Proverbs 27
1 Haue thou not glorie on the morewe, `not knowynge what thing the dai to comynge schal bringe forth.
Pa vin ògeye sou bagay demen, paske ou pa konnen kisa yon jou ka pote.
2 Another man, and not thi mouth preise thee; a straunger, and not thi lippis `preise thee.
Kite yon lòt moun ba ou lwanj, e pa fè ak pwòp bouch ou. Kite l fèt pa yon ou pa konnen, e pa de pwòp lèv ou.
3 A stoon is heuy, and grauel is chariouse; but the ire of a fool is heuyere than euer eithir.
Yon gwo wòch lou ak sab gen pwa; men moun ensanse k ap anmède a pi lou pase yo tou de.
4 Ire hath no merci, and woodnesse brekynge out `hath no merci; and who mai suffre the fersnesse of a spirit stirid?
Fachez rèd fè move. Kòlè se yon inondasyon. Men se kilès ki ka kanpe devan jalouzi.
5 Betere is opyn repreuyng, than loue hid.
Repwòch ki klè pi bon pase lanmou ki kache.
6 Betere ben the woundis of hym that loueth, than the gileful cossis of hym that hatith.
Fidèl se blese a yon zanmi; men twonpri se bo a yon ènmi.
7 A man fillid schal dispise an hony coomb; but an hungri man schal take, yhe, bittir thing for swete.
Moun vant plen rayi siwo myèl; men pou sila ki grangou, nenpòt bagay anmè vin dous.
8 As a brid passinge ouer fro his nest, so is a man that forsakith his place.
Tankou yon zwazo ki egare nich li, se konsa yon nonm ki mache lwen kay li.
9 The herte delitith in oynement, and dyuerse odours; and a soule is maad swete bi the good counsels of a frend.
Lwil ak pafen fè kè kontan; se konsa konsèy a yon nonm dous pou zanmi li.
10 Forsake thou not thi frend, and the frend of thi fadir; and entre thou not in to the hous of thi brothir, in the dai of thi turment. Betere is a neiybore nyy, than a brothir afer.
Pa abandone pwòp zanmi ou, ni zanmi a papa ou. Pa ale lakay frè ou nan jou malè ou. Pi bon se yon vwazen toupre pase yon frè ki byen lwen.
11 Mi sone, studie thou a boute wisdom, and make thou glad myn herte; that thou maist answere a word to a dispisere.
Sèvi ak sajès, fis mwen, e fè kè m kontan pou m kab reponn sila ki repwoche mwen an.
12 A fel man seynge yuel was hid; litle men of wit passinge forth suffriden harmes.
Yon nonm ki saj wè mal e li kache kò l; men sila ki fou a avanse pou peye pri a.
13 Take thou awei his clooth, that bihiyte for a straunger; and take thou awei a wed fro hym for an alien man.
Pran vètman li lè l sèvi garanti pou yon enkoni, e pou yon fanm adiltè, kenbe mesye a menm kon garanti a.
14 He that blessith his neiybore with greet vois; and risith bi niyt, schal be lijk hym that cursith.
Sila ki beni zanmi li ak gwo vwa bonè maten an, sa va rekonèt kon madichon pou li.
15 Roouys droppynge in the dai of coold, and a womman ful of chidyng ben comparisond.
Dlo k ap degoute san rete nan jou gwo lapli avèk fanm k ap fè kont san rete sòti menm jan:
16 He that withholdith hir, as if he holdith wynd; and auoidith the oile of his riyt hond.
Sila ki ta anpeche fanm sa a, vle anpeche van, oswa sezi lwil ak men dwat li.
17 Yrun is whettid bi irun; and a man whettith the face of his frend.
Se fè ki file fè; se konsa yon nonm file zanmi l.
18 He that kepith a fige tre, schal ete the fruytis therof; and he that is a kepere of his lord, schal be glorified.
Sila ki pran swen pye fig la va manje fwi li, e sila ki pran swen mèt li a va jwenn lonè.
19 As the cheris of men biholdinge schynen in watris; so the hertis of men ben opyn to prudent men.
Tankou nan dlo, figi reflete figi, konsa kè a yon nonm reflete lentansyon l.
20 Helle and perdicioun schulen not be fillid; so and the iyen of men moun not be fillid. (Sheol h7585)
Sejou Lanmò ak labim pa janm satisfè; ni zye a lòm pa janm satisfè. (Sheol h7585)
21 As siluer is preuyd in a wellyng place, and gold `is preued in a furneys; so a man is preued bi the mouth of preyseris. The herte of a wickid man sekith out yuels; but a riytful herte sekith out kunnyng.
Po fonn nan se pou ajan, e founo se pou lò; konsa, yon nom rafine pa lwanj ke l resevwa.
22 Thouy thou beetist a fool in a morter, as with a pestel smytynge aboue dried barli; his foli schal not be don awei fro him.
Malgre ou ta foule yon moun fou ak pilon jiskaske li fè poud, tankou sereyal byen kraze a, foli li p ap sòti sou li.
23 Knowe thou diligentli the cheere of thi beeste; and biholde thou thi flockis.
Konnen byen kondisyon a bann ou yo, e okipe twoupo ou yo;
24 For thou schalt not haue power contynueli; but a coroun schal be youun to thee in generacioun and in to generacioun.
paske richès pa la pou tout tan, ni yon kouwòn pa rete pandan tout jenerasyon.
25 Medewis ben openyd, and greene eerbis apperiden; and hey is gaderid fro hillis.
Zèb yo vin disparèt, e sa ki nèf la vin pouse, e zèb mòn yo fin ranmase.
26 Lambren be to thi clothing; and kidis be to the prijs of feeld.
Jenn mouton yo va sèvi kon vètman ou, e kabrit yo va mennen pri a yon chan.
27 The mylke of geete suffice to thee for thi meetis; in to the necessarie thingis of thin hous, and to lijflode to thin handmaidis.
Lèt kabrit ap kont pou manje ou, pou manje tout lakay ou, ak soutyen pou tout sèvant lakay ou yo.
