Engero 4:1-9
Endagaano Enkadde nʼEndagaano Empya
Amagezi ge gali ku Ntikko
4 (A)Muwulirize baana bange okuyigiriza kwange ng’okwa kitammwe,
era musseeyo omwoyo mufune okutegeera.
2 Kubanga mbawa okuyigiriza okulungi;
temulekanga biragiro byange.
3 Bwe nnali omuvubuka nga ndi ne kitange,
omwana omu yekka omwagalwa, owa mmange,
4 (B)yanjigiriza n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ebigambo byange bikuumenga ku mutima gwo,
kuuma ebiragiro byange obeere mulamu.
5 (C)Funa amagezi; funa okutegeera,
teweerabiranga era tovanga ku bigambo bya mu kamwa kange.
6 (D)Togalekanga, nago ganaakukuumanga,
gaagale nago ganaakulabiriranga.
7 (E)Ddala amagezi kye kintu ekisingira ddala obukulu;
noolwekyo fuba ofune amagezi, era fubira ddala nnyo ofune okutegeera.
8 (F)Amagezi gagulumize, nago gajja kukuyimusa,
gaanirize, nago gajja kukuweesa ekitiibwa.
9 (G)Amagezi gajja kukutikkira engule ey’ekisa,
era gakuwe n’engule ey’ekitiibwa.”
Proverbs 4:1-9
New International Version
Get Wisdom at Any Cost
4 Listen, my sons,(A) to a father’s instruction;(B)
pay attention and gain understanding.(C)
2 I give you sound learning,
so do not forsake my teaching.
3 For I too was a son to my father,
still tender, and cherished by my mother.
4 Then he taught me, and he said to me,
“Take hold(D) of my words with all your heart;
keep my commands, and you will live.(E)
5 Get wisdom,(F) get understanding;
do not forget my words or turn away from them.
6 Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you;(G)
love her, and she will watch over you.(H)
7 The beginning of wisdom is this: Get[a] wisdom.
Though it cost all(I) you have,[b] get understanding.(J)
8 Cherish her, and she will exalt you;
embrace her, and she will honor you.(K)
9 She will give you a garland to grace your head
and present you with a glorious crown.(L)”
