< أَمْثَالٌ 10 >

أَمْثَالُ سُلَيْمَانَ: اَلِٱبْنُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ يَسُرُّ أَبَاهُ، وَٱلِٱبْنُ ٱلْجَاهِلُ حُزْنُ أُمِّهِ. ١ 1
The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father; but a foolish son is the grief of his mother.
كُنُوزُ ٱلشَّرِّ لَا تَنْفَعُ، أَمَّا ٱلْبِرُّ فَيُنَجِّي مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ. ٢ 2
Treasures of wickedness profit nothing; but righteousness delivereth from death.
اَلرَّبُّ لَا يُجِيعُ نَفْسَ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ، وَلَكِنَّهُ يَدْفَعُ هَوَى ٱلْأَشْرَارِ. ٣ 3
The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish; but He thrusteth away the desire of the wicked.
اَلْعَامِلُ بِيَدٍ رَخْوَةٍ يَفْتَقِرُ، أَمَّا يَدُ ٱلْمُجْتَهِدِينَ فَتُغْنِي. ٤ 4
He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand; but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
مَنْ يَجْمَعُ فِي ٱلصَّيْفِ فَهُوَ ٱبْنٌ عَاقِلٌ، وَمَنْ يَنَامُ فِي ٱلْحَصَادِ فَهُوَ ٱبْنٌ مُخْزٍ. ٥ 5
A wise son gathereth in summer; but a son that doeth shamefully sleepeth in harvest.
بَرَكَاتٌ عَلَى رَأْسِ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ، أَمَّا فَمُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَيَغْشَاهُ ظُلْمٌ. ٦ 6
Blessings are upon the head of the righteous; but the mouth of the wicked concealeth violence.
ذِكْرُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ لِلْبَرَكَةِ، وَٱسْمُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَنْخَرُ. ٧ 7
The memory of the righteous shall be for a blessing; but the name of the wicked shall rot.
حَكِيمُ ٱلْقَلْبِ يَقْبَلُ ٱلْوَصَايَا، وَغَبِيُّ ٱلشَّفَتَيْنِ يُصْرَعُ. ٨ 8
The wise in heart will receive commandments; but a prating fool shall fall.
مَنْ يَسْلُكُ بِٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةِ يَسْلُكُ بِٱلْأَمَانِ، وَمَنْ يُعَوِّجُ طُرُقَهُ يُعَرَّفُ. ٩ 9
He that walketh uprightly walketh securely; but he that perverteth his ways shall be found out.
مَنْ يَغْمِزُ بِٱلْعَيْنِ يُسَبِّبُ حُزْنًا، وَٱلْغَبِيُّ ٱلشَّفَتَيْنِ يُصْرَعُ. ١٠ 10
He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow; and a prating fool shall fall.
فَمُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ يَنْبُوعُ حَيَاةٍ، وَفَمُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَغْشَاهُ ظُلْمٌ. ١١ 11
The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life; but the mouth of the wicked concealeth violence.
اَلْبُغْضَةُ تُهَيِّجُ خُصُومَاتٍ، وَٱلْمَحَبَّةُ تَسْتُرُ كُلَّ ٱلذُّنُوبِ. ١٢ 12
Hatred stirreth up strifes; but love covereth all transgressions.
فِي شَفَتَيِ ٱلْعَاقِلِ تُوجَدُ حِكْمَةٌ، وَٱلْعَصَا لِظَهْرِ ٱلنَّاقِصِ ٱلْفَهْمِ. ١٣ 13
In the lips of him that hath discernment wisdom is found; but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.
اَلْحُكَمَاءُ يَذْخَرُونَ مَعْرِفَةً، أَمَّا فَمُ ٱلْغَبِيِّ فَهَلَاكٌ قَرِيبٌ. ١٤ 14
Wise men lay up knowledge; but the mouth of the foolish is an imminent ruin.
ثَرْوَةُ ٱلْغَنِيِّ مَدِينَتُهُ ٱلْحَصِينَةُ. هَلَاكُ ٱلْمَسَاكِينِ فَقْرُهُمْ. ١٥ 15
The rich man's wealth is his strong city; the ruin of the poor is their poverty.
عَمَلُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ لِلْحَيَاةِ. رِبْحُ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ لِلْخَطِيَّةِ. ١٦ 16
The wages of the righteous is life; the increase of the wicked is sin.
حَافِظُ ٱلتَّعْلِيمِ هُوَ فِي طَرِيقِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ، وَرَافِضُ ٱلتَّأْدِيبِ ضَالٌّ. ١٧ 17
He is in the way of life that heedeth instruction; but he that forsaketh reproof erreth.
مَنْ يُخْفِي ٱلْبُغْضَةَ فَشَفَتَاهُ كَاذِبَتَانِ، وَمُشِيعُ ٱلْمَذَمَّةِ هُوَ جَاهِلٌ. ١٨ 18
He that hideth hatred is of lying lips; and he that uttereth a slander is a fool.
كَثْرَةُ ٱلْكَلَامِ لَا تَخْلُو مِنْ مَعْصِيَةٍ، أَمَّا ٱلضَّابِطُ شَفَتَيْهِ فَعَاقِلٌ. ١٩ 19
In the multitude of words there wanteth not transgression; but he that refraineth his lips is wise.
لِسَانُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ فِضَّةٌ مُخْتَارَةٌ. قَلْبُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ كَشَيْءٍ زَهِيدٍ. ٢٠ 20
The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver; the heart of the wicked is little worth.
شَفَتَا ٱلصِّدِّيقِ تَهْدِيَانِ كَثِيرِينَ، أَمَّا ٱلْأَغْبِيَاءُ فَيَمُوتُونَ مِنْ نَقْصِ ٱلْفَهْمِ. ٢١ 21
The lips of the righteous feed many; but the foolish die for want of understanding.
بَرَكَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ هِيَ تُغْنِي، وَلَا يَزِيدُ مَعَهَا تَعَبًا. ٢٢ 22
The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and toil addeth nothing thereto.
فِعْلُ ٱلرَّذِيلَةِ عِنْدَ ٱلْجَاهِلِ كَٱلضِّحْكِ، أَمَّا ٱلْحِكْمَةُ فَلِذِي فَهْمٍ. ٢٣ 23
It is as sport to a fool to do wickedness, and so is wisdom to a man of discernment.
خَوْفُ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ هُوَ يَأْتِيهِ، وَشَهْوَةُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ تُمْنَحُ. ٢٤ 24
The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him; and the desire of the righteous shall be granted.
كَعُبُورِ ٱلزَّوْبَعَةِ فَلَا يَكُونُ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ، أَمَّا ٱلصِّدِّيقُ فَأَسَاسٌ مُؤَبَّدٌ. ٢٥ 25
When the whirlwind passeth, the wicked is no more; but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
كَٱلْخَلِّ لِلْأَسْنَانِ، وَكَالدُّخَانِ لِلْعَيْنَيْنِ، كَذَلِكَ ٱلْكَسْلَانُ لِلَّذِينَ أَرْسَلُوهُ. ٢٦ 26
As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.
مَخَافَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ تَزِيدُ ٱلْأَيَّامَ، أَمَّا سِنُو ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَتُقْصَرُ. ٢٧ 27
The fear of the LORD prolongeth days; but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
مُنْتَظَرُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ مُفَرِّحٌ، أَمَّا رَجَاءُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَيَبِيدُ. ٢٨ 28
The hope of the righteous is gladness; but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
حِصْنٌ لِلِٱسْتِقَامَةِ طَرِيقُ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَٱلْهَلَاكُ لِفَاعِلِي ٱلْإِثْمِ. ٢٩ 29
The way of the LORD is a stronghold to the upright, but ruin to the workers of iniquity.
اَلصِّدِّيقُ لَنْ يُزَحْزَحَ أَبَدًا، وَٱلْأَشْرَارُ لَنْ يَسْكُنُوا ٱلْأَرْضَ. ٣٠ 30
The righteous shall never be moved; but the wicked shall not inhabit the land.
فَمُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِ يُنْبِتُ ٱلْحِكْمَةَ، أَمَّا لِسَانُ ٱلْأَكَاذِيبِ فَيُقْطَعُ. ٣١ 31
The mouth of the righteous buddeth with wisdom; but the froward tongue shall be cut off.
شَفَتَا ٱلصِّدِّيقِ تَعْرِفَانِ ٱلْمَرْضِيَّ، وَفَمُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ أَكَاذِيبُ. ٣٢ 32
The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable; but the mouth of the wicked is all frowardness.
