Proverbs 15
1 A soft answere putteth away wrath: but grieuous wordes stirre vp anger.
| الْجَوَابُ اللَّيِّنُ يُبَدِّدُ الْغَضَبَ، وَالْكَلِمَةُ الْقَارِصَةُ تُهَيِّجُ السَّخَطَ. | ١ |
2 The tongue of the wise vseth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fooles babbleth out foolishnesse.
| لِسَانُ الْحَكِيمِ يُتْقِنُ الْمَعْرِفَةَ، وَأَقْوَالُ الْجُهَّالِ تَفِيضُ حَمَاقَةً. | ٢ |
3 The eyes of the Lord in euery place beholde the euill and the good.
| عَيْنَا الرَّبِّ فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ تُرَاقِبَانِ الأَشْرَارَ وَالأَخْيَارَ. | ٣ |
4 A wholesome tongue is as a tree of life: but the frowardnes therof is the breaking of ye minde.
| اللِّسَانُ السَّلِيمُ يُنْعِشُ كَشَجَرَةِ حَيَاةٍ، وَاعْوِجَاجُهُ يُؤَدِّي إِلَى انْكِسَارِ الرُّوحِ. | ٤ |
5 A foole despiseth his fathers instruction: but he that regardeth correction, is prudent.
| الْجَاهِلُ يَسْتَخِفُّ بِتَأْدِيبِ أَبِيهِ، أَمَّا الْعَاقِلُ فَيَقْبَلُ التَّأْدِيبَ. | ٥ |
6 The house of the righteous hath much treasure: but in the reuenues of the wicked is trouble.
| فِي بَيْتِ الصِّدِّيقِ كَنْزٌ نَفِيسٌ، وَفِي دَخْلِ الأَشْرَارِ بَلِيَّةٌ. | ٦ |
7 The lippes of the wise doe spread abroade knowledge: but ye heart of the foolish doth not so.
| أَقْوَالُ شِفَاهِ الْحُكَمَاءِ تَنْشُرُ الْمَعْرِفَةَ، أَمَّا قُلُوبُ الْجُهَّالِ فَتَنْبُعُ حَمَاقَةً. | ٧ |
8 The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination to the Lord: but the prayer of the righteous is acceptable vnto him.
| قُرْبَانُ الْمُنَافِقِينَ مَكْرَهَةُ الرَّبِّ، وَمَسَرَّتُهُ صَلاةُ الْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ. | ٨ |
9 The way of the wicked is an abomination vnto the Lord: but he loueth him that followeth righteousnes.
| سُلُوكُ الشِّرِّيرِ رِجْسٌ لَدَى الرَّبِّ، وَمَحَبَّتُهُ لِمَنْ يَتْبَعُ الْبِرَّ. | ٩ |
10 Instruction is euill to him that forsaketh the way, and he that hateth correction, shall die.
| الْمُنْحَرِفُ عَنْ طَرِيقِ الرَّبِّ يُجَازَى بِالتَّأْدِيبِ الْقَاسِي، وَمَنْ يَمْقُتُ التَّقْوِيمَ يَمُوتُ. | ١٠ |
11 Hell and destruction are before the Lord: how much more the hearts of the sonnes of men? (Sheol h7585)
| أَعْمَاقُ الْهَاوِيَةِ وَالْهَلاكِ مَكْشُوفَةٌ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، فَكَمْ بِالْحَرِيِّ قُلُوبُ أَبْنَاءِ الْبَشَرِ. (Sheol h7585) | ١١ |
12 A scorner loueth not him that rebuketh him, neither will he goe vnto the wise.
| الْمُسْتَهْزِئُ يَكْرَهُ التَّوْبِيخَ، وَلا يَلْجَأُ إِلَى الْحُكَمَاءِ. | ١٢ |
13 A ioyfull heart maketh a chearefull countenance: but by the sorow of the heart the minde is heauie.
| الْقَلْبُ الْفَرِحُ يَجْعَلُ الْوَجْهَ طَلِقاً، وَبِكَآبَةِ الْقَلْبِ تَنْسَحِقُ الرُّوحُ. | ١٣ |
14 The heart of him that hath vnderstanding, seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of the foole is fedde with foolishnes.
| قَلْبُ الْحَكِيمِ يَلْتَمِسُ الْمَعْرِفَةَ، وَفَمُ الْجَاهِلِ يَرْعَى حَمَاقَةً. | ١٤ |
15 All the dayes of the afflicted are euill: but a good conscience is a continuall feast.
| جَمِيعُ أَيَّامِ الْبَائِسِ شَقِيَّةٌ، أَمَّا طَيِّبُ الْقَلْبِ فَالتَّوْفِيقُ الدَّائِمُ حَلِيفُهُ. | ١٥ |
16 Better is a litle with the feare of the Lord, then great treasure, and trouble therewith.
| قَلِيلٌ مِنَ الْمَالِ مَعْ تَقْوَى الرَّبِّ خَيْرٌ مِنْ كَنْزٍ عَظِيمٍ يُخَالِطُهُ هَمٌّ. | ١٦ |
17 Better is a dinner of greene herbes where loue is, then a stalled oxe and hatred therewith.
| أَكْلَةٌ مِنَ الْبُقُولِ فِي جَوٍّ مُشَبَّعٍ بِالْمَحَبَّةِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَكْلِ وَجْبَةٍ مِنْ لَحْمِ عِجْلٍ مَعْلُوفٍ فِي جَوٍّ مِنَ الْبَغْضَاءِ. | ١٧ |
18 An angrie man stirreth vp strife: but hee that is slowe to wrath, appeaseth strife.
| الرَّجُلُ الْغَضُوبُ يُثِيرُ الْخُصُومَةَ، وَالطَّويِلُ الأَنَاةِ يُسَكِّنُ النِّزَاعَ. | ١٨ |
19 The way of a slouthfull man is as an hedge of thornes: but the way of the righteous is plaine.
| طَرِيقُ الْكَسُولِ مَمْلُوءٌ بِالْمَتَاعِبِ، أَمَّا سَبِيلُ الْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ فَمُمَهَّدٌ. | ١٩ |
20 A wise sonne reioyceth the father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother.
| الابْنُ الْحَكِيمُ يَسُرُّ أَبَاهُ وَالْجَاهِلُ يَحْتَقِرُ أُمَّهُ. | ٢٠ |
21 Foolishnes is ioy to him that is destitute of vnderstanding: but a man of vnderstanding walketh vprightly.
| الْحَمَاقَةُ مَصْدَرُ فَرَحٍ لِلْغَبِيِّ، أَمَّا الْفَهِيمُ فَيَسْلُكُ بِاسْتِقَامَةٍ. | ٢١ |
22 Without cousel thoughts come to nought: but in the multitude of counsellers there is stedfastnesse.
| تُخْفِقُ الْمَقَاصِدُ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَشُورَةٍ، وَتُفْلِحُ بِكَثْرَةِ الْمُشِيرِينَ. | ٢٢ |
23 A ioy commeth to a man by the answere of his mouth: and how good is a word in due season?
| الْجَوَابُ الْمُلائِمُ يُفَرِّحُ الإِنْسَانَ، وَمَا أَحْسَنَ الْكَلِمَةَ فِي حِينِهَا. | ٢٣ |
| طَرِيقُ الإِنْسَانِ الْحَكِيمِ تَرْتَقِي بِهِ صُعُوداً نَحْوَ الْحَيَاةِ، لِكَيْ يَتَفَادَى الْهَاوِيَةَ مِنْ تَحْتُ. (Sheol h7585) | ٢٤ |
25 The Lord will destroye the house of the proude men: but hee will stablish the borders of the widowe.
| يَسْتَأْصِلُ الرَّبُّ بَيْتَ الْمُتَغَطْرِسِينَ، وَيُوَطِّدُ تُخْمَ الأَرْمَلَةِ. | ٢٥ |
26 The thoughts of ye wicked are abomination to the Lord: but the pure haue pleasant wordes.
| نَوَايَا الأَشْرَارِ رِجْسٌ لَدَى الرَّبِّ، وَفِي أَقْوَالِ الأَطْهَارِ مَسَرَّتُهُ. | ٢٦ |
27 He that is greedie of gaine, troubleth his owne house: but he that hateth giftes, shall liue.
| الْحَرِيصُ عَلَى الْكَسْبِ يَجْلِبُ الْمَتَاعِبَ لِبَيْتِهِ، وَمَنْ يَكْرَهُ الرِّشْوَةَ يَحْيَا. | ٢٧ |
28 The heart of the righteous studieth to answere: but the wicked mans mouth babbleth euil thinges.
| قَلْبُ الصِّدِّيقِ يَتَمَعَّنُ فِي الْجَوَابِ، أَمَّا أَفْوَاهُ الأَشْرَارِ فَتَتَدَفَّقُ بِالْخَبَائِثِ. | ٢٨ |
29 The Lord is farre off from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
| الرَّبُّ بَعِيدٌ عَنِ الأَشْرَارِ، إِنَّمَا يَسْمَعُ صَلاةَ الأَبْرَارِ. | ٢٩ |
30 The light of the eyes reioyceth the heart, and a good name maketh the bones fat.
| الْبَهْجَةُ الْمُتَأَلِّقَةُ فِي الْعَيْنَيْنِ تُفْرِحُ قَلْبَ الصِّدِّيقِ، وَالْخَبَرُ الطَّيِّبُ يُنْعِشُ النَّفْسَ. | ٣٠ |
31 The eare that hearkeneth to the correction of life, shall lodge among the wise.
| ذُو الأُذُنِ الْمُسْتَمِعَةِ إِلَى التَّوْبِيخِ الْمُحْيِي يَمْكُثُ بَيْنَ الْحُكَمَاءِ. | ٣١ |
32 Hee that refuseth instruction, despiseth his owne soule: but he that obeyeth correction, getteth vnderstanding.
| مَنْ يَتَجَاهَلُ التَّأْدِيبَ يَحْتَقِرُ نَفْسَهُ، وَمَنْ يَسْتَجِيبُ لَهُ يَقْتَنِي فَهْماً. | ٣٢ |
33 The feare of the Lord is the instruction of wisdome: and before honour, goeth humilitie.
| تَقْوَى الرَّبِّ تَأْدِيبُ حِكْمَةٍ، وَقَبْلَ الْحُظْوَةِ بِالْكَرَامَةِ يَكُونُ التَّوَاضُعُ. | ٣٣ |
