< Proverbs 14 >
1 A wijs womman bildith hir hous; and an unwijs womman schal distrie with hondis an hous bildid.
Palungha nongpata loe a ohhaih im to sak; toe kamthu nongpata loe a im to a phraek.
2 A man goynge in riytful weie, and dredinge God, is dispisid of hym, that goith in a weie of yuel fame.
Angraeng zii kami loe katoeng loklam ah caeh; toe loklam amkhraeng kami loe Angraeng to khet patoek tihhaih ih ni.
3 The yerde of pride is in the mouth of a fool; the lippis of wijs men kepen hem.
Kamthu ih pakha loe amoekhaih quiboeng ah oh; toe palungha kami ih pahni mah loe nihcae to pahlong tih.
4 Where oxis ben not, the cratche is void; but where ful many cornes apperen, there the strengthe of oxe is opyn.
Maitaw om ai ahmuen ih maitaw okduk loe cai pin; toe maitaw ih tha hoiah cang to a hak mangh.
5 A feithful witnesse schal not lie; a gileful witnesse bringith forth a leesing.
Oep kaom hnukung loe kaminawk to aling ai; toe amsawn hnukung loe lok amlai.
6 A scornere sekith wisdom, and he fyndith not; the teching of prudent men is esy.
Minawk hnaphnae kami loe palunghahaih to pakrong, toe hnu ai; toe panoekhaih tawn kami hanah loe palungha zoidaek.
7 Go thou ayens a man a fool; and he schal not knowe the lippis of prudence.
Anih ih pahni ah palunghahaih om ai tiah na panoek nahaeloe, kamthu to om taak duem ah.
8 The wisdom of a fel man is to vndirstonde his weie; and the vnwarnesse of foolis errith.
Palungha kami loe a caehhaih loklam to palunghahaih hoiah poek; toe kamthu ih amthuhaih loe alinghaih ah oh.
9 A fool scorneth synne; grace schal dwelle among iust men.
Kamthu loe zaehaih to tiah doeh sah ai; toe katoeng kaminawk khaeah loe tahmenhaih to oh.
10 The herte that knowith the bittirnesse of his soule; a straunger schal not be meddlid in the ioie therof.
Palung mah palungsethaih to panoek; mi mah doeh angmah anghoehaih to minawk han paek thai ai.
11 The hous of wickid men schal be don awei; the tabernaclis of iust men schulen buriowne.
Kasae kami ih im loe amro tih; toe katoeng kami ih kahni im loe aquih tacawt tih.
12 Sotheli a weie is, that semeth iust to a man; but the laste thingis therof leden forth to deth.
Kami maeto khaeah katoeng loklam maeto baktiah amtueng pae; toe boenghaih ah loe duekhaih loklam ah oh.
13 Leiyyng schal be medlid with sorewe; and morenyng ocupieth the laste thingis of ioye.
Palungsethaih amtueng han ai ah pahnui kami doeh om tih; anghoehaih doeh palungsethaih hoiah boeng thaih.
14 A fool schal be fillid with hise weies; and a good man schal be aboue hym.
Hnuk angnawn kami loe a tok sakhaih atho to hnu tih; toe kahoih kami loe a sak ih hmuen baktih toengah tangqum to hnu tih.
15 An innocent man bileueth to eche word; a felle man biholdith hise goyngis.
Poek tawn ai kami loe minawk mah thuih ih loknawk boih to tang; toe palungha kami loe a caehhaih loklam to kahoih ah poek.
16 A wijs man dredith, and bowith awei fro yuel; a fool skippith ouer, and tristith.
Palungha kami loe Angraeng to zit moe, sethaih to cawn taak; toe kamthu loe poekham moe misahoih.
17 A man vnpacient schal worche foli; and a gileful man is odiouse.
Poek amthueng kami loe amthuhaih hoiah toksak; kahoih ai hmuen sak pacaeng kami loe minawk mah hnuma tih.
18 Litle men of wit schulen holde foli; and felle men schulen abide kunnyng.
Poekhaih tawn ai kami loe amthuhaih to qawk ah toep; toe palungha kaminawk loe palunghahaih lumuek to angmuek o.
19 Yuel men schulen ligge bifor goode men; and vnpitouse men bifor the yatis of iust men.
Kahoih ai kami loe katoeng kami hmaa ah angam sut tih; kasae kami doeh katoeng kami ih khongkha taengah angam sut tih.
20 A pore man schal be hateful, yhe, to his neiybore; but many men ben frendis of riche men.
Amtang kami loe a imtaeng kami mah doeh hnukma; toe angraeng loe ampui tawn mangh.
21 He that dispisith his neiybore, doith synne; but he that doith merci to a pore man, schal be blessid. He that bileueth in the Lord, loueth merci;
Kami zae loe a imtaeng kami to khet patoek; toe kamtang tahmen kami loe tahamhoih.
22 thei erren that worchen yuel. Merci and treuthe maken redi goodis;
Sethaih poek kaminawk loe loklam caeh pazae o boeh na ai maw? Toe kahoih hmuen poek kaminawk loe amlunghaih hoi oepthohhaih to hnuk o.
23 abundaunce `schal be in ech good werk. Sotheli where ful many wordis ben, there nedynesse is ofte.
Toksakhaih boih ah toksakhaih atho to oh; toe lok khue thui kami loe amtang tih.
24 The coroun of wise men is the richessis of hem; the fooli of foolis is vnwarnesse.
Palungha kaminawk ih angraenghaih loe angmacae ih sui lumuek ah oh; toe kamthunawk amthuhaih mah loe amthuhaih to tacawtsak aep.
25 A feithful witnesse delyuereth soulis; and a fals man bringith forth leesyngis.
Tangtang hnukung mah loe hinghaih to pahlong; toe amsawn hnukung ah kaom kami loe amsawnlok to thuih.
26 In the drede of the Lord is triste of strengthe; and hope schal be to the sones of it.
Angraeng zii kami loe kacak oephaih to tawn ueloe, a caanawk abuephaih ahmuen doeh tawn tih.
27 The drede of the Lord is a welle of lijf; that it bowe awei fro the fallyng of deth.
Angraeng zithaih loe hinghaih tuipuek ah oh moe, duekhaih dongh thung hoiah loisakkung ah oh.
28 The dignite of the king is in the multitude of puple; and the schenschipe of a prince is in the fewnesse of puple.
Kami pop prae thungah loe siangpahrang lensawkhaih to cak; toe kami tamsi prae ah loe siangpahrang amrohaih ah oh.
29 He that is pacient, is gouerned bi myche wisdom; but he that is vnpacient, enhaunsith his foli.
Panoekhaih kathuk kami loe palungsawk; toe poek amthueng kami loe amthuhaih to amtuengsak.
30 Helthe of herte is the lijf of fleischis; enuye is rot of boonys.
Poekhoih palung mah taksa to ngantuisak; toe uthaih mah loe huhong to hmawnsak.
31 He that falsli chalengith a nedi man, dispisith his maker; but he that hath merci on a pore man, onourith that makere.
Kamtang pacaekthlaek kami loe angmah Sahkung to ni pacaekthlaek; toe Sithaw khingya kami loe kamtang nuiah palungnathaih to tawnh.
32 A wickid man is put out for his malice; but a iust man hopith in his deth.
Kasae kami loe a sethaih mah kraksak tathuk; toe katoeng kami loe duek naah doeh oephaih to tawnh.
33 Wisdom restith in the herte of a wijs man; and he schal teche alle vnlerned men.
Palungha kami ih palung thungah palunghahaih to oh; toe kamthu ih palung thungah kaom hmuen loe amtueng phaeng.
34 Riytfulnesse reisith a folc; synne makith puplis wretchis.
Toenghaih mah prae kaminawk to sangsak tahang; toe zaehaih loe kami boih kasaethuihaih ah oh.
35 A mynystre vndurstondynge is acceptable to a kyng; a mynystre vnprofitable schal suffre the wrathfulnesse of him.
Siangpahrang loe palungha tamna nuiah anghoe; toe azatsak thaih tamna loe angraeng to palungphuisak.
