Proverbs 15
1 A soft answer turneth away wrath; but a grievous word stirreth up anger.
| اَلْجَوَابُ ٱللَّيِّنُ يَصْرِفُ ٱلْغَضَبَ، وَٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلْمُوجِعُ يُهَيِّجُ ٱلسَّخَطَ. | ١ |
2 The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright; but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.
| لِسَانُ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ يُحَسِّنُ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةَ، وَفَمُ ٱلْجُهَّالِ يُنْبِعُ حَمَاقَةً. | ٢ |
3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, keeping watch upon the evil and the good.
| فِي كُلِّ مَكَانٍ عَيْنَا ٱلرَّبِّ مُرَاقِبَتَانِ ٱلطَّالِحِينَ وَٱلصَّالِحِينَ. | ٣ |
4 A soothing tongue is a tree of life; but perverseness therein is a wound to the spirit.
| هُدُوءُ ٱللِّسَانِ شَجَرَةُ حَيَاةٍ، وَٱعْوِجَاجُهُ سَحْقٌ فِي ٱلرُّوحِ. | ٤ |
5 A fool despiseth his father's correction; but he that regardeth reproof is prudent.
| اَلْأَحْمَقُ يَسْتَهِينُ بِتَأْدِيبِ أَبِيهِ، أَمَّا مُرَاعِي ٱلتَّوْبِيخِ فَيَذْكَى. | ٥ |
6 In the house of the righteous is much treasure; but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.
| فِي بَيْتِ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ كَنْزٌ عَظِيمٌ، وَفِي دَخْلِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ كَدَرٌ. | ٦ |
7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge; but the heart of the foolish is not stedfast.
| شِفَاهُ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ تَذُرُّ مَعْرِفَةً، أَمَّا قَلْبُ ٱلْجُهَّالِ فَلَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ. | ٧ |
8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD; but the prayer of the upright is His delight.
| ذَبِيحَةُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ مَكْرَهَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَصَلَاةُ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ مَرْضَاتُهُ. | ٨ |
9 The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD; but He loveth him that followeth after righteousness.
| مَكْرَهَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ طَرِيقُ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، وَتَابِعُ ٱلْبِرِّ يُحِبُّهُ. | ٩ |
10 There is grievous correction for him that forsaketh the way; and he that hateth reproof shall die.
| تَأْدِيبُ شَرٍّ لِتَارِكِ ٱلطَّرِيقِ. مُبْغِضُ ٱلتَّوْبِيخِ يَمُوتُ. | ١٠ |
11 The nether-world and Destruction are before the LORD; how much more then the hearts of the children of men! (Sheol h7585)
| اَلْهَاوِيَةُ وَٱلْهَلَاكُ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ. كَمْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ قُلُوبُ بَنِي آدَمَ! (Sheol h7585) | ١١ |
12 A scorner loveth not to be reproved; he will not go unto the wise.
| اَلْمُسْتَهْزِئُ لَا يُحِبُّ مُوَبِّخَهُ. إِلَى ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ لَا يَذْهَبُ. | ١٢ |
13 A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance; but by sorrow of heart the spirit is broken.
| اَلْقَلْبُ ٱلْفَرْحَانُ يَجْعَلُ ٱلْوَجْهَ طَلِقًا، وَبِحُزْنِ ٱلْقَلْبِ تَنْسَحِقُ ٱلرُّوحُ. | ١٣ |
14 The heart of him that hath discernment seeketh knowledge; but the mouth of fools feedeth on folly.
| قَلْبُ ٱلْفَهِيمِ يَطْلُبُ مَعْرِفَةً، وَفَمُ ٱلْجُهَّالِ يَرْعَى حَمَاقَةً. | ١٤ |
15 All the days of the poor are evil; but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.
| كُلُّ أَيَّامِ ٱلْحَزِينِ شَقِيَّةٌ، أَمَّا طَيِّبُ ٱلْقَلْبِ فَوَلِيمَةٌ دَائِمَةٌ. | ١٥ |
16 Better is little with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure and turmoil therewith.
| اَلْقَلِيلُ مَعَ مَخَافَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، خَيْرٌ مِنْ كَنْزٍ عَظِيمٍ مَعَ هَمٍّ. | ١٦ |
17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
| أَكْلَةٌ مِنَ ٱلْبُقُولِ حَيْثُ تَكُونُ ٱلْمَحَبَّةُ، خَيْرٌ مِنْ ثَوْرٍ مَعْلُوفٍ وَمَعَهُ بُغْضَةٌ. | ١٧ |
18 A wrathful man stirreth up discord; but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
| اَلرَّجُلُ ٱلْغَضُوبُ يُهَيِّجُ ٱلْخُصُومَةَ، وَبَطِيءُ ٱلْغَضَبِ يُسَكِّنُ ٱلْخِصَامَ. | ١٨ |
19 The way of the sluggard is as though hedged by thorns; but the path of the upright is even.
| طَرِيقُ ٱلْكَسْلَانِ كَسِيَاجٍ مِنْ شَوْكٍ، وَطَرِيقُ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمِينَ مَنْهَجٌ. | ١٩ |
20 A wise son maketh a glad father; but a foolish man despiseth his mother.
| اَلِٱبْنُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ يَسُرُّ أَبَاهُ، وَٱلرَّجُلُ ٱلْجَاهِلُ يَحْتَقِرُ أُمَّهُ. | ٢٠ |
21 Folly is joy to him that lacketh understanding; but a man of discernment walketh straightforwards.
| ٱلْحَمَاقَةُ فَرَحٌ لِنَاقِصِ ٱلْفَهْمِ، أَمَّا ذُو ٱلْفَهْمِ فَيُقَوِّمُ سُلُوكَهُ. | ٢١ |
22 For want of counsel purposes are frustrated; but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
| مَقَاصِدُ بِغَيْرِ مَشُورَةٍ تَبْطُلُ، وَبِكَثْرَةِ ٱلْمُشِيرِينَ تَقُومُ. | ٢٢ |
23 A man hath joy in the answer of his mouth; and a word in due season, how good is it!
| لِلْإِنْسَانِ فَرَحٌ بِجَوَابِ فَمِهِ، وَٱلْكَلِمَةُ فِي وَقْتِهَا مَا أَحْسَنَهَا! | ٢٣ |
24 The path of life goeth upward for the wise, that he may depart from the nether-world beneath. (Sheol h7585)
| طَرِيقُ ٱلْحَيَاةِ لِلْفَطِنِ إِلَى فَوْقُ، لِلْحَيَدَانِ عَنِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ مِنْ تَحْتُ. (Sheol h7585) | ٢٤ |
25 The LORD will pluck up the house of the proud; but He will establish the border of the widow.
| اَلرَّبُّ يَقْلَعُ بَيْتَ ٱلْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ، وَيُوَطِّدُ تُخْمَ ٱلْأَرْمَلَةِ. | ٢٥ |
26 The thoughts of wickedness are an abomination to the LORD; but words of pleasantness are pure.
| مَكْرَهَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ أَفْكَارُ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ، وَلِلْأَطْهَارِ كَلَامٌ حَسَنٌ. | ٢٦ |
27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
| اَلْمُولَعُ بِٱلْكَسْبِ يُكَدِّرُ بَيْتَهُ، وَٱلْكَارِهُ ٱلْهَدَايَا يَعِيشُ. | ٢٧ |
28 The heart of the righteous studieth to answer; but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
| قَلْبُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ يَتَفَكَّرُ بِٱلْجَوَابِ، وَفَمُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يُنْبِعُ شُرُورًا. | ٢٨ |
29 The LORD is far from the wicked; but He heareth the prayer of the righteous.
| اَلرَّبُّ بَعِيدٌ عَنِ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ، وَيَسْمَعُ صَلَاةَ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ. | ٢٩ |
30 The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart; and a good report maketh the bones fat.
| نُورُ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ يُفَرِّحُ ٱلْقَلْبَ. اَلْخَبَرُ ٱلطَّيِّبُ يُسَمِّنُ ٱلْعِظَامَ. | ٣٠ |
31 The ear that hearkeneth to the reproof of life abideth among the wise.
| اَلْأُذُنُ ٱلسَّامِعَةُ تَوْبِيخَ ٱلْحَيَاةِ تَسْتَقِرُّ بَيْنَ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ. | ٣١ |
32 He that refuseth correction despiseth his own soul; but he that hearkeneth to reproof getteth understanding.
| مَنْ يَرْفُضُ ٱلتَّأْدِيبَ يُرْذِلُ نَفْسَهُ، وَمَنْ يَسْمَعُ لِلتَّوْبِيخِ يَقْتَنِي فَهْمًا. | ٣٢ |
33 The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour goeth humility.
| مَخَافَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ أَدَبُ حِكْمَةٍ، وَقَبْلَ ٱلْكَرَامَةِ ٱلتَّوَاضُعُ. | ٣٣ |
