സദൃശവാക്യങ്ങൾ 9
Wisdom has built her house, She has hewn out her pillars—seven.
She has slaughtered her slaughter, She has mingled her wine, Indeed, she has arranged her table.
She has sent forth her girls, She cries on the tops of the high places of the city:
“Who [is] simple? Let him turn aside here.” Whoever lacks heart: she has said to him,
“Come, eat of my bread, And drink of the wine I have mingled.
Forsake the simple and live, And be blessed in the way of understanding.”
The instructor of a scorner Is receiving for it—shame, And a reprover of the wicked—his blemish.
8 ൮ പരിഹാസി നിന്നെ പകക്കാതിരിക്കേണ്ടതിന് അവനെ ശാസിക്കരുത്; ജ്ഞാനിയെ ശാസിക്കുക; അവൻ നിന്നെ സ്നേഹിക്കും.
Do not reprove a scorner, lest he hate you, Give reproof to the wise, and he loves you.
9 ൯ ജ്ഞാനിയെ പ്രബോധിപ്പിക്കുക, അവന്റെ ജ്ഞാനം വർദ്ധിക്കും; നീതിമാനെ ഉപദേശിക്കുക, അവൻ വിദ്യാഭിവൃദ്ധി പ്രാപിക്കും.
Give to the wise, and he is wiser still, Make known to the righteous, And he increases learning.
The commencement of wisdom [is] the fear of YHWH, And a knowledge of the Holy Ones [is] understanding.
For by me your days multiply, And years of life are added to you.
12 ൧൨ നീ ജ്ഞാനിയാകുന്നുവെങ്കിൽ നിനക്കുവേണ്ടി തന്നെ ജ്ഞാനിയായിരിക്കും; പരിഹസിക്കുന്നു എങ്കിലോ, നീ തന്നെ സഹിക്കേണ്ടിവരും”.
If you have been wise, you have been wise for yourself, And you have scorned—you bear [it] alone.
A foolish woman [is] noisy, Simple, and has not known what.
And she has sat at the opening of her house, On a throne—the high places of the city,
To call to those passing by the way, Who are going straight [on] their paths.
“Who [is] simple? Let him turn aside here.” And whoever lacks heart—she said to him,
“Stolen waters are sweet, And hidden bread is pleasant.”
