Proverbs 29
1 A man that hardeneth his necke when he is rebuked, shall suddenly be destroyed and can not be cured.
Mũndũ ũrĩa ũikaraga omĩtie ngingo thuutha wa kũrũithio maita maingĩ, akaanangwo o rĩmwe, na aage kĩhonia.
2 When the righteous are in authoritie, the people reioyce: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people sigh.
Rĩrĩa andũ arĩa athingu matheerema, andũ nĩmakenaga; no rĩrĩa andũ arĩa aaganu maathana, andũ nĩgũcaaya macaayaga.
3 A man that loueth wisdome, reioyceth his father: but he that feedeth harlots, wasteth his substance.
Mũndũ ũrĩa wendete ũũgĩ atũũragia ithe na gĩkeno, no mũndũ ũrĩa ũceeraga na maraya nĩgũitanga aitangaga ũtonga wake.
4 A King by iudgement mainteineth ye countrey: but a man receiuing giftes, destroyeth it.
Mũthamaki ũrĩ matuĩro ma kĩhooto aikaragia bũrũri ũrĩ mwĩkindĩru, no ũrĩa ũkorokagĩra mahaki nĩ kwananga awanangaga.
5 A man that flattereth his neighbour, spreadeth a net for his steps.
Mũndũ ũrĩa wĩyendithagĩrĩria harĩ mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake na maheeni, nĩ wabu aambagĩra magũrũ make.
6 In the transgression of an euill man is his snare: but the righteous doeth sing and reioyce.
Mũndũ mwaganu ategagwo nĩ mehia make we mwene, no mũndũ mũthingu ainaga na agakena.
7 The righteous knoweth the cause of the poore: but the wicked regardeth not knowledge.
Andũ arĩa athingu nĩmamenyagĩrĩra kĩhooto kĩa arĩa athĩĩni, no arĩa aaganu matirũmbũyagia kĩhooto kĩao.
8 Scornefull men bring a citie into a snare: but wise men turne away wrath.
Anyũrũrania matũmaga itũũra inene rĩrĩmbũke ta mwaki, no andũ oogĩ nĩkũniina maniinaga marakara.
9 If a wise man contend with a foolish man, whether he be angry or laugh, there is no rest.
Mũndũ mũũgĩ angĩthiĩ igooti-inĩ na mũndũ mũkĩĩgu, mũndũ mũkĩĩgu arĩrĩmbũkaga nĩ marakara na akanyũrũrania, naguo thayũ ũkaaga.
10 Bloodie men hate him that is vpright: but the iust haue care of his soule.
Andũ arĩa maitaga thakame nĩmathũire mũndũ mwĩhokeku, no andũ arĩa arũngĩrĩru macaragia ũrĩa mangĩtiirĩrĩra muoyo wake.
11 A foole powreth out all his minde: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterward.
Mũndũ mũkĩĩgu aitũrũraga marakara make mothe, no mũndũ mũũgĩ aikaraga amarigĩrĩirie, akahoorera.
12 Of a prince that hearkeneth to lyes, all his seruants are wicked.
Mũndũ ũrĩa wathanaga angĩthikĩrĩria maheeni-rĩ, anene ake othe matuĩkaga andũ aaganu.
13 The poore and the vsurer meete together, and the Lord lighteneth both their eyes.
Mũndũ mũthĩĩni na mũndũ mũhinyanĩrĩria harĩ ũndũ ũmwe ũmahaananĩtie: Jehova nĩwe ũtũmaga maitho mao eerĩ moone.
14 A King that iudgeth the poore in trueth, his throne shalbe established for euer.
Mũthamaki angĩtuĩra athĩĩni ciira na kĩhooto-rĩ, gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene gĩtũũraga kĩrũmĩte nginya tene.
15 The rodde and correction giue wisdome: but a childe set a libertie, maketh his mother ashamed.
Rũthanju na kũrũithio ciĩkagĩra mũndũ ũũgĩ, no mwana wa kũrekererio aconorithagia nyina.
16 When the wicked are increased, transgression increaseth: but ye righteous shall see their fall.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ aaganu matheerema, noguo mehia matheeremaga, no andũ arĩa athingu nĩmakerorera igwa rĩao.
17 Correct thy sonne and he will giue thee rest, and will giue pleasures to thy soule.
Herithagia mũrũguo, na nĩagatũma ũgĩe na thayũ; nĩagatũma ũgĩe na gĩkeno ngoro-inĩ.
18 Where there is no vision, the people decay: but he that keepeth the Lawe, is blessed.
Kũrĩa gũtarĩ na ũguũrio, kĩrĩndĩ gĩticookaga kwĩrigĩrĩria; no gũkena nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũrũmagia watho.
19 A seruant will not be chastised with words: though he vnderstand, yet he will not answere.
Ndungata ndĩngĩhera nĩ kwarĩrio gũtheri; o na ĩngĩtaũkĩrwo nĩ ũhoro ndĩngĩũrũmbũiya.
20 Seest thou a man hastie in his matters? there is more hope of a foole, then of him.
Wanona mũndũ ũhiũhaga kwaria? Mũndũ mũkĩĩgu arĩ na kĩĩrĩgĩrĩro kũmũkĩra.
21 He that delicately bringeth vp his seruant from youth, at length he will be euen as his sone.
Mũndũ angĩnania ndungata yake kuuma wĩthĩ wayo, marigĩrĩrio-inĩ nĩĩkamũrehera kĩeha.
22 An angrie man stirreth vp strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
Mũndũ wa marakara aarahũraga ngarari, nake mũndũ wa marũrũ agĩĩaga na mehia maingĩ.
23 The pride of a man shall bring him lowe: but the humble in spirit shall enioy glory.
Mwĩtĩĩo wa mũndũ nĩũmũnyiihagia, no mũndũ ũrĩa wa ngoro ya kwĩnyiihia nĩagatĩĩo.
24 He that is partner with a thiefe, hateth his owne soule: he heareth cursing, and declareth it not.
Mũndũ wa kũgĩa thiritũ na mũici nĩ muoyo wake mwene athũire; ehĩtithagio na ndangĩruta ũira.
25 The feare of man bringeth a snare: but he that trusteth in the Lord, shalbe exalted.
Gwĩtigĩra mũndũ gũtuĩkaga mũtego, no ũrĩa wĩhokaga Jehova aikaraga arĩ mũgitĩre.
26 Many doe seeke the face of the ruler: but euery mans iudgement commeth from the Lord.
Andũ aingĩ nĩmacaragia kũiguuo nĩ mũnene, no mũndũ oonaga kĩhooto kuuma kũrĩ Jehova.
27 A wicked man is abomination to the iust, and he that is vpright in his way, is abomination to the wicked.
Andũ arĩa athingu monaga andũ arĩa matarĩ ehokeku ta kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi; nao andũ arĩa aaganu moonaga andũ arĩa arũngĩrĩru ta kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi.
