Palungha Lok 9
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Palunghahaih mah im tung sarihto a aah moe, ohhaih im to a sak;
1Wisdom hath built herself a house, she hath hewn her out seven pillars.
2angmah pacah ih moinawk to a boh; misurtui to a lawn moe, caboi to pahnut.
2She hath slain her victims, mingled her wine, and set forth her table.
3A tok sahkung tanglanawk to patoeh moe, vangpui kasang koek ahmuen ah angdoet pacoengah, a hangh.
3She hath sent her maids to invite to the tower, and to the walls of the city:
4Poekhaih tawn kaminawk haeah angzo oh; khokhan thai ai kaminawk anih khaeah angzo oh, tiah a kawk,
4Whosoever is a little one, let him come to me. And to the unwise she said:
5angzo oh, kai ih takaw hae caa oh loe, ka lawn tangcae misurtui hae nae oh.
5Come, eat my bread, and drink the wine which I have mingled for you.
6Na hing hanah, khosak amthuhaih to caeh taak ah loe, palunghahaih loklam to pazui ah.
6Forsake childishness, and live, and walk by the ways of prudence.
7Kami tiah doeh sah ai kami thuitaekung loe azathaih to tongh moe, kahoih ai kami thuitaekkung doeh kasae thuihaih to tong lat.
7He that teacheth a scorner, doth an injury to himself: and he that rebuketh a wicked man, getteth himself a blot.
8Kami pahnui thuih kami to zoeh hmah, na hnuma lat tih; palungha kami to na zoeh nahaeloe, na palung tih.
8Rebuke not a scorner lest he hate thee. Rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
9Palungha kami na thuitaek nahaeloe, palungha aep tih; katoeng kami to na patuk nahaeloe, anih amtukhaih to sang aep tih.
9Give an occasion to a wise man, and wisdom shall be added to him. Teach a just man, and he shall make haste to receive it.
10Angraeng zithaih loe palungha amtonghaih takung pui ah oh; ciimcai Sithaw panoekhaih loe palunghahaih ah oh.
10The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is prudence.
11Kai rang hoiah na hinglung sawk ueloe, na hinghaih saning to pop tih.
11For by me shall thy days be multiplied, and years of life shall be added to thee.
12Palung na ha nahaeloe palunghahaih atho to na hnu tih; toe minawk khet na patoek nahaeloe, nangmah na zok tih.
12If thou be wise, thou shalt be so to thyself: and if a scorner, thou alone shalt bear the evil.
13Amthu nongpata ih lok loe ham; anih loe poekhaih tawn ai moe, panoekhaih tidoeh tawn ai.
13A foolish woman and clamorous, and full of allurements, and knowing nothing at all,
14Anih loe angmah im thok taengah anghnut moe, vangpui kasang koek ahmuen ah anghnut,
14Sat at the door of her house, upon a seat, in a high place of the city,
15katoeng loklam caeh kaminawk to a kawk;
15To call them that pass by the way, and go on their journey:
16poekhaih tawn ai kaminawk khaeah athung bangah angzo oh, tiah a naa; khokhan thai ai kaminawk khaeah loe,
16He that is a little one, let him turn to me. And to the fool she said:
17paquk ih tui loe luep, tamquta hoi caak ih takaw loe khraem, tiah a naa.
17Stolen waters are sweeter, and hid den bread is more pleasant.
18Toe to ahmuen ah loe duekhaih to oh, nongpata mah kawk ih kaminawk loe duekhaih hell thungah ni oh o, tiah nongpa mah panoek ai. p
18And he did not know that giants are there, and that her guests are in the depths of hell.
