< Proverbs 10 >

1 The proverbs of Solomon: A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish son grief to his mother.
Solomon e cingthuilawk: Capa a lungkaang e ni teh, a na pa a lunghawi sak. Hatei, capa ka pathu e teh, a manu lung ka mathout sakkung doeh.
2 Ill-gotten treasures profit nothing, but righteousness brings deliverance from death.
Thoenae lahoi pâkhueng e hnopai teh, hawinae awmhoeh. Hatei, lannae ni teh duenae koehoi a rungngang.
3 The LORD does not let the righteous go hungry, but He denies the craving of the wicked.
BAWIPA ni tamikalannaw a pasai teh, tamikathoutnaw ngainae hah a tâkhawng pouh.
4 Idle hands make one poor, but diligent hands bring wealth.
Pangaknae ni mathoenae a tâco sak teh, hratbatnae ni tawntanae a tâcokhai.
5 He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.
Kawmpoi tueng navah rawca ka pâkhueng e teh, a lungkaang e capa doeh. Canga lahun nah ka ip e capa teh yeirai ka po sakkung doeh.
6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
Tamikalan lû dawk yawhawinae ao teh, tamikathoutnaw e pahni teh rektapnae hoi akawi.
7 The memory of the righteous is a blessing, but the name of the wicked will rot.
Tamikalannaw pahnimhoehnae heh yawhawinae lah ao han. Hatei, tamikathoutnaw e min teh a pawk han.
8 A wise heart will receive commandments, but foolish lips will come to ruin.
Tami lungkaang ni teh kâpoelawknaw a lungthin hoi a dâw, hatei, a lawk kapap e tamipathu teh a rawp han.
9 He who walks in integrity walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out.
Lannae lahoi ka cet e tami teh karoumcalah a cei, hatei lam longkawi ka dawn e teh panue lah ao han.
10 He who winks the eye causes grief, and foolish lips will come to ruin.
Mit cumasipnae ni lungmathoenae a tâco sak, lawk kapap e tamipathu teh a rawk han.
11 The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
Tamikalan e pahni teh hringnae tuiphuek doeh. Hatei, tami kahawihoehnaw e pahni teh moikainae ni a ramuk.
12 Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers all transgressions.
Hmuhmanae ni kâpohoehnae a tâco sak. Hatei, lungpatawnae niteh, yonnae pueng a ramuk pouh.
13 Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning, but a rod is for the back of him who lacks judgment.
Thaipanueknae ka tawn e pahni dawk lungangnae hah hmu e lah a o, hatei, hemnae bongpai teh thaipanueknae ka tawn hoeh e a hnukthun vah a bo.
14 The wise store up knowledge, but the mouth of the fool invites destruction.
Tami a lungkaangnaw niteh, thoumthainae heh a pâkhueng awh, hatei, tamipathu e pahni niteh, rawknae hah a hnai.
15 The wealth of the rich man is his fortified city, but poverty is the ruin of the poor.
Tami katawntanaw hanelah teh, a tawntanae hah ka cak e khopui lah ao teh, tamimathoenaw rawknae teh, a mathoenae doeh.
16 The labor of the righteous leads to life, but the gain of the wicked brings punishment.
Tamikalan thaw tawknae ni hringnae a tâcokhai teh, tamikathoutnaw e tawkphu teh, thoe khangnae hah doeh.
17 Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who ignores reproof goes astray.
Cangkhainae ka tarawi e teh, hringnae lamthung dawk ao. Hatei, yuenae ka ek e teh, lamthung ka phen e doeh.
18 The one who conceals hatred has lying lips, and whoever spreads slander is a fool.
Hmuhmanae hah laithoe deinae pahni hoi ka ramuk e tami, ayâ min mathoe nahanelah ka dei e tami teh tamipathu doeh.
19 When words are many, sin is unavoidable, but he who restrains his lips is wise.
Lawk pap pawiteh, payon e hai a pap. Hatei, a pahni ka cakuep e tami teh tami a lungkaang e doeh.
20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver, but the heart of the wicked has little worth.
Tamikalan e lai teh, kahawi e ngun patetlah ao teh, tamikathout e lungthin teh aphu awm hoeh.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many, but fools die for lack of judgment.
Tamikalan e pahni ni tami moikapap a kawk. Hatei, tamipathu teh lungangnae a vout dawkvah a due.
22 The blessing of the LORD enriches, and He adds no sorrow to it.
BAWIPA yawhawinae ni tami a tawnta sak teh, lungmathoenae thokhai boihoeh.
23 The fool delights in shameful conduct, but a man of understanding has wisdom.
Tamipathu hanelah teh, yonnae sak e heh a nawmnae lah a coung. Hatei, thaipanueknae ka tawn e niteh, lungangnae a tawn.
24 What the wicked man dreads will overtake him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
Tamikathout teh a taki e patetlah a lathueng a pha vaiteh, tamikalan teh a ngai e hah poe lah ao han.
25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked are no more, but the righteous are secure forever.
Bongparui a kâkaven toteh, tamikathoutnaw teh a kahma han. Hatei, tamikalan ni teh a yungyoe adu hungnae a tawn.
26 Like vinegar to the teeth and smoke to the eyes, so is the slacker to those who send him.
Tami pangak patoun e teh, misurtui kathut e ni hah a kip sak e hoi, hmaikhu ni mit a ut e patetlah doeh ao.
27 The fear of the LORD prolongs life, but the years of the wicked will be cut short.
BAWIPA takinae ni hringyung a saw sak, hatei, tamikathout e hringyung teh duem sak lah ao han.
28 The hope of the righteous is joy, but the expectations of the wicked will perish.
Tamikalan ni ngaihawi e teh lunghawinae lah ao, hatei, tamikathout e ngaihawinae teh a kahma han.
29 The way of the LORD is a refuge to the upright, but destruction awaits those who do evil.
Tamikalan hanelah BAWIPA e lamthung teh thaonae doeh. Hatei, thoenae ka sak e teh, rawkkahmanae koe a pha han.
30 The righteous will never be shaken, but the wicked will not inhabit the land.
Tamikalan teh hmuen dawk hoi nâtuek hai puen lah awm mahoeh. Hatei, tamikathoutnaw ni talai heh onae lah hno awh mahoeh
31 The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but a perverse tongue will be cut out.
Tamikalan e pahni ni lungangnae a tâcokhai, hatei ka longkawi e lai teh, tâtueng pouh lah ao han.
32 The lips of the righteous know what is fitting, but the mouth of the wicked is perverse.
Tamikalan e pahni ni ngai kawi e hno hah a panue, hatei tamikathout e pahni niteh, kâtarannae lawk doeh ouk a dei.
