Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1He who is often rebuked and stiffens his neck will be destroyed suddenly, with no remedy.
1Kom fin likkekelana ke pacl mwet uh aksuwosye kom, sie len kom ac musalla ac tia ku in sifil tuyak.
2When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; but when the wicked rule, the people groan.
2Sie mwet suwoswos fin leum, na mwet nukewa ac engan. Sie mwet sesuwos fin leum, na mwet nukewa asor.
3Whoever loves wisdom brings joy to his father; but a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.
3Kom fin aksaokye lalmwetmet, na papa tomom el ac engan sum. Ma lalfon se in sisla mani ke mutan kosro su kukakin mano.
4The king by justice makes the land stable, but he who takes bribes tears it down.
4Sie tokosra su suk ma suwohs, mutunfacl sel ac fah arulana ku; a el fin nunku na ke mani, el ac kunausla mutunfacl sel.
5A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.
5Kom fin aklukukye kawuk lom an, kom sifacna oakiya sie mwe kwasrip nu sum.

6Mwet koluk uh sifacna sremla in ma koluk lalos, a mwet suwoswos elos on ac engan.
7The righteous care about justice for the poor. The wicked aren’t concerned about knowledge.
7Mwet wo elos kalem ke enenu lun mwet sukasrup, a mwet koluk elos tiana nunku ke ma inge.
8Mockers stir up a city, but wise men turn away anger.
8Mwet folkas uh ku in akfohsyauk siti nufon se. Elos su lalmwetmet ku in akmisyela.
9If a wise man goes to court with a foolish man, the fool rages or scoffs, and there is no peace.
9Ke sie mwet lalmwetmet el usak sie mwet lalfon nu in nununku, mwet lalfon sac ac israsr ac wowoyak ke kas in sufan nu sel.
10The bloodthirsty hate a man of integrity; and they seek the life of the upright.
10Mwet akmas uh kwase mwet ma oru ma suwohs, a mwet suwoswos elos ac suk in loango moul lun mwet suwohs.
11A fool vents all of his anger, but a wise man brings himself under control.

12Sie mwet leum fin lohang nu ke kas kikiap, mwet pwapa lal nukewa ac fah kikiap.
13The poor man and the oppressor have this in common: The LORD gives sight to the eyes of both.
13Mwet sukasrup ac mwet su akkeokyalos elos oana sie in lumah se inge: LEUM GOD pa oru elos in ku in liye.
14The king who fairly judges the poor, his throne shall be established forever.

15The rod of correction gives wisdom, but a child left to himself causes shame to his mother.
15Ma wowo se in kai ac aksuwosye sie tulik. Fin filfilla elan oru lungse lal sifacna, ac fah mwe mwekin nu sin nina kial.
16When the wicked increase, sin increases; but the righteous will see their downfall.
16Ke pacl mwet koluk uh kol, ma koluk ac yokelik. Tusruktu mwet suwoswos ac fah moul ac liye ke mwet inge tila kol.
17Correct your son, and he will give you peace; yes, he will bring delight to your soul.
17Kai wen nutum, ac kom ac fah insewowo sel pacl nukewa. El ac fah tiana akmwekinye kom.
18Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; but one who keeps the law is blessed.
18Sie mutunfacl ma tia lohang nu ke kolyuk lun God ac fohsak. Insewowo elos su liyaung ma sap lun God!
19A servant can’t be corrected by words. Though he understands, yet he will not respond.
19Kom tia ku in kai sie mwet kulansap ke kas mukena. El ac ku in kalem kac, tuh el ac tiana lohang nu kac.

21Kom fin sang nu sin mwet kulansap lom ma nukewa ma el lungse ke el srikyak, sie len el ac sruokya ma lom nukewa.
22An angry man stirs up strife, and a wrathful man abounds in sin.
22Mwet mongsa uh purakak akukuin ac lokoalok pacl nukewa.
23A man’s pride brings him low, but one of lowly spirit gains honor.
23Filang lun sie mwet ac fah akmwekinyal; ac kom fin inse pusisel, ac akfulatyeyuk kom.
24Whoever is an accomplice of a thief is an enemy of his own soul. He takes an oath, but dares not testify.
24Sie mwet kasru lun mwet pisrapasr el pwanma mwe lokoalok nu sel sifacna. El fin fahkak ma pwaye ye mutun nununku, el ac fah eis kai. Ac el fin wikin, na ac fah selngawiyuk el.
25The fear of man proves to be a snare, but whoever puts his trust in the LORD is kept safe.
25Sie mwe sensen in nunku ke ma mwet uh nunku keim; tuh kom fin lulalfongi in LEUM GOD , kom ac tiana sensen.
