Dagiti Proverbio 22
1 Rumbeng a ti nasayaat a nagan ti pilien saan ket a tay adu a kinabaknang, ken nasaysayaat ti pabor ngem ti pirak ken balitok.
A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
2 Addaan kadagitoy dagiti nabaknang ken nakurapay a tattao - ni Yahweh ti nangaramid amin kadakuada.
The rich and poor meet together: Yhwh is the maker of them all.
3 Ti masirib a tao ket makitana ti riribuk ket iliklikna ti bagina, ngem sarakusuken daytoy dagiti tattao nga awan kapadasanna ket agsagabada gapu iti daytoy.
A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
4 Ti gunggona iti panagpakumbaba ken panagbuteng ken ni Yahweh ket kinabaknang, dayaw, ken biag.
By humility and the fear of Yhwh are riches, and honour, and life.
5 Adda sisiit ken silsilo iti dalan dagiti dakes; ti siasinoman a mangsaluad iti biagna ket maiyadayo kadagitoy.
Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.
6 Isurom ti ubing iti wagas a rumbeng a panagbiagna, ket inton dumakkel isuna, saanto isuna a sumiasi iti dayta a panursuro.
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
7 Iturayan dagiti nabaknang a tattao dagiti napanglaw, ken ti nakautang ket tagabu ti nagpautang.
The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
8 Ti agimula iti kinadangkes ket agapitto iti riribuk, ket awanton ti serserbi ti baot ti pungtotna.
He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail.
9 Mabendisionanto ti managparabur a tao, gapu ta ibingbingayanna iti tinapayna dagiti napanglaw.
He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.
10 Papanawem ti mananglais, ket mapukaw ti panagririri; sumardeng dagiti panagsusuppiat ken panangin-insulto.
Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, strife and reproach shall cease.
11 Ti mangayat iti nasin-aw a puso ken nasayaat ti panagsasaona, ket agbalinto a gayemna ti ari.
He that loveth pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend.
12 Kanayon a sipsiputan dagiti mata ni Yahweh ti pannakaammo, ngem daddadaelenna dagiti sasao dagiti mangliliput.
The eyes of Yhwh preserve knowledge, and he overthroweth the words of the transgressor.
13 Kuna ti sadut a tao, “Adda leon iti kalsada! Matayak la ketdi no rummuarak.”
The slothful man saith, There is a lion without, I shall be slain in the streets.
14 Ti ngiwat ti mannakikamalala a babai ket kasla nauneg nga abut; mapasgedan ti pungtot ni Yahweh iti siasinoman a matnag iti daytoy.
The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred of Yhwh shall fall therein.
15 Siguden nga adda kinamaag iti puso ti maysa nga ubing, ngem ikkaten daytoy ti baut ti panangisuro.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
16 Ti mangidaddadanes kadagiti nakurapay a tattao tapno umadu ti kinabaknangna, wenno ti mangmangted kadagiti nabaknang a tattao, ket pumanglawto.
He that oppresseth the poor to increase his riches, and he that giveth to the rich, shall surely come to want.
17 Ipangagmo ken denggem dagiti sasao dagiti masirib, ket imulam dita pusom ti pannakaammo nga isursurok,
Bow down thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thine heart unto my knowledge.
18 ta nasayaat para kenka no salimetmetam dagitoy iti kaunggam, no nakasagana amin dagitoy kadagiti bibigmo.
For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips.
19 Tapno ti panagtalekmo ket adda kenni Yahweh, isurok dagitoy ita kenka-uray pay kenka.
That thy trust may be in Yhwh, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee.
20 Saan kadi a nangisuratak para kenka iti tallopulo a bilbilin ken pannakaammo,
Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge,
21 a mangisuro kenka iti kinapudno nga adda kadagitoy a sasao, tapno makaitedka kadagiti nasayaat a sungbat kadagiti nangibaon kenka?
That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee?
22 Saanmo a takawan ti napanglaw a tao, gapu ta napanglaw isuna, wenno ibaddebaddek dagiti marigrigat nga adda iti ruangan,
Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate:
23 ta ninto Yahweh ti mangikalintegan iti kasoda, ket pukawennanto ti biag dagiti nagtakaw kadakuada.
For Yhwh will plead their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them.
24 Saanka a makigayyem iti tao nga iturturayan ti unget, ken saanka a makikuykuyog iti tao a managpungpungtot,
Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go:
25 amangan no masursuromton dagiti wagasna, ket saankaton a makalapsut iti silo.
Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.
26 Saanka nga agkari no maipapan iti kuarta, ken saanka a mangted iti pammaneknek iti utang ti sabali.
Be not thou one of them that strike hands, or of them that are sureties for debts.
27 No saankanto a makabayad, ania koma ngay ti makalapped iti tao a nagkariam inton alaenna ti katre a pagid-iddaam?
If thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
28 Saanmo nga ikkaten ti nagkakauna a mohon nga impasdek dagiti ammayo.
Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set.
29 Makakitaka ngata iti tao a nalaing iti trabahona? Iti sangoanan ngarud dagiti ar-ari ti pagtakderanna; saan nga iti sangoanan dagiti kadawyan a tattao.
Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.
