Proverbs 29
1 He, that being often reproved hardens his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
Thlang ing a toelzyih coeng awhawm kaw ak ting thlang taw amak voei thai voelna plam kaw.
2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked bears rule, the people mourn.
Thlakdyng a awm awh pilnam ak kawzeel nawh, thlakche ing a uk awh pilnam kaw vung hy.
3 Whoever loves wisdom rejoices his father: but he that keeps company with harlots spends his substance.
Cyinaak ak lungnaak ing a pak kaw zeel sak nawh, a pum ak zawi nu ak ih pyi taw a khawh plam kaw.
4 The king by judgment establishes the land: but he that receives gifts overthrows it.
Ak thymna ak uk sangpahrang ing khawqam cak sak nawh, cehlai ang hyp kutdo ak lungnaak ing khawqam seet sak kaw.
5 A man that flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.
A imceng ak kyihcah phawk taw a khaw ham thang ak duun ni.
6 In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous does sing and rejoice.
Thlakche taw amah thawlhnaak awh aawk nawh, thlakdyng taw awmhly nawh laa sa hy.
7 The righteous considers the cause of the poor: but the wicked regards not to know it.
Thlakdyng ingtaw khawdengkhqi hamna lam ak leek poek pek khqi nawh, thlakche ingtaw ak poeknaak ham kawlung am pe hy.
8 Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.
Thlang ak thekhanaak ing khawkkhui awi pung sak nawh, thlakdyng ingtaw kawsonaak qeem sak hy.
9 If a wise man contends with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no rest.
Thlakcyi ing thlakqaw a oelh awhtaw qoepquinaak am awm thai hy.
10 The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his soul.
Thi lawng sak ak lungnakkhqi ing thlakleek hudam unawh, thlakdyng ingtaw a hqingnaak hul ham cai hy.
11 A fool utters all his mind: but a wise man keeps it in till afterwards.
Thlakqaw ing ak kawsonaak kqawn boeih nawh thlakcyi ingtaw thuh phah nawh ngawih pyi hy.
12 If a ruler listen to lies, all his servants are wicked.
Ukkung ing qai kqawn awi ang ngaih awhtaw a tamnaakhqi boeih thlakche na awm uhy.
13 The poor and the deceitful man meet together: the LORD lightens both their eyes.
Khawdeng thlang ingkaw thlang ak hep qawi kutoetna khaw sa haih nih nawh, Bawipa ing a ni mik daih sak qawi haih hy.
14 The king that faithfully judges the poor, his throne shall be established for ever.
Khawdeng cakhqi ypawm cana ak ukkung sangpahrang taw a boei ngaihnaak ce kumqui cak sakna awm poepa kaw.
15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself brings his mother to shame.
Cumcik ingkaw toelzyihnaak ing nasen cyi sak nawh, hlahphlam awhtaw a nu chah pyih sak kaw.
16 When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases: but the righteous shall see their fall.
Thlache a pung awh thawlhnaak pung nawh, cekkhqi a ming tluk thlakdyngkhqi ing hu kawm uh.
17 Correct your son, and he shall give you rest; yes, he shall give delight to your soul.
Na capa ce ak leekna toel nawh, dymnaak ni pe kawm saw kawpoek nawmnaak ni pe kaw.
18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he.
Hailam khaw huh thainaak ama awm awh pilnam hlahphlam nawh, cehlai aanaa awi ak ngai thlang taw a zoseen kaw.
19 A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer.
Tamnaa taw awi mai ing tlaihvawng thai am ni; zasim seiawm am sai kaw.
20 See you a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him.
Awi ak kqawn pyn pyn ak awm aw? A nih anglakawh thlakqaw awh ngaih-uunaak awm bet hy.
21 He that delicately brings up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.
A nasen awhkawng awm pyi tamnaa ing ca a qo qup pyi kaw.
22 An angry man stirs up strife, and a furious man abounds in transgression.
Thlak kawktawi ing khqah qu coeng sak nawh, thlak kawsonaak ing thawlhnaak sai hy.
23 A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honor shall uphold the humble in spirit.
Ak oek qu thlang ak kaina awm nawh, kaw ak daw ing kyihcahnaak hu hy.
24 Whoever is partner with a thief hates his own soul: he hears cursing, and denudes it not.
Thlakqu ak pyinaak taw amah a hqingnaak ak sawhnaak ni; qun khy awi za moe seinu ak kqawn hly kqih hy.
25 The fear of man brings a snare: but whoever puts his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
Thlang kqih nawh awi ak ngai hqoeh hqoeh taw a ham thang ak duun ing myih nawh, Bawipa ak ypnaak thlang taw a sa syng kaw.
26 Many seek the ruler’s favor; but every man’s judgment comes from the LORD.
Thlang khawzah ing ukkung haiawh mikhai-leek huh ham sui uhy, cehlai Bawipa ven na kawng ni thlang ing mikhaileek a huh hly thai.
27 An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.
Thlakdyng ing amak thym them ce tuih nawh, thlakche ing thlakdyng ce tuih lawt hy.
