10 Sa’ad da adali ya yi nasara, birnin kan yi farin ciki; sa’ad da mugu ya hallaka, akwai sowa ta farin ciki.
The whole town celebrates when good people are successful; they also shout for joy when the wicked die.
11 Ta wurin albarkar mai aikata gaskiya birni kan ƙasaita, amma ta wurin bakin mugu akan hallaka birnin.

You'll get into trouble if you guarantee a stranger's loans—you're far safer if you refuse to make such pledges.
16 Mace mai hankali na samu bangirma, amma azzalumai za su sami dukiya.
A gracious woman holds on to her honor just as ruthless men hold on to their wealth.
17 Mutumin kirki kan ribance kansa, amma mugu kan kawo wa kansa wahala.
If you're kind, you'll be rewarded; but if you're cruel, you'll hurt yourself.
18 Mugun mutum kan sami albashin ƙarya amma shi da ya shuka adalci zai girbe lada tabbatacce.
The wicked earn wages that cheat them, but those who sow goodness reap a genuine reward.

A beautiful woman who lacks good judgment is like a gold ring in a pig's snout.
23 Sha’awar adalai kan ƙare kawai a aikata alheri, amma sa zuciyar mugaye kan ƙarasa kawai a fushi.
Good people want what's best, but what the wicked hope for ends in death.
24 Wani mutum kan bayar hannu sake, duk da haka yakan sami fiye; wani yakan riƙe abin da ba nasa ba, amma sai ya ƙarasa cikin talauci.
If you give generously you receive more, but if you keep back what you should give, you end up poor.
25 Mutum mai kyauta zai azurta; shi da yakan taimake waɗansu, za a taimake shi.
If you're generous, you'll become rich; give someone a drink of water, and you'll be given one in return.

If you trust in your riches, you'll fall; but if you do good, you'll flourish like green leaves.
29 Duk wanda ya kawo wahala wa iyalinsa zai gāji iska kawai, kuma wawa zai zama bawan masu hikima.
If you cause trouble in your family, you'll inherit nothing but air. Stupid people end up as servants to those who think wisely.
30 ’Ya’yan itacen adali itacen rai ne, kuma duk mai samun rayuka mai hikima ne.
The fruit of the good is a tree of life, and the wise person saves people.
31 In masu adalci sun sami abin da ya dace da su a duniya, yaya zai zama ga marasa sanin Allah da kuma masu zunubi!
If the good are repaid here on earth, how much more will the wicked who sin be repaid!
