Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Palungha caa loe ampa thuitaekhaih lok to tahngaih; toe minawk padaeng thaih kami loe thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai ai.
1A wise son is instructed of his father; but a scorner heareth not rebuke.
2Kami loe angmah pahni ih athaih kahoih to caa tih; toe zaehaih sah kami loe athii palonghaih athaih to caa tih.
2A man shall eat good from the fruit of his mouth; but the desire of the faithless is violence.
3Pahni angsum kami loe a hinghaih cuem kami ah oh; pakha kawkah aang kami loe amro tih.
3He that guardeth his mouth keepeth his life; but for him that openeth wide his lips there shall be ruin.
4Thasae kami loe a koehhaih baktiah tidoeh tawn ai; thahoih kami loe a koehhaih to hak tih.
4The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing; but the soul of the diligent shall be abundantly gratified.
5Katoeng kami loe lok amlaihaih to hnukma; toe kasae kami loe panuet thoh moe, azathaih to ohsak.
5A righteous man hateth lying; but a wicked man behaveth vilely and shamefully.
6Loklam amkhraeng ai kami loe toenghaih mah toep; toe kahoih ai kami mah loe kami kazae to amtimsak.
6Righteousness guardeth him that is upright in the way; but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.
7Angraeng ah angsah, tidoeh tawn ai kami to oh moe, kamtang ah angsah, angraeng parai kami doeh oh.
7There is that pretendeth himself rich, yet hath nothing; there is that pretendeth himself poor, yet hath great wealth.
8Angraeng loe angraenghaih hoiah a hinghaih to akrang han oh; toe amtang kami loe thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai mak ai.
8The ransom of a man's life are his riches; but the poor heareth no threatening.
9Katoeng kami aanghaih loe anghoehaih ah oh; toe kasae kami ih hmaiim loe dueh ving tih.
9The light of the righteous rejoiceth; but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
10Amoekhaih mah angzoehhaih to tacawtsak; toe palungha kami loe acoe paekhaih lok to tahngaih.
10By pride cometh only contention; but with the well-advised is wisdom.
11Azom ah hak ih phoisa loe anghma zuep tih; toe toksak moe, patung ih phoisa loe pung aep tih.
11Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished; but he that gathereth little by little shall increase.
12Oephaih anghmat ving naah poekhaih angpho; toe koehhaih acung naah loe, hinghaih thingkung ah oh.
12Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; but desire fulfilled is a tree of life.
13Thuitaekhaih lok patoek kami loe amro tih; toe paek ih lok khingya kami loe tangqum to hnu tih.
13Whoso despiseth the word shall suffer thereby; but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.
14Palungha kami patukhaih lok loe, duekhaih thaang thung hoi loih hanah, hinghaih tuipuek ah oh.
14The teaching of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
15Kahoih panoekhaih tawn kami loe minawk hmaa ah mikhmai pan tih; toe kasae kami ih loklam loe rai.
15Good understanding giveth grace; but the way of the faithless is harsh.
16Palungha kami loe palunghahaih hoiah toksak; toe kamthu loe amthuhaih to amtuengsak.
16Every prudent man dealeth with forethought; but a fool unfoldeth folly.
17Kahoih ai laicaeh loe raihaih thungah amtim; toe oepthok laicaeh loe ngantuihaih ah oh.
17A wicked messenger falleth into evil; but a faithful ambassador is health.
18Thuitaekhaih tahngai ai kami loe amtanghaih hoi azathaih mah pha thui tih; toe thuitaekhaih lok tahngai kami loe pakoehaih to hnu tih.
18Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction; but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.
19Koeh acunghaih loe hing thung kawkruk maw khosak hoih! Toe kahoih ai hmuen caeh taakhaih loe amthu kaminawk hanah panuet thok hmuen ah oh.
19The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul; and it is an abomination to fools to depart from evil.
20Palungha hoi angkom kami loe palungha tih; toe kamthu hoi angkom kami loe amro tih.
20He that walketh with wise men shall be wise; but the companion of fools shall smart for it.
21Kazae kaminawk loe sethaih mah hnukah patom; toe katoeng kaminawk loe tahamhoihaih tangqum to hnu o tih.
21Evil pursueth sinners; but to the righteous good shall be repaid.
22Kahoih kami loe a caanawk ih caa patoeng hanah, qawk to caeh taak; toe kami zae loe katoeng kaminawk han ih ni hmuenmae to patung pae.
22A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children; and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the righteous.
23Amtang kami ih lawk loe cang hoih parai; toe anih to aling o pongah amro boih.
23Much food is in the tillage of the poor; but there is that is swept away by want of righteousness.
24Quiboeng patoh ai kami loe, a caa hnuma kami ah oh; toe caa palung kami loe, nawkta nathuem hoiah thuitaekhaih to tawnh.
24He that spareth his rod hateth his son; but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
25Katoeng kami loe a hing hanah buhcaak; toe kasae kami loe zok amthlam tih.
25The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his desire; but the belly of the wicked shall want.
