Proverbs 24
1 Be not thou envious of wicked men, neither crave to be with them;
Saanmo nga ap-apalan dagiti dakes, wenno saanmo a tarigagayan ti makikadua kadakuada,
2 For, violence, their heart muttereth, and, mischief, their lips do speak.
gapu ta agpangpanggep dagiti pusoda kadagiti rinaranggas, ken agibagbaga dagiti bibigda iti maipanggep iti riribuk.
3 In wisdom, is a house builded, and, in understanding, is it established;
Babaen iti kinasirib, adda maipatakder a balay, ken babaen iti pannakaawat, naipasdek daytoy.
4 And, in knowledge, chambers are filled, with all acquisitions, costly and fair.
Babaen iti pannakaammo, napunno dagiti siled kadagiti agkakapateg ken agkakapintas a kinabaknang.
5 A wise man, is mighty, and, a man of knowledge, becometh alert in vigour.
Paneknekan ti masirib a tao a napigsa isuna, ken nasaysayaat ti tao nga addaan iti pannakaammo ngem iti tao a napigsa,
6 Surely, with concerted measures, shalt thou make for thyself war, and, success, lieth in the greatness of the counsellor.
ta babaen kadagiti nainsiriban a wagas ket mapagballigiam ti pannakigubatmo, ken adda balligi babaen kadagiti adu a mammagbaga.
7 Unattainable to a foolish man, are the dictates of wisdom, in the gate, he openeth not his mouth.
Ti kinasirib ket nangato unay para iti maag, saanna nga ilukat ti ngiwatna kadagiti ruangan.
8 He that deviseth to do mischief, him, shall men call, a master of plots.
Adda maysa a tao nga agpangpanggep nga agaramid iti dakes-nalaing nga agaramid iti linuloko ti iyaw-awag kenkuana dagiti tattao.
9 The purpose of folly, is sin, and, an abomination to mankind, is a buffoon.
Ti minamaag a panggep ket basol, ken um-umsien dagiti tattao ti mananglais.
10 Thou hast been slothful in the day of straitness, Strait, is thy strength.
No ipakpakitam ti kinatakrutmo iti aldaw ti riribuk, nakapuyka ngarud.
11 Deliver thou such as are being led forth to death, and, them who are tottering to slaughter, oh that thou wouldst hold back!
Ispalem dagiti maipanpanaw maiyap-apan iti ipapatay, ken tenglem dagiti agibar-ibar nga agturong iti pannakatayda.
12 Though thou say, Lo! we knew not this, Shall not, he that proveth hearts, himself, discern? And, he that formeth thy soul, himself, know? and bring back to a son of earth according to his deed?
No ibagam, “Awan ammomi maipanggep iti daytoy.” Saan kadi nga ammo ti Mangtimtimbang iti puso ti ibagbagam? Ken saan kadi nga ammo daytoy ti Mangsalsalaknib iti biagmo? Ken saan kadi nga itedto ti Dios no ania ti maikari iti tunggal maysa?
13 My son, eat thou honey, because it is good, —and droppings from the comb [because they are] sweet to thy palate:
Anakko, manganka iti diro gapu ta nasayaat daytoy, gapu ta ti tedted ti diro ket nasam-it iti panagramanmo.
14 Thus, take knowledge of wisdom, for thine own soul; If thou find it, then there is a future, and, thine expectation, shall not be cut off.
Kasta met ti kinasirib para iti kararuam- no birukem daytoy, addanto masakbayan ken saanto a mapukaw ti namnamam.
15 Do not lie in wait, thou lawless man, against the home of the righteous, —neither destroy thou his place of rest;
Saanka nga aglemmeng nga aguray a kas kadagiti nadangkes a tattao a mangdarup iti balay dagiti agar-aramid iti nalinteg. Saanmo a dadaelen ti pagtaenganna!
16 For, seven times, may the righteous fall and yet arise, but, lawless men, shall stumble into calamity.
Ta no matuang a maminpito ti tao nga agar-aramid ti nalinteg, bumangonto manen isuna, ngem dagiti nadangkes ket parmeken ti didigra.
17 When thine enemy falleth, do not thou rejoice, and, when he stumbleth, let not thy heart exult:
Saanka nga agrambak no marigrigatan ti kabusormo, ken saan koma nga aragsak ta pusom no maitublak isuna,
18 Lest Yahweh see it, and it be wicked in his eyes, and he turn away from him his anger.
ta no saan ket makita ni Yahweh ken amangan no saannaka a kanunongan gapu iti dayta ket saannan a kapungtot dayta a tao.
19 Burn not with vexation against evil doers, be not envious of lawless men;
Saanka nga agdanag gapu kadagiti agar-aramid kadagiti dakes a banbanag, ken saanmo nga apalan dagiti nadangkes a tattao,
20 For there shall be no future for the wicked, The lamp of the lawless, shall go out.
ta awan masakbayan ti dakes a tao, ken arigna a maiddepto ti lampara ti nadangkes.
21 Revere thou Yahweh, my son, and the king, and, with the fickle, have thou no fellowship;
Agbutengka kenni Yahweh, ken agbutengka iti ari, anakko; saanka a makikadua kadagiti mangsuksukir kadakuada,
22 For, suddenly, shall arise their calamity; and, the misfortune of their years, who knoweth?
ta giddatonto a dumteng ti didigrada ket siasino ti makaammo iti kadakkel ti pannakadadael a dumteng manipud kadakuada?
23 These things also, concern the wise, To take note of faces in judgment, is not good.
Dagitoy ket sasao met laeng dagiti masirib. No maipapan iti linteg, saan a nasayaat no adda panangidumduma iti panangukom.
24 He that saith to the lawless man, Righteous, thou art, peoples shall denounce him, populations shall curse him;
Siasinoman a mangibaga iti nagbasol, “Sika ti husto,” ket ilunodto dagiti tattao ken guraento dagiti nasion.
25 But, to reprovers, one should be pleasant, and, upon them, should come an excellent blessing:
Ngem maaddaanto iti kasta unay a ragsak dagiti mangtubngar kadagiti nadangkes, ken addanto dumteng kadakuada a sagsagut a nasasayaat.
26 Lips, should one kiss with one who answereth in right words.
Ti mangmangted iti pudno a sungbat ket arigna a mangmangted iti agek iti bibig.
27 Prepare, in the open, thy work, and make ready, in the field, for thyself, Afterwards, shalt thou build thy house.
Aramidem ti trabahom iti ruar, samo isagana ti talon; kalpasan dayta, ipatakdermon ti balaymo.
28 Do not become a needless witness against thy neighbour, so mightest thou open too wide thy lips:
Saanka nga agsaksi iti maibusor iti kaarubam nga awan ti gapgapuna, ken saanka a mangallilaw babaen kadagiti bibigmo.
29 Do not say—According to what he hath done to me, so, will I do to him, I will repay every one according to his work.
Saanmo nga ibaga, “Aramidekto kenkuana ti inaramidna kaniak; pagbayadekto isuna iti inaramidna.”
30 By the field of the sluggard, I passed, and by the vineyard of a man lacking sense;
Nagnaak iti talon ti tao a sadut, limmabasak iti kaubasan ti tao nga awan ammona.
31 And lo! there had come up all over it—thorns, there had covered the face thereof—thistles, and, the stone fence thereof, had been thrown down.
Nagtubtuboanen dagiti sisiit ti talonna, naabbonganen ti daga kadagiti siitan a mula, ken narban ti bato nga aladna.
32 So I observed it, for myself, I applied my heart, I looked—I accepted correction:
Kalpasanna, nakitak ket pinanunotko; kimmitaak ket nakasursuroak.
33 A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest:
Maturog pay bassit, iridep pay bassit, idalikepkep pay biit tapno makainana-
34 So shall come in, as a highwayman, thy poverty, and, thy want, as one armed with a shield.
ket dumteng kenka ti kinapanglaw a kas iti agtatakaw, ken dumteng kenka dagiti panagkasapulam a kasla dagitoy ket nakaarmas a soldado.
