Proverbs 10
1 Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son causes a father to rejoice, And a foolish son [is] an affliction to his mother.
Zvirevo zvaSoromoni: Mwanakomana akachenjera anofadza baba vake, asi mwanakomana benzi anosuwisa mai vake.
2 Treasures of wickedness do not profit, And righteousness delivers from death.
Pfuma yakawanikwa zvakaipa haibatsiri chinhu, asi kururama kunorwira parufu.
3 YHWH does not cause the soul of the righteous to hunger, And He thrusts away the desire of the wicked.
Jehovha haatenderi akarurama kuti anzwe nzara, asi kupanga kwowakaipa anokusundira kure.
4 Poor [is] he who is working [with] a slothful hand, And the hand of the diligent makes rich.
Maoko ane usimbe anoita kuti munhu ave murombo, asi maoko anoshingaira anopfumisa.
5 Whoever is gathering in summer [is] a wise son, Whoever is sleeping in harvest [is] a son causing shame.
Anounganidza zvirimwa muzhizha, mwanakomana akachenjera, asi anorara munguva yokukohwa, mwanakomana anonyadzisa.
6 Blessings [are] for the head of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked covers violence.
Maropafadzo ndiwo korona yomusoro woakarurama, asi kuita nechisimba kuzere mumuromo womunhu akaipa.
7 The remembrance of the righteous [is] for a blessing, And the name of the wicked rots.
Kuyeukwa kwowakarurama kuchava chikomborero, asi zita rowakaipa richaora.
8 The wise in heart accepts commands, And a talkative fool kicks.
Akachenjera pamwoyo anogamuchira mirayiro, asi benzi rinotaura zvisina maturo richaparara.
9 Whoever is walking in integrity walks confidently, And whoever is perverting his ways is known.
Munhu akarurama anofamba akachengetedzeka, asi uyo anofamba nenzira dzakaminama achabatwa.
10 Whoever is winking the eye gives grief, And a talkative fool kicks.
Uyo anochonya neziso roruvengo anouyisa kusuwa, asi benzi rinotaura zvisina maturo richaparara.
11 A fountain of life [is] the mouth of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked covers violence.
Muromo womunhu akarurama chitubu choupenyu, asi kuita nechisimba kuzere mumuromo womunhu akaipa.
12 Hatred awakens contentions, And love covers over all transgressions.
Ruvengo runomutsa kupesana, asi rudo runofukidzira zvakaipa zvose.
13 Wisdom is found in the lips of the intelligent, And a rod [is] for the back of him who is lacking understanding.
Uchenjeri hunowanikwa pamiromo yavane njere, asi shamhu yakafanira musana wouyo asina njere.
14 The wise lay up knowledge, and the mouth of a fool [is] near ruin.
Vanhu vakachenjera vanochengeta zivo, asi muromo webenzi unotsvaka kuparara.
15 The wealth of the rich [is] his strong city, The ruin of the poor [is] their poverty.
Upfumi hwavakapfuma ndiro guta ravo rina masvingo, asi urombo ndiko kuparadzwa kwavarombo.
16 The wage of the righteous [is] for life, The increase of the wicked for sin.
Mubayiro wavakarurama ndihwo upenyu, asi zvinowanikwa nowakaipa ndiko kurangwa.
17 A traveler to life [is] he who is keeping instruction, And whoever is forsaking rebuke is erring.
Uyo anoteerera kurayira anoratidza nzira youpenyu, asi ani naani anozvidza kudzorwa anotsausa vamwe.
18 Whoever is covering hatred with lying lips, And whoever is bringing out an evil report is a fool.
Uyo anovanza ruvengo rwake ane miromo inoreva nhema, uye ani naani anoparadzira guhwa ibenzi.
19 In the abundance of words transgression does not cease, And whoever is restraining his lips [is] wise.
Kana mashoko ari mazhinji, chivi hachingashayikwi, asi uyo anodzora rurimi rwake akachenjera.
20 The tongue of the righteous [is] chosen silver, The heart of the wicked—as a little thing.
Rurimi rwakarurama isirivha yakaisvonaka, asi mwoyo wowakaipa haubatsiri chinhu.
21 The lips of the righteous delight many, And fools die for lack of heart.
Miromo yemunhu akarurama inosimbisa vazhinji, asi mapenzi anofa nokuda kwokushayiwa zivo.
22 The blessing of YHWH—it makes rich, And He adds no grief with it.
Kuropafadza kwaJehovha kunowanisa upfumi, uye haawedzeri matambudziko kwahuri.
23 To execute inventions [is] as play to a fool, And wisdom to a man of understanding.
Benzi rinofadzwa nokuita zvakaipa, asi munhu anonzwisisa anofarira uchenjeri.
24 The feared thing of the wicked meets him, And the desire of the righteous is given.
Zvinotyiwa nowakaipa ndizvo zvichaitika kwaari; zvinoshuviwa nowakarurama zvichapiwa kwaari.
25 As the passing by of a windstorm, So the wicked is not, And the righteous is a perpetual foundation.
Kana dutu rapfuura napo, vakaipa havazowanikwi, asi vakarurama vachamira vakasimba nokusingaperi.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, And as smoke to the eyes, So [is] the slothful to those sending him.
Sevhiniga kumazino noutsi kumaziso, ndizvo zvakaita simbe kuna avo vachamutuma.
27 The fear of YHWH adds days, And the years of the wicked are shortened.
Kutya Jehovha kunowedzera mazuva kuupenyu, asi makore owakaipa achatapudzwa.
28 The hope of the righteous [is] joyful, And the expectation of the wicked perishes.
Tarisiro yowakarurama mufaro, asi tariro dzowakaipa dzichaparadzwa.
29 The way of YHWH [is] strength to the perfect, And ruin to workers of iniquity.
Nzira yaJehovha ndiyo utiziro hwavakarurama, asi ndiko kuparadzwa kwaavo vanoita zvakaipa.
30 The righteous is not moved for all time, And the wicked do not inhabit the earth.
Akarurama haangatongodzurwi, asi vakaipa havangarambi vari munyika.
31 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, And the tongue of contrariness is cut out.
Muromo womunhu akarurama unobudisa uchenjeri, asi rurimi rwakaipa ruchabviswa.
32 The lips of the righteous know a pleasing thing, And the mouth of the wicked perverseness!
Miromo yomunhu akarurama inoziva zvakafanira, asi muromo womunhu akaipa, zvakaipa chete.
