Proverbs 13
1 A wise sonne will obey the instruction of his father: but a scorner will heare no rebuke.
Palungha caa loe ampa thuitaekhaih lok to tahngaih; toe minawk padaeng thaih kami loe thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai ai.
2 A man shall eate good things by the fruite of his mouth: but the soule of the trespassers shall suffer violence.
Kami loe angmah pahni ih athaih kahoih to caa tih; toe zaehaih sah kami loe athii palonghaih athaih to caa tih.
3 Hee that keepeth his mouth, keepeth his life: but he that openeth his lips, destruction shall be to him.
Pahni angsum kami loe a hinghaih cuem kami ah oh; pakha kawkah aang kami loe amro tih.
4 The sluggard lusteth, but his soule hath nought: but the soule of the diligent shall haue plentie.
Thasae kami loe a koehhaih baktiah tidoeh tawn ai; thahoih kami loe a koehhaih to hak tih.
5 A righteous man hateth lying wordes: but the wicked causeth slander and shame.
Katoeng kami loe lok amlaihaih to hnukma; toe kasae kami loe panuet thoh moe, azathaih to ohsak.
6 Righteousnesse preserueth the vpright of life: but wickednes ouerthroweth the sinner.
Loklam amkhraeng ai kami loe toenghaih mah toep; toe kahoih ai kami mah loe kami kazae to amtimsak.
7 There is that maketh himselfe riche, and hath nothing, and that maketh himselfe poore, hauing great riches.
Angraeng ah angsah, tidoeh tawn ai kami to oh moe, kamtang ah angsah, angraeng parai kami doeh oh.
8 A man will giue his riches for the ransome of his life: but the poore cannot heare ye reproch.
Angraeng loe angraenghaih hoiah a hinghaih to akrang han oh; toe amtang kami loe thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai mak ai.
9 The light of the righteous reioyceth: but the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
Katoeng kami aanghaih loe anghoehaih ah oh; toe kasae kami ih hmaiim loe dueh ving tih.
10 Onely by pride doeth man make contention: but with the well aduised is wisdome.
Amoekhaih mah angzoehhaih to tacawtsak; toe palungha kami loe acoe paekhaih lok to tahngaih.
11 The riches of vanitie shall diminish: but he that gathereth with the hand, shall increase them.
Azom ah hak ih phoisa loe anghma zuep tih; toe toksak moe, patung ih phoisa loe pung aep tih.
12 The hope that is deferred, is the fainting of the heart: but when the desire commeth, it is as a tree of life.
Oephaih anghmat ving naah poekhaih angpho; toe koehhaih acung naah loe, hinghaih thingkung ah oh.
13 He that despiseth the worde, hee shall be destroyed: but hee that feareth the commandement he shalbe rewarded.
Thuitaekhaih lok patoek kami loe amro tih; toe paek ih lok khingya kami loe tangqum to hnu tih.
14 The instruction of a wise man is as the welspring of life, to turne away from the snares of death.
Palungha kami patukhaih lok loe, duekhaih thaang thung hoi loih hanah, hinghaih tuipuek ah oh.
15 Good vnderstanding maketh acceptable: but the way of the disobedient is hated.
Kahoih panoekhaih tawn kami loe minawk hmaa ah mikhmai pan tih; toe kasae kami ih loklam loe rai.
16 Euery wise man will worke by knowledge: but a foole will spread abroade folly.
Palungha kami loe palunghahaih hoiah toksak; toe kamthu loe amthuhaih to amtuengsak.
17 A wicked messenger falleth into euill: but a faithfull ambassadour is preseruation.
Kahoih ai laicaeh loe raihaih thungah amtim; toe oepthok laicaeh loe ngantuihaih ah oh.
18 Pouertie and shame is to him that refuseth instruction: but hee that regardeth correction, shalbe honoured.
Thuitaekhaih tahngai ai kami loe amtanghaih hoi azathaih mah pha thui tih; toe thuitaekhaih lok tahngai kami loe pakoehaih to hnu tih.
19 A desire accomplished deliteth ye soule: but it is an abomination to fooles to depart from euil.
Koeh acunghaih loe hing thung kawkruk maw khosak hoih! Toe kahoih ai hmuen caeh taakhaih loe amthu kaminawk hanah panuet thok hmuen ah oh.
20 He that walketh with the wise, shalbe wise: but a companion of fooles shalbe afflicted.
Palungha hoi angkom kami loe palungha tih; toe kamthu hoi angkom kami loe amro tih.
21 Affliction followeth sinners: but vnto the righteous God will recompense good.
Kazae kaminawk loe sethaih mah hnukah patom; toe katoeng kaminawk loe tahamhoihaih tangqum to hnu o tih.
22 The good man shall giue inheritance vnto his childrens children: and the riches of the sinner is layde vp for the iust.
Kahoih kami loe a caanawk ih caa patoeng hanah, qawk to caeh taak; toe kami zae loe katoeng kaminawk han ih ni hmuenmae to patung pae.
23 Much foode is in the fielde of the poore: but the fielde is destroyed without discretion.
Amtang kami ih lawk loe cang hoih parai; toe anih to aling o pongah amro boih.
24 He that spareth his rodde, hateth his sonne: but he that loueth him, chasteneth him betime.
Quiboeng patoh ai kami loe, a caa hnuma kami ah oh; toe caa palung kami loe, nawkta nathuem hoiah thuitaekhaih to tawnh.
25 The righteous eateth to the contentation of his minde: but the belly of the wicked shall want.
Katoeng kami loe a hing hanah buhcaak; toe kasae kami loe zok amthlam tih.
