Dagiti Proverbio 16
1 Dagiti panggep ti puso ket kukua ti makinpuso, ngem ti sungbat ni Yahweh ket agtaud iti mismo a dilana.
The designs of the heart are man's, but the answer of the tongue comes from the Lord.
2 Amin a wagas ti maysa a tao ket nadalus iti panagkitana, ngem timtimbangen ni Yahweh dagiti pangpanggepenna.
All a man's ways are clean to himself; but the Lord puts men's spirits into his scales.
3 Ikamangmo kenni Yahweh dagiti aramidmo, ket agballiginto dagiti panggepmo.
Put your works into the hands of the Lord, and your purposes will be made certain.
4 Inaramid ni Yahweh dagiti amin a banag para iti rumbeng a pakaaramatanda, uray dagiti nadangkes para iti aldaw ti riribuk.
The Lord has made everything for his purpose, even the sinner for the day of evil.
5 Kagurgura ni Yahweh ti amin nga addaan iti natangsit a puso, uray puotenyo, madusadanto.
Everyone who has pride in his heart is disgusting to the Lord: he will certainly not go free from punishment.
6 Babaen iti kinapudno ti tulag ken kinamatalek ket naakkoban ti kinamanagbasol, ken babaen iti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh ket matallikudan dagiti tattao ti panagar-aramidda iti dakes.
By mercy and good faith evil-doing is taken away: and by the fear of the Lord men are turned away from evil.
7 No dagiti wagas ti maysa a tao ket makaay-ayo kenni Yahweh, uray dagiti kabusor dayta a tao ket pagbalinen ni Yahweh a gayyemna.
When a man's ways are pleasing to the Lord, he makes even his haters be at peace with him.
8 Nasaysayaat ti addaan iti bassit nga addaan iti kinalinteg, ngem ti addaan iti dakkel a sapul babaen iti kinadakes.
Better is a little with righteousness, than great wealth with wrongdoing.
9 Agplanplano ti maysa a tao iti kaunggan ti pusona, ngem iturturong ni Yahweh dagiti addangna.
A man may make designs for his way, but the Lord is the guide of his steps.
10 Adda nadiosan a panggeddeng kadagiti bibig ti ari, saan nga agisawang ti ngiwatna iti makaallilaw a pangngeddeng.
Decision is in the lips of the king: his mouth will not go wrong in judging.
11 Aggapu kenni Yahweh dagiti napudno a pagtimbangan; isuna ti mangikedkeddeng iti dagsen dagiti adda iti supot.
True measures and scales are the Lord's: all the weights of the bag are his work.
12 Tunggal agaramid dagiti ari iti nadangkes a banbanag, dayta ket maysa a rumbeng a malais, ta naipasdek ti trono babaen iti panagaramid iti nalinteg.
Evil-doing is disgusting to kings: for the seat of the ruler is based on righteousness.
13 Maragragsakan ti maysa nga ari kadagiti bibig a mangibagbaga iti umno ken ay-ayatenna ti tao nga agsasao iti pudno.
Lips of righteousness are the delight of kings; and he who says what is upright is dear to him.
14 Ti pungtot ti maysa nga ari ket maiyarig a mensahero ti patay ngem padasen ti nasirib a tao a pagkalmaen isuna.
The wrath of the king is like those who give news of death, but a wise man will put peace in place of it.
15 Ti kinaraniag ti rupa ti ari ket biag, ken ti paraburna ket kasla ulep a mangiyeg iti tudo.
In the light of the king's face there is life; and his approval is like a cloud of spring rain.
16 Anian a nasaysayaat ti maaddaan iti kinasirib ngem iti maaddaan iti balitok. Rumbeng nga ad-adda a mapili ti maaddaan iti pannakaawat ngem iti maaddaan iti pirak.
How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! and to get knowledge is more to be desired than silver.
17 Arigna a ti dalan dagiti nalinteg a tattao ket adayo iti kinadakes; ti tao a mangsalsalaknib iti biagna ket arigna a banbantayanna ti dalanna.
The highway of the upright is to be turned away from evil: he who takes care of his way will keep his soul.
18 Umuna ti kinatangsit sakbay ti pannakadadael, ken umuna ti napalangguad nga espiritu sakbay ti pannakatinnag.
Pride goes before destruction, and a stiff spirit before a fall.
19 Nasaysayaat ti agbalin a napakumbaba a kadua dagiti napanglaw a tattao ngem ti makibingay kadagiti napalangguad a tattao kadagiti sinamsamda.
Better it is to have a gentle spirit with the poor, than to take part in the rewards of war with men of pride.
20 Makabirok iti nasayaat ti siasinoman a mang-utob kadagiti naisuro kadakuada, ken agragsak dagiti agtalek kenni Yahweh.
He who gives attention to the law of right will get good; and whoever puts his faith in the Lord is happy.
21 Ti tao a nasirib iti kaungganna ket makuna a nanakem, ken ti kinasam-it ti balikas pasayaatenna ti kabaelan a mangisuro.
The wise-hearted will be named men of good sense: and by pleasing words learning is increased.
22 Ti pannakaawat ket maiyarig a burayok ti biag ti tao nga addaan iti daytoy, ngem ti dusa dagiti maag ket ti kinamaagda.
Wisdom is a fountain of life to him who has it; but the punishment of the foolish is their foolish behaviour.
23 Ti puso ti nasirib a tao ket mangmangted iti saririt iti ngiwatna ken mangnaynayon iti panangallukoy dagiti bibigna.
The heart of the wise man is the teacher of his mouth, and gives increased learning to his lips.
24 Ti makaay-ayo a sasao ket maiyarig a balay ti ayukan—nasam-it iti kararua ken pannakapaimbag kadagiti tulang.
Pleasing words are like honey, sweet to the soul and new life to the bones.
25 Adda dalan a kasla nalinteg iti maysa a tao, ngem ti murdongna ket dalan nga agturong iti patay.
There is a way which seems straight before a man, but its end is the ways of death.
26 Ti ganas iti pannangan ti maysa a mangmangged ket mangparegta kenkuana nga agtrabaho; guyguyugoyen isuna ti bisinna nga agtultuloy nga agtrabaho.
The desire of the working man is working for him, for his need of food is driving him on.
27 Agkalkali iti dakes ti awan serserbina a tao, ken ti sasaona ket kasla makasinit nga apuy.
A good-for-nothing man is a designer of evil, and in his lips there is a burning fire.
28 Ti ballikug a tao ket rubrubanna ti riri, kasta met a pagsisinaen ti tsismis dagiti nasinged nga aggagayyem.
A man of twisted purposes is a cause of fighting everywhere: and he who says evil secretly makes trouble between friends.
29 Ul-ulbodan ti naranggas a tao ti kaarrubana ken iturturongna daytoy a pababa iti dalan a saan a nasayaat.
A violent man puts desire of evil into his neighbour's mind, and makes him go in a way which is not good.
30 Ti tao nga agkidda-kidday ket agpangpanggep iti dakes; dagiti mangikakaem iti bibigda ket agar-aramid iti dakes.
He whose eyes are shut is a man of twisted purposes, and he who keeps his lips shut tight makes evil come about.
31 Ti uban ket korona ti kinadayag; magun-od daytoy babaen iti panagbiag iti nalinteg a wagas.
The grey head is a crown of glory, if it is seen in the way of righteousness.
32 Nasaysayaat ti saan a nalaka a makaunget ngem ti agbalin a maingel, ken ti tao nga iturturayanna ti espirituna ket napigpigsa ngem iti tao a makababael a mangsakup iti maysa a siudad.
He who is slow to be angry is better than a man of war, and he who has control over his spirit than he who takes a town.
33 Maipuruak iti saklot dagiti bato a mangikeddeng iti gasat, ngem ti pangngeddeng ket aggapu kenni Yahweh.
A thing may be put to the decision of chance, but it comes about through the Lord.
