World English Bible
1Ka capa, kang thuih ih lok to na tahngaih moe, kang paek ih loknawk palung thungah na pakuem nahaeloe,
1My son, if you will receive my words, and store up my commandments within you,
2palunghahaih bangah na naa to patuengh loe, panoekhaih bangah na palung to paek ah;
2so as to turn your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;
3ue, panoekhaih hnuk hanah na hangh, panoek thai hanah tha hoiah na hangh moe,
3yes, if you call out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding;
4sumkanglung pakrong baktiah na pakrong pacoengah, hawk ih hmuen baktiah na pakrong nahaeloe,
4if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures;
5Angraeng zithaih to na panoek ueloe, Sithaw palunghahaih to na hnu tih.
5then you will understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
6Angraeng mah palunghahaih to paek, palunghahaih hoi panoekhaih loe anih pakha hoiah ni tacawt.
6For the LORD gives wisdom. Out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
7Katoeng kaminawk hanah palughahaih to paek moe, toenghaih hoiah lamcaeh kaminawk hanah anih loe abuephaih ah oh.
7He lays up sound wisdom for the upright. He is a shield to those who walk in integrity,
8Katoeng kaminawk caehhaih loklam to anih mah toep moe, oepthok angmah ih kaminawk to pakaa.
8that he may guard the paths of justice, and preserve the way of his saints.
9To tiah ni toenghaih, katoengah lokcaekhaih, kangvan ah lok takroekhaih to na panoek ueloe, kahoih loklamnawk to na panoek tih.
9Then you will understand righteousness and justice, equity and every good path.
10Palunghahaih mah na palungthin to paongh naah, panoekhaih loe na pakhra anghoesakkung ah om tih.
10For wisdom will enter into your heart. Knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
11Panoekthaihaih mah na pakaa ueloe, na panoekhaih mah na toep tih;
11Discretion will watch over you. Understanding will keep you,
12palunghahaih mah loe toenghaih loklam amkhraeng taak kami, vinghaih thungah caeh kami, kahoih ai kami caehhaih loklam hoi katoengah lokthui ai kami ih ban thung hoiah pahlong tih;
12to deliver you from the way of evil, from the men who speak perverse things,
no verse 13 in this text
13who forsake the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness,
14hmuensae sakhaih bangah kanawm panoek moe, kasae kaminawk mah sak ih katoeng ai hmuen ah kanawm acaeng kami,
14who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the perverseness of evil,
15toenghaih loklam ah caeh ai, loklam kangkoih ah caeh kaminawk ban thung hoiah pahlong ueloe,
15who are crooked in their ways, and wayward in their paths,
16zaehaih sak koeh nongpata, kami zoek thaih nongpata khae hoiah doeh pahlong tih;
16to deliver you from the strange woman, even from the foreigner who flatters with her words,
17to baktih nongpata loe tangla nathuem ah thuitaekhaih lok to pahnawt moe, a Sithaw hmaa ah sak ih lokmaihaih pahnet ving kami ah oh.
17who forsakes the friend of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God;
18To nongpata ih im loe duekhaih bangah laemh tathuk moe, kadueh kami pakhranawk caehhaih loklam bangah a caeh.
18for her house leads down to death, her paths to the departed spirits.
19Anih khaeah caeh kaminawk boih loe, mi doeh amlaem o ai boeh, hinghaih loklam doeh hnu o ai.
19None who go to her return again, neither do they attain to the paths of life.
20Nang loe kahoih kaminawk ih loklam to pazui ah loe, katoeng kaminawk ih loklam ah caeh poe ah.
20Therefore walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
21Katoeng kami loe prae thungah khosah ueloe, coek koi om ai kami loe to prae thungah om poe tih,
21For the upright will dwell in the land. The perfect will remain in it.
22toe kasae kaminawk loe prae thungah om o thai mak ai, zaehaih sah kaminawk loe prae thung hoiah haek o ving tih.
22But the wicked will be cut off from the land. The treacherous will be rooted out of it.
