Pend-nesihetler 23
1 Katta erbab bilen hemdastixan bolsang, Aldingdiki kim ikenlikini obdan oylan.
WHEN thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what 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 meat.
4 Bay bolimen dep özüngni upratma; Özüngning zéhningni bu ishqa qaratma.
Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.
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 that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.
6 Ach közning nénini yéme, Uning ésil nazunémetlirini tama qilma;
Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats:
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 heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.
8 Yégen bir yutum taamnimu qusuwétisen, Uninggha qilghan chirayliq sözliringmu bikargha ketken bolidu.
The morsel which thou hast eaten shalt thou vomit up, and lose thy sweet words.
9 Exmeqqe yol körsitip salma, Chünki u eqil sözliringni közge ilmas.
Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.
10 Qedimde békitken yerning pasil tashlirini yötkime, Yétimlarning étizlirighimu ayagh basma;
Remove not the old 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 shall plead their cause with thee.
12 Nesihetke köngül qoy, Ilim-bilimlerge qulaq sal.
Apply thine 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.
Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell. (Sheol h7585)
15 I oghlum, dana bolsang, Méning qelbim qanche xush bolar idi!
My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
16 Aghzingda orunluq sözler bolsa, ich-ichimdin shadlinimen.
Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things.
17 Gunah sadir qilghuchilargha reshk qilma, Herdaim Perwerdigardin eyminishte turghin;
Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the Lord all the day long.
18 Shundaq qilghiningda jezmen köridighan yaxshi kününg bolidu, Arzu-ümiding bikargha ketmes.
For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.
19 I oghlum, sözümge qulaq sélip dana bol, Qelbingni [Xudaning] yoligha bashlighin.
Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thine 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 shall clothe a man 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; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.
24 Heqqaniy balining atisi chong xushalliq tapar; Dana oghulni tapqan atisi uningdin xursen bolar.
The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.
25 Ata-anangni söyündürüp, Séni tughqan anangni xush qil.
Thy father and thy mother shall be glad, and she that bare thee shall rejoice.
26 I oghlum, qelbingni manga tapshur; Közliringmu hayatliq yollirimgha tikilsun!
My son, give me thine 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 for a prey, and increaseth the transgressors 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 hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath 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 seek mixed wine.
31 Sharabning ajayib qizilliqigha, uning jamdiki julaliqigha, Kishining gélidin shundaq siliq ötkenlikige meptun bolup qalma!
Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright.
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 thine heart shall utter perverse things.
34 Xuddi déngiz-okyanlarda leylep qalghandek, Yelkenlik kémining moma yaghichi üstide yatqandek bolisen.
Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, or as he that lieth 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 stricken me, shalt thou say, and I was not sick; they have beaten me, and I felt it not: when shall I awake? I will seek it yet again.
