Proverbs 13
1 A wise sonne will obey the instruction of his father: but a scorner will heare no rebuke.
Ọlọ́gbọ́n ọmọ gba ẹ̀kọ́ baba rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ẹlẹ́gàn kò gbọ́ ìbáwí.
2 A man shall eate good things by the fruite of his mouth: but the soule of the trespassers shall suffer violence.
Láti inú èso ẹnu rẹ̀ ènìyàn ń gbádùn ohun rere, ṣùgbọ́n, ìfẹ́ ọkàn aláìṣòótọ́ ní ìwà ipá.
3 Hee that keepeth his mouth, keepeth his life: but he that openeth his lips, destruction shall be to him.
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ṣọ́ ẹnu rẹ̀ pa ẹnu ara rẹ̀ mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó ń sọ̀rọ̀ gbàù gbàù yóò parun.
4 The sluggard lusteth, but his soule hath nought: but the soule of the diligent shall haue plentie.
Ọkàn ọ̀lẹ ń fẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n kò rí nǹkan kan, ṣùgbọ́n ọkàn àwọn ti kì í ṣe ọ̀lẹ rí ìtẹ́lọ́rùn.
5 A righteous man hateth lying wordes: but the wicked causeth slander and shame.
Olódodo kórìíra ohun tí í ṣe irọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn búburú hu ìwà ìríra àti ìtìjú.
6 Righteousnesse preserueth the vpright of life: but wickednes ouerthroweth the sinner.
Òdodo ń ṣamọ̀nà ènìyàn olóòtítọ́ inú, ṣùgbọ́n ìwà búburú ṣí ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ní ipò.
7 There is that maketh himselfe riche, and hath nothing, and that maketh himselfe poore, hauing great riches.
Ènìyàn kan díbọ́n bí ẹni tí ó ní ọrọ̀ síbẹ̀ kò ní nǹkan kan ẹlòmíràn díbọ́n bí i tálákà, síbẹ̀ ó ní ọrọ̀ púpọ̀.
8 A man will giue his riches for the ransome of his life: but the poore cannot heare ye reproch.
Ọrọ̀ ènìyàn le è ra ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n tálákà kì í gbọ́ ìdẹ́rùbà.
9 The light of the righteous reioyceth: but the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
Ìmọ́lẹ̀ olódodo tàn roro, ṣùgbọ́n fìtílà ènìyàn búburú ni a pa kú.
10 Onely by pride doeth man make contention: but with the well aduised is wisdome.
Ìgbéraga máa ń dá ìjà sílẹ̀ ni ṣùgbọ́n ọgbọ́n wà nínú àwọn tí ń gba ìmọ̀ràn.
11 The riches of vanitie shall diminish: but he that gathereth with the hand, shall increase them.
Owó tí a fi ọ̀nà èrú kójọ yóò ṣí lọ, ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ń kó owó jọ díẹ̀díẹ̀ yóò pọ̀ sí i.
12 The hope that is deferred, is the fainting of the heart: but when the desire commeth, it is as a tree of life.
Ìrètí tí ń falẹ̀ máa ń mú kí ọkàn ṣàárẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n ìrètí tí a rí gbà jẹ́ igi ìyè.
13 He that despiseth the worde, hee shall be destroyed: but hee that feareth the commandement he shalbe rewarded.
Ẹni tí ó kẹ́gàn ẹ̀kọ́ yóò jìyà rẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó pa àṣẹ mọ́ gba èrè rẹ̀.
14 The instruction of a wise man is as the welspring of life, to turne away from the snares of death.
Ìkọ́ni ọlọ́gbọ́n jẹ́ orísun ìyè, tí ń yí ènìyàn padà kúrò nínú ìdẹ̀kùn ikú.
15 Good vnderstanding maketh acceptable: but the way of the disobedient is hated.
Òye pípé ń mú ni rí ojúrere, ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀nà aláìṣòótọ́ kì í tọ́jọ́.
16 Euery wise man will worke by knowledge: but a foole will spread abroade folly.
Gbogbo olóye ènìyàn máa ń hùwà pẹ̀lú ìmọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n aláìgbọ́n a fi ìwà òmùgọ̀ rẹ̀ hàn.
17 A wicked messenger falleth into euill: but a faithfull ambassadour is preseruation.
Ìránṣẹ́ búburú bọ́ sínú ìdààmú ṣùgbọ́n aṣojú olóòtítọ́ mú ìwòsàn wá.
18 Pouertie and shame is to him that refuseth instruction: but hee that regardeth correction, shalbe honoured.
Ẹni tí ó kọ ìbáwí yóò di tálákà yóò sì rí ìtìjú, ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó gbọ́ ìbáwí ni yóò rí ọlá.
19 A desire accomplished deliteth ye soule: but it is an abomination to fooles to depart from euil.
Ìfẹ́ tí a mú ṣẹ dùn mọ́ ọkàn ṣùgbọ́n ìríra ni fún aṣiwèrè láti kúrò nínú ibi.
20 He that walketh with the wise, shalbe wise: but a companion of fooles shalbe afflicted.
Ẹni tí ó ń bá ọlọ́gbọ́n rìn yóò gbọ́n ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ń bá aláìgbọ́n kẹ́gbẹ́ ń pa ara rẹ̀ lára.
21 Affliction followeth sinners: but vnto the righteous God will recompense good.
Òsì a máa ta ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ọrọ̀ ni èrè fún olódodo.
22 The good man shall giue inheritance vnto his childrens children: and the riches of the sinner is layde vp for the iust.
Ènìyàn rere a máa fi ogún sílẹ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ ọmọ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n, a kó ọrọ̀ àwọn tó dẹ́ṣẹ̀ pamọ́ fún àwọn olódodo.
23 Much foode is in the fielde of the poore: but the fielde is destroyed without discretion.
Ilẹ̀ ẹ tálákà le è mú ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìre oko wá ṣùgbọ́n àìṣòdodo gbá gbogbo rẹ̀ lọ.
24 He that spareth his rodde, hateth his sonne: but he that loueth him, chasteneth him betime.
Ẹni tí ó fa ọwọ́ ìbáwí sẹ́yìn kórìíra ọmọ rẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó fẹ́ràn ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò máa bá a wí.
25 The righteous eateth to the contentation of his minde: but the belly of the wicked shall want.
Olódodo jẹ́wọ́ títí ó fi tẹ́ ọkàn rẹ̀ lọ́rùn ṣùgbọ́n ebi yóò máa pa ikùn ènìyàn búburú.
