Proverbs 10
1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father; but a foolish son brings grief to his mother.
Miyambo ya Solomoni: Mwana wanzeru amakondweretsa abambo ake, koma mwana wopusa amamvetsa amayi ake chisoni.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, but righteousness delivers from death.
Chuma chochipeza mwachinyengo sichipindulitsa, koma chilungamo chimapulumutsa ku imfa.
3 YHWH will not allow the soul of the righteous to go hungry, but he thrusts away the desire of the wicked.
Yehova salola kuti munthu wolungama azikhala ndi njala; koma amalepheretsa zokhumba za anthu oyipa.
4 He becomes poor who works with a lazy hand, but the hand of the diligent brings wealth.
Wochita zinthu mwaulesi amasauka, koma wogwira ntchito mwakhama amalemera.
5 He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during the harvest is a son who causes shame.
Amene amakolola nthawi yachilimwe ndi mwana wanzeru, koma amene amangogona nthawi yokolola ndi mwana wochititsa manyazi.
6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
Madalitso amakhala pa mutu wa munthu wolungama, koma pakamwa pa munthu woyipa pamaphimba chiwawa.
7 The memory of the righteous is blessed, but the name of the wicked will rot.
Munthu wolungama anzake adzamukumbukira ngati mdalitso, koma dzina la munthu woyipa lidzayiwalika.
8 The wise in heart accept commandments, but a chattering fool will fall.
Munthu wa mtima wanzeru amasamala malamulo, koma chitsiru chomangolongolola chidzawonongeka.
9 He who walks blamelessly walks surely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out.
Munthu woyenda mwangwiro amayenda mosatekeseka; koma amene amayenda njira yokhotakhota adzadziwika.
10 The one who winks with the eye causes trouble, but the one who boldly rebukes makes peace.
Aliyense wotsinzinira maso mwachinyengo amabweretsa mavuto, koma wodzudzula chitsiru molimba mtima amabweretsa mtendere.
11 The mouth of the righteous is a spring of life, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
Pakamwa pa munthu wolungama ndi kasupe wamoyo, koma pakamwa pa munthu woyipa pamabisa chiwawa.
12 Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all wrongs.
Udani umawutsa mikangano, koma chikondi chimaphimba zolakwa zonse.
13 Wisdom is found on the lips of him who has discernment, but a rod is for the back of him who is void of understanding.
Nzeru imapezeka pa milomo ya munthu wozindikira zinthu, koma pa msana pa munthu wopanda nzeru sipachoka chikwapu.
14 Wise men lay up knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near ruin.
Anzeru amasunga chidziwitso koma pakamwa pa chitsiru pamatulutsa zowononga.
15 The rich man's wealth is his strong city. The destruction of the poor is their poverty.
Chuma cha munthu wolemera ndiye chitetezo chake; koma umphawi ndiye chiwonongeko cha osauka.
16 The labor of the righteous leads to life. The increase of the wicked leads to sin.
Moyo ndiye malipiro a munthu wolungama, koma phindu la anthu oyipa ndi uchimo ndi imfa.
17 He is in the way of life who heeds correction, but he who forsakes reproof leads others astray.
Wosamalira malangizo amayenda mʼnjira ya moyo, koma wonyoza chidzudzulo amasochera.
18 He who hides hatred has lying lips. He who utters a slander is a fool.
Amene amabisa chidani chake ndi munthu wonama, ndipo amene amafalitsa miseche ndi chitsiru.
19 In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely.
Mawu akachuluka zolakwa sizisowa, koma amene amasunga pakamwa pake ndi wanzeru.
20 The tongue of the righteous is like choice silver. The heart of the wicked is of little worth.
Mawu a munthu wolungama ali ngati siliva wabwino kwambiri, koma mtima wa munthu woyipa ndi wopanda phindu.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many, but the foolish die for lack of understanding.
Milomo ya anthu olungama imalimbikitsa ambiri; koma chitsiru chimafa chifukwa chosowa nzeru.
22 YHWH's blessing brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it.
Mdalitso wa Yehova ndiwo umabweretsa chuma, ntchito za munthu siziwonjezerapo kanthu.
23 It is a fool's pleasure to do wickedness, but wisdom is a man of understanding's pleasure.
Kwa chitsiru kuchita zinthu zoyipa ndiye chinthu chomusangalatsa, koma kwa munthu womvetsa bwino zinthu nzeru ndiyo imamusangalatsa.
24 What the wicked fear, will overtake them, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
Chimene munthu woyipa amachiopa chidzamuchitikira; chimene munthu wolungama amachilakalaka adzachipeza.
25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more; but the righteous stand firm forever.
Pamene namondwe wawomba, anthu oyipa amachotsedwa, koma anthu olungama amakhazikika mpaka muyaya.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to those who send him.
Momwe amakhalira vinyo wosasa mʼkamwa ndi momwe umakhalira utsi mʼmaso, ndi momwenso amakhalira munthu waulesi kwa amene amutuma.
27 The fear of YHWH prolongs days, but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
Kuopa Yehova kumatalikitsa moyo; koma zaka za anthu oyipa zidzafupikitsidwa.
28 The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hope of the wicked will perish.
Chiyembekezo cha olungama chimapatsa chimwemwe, koma chiyembekezo cha anthu ochimwa chidzafera mʼmazira.
29 The way of YHWH is a stronghold to the upright, but it is a destruction to evildoers.
Njira za Yehova ndi linga loteteza anthu ochita zabwino, koma wochita zoyipa adzawonongeka.
30 The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not dwell in the land.
Munthu wolungama sadzachotsedwa, pamalo pake koma oyipa sadzakhazikika pa dziko.
31 The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but the perverse tongue will be cut off.
Pakamwa pa munthu wolungama pamatulutsa za nzeru, koma lilime lokhota lidzadulidwa.
32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked is perverse.
Milomo ya anthu olungama imadziwa zoyenera kuyankhula, koma pakamwa pa anthu ochimwa pamatulutsa zokhota zokhazokha.
