Proverbs 12
1 Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge. But whoever hates correction is unwise.
Koi hileh kigahna thet lou chun, hetna jong adeijin, min akhou khah ding deiloupa vang chu miching ahipoi.
2 Whoever is good shall draw grace from the Lord. But whoever trusts in his own thoughts acts impiously.
Mipha chun Yahweh Pakai lunglam atong jin, setna jeng tohgon neipa vang Yahweh Pakai in athetbol jin ahi.
3 Man will not be made strong from impiety. And the root of the just shall not be moved.
Phatlouna a kon in inchen amangthah jin, mi chondih ho vang chu koiman asuh-ling jou lou ding ahi.
4 A diligent woman is a crown to her husband. And she who acts with confusion as to which things are worthy is decay to his bones.
Numei pha chu ajipa dinga lallukhuh ahin, jumna le jachatna'a um numei vang ajipa dinga agu achang chip tobang ahi.
5 The thoughts of the just are judgments. And the counsels of the impious are dishonest.
Mikitah te tohgon chu adih a tanpeh ding, hinlah, lungthim dihloute thumop vang chu kijoulhepna jeng ahi.
6 The words of the impious lie in wait for blood. The mouth of the just shall free them.
Mikitah loute kamcheng chu thisan sona ding jeng ahin, mikitah ho kamcheng vang kihinsona jeng ahi.
7 Turn from the impious, and they will not be. But the house of the just shall stand firm.
Mikitah loute chu manthahnan alhut loiji tan, mikitah ho vang chu ding det cheh cheh diu ahi.
8 A man will be known by his doctrine. But whoever is vain and heartless will suffer contempt.
Mihem hi alungdih jal'a pachat changji ahin, mihem lungphalou chu thetbolna achang-jin ahi.
9 Better is a pauper who has what he needs, than someone glorious and in need of bread.
Mi thupi tah banga chon a, neh le chah lhahsam sang in, lung lhaisel'a ana-kitohpa aphajon ahi.
10 The just one knows the lives of his beasts. But the inner most parts of the impious are cruel.
Mikitah hon agancha jengu jong khohsahna aneiyun, mikitah loutea kon ngailutna vang chu thangsetna ahi.
11 Whoever works his land shall be satisfied with bread. But whoever continually pursues leisure is most foolish. Whoever is soothed by lingering over wine leaves behind contempt in his strongholds.
Mipontho chun agam leiset akhot-a neh ding aki khol ahin, pannabeija thil ngaitoa lhailepan vang ima aneiji pon ahi.
12 The desire of the impious is the fortification of what is most wicked. But the root of the just shall prosper.
Mikitah lou in chu mangthah loi ding, mikitah ho vang chu thingphung phatah in ajung akhodet tobang ahi.
13 For the sins of the lips draw ruin to the evil. But the just shall escape from distress.
Mikitah lou chu akamsung sohsa aseikhel thucheng achun akipal jin, mikitah ding in vang gim hesoh akon in ajamdoh jitai.
14 By the fruit of his own mouth, each one shall be filled with good things, and according to the works of his own hands, it will be distributed to him.
Mihem khat chun akam thep-ga anen alungkim jitan, hijeh achu mihem khat in na atoh teng achunga lelhun-ji ahi.
15 The way of the foolish is right in his own eyes. But whoever is wise listens to counsels.
Mingol hon achena chan-u adih jeng in amu-jiuvin, mikitah vang chun min ahilna angaijin, lam dihlou apeldoh jin ahi.
16 The senseless immediately reveals his anger. But whoever ignores injuries is clever.
Mingol in alunga adeilou chu aphongdoh paijin, mikitah vang chun min ahilouva athet bolna jong iman agel jipoi.
17 He is a sign of justice, who speaks what he knows. But whoever deceives is a dishonest witness.
Mikitah chun thudih aseiteng kicheh sel'in vetsahna aumjin, jou le nal-a thuseipa vang chun amacham cham in thu aseidoh-jin ahi.
18 He who makes promises is also jabbed, as if with a sword, in conscience. But the tongue of the wise is reasonable.
Thu kiti hi, nasatah chemjam banga akidoulel jong aum jin, miching thusei vang chun mihem adamsah-jin ahi.
19 The lips of truth shall be steadfast forever. But a hasty witness readies a lying tongue.
Thutah beh seite kamsunga kon in, thudih jeng apot in, thujou seite kamsunga kon vang chu hetman louva manthahna sohji ahi.
20 Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evils. But gladness follows those who take up counsels of peace.
Thilphalou gong ho lung sunga thilse jeng dimset in achengin, thilpha jeng ngaito teding in kipana jeng ahi.
21 Whatever may befall the just, it will not discourage him. But the impious will be filled with disasters.
Mikitah chunga thilse alhung jipon, miphalou te chunga vang gim le hesohna jeng alhung jin ahi.
22 Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord. But whoever acts faithfully pleases him.
Jou le nal jeng seiji leigui chu Yahweh Pakai in athet in, thudih a natong te chunga vang Yahweh Pakai akipah-jin ahi.
23 A resourceful man conceals knowledge. And the heart of the unwise provokes foolishness.
Miching hon achih-nau kiletsahpi louvin aum jiuvin, mingol hon vang angolnau chu aphongjal le-jitauve.
24 The hand of the strong will rule. But anyone who is neglectful will pay tribute.
Lungdih pu-hon akhut'un vai ahom jiuvin, khut chalosah nom lou mihem chu soh-a pang tei ding ahi.
25 Grief in the heart of a man humbles him. And with a good word he shall be made glad.
Lunggim a umpa chu atahsa agep liu jin, ngailutna thu ajah teng ama chu kipanan adim jitai.
26 He who ignores a loss for the sake of a friend is just. But the way of the impious will deceive them.
Sihnei lang-neina nei lou mihem chun aloi agol ding in thupha jeng aseijin, mikitah loute vang chu abonchauvin amangthah jitauve.
27 The dishonest will not discover gain. But the substance of a man will be like precious gold.
Natong nom lou chu nehding beija um ding, miching in vang nei le gou nengsel-a aset ding ahi.
28 In the path of justice, there is life. But the devious way leads to death.
Mikitah lamlhahna chu hinna lampi ahin, lamdih lou chun thina alhut ding ahi.
