< Proverbs 29 >
1 A man often reproved, hardening the neck, Is suddenly broken, and there is no healing.
Munhu anoramba akaomesa mutsipa wake mushure mokutsiurwa kazhinji achaparadzwa nokukurumidza, kusina chingamubatsira.
2 In the multiplying of the righteous the people rejoice, And in the ruling of the wicked the people sigh.
Kana vakarurama vachiwanda, vanhu vanofara; asi kana vakaipa vachitonga, vanhu vanogomera.
3 A man loving wisdom makes his father glad, And a friend of harlots destroys wealth.
Munhu anoda uchenjeri anouyisa mufaro kuna baba vake, asi anoshamwaridzana nechifeve anoparadza pfuma yake.
4 A king establishes a land by judgment, And one receiving gifts throws it down.
Nokururamisira mambo anosimbisa nyika, asi uyo anokara fufuro anoiparadza.
5 A man taking a portion above his neighbor, Spreads a net for his own steps.
Ani naani anonyengera muvakidzani wake anodzikira tsoka dzake mumbure.
6 A snare [is] in the transgression of the evil, And the righteous sing and rejoice.
Munhu akaipa anoteyiwa nezvivi zvake, asi munhu akarurama anogona kuimba uye agofara.
7 The righteous knows the plea of the poor, The wicked does not understand knowledge.
Vakarurama vane hanya nokururamisirwa kwavarombo, asi vakaipa havana hanya naizvozvo.
8 Men of scorning ensnare a city, And the wise turn back anger.
Vatuki vanomutsa bope muguta, asi vanhu vakachenjera vanodzora kutsamwa.
9 A wise man is judged by the foolish man, And he has been angry, And he has laughed, and there is no rest.
Kana munhu akachenjera akaenda kumatare nebenzi, benzi rinotsamwa uye rigotuka, zvokuti hapangavi norugare.
10 Men of blood hate the perfect, And the upright seek his soul.
Vanhu vanofarira kudeura ropa vanovenga munhu akarurama, uye vanotsvaka kuuraya vakarurama.
11 A fool brings out all his mind, And the wise restrains it until afterward.
Benzi rinobudisa hasha dzaro dzose, asi munhu akachenjera anozvibata.
12 A ruler who is attending to lying words, All his ministers [are] wicked.
Kana mutongi akateerera nhema machinda ake ose achava akaipa.
13 The poor and the man of frauds have met together, YHWH is enlightening the eyes of them both.
Murombo nomunhu anomanikidza vakafanana pachinhu ichi: Jehovha ndiye anoita kuti meso avo vose aone.
14 A king that is judging the poor with truth, His throne is established forever.
Kana mambo akatonga varombo nokururamisira, chigaro chake choushe chinogara chakachengetedzeka nguva dzose.
15 A rod and reproof give wisdom, And a youth let away is shaming his mother.
Shamhu yokuranga inopa uchenjeri, asi mwana anosiyiwa akadaro achanyadzisa mai vake.
16 In the multiplying of the wicked transgression multiplies, And the righteous look on their fall.
Kana vakaipa vachiwanda, nezvivi zvinowandawo, asi vakarurama vachaona kuwa kwavo.
17 Discipline your son, and he gives you comfort, Indeed, he gives delights to your soul.
Ranga mwanakomana wako, ipapo achakupa rugare; achauyisa mufaro kumweya wako.
18 A people is made naked without a vision, And whoever is keeping the Law, O his blessedness!
Pasina chizaruro, vanhu vanoramba kuzvidzora; asi akaropafadzwa uyo anochengeta murayiro.
19 By words a servant is not instructed though he understand, And there is nothing answering.
Muranda haarayirwi namashoko zvawo chete, nokuti kunyange achinzwisisa, haangadaviri.
20 You have seen a man hasty in his words! More hope of a fool than of him.
Unoona here munhu anotaura achikurumidza? Benzi rine tariro zhinji kupfuura iye.
21 Whoever is bringing up his servant delicately, from youth, [At] his latter end he is also continuator.
Kana munhu akaregerera muranda wake kubva paudiki, achazotarisira kodzero dzomwanakomana pakupedzisira.
22 An angry man stirs up contention, And a furious man is multiplying transgression.
Munhu akashatirwa anomutsa kupesana, uye munhu ane hasha anoita zvivi zvizhinji.
23 The pride of man humbles him, And humility of spirit upholds honor.
Kuzvikudza kwomunhu kunomudzikisira pasi, asi munhu ane mweya wokuzvininipisa achawana kukudzwa.
24 Whoever is sharing with a thief is hating his own soul, He hears execration, and does not tell.
Anoshamwaridzana nembavha anozvivenga iye pachake; anoiswa pasi pemhiko, asi haangakwanisi kupa uchapupu.
25 Fear of man causes a snare, And the confident in YHWH is set on high.
Kutya munhu kuchava musungo, asi ani naani anovimba naJehovha achagara akachengetedzeka.
26 Many are seeking the face of a ruler, And the judgment of each [is] from YHWH.
Vazhinji vanotsvaka nyasha kumutongi, asi kururamisirwa kwomunhu kunobva kuna Jehovha.
27 The perverse man [is] an abomination to the righteous, And the upright in the way [is] an abomination to the wicked!
Vakarurama vanovenga vasina kutendeka; vakaipa vanovenga vakarurama.
