< Proverbs 18 >
1 Those who separate themselves [from other people] think [only] about those things that they are interested in; [if they would continually associate with] those who have good judgment/sense, they would constantly disagree/quarrel with them.
Чел урсуз каутэ че-й плаче луй, се супэрэ де орьче лукру бун.
2 Foolish people do not want to understand [anything]; they only want to (express their [own] opinions/say what they think) [IDM].
Небунулуй ну-й есте де ынвэцэтурэ, чи вря сэ арате че штие ел.
3 Whenever people do wicked things, others will despise them; when people do things that cause themselves to no [longer] be honored, they will be disgraced [also].
Кынд вине чел рэу, вине ши диспрецул ши, одатэ ку рушиня, вине ши окара.
4 What wise people say is [like] a deep ocean [that you can never get to the bottom of] [MET], and it [refreshes us like water from] a rapidly flowing stream.
Кувинтеле гурий унуй ом сунт ка ниште апе адынчь; изворул ынцелепчуний есте ка ун шувой каре курӂе ынтруна.
5 It is not good [for a judge] to decide matters in favor of those who (are guilty/have done wicked things) and to not do what is just for those who (are innocent/have not done what is wrong).
Ну есте бине сэ ай ын ведере фаца челуй рэу, ка сэ недрептэцешть пе чел неприхэнит ла жудекатэ.
6 When foolish people [SYN] start arguments, [it is as though] they [SYN] are requesting/inviting someone to flog/whip them.
Ворбеле небунулуй адук чартэ ши гура луй ынжурэ пынэ стырнеште ловитурь.
7 What foolish people [MTY] say causes them to be ruined; their [own] words are [like] a trap [MET] [that catches/seizes] them.
Гура небунулуй ый адуче пеиря ши бузеле ый сунт о курсэ пентру суфлет.
8 [People enjoy listening to] what gossips say like [SIM] [they enjoy] tasty food; they [accept what gossips tell them like] [MET] they swallow tasty food.
Кувинтеле бырфиторулуй сунт ка прэжитуриле: алунекэ пынэ ын фундул мэрунтаелор.
9 People who are lazy while they work are [just as bad] as [IDM] those who destroy things.
Чине се леневеште ын лукрул луй есте фрате ку чел че нимичеште.
10 Yahweh [MTY] is [like] a strong tower [MET]; righteous people [can] go to him and be safe [like they can run to a tower to be safe].
Нумеле Домнулуй есте ун турн таре; чел неприхэнит фуӂе ын ел ши стэ ла адэпост.
11 Rich people [are protected because they have] a lot of money [PRS] like a city is protected because it has a high wall surrounding it [SIM].
Аверя есте о четате ынтэритэ пентру чел богат; ын ынкипуиря луй, еа есте ун зид ыналт.
12 Proud people are on the road to being ruined, but being humble leads to being honored.
Ынаинте де пеире, инима омулуй се ынгымфэ, дар смерения мерӂе ынаинтя славей.
13 Those who reply to someone before that person has finished speaking are foolish; doing that is disgraceful.
Чине рэспунде фэрэ сэ фи аскултат фаче о простие ши ышь траӂе рушиня.
14 A desire to [continue to] live can sustain someone when he is sick; if he loses that desire, he (cannot endure it/will become very discouraged) when he is sick [RHQ].
Духул омулуй ыл сприжинэ ла боалэ. Дар духул доборыт де ынтристаре, чине-л ва ридика?
15 Intelligent people [are always wanting to] learn more; wise people [SYN] are not content with what they already know.
О инимэ причепутэ добындеште штиинца ши урекя челор ынцелепць каутэ штиинца.
16 If you take a gift to an important person, that will open the way to allow you to talk to him.
Даруриле унуй ом ый фак лок ши-й дескид интраря ынаинтя челор марь.
17 The first person to present his case in court seems right, but when (someone else/his opponent) begins to ask him questions, [it may become clear that what he said was not true].
Чел каре ворбеште ынтый ын причина луй паре кэ аре дрептате, дар вине челэлалт ши-л я ла черчетаре.
18 If two influential/important people are arguing, [someone can] settle the matter by (casting lots/throwing marked stones to decide who is right).
Сорцул пуне капэт неынцелеӂерилор ши хотэрэште ынтре чей путерничь.
19 If you help relatives, they will [protect you] like [SIM] a strong wall [protects a city], but if you quarrel with them, [that will separate you from them] like bars on a city gate [separate the city from those who want to enter it] [MET].
Фраций недрептэциць сунт май греу де кыштигат декыт о четате ынтэритэ ши чертуриле лор сунт тот аша де греу де ынлэтурат ка зэвоареле уней касе ымпэрэтешть.
20 People are happy when they hear others say [MTY] something that is good, [like] they are happy when they eat food that is good [MET].
Дин родул гурий луй ышь сатурэ омул трупул, дин венитул бузелор луй се сатурэ.
21 What you say can cause others to be killed or it can cause them to [continue to] live; [so] those who like [to talk a lot] must (accept the consequences/realize that what they say can cause much harm).
Моартя ши вяца сунт ын путеря лимбий; орьчине о юбеште ый ва мынка роаделе.
22 If you marry a [good] woman, that is [like] finding a wonderful thing; [it shows that] Yahweh is pleased with you.
Чине гэсеште о невастэ бунэ гэсеште феричиря; есте ун хар пе каре-л капэтэ де ла Домнул.
23 [It is necessary for] poor [people] to speak politely when they request [rich people to do something for them], but rich [people] reply very impolitely when poor people speak to them.
Сэракул ворбеште ругынду-се, дар богатул рэспунде ку асприме.
24 There are [some] people who [only] pretend to be friends [with us], but there are [some] friends who are more loyal than members of our families.
Чине ышь фаче мулць приетень ый фаче спре ненорочиря луй, дар есте ун приетен каре цине май мулт ла тине декыт ун фрате.
