Proverbs 13
1 A wise son, [cometh of] a father’s correction, but, a scoffer, heareth not a rebuke.
Sie tulik lalmwetmet el lohang nu ke mwe luti lun papa tumal, a sie mwet inse fulat el tia ku in fahkak mu el tafongla.
2 Of the fruit of his mouth, shall a man eat what is good, but, the soul of the treacherous, [shall be sated with] violence.
Mwet wo fah eis mwe insewowo ke kas wo lalos, a elos su kutasrik elos suk na in oru ma sulallal.
3 He that watcheth his mouth, guardeth his soul, He that openeth wide his lips, [it shall be] his ruin.
El su karinganang kas lal el karingin moul lal; a el su kaskas pusla, el sifacna kunausulla.
4 The sluggard, desireth, but his soul hath, nothing. But, the soul of the diligent, shall be enriched.
Yohk kena lun sie mwet alsrangesr, a el ac tia ku in eis. Sie mwet alken ac eis ma nukewa ma el lungse.
5 A word of falsehood, the righteous man, hateth, but, the lawless, causeth shame and disgrace.
Mwet suwoswos elos srunga kas kikiap, a kas lun mwet koluk uh mwe mwekin ac mwe srungayuk.
6 Righteousness, guardeth the man of blameless way, but, lawlessness, overthroweth the sinner.
Moul suwohs mwe molela moul lun mwet su wangin mwata; a orekma koluk mwe kunausla moul lun mwet koluk.
7 There is who feigneth himself rich, yet hath nothing at all, who pleadeth poverty, yet hath great substance.
Kutu mwet uh oru mu elos kasrup, a wangin ma lalos; ac kutu mwet uh oru mu elos sukasrup, a yohk mwe kasrup lalos.
8 The ransom of a man’s life, is his wealth, but, the poor, heareth not rebuke.
Sie mwet kasrup enenu in orekmakin mani lal in molella liki mwet pwapa koluk, a wangin mwet aksangengye sie mwet sukasrup.
9 The light of the righteous, rejoiceth, but, the lamp of the lawless, goeth out.
Mwet suwoswos uh oana sie kalem saromrom; mwet koluk uh oana sie lam ma apkuran in kunla.
10 Only by pride, doth one cause contention, but, with the well-advised, is wisdom.
Inse fulat uh mwe sramtauk akukuin mukena. Elos su suk kas in kasru pa lalmwetmet.
11 Wealth gotten by greed, diminisheth, but, he that gathereth by little, increaseth.
Sie mwet fin eis mwe kasrup ke inkanek fisrasr, ac fah sa na in lisr. Mwet se ma orekma upa in konauk mwe kasrup lal, ac fah oasr ma lal pacl nukewa.
12 Hope deferred, sickeneth the heart, —but, a tree of life, is desire fulfilled.
Mwe finsrak lom fin pahtlana, kom ku in maskunak; a fin sun finsrak lom an, kom ac sessesla ke engan.
13 He that despiseth a matter, shall get pledged thereto, but, he that revereth a commandment, the same shall be recompensed.
Elos su srangesr eis kas in kasru, ac fah sun mwe ongoiya; elos su eis kas in kasru, elos ac fah moul in misla.
14 the instruction of the wise, is a well-spring of life, by departing from the snares of death.
Mwe luti lun mwet lalmwetmet uh, sie unon in moul su ac fah kasrekom in kaingkunla mwe sensen nu ke moul lom.
15 Sound discretion, yieldeth favour, but, the way of the treacherous, is rugged.
Akfulatyeyuk mwet lalmwetmet, a mwet ma tia ku in lulalfongiyuk fah sun mwe ongoiya.
16 Every prudent man, maketh use of knowledge, but, a dullard, spreadeth folly.
Mwet ma oasr nunak la elos nunkala mau in wo meet liki elos oru, a mwet lalfon uh akkalemye na nikin lalos.
17 A lawless messenger, falleth into mischief, but, a faithful herald, bringeth healing.
Sie mwet utuk kas soaru, ac sripauk lokoalok; a sie mwet utuk kas oaru, el orala misla.
18 Poverty and contempt, are for him that neglecteth correction, but, he that regardeth reproof, shall be honoured.
Sie mwet su srangesr lutlut, el ac sukasrup ac mwekin. Kutena mwet su porongo kas in kai uh, fah akfulatyeyuk.
19 A desire fulfilled, is sweet to the soul, but it is, an abomination to the lawless, to depart from evil.
Fuka woiya pacl se kom eis ma kom kena nu kac! A mwet lalfon uh tia lungse forla liki ma koluk.
20 He that walketh with the wise, becometh wise, but, the friend of dullards, becometh foolish.
Kupasr nu sin mwet lalmwetmet, ac kom fah lalmwetmet. Kom fin asruoki nu sin mwet lalfon, kom ac fah sun ongoiya.
21 Evil pursueth, sinners, but, unto the righteous, shall good be recompensed.
Mwe lokoalok uh ukwe mwet koluk nu yen nukewa, a ma wo uh ac fah itukyang nu sin mwet suwoswos.
22 A good man, leaveth an inheritance to children’s children, but, laid up for the righteous, is the wealth of the sinner.
Sie mwet wo ac fah akola mwe kasrup lal tuh tulik nutin tulik natul in usrui, a mwe kasrup lun mwet koluk fah som nu sin mwet suwoswos.
23 Much food, is in the fallow ground of the poor, but there is that is swept away, for want of justice.
Acn ma soenna imaiyuk lukun ku in orala mwe mongo na yohk nu sin mwet sukasrup, tuh mwet sesuwos uh sruokya lukelos in tia imaiyuk.
24 He that withholdeth his rod, hateth his son, —but, he that loveth him, carefully correcteth him.
Kom fin tia kai tulik nutum, kom tia lungse el. Kom fin lungse el, kom ac kael.
25 The righteous, eateth to satisfy his appetite, but, the belly of the lawless, shall want.
Mwet suwoswos elos kihp pacl nukewa, a mwet koluk elos masrinsral.
