< Pend-nesihetler 23 >
1 Katta erbab bilen hemdastixan bolsang, Aldingdiki kim ikenlikini obdan oylan.
When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider well who is before thee;
2 Ishtiying yaman bolsa, Gélinggha pichaq tenglep turghandek özüngni tart.
and put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite.
3 Uning nazunémetlirini tama qilma, Ular adem aldaydighan tamaqlardur.
Be not desirous of his dainties; for they are deceitful food.
4 Bay bolimen dep özüngni upratma; Özüngning zéhningni bu ishqa qaratma.
Weary not thyself to become rich; cease from thine own intelligence:
5 [Bayliqlargha] köz tikishing bilenla, ular yoq bolidu; Pul-mal derweqe özige qanat yasap, Xuddi bürküttek asman’gha uchup kéter.
wilt thou set thine eyes upon it, it is gone; for indeed it maketh itself wings and it flieth away as an eagle towards the heavens.
6 Ach közning nénini yéme, Uning ésil nazunémetlirini tama qilma;
Eat thou not the food of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainties.
7 Chünki uning köngli qandaq bolghandek, özimu shundaq. U aghzida: — Qéni, alsila, ichsile! — désimu, Biraq könglide séni oylighini yoq.
For as he thinketh in his soul, so is he. Eat and drink! will he say unto thee; but his heart is not with thee.
8 Yégen bir yutum taamnimu qusuwétisen, Uninggha qilghan chirayliq sözliringmu bikargha ketken bolidu.
Thy morsel which thou hast eaten must thou vomit up, and thou wilt have wasted thy sweet words.
9 Exmeqqe yol körsitip salma, Chünki u eqil sözliringni közge ilmas.
Speak not in the ears of a foolish [man], for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.
10 Qedimde békitken yerning pasil tashlirini yötkime, Yétimlarning étizlirighimu ayagh basma;
Remove not the ancient landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless:
11 Chünki ularning Hemjemet-Qutquzghuchisi intayin küchlüktur; U Özi ular üchün üstüngdin dewa qilar.
for their redeemer is mighty; he will plead their cause against thee.
12 Nesihetke köngül qoy, Ilim-bilimlerge qulaq sal.
Apply thy heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.
13 Balanggha terbiye bérishtin érinme; Eger tayaq bilen ursang, u ölüp ketmeydu;
Withhold not correction from the child; for [if] thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die:
14 Sen uni tayaq bilen ursang, Belkim uni tehtisaradin qutquziwalisen. (Sheol )
thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from Sheol. (Sheol )
15 I oghlum, dana bolsang, Méning qelbim qanche xush bolar idi!
My son, if thy heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine;
16 Aghzingda orunluq sözler bolsa, ich-ichimdin shadlinimen.
and my reins shall exult, when thy lips speak right things.
17 Gunah sadir qilghuchilargha reshk qilma, Herdaim Perwerdigardin eyminishte turghin;
Let not thy heart envy sinners, but [be thou] in the fear of Jehovah all the day;
18 Shundaq qilghiningda jezmen köridighan yaxshi kününg bolidu, Arzu-ümiding bikargha ketmes.
for surely there is a result, and thine expectation shall not be cut off.
19 I oghlum, sözümge qulaq sélip dana bol, Qelbingni [Xudaning] yoligha bashlighin.
Thou, my son, hear and be wise, and direct thy heart in the way.
20 Meyxorlargha arilashma, Nepsi yaman göshxorlar bilen bardi-keldi qilma;
Be not among winebibbers, among riotous eaters of flesh.
21 Chünki haraqkesh bilen nepsi yaman axirida yoqsulluqta qalar, Gheplet uyqusigha patqanlargha jende kiyimni kiygüzer.
For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty; and drowsiness clotheth with rags.
22 Séni tapqan atangning sözini angla, Anang qérighanda uninggha hörmetsizlik qilma.
Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old.
23 Heqiqetni sétiwal, Uni hergiz sétiwetme. Danaliq, terbiye we yorutulushnimu al.
Buy the truth, and sell it not; wisdom, and instruction, and intelligence.
24 Heqqaniy balining atisi chong xushalliq tapar; Dana oghulni tapqan atisi uningdin xursen bolar.
The father of a righteous [man] shall greatly rejoice, and he that begetteth a wise [son] shall have joy of him:
25 Ata-anangni söyündürüp, Séni tughqan anangni xush qil.
let thy father and thy mother have joy, and let her that bore thee rejoice.
26 I oghlum, qelbingni manga tapshur; Közliringmu hayatliq yollirimgha tikilsun!
My son, give me thy heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.
27 Chünki pahishe ayal chongqur oridur, Buzuq yat ayal tar zindandur;
For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit.
28 Ular qaraqchidek möküwélip, Insaniyet arisidiki wapasizlarni köpeyter.
She also lieth in wait as a robber, and increaseth the treacherous among men.
29 Kimde azab bar? Kimde derd-elem? Kim jédel ichide qalar? Kim nale-peryad kötürer? Kim sewebsiz yarilinar? Kimning közi qizirip kéter?
Who hath woe? Who hath sorrow? Who contentions? Who complaining? Who wounds without cause? Who redness of eyes?
30 Del sharab üstide uzun olturghan, Ebjesh sharabtin tétishqa aldirighan meyxorlar!
— They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to try mixed wine.
31 Sharabning ajayib qizilliqigha, uning jamdiki julaliqigha, Kishining gélidin shundaq siliq ötkenlikige meptun bolup qalma!
Look not upon the wine when it is red, when it sparkleth in the cup, and goeth down smoothly:
32 Axirida u zeherlik yilandek chéqiwalidu, Oq yilandek neshtirini sanjiydu.
at the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder.
33 Köz aldingda ghelite menziriler körünidu, Aghzingdin qalaymiqan sözler chiqidu.
Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thy heart shall speak froward things;
34 Xuddi déngiz-okyanlarda leylep qalghandek, Yelkenlik kémining moma yaghichi üstide yatqandek bolisen.
and thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, and as he that lieth down upon the top of a mast:
35 Sen choqum: — Birsi méni urdi, lékin men yarilanmidim! Birsi méni tayaq bilen urdi, biraq aghriqini sezmidim!» — deysen. Biraq sen yene: «Hoshumgha kelsemla, men yenila sharabni izdeymen! — deysen.
— “They have smitten me, [and] I am not sore; they have beaten me, [and] I knew it not. When shall I awake? I will seek it yet again.”
