Thimo 28
1 Andũ arĩa aaganu moraga o na gũtarĩ mũndũ ũramathingata, no arĩa athingu momagĩrĩria ta mũrũũthi.
The wicked flee when none pursueth: but the righteous are bolde as a lyon.
2 Bũrũri ũngĩĩhia, nĩũgĩaga na aathani aingĩ, no mũndũ ũrĩ na ũtaũku na akagĩa na ũmenyo nĩatũmaga bũrũri ũkindĩrie.
For the transgression of the land there are many princes thereof: but by a man of vnderstanding and knowledge a realme likewise endureth long.
3 Mwathani ũrĩa ũhatagĩrĩria andũ arĩa athĩĩni ahaana ta mbura ya rũhuho ĩrĩa ĩtatigagia irio.
A poore man, if he oppresse the poore, is like a raging raine, that leaueth no foode.
4 Andũ arĩa matirikaga watho magaathagĩrĩria andũ arĩa aaganu, no arĩa marũmagia watho magianaga nao.
They that forsake the Law, prayse the wicked: but they that keepe the Law, set themselues against them.
5 Andũ arĩa ooru matiiguaga maũndũ ma kĩhooto, no arĩa marongoragia Jehova nĩmataũkagĩrwo nĩ mo biũ.
Wicked men vnderstand not iudgemnt: but they that seeke the Lord vnderstand all things.
6 Nĩ kaba mũndũ mũthĩĩni ũrĩa ũthiiaga na mĩthiĩre ĩtarĩ ũcuuke, gũkĩra gĩtonga gĩthiiaga na mĩthiĩre mĩogomu.
Better is the poore that walketh in his vprightnesse, then hee that peruerteth his wayes, though he be riche.
7 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrũmagia watho nĩ mwana ũrĩ na gũkũũrana, no mwana ũrĩa ũthiiaga na thiritũ ya arĩa akoroku aconorithagia ithe.
He that keepeth the Law, is a childe of vnderstanding: but hee that feedeth the gluttons, shameth his father.
8 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũingĩhagia ũtonga wake na ũndũ wa gũkombithia mbeeca na gwĩtia uumithio mũkĩru aũigagĩra mũndũ ũngĩ, ũrĩa ũkaiguĩra athĩĩni tha.
He that increaseth his riches by vsurie and interest, gathereth them for him that will be mercifull vnto the poore.
9 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũregaga kũigua watho, o na mahooya make nĩ kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi.
He that turneth away his eare from hearing the Law, euen his prayer shalbe abominable.
10 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩhĩtithia andũ arĩa arũngĩrĩru nĩguo magere njĩra ya ũũru, akaagũa mũtego-inĩ wake we mwene, no ũrĩa ũtarĩ ũcuuke, wega nĩguo ũgaatuĩka igai rĩake.
He that causeth the righteous to go astray by an euill way, shall fall into his owne pit, and the vpright shall inherite good things.
11 Mũndũ mũtongu no eyone taarĩ mũũgĩ maitho-inĩ make, no mũndũ mũthĩĩni ũrĩa ũũĩ gũkũũrana maũndũ amuonaga o ũrĩa atariĩ.
The riche man is wise in his owne conceite: but the poore that hath vnderstanding, can trie him.
12 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arĩa athingu maatoorania, nĩkũgĩaga na ndũhiũ nene; no rĩrĩa arĩa aaganu maatũũgĩra, andũ nĩ kwĩhitha mehithaga.
When righteous men reioyce, there is great glory: but when the wicked come vp, the man is tried.
13 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũhithaga mehia make ndagaacagĩra, no ũrĩa ũmoimbũraga na agatigana namo nĩaiguagĩrwo tha.
He that hideth his sinnes, shall not prosper: but he that confesseth, and forsaketh them, shall haue mercy.
14 Kũrathimwo nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩtigagĩra Jehova hĩndĩ ciothe, no ũrĩa ũmagia ngoro yake nĩkũgũa agũũaga thĩĩna-inĩ.
Blessed is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart, shall fall into euill.
15 Mũndũ mwaganu agĩatha andũ matarĩ na ũhoti, nĩ ta mũrũũthi ũkũrarama, kana nduba ĩgũticũka.
As a roaring lyon, and an hungry beare, so is a wicked ruler ouer the poore people.
16 Mũnene ũtarĩ na ũtaũku nĩahinyagĩrĩria andũ mũno, no mũndũ ũrĩa ũthũire uumithio ũtagĩrĩire nĩagakenera matukũ maingĩ ma muoyo wake.
A prince destitute of vnderstanding, is also a great oppressour: but hee that hateth couetousnes, shall prolong his dayes.
17 Mũndũ mũritũhĩre nĩ thakame ya mũndũ ooragĩte, egũtũũra ehithaga nginya gũkua gwake; mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ndakanamũteithĩrĩrie.
A man that doeth violence against the blood of a person, shall flee vnto the graue, and they shall not stay him.
18 Mũndũ ũrĩa mĩthiĩre yake ĩtarĩ ũcuuke aikaraga arĩ mũgitĩre, no mũndũ ũrĩa ũthiiaga na njĩra cia waganu akaagũa o rĩmwe, hubu!
He that walketh vprightly, shalbe saued: but he that is froward in his wayes, shall once fall.
19 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩmaga mũgũnda wake arĩĩkoragwo na irio nyingĩ, no ũrĩa ũhanyũkanagia na maũndũ hatarĩ arĩhũũnaga o thĩĩna.
He that tilleth his land, shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth the idle, shall be filled with pouertie.
20 Mũndũ mwĩhokeku arĩrathimagwo mũno, no ũrĩa wĩriragĩria kũhiũha gũtonga ndakaaga kũherithio.
A faythfull man shall abound in blessings, and he that maketh haste to be riche, shall not be innocent.
21 Gũtĩĩra mũndũ maũthĩ ti wega: no mũndũ no eke ũũru nĩ ũndũ wa kenyũ ka irio.
To haue respect of persons is not good: for that man will transgresse for a piece of bread.
22 Mũndũ mũkarĩ nĩeriragĩria mũno gũtonga, na ndooĩ atĩ etereirwo nĩ ũthĩĩni.
A man with a wicked eye hasteth to riches, and knoweth not, that pouertie shall come vpon him.
23 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrũithagia ũngĩ nĩagatuĩka wa kwendwo nĩwe thuutha-inĩ, gũkĩra mũndũ wa rũrĩmĩ rwa kwĩyendithĩrĩria.
He that rebuketh a man, shall finde more fauour at length, then he that flattereth with his tongue.
24 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũtunyaga ithe kana nyina kĩndũ kĩao, agacooka akoiga atĩrĩ, “Ti ũũru ndeka,” ũcio marĩ rũmwe na ũrĩa wanangaga.
Hee that robbeth his father and mother, and sayth, It is no transgression, is the companion of a man that destroyeth.
25 Mũndũ mũkoroku aarahũraga ngarari, no mũndũ wĩhokete Jehova nĩakagaacĩra.
He that is of a proude heart, stirreth vp strife: but he that trusteth in the Lord, shall be fatte.
26 Mũndũ ũrĩa wĩĩhokaga we mwene nĩ mũndũ mũkĩĩgu, no ũrĩa ũthiiaga na njĩra cia ũũgĩ aikaraga arĩ mũgitĩre.
Hee that trusteth in his owne heart, is a foole: but he that walketh in wisdome, shall be deliuered.
27 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũheaga athĩĩni ndarĩ kĩndũ akaaga, no mũndũ ũrĩa ũmahingagĩra maitho nĩarĩĩrumagwo kaingĩ.
He that giueth vnto the poore, shall not lacke: but he that hideth his eyes, shall haue many curses.
28 Rĩrĩa andũ arĩa aaganu maatuĩka a gwathana, andũ nĩ kwĩhitha mehithaga; no rĩrĩa arĩa aaganu mathira, arĩa athingu nĩmatheeremaga.
When the wicked rise vp, men hide them selues: but when they perish, ye righteous increase.
