Palungha Lok 15
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Loknaem mah palungphuihaih to dipsak; toe lokham mah loe palungphuihaih to tacawtsak.
1A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
2Palungha kami loe palai to katoeng ah patoh; toe kamthu ih pakha mah loe amthuhaih to tacawtsak.
2The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.
3Angraeng ih mik loe ahmuen kruekah oh moe, kasae kahoih to khet.
3The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.
4Kahoih lok kathui palai loe kami ngantuihaih ah oh; toe aling thaih palai loe poekhaih patangkhangsak.
4A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.
5Kamthu loe ampa thuitaekhaih to patoek; toe palungha kami loe thuitaekhaih lok to tahngaih.
5A fool despiseth his father’s instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent.
6Katoeng kami ih im ah loe hmuenmae oh mangh; toe kasae kami ih phoisa mah loe raihaih to tacawtsak.
6In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble.
7Palungha kami ih pahni mah palunghahaih to pungsak; toe kamthu ih palung ah loe palunghahaih to om ai.
7The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so.
8Kami zae angbawnhaih loe Angraeng mah panuet; toe katoeng kami lawkthuihaih mah Angraeng to anghoesak.
8The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD : but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
9Kasae kami ih loklam loe Angraeng mah panuet; toe toenghaih pakrong kaminawk loe anih mah palung.
9The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD : but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.
10Lam amkhraeng kaminawk loe thuitaekhaih to koeh o ai; toe thuitaekhaih hnuma kami loe dueh tih.
10Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die.
11Hell hoi amrohaih mataeng doeh Angraeng hmaa ah amtueng phaeng nahaeloe, kaminawk ih palung cae loe kawkruk maw amtueng aep tih?
11Hell and destruction are before the LORD : how much more then the hearts of the children of men?
12Minawk patoek kami loe thuitaek naah palungphui; palungha kami khaeah lokduenghaih to tawn mak ai.
12A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise.
13Palung anghoe naah mikhmai pan; toe palungset naah loe poekhaih patangkhang.
13A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
14Khopoek thaih palung mah loe palunghahaih to pakrong; toe kamthu ih pakha loe amthuhaih to zok ah amthlam.
14The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.
15Amtanghaih tlim ah khosah kaminawk ih aninawk loe sethaih hoiah koi; toe poeknawmhaih loe sak toepsoep ih buhraenghaih poih ah oh.
15All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.
16Dawnraihaih hoiah hmuenmae angraeng parai pongah loe, Angraeng zithaih hoiah hmuen zetta tawnh to hoih kue.
16Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith.
17Kathawk hruk maitaw to boh moe, anghnukmahaih ahmuen ah buhcaak pongah loe, amlunghaih kaom ahmuen ah aan hoiah buhcaak to hoih kue.
17Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
18Palungphuihaih mah ampraekhaih to tacawtsak; toe pauephaih tawn kami loe angzoehhaih to dipsak.
18A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
19Thasae kami ih loklam loe soekhring hoiah koi; toe katoeng kami caehhaih loklam loe manglaih lampui ah oh.
19The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain.
20Palungha capa mah ampa to anghoesak; toe kamthu loe amno to hnaphnae.
20A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother.
21Kamthu loe poekhaih tawn ai kami to kawnh haih; toe palungha kami loe katoengah lamcaeh.
21Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly.
22Poekhaih kahoih paek ih om ai ah loe sak atimhaih to amro; toe poekhaih kahoih paek kami pop naah sak atimhaih to cak.
22Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
23Kami loe lokduenghaih pathim naah anghoe; atue nathuem ah apaeh ih lok loe kawkruk maw hoih!
23A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it !
24Hell thung hoi loih hanah, palungha kami loe hinghaih loklam bangah caeh tahang.
24The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.
25Amoek kami ih im loe Angraeng mah phrae tih; toe lamhmai ih ramri loe caksak tih.
25The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow.
26Kasae kami poekhaih loe Angraeng mah panuet; toe poekciim kaminawk ih poekhaihnawk loe a kawnh pae.
26The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD : but the words of the pure are pleasant words.
27Kamthlai koeh hmoek kami imthung ah raihaih to phak; toe bokhaih tangqum hnuma kami loe hing tih.
27He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.
28Katoeng kami loe lok pathim hanah palung thung hoiah lok to khingh; toe kasae kami ih pakha loe loksae to pathaak.
28The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
29Kasae kami loe Angraeng mah amhoe taak; toe katoeng kaminawk ih lawkthuihaih lok loe anih mah tahngaih pae.
29The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
30Mikhmai panhaih mah palung anghoesak; kahoih tamthang mah huhong ngantuisak.
30The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat.
31Hinghaih paek thaih thuitaekhaih lok tahngai kami loe, palungha kaminawk ohhaih im ah om toeng tih.
31The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise.
32Thuitaekhaih lok tahngai ai kami loe a hinghaih patoek kami ah oh.
32He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding.
33Angraeng zithaih loe palungha amtuenghaih ih ni; kami tlim ah khosakhaih loe minawk mah pakoeh ih loklam ah oh.
33The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.
