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 preferable to abundant riches, and good grace, to silver and to gold.
2 Addaan kadagitoy dagiti nabaknang ken nakurapay a tattao - ni Yahweh ti nangaramid amin kadakuada.
The rich and poor meet together: the Lord is the maker 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.
The prudent 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.
The reward of humility [and] the fear of the Lord are riches and honor, and life.
5 Adda sisiit ken silsilo iti dalan dagiti dakes; ti siasinoman a mangsaluad iti biagna ket maiyadayo kadagitoy.
Thorns and snares are on the way of a perverse man: he that doth guard his soul will keep 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 the lad in accordance with his course: even when he groweth old, will he not depart from it.
7 Iturayan dagiti nabaknang a tattao dagiti napanglaw, ken ti nakautang ket tagabu ti nagpautang.
A rich man ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the man that lendeth.
8 Ti agimula iti kinadangkes ket agapitto iti riribuk, ket awanton ti serserbi ti baot ti pungtotna.
He that soweth injustice will reap wrong-doing; and the rod of God's wrath will not fail.
9 Mabendisionanto ti managparabur a tao, gapu ta ibingbingayanna iti tinapayna dagiti napanglaw.
A man of a benevolent eye will indeed 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.
Drive away the scorner, and strife will go off; and then will cease contention and dishonor.
11 Ti mangayat iti nasin-aw a puso ken nasayaat ti panagsasaona, ket agbalinto a gayemna ti ari.
He that loveth with a pure heart, and hath grace on his lips, will have the king as his friend.
12 Kanayon a sipsiputan dagiti mata ni Yahweh ti pannakaammo, ngem daddadaelenna dagiti sasao dagiti mangliliput.
The eyes of the Lord guard knowledge, and he overturneth the words of the treacherous.
13 Kuna ti sadut a tao, “Adda leon iti kalsada! Matayak la ketdi no rummuarak.”
The slothful saith, There is a lion without, in the midst of the streets shall I be murdered.
14 Ti ngiwat ti mannakikamalala a babai ket kasla nauneg nga abut; mapasgedan ti pungtot ni Yahweh iti siasinoman a matnag iti daytoy.
A deep pit is the mouth of adulterous women: he that hath obtained the indignation of the Lord will fall thereinto.
15 Siguden nga adda kinamaag iti puso ti maysa nga ubing, ngem ikkaten daytoy ti baut ti panangisuro.
When folly is bound fast to the heart of a lad, the rod of correction must remove 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, [must at length] give to the rich, and come only to want.
17 Ipangagmo ken denggem dagiti sasao dagiti masirib, ket imulam dita pusom ti pannakaammo nga isursurok,
Incline thy ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thy 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 thy bosom, if they be altogether firmly seated upon thy lips.
19 Tapno ti panagtalekmo ket adda kenni Yahweh, isurok dagitoy ita kenka-uray pay kenka.
That thy trust may be in the Lord, have I made them known to thee this day, yea, even to thee.
20 Saan kadi a nangisuratak para kenka iti tallopulo a bilbilin ken pannakaammo,
Have not I written for 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 rectitude, the sayings of truth; that thou mightest bring back answers of truth to those that send 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 crush the afflicted in the gate;
23 ta ninto Yahweh ti mangikalintegan iti kasoda, ket pukawennanto ti biag dagiti nagtakaw kadakuada.
For the Lord will plead their cause, and despoil the life of those that despoil them.
24 Saanka a makigayyem iti tao nga iturturayan ti unget, ken saanka a makikuykuyog iti tao a managpungpungtot,
Make no friendship with a man given to anger; and with a man of fury thou must have no intercourse:
25 amangan no masursuromton dagiti wagasna, ket saankaton a makalapsut iti silo.
Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare for thy own soul.
26 Saanka nga agkari no maipapan iti kuarta, ken saanka a mangted iti pammaneknek iti utang ti sabali.
Be not one of those that pledge their hand, or of those 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 have 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 established.
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 that is diligent in his work? before kings may he place himself: let him not place himself before obscure men.
