< Proverbs 1 >

1 The parables of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel,
Dagiti proverbio ni Solomon nga anak ni David, ti ari ti Israel.
2 in order to know wisdom and discipline,
Mangisuro dagitoy a proverbio iti kinasirib ken sursuro, mangisuro kadagiti sasao iti pudno a pannakaawat,
3 to understand words of prudence, and to accept the instruction of doctrine, justice and judgment, and equity,
tapno maawatyo koma ti pannakailinteg tapno agbiagkayo babaen iti panangaramid iti umno, nalinteg, ken maiparbeng.
4 so as to give discernment to little ones, knowledge and understanding to adolescents.
Mangted met dagitoy a proverbio iti kinasirib kadagiti saan a nasuroan, ken mangted iti pannakaammo ken kinatimbeng kadagiti agtutubo.
5 By listening, the wise shall become wiser and the intelligent shall possess governments.
Dumngeg koma dagiti nasirib a tattao ket manayunan ti pannakasursuroda, ken makagun-od koma dagiti mannakaawat a tattao iti pannakatarabay,
6 He shall turn his soul to a parable and to its interpretation, to the words of the wise and their enigmas.
tapno maawatanda dagiti proverbio, pagsasao, ken dagiti sasao dagiti nasirib a tattao ken dagiti burburtiada.
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The foolish despise wisdom as well as doctrine.
Ti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh ket isu ti pangrugian iti pannakaammo— laisen dagiti maag ti kinasirib ken disiplina.
8 Listen, my son, to the discipline of your father, and forsake not the law of your mother,
Anakko, denggem dagiti sursuro ti amam, ken saanmo a baybay-an dagiti annuroten ti inam;
9 so that grace may be added to your head and a collar to your neck.
agbalindanto a makaay-ayo a balangat ti ulom ken kuwintas iti tengngedmo.
10 My son, if sinners should entice you, do not consent to them.
Anakko, no awisendaka dagiti managbasol iti basolda, agkedkedka a sumurot kadakuada.
11 If they should say: “Come with us. We will lie in wait for blood. We will lay traps against the innocent, without cause.
No kunaenda, “Kumuyogka kadakami, mangpadaantayo iti patayentayo, aglemmengtayo ket mangdaruptayo lattan kadagiti inosente a tattao.
12 Let us swallow him alive, like Hell, and whole, like one descending into the pit. (Sheol h7585)
Alun-onentayo ida a sibibiag, kas iti panangala ti sheol kadagiti nasalun-at, ket pagbalinentayo ida a kas kadagiti matmatnag iti abut. (Sheol h7585)
13 We will discover every precious substance. We will fill our houses with spoils.
Makasaraktayo kadagiti amin a kita dagiti napapateg a banbanag; punnoentayo dagiti balbalaytayo kadagiti tinakawtayo kadagiti dadduma.
14 Cast your lot with us. One purse will be for us all.”
Makikappengka kadakami; pagbalinentayo a maymaysa ti supottayo.”
15 My son, do not walk with them. Preclude your feet from their paths.
Anakko, saanka a makipagna kadakuada iti dayta a dalan; saanmo nga idisdiso ta sakam iti pagpagnaanda;
16 For their feet rush to evil, and they hurry to shed blood.
tumartaray dagiti sakada iti kinadakes ken agdardarasda a mangpasayasay iti dara.
17 But a net is thrown in vain before the eyes of those who have wings.
Ta awan serserbina nga agipakatka iti iket a mangtiliw iti billit kabayatan a kumitkita ti billit.
18 Likewise, they lie in ambush against their own blood, and they undertake deceits against their own souls.
Agpadpadaan dagitoy a tattao a mangpapatayto met laeng kadagiti mismo a bagbagida— mangipakpakatda iti palab-og para kadagiti mismo a bagbagida.
19 Thus, the ways of all those who are greedy seize the souls of those who possess.
Kasta dagiti wagas ti amin a tao a manggunggun-od kadagiti kinabaknang babaen iti kinakillo; dagiti banag a nagun-od babaen iti saan a maiparbeng a wagas ti mangpukawto kadagiti biag dagiti kumpet iti daytoy.
20 Wisdom forewarns far and wide; she bestows her voice in the streets.
Agpukpukkaw ti kinasirib iti kalsada, ipigpigsana ti timekna kadagiti nagtengngaan ti ili;
21 She cries out at the head of crowds; at the entrance of the gates of the city, she offers her words, saying:
aglaawlaaw isuna iti nagsasabatan dagiti kalsada, iti pagserkan dagiti ruangan ti siudad ket kunkunana,
22 “Little ones, how long will you choose to be childish, and how long will the foolish desire what is harmful to themselves, and how long will the imprudent hate knowledge?
“Dakayo nga awanan iti kinasirib, kasano pay kapaut aya ti panangay-ayatyo iti saanyo a maaw-awatan? Dakayo a mananglais, kasano pay kabayag aya ti panangragragsakyo iti pananglalaisyo, ken dakayo a maag, kasano pay kabayag aya a gurguraenyo ti kinalaing?
23 Be converted by my correction. Lo, I will offer my spirit to you, and I will reveal my words to you.
Denggenyo ti panangbabalawko; ibukbukkonto dagiti kapanunotak kadakayo; ipakaammokto dagiti sasaok kadakayo.
24 For I called, and you refused. I extended my hand, and there was no one who watched.
Immawagak ket saankayo a dimngeg; Inyunnatko ti imak, ngem awan ti nangikaskaso.
25 You have despised all my counsels, and you have neglected my rebukes.
Ngem saanyo nga inkankano dagiti amin a sursurok ken saanyo nga impangag ti panangtubtubngarko.
26 Similarly, I will ridicule you at your demise, and I will mock you, when that which you feared shall overcome you.
Katawaakto ti pannakadidigrayo, laisenkayonto inton dumteng ti panagbuteng—
27 When sudden calamity rushes upon you, and your demise advances like a tempest, when tribulation and anguish overcome you,
inton dumteng a kasla bagyo ti kasta unay a butengyo ket iyanginnakayo ti didigra a kas iti alipugpog, inton dumteng ti panagrigat ken panagtuok kadakayo.
28 then they will call to me, and I will not heed, they will arise in the morning, and not find me.
Iti kasta ket awagandakto, ngem saanakto a sumungbat; kastanto unay ti panangawagda kaniak, ngem saandakto a masarakan.
29 For they held hatred for discipline, and they would not accept the fear of the Lord;
Gapu ta kagurada ti pannakaammo ken saanda a pinili ti agbuteng kenni Yahweh,
30 they would not consent to my counsel, but they detracted from all of my corrections.
saanda a sinurot ti sursurok, ken linaisda amin a panangilintegko.
31 Therefore, they shall eat the fruit of their way, and they shall have their fill of their own counsels.
Kanendanto ti bunga dagiti aramidda, ket mapnekdanto babaen iti bunga dagiti panggepda.
32 The loathing of the little ones shall destroy them, and the prosperity of the foolish shall perish them.
Mapapatayto dagiti saan a nasuroan inton tumallikudda, ket ti di panangikaskaso dagiti maag ti mangdadaelto kadakuada.
33 But whoever will listen to me shall rest without terror, and shall have full enjoyment of abundance, without fear of evils.”
Ngem ti siasinoman a dumngeg kaniak ket agbiagto a sitatalged ken aginananto a sitatalged nga awanan iti panagbuteng iti didigra.”
