< أَمْثَالٌ 13 >
اَلِٱبْنُ ٱلْحَكِيمُ يَقْبَلُ تَأْدِيبَ أَبِيهِ، وَٱلْمُسْتَهْزِئُ لَا يَسْمَعُ ٱنْتِهَارًا. | ١ 1 |
A wijs sone is the teching of the fadir; but he that is a scornere, herith not, whanne he is repreuyd.
مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ فَمِهِ يَأْكُلُ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ خَيْرًا، وَمَرَامُ ٱلْغَادِرِينَ ظُلْمٌ. | ٢ 2 |
A man schal be fillid with goodis of the fruit of his mouth; but the soule of vnpitouse men is wickid.
مَنْ يَحْفَظُ فَمَهُ يَحْفَظُ نَفْسَهُ. مَنْ يَشْحَرْ شَفَتَيْهِ فَلَهُ هَلَاكٌ. | ٣ 3 |
He that kepith his mouth, kepith his soule; but he that is vnwar to speke, schal feel yuels.
نَفْسُ ٱلْكَسْلَانِ تَشْتَهِي وَلَا شَيْءَ لَهَا، وَنَفْسُ ٱلْمُجْتَهِدِينَ تَسْمَنُ. | ٤ 4 |
A slow man wole, and wole not; but the soule of hem that worchen schal be maad fat.
اَلصِّدِّيقُ يُبْغِضُ كَلَامَ كَذِبٍ، وَٱلشِّرِّيرُ يُخْزِي وَيُخْجِلُ. | ٥ 5 |
A iust man schal wlate a fals word; but a wickid man schendith, and schal be schent.
اَلْبِرُّ يَحْفَظُ ٱلْكَامِلَ طَرِيقَهُ، وَٱلشَّرُّ يَقْلِبُ ٱلْخَاطِئَ. | ٦ 6 |
Riytfulnesse kepith the weie of an innocent man; but wickidnesse disseyueth a synnere.
يُوجَدُ مَنْ يَتَغَانَى وَلَا شَيْءَ عِنْدَهُ، وَمَنْ يَتَفَاقَرُ وَعِنْدَهُ غِنًى جَزِيلٌ. | ٧ 7 |
A man is as riche, whanne he hath no thing; and a man is as pore, whanne he is in many richessis.
فِدْيَةُ نَفْسِ رَجُلٍ غِنَاهُ، أَمَّا ٱلْفَقِيرُ فَلَا يَسْمَعُ ٱنْتِهَارًا. | ٨ 8 |
Redempcioun of the soule of man is hise richessis; but he that is pore, suffrith not blamyng.
نُورُ ٱلصِّدِّيقِينَ يُفَرِّحُ، وَسِرَاجُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ يَنْطَفِئُ. | ٩ 9 |
The liyt of iust men makith glad; but the lanterne of wickid men schal be quenchid.
اَلْخِصَامُ إِنَّمَا يَصِيرُ بِٱلْكِبْرِيَاءِ، وَمَعَ ٱلْمُتَشَاوِرِينَ حِكْمَةٌ. | ١٠ 10 |
Stryues ben euere a mong proude men; but thei that don alle thingis with counsel, ben gouerned bi wisdom.

ٱلرَّجَاءُ ٱلْمُمَاطَلُ يُمْرِضُ ٱلْقَلْبَ، وَٱلشَّهْوَةُ ٱلْمُتَمَّمَةُ شَجَرَةُ حَيَاةٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
Hope which is dilaied, turmentith the soule; a tre of lijf is desir comyng.
مَنِ ٱزْدَرَى بِٱلْكَلِمَةِ يُخْرِبُ نَفْسَهُ، وَمَنْ خَشِيَ ٱلْوَصِيَّةَ يُكَافَأُ. | ١٣ 13 |
He that bacbitith ony thing, byndith hym silf in to tyme to comynge; but he that dredith the comaundement, schal lyue in pees.
شَرِيعَةُ ٱلْحَكِيمِ يَنْبُوعُ حَيَاةٍ لِلْحَيَدَانِ عَنْ أَشْرَاكِ ٱلْمَوْتِ. | ١٤ 14 |

Good teching schal yyue grace; a swolowe is in the weie of dispiseris.
كُلُّ ذَكِيٍّ يَعْمَلُ بِٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ، وَٱلْجَاهِلُ يَنْشُرُ حُمْقًا. | ١٦ 16 |
A fel man doith alle thingis with counsel; but he that is a fool, schal opene foli.
اَلرَّسُولُ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ يَقَعُ فِي ٱلشَّرِّ، وَٱلسَّفِيرُ ٱلْأَمِينُ شِفَاءٌ. | ١٧ 17 |
The messanger of a wickid man schal falle in to yuel; a feithful messanger is helthe.
فَقْرٌ وَهَوَانٌ لِمَنْ يَرْفُضُ ٱلتَّأْدِيبَ، وَمَنْ يُلَاحِظ ٱلتَّوْبِيخَ يُكْرَمْ. | ١٨ 18 |

Desir, if it is fillid, delitith the soule; foolis wlaten hem that fleen yuels.
اَلْمُسَايِرُ ٱلْحُكَمَاءَ يَصِيرُ حَكِيمًا، وَرَفِيقُ ٱلْجُهَّالِ يُضَرُّ. | ٢٠ 20 |
He that goith with wijs men, schal be wijs; the freend of foolis schal be maad lijk hem.

Yuel pursueth synneris; and goodis schulen be yoldun to iust men.
اَلصَّالِحُ يُورِثُ بَنِي ٱلْبَنِينَ، وَثَرْوَةُ ٱلْخَاطِئِ تُذْخَرُ لِلصِّدِّيقِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
A good man schal leeue aftir him eiris, sones, and the sones of sones; and the catel of a synnere is kept to a iust man.
فِي حَرْثِ ٱلْفُقَرَاءِ طَعَامٌ كَثِيرٌ، وَيُوجَدُ هَالِكٌ مِنْ عَدَمِ ٱلْحَقِّ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Many meetis ben in the new tilid feeldis of fadris; and ben gaderid to othere men with out doom.
مَنْ يَمْنَعُ عَصَاهُ يَمْقُتِ ٱبْنَهُ، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّهُ يَطْلُبُ لَهُ ٱلتَّأْدِيبَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
He that sparith the yerde, hatith his sone; but he that loueth him, techith bisili.
اَلصِّدِّيقُ يَأْكُلُ لِشَبَعِ نَفْسِهِ، أَمَّا بَطْنُ ٱلْأَشْرَارِ فَيَحْتَاجُ. | ٢٥ 25 |
A iust man etith, and fillith his soule; but the wombe of wickid men is vnable to be fillid.
