Proverbs 29
1 The man that with a stiff neck despiseth him that reproveth him, shall suddenly be destroyed: and health shall not follow him.
Toelthamnah a om lalah a rhawn aka mangkhak sak hlang tah hoeihnah om kolla pahoi khaem ni.
2 When just men increase, the people shall rejoice: when the wicked shall bear rule, the people shall mourn.
Hlang dueng a pul vaengah pilnam a kohoe. Tedae halang loh a taemrhai vaengah pilnam huei.
3 A man that loveth wisdom, rejoiceth his father: but he that maintaineth bar lots, shall squander away his substance.
Cueihnah aka lungnah hlang loh a napa ko a hoe sak. Tedae pumyoi neh aka luem loh boeirhaeng khaw a milh sak.
4 A just king setteth up the land: a covetous man shall destroy it.
Tiktamnah dongah ni manghai loh khohmuen a pai sak. Tedae kapbaih aka ca hlang loh khohmuen a koengloeng.
5 A man that speaketh to his friend with flattering and dissembling words, spreadeth a net for his feet.
A hui taengah aka hoem hlang khaw amah khokan dongah ni lawk a tung coeng.
6 A snare shall entangle the wicked man when he sinneth: and the just shall praise and rejoice.
Hlang boethae loh boekoeknah neh hlaeh a tung. Tedae aka dueng tah tamhoe tih a kohoe.
7 The just taketh notice of the cause of the poor: the wicked is void of knowledge.
Aka dueng long tah tattloel kah dumlai a ming pah. Halang long tah mingnah pataeng a yakming moenih.
8 Corrupt men bring a city to ruin: but wise men turn away wrath.
Saipaat hlang rhoek loh khorha a sat. Tedae hlang cueih rhoek long tah thintoek pataeng a dolh.
9 If a wise man contend with a fool, whether he be angry or laugh, he shall find no rest.
Hlang cueih loh hlang ang taengah lai a thui. Tedae a tlai phoeiah tah luem puei cakhaw mongnah om mahpawh.
10 Bloodthirsty men hate the upright: but just men seek his soul.
Thii aka hal hlang rhoek loh cuemthuek te a hmuhuet uh. Tedae aka thuem rhoek long tah a hinglu a toem pah.
11 A fool uttereth all his mind: a wise man deferreth, and keepeth it till afterwards.
Aka ang loh a mueihla khaw boeih a poh. Tedae aka cueih long tah a hnuk ah domyok a ti.
12 A prince that gladly heareth lying words, hath all his servants wicked.
A hong ol aka hnatung loh a taemrhai vaengah, a bibi rhoek khaw boeih halang uh.
13 The poor man and the creditor have met one another: the Lord is the enlightener of them both.
Khodaeng neh hlang kah a hnaephnapnah a humcui rhoi vaengah, BOEIPA loh a boktlap la mik a tueng sak.
14 The king that judgeth the poor in truth, his throne shall be established for ever.
A ngolkhoel cikngae yoeyah sak ham atah, tattloel ham khaw manghai loh oltak neh lai a tloek pah.
15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but the child that is left to his own will bringeth his mother to shame.
Cungcik neh toelthamnah loh cueihnah a paek. Tedae a hlahpham camoe loh a manu yah a bai.
16 When the wicked are multiplied, crimes shall be multiplied: but the just shall see their downfall.
Halang rhoek a pul vaengah boekoek khaw pul. Tedae aka dueng long tah amih a cungkunah lam ni a hmuh eh.
17 Instruct thy son, and he shall refresh thee, and shall give delight to thy soul.
Na capa te toel lamtah na duem bitni. Na hinglu ham khaw buhmong m'paek ni.
18 When prophecy shall fail, the people shall be scattered abroad: but he that keepeth the law is blessed.
Mangthui a om pawt atah pilnam khaw pam. Tedae olkhueng aka ngaithuen tah a yoethen pai.
19 A slave will not be corrected by words: because he understandeth what thou sayest, and will not answer.
Ol bueng neh sal a toel thai moenih. Yakming cakhaw hlat hae mahpawh.
20 Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.
A ol neh aka cahawt hlang khaw na hmuh coeng. Anih lakah hlang ang taengah ngaiuepnah om ngai.
21 He that nourisheth his servant delicately from his childhood, afterwards shall find him stubborn.
A sal te a camoe lamloh aka dom tah, a hmailong ah khoemtloel la a coeng pah ni.
22 A passionate man provoketh quarrels: and he that is easily stirred up to wrath, shall be more prone to sin.
Thintoek hlang loh olpungkacan a huek tih, kosi boei khaw boekoek la muep om.
23 Humiliation followeth the proud: and glory shall uphold the humble of spirit.
Hlang kah a hoemnah loh amah a kunyun sak. Te dongah a mueihla tlarhoel tah thangpomnah loh a moem.
24 He that is partaker with a thief, hateth his own soul: he heareth one putting him to his oath, and discovereth not.
Hlanghuen taengah boe aka soep tah, a hinglu ni a hmuhuet coeng. Thaephoeinah ya cakhaw, thui thai mahpawh.
25 He that feareth man, shall quickly fall: he that trusteth in the Lord, shall be set on high.
Hlang kah thuennah loh hlaeh ni a tung eh. Tedae BOEIPA dongah aka pangtung tah sueng.
26 Many seek the face of the prince: but the judgment of every one cometh forth from the Lord.
Aka taemrhai kah maelhmai khaw muep a tlap uh. Tedae hlang taengkah laitloeknah tah BOEIPA hut ni.
27 The just abhor the wicked man: and the wicked loathe them that are in the right way. The son that keepeth the word, shall be free from destruction.
Hlang dueng long tah dumlai te tueilaehkoi a ti. Tedae halang long tah longpuei aka thuem te tueilaehkoi a ti van.
