Pend-nesihetler 20
1 Sharab kishini reswa qilar, Haraq kishini ghaljirlashturar; Kimki uninggha bérilip ézip ketse, eqilsizdur.
It is a luxurious thing, wine, and inebriation is tumultuous. Anyone who is delighted by this will not be wise.
2 Padishahning ghezipi shirning hörkirishige oxshash qorqunchluqtur; Uning achchiqini keltürgen, öz jénigha jaza chüshürer.
Just like the roaring of a lion, so also is the dread of a king. Whoever provokes him sins in his own soul.

“It is bad, it is bad,” says every buyer; and when he has withdrawn, then he will boast.
15 Altun bar, leel-yaqutlarmu köptur; Biraq bilimni béghishlighan lewler némidégen qimmetlik göherdur!
There is gold, and there are a multitude of jewels. But lips of knowledge are a precious vessel.
16 Yatqa képil bolghan kishidin qerzge tonini tutup alghin; Yat xotun’gha kapalet bergen kishidin kapalet puli al.
Take away the vestments of him who stands up to vouch for a stranger, and take a pledge from him instead of from outsiders.
17 Aldap érishken tamaq tatliqtur; Kéyin, uning yégini shéghil bolar.
The bread of lies is sweet to a man. But afterwards, his mouth will be filled with pebbles.
18 Pilanlar meslihet bilen békitiler; Pishqan körsetme bilen jeng qilghin.
Plans are strengthened by counsels. And wars are to be handled by governments.
