Proverbs 19
1 Conducting our lives as we should [even though] we are poor is better than being foolish and telling lies.
Dürüst yaşayan bir yoksul olmak, Yalancı bir akılsız olmaktan yeğdir.
2 Being enthusiastic but not thinking carefully [about what we are about to do] is not good; doing things hastily can cause us a lot of trouble [IDM].
Bilgisiz heves işe yaramaz, Acelecilik insanı yanılgıya düşürür.
3 Some people are ruined as a result of their [own] foolish actions, and when that happens, they [SYN] angrily say that it is Yahweh’s fault.
İnsanın ahmaklığı yaşamını yıkar, Yine de içinden RAB'be öfkelenir.
4 Those who are rich easily find people who want to be their friends, but when [people become] poor, their friends [often] desert them.
Zenginlik dost üstüne dost kazandırır. Oysa yoksulun dostu onu yüzüstü bırakır.
5 Those who tell lies in court will surely be punished [LIT]; they will not escape it.
Yalancı tanık cezasız kalmaz, Yalan soluyan kurtulamaz.
6 Many [people] try to persuade important people to do favors for them; everyone [wants to] be a friend of those who give gifts.
Birçokları önemli kişinin gözüne girmek Ve eli açık olanın dostu olmak ister.
7 [Even] the relatives of someone who becomes poor hate him, and his friends certainly stay away from him, too; [even] if he tries to talk with them, they will not be his friends [again].
Yoksulun akrabaları bile onu sevmezse, Dostlarının ondan uzak duracağı daha da kesindir. Ne kadar yalvarsa ona yaklaşmazlar.
8 Those who become wise [IDM] are doing a favor for themselves; those who get good sense will prosper.
Sağduyulu olan canını sever, Aklı izleyen bolluğa kavuşur.
9 Those who tell lies in court will certainly be punished [LIT]; they will be ruined.
Yalancı tanık cezasız kalmaz, Yalan soluyan yok olur.
10 It is not appropriate for foolish people to live (luxuriously/like rich people), and it is even less appropriate for slaves to rule important officials.
Akılsızın gösterişli bir yaşam sürmesi uygun değilse, Kölelerin önderlere egemen olması Hiç uygun değildir.
11 Those who have good sense do not quickly become angry; people respect those who ignore offensive [things that people say to them].
Sağduyulu kişi sabırlıdır, Kusurları hoş görmesi ona onur kazandırır.
12 When a king is angry, [that causes people to be afraid of him], like the roar of a lion [causes people to be afraid] [SIM], but if he acts kindly toward people, [they like it just] like [they like] dew on the grass [in the morning].
Kralın öfkesi genç aslanın kükreyişine benzer, Lütfuysa otların üzerine düşen çiy gibidir.
13 Foolish children [can] cause disasters to happen to their parents. A wife who constantly (nags/quarrels with) [her husband is as annoying as] water that continually drips [MET].
Akılsız çocuk babasının başına beladır, Dırdır eden kadın sürekli damlayan su gibidir.
14 We [can] inherit a house or money from our parents [when they die], but only Yahweh [can] give someone a sensible wife.
Ev ve servet babadan mirastır, Ama sağduyulu kadın RAB'bin armağanıdır.
15 Those who are lazy sleep soundly, but if they are lazy, they will be hungry [because of not earning money to buy food].
Tembellik insanı uyuşukluğa iter, Haylaz kişi de aç kalır.
16 Those who obey [God’s] commandments will remain alive [for a long time]; those who despise/disobey them (OR, those who do not control their own conduct) will die [while they are still young].
Tanrı buyruğuna uyan canını korur, Gitmesi gereken yolları umursamayan ölür.
17 When we give things to poor [people], [it is as though] we are lending to Yahweh, and he will (pay us back/reward us for what we did).
Yoksula acıyan kişi RAB'be ödünç vermiş olur, Yaptığı iyilik için RAB onu ödüllendirir.
18 Discipline your children while [they are young], while you still hope that [they will learn to behave as they should]; [if you do not discipline them], you are helping them to destroy [themselves].
Henüz umut varken çocuğunu eğit, Onun yıkımına neden olma.
19 Those who (do not control their temper/quickly become very angry) will have to endure what happens as a result; [but] if we rescue them [from those troubles once], we will have to continue rescuing them.
Huysuz insan cezasını çekmelidir. Onu bir kere kurtarsan da, hep aynı şeyi yapman gerekir.
20 Pay attention when [people give you good] advice and learn from them, in order that you will become wise for the rest of your life.
Öğüde kulak ver, terbiyeyi kabul et ki, Ömrünün kalan kısmı boyunca bilge olasın.
21 People plan to do many [kinds of things], but what will happen is what Yahweh has decided will happen.
İnsan yüreğinde çok şey tasarlar, Ama gerçekleşen, RAB'bin amacıdır.
22 People want others to be loyal to them; it is better to be poor than to tell a lie [to a judge in court in order to get money].
İnsandan istenen vefadır, Yoksul olmak yalancı olmaktan yeğdir.
23 [Those who have] an awesome respect for Yahweh will live [a long life]; they rest peacefully and are not harmed [during the night].
RAB korkusu Doygun ve dertsiz bir yaşama kavuşturur.
24 Some people are extremely lazy; they put their hand in a dish [to take some food] but do not even lift the food up to their mouths.
Tembel sahana daldırdığı elini Ağzına geri götürmek bile istemez.
25 If you punish someone who makes fun of those who are wise, those who (are naive/need to be instructed) will learn to do what is smart; if you rebuke those who are wise, they will [listen to what you say and] become wiser.
Alaycıyı döversen bön kişi ibret alır, Akıllı kişiyi azarlarsan bilgisine bilgi katar.
26 Anyone who mistreats/abuses his father or forces his mother to leave the home is a child who is acting shamefully and disgracefully.
Babasına saldıran, annesini kovan çocuk, Ailesinin utancı ve yüzkarasıdır.
27 My son, if you stop learning things, you will [soon] forget what [you already] know.
Oğlum, uyarılara kulağını tıkarsan, Bilgi kaynağı sözlerden saparsın.
28 Worthless witnesses [in court] make fun of [judges who try to] make fair decisions, and wicked people [enjoy] doing evil [like] they enjoy eating [good food] [MET].
Niyeti bozuk tanık adaletle eğlenir, Kötülerin ağzı fesatla beslenir.
29 [God] is ready to punish those who make fun [of him/religion]; those who do foolish things deserve to be flogged/whipped.
Alaycılar için ceza, Akılsızların sırtı için kötek hazırdır.
