Proverbs 28
1 The wicked flee when none pursueth: but the righteous are bolde as a lyon.
Mibotatsake ty tsivokatse, ndra te tsy horidañeñe, fe mahafiato hoe liona tora’e o vañoñeo.
2 For the transgression of the land there are many princes thereof: but by a man of vnderstanding and knowledge a realme likewise endureth long.
Kanao miola ty tane, maro ty mpifele’e fe mahatam-pahendre’e t’indaty mahilala naho maharendreke,
3 A poore man, if he oppresse the poore, is like a raging raine, that leaueth no foode.
T’indaty rarake mamorekeke ty poi’e, le hoe oram-bey tsy manisa hane.
4 They that forsake the Law, prayse the wicked: but they that keepe the Law, set themselues against them.
Tsiririe’ o tsereheñeo ty mifary Hàke, f’ie atreatrè’ ty mahatàn-Kake.
5 Wicked men vnderstand not iudgemnt: but they that seeke the Lord vnderstand all things.
Tsy apota’ o ratio ty hatò, f’ie kila fohi’ ty mitsoeke Iehovà.
6 Better is the poore that walketh in his vprightnesse, then hee that peruerteth his wayes, though he be riche.
Hàmake te rarake mañavelo an-kavantañañe, ta te mpañefoefo mengok’ an-tsata.
7 He that keepeth the Law, is a childe of vnderstanding: but hee that feedeth the gluttons, shameth his father.
Mahatan-Kàke ty anake mahihitse, fe manalatse an-drae’e ty mirañetse amy mahake.
8 He that increaseth his riches by vsurie and interest, gathereth them for him that will be mercifull vnto the poore.
Ty mampitombo vara ami’ty fañonjona’e ty anam-bola angala’e ro manontoñe aze ho ami’ty miferenaiñe amo rarakeo.
9 He that turneth away his eare from hearing the Law, euen his prayer shalbe abominable.
I mitan-tsofy tsy hitsanoña’e Hake, tiva ka ty fisolohoa’e.
10 He that causeth the righteous to go astray by an euill way, shall fall into his owne pit, and the vpright shall inherite good things.
Hijoñe an-davake hinali’e ao avao ty mampandifike o vantañeo mb’an-dalan-karatiam-beo, fe ho soa lova o vañoñeo.
11 The riche man is wise in his owne conceite: but the poore that hath vnderstanding, can trie him.
Mahihitse am-pihaino’e ty mpañaleale, fe mahatsikarak’ aze ty rarake mahilala.
12 When righteous men reioyce, there is great glory: but when the wicked come vp, the man is tried.
Ipoñafen-drebeke te mandreketse ty vañoñe, fe mikafikafitse ondatio naho miongake ty lo-tsereke.
13 He that hideth his sinnes, shall not prosper: but he that confesseth, and forsaketh them, shall haue mercy.
Tsy hiraorao ty mañetake ty fiolà’e, fe ho tretrèzeñe ty misoloho naho mifoneñe.
14 Blessed is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart, shall fall into euill.
Haha t’indaty mitampompotse, fa hihotrak’ an-karatiañe ty gañe añ’arofo.
15 As a roaring lyon, and an hungry beare, so is a wicked ruler ouer the poore people.
Manahake ty fitrè’ i lionay naho i dobe mihitrihitry, ty mpifehe lo-tserek’ am’ondaty rarakeo.
16 A prince destitute of vnderstanding, is also a great oppressour: but hee that hateth couetousnes, shall prolong his dayes.
Po-hilala ty mpifehe mamorekeke, fe ho lava-havelo ty malaim-bara tsy mahity.
17 A man that doeth violence against the blood of a person, shall flee vnto the graue, and they shall not stay him.
Hahitrike mb’an-koboñe ao ty mivave lio-màliñe, tsy eo ty hañimb’aze.
18 He that walketh vprightly, shalbe saued: but he that is froward in his wayes, shall once fall.
Ho rombaheñe ty mañavelo an-kalio-tahiñe, fe hikorovoke aniany ty mañorike lala-mengoke.
19 He that tilleth his land, shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth the idle, shall be filled with pouertie.
Ho enen-kaneñe ty miava ty tane’e, fe hizò hararahañe ty mpañeañe hakoahañe.
20 A faythfull man shall abound in blessings, and he that maketh haste to be riche, shall not be innocent.
Ho soa tata t’indaty migahiñe, fe tsy ho po-lafa ty mihepakepake ho mpitsikafo.
21 To haue respect of persons is not good: for that man will transgresse for a piece of bread.
Tsy soa ty mirihy, naho mete hampandilatse ondaty ty mofo pila’e.
22 A man with a wicked eye hasteth to riches, and knoweth not, that pouertie shall come vpon him.
Mpañeam-bara ty ama’ maso-migioke, fe tsy rendre’e te hiambotraha’ ty hararahañe.
23 He that rebuketh a man, shall finde more fauour at length, then he that flattereth with his tongue.
Hanjo fañisohañe am-para’e ty mañendake ondaty, mandikoatse ty mpanao kabeake am-pameleke.
24 Hee that robbeth his father and mother, and sayth, It is no transgression, is the companion of a man that destroyeth.
Ze mampikametse aman-drae’e ndra aman-drene’e vaho manao ty hoe: Tsy fiolàñe izay; ro mpiami’ ty mpijoy.
25 He that is of a proude heart, stirreth vp strife: but he that trusteth in the Lord, shall be fatte.
Mpitrobo fitrabihañe ty mpitrotroaboke, fe miraorao ze miato am’ Iehovà.
26 Hee that trusteth in his owne heart, is a foole: but he that walketh in wisdome, shall be deliuered.
Minè ty miato aman-tro’e, fe haha ty mañavelo an-kihitse.
27 He that giueth vnto the poore, shall not lacke: but he that hideth his eyes, shall haue many curses.
Ho tampe-draha-irieñe ty mamahañe o rarakeo, fe hizò fatse maro ty mikipe maso.
28 When the wicked rise vp, men hide them selues: but when they perish, ye righteous increase.
Ie mitroatse o lo-tserekeo, mietake ondatio; fa ie mihomake, le mihavelo o vañoñeo.
