< Proverbs 9 >

1 Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars;
Dieva gudrība ir uztaisījusi savu namu, viņa uzcirtusi savus septiņus pīlārus;
2 She hath prepared her meat, she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
Viņa nokāvusi savus kaujamos, jaukusi savu vīnu, ir jau klājusi savu galdu;
3 She hath sent forth her maidens, she calleth, upon the highest places of the city:
Viņa izsūtījusi savas kalpones; viņa sauc no pilsētas augstākām vietām:
4 'Whoso is thoughtless, let him turn in hither'; as for him that lacketh understanding, she saith to him:
„Kas nejēga, lai griežas šurp!“kas neprātīgs, uz to viņa saka:
5 'Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
„Nāciet, ēdiet no manas maizes, un dzeriet no vīna, ko esmu jaukusi.
6 Forsake all thoughtlessness, and live; and walk in the way of understanding.
Atstājiet nejēdzību, tad dzīvosiet, un staigājiet pa atzīšanas ceļu!“
7 He that correcteth a scorner getteth to himself shame, and he that reproveth a wicked man, it becometh unto him a blot.
Kas smējēju pamāca, tas dabūs kaunu, un kas bezdievīgo pārmāca, apsmieklu.
8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee; reprove a wise man, and he will love thee.
Nepamāci smējēju, ka viņš tevi neienīst; pamāci prātīgo, tas tevi mīlēs.
9 Give to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
Dod prātīgam, tad viņš tiks jo prātīgs, māci taisnu, tad viņš pieaugs mācībā.
10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the All-holy is understanding.
Tā Kunga bijāšana ir gudrības iesākums, un izprast, kas svēts, tā ir atzīšana.
11 For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
Jo caur mani taps daudz tavu dienu un vairosies tev dzīvības gadi.
12 If thou art wise, thou art wise for thyself; and if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.'
Ja tu gudrs, tad tu sev gudrs; ja tu smējējs, tad tu viens pats to nesīsi.
13 The woman Folly is riotous; she is thoughtless, and knoweth nothing.
Nejēdzība ir sieva tītīga, ģeķīga, kas neatjēdz nenieka
14 And she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
Tā sēž sava nama durvīs uz goda krēsla pilsētas augstās vietās,
15 To call to them that pass by, who go right on their ways:
Aicināt tos, kas iet garām pa ceļu, kas staigā savās taisnās tekās.
16 'Whoso is thoughtless, let him turn in hither'; and as for him that lacketh understanding, she saith to him:
Kas nejēga, lai griežas šurp! Un kas neprātīgs, uz to viņa saka:
17 'Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.'
„Zagts ūdens ir salds, un slēpta maize garda!“
18 But he knoweth not that the shades are there; that her guests are in the depths of the nether-world. (Sheol h7585)
Bet tas nemana, ka tur miroņi, un elles dziļumos viņas viesi! (Sheol h7585)
