Proverbs 29
1 Sodeyn perischyng schal come on that man, that with hard nol dispisith a blamere; and helth schal not sue hym.
| אִ֣ישׁ תֹּ֭וכָחֹות מַקְשֶׁה־עֹ֑רֶף פֶּ֥תַע יִ֝שָּׁבֵ֗ר וְאֵ֣ין מַרְפֵּֽא׃ |
2 The comynalte schal be glad in the multipliyng of iust men; whanne wickid men han take prinshod, the puple schal weyle.
| בִּרְבֹ֣ות צַ֭דִּיקִים יִשְׂמַ֣ח הָעָ֑ם וּבִמְשֹׁ֥ל רָ֝שָׁ֗ע יֵאָ֥נַֽח עָֽם׃ |
3 A man that loueth wisdom, makith glad his fadir; but he that nurschith `an hoore, schal leese catel.
| אִֽישׁ־אֹהֵ֣ב חָ֭כְמָה יְשַׂמַּ֣ח אָבִ֑יו וְרֹעֶ֥ה זֹ֝ונֹ֗ות יְאַבֶּד־הֹֽון׃ |
4 A iust king reisith the lond; an auerouse man schal distrie it.
| מֶ֗לֶךְ בְּ֭מִשְׁפָּט יַעֲמִ֣יד אָ֑רֶץ וְאִ֖ישׁ תְּרוּמֹ֣ות יֶֽהֶרְסֶֽנָּה׃ |
5 A man that spekith bi flaterynge and feyned wordis to his frend; spredith abrood a net to hise steppis.
| גֶּ֭בֶר מַחֲלִ֣יק עַל־רֵעֵ֑הוּ רֶ֝֗שֶׁת פֹּורֵ֥שׂ עַל־פְּעָמָֽיו׃ |
6 A snare schal wlappe a wickid man doynge synne; and a iust man schal preise, and schal make ioye.
| בְּפֶ֤שַֽׁע אִ֣ישׁ רָ֣ע מֹוקֵ֑שׁ וְ֝צַדִּ֗יק יָר֥וּן וְשָׂמֵֽחַ׃ |
7 A iust man knowith the cause of pore men; an vnpitouse man knowith not kunnyng.
| יֹדֵ֣עַ צַ֭דִּיק דִּ֣ין דַּלִּ֑ים רָ֝שָׁ֗ע לֹא־יָבִ֥ין דָּֽעַת׃ |
8 Men ful of pestilence distryen a citee; but wise men turnen awei woodnesse.
| אַנְשֵׁ֣י לָ֭צֹון יָפִ֣יחוּ קִרְיָ֑ה וַ֝חֲכָמִ֗ים יָשִׁ֥יבוּ אָֽף׃ |
9 If a wijs man stryueth with a fool; whether he be wrooth, `ether he leiyith, he schal not fynde reste.
| אִֽישׁ־חָכָ֗ם נִ֭שְׁפָּט אֶת־אִ֣ישׁ אֱוִ֑יל וְרָגַ֥ז וְ֝שָׂחַ֗ק וְאֵ֣ין נָֽחַת׃ |
10 Menquelleris haten a simple man; but iust men seken his soule.
| אַנְשֵׁ֣י דָ֭מִים יִשְׂנְאוּ־תָ֑ם וִֽ֝ישָׁרִ֗ים יְבַקְשׁ֥וּ נַפְשֹֽׁו׃ |
11 A fool bringith forth al his spirit; a wise man dilaieth, and reserueth in to tyme comynge afterward.
| כָּל־ר֭וּחֹו יֹוצִ֣יא כְסִ֑יל וְ֝חָכָ֗ם בְּאָחֹ֥ור יְשַׁבְּחֶֽנָּה׃ |
12 A prince that herith wilfuli the wordis of a leesyng; schal haue alle mynystris vnfeithful.
| מֹ֭שֵׁל מַקְשִׁ֣יב עַל־דְּבַר־שָׁ֑קֶר כָּֽל־מְשָׁרְתָ֥יו רְשָׁעִֽים׃ |
13 A pore man and a leenere metten hem silf; the Lord is liytnere of euer ethir.
| רָ֤שׁ וְאִ֣ישׁ תְּכָכִ֣ים נִפְגָּ֑שׁוּ מֵ֤אִיר־עֵינֵ֖י שְׁנֵיהֶ֣ם יְהוֽ͏ָה׃ |
14 If a kyng demeth pore men in treuthe; his trone schal be maad stidfast with outen ende.
| מֶ֤לֶךְ שֹׁופֵ֣ט בֶּֽאֱמֶ֣ת דַּלִּ֑ים כִּ֝סְאֹ֗ו לָעַ֥ד יִכֹּֽון׃ |
15 A yerde and chastisyng schal yyue wisdom; but a child, which is left to his wille, schendith his modir.
| שֵׁ֣בֶט וְ֭תֹוכַחַת יִתֵּ֣ן חָכְמָ֑ה וְנַ֥עַר מְ֝שֻׁלָּ֗ח מֵבִ֥ישׁ אִמֹּֽו׃ |
16 Grete trespassis schulen be multiplied in the multipliyng of wickid men; and iust men schulen se the fallyngis of hem.
| בִּרְבֹ֣ות רְ֭שָׁעִים יִרְבֶּה־פָּ֑שַׁע וְ֝צַדִּיקִ֗ים בְּֽמַפַּלְתָּ֥ם יִרְאֽוּ׃ |
17 Teche thi sone, and he schal coumforte thee; and he schal yyue delicis to thi soule.
| יַסֵּ֣ר בִּ֭נְךָ וִֽינִיחֶ֑ךָ וְיִתֵּ֖ן מַעֲדַנִּ֣ים לְנַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃ פ |
18 Whanne prophesie faylith, the puple schal be distried; but he that kepith the lawe, is blessid.
| בְּאֵ֣ין חָ֭זֹון יִפָּ֣רַֽע עָ֑ם וְשֹׁמֵ֖ר תֹּורָ֣ה אַשְׁרֵֽהוּ׃ |
19 A seruaunt mai not be tauyt bi wordis; for he vndirstondith that that thou seist, and dispisith for to answere.
| בִּ֭דְבָרִים לֹא־יִוָּ֣סֶר עָ֑בֶד כִּֽי־יָ֝בִ֗ין וְאֵ֣ין מַעֲנֶֽה׃ |
20 Thou hast seyn a man swift to speke; foli schal be hopid more than his amendyng.
| חָזִ֗יתָ אִ֭ישׁ אָ֣ץ בִּדְבָרָ֑יו תִּקְוָ֖ה לִכְסִ֣יל מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃ |
21 He that nurschith his seruaunt delicatli fro childhod; schal fynde hym rebel aftirward.
| מְפַנֵּ֣ק מִנֹּ֣עַר עַבְדֹּ֑ו וְ֝אַחֲרִיתֹ֗ו יִהְיֶ֥ה מָנֹֽון׃ |
22 A wrathful man territh chidingis; and he that is liyt to haue indignacioun, schal be more enclynaunt to synnes.
| אִֽישׁ־אַ֭ף יְגָרֶ֣ה מָדֹ֑ון וּבַ֖עַל חֵמָ֣ה רַב־פָּֽשַׁע׃ |
23 Lownesse sueth a proude man; and glorie schal vp take a meke man of spirit.
| גַּאֲוַ֣ת אָ֭דָם תַּשְׁפִּילֶ֑נּוּ וּשְׁפַל־ר֝֗וּחַ יִתְמֹ֥ךְ כָּבֹֽוד׃ |
24 He that takith part with a theef, hatith his soule; he herith a man chargynge greetli, and schewith not.
| חֹולֵ֣ק עִם־גַּ֭נָּב שֹׂונֵ֣א נַפְשֹׁ֑ו אָלָ֥ה יִ֝שְׁמַ֗ע וְלֹ֣א יַגִּֽיד׃ |
25 He that dredith a man, schal falle soon; he that hopith in the Lord, shal be reisid.
| חֶרְדַּ֣ת אָ֭דָם יִתֵּ֣ן מֹוקֵ֑שׁ וּבֹוטֵ֖חַ בַּיהוָ֣ה יְשֻׂגָּֽב׃ |
26 Many men seken the face of the prince; and the doom of alle men schal go forth of the Lord.
| רַ֭בִּים מְבַקְשִׁ֣ים פְּנֵי־מֹושֵׁ֑ל וּ֝מֵיְהוָ֗ה מִשְׁפַּט־אִֽישׁ׃ |
27 Iust men han abhomynacioun of a wickid man; and wickid men han abhomynacioun of hem, that ben in a riytful weye. A sone kepynge a word, schal be out of perdicioun.
| תֹּועֲבַ֣ת צַ֭דִּיקִים אִ֣ישׁ עָ֑וֶל וְתֹועֲבַ֖ת רָשָׁ֣ע יְשַׁר־דָּֽרֶךְ׃ פ |
