Proverbs 9
1 Wisdom has built her own house; she has carved seven pillars out of rocks.
बुद्धिले आफ्नै घर बनाएको छ । त्यसले चट्टानबाट सातवटा खम्बा गाडेको छ ।
2 She has slaughtered her animals; she has mixed her wine; and she has set her table.
त्यसले आफ्ना पशुहरू मारेको छ । त्यसले आफ्नो दाखमद्य मिसाएको छ, र त्यसले आफ्नो टेबुल तयार पारेको छ ।
3 She has sent out her maids; she calls out from the highest points of the city,
त्यसले आफ्ना दासीहरूलाई बाहिर पठाएको छ । त्यो सहरको सबैभन्दा अग्लो टाकुराबाट चिच्च्याउँछ ।
4 “Who is naive? Let him turn aside here!” To the one lacking good sense she speaks.
“निर्बुद्धि को हो? त्यो यहाँ फर्कोस् ।” त्यो समझ नभएको व्यक्तिसित बोल्छ ।
5 “Come, eat my food, and drink the wine I have mixed.
“आएर मेरो खाना खाओ, र मैले मिसाएको दाखमद्य पिओ ।
6 Leave your naive actions and live; walk in the path of understanding.
आफ्ना निर्बुद्धि चालहरू त्यागेर बाँच । समझशक्तिको मार्गमा हिँड ।
7 Whoever disciplines a mocker receives abuse, and whoever rebukes a wicked person receives insults.
गिल्ला गर्नेलाई अनुशासनमा राख्नेले दुर्व्यवहार पाउँछ, र दुष्ट व्यक्तिलाई हप्काउनेले अपमान पाउँछ ।
8 Do not reprove a mocker, or he will hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
गिल्ला गर्नेलाई नहप्का, नत्रता त्यसले तँलाई घृणा गर्ने छ । बुद्धिमान् मानिसलाई हप्का, र त्यसले तँलाई प्रेम गर्ने छ ।
9 Give to a wise person, and he will become even wiser; teach a righteous person, and he will add to his learning.
बुद्धिमान् व्यक्तिलाई निर्देशन दे, र त्यो अझै बुद्धिमान् हुने छ । धर्मी व्यक्तिलाई सिका, र त्यो अझै सिपालु हुने छ ।
10 The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
परमप्रभुको भय नै बुद्धिको सुरु हो, र परमपवित्रको ज्ञान नै समझशक्ति हो ।
11 For through me your days will be multiplied, and years of life will be added to you.
किनकि मद्वारा तेरा दिनहरू धेरै हुने छन्, र तेरो आयु लामो हुने छ ।
12 If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, and if you mock, you will carry it by yourself.”
तँ बुद्धिमान् भइस् भने तँ आफ्नै लागि बुद्धमान् हुने छस् । तैँले गिल्ला गरिस् भने तैँले त्यो आफैसित बोक्ने छस् ।”
13 The woman of foolishness is ignorant; she is untaught and knows nothing.
मूर्ख स्त्री अज्ञानी हुन्छे । त्यो अशिक्षित हुन्छे र त्यसलाई केही थाहा हुँदैन ।
14 She sits at the door of her house, on a seat in the highest places of the town.
त्यो आफ्नो घरको ढोकामा, सहरका सबैभन्दा अग्ला ठाउँहरूमा बस्छे ।
15 She is calling out to those who pass by in the streets, to people walking straight on their way.
त्यसले सडकमा हिँड्नेहरू, आफ्नो बाटोम सिधा अगाडि बढ्नेहरूलाई डाक्दै छे ।
16 “Let anyone who is naive turn aside here,” she says to those who have no sense.
“कोही निर्बुद्धि छ भने त्यो यहाँ फर्कोस्,” समझशक्ति नभएकाहरूलाई त्यसले भन्छे ।
17 “Stolen waters are sweet, and bread of secrecy is delicious.”
“चोरीको पानी मिठो हुन्छ, र गुप्तमा खाएको रोटी स्वादिष्ट हुन्छ ।”
