King James Version with Apocrypha
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
1Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
1Palunghahaih mah im tung sarihto a aah moe, ohhaih im to a sak;
2She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.
2angmah pacah ih moinawk to a boh; misurtui to a lawn moe, caboi to pahnut.
3She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
3A tok sahkung tanglanawk to patoeh moe, vangpui kasang koek ahmuen ah angdoet pacoengah, a hangh.
4Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
4Poekhaih tawn kaminawk haeah angzo oh; khokhan thai ai kaminawk anih khaeah angzo oh, tiah a kawk,
5Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
5angzo oh, kai ih takaw hae caa oh loe, ka lawn tangcae misurtui hae nae oh.
6Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
6Na hing hanah, khosak amthuhaih to caeh taak ah loe, palunghahaih loklam to pazui ah.
7He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
7Kami tiah doeh sah ai kami thuitaekung loe azathaih to tongh moe, kahoih ai kami thuitaekkung doeh kasae thuihaih to tong lat.
8Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
8Kami pahnui thuih kami to zoeh hmah, na hnuma lat tih; palungha kami to na zoeh nahaeloe, na palung tih.
9Give instruction to a wise man , and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man , and he will increase in learning.
9Palungha kami na thuitaek nahaeloe, palungha aep tih; katoeng kami to na patuk nahaeloe, anih amtukhaih to sang aep tih.
10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
10Angraeng zithaih loe palungha amtonghaih takung pui ah oh; ciimcai Sithaw panoekhaih loe palunghahaih ah oh.
11For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
11Kai rang hoiah na hinglung sawk ueloe, na hinghaih saning to pop tih.
12If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it .
12Palung na ha nahaeloe palunghahaih atho to na hnu tih; toe minawk khet na patoek nahaeloe, nangmah na zok tih.
13¶ A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.
13Amthu nongpata ih lok loe ham; anih loe poekhaih tawn ai moe, panoekhaih tidoeh tawn ai.
14For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
14Anih loe angmah im thok taengah anghnut moe, vangpui kasang koek ahmuen ah anghnut,
15To call passengers who go right on their ways:
15katoeng loklam caeh kaminawk to a kawk;
16Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
16poekhaih tawn ai kaminawk khaeah athung bangah angzo oh, tiah a naa; khokhan thai ai kaminawk khaeah loe,
17Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.
17paquk ih tui loe luep, tamquta hoi caak ih takaw loe khraem, tiah a naa.
18But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.
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
