Proverbs 10
1 These [are more] proverbs/wise sayings from Solomon: If children are wise, they cause their parents to be happy; but if children are foolish, they cause their parents to be very sad.
En vis son är sins faders glädje; men en galen son är sine moders grämelse.
2 Money that you get by doing dishonest/wicked things will really not benefit you; but by living righteously you will live for (a long time/many years).

4 Lazy people [soon] become poor; it is those who work hard who become rich.

Den som församlar om sommaren, han är klok; men den som i andene sofver, han kommer på skam.
6 Righteous [people will] be blessed [by God]; [the nice things] that wicked [people] say [MTY] [sometimes] conceal the fact that they [are planning to] act violently.
Välsignelse är öfver dens rättfärdigas hufvud; men de ogudaktigas mun skall deras vrånghet öfverfalla.

Den ogudaktige är såsom ett väder, det framom går, och är icke mer till; men den rättfärdige består evigliga.
