Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
1Sie top fisrasr akmisyela kasrkusrak, a sie kas toasr ac purakak kasrkusrak.
2The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouths of fools gush out folly.
2Ke mwet lalmwetmet elos kaskas, mwet uh mwel etauk. A mwet lalfon elos filakunla kas lusrongten.
3The LORD’s eyes are everywhere, keeping watch on the evil and the good.
3LEUM GOD El liye ma orek in acn nukewa; El suiya ma nukewa kut oru — finne wo ku koluk.
4A gentle tongue is a tree of life, but deceit in it crushes the spirit.
4Kas kulang mwe akkeye kom, a kas toasr ac mwe akmunasye kom.
5A fool despises his father’s correction, but he who heeds reproof shows prudence.
5Ma lalfon se pa in pilesru kas in luti lun papa tomom; a lalmwetmet pa in porongo kas in kai lal.
6In the house of the righteous is much treasure, but the income of the wicked brings trouble.
6Mwet suwoswos elos karinganang kasrpalos, a mwet koluk elos sununtei kasrpalos, na ke pacl koluk tuku, elos kwacola.
7The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so with the heart of fools.
7Mwet lalmwetmet akyokye etauk, a mwet lalfon elos tia.
8The sacrifice made by the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
8LEUM GOD El insewowo ke pre lun mwet wo, a El srunga mwe kisa lun mwet koluk.
9The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves him who follows after righteousness.
9LEUM GOD El srunga inkanek lun mwet koluk, a El lungse elos su oru ma suwohs.
10There is stern discipline for one who forsakes the way. Whoever hates reproof shall die.
10Kom fin oru ma koluk, kom ac sun kaiyuk upa; kom ac misa kom fin tia lela in aksuwosyeyuk kom.
11Sheol and Abaddon are before the LORD— how much more then the hearts of the children of men!
11LEUM GOD El fin ku in etu ma nukewa ma oan in facl lun mwet misa, na kalem lah sie mwet el tia ku in okanla nunak lal liki God.
12A scoffer doesn’t love to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.
12Mwet inse fulat tia lungse in aksuwosyeyuk elos; elos tiana suk kas in kasru sin mwet lalmwetmet.
13A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but an aching heart breaks the spirit.
13Ke pacl mwet uh engan, elos israsr srisrik, a ke pacl elos asor, insialos toasrlana.
14The heart of one who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
14Mwet lalkung lungse na lutlut, a mwet sulalkung mansisna in nikin.
15All the days of the afflicted are wretched, but one who has a cheerful heart enjoys a continual feast.
15Mwet sukasrup elos moul in fosrnga pacl nukewa, a mwet ma insewowo, elos moul in engan pacl nukewa.
16Better is little, with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure with trouble.
16Wo in sukasrup ac in sangeng sin LEUM GOD , liki na in kasrup ac moul in lokoalok.
17Better is a dinner of herbs, where love is, than a fattened calf with hatred.
17Ac wo in mongo mahsrik yen oasr lungse we, liki na in mongo ikwa yuyu yen oasr srunga we.
18A wrathful man stirs up contention, but one who is slow to anger appeases strife.
18Mwet mongsa elos purakak akukuin, a mwet mongfisrasr elos akmisye.
19The way of the sluggard is like a thorn patch, but the path of the upright is a highway.
19Kom fin alsrangesr, kom ac sun ma upa yen nukewa, a kom fin suwohs, wangin mwe lokoalok ac sun kom.
20A wise son makes a father glad, but a foolish man despises his mother.
20Sie tulik lalmwetmet el akenganye papa tumal. Sie tulik lalfon el pilesru nina kial.
21Folly is joy to one who is void of wisdom, but a man of understanding keeps his way straight.
21Mwet lalfon elos engankin orekma lalfon lalos, a mwet lalmwetmet elos ac oru ma suwohs.
22Where there is no counsel, plans fail; but in a multitude of counselors they are established.
22Kutena pwapa ma srihk kas in kasru nu kac, ac tia ku in fahla wo; enenu in oasr kas in kasru sin mwet pus, na ac fah wo saflaiya.
23Joy comes to a man with the reply of his mouth. How good is a word at the right time!
23Mwe engan na yohk in konauk kas fal nu ke sripa se lun pacl sac!
24The path of life leads upward for the wise, to keep him from going downward to Sheol.
24Mwet lalmwetmet elos fahsr ke inkanek ma utyak nu ke moul; tia ke inkanek ma oatula nu ke misa.

25LEUM GOD El ac fah kunausla lohm sin mwet filang, a El fah loangela acn sin katinmas.
26The LORD detests the thoughts of the wicked, but the thoughts of the pure are pleasing.
26LEUM GOD El srunga nunak koluk, a El insewowo ke kas kulang.
27He who is greedy for gain troubles his own house, but he who hates bribes will live.

30Ngetnget kulang ac akenganye kom, ac pweng wo ac fah akkeyekom.
31The ear that listens to reproof lives, and will be at home among the wise.
31Kom fin porongo pacl kaiyuk kom uh, kom lalmwetmet.
32He who refuses correction despises his own soul, but he who listens to reproof gets understanding.
32Kom fin srunga lutlut, kom sifacna akkolukye kom. Kom fin porongo kas in kai nu sum, ac fah yokelik etauk lom.
33The fear of the LORD teaches wisdom. Before honor is humility.
33Sangeng sin LEUM GOD pa inkanek nu ke etauk. Kom enenu in pusisel, na fah akfulatyeyuk kom.
