Berean Standard Bible
1Wo in kang bread mahi ke inse misla, liki na in wi kufwa in sie lohm ma oasr akukuin we.
1Better a dry morsel in quietness than a house full of feasting with strife.
2Sie mwet kulansap su oaru ac lalmwetmet fah fulat liki sie wen sununta nutin mwet kacto lal, ouinge el ac wi usrui ma lun tulik nutin mwet kacto lal.
2A wise servant will rule over a disgraceful son and share his inheritance as one of the brothers.
3Gold ac silver uh srikeyuk ke e, ac insien mwet uh srikeyuk sin LEUM GOD .
3A crucible for silver and a furnace for gold, but the LORD is the tester of hearts.
4Mwet koluk uh lohang nu ke nunak koluk, ac mwet kikiap lungse lohng kas kikiap.
4A wicked man listens to evil lips; a liar gives ear to a destructive tongue.
5Kom fin aksruksruki mwet sukasrup, kom aklusrongtenye God su oralosla. Ac fah kaiyuk kom, kom fin engankin ongoiya lun mwet ngia.
5He who mocks the poor insults their Maker; whoever gloats over calamity will not go unpunished.
6Mwet matu uh engankin tulik nutin tulik natulos, oapana ke tulik uh engankin papa tumalos.
6Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of a son is his father.
7Sufal mwet leum in fahk kas kikiap, oayapa kas wo tia tuku sin sie mwet lalfon.
7Eloquent words are unfit for a fool; how much worse are lying lips to a ruler!
8Kutu mwet uh nunku mu eyeinse uh oana mwenmen. Elos lulalfongi mu ku in sang ma nukewa nu selos.
8A bribe is a charm to its giver; wherever he turns, he succeeds.
9Kom fin lungse mwet in lungse kom, kom nunak munas nu selos ke ma koluk elos oru nu sum. Kom fin sikalani in sramsramkin, ac ku in kunauselik inmasrlon sie kawuk.
9Whoever conceals an offense promotes love, but he who brings it up separates friends.
10Kas in kaiyuk sefanna ku in aksuwosyela sie mwet lalmwetmet, a sringsring siofok tia ku in aksuwosyela sie mwet lalfon.
10A rebuke cuts into a man of discernment deeper than a hundred lashes cut into a fool.
11Mwet koluk elos purakak akukuin pacl nukewa, na ac fah supweyukla sie mwet roso sulallal in lainulos.
11An evil man seeks only rebellion; a cruel messenger will be sent against him.
12Kom fin osun nu sin soko bear ma pisrapasrla natu natul, ac srik sensen lom liki kom fin osun nu sin sie mwet lalfon kafofo ke orekma lusrongten lal.
12It is better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool in his folly.
13Kom fin eis ma wo ac folokin ke ma koluk, ma koluk fah tia ku in wanginla liki lohm sum.
13If anyone returns evil for good, evil will never leave his house.
14Mutaweyen sie akukuin oana ke sie dam tufahna srasrelik, ke ma inge tulokinya akukuin sac meet liki ac yokelik.
14To start a quarrel is to release a flood; so abandon the dispute before it breaks out.
15Aksukosokye sie mwet koluk, ku kapriya sie mwet wangin mwata — lumah luo inge kewa srungayuk sin LEUM GOD .
15Acquitting the guilty and condemning the righteous— both are detestable to the LORD.
16Wangin sripa sie mwet lalfon in sisla mani nu ke lutlut, mweyen wangin etauk sel.
16Why should the fool have money in his hand with no intention of buying wisdom?
17Mwet kawuk uh akkalemye lungse lalos pacl nukewa. Ma kunen sou uh in akasrui ke pacl upa.
17A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
18Mwet na wangin nunak la pa ac orek wulela in akfalye soemoul lun siena mwet.
18A man lacking judgment strikes hands in pledge and puts up security for his neighbor.
19Mwet su lungse ma koluk elos lungse orek lokoalok. Kom fin konkin mwe kasrup lom pacl nukewa, kom purakak lokoalok.
19He who loves transgression loves strife; he who builds his gate high invites destruction.
20Elos su nunak koluk ac kaskas koluk, ac fah wangin ma wo nu selos, a ongoiya mukena.
20The one with a perverse heart finds no good, and he whose tongue is deceitful falls into trouble.
21Mwe na asor ac toasr nu sin sie papa ma tulik natul uh oru ma lalfon.
21A man fathers a fool to his own grief; the father of a fool has no joy.
22Inse engan mwe akkeye monum. A el su kwacna inse toasr, fah akmunasye manol.
22A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones.
23Mwet nununku sesuwos elos eis mwe eyeinse in lukma. Ke ouinge uh nununku suwohs tiana orekla.
23A wicked man takes a covert bribe to subvert the course of justice.
24Mwet lalkung elos sulela in akwot nu ke soko inkanek lalmwetmet, a mwet lalfon uh takusrkusr ke inkanek puspis.
24Wisdom is the focus of the discerning, but the eyes of a fool wander to the ends of the earth.
25Sie tulik lalfon el mwe toasr nu sin papa tumal, ac akmwenye insien nina kiyal.
25A foolish son brings grief to his father and bitterness to her who bore him.
26Tia wo in sang kaiyuk nu sin mwet wangin mwata, ku kalyeiyuk mwet oru ma pwaye. Fin ouinge, nununku uh kihla.
26It is surely not good to punish the innocent or to flog a noble for his honesty.
27Mwet lalmwetmet na pwaye elos tia oalinkas. Mwet ma muta misla pa liyaten uh.
27A man of knowledge restrains his words, and a man of understanding maintains a calm spirit.
28Sie mwet lalfon fin muta misla ac tia sramsram, ku in nunkeyuk mu el lalmwetmet.
28Even a fool is considered wise if he keeps silent, and discerning when he holds his tongue.
