Proverbs 12
1 He that loueth chastisyng, loueth kunnyng; but he that hatith blamyngis, is vnwijs.
Onye ọbụla na-ahụ ịdọ aka na ntị nʼanya na-ahụ ihe ọmụma nʼanya, ma onye na-akpọ ịba mba asị bụ onye na-enweghị ụbụrụ isi.
2 He that is good, schal drawe to hym silf grace of the Lord; but he that tristith in hise thouytis, doith wickidli.
Ezi mmadụ na-anata ihuọma site nʼaka Onyenwe anyị, ma onye na-atụpụta atụmatụ ọjọọ ka ọ na-ama ikpe.
3 A man schal not be maad strong by wyckidnesse; and the root of iust men schal not be moued.
Onye ajọ omume agaghị anọgide, ma apụghị ihopu onye ezi omume.
4 A diligent womman is a coroun to hir hosebond; and rot is in the boonys of that womman, that doith thingis worthi of confusioun.
Ezi nwanyị bụ ọṅụ na okpueze di ya, ma nwanyị na-eweta ihere dịka ire ure nʼọkpụkpụ di ya.
5 The thouytis of iust men ben domes; and the counselis of wickid men ben gileful.
Echiche obi niile nke onye ezi omume bụ ihe ziri ezi, ma ndụmọdụ onye ajọ omume jupụtara nʼaghụghọ.
6 The wordis of wickid men setten tresoun to blood; the mouth of iust men schal delyuere hem.
Okwu niile nke ndị ajọ omume bụ ihe na-eweta ọnwụ, ma okwu ndị omume ha ziri ezi na-anapụta ha.
7 Turne thou wickid men, and thei schulen not be; but the housis of iust men schulen dwelle perfitli.
Ndị na-emebi iwu ga-ala nʼiyi, ma ndị ezi omume ga-eguzosi ike.
8 A man schal be knowun bi his teching; but he that is veyn and hertles, schal be open to dispising.
Onye nwere uche zuruoke ka mmadụ niile na-achọ, ma onye uche ya gbagọrọ agbagọ ka mmadụ na-eleda anya.
9 Betere is a pore man, and sufficient to him silf, than a gloriouse man, and nedi of breed.
Ọ ka mma ịbụ onye a na-elelị anya ma i nwere ohu, karịa ịbụ onye a na-asọpụrụ ma bụrụ onye nri na-adịghị nʼụlọ ya.
10 A iust man knowith the soulis of hise werk beestis; but the entrailis of wickid men ben cruel.
Onye ezi omume na-elekọta anụ ụlọ ya, ma obi ebere kachasị nro nke onye ajọ omume mere bụ enweghị obi ebere.
11 He that worchith his lond, schal be fillid with looues; but he that sueth idilnesse, is moost fool. He that is swete, lyueth in temperaunces; and in hise monestyngis he forsakith dispisyngis.
Onye na-arụ ala ubi ya ga-enwe nri nʼebe ọ bara ụba, ma onye na-agbaso ihe efu dị iche iche, amamihe kọrọ.
12 The desir of a wickid man is the memorial of worste thingis; but the roote of iust men schal encreesse.
Ndị ajọ omume na-enwekwa anya ukwu nʼihe ndị ajọ omume ibe ha nwere, ma mgbọrọgwụ nke ndị ezi omume ga-eto eto.
13 For the synnes of lippis `falling doun neiyeth to an yuel man; but a iust man schal scape fro angwisch.
A na-ejide onye ajọ omume site nʼokwu ọnụ ya, ma onye ezi omume na-esi na nsogbu wezuga onwe ya.
14 Of the fruyt of his mouth ech man schal be fillid with goodis; and bi the werkis of hise hondis it schal be yoldun to him.
Ikwu eziokwu na-enye mmadụ obi ụtọ, inwe mgbalị na-ewetara ya ngọzị.
15 The weie of a fool is riytful in hise iyen; but he that is wijs, herith counsels.
Ụzọ ndị nzuzu nʼuche ha onwe ha ziri ezi, ma onye maara ihe na-aṅa ntị nye ndụmọdụ.
16 A fool schewith anoon his ire; but he that dissymelith wrongis, is wijs.
Ndị nzuzu na-egosipụta iwe ha ọsịịsọ, ma onye nwere uche na-elepụrụ mkparị anya.
17 He that spekith that, that he knowith, is a iuge of riytfulnesse; but he that lieth, is a gileful witnesse.
Ezi onye akaebe na-ekwu eziokwu, ma ajọ onye akaebe na-ekwu okwu ụgha.
18 A man is that bihetith, and he is prickid as with the swerd of conscience; but the tunge of wise men is helthe.
Okwu ọjọọ na-agbawa obi dịka mma agha, ma ire onye maara ihe na-eweta ọgwụgwọ.
19 The lippe of treuthe schal be stidfast with outen ende; but he that is a sudeyn witnesse, makith redi the tunge of leesyng.
Eziokwu na-eguzo ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, ma okwu ụgha anaghị adịgide.
20 Gile is in the herte of hem that thenken yuels; but ioye sueth hem, that maken counsels of pees.
Aghụghọ na-ejupụta nʼobi na-eche ihe ọjọọ; ma ndị na-eme ka udo dị na-enwe ọṅụ.
21 What euere bifallith to a iust man, it schal not make hym sori; but wickid men schulen be fillid with yuel.
Ihe ọjọọ anaghị adakwasị onye ezi omume, ma ndị ajọ omume enwetala nsogbu ebe ọ dị ukwuu.
22 False lippis is abhominacioun to the Lord; but thei that don feithfuli, plesen him.
Onyenwe anyị kpọrọ egbugbere ọnụ nʼagha ụgha asị, ma ihe ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi na-amasị ya.
23 A fel man hilith kunnyng; and the herte of vnwise men stirith foli.
Onye nwere uche na-edebe ihe ọmụma ha nye onwe ha, ma onye nzuzu na-agbasa enweghị uche ya nʼanwụ.
24 The hond of stronge men schal haue lordschip; but the hond that is slow, schal serue to tributis.
Aka na-arụsị ọrụ ike ga-achị achị, ma umengwụ ga-akwụsị naanị nʼọrụ mmanye.
25 Morenynge in the herte of a iust man schal make hym meke; and he schal be maad glad bi a good word.
Obi nke jupụtara na nchegbu na-ada mba, ma okwu ọma na-eme ka obi ṅụrịa.
26 He that dispisith harm for a frend, is a iust man; but the weie of wickid men schal disseyue hem.
Onye ezi omume na-eduzi onye agbataobi ya, ma onye na-emebi iwu na-eduhie ha.
27 A gileful man schal not fynde wynnyng; and the substaunce of man schal be the prijs of gold.
Onye umengwụ adịghị ahụ anụ ọ chụtara na nta nʼọkụ, ma ndị na-arụsị ọrụ ike na-eri site nʼakụ ha nwetara nʼịchụ nta.
28 Lijf is in the path of riytfulnesse; but the wrong weie leedith to deeth.
Ụzọ nke onye ezi omume na-eduba na ndụ, nʼụzọ ahụ, ọnwụ adịghị ya.
