Proverbs 19
1 Better is a poor [man] that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
Nasaysayaat ti nakurapay a tao nga agbibiag iti kinalinteg ngem iti maysa a maag a dakes ti panagsasaona.
2 Also that a person be without knowledge is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet maketh false steps.
Kasta met, a saan a nasayaat ti agtarigagay nga awanan iti pannakaammo, ken ti tumaray a nakaparpartak ket maiyaw-awan iti dalan.
3 The folly of man distorteth his way, and his heart is irritated against Jehovah.
Ti kinamaag ti maysa a tao ti mangdadael iti biagna, ken busbusorenna ni Yahweh.
4 Wealth addeth many friends; but the poor is separated from his friend.
Umado ti gagayyem gapu iti kinabaknang, ngem maisina ti nakurapay a tao kadagiti gagayyemna.
5 A false witness shall not be held innocent, and he that uttereth lies shall not escape.
Saan a mabalin a saan a madusa ti maysa a palso a saksi, ken saan a makalibas ti agisawsawang iti inuulbod.
6 Many court the favour of a noble; and every one is friend to a man that giveth.
Adunto dagiti dumawat iti pabor manipud iti mannangited a tao, ken tunggal maysa ket gayyem ti manangted iti sagut.
7 All the brethren of a poor [man] hate him; how much more do his friends go far from him: he pursueth [them] with words, — they are not [to be found].
Amin a kakabsat ti nakurapay a tao ket kagurada isuna; ad-adda pay ngarud nga ad-adaywan isuna dagiti gagayyemna! Aw-awaganna ida, ngem awandan.
8 He that getteth sense loveth his own soul; he that keepeth understanding shall find good.
Ti mangnaynayon iti kinasiribna ket ipatpategna ti bukodna a biag; ti mangsalsalimetmet iti pannakaawat ket makabirok iti naimbag.
9 A false witness shall not be held innocent, and he that uttereth lies shall perish.
Saan a mabalin a saan a madusa ti maysa a palso a saksi, ngem mapukaw ti agisawsawang iti inuulbod.
10 Good living beseemeth not a fool; how much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
Saan a rumbeng nga agbiag iti narang-ay ti maysa a maag - ad-adda a saan a rumbeng nga iturayan ti maysa a tagabu dagiti prinsipe.
11 The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger, and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
Ti pannakaammo ti mangmangted iti kabaelan iti maysa a tao tapno saan a nalaka a makaunget, ken pakaidayawanna ti panangpalabasna iti nagbasolanda kenkuana.
12 The king's displeasure is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass.
Ti pungtot ti ari ket kasla panagngernger ti urbon a leon, ngem ti asina ket kasla linnaaw kadagiti karuotan.
13 A foolish son is the calamity of his father; and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
Ti maag nga anak ket pakaibabainan ti amana, ken ti dumanayudom nga asawa a babai ket kas iti danum nga agtedtedted a kanayon.
14 House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers; but a prudent wife is from Jehovah.
Ti balay ken kinabaknang ket matawtawid manipud kadagiti nagannak, ngem ti nanakem nga asawa a babai ket aggapu kenni Yahweh.
15 Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep, and the idle soul shall suffer hunger.
Ti kinasadut ket paturogenna ti tao, ngem agbisin ti tao a saanna a kayat ti agtrabaho.
16 He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his soul; he that is careless of his ways shall die.
Ti tao a mangtungtungpal iti bilin ket salsaluadanna ti biagna, ngem matay ti tao a saan a mangutob iti maipanggep kadagiti wagasna.
17 He that is gracious to the poor lendeth unto Jehovah; and what he hath bestowed will he repay unto him.
Ti siasinoman a naasi kadagiti nakurapay ket kasla padpadawatanna ni Yahweh, ket bayadanto ni Yahweh isuna kadagiti inaramidna.
18 Chasten thy son, seeing there is hope; but set not thy soul upon killing him.
Disiplinaam ti anakmo kabayatan nga adda pay namnama, ken saanmo koma nga itulok a mapukaw ti biagna.
19 A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment; for if thou deliver [him], yet thou must do it again.
Masapul a bayadan ti tao a managpungtot ti pannusa; no ispalem isuna, masapul nga aramidem daytoy iti mamindua.
20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.
Denggem ti balakad ken awatem ti pannursuro, tapno sumiribka agingga iti pagpatinggaan ti biagmo.
21 Many are the thoughts in a man's heart, but the counsel of Jehovah, that doth stand.
Adu dagiti plano iti puso ti maysa a tao, ngem ti plano ni Yahweh ti matungpal.
22 The charm of a man is his kindness; and a poor [man] is better than a liar.
Ti kinapudno ti tartarigagayan ti maysa a tao, ken nasaysayaat ti nakurapay a tao ngem ti ulbod.
23 The fear of Jehovah [tendeth] to life, and he [that hath it] shall rest satisfied without being visited with evil.
Ti panangidaydayaw kenni Yahweh ti mangiturturong kadagiti tattao iti biag; mapnek ti siasinoman nga addaan kadagitoy ken saan a madangran.
24 A sluggard burieth his hand in the dish, and will not even bring it to his mouth again.
Idisso ti sadut ti imana iti pinggan; a saanna payen a maingato daytoy nga isubo iti ngiwatna.
25 Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware; reprove the intelligent, and he will understand knowledge.
No dangram ti mananglais, agbalin a nanakem ti nengneng; ilintegmo ti adda pannakaawatna ket magun-odnanto ti pannakaammo.
26 He that ruineth [his] father and chaseth away [his] mother is a son that causeth shame and bringeth reproach.
Ti tao a taktakawanna ti amana ken pagtaltalawenna ti inana ket anak a mangipapaay iti pakaibabainan ken pakaum-umsian.
27 Cease, my son, to hear the instruction which causeth to stray from the words of knowledge.
No isardengmo ti dumngeg iti pannursuro, anakko, malipatam dagiti sasao iti pannakaammo.
28 A witness of Belial scorneth judgment, and the mouth of the wicked swalloweth down iniquity.
Lalaisen ti dakes a saksi ti hustisia, ken tiltilmunen ti ngiwat dagiti nadangkes ti basol.
29 Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of the foolish.
Nakasaganan ti panangukom para kadagiti mananglais, ken ti saplit para kadagiti bukot dagiti maag.
