Palungha Lok 11
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Angraeng loe katoeng ai tahhaih to pahnuet; toe katoeng tahhaih nuiah loe anghoehaih tawnh.
1A deceitful balance is an abomination before the Lord: and a just weight is his will.
2Amoekhaih oh naah, azathaih to oh; toe minawk tlim ah khosah kami khaeah loe palunghahaih to oh.
2Where pride is, there also shall be reproach: but where humility is, there also is wisdom.
3Poektoeng kami loe toenghaih mah zaeh; toe poeksae kami loe poeksethaih mah amrosak tih.
3The simplicity of the just shall guide them: and the deceitfulness of the wicked shall destroy them.
4Sithaw palungphui naah angraenghaih mah na bomh mak ai; toe toenghaih mah loe duekhaih thung hoiah pahlong.
4Riches shall not profit in the day of revenge: but justice shall deliver from death.
5Coek koi om ai katoeng kami loe toenghaih mah loklam to hnuksak; toe kasae kami loe a sethaih mah amtimsak tik.
5The justice of the upright shall make his way prosperous: and the wicked man shall fall by his own wickedness.
6Katoeng kaminawk loe angmacae toenghaih mah nihcae to pahlong tih; toe sethaih sah kaminawk loe angmacae sethaih pongah aman o tih.
6The justice of the righteous shall deliver them: and the unjust shall be caught in their own snares.
7Kahoih ai kami duek naah, anih oephaih doeh anghma tih; poektoeng ai kaminawk ih oephaih loe anghmat.
7When the wicked man is dead, there shall be no hope any more: and the expectation of the solicitous shall perish.
8Katoeng kami to raihaih thung hoiah pahlong, anih zuengah kasae kami nuiah raihaih to phak.
8The just is delivered out of distress: and the wicked shall be given up for him.
9Angsah thaih kami loe pronghaih lok hoiah a imtaeng kami to amrosak; toe katoeng kami loe palunghahaih hoiah loi tih.
9The dissembler with his mouth deceiveth his friend: but the just shall be delivered by knowledge.
10Katoeng kami khosak hoih naah, vangpui to anghoe; kasae kami duek naah loe, anghoe hoi hanghaih lok to oh.
10When it goeth well with the just the city shall rejoice: and when the wicked perish there shall be praise.
11Katoeng kami tahamhoih naah, vangpui to pakoeh ah oh; toe kasae kami ih pakha mah loe vangpui to amrosak.
11By the blessing of the just the city shall be exalted: and by the mouth of the wicked it shall be overthrown.
12Palunghahaih tawn ai kami loe, a imtaeng kami to khet patoek; toe palunghahaih tawn kami loe a palai to ciipsak.
12He that despiseth his friend, is mean of heart: but the wise man will hold his peace.
13Lokpung kami loe tamqu hmuen to taphong; toe oepthok kami loe tamqu hmuen to angphat.
13He that walketh deceitfully, revealeth secrets: but he that is faithful, concealeth the thing committed to him by his friend.
14Zaehhoihaih om ai naah, prae kaminawk amro o; toe poekhaih paek thaih kami pop tawnh naah ngancuemhaih to oh.
14Where there is no governor, the people shall fall: but there is safety where there is much counsel.
15Angvin ih laiba pathok pae hanah lokkam kami loe poek angpho tih; toe to tiah lokkam ai kami loe mawnhaih tawn mak ai.
15He shall be afflicted with evil, that is surety for a stranger: but he that is aware of the snares, shall be secure.
16Tahmenhaih tawn nongpata loe khingzahaih to hak; toe thahoih nongpanawk loe angraeng o.
16A gracious woman shall find glory: and the strong shall have riches.
17Tahmenhaih tawn kami loe tangqum to hak; toe hmawsaeng kami loe a taksa raihaih paek kami ah ni oh.
17A merciful man doth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel casteth off even his own kindred.
18Kasae kami loe alinghaih atho to hnuk; toe toenghaih tuh kami loe amkhrai thai ai tangqum to hak.
18The wicked maketh an unsteady work: but to him that soweth justice, there is a faithful reward.
19Toenghaih loe hinghaih ah oh baktih toengah, sethaih hnukah patom kami loe a duekhaih ni patom.
19Clemency prepareth life: and the pursuing of evil things, death.
20Poek angkawn kami loe Angraeng mah panuet; toe toenghaih loklam pazui kami nuiah loe anghoehaih to tawnh.
20A perverse heart is abominable to the Lord: and his will is in them that walk sincerely.
21Kasae kaminawk loe nawnto amhong o cadoeh, danpaek ai ah om mak ai; toe katoeng kaminawk ih caa loe loihsak tih.
21Hand in hand the evil man shall not be innocent: but the seed of the just shall be saved.
22Khopoek thai ai kranghoih nongpata loe, ok tahmawh nui ih sui bantuek baktiah ni oh.
22A golden ring in a swine’s snout, a woman fair and foolish.
23Katoeng kami loe kahoih hmuen khue ni koeh; toe kasae kami ih oephaih loe palungphuihaih hae ni.
23The desire of the just is all good: the expectation of the wicked is indignation.
24Cangti haeh kami loe pop aep ah hak; angaihaih pong kamthlai ah patung kami loe amtang aep.
24Some distribute their own goods, and grow richer: others take away what is not their own, and are always in want.
25Kuuhoih kami loe angraeng; minawk han tuibawh kami loe, angmah doeh tuibawh ah om toeng tih.
25The soul which blesseth, shall be made fat: and he that inebriateth, shall be inebriated also himself.
26Cang zawh paawt kami loe, minawk mah kasae thui tih; toe cang zaw kami ih lu loe tahamhoihaih om tih.
26He that hideth up corn, shall be cursed among the people: but a blessing upon the head of them that sell.
27Kahoih hmuen pakrong kami loe hoihaih to hnuk; toe kahoih ai hmuen pakrong kami loe sethaih to hnu tih.
27Well doth he rise early who seeketh good things; but he that seeketh after evil things shall be oppressed by them.
28Angmah angraenghaih oep kami loe amtim tih; toe katoeng kami loe thingqam baktiah sai tih.
28He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the just shall spring up as a green leaf.
29Angmah imthung raihaih paek kami loe takhi to qawk ah toep tih; amthu loe palungha kami ih tamna ah om tih.
29He that troubleth his own house, shall inherit the winds: and the fool shall serve the wise.
30Hinghaih thingkung loe toenghaih thingthai ah oh; palungha kami loe minawk hinghaih to pazawk.
30The fruit of the just man is a tree of life: and he that gaineth souls, is wise.
31Khenah, katoeng kaminawk mataeng doeh long nuiah hnuk han koi atho to hnu o nahaeloe, Sithaw panoek ai kami hoi zaehaih sak koeh kaminawk cae loe kawkruk maw danpaekhaih atho to hnu o tih!
31If the just man receive in the earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner.
