Proverbs 12
1 He that loveth correction, loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is foolish.
| مَنْ يُحِبُّ ٱلتَّأْدِيبَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةَ، وَمَنْ يُبْغِضُ ٱلتَّوْبِيخَ فَهُوَ بَلِيدٌ. | ١ |
2 He that is good, shall draw grace from the Lord: but he that trusteth in his own devices doth wickedly.
| ٱلصَّالِحُ يَنَالُ رِضًى مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، أَمَّا رَجُلُ ٱلْمَكَايِدِ فَيَحْكُمُ عَلَيْهِ. | ٢ |
3 Men shall not be strengthened by wickedness: and the root of the just shall not be moved.
| لَا يُثَبَّتُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ بِٱلشَّرِّ، أَمَّا أَصْلُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ فَلَا يَتَقَلْقَلُ. | ٣ |
4 A diligent woman is a crown to her husband: and she that doth things worthy of confusion, is a rottenness in his bones.
| اَلْمَرْأَةُ ٱلْفَاضِلَةُ تَاجٌ لِبَعْلِهَا، أَمَّا ٱلْمُخْزِيَةُ فَكَنَخْرٍ فِي عِظَامِهِ. | ٤ |
5 The thoughts of the just are judgments: and the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.
| أَفْكَارُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ عَدْلٌ. تَدَابِيرُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ غِشٌّ. | ٥ |
6 The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood: the mouth of the just shall deliver them.
| كَلَامُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ كُمُونٌ لِلدَّمِ، أَمَّا فَمُ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ فَيُنَجِّيهِمْ. | ٦ |
7 Turn the wicked, and they shall not be: but the house of the just shall stand firm.
| تَنْقَلِبُ ٱلْأَشْرَارُ وَلَا يَكُونُونَ، أَمَّا بَيْتُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ فَيَثْبُتُ. | ٧ |
8 A man shall be known by his learning: but he that is vain and foolish, shall be exposed to contempt.
| بِحَسَبِ فِطْنَتِهِ يُحْمَدُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ، أَمَّا ٱلْمُلْتَوِي ٱلْقَلْبِ فَيَكُونُ لِلْهَوَانِ. | ٨ |
9 Better is the poor man that provideth for himself, than he that is glorious and wanteth bread.
| اَلْحَقِيرُ وَلَهُ عَبْدٌ خَيْرٌ مِنَ ٱلْمُتَمَجِّدِ وَيُعْوِزُهُ ٱلْخُبْزُ. | ٩ |
10 The just regardeth the lives of his beasts: but the bowels of the wicked are cruel.
| ٱلصِّدِّيقُ يُرَاعِي نَفْسَ بَهِيمَتِهِ، أَمَّا مَرَاحِمُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَقَاسِيَةٌ. | ١٠ |
11 He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that pursueth idleness is very foolish. He that is delighted in passing his time over wine, leaveth a reproach in his strong holds.
| مَنْ يَشْتَغِلْ بِحَقْلِهِ يَشْبَعْ خُبْزًا، أَمَّا تَابِعُ ٱلْبَطَّالِينَ فَهُوَ عَدِيمُ ٱلْفَهْمِ. | ١١ |
12 The desire of the wicked is the fortification of evil men: but the root of the just shall prosper.
| اِشْتَهَى ٱلشِّرِّيرُ صَيْدَ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، وَأَصْلُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ يُجْدِي. | ١٢ |
13 For the sins of the lips ruin draweth nigh to the evil mall: but the just shall escape out of distress.
| فِي مَعْصِيَةِ ٱلشَّفَتَيْنِ شَرَكُ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، أَمَّا ٱلصِّدِّيقُ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنَ ٱلضِّيقِ. | ١٣ |
14 By the fruit of his own mouth shall a man be filled with good things, and according to the works of his hands it shall be repaid him.
| ٱلْإِنْسَانُ يَشْبَعُ خَيْرًا مِنْ ثَمَرِ فَمِهِ، وَمُكَافَأَةُ يَدَيِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ تُرَدُّ لَهُ. | ١٤ |
15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that is wise hearkeneth unto counsels.
| طَرِيقُ ٱلْجَاهِلِ مُسْتَقِيمٌ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ، أَمَّا سَامِعُ ٱلْمَشُورَةِ فَهُوَ حَكِيمٌ. | ١٥ |
16 A fool immediately sheweth his anger: but he that dissembleth injuries is wise.
| غَضَبُ ٱلْجَاهِلِ يُعْرَفُ فِي يَوْمِهِ، أَمَّا سَاتِرُ ٱلْهَوَانِ فَهُوَ ذَكِيٌّ. | ١٦ |
17 He that speaketh that which he knoweth, sheweth forth justice: but he that lieth, is a deceitful witness.
| مَنْ يَتَفَوَّهْ بِٱلْحَقِّ يُظْهِرِ ٱلْعَدْلَ، وَٱلشَّاهِدُ ٱلْكَاذِبُ يُظْهِرُ غِشًّا. | ١٧ |
18 There is that promiseth, and is pricked as it were with a sword of conscience: but the tongue of the wise is health.
| يُوجَدُ مَنْ يَهْذُرُ مِثْلَ طَعْنِ ٱلسَّيْفِ، أَمَّا لِسَانُ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ فَشِفَاءٌ. | ١٨ |
19 The lip of truth shall be steadfast for ever: but he that is a hasty witness, frameth a lying tongue.
| شَفَةُ ٱلصِّدْقِ تَثْبُتُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَلِسَانُ ٱلْكَذِبِ إِنَّمَا هُوَ إِلَى طَرْفَةِ ٱلْعَيْنِ. | ١٩ |
20 Deceit is in the heart of them that think evil things: but joy followeth them that take counsels of peace.
| اَلْغِشُّ فِي قَلْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُفَكِّرُونَ فِي ٱلشَّرِّ، أَمَّا ٱلْمُشِيرُونَ بِٱلسَّلَامِ فَلَهُمْ فَرَحٌ. | ٢٠ |
21 Whatsoever shall befall the just man. it shall not make him sad: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
| لَا يُصِيبُ ٱلصِّدِّيقَ شَرٌّ، أَمَّا ٱلْأَشْرَارُ فَيَمْتَلِئُونَ سُوءًا. | ٢١ |
22 Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord: but they that deal faithfully please him.
| كَرَاهَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ شَفَتَا كَذِبٍ، أَمَّا ٱلْعَامِلُونَ بِٱلصِّدْقِ فَرِضَاهُ. | ٢٢ |
23 A cautious man concealeth knowledge: and the heart of fools publisheth folly.
| اَلرَّجُلُ ٱلذَّكِيُّ يَسْتُرُ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةَ، وَقَلْبُ ٱلْجَاهِلِ يُنَادِي بِٱلْحَمَقِ. | ٢٣ |
24 The hand of the valiant shall bear rule: but that which is slothful, shall be under tribute.
| يَدُ ٱلْمُجْتَهِدِينَ تَسُودُ، أَمَّا ٱلرَّخْوَةُ فَتَكُونُ تَحْتَ ٱلْجِزْيَةِ. | ٢٤ |
25 Grief in the heart of a man shall bring him low, but with a good word he shall be made glad.
| ٱلْغَمُّ فِي قَلْبِ ٱلرَّجُلِ يُحْنِيهِ، وَٱلْكَلِمَةُ ٱلطَّيِّبَةُ تُفَرِّحُهُ. | ٢٥ |
26 He that neglecteth a loss for the sake of a friend, is just: but the way of the wicked shall deceive them.
| ٱلصِّدِّيقُ يَهْدِي صَاحِبَهُ، أَمَّا طَرِيقُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَتُضِلُّهُمْ. | ٢٦ |
27 The deceitful man shall not find gain: but the substance of a just man shall be precious gold.
| ٱلرَّخَاوَةُ لَا تَمْسِكُ صَيْدًا، أَمَّا ثَرْوَةُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلْكَرِيمَةُ فَهِيَ الِٱجْتِهَادُ. | ٢٧ |
28 In the path of justice is life: but the by-way leadeth to death.
| فِي سَبِيلِ ٱلْبِرِّ حَيَاةٌ، وَفِي طَرِيقِ مَسْلِكِهِ لَا مَوْتَ. | ٢٨ |
