Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1A false balance is an abomination to the LORD, but accurate weights are his delight.
1LEUM GOD El srunga mwe paun kikiap. Mwe paun suwohs uh mwe insewowo nu sel.
2When pride comes, then comes shame, but with humility comes wisdom.
2Mwet filang ac sa na in sifacna mwekinla. Mwet moul efal pa lalmwetmet.
3The integrity of the upright shall guide them, but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.
3Inse pwaye lun mwet wo uh pa kololos. Kutasrik lun mwet sulallal pa kunauselosla.
4Riches don’t profit in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death.
4Ac fah wangin sripen mwe kasrup ke len in misa lom, a moul suwohs ac pwaye ac ku in molela moul lom.
5The righteousness of the blameless will direct his way, but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
5Moul suwohs lun sie mwet ac akfisrasrye inkanek lal, a sie mwet koluk fah ikori ke koluk lal sifacna.
6The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them, but the unfaithful will be trapped by evil desires.
6Moul suwohs uh molela mwet suwohs liki ongoiya, a mwet se su tia ku in lulalfongiyuk el sremla ke oasroasr lal sifacna.
7When a wicked man dies, hope perishes, and expectation of power comes to nothing.
7Ke pacl sie mwet koluk el misa, finsrak lal welul na wanginla. Lulalfongi lal ke mwe kasrup uh ac wanginla sripa.
8A righteous person is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked takes his place.
8Mwet suwoswos elos karinginyuk liki mwe lokoalok. Mwe lokoalok inge ac tuku nu sin mwet koluk.
9With his mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor, but the righteous will be delivered through knowledge.
9Kas lun sie mwet nikin God ku in kunauskomla, a lalmwetmet lun mwet suwoswos ku in molikomla.
10When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices. When the wicked perish, there is shouting.
10Siti nufon se enganak ke mwet suwoswos elos sun mwe insewowo nu selos, oayapa ac fah oasr sasa ke pacl mwet koluk elos misa.
11By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted, but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
11Mwet suwoswos fin akinsewowoye sie siti na ac akfulatyeyuk, a kas lun mwet koluk uh kunauselik siti sac.
12One who despises his neighbor is void of wisdom, but a man of understanding holds his peace.
12Ma lalfon se in sufan sie sin sie. Mwet etu uh elos mislana.
13One who brings gossip betrays a confidence, but one who is of a trustworthy spirit is one who keeps a secret.
13Sie mwet lesrik tia ku in lulalfongiyuk, tuh kom ku in lulalfongi sie mwet oaru, in tia fahkelik ma lukma.
14Where there is no wise guidance, the nation falls, but in the multitude of counselors there is victory.
14Sie mutunfacl ac ikori fin wangin mwet in kol we. Mwet pwapa lalmwetmet pus ac oru in oasr misla.
15He who is collateral for a stranger will suffer for it, but he who refuses pledges of collateral is secure.
15Kom fin wulela in akfalye soemoul lun sie mwetsac, kom ac auli tok. Ac wo nu sum kom fin tia kapsre kom nu kac.
16A gracious woman obtains honor, but violent men obtain riches.
16Sie mutan oawe ac fah akfulatyeyuk, a mukul sulallal uh eis na mwe kasrup.
17The merciful man does good to his own soul, but he who is cruel troubles his own flesh.
17Oasr ma lacne nu sum sifacna ke pacl kom orek kulang. Kom fin sulallal, kom akkolukye kom sifacna.
18Wicked people earn deceitful wages, but one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward.
18Ac wangin kapak pwaye lun mwet orekma koluk, tuh kom fin oru ma suwohs, kom ac fah eis mwe moul pwaye.
19He who is truly righteous gets life. He who pursues evil gets death.
19Sie mwet su insianaung in oru ma suwohs fah moul, a mwet se su sulela na ku sel in oru koluk fah misa.
20Those who are perverse in heart are an abomination to the LORD, but those whose ways are blameless are his delight.
20LEUM GOD El srunga mwet koluk nunak la, a El lungse elos su oru ma suwohs.
21Most certainly, the evil man will not be unpunished, but the offspring of the righteous will be delivered.
21Kom in etu na pwaye lah mwet koluk ac fah kalyeiyuk, a mwet suwoswos ac fah moliyukla.
22Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout, is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
22Sie mutan oasku su wangin etaten yoro, ac oana sie ring gold infwen soko pig.
23The desire of the righteous is only good. The expectation of the wicked is wrath.
23Ma mwet wo uh kena nu kac, pacl nukewa saflaiya uh ac wo. Pacl mwet koluk uh eis ma elos lungse, saflaiya uh kasrkusrak.
24There is one who scatters, and increases yet more. There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.
24Kutu mwet engan in sang ma lalos, a yokelikna kasrpalos. A kutu mwet uh arulana tawi ma lalos, a sukasrup lalos yokelikna.
25The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself.
25Kom in sang in yohk, na ac fah oasr kapkapak lom. Oru kasru lom nu sin mwet, na ac fah kasreyuk kom.
26People curse someone who withholds grain, but blessing will be on the head of him who sells it.
26Mwet uh selngawi mwet se su sruokya wheat lal in tupan nu ke pacl yokelik molo, a elos kaksakin mwet se su kukakunla ke sie moul fisrasr.
27He who diligently seeks good seeks favor, but he who searches after evil, it shall come to him.
27Mwe finsrak lom fin wo, kom ac akfulatyeyuk, tuh kom fin suk lokoalok, na lokoalok uh ac fah sun kom.
28He who trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous shall flourish as the green leaf.
28Mwet su lulalfongi mwe kasrup uh ac ikori, a mwet suwoswos ac fah kapak oana sra folfol finsroa.
29He who troubles his own house shall inherit the wind. The foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.
29Kutena mwet su use mwe lokoalok nu fin sou lal, ac wangin ma yorol ke saflaiya. Mwet lalfon uh ac fah mwet orekma lun mwet lalmwetmet.
30The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life. He who is wise wins souls.
30Suwoswos ac fah ase moul, a sulallal ac fah eisla moul.
31Behold, the righteous shall be repaid on the earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner!
31Mwet suwohs elos eis mwe moul lalos fin faclu. Ouinge kom in etu lah mwet koluk nukewa ac fah kalyeiyuk.
