1Manghai Lemuel kah olka olrhuh. He nen ni amah khaw a manu loh a toel.
1These are the words of King Lemuel—the burden that his mother taught him:
2Ka ca me tlam lae? Ka bungko lamkah ka capa me tlam lae? Ka olcaeng dong lamkah ka capa me tlam lae?
2What shall I say, O my son? What, O son of my womb? What, O son of my vows?
3Na thadueng te huta pum dongah pae tarha boeh, na longpuei te manghai rhoek aka khoe ham ni te.
3Do not spend your strength on women or your vigor on those who ruin kings.
4Manghai Lemuel ham bueng moenih. Manghai rhoek loh misurtui a ok ham moenih. Boeica rhoek long khaw yu a tuep ham moenih.
4It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, or for rulers to crave strong drink,
5A ok tih a taem te a hnilh atah, phacip phabaem ca boeih kah dumlai te talh ve.
5lest they drink and forget what is decreed, depriving all the oppressed of justice.
6Yu te aka milh taengah, misur te a hinglu aka khahing taengah pae uh.
6Give strong drink to one who is perishing, and wine to the bitter in soul.
7O saeh lamtah a khodaeng te hnilh saeh. A thakthaenah khaw koep poek boel saeh.
7Let him drink and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
8Olmueh ham khaw, cadah cadum ca boeih kah dumlai ham khaw na ka te ong pah.
8Open your mouth for those with no voice, for the cause of all the dispossessed.
9Na ka te ong lamtah duengnah neh laitloek pah. Mangdaeng neh khodaeng te khaw tang sak lah.
9Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the cause of the poor and needy.
10Tatthai nu he unim aka hmu? Lungvang lakah a phu khaw kuel.
10A wife of noble character, who can find? She is far more precious than rubies.
11A boei kah lungbuei khaw anih dongah pangtung tih, kutbuem khaw vaitah pawh.
11The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he lacks nothing of value.
12A boei te hnothen neh a thuung tih, a hing tue khuiah boethae om pawh.
12She brings him good and not harm all the days of her life.
13Tumul neh hlamik a tlap tih a kut naep la a saii.
13She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
14thimpom sangpho bangla om tih, amah caak khaw khohla bangsang lamkah hang khuen.
14She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.
15Khoyin ah thoo tih a imkhui ham maeh, a tanu rhoek ham hma a taeng pah.
15She rises while it is still night to provide food for her household and portions for her maidservants.
16Khohmuen te a mangtaeng tih, amah kutci neh a lai. Misur khaw a tue rhoe la a tue coeng.
16She appraises a field and buys it; from her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17A cinghen te sarhi neh a yen tih, a bantha khaw a huel.
17She girds herself with strength and shows that her arms are strong.
18A thenpom kah a then te a ten tih, khoyin, khoyin ah a hmaithoi khaw thi tlaih pawh.
18She sees that her gain is good, and her lamp is not extinguished at night.
19Cunghmui te a kut a yueng thil tih, a kutbom neh tahcap a cap.
19She stretches out her hands to the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20A kutpha loh mangdaeng a koihlawm tih, a kut te khodaeng hamla a yueng pah.
20She opens her arms to the poor and reaches out her hands to the needy.
21A imkhui boeih loh pueinak a lingdik neh a om dongah, vuel tue ah khaw, a imkhui ham rhih voel pawh.
21When it snows, she has no fear for her household, for they are all clothed in scarlet.
22Hniphaih te amah ham a tah tih, a hnitang neh daidi pueinak khaw om.
22She makes coverings for her bed; her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23A boei te vongka ah a ming uh tih, khohmuen kah a ham rhoek taengah a ngol sak.
23Her husband is known at the city gate, where he sits among the elders of the land.
24Hni a tah te a yoih tih, lamko te Kanaan taengah a thak.
24She makes linen garments and sells them; she delivers sashes to the merchants.
25Sarhi neh rhuepomnah te a pueinak nah tih, hmailong khohnin ah cupcup nuei.
25Strength and honor are her clothing, and she can laugh at the days to come.
26A ka te cueihnah neh a ang tih, a lai dongah sitlohnah olkhueng om.
26She opens her mouth with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27A imkhui ah rhoilaeng khaw a pai tih, thangak buh khaw ca pawh.
27She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28A ca rhoek loh a thoh hang neh anih te a uem uh tih, a boei long khaw anih te a thangthen bal.
28Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband praises her as well:
29Huta rhoek loh tatthai la muep a saii uh. Tedae nang long tah amih te a sola boeih na poe coeng.
29“Many daughters have done noble things, but you surpass them all!”
30Mikdaithen khaw a honghi ni. Sakthen nu khaw a honghi la om. BOEIPA a rhih dongah ni anih te a thangthen.
30Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
31A kutci te amah taengah pae uh. A bibi dongah amah te vongka ah thangthen uh saeh.
31Give her the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her at the gates.
