1The man that with a stiff neck despiseth him that reproveth him, shall suddenly be destroyed: and health shall not follow him.
1Thuitaek pacoengah doeh angmah ih tahnong amtaksak kami loe, hoih thai ai, amrohaih to tong roep tih.
2When just men increase, the people shall rejoice: when the wicked shall bear rule, the people shall mourn.
2Katoeng kami ukhaih kaa tawnh naah, kaminawk anghoe o; toe kahoih ai kami mah uk naah loe kaminawk palungset o.
3A man that loveth wisdom, rejoiceth his father: but he that maintaineth bar lots, shall squander away his substance.
3Palunghahaih koeh kami loe ampa to anghoesak; toe tangzat zaw nongpata hoi angkom kami loe a tawnh ih hmuen to pasaeng boih.
4A just king setteth up the land: a covetous man shall destroy it.
4Toenghaih hoiah prae uk siangpahrang loe prae to caksak; toe bokhaih tangqum paekhaih koeh kami loe a prae to amtimsak.
5A man that speaketh to his friend with flattering and dissembling words, spreadeth a net for his feet.
5A imtaeng pakoeh kami loe angmah aman hanah palok payang kami ah oh.
6A snare shall entangle the wicked man when he sinneth: and the just shall praise and rejoice.
6Kasae kami loe a zaehaih pongah amanh; toe katoeng kami loe anghoehaih hoiah laa to sak.
7The just taketh notice of the cause of the poor: the wicked is void of knowledge.
7Katoeng kami loe kamtangnawk hanah khopoek pae; toe kahoih ai kami loe tidoeh dawncang ai.
8Corrupt men bring a city to ruin: but wise men turn away wrath.
8Minawk khet patoek kami loe vangpui to hmai angqongsak; toe palungha kami loe palungphuihaih to dipsak.
9If a wise man contend with a fool, whether he be angry or laugh, he shall find no rest.
9Palungha hoi kamthu loe lam nawnto a caeh hoi naah, kamthu loe palungphuihaih hoiah maw, to tih ai boeh loe pahnuihaih hoiah maw om cadoeh, monghaih roe tawn mak ai.
10Bloodthirsty men hate the upright: but just men seek his soul.
10Minawk athii palong koeh kami loe katoeng kami to hnukma; toe katoeng kami loe minawk hinghaih to khet pae.
11A fool uttereth all his mind: a wise man deferreth, and keepeth it till afterwards.
11Kamthu loe a poekhaih to taphong boih; toe palungha kami loe atue pha ai karoek to angphat.
12A prince that gladly heareth lying words, hath all his servants wicked.
12Ukkung mah amsawnlok to tahngai nahaeloe, a toksah tamnanawk boih loe kasae kami ah ni oh o.
13The poor man and the creditor have met one another: the Lord is the enlightener of them both.
13Kamtang hoi aling thaih kami anghmonghaih loe hae tiah oh; Angraeng mah ni nihnik hanah mik aanghaih to paek hmaek.
14The king that judgeth the poor in truth, his throne shall be established for ever.
14Siangpahrang mah kamtang to toenghaih hoiah lokcaek nahaeloe, angmah ih angraeng tangkhang to cak poe tih.
15The rod and reproof give wisdom: but the child that is left to his own will bringeth his mother to shame.
15Thuitaekhaih cung mah palunghahaih to paek; toe prawt sut ih caa mah loe amno to ahmin setsak.
16When the wicked are multiplied, crimes shall be multiplied: but the just shall see their downfall.
16Kasae kami pung naah, zaehaih doeh pung; toe katoeng kami mah loe nihcae amtimhaih to hnuk.
17Instruct thy son, and he shall refresh thee, and shall give delight to thy soul.
17Na caa to thuitaek ah, to tih nahaeloe anih mah poek monghaih to na paek tih; ue, anih mah poeknawmhaih to na paek tih.
18When prophecy shall fail, the people shall be scattered abroad: but he that keepeth the law is blessed.
18Angzo han koi hmuen hnukhaih om ai ah loe kaminawk amro o; toe patuk ih lok pazui kami loe tahamhoih.
19A slave will not be corrected by words: because he understandeth what thou sayest, and will not answer.
19Tamna loe kahoih lok khue hoi thuitaek han om ai; anih loe lok to thaih, toe thai ai baktiah om tih.
20Hast thou seen a man hasty to speak? folly is rather to be looked for, than his amendment.
20Poek het ai ah karangah lok apae kami to na hnuk maw? To kami pongah loe kamthu to oepthoh kue.
21He that nourisheth his servant delicately from his childhood, afterwards shall find him stubborn.
21Tamna to nawkta nathuem hoiah kahoih ah khetzawn nahaeloe, hnukkhuem ah angmah ih caa ah angcoeng tih.
22A passionate man provoketh quarrels: and he that is easily stirred up to wrath, shall be more prone to sin.
22Palungphui thaih kami mah angzoehhaih to tacawtsak, poek amthueng kami loe zaehaih sak pop.
23Humiliation followeth the proud: and glory shall uphold the humble of spirit.
23Amoekhaih mah kami to krahsak tathuk tih; toe kami tlim ah khosakhaih loe pakoehhaih ah oh.
24He that is partaker with a thief, hateth his own soul: he heareth one putting him to his oath, and discovereth not.
24Kamqu hoi amyok kami loe a hinghaih to hnukma; anih mah kasae thuihaih lok to thaih, toe taphong han zit.
25He that feareth man, shall quickly fall: he that trusteth in the Lord, shall be set on high.
25Kami zithaih loe kami hanah patung ih dongh ah oh; toe Angraeng oep kami loe ngancuem tih.
26Many seek the face of the prince: but the judgment of every one cometh forth from the Lord.
26Kami paroeai mah ukkung koehhaih to pakrong o; toe kami loe Angraeng khae hoiah ni toenghaih to hnuk.
27The just abhor the wicked man: and the wicked loathe them that are in the right way. The son that keepeth the word, shall be free from destruction.
27Katoeng kami mah toeng ai kami to panuet; katoeng ai kami mah toenghaih hoi khosah kami to panuet toengh.
