino, ngaro iho.29He kaha mō te tangata tika tā Ihowā ara;he whakangaromanga ia mō ngā kaimahi i te kino.30E kore te tangata tika e whakangāueuetia ā ake ake;e kore ia e nohoia e te hunga kino te whenua.31Ko te māngai o te tangata tika hua ana te whakaaro nui;ka tapahia ia te arero whanokē.32E mōhio ana ngā ngutu o te tangata tika ki ngā mea ka manakohia;he whanokē ia e whakapuakina ana e te māngai o te hunga kino.
