Proverbs 29
1 A man that hardeneth his necke when he is rebuked, shall suddenly be destroyed and can not be cured.
Èovjek koji po karanju ostaje tvrdoglav, ujedanput æe propasti, da neæe biti lijeka.
2 When the righteous are in authoritie, the people reioyce: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people sigh.
Kad se umnožavaju pravednici, veseli se narod; a kad vlada bezbožnik, uzdiše narod.
3 A man that loueth wisdome, reioyceth his father: but he that feedeth harlots, wasteth his substance.
Ko ljubi mudrost, veseli oca svojega; a ko se druži s kurvama, rasipa svoje dobro.
4 A King by iudgement mainteineth ye countrey: but a man receiuing giftes, destroyeth it.
Car pravdom podiže zemlju; a ko uzima mito, satire je.
5 A man that flattereth his neighbour, spreadeth a net for his steps.
Ko laska prijatelju svojemu, razapinje mrežu nogama njegovijem.
6 In the transgression of an euill man is his snare: but the righteous doeth sing and reioyce.
U grijehu je zla èovjeka zamka, a pravednik pjeva i veseli se.
7 The righteous knoweth the cause of the poore: but the wicked regardeth not knowledge.
Pravednik razumije parbu nevoljnijeh, a bezbožnik ne mari da zna.
8 Scornefull men bring a citie into a snare: but wise men turne away wrath.
Potsmjevaèi raspaljuju grad, a mudri utišavaju gnjev.
9 If a wise man contend with a foolish man, whether he be angry or laugh, there is no rest.
Mudar èovjek kad se pre s ludijem, ili se srdio ili smijao, nema mira.
10 Bloodie men hate him that is vpright: but the iust haue care of his soule.
Krvopije mrze na bezazlenoga, a pravi se brinu za dušu njegovu.
11 A foole powreth out all his minde: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterward.
Sav gnjev svoj izliva bezumnik, a mudri ustavlja ga natrag.
12 Of a prince that hearkeneth to lyes, all his seruants are wicked.
Koji knez sluša lažne rijeèi, sve su mu sluge bezbožne.
13 The poore and the vsurer meete together, and the Lord lighteneth both their eyes.
Siromah i koji daje na dobit sretaju se; obojici Gospod prosvjetljuje oèi.
14 A King that iudgeth the poore in trueth, his throne shalbe established for euer.
Koji car pravo sudi siromasima, njegov æe prijesto stajati dovijeka.
15 The rodde and correction giue wisdome: but a childe set a libertie, maketh his mother ashamed.
Prut i kar daju mudrost, a dijete pusto sramoti mater svoju.
16 When the wicked are increased, transgression increaseth: but ye righteous shall see their fall.
Kad se umnožavaju bezbožnici, umnožavaju se grijesi, a pravednici æe vidjeti propast njihovu.
17 Correct thy sonne and he will giue thee rest, and will giue pleasures to thy soule.
Karaj sina svojega, i smiriæe te, i uèiniæe milinu duši tvojoj.
18 Where there is no vision, the people decay: but he that keepeth the Lawe, is blessed.
Kad nema utvare, rasipa se narod; a ko drži zakon, blago njemu!
19 A seruant will not be chastised with words: though he vnderstand, yet he will not answere.
Rijeèima se ne popravlja sluga, jer ako i razumije, opet ne sluša.
20 Seest thou a man hastie in his matters? there is more hope of a foole, then of him.
Jesi li vidio èovjeka nagla u besjedi svojoj? više ima nadanja od bezumna nego od njega.
21 He that delicately bringeth vp his seruant from youth, at length he will be euen as his sone.
Ako ko mazi slugu od malena, on æe najposlije biti sin.
22 An angrie man stirreth vp strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
Gnjevljiv èovjek zameæe svaðu, i ko je naprasit, mnogo griješi.
23 The pride of a man shall bring him lowe: but the humble in spirit shall enioy glory.
Oholost ponižuje èovjeka, a ko je smjeran duhom, dobija slavu.
24 He that is partner with a thiefe, hateth his owne soule: he heareth cursing, and declareth it not.
Ko dijeli s lupežem, mrzi na svoju dušu, èuje prokletstvo i ne prokazuje.
25 The feare of man bringeth a snare: but he that trusteth in the Lord, shalbe exalted.
Strašiv èovjek meæe sebi zamku; a ko se u Gospoda uzda, biæe u visokom zaklonu.
26 Many doe seeke the face of the ruler: but euery mans iudgement commeth from the Lord.
Mnogi traže lice vladaoèevo, ali je od Gospoda sud svakome.
27 A wicked man is abomination to the iust, and he that is vpright in his way, is abomination to the wicked.
Pravednima je mrzak nepravednik, a bezbožniku je mrzak ko pravo hodi.
