Proverbs 14
1 Every wise woman builds her house, but the foolish one tears it down with her own hands.
Ti masirib a babai ur-urnosenna ti balayna, ngem ti maag a babai ket daddadaelenna daytoy babaen kadagiti mismo wagasna.
2 He who walks in his uprightness fears the LORD, but he who is perverse in his ways despises him.
Ti agbibiag a nalinteg ket addaan iti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh, ngem ti saan a napudno iti wagasna ket um-umsienna ni Yahweh.
3 The fool's talk brings a rod to his back, but the lips of the wise protect them.
Manipud iti ngiwat ti maag tumaud ti kinatangsitna, ngem dagiti bibig dagiti masirib ti mangsalaknib kadakuada.
4 Where no oxen are, the crib is clean, but much increase is by the strength of the ox.
No awan ti baka, nadalus ti kulloong, ngem mabalin a maadda ti nawadwad nga apit babaen iti pigsa ti baka.
5 A truthful witness will not lie, but a false witness pours out lies.
Ti napudno a saksi saan nga agul-ulbod, ngem ti palso a saksi agisawsawng iti inuulbod.
6 A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn't find it, but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.
Ti tao a mangipagpagarup a nalalaing isuna ngem iti dadduma ket kasla mangbirbiruk iti kinasirib ket awan mabirukanna, ngem nalaka nga umay ti pannakaammo iti tao a masirib.
7 Stay away from a foolish man, for you won't find knowledge on his lips.
Adaywam ti maag a tao, ta awan ti maadalmo kenkuana.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to think about his way, but the folly of fools is deceit.
Ti kinasirib ti nanakem a tao ket ti panangawatna iti bukodna a biag, ngem ti kinamaag dagiti maag ket panangallilaw.
9 Fools mock at making atonement for sins, but among the upright there is good will.
Manglalais dagiti maag no maidaton ti daton a para iti basol, ngem pagbibingayan dagiti nalinteg ti pabor.
10 The heart knows its own bitterness and joy; he will not share these with a stranger.
Ammo ti puso ti bukodna a kinasaem, ket awan ganggannaet a makabingay iti rag-ona.
11 The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish.
Madadael ti balay dagiti nadangkes a tattao, ngem rumangpaya ti tolda dagiti nalinteg a tattao.
12 There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.
Adda dalan a kasla nalinteg iti panagkita ti maysa a tao, ngem ti pagtungpalanna ket iti laeng patay.
13 Even in laughter the heart may be sorrowful, and mirth may end in heaviness.
Mabalin nga agkatawa ti maysa a puso ngem makarikna latta ti ut-ot, ken mabalin a ti rag-o ket agtungpal laeng iti panagladingit.
14 The unfaithful will be repaid for his own ways; likewise a good man will be rewarded for his ways.
Gun-odento ti tao a saan a napudno ti maiparbeng iti wagasna, ngem gun-odento ti nasayaat a tao ti rumbeng kenkuana.
15 A simple man believes everything, but the prudent man carefully considers his ways.
Ti tao a saan a nasursuroan ket mamati iti amin a banbanag, ngem ti nanakem a tao ket ad-adalenna dagiti addangna.
16 A wise man is cautious and turns away from evil, but the fool is arrogant and reckless.
Ti masirib a tao ket addaan iti panagbuteng ken ad-adaywanna ti dakes, ngem sitatalek ti maag a mangikkat iti ballaag.
17 He who is quick to become angry will commit folly, and a crafty man is hated.
Ti tao a nalaka nga agunget ket agar-aramid kadagiti minamaag a banbanag, ken ti tao nga agar-aramid kadagiti dakes a panggep ket magurgura.
18 The simple inherit folly, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
Tawiden dagiti saan a nasursuroan a tattao ti kinanengneng ngem napalikmutan iti pannakaammo dagiti nanakem a tattao.
19 The evil bow down before the good, and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
Dagiti dakes ket agruknoyto iti sangoanan dagiti naimbag, ken dagiti nadangkes agruknoyto kadagiti ruangan dagiti nalinteg.
20 The poor person is shunned even by his own neighbor, but the rich person has many friends.
Ti tao a napanglaw ket magurgura uray pay kadagiti kakaduana, ngem ti tao a nabaknang ket adu ti gagayyemna.
21 He who despises his neighbor sins, but blessed is he who shows kindness to the poor.
Agbasbasol ti tao a mangipakpakita iti gurana iti kaarrubana, ngem naragsak ti tao a mangipakpakita iti nasayaat kadagiti napanglaw.
22 Do they not go astray who plot evil? But love and faithfulness belong to those who plan good.
Saan aya a dagiti agpangpanggep iti kinadakes ket maiyaw-awan? Ngem dagiti agpangpanggep iti nasayaat ket umawat iti kinapudno iti tulag ken kinamatalek.
23 In all hard work there is profit, but the talk of the lips leads only to poverty.
Tumaud ti gunggona manipud kadagiti amin a nagbannogan, ngem no ti adda laeng ket sao, mangiturong daytoy iti kinapanglaw.
24 The crown of the wise is their riches, but the folly of fools crowns them with folly.
Ti balangat dagiti masirib a tattao ket ti kinabaknangda, ngem ti kinamaag dagiti maag ket mangmangiyeg kadakuada iti ad-adda pay a kinamaag.
25 A truthful witness saves souls, but a false witness is deceitful.
Ti napudno a saksi ket is-ispalenna ti biag, ngem ti palso a saksi ket agisawsawang iti inuulbod.
26 In the fear of the LORD is a secure fortress, and he will be a refuge for his children.
No ti maysa a tao ket agbuteng kenni Yahweh, addaan met isuna iti panagtalek kenni Yahweh; dagitoy a banbanag ket kaslanto natibker a lugar a salaknib para kadagiti annak dagiti tattao.
27 The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, turning people from the snares of death.
Ti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh ket maiyarig a burayok ti biag, tapno maadaywan ti tao dagiti silo ti patay.
28 In the multitude of people is the king's glory, but in the lack of people is the destruction of the prince.
Ti dayag ti ari ket masarakan kadagiti adu a tattaona, ngem no awan ti tattao ket madadael ti prinsipe.
29 He who is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a quick temper displays folly.
Ti tao a naanus ket addaan dakkel a pannakaawat, ngem ti tao a nalaka nga agpungtot ket mangitantan-ok iti kinamaag.
30 The life of the body is a heart at peace, but envy rots the bones.
Ti nasayaat a panagpanpanunot ket biag ti bagi, ngem runrunoten ti apal dagiti tultulang.
31 He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for his Maker, but he who is kind to the needy honors him.
Ti mangidaddadanes kadagiti napanglaw ket ilunlunodna ti Nangparsua kenkuana, ngem ti mangipakpakita iti nasayaat kadagiti agkasapulan ket mangpadpadayaw kenni Yahweh.
32 The wicked is brought down in his calamity, but the righteous has a refuge in his death.
Ti nadangkes a tao ket ipabpababa dagiti dakes nga aramidna, ngem ti nalinteg a tao ket addaan iti pagkamangan uray iti patay.
33 Wisdom rests in the heart of one who has understanding, and is even made known in the inward part of fools.
Agtaltalinaed ti sirib iti puso ti addaan pannakaawat, ngem uray kadagiti maag ket ipakpakaammona ti bagina.
34 Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.
Ti panagaramid iti umno ti mangitantan-ok iti nasion, ngem ti basol ket pakaibabainan ti siasinoman a tao.
35 The king's favor is toward a servant who deals wisely, but his wrath is toward one who causes shame.
Ti pabor ti ari ket adda iti adipen a nanakem, ngem ti ungetna ket maipaay iti agar-aramid iti pakaibabainan.
