1Thuituennah aka lungnah loh mingnah khaw a lungnah tih, toelthamnah aka hmuhuet tah a kotalh.
1Whoso loveth knowledge loveth correction; but he that is brutish hateth reproof.
2Hlang then loh BOEIPA taengkah kolonah a dang tih, tangkhuepnah aka khueh hlang tah a poehlip sak.
2A good man shall obtain favour of the LORD; but a man of wicked devices will He condemn.
3Halangnah lamloh hlang cikngae pawt tih, aka dueng kah a yung tah a tuen sak moenih.
3A man shall not be established by wickedness; but the root of the righteous shall never be moved.
4Tatthai nu tah a boei kah rhuisam la om, tedae yah aka bai tah a rhuh khuiah keet la om.
4A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband; but she that doeth shamefully is as rottenness in his bones.
5Aka dueng tah kopoek tiktam tih, halang kah a niing tah thailatnah la poeh.
5The thoughts of the righteous are right; but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.
6Halang rhoek kah olka loh thii a rhongngol tih, aka thuem kah a ka loh hlang a huul.
6The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood; but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.

8A man shall be commended according to his intelligence; but he that is of a distorted understanding shall be despised.
9Rhaidaeng mai cakhaw a taengah sal aka khueh tah, thangpom uh tih caak aka nai lakah then.
9Better is he that is lightly esteemed, and hath a servant, than he that playeth the man of rank, and lacketh bread.
10Aka dueng long tah a rhamsa kah a hinglu te a ming dae, halang kah haidamnah tah muenying muenyang la om.
10A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast; but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
11Amah khohmuen aka tawn loh buh a cung sak tih, a lungbuei aka talh long tah a hoenghoep te a hloem.
11He that tilleth his ground shall have plenty of bread; but he that followeth after vain things is void of understanding.
12Boethae rhoek kah tluum te halang loh a nai dae, aka dueng rhoek kah a yung tah cuen yoeyah.
12The wicked desireth the prey of evil men; but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.
13Hmuilai kah boekoek dongah boethae kah hlaeh om dae, aka dueng tah citcai lamloh loeih.
13In the transgression of the lips is a snare to the evil man; but the righteous cometh out of trouble.
14Hlang kah lai thaih loh hnothen a cung sak tih, hlang kut neh a tiing la amah taengah a mael rhoe, a mael pah.
14A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth, and the doings of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.
15Aka ang kah longpuei tah a mikhmuh ah thuem dae, aka cueih kah cilsuep te ni a hnatun.
15The way of a fool is straight in his own eyes; but he that is wise hearkeneth unto counsel.
16Aka ang loh khothaih ah a konoinah te a phoe dae, aka thaai loh yah koi te a dah.
16A fool's vexation is presently known; but a prudent man concealeth shame.
17Uepomnah aka sat loh duengnah a thui tih, a honghi kah laipai tah hlangthai palat ni.
17He that breatheth forth truth uttereth righteousness; but a false witness deceit.
18cunghang kah tingtoehnah bangla aka cal buengrhuet khaw om dae, aka cueih kah a lai tah hoeihnah la om.
18There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword; but the tongue of the wise is health.
19Oltak kah hmuilai tah a yoeyah la cikngae tih, a honghi ol cat ka paa sak.
19The lip of truth shall be established for ever; but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
20Hlangthai palat loh a lungbuei khuikah boethae te a uep tih, rhoepnah ham aka uen loh kohoenah a dang.
20Deceit is in the heart of them that devise evil; but to the counsellors of peace is joy.
21Aka dueng te boethae pakhat long khaw a cuhu thil moenih. Tedae halang rhoek tah boethae neh baetawt uh.
21There shall no mischief befall the righteous; but the wicked are filled with evil.

24The hand of the diligent shall bear rule; but the slothful shall be under tribute.
25Lungbuei kah mawnnah loh hlang a bungkawn tih, ol then loh ko a hoe sak.
25Care in the heart of a man boweth it down; but a good word maketh it glad.
26Aka dueng long tah a hui te a tlap tih, halang rhoek kah longpuei tah amamih te kho a hmang puei.
26The righteous is guided by his friend; but the way of the wicked leadeth them astray.
27Palyal loh a sakah pataeng a kaeh moenih, tedae hlang haam kah a boeirhaeng tah a phu tlo.
27The slothful man shall not hunt his prey; but the precious substance of men is to be diligent.
28Duengnah caehlong ah hingnah om tih, a hawn longpuei khaw dueknah moenih.
28In the way of righteousness is life, and in the pathway thereof there is no death.
