پەندەکانی سلێمان 22
| ناوبانگی چاک لە دەوڵەمەندی گەورە خوازراوترە، ڕێزیش لە زێڕ و زیو باشترە. | 1 |
(Having a good reputation/Being honored by people) is better than having a lot of money; being well respected is better than having plenty of gold or silver [DOU].
| دەوڵەمەند و هەژار لەمەدا یەکدەگرنەوە، دروستکەری هەردووکیان یەزدانە. | 2 |
There is one thing that is true about both rich people and poor people: Yahweh is the one who created all of them.
| ژیر خراپە دەبینێت و خۆی دەشارێتەوە، بەڵام ساویلکە مل پێوەدەنێت و سزا دەدرێ. | 3 |
Those who have good sense realize [that there is something] dangerous ahead, and they avoid it; those who do not have good sense just keep going and later they will suffer because of doing that.
| پاداشتی بێفیزی و لەخواترسی دەوڵەمەندی و ڕێزداری و ژیانە. | 4 |
The reward that Yahweh gives to those who are humble and who revere him is that he causes them to be rich and honored and to live for a long time.
| چقڵ و تەڵە لە ڕێگای پیاوی خواردایە، بەڵام ئەوەی خۆی بپارێزێت لێی دوور دەکەوێتەوە. | 5 |
Because of the things that wicked people do, [they have difficulties/troubles] that will be like thorns and traps on the roads that they walk on [MET]; people who are careful/cautious will be able to stay away from those difficulties.
| منداڵ لەسەر ئەو ڕێگایە ڕابهێنە کە پێویستە بیگرێت، پیریش بێت لێی لا نادات. | 6 |
If you train/teach children to do what is right, all during their life they will act/behave in that manner.
| دەوڵەمەند بەسەر هەژاردا حوکم دەکات، قەرزاریش کۆیلەی خاوەن قەرزە. | 7 |
Rich people rule over poor people harshly, and those who borrow money become like slaves [MET] of the people who lend [money to them].
| ئەوەی ناڕەوایی بچێنێت دروێنەی خراپە دەکات، کوتەکی تووڕەییشی دەفەوتێت. | 8 |
[If you plant corn or rice, corn or rice will grow]; [similarly], if you act unjustly, you will have disasters [MET]; and if you try to harm/oppress people [because you are angry with them], you will not be able to harm them.
| ئەوەی چاوتێر بێت بەرەکەتدار دەبێت، چونکە لە نانی خۆی دەداتە هەژار. | 9 |
[God] will bless those who are generous [IDM], those who give some of their food to poor [people].
| گاڵتەجاڕ دەربکە، ناکۆکی دەڕوات، دووبەرەکی و ڕیسواییش نامێنێت. | 10 |
If you get rid of those who make fun of [everything that is good], there will no more arguing or quarreling or insulting [other people].
| ئەوەی حەزی لە دڵپاکی بێت و قسەی شیرین بێت، پاشا دەبێتە دۆستی. | 11 |
If you always act sincerely [IDM] and always speak kindly, the king will be your friend.
| چاوی یەزدان چاودێری زانیاری دەکات، بەڵام قسەی ناپاکان سەرەوژێر دەکات. | 12 |
Yahweh [SYN] (watches over/takes care of) [those who have] good understanding/sense, but he ruins the plans/affairs of those who always try to deceive others.
| تەمبەڵ دەڵێت: «شێرێک لە دەرەوەیە! ئەگەر بچمە گۆڕەپانەکان دەکوژرێم!» | 13 |
Lazy people [remain in their houses]; they say, “A lion might attack me if I go out into the street [to go to work]!”
| دەمی ژنی بەدڕەوشت چاڵێکی قووڵە، ئەوەی بەر تووڕەیی یەزدان بکەوێت دەکەوێتە ناوی. | 14 |
What (wives who commit adultery/immoral women) say [to men] [MTY] is [like] a deep pit [MET] [into which those men fall]; those with whom Yahweh is angry will fall into that pit.
| گێلی بە دڵی منداڵەوە گرێدراوە، بەڵام گۆچانی تەمبێکردن دووری دەخاتەوە لێی. | 15 |
Children [SYN] naturally do things that are foolish, but if you punish/spank them [PRS], they [will] (stop doing foolish things/learn to behave as they should).
| ئەوەی زۆرداری لە هەژار بکات بۆ ئەوەی بۆ خۆی زیاد بکات و ئەوەی بە دەوڵەمەند ببەخشێت، بێگومان هەردووکیان بەرەو نەبوونییە. | 16 |
Those who oppress poor [people] in order to become rich, and those who give [a bribe] to rich [people in order that the rich people will do a favor for them], will just lose their money.
| گوێ شل بکە و قسەی دانایان ببیستە، دڵت بدە زانیاری من، | 17 |
[Now] listen [MTY] to what wise [people] have said; think carefully about what I am teaching you.
| چونکە جوانە ئەگەر لە ناختدا هەڵیبگریت و تێکڕا لەسەر لێوەکانت بچەسپێن. | 18 |
It will be good to (keep these things in your minds/always remember them), because if you do that, you will be able to quote/recite them [to others].
| بۆ ئەوەی پشتبەستنت بە یەزدان بێت، ئەمڕۆ تۆ فێر دەکەم، بەڵێ تۆ. | 19 |
[I want you to] trust in Yahweh, and that is the reason that I am telling them to you, now.
| ئایا سی پەندم بۆ نەنووسیوی سەبارەت بە ڕاوێژ و زانیاری، | 20 |
I have written [RHQ] 30 (sayings/things that wise people have said) from which you will receive good advice and you will be able you to know [many good/useful things].
| بۆ ئەوەی دروستی قسەی ڕاستیت فێر بکەم، هەتا وەڵامە ڕاستییەکان بدەیتەوە ئەوانەی کە تۆیان ناردووە؟ | 21 |
From them, you will learn what is right and what is true, in order that you will be able to bring back a good report to those who sent you [to school] (OR, give a good answer [to those who ask you questions]).
| هەژار تاڵان مەکە لەبەر هەژارییەکەی و نەبوون وردوخاش مەکە لە دادگا، | 22 |
[It is easy to] rob poor [people] who are helpless [and cannot defend themselves, but] never [do that]; and do not oppress in court those who are needy/afflicted,
| چونکە یەزدان بەرگری لە کێشەکەیان دەکات و ئەوانەی تاڵانیان دەکەن گیانیان تاڵان دەکات. | 23 |
because Yahweh will speak to defend them, and he will punish those who steal things from others—by causing them to die.
| مەبە برادەری کەسی تووڕە، هاوڕێیەتی کەسی هەڵچوو مەکە، | 24 |
Do not become friends with those who often become angry, and do not associate with those who cannot control their temper/anger,
| نەوەک لە ڕێچکەی ئەوان ڕابێیت، خۆت تووشی تەڵە بکەیت. | 25 |
because you might start to act like they do and not be able to stop doing that.
| لەوانە مەبە کە تەوقە دەکەن، دەستەبەری قەرزی خەڵک مەکە. | 26 |
If someone borrows money, do not be one of those who promises to pay what that person owes he cannot pay it back,
| ئەگەر نەتبوو بیدەیتەوە، بۆچی نوێنەکەی ژێرت ببردرێت. | 27 |
because if you cannot pay it back, people will surely [RHQ] [come and] take away [everything you own], even your bed.
| سنووری کۆن مەگوازەوە، ئەوەی باوباپیرانت دایانناوە. | 28 |
Do not [steal some of your neighbors’ land by] removing the boundary lines/markers that your ancestors placed/set.
| ئایا ئەو کەسەت بینیوە بە دەستوبردە لە کارەکەی؟ لەبەردەم پاشاکان ڕادەوەستێت، نەک لەبەردەم خەڵکی بێ ناوبانگ. | 29 |
Know/Learn [RHQ] this about those who do their work very skillfully: They will quit working for ordinary people and will start working for kings [because the kings will want people like that to work for them].
