Palungha Lok 10
1 Solomon palunghahaih lok loe hae tiah oh; palungha caa mah loe ampa to poeknawmsak, kamthu ih caa mah loe amno to palungsetsak.
The proverbs of Solomon: A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish son grief to his mother.
2 Amsoem ai ah hak ih hmuen loe atho om ai, toe toenghaih mah loe duekhaih thung hoiah pahlong.
Ill-gotten treasures profit nothing, but righteousness brings deliverance from death.
3 Katoeng kami loe zok amthlam moe, duek hanah Angraeng mah asaeng ai; toe kahoih ai kami ih hmuenmae loe amrosak.
The LORD does not let the righteous go hungry, but He denies the craving of the wicked.
4 Thasae ban mah anih to amtangsak, thahoih ban mah loe anih to angraengsak.
Idle hands make one poor, but diligent hands bring wealth.
5 Nipui tueah caaknaek patung kami loe palungha capa ah oh, cang aah tue ah iip kami loe azathaih paek capa ah oh.
He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.
6 Katoeng kami ih lu ah loe tahamhoihaih to oh; toe kahoih ai kami ih pakha loe athii palonghaih hoiah koi.
Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers all transgressions.
13 Panoekhaih tawn kami ih pahni ah palunghahaih to amtueng, toe panoekhaih tawn ai kami ih kaengah loe quiboeng to oh.
