Proverbs 27
1 Boast not for tomorrow, for thou knowest not what the day to come may bring forth.
भोलीको विषयमा घमण्ड नगर्, किनकि एकै दिनमा के आइपर्छ भनी तँलाई थाहा छैन ।
2 Let another praise thee, and not thy own mouth: a stranger, and not thy own lips.
कसैले तेरो प्रशंसा गरोस्, तेरै आफ्नै मुखले होइन; परदेशीले गरोस्, तेरो ओठले होइन ।
3 A stone is heavy, and sand weighty: but the anger of a fool is heavier than them both.
ढुङ्गाको बोझ र बालुवाको ओजनलाई विचार गर् । मूर्खको चिढ्याइ ती दुवैभन्दा गरुङ्गो हुन्छ ।
4 Anger hath no mercy, nor fury when it breaketh forth: and who can bear the violence of one provoked?
झोँकको क्रोध र रिसको बाढी छ, तर डाहको सामु को खडा हुन सक्छ र?
5 Open rebuke is better than hidden love.
गुप्त प्रेमभन्दा खुला हप्की बेस हो ।
6 Better are the wounds of a friend, than the deceitful kisses of an enemy.
मित्रले दिएको चोट पत्यारलाग्दो हुन्छ, तर शत्रुले तँलाई प्रचुर मात्रामा चुम्बन गर्न सक्छ ।
7 A soul that is full shall tread upon the honeycomb: and a soul that is hungry shall take even bitter for sweet.
पेटभरि खाएको मानिसले महको चाकालाई पनि इन्कार गर्छ, तर भोकाएको व्यक्तिलाई हरेक तितो कुरो मिठो लाग्छ ।
8 As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that leaveth his place.
आफ्नो गुँडबाट भट्किएर निस्केको चरा आफ्नो बासस्थानबाट बरालिएको मानिसझैँ हुन्छ ।
9 Ointment and perfumes rejoice the heart: and the good counsels of a friend are sweet to the soul.
अत्तर र धूपले हृदयलाई आनन्द दिन्छ, तर मित्रको मिठास उसको इमानदार सल्लाहबाट आउँछ ।
10 Thy own friend, and thy father’s friend forsake not: and go not into thy brother’s house in the day of thy affliction. Better is a neighbour that is near, than a brother afar off.
आफ्नो मित्र र मित्रको बुबालाई नत्याग्, अनि तेरो विपत्तिको दिनमा तेरो भाइको घरमा नजा । टाढाको भाइभन्दा नजिकको छिमेकी उत्तम हुन्छ ।
11 Study wisdom, my son, and make my heart joyful, that thou mayst give an answer to him that reproacheth.
हे मेरो छोरो, बुद्धिमान हो, र मेरो हृदयलाई आनन्दित तुल्या । तब मेरो खिल्ली उडाउनेलाई म जवाफ दिने छु ।
12 The prudent man seeing evil hideth himself: little ones passing on have suffered losses.
विवेकी मानिसले सङ्कष्ट देखेर आफैलाई लुकाउँछ, तर निर्बुद्धि अगाडि बढ्छ र त्यसैको कारण दुःख भोग्छ ।
13 Take away his garment that hath been surety for a stranger: and take from him a pledge for strangers.
परदेशीको जमानी बस्नेको खास्टो पनि खोस्नू, र त्यसले अनैतिक स्त्रीको लागि यसो गरेको भए त्यो धरौटी राख्नू ।
14 He that blesseth his neighbour with a loud voice, rising in the night, shall be like to him that curseth.
कसैले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई बिहान सबेरै चर्को सोरमा आशिष् दिन्छ भने, त्यो आशिष्लाई श्राप ठानिन्छ ।
15 Roofs dropping through in a cold day, and a contentious woman are alike.
झगडालु पत्नी वर्षाको समयमा एकहोरो तपतप चुहुने झरीजस्तै हो ।
16 He that retaineth her, is as he that would hold the wind, and shall call in the oil of his right hand.
त्यसलाई नियन्त्रण गर्नु बतासलाई नियन्त्रण गर्नुझैँ हो वा दाहिने हातमा तेललाई समात्नुझैँ हो ।
17 Iron sharpeneth iron, so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
फलामले फलामलाई उध्याउँछ । त्यसै गरी, मानिसले आफ्नो मित्रलाई उध्याउँछ ।
18 He that keepeth the fig tree, shall eat the fruit thereof: and he that is the keeper of his master, shall be glorified.
अञ्जीरको रुख गोडमेल गर्नेले यसको फल खाने छ, र आफ्नो गुरुको रक्षा गर्नेले आदर पाउँछ ।
19 As the faces of them that look therein, shine in the water, so-the hearts of men are laid open to the wise.
जसरी पानीले मानिसको अनुहार प्रतिबिम्बित गर्छ, त्यसै गरी मानिसको हृदयले उसको प्रतिबिम्बित गर्छ ।
जसरी पाताल र एब्बाड्डोन कहिल्यै सन्तुष्ट हुँदैनन्, त्यसै गरी मानिसका आँखा कहिल्यै सन्तुष्ट हुँदैनन् । (Sheol h7585)
21 As silver is tried in the fining-pot and gold in the furnace: so a man is tried by the mouth of him that praiseth. The heart of the wicked seeketh after evils, but the righteous heart seeketh after knowledge.
चाँदी पगाल्न भाँडो र सुन खार्न आरन हुन्छ, अनि मानिसको प्रशंसा हुँदा त्यसको जाँच हुन्छ ।
22 Though thou shouldst bray a fool in the mortar, as when a pestle striketh upon sodden barley, his folly would not be taken from him.
मूर्खलाई खलमा वा अन्नलाई झैँ जाँतोमा हालेर पिँधे तापनि त्यसको मूर्खता त्यसबाट हट्ने छैन ।
23 Be diligent to know the countenance of thy cattle, and consider thy own flocks:
तेरा भेडा-बाख्राहरूको अवस्था राम्ररी थाहा गर, र तेरा गाईवस्तुहरूको बारेमा ध्यान दे ।
24 For thou shalt not always have power: but a crown shall be given to generation and generation.
किनकि धन-सम्पत्ति सदाको लागि होइन । के मुकुट सबै पुस्ताभरि रहन्छ र?
25 The meadows are open, and the green herbs have appeared, and the hay is gathered out of the mountains.
पराल कहिले हटाइन्छ र नयाँ पालुवा कहिले पलाउँछ अनि डाँडापाखाबाट घाँस कहिले बटुलिन्छ भनी तँलाई थाहा हुनुपर्छ ।
26 Lambs are for thy clothing: and kids for the price of the field.
ती भेडाहरूले तेरो वस्त्र जुटाउने छन्, र बाख्राहरूले खेतको मूल्य जुटाउने छन् ।
27 Let the milk of the goats be enough for thy food, and for the necessities of thy house, and for maintenance for thy handmaids.
तँ र तेरो घरानाको भोजनको लागि बाख्रीको दूध उपलब्ध हुने छ र त्यो तेरा नोकर्नीहरूलाई पोषण हुने छ ।
