Proverbs 22
1 A [good] name is rather to be chosen than great riches; loving favour rather than silver and gold.
Rumbeng a ti nasayaat a nagan ti pilien saan ket a tay adu a kinabaknang, ken nasaysayaat ti pabor ngem ti pirak ken balitok.
2 The rich and poor meet together; Jehovah is the maker of them all.
Addaan kadagitoy dagiti nabaknang ken nakurapay a tattao - ni Yahweh ti nangaramid amin kadakuada.
3 A prudent [man] seeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.
Ti masirib a tao ket makitana ti riribuk ket iliklikna ti bagina, ngem sarakusuken daytoy dagiti tattao nga awan kapadasanna ket agsagabada gapu iti daytoy.
4 The reward of humility [and] the fear of Jehovah is riches, and honour, and life.
Ti gunggona iti panagpakumbaba ken panagbuteng ken ni Yahweh ket kinabaknang, dayaw, ken biag.
5 Thorns [and] snares are in the way of the perverse: he that keepeth his soul holdeth himself far from them.
Adda sisiit ken silsilo iti dalan dagiti dakes; ti siasinoman a mangsaluad iti biagna ket maiyadayo kadagitoy.
6 Train up the child according to the tenor of his way, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
Isurom ti ubing iti wagas a rumbeng a panagbiagna, ket inton dumakkel isuna, saanto isuna a sumiasi iti dayta a panursuro.
7 The rich ruleth over the poor; and the borrower is servant to the lender.
Iturayan dagiti nabaknang a tattao dagiti napanglaw, ken ti nakautang ket tagabu ti nagpautang.
8 He that soweth unrighteousness shall reap iniquity, and the rod of his wrath shall have an end.
Ti agimula iti kinadangkes ket agapitto iti riribuk, ket awanton ti serserbi ti baot ti pungtotna.
9 He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed, for he giveth of his bread to the poor.
Mabendisionanto ti managparabur a tao, gapu ta ibingbingayanna iti tinapayna dagiti napanglaw.
10 Cast out the scorner, and contention will depart, and strife and ignominy shall cease.
Papanawem ti mananglais, ket mapukaw ti panagririri; sumardeng dagiti panagsusuppiat ken panangin-insulto.
11 He that loveth pureness of heart, upon whose lips is grace, the king is his friend.
Ti mangayat iti nasin-aw a puso ken nasayaat ti panagsasaona, ket agbalinto a gayemna ti ari.
12 The eyes of Jehovah preserve knowledge; but he overthroweth the words of the unfaithful.
Kanayon a sipsiputan dagiti mata ni Yahweh ti pannakaammo, ngem daddadaelenna dagiti sasao dagiti mangliliput.
13 The sluggard saith, There is a lion without, I shall be killed in the streets!
Kuna ti sadut a tao, “Adda leon iti kalsada! Matayak la ketdi no rummuarak.”
14 The mouth of strange women is a deep ditch: he with whom Jehovah is displeased shall fall therein.
Ti ngiwat ti mannakikamalala a babai ket kasla nauneg nga abut; mapasgedan ti pungtot ni Yahweh iti siasinoman a matnag iti daytoy.
15 Folly is bound in the heart of a child; the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Siguden nga adda kinamaag iti puso ti maysa nga ubing, ngem ikkaten daytoy ti baut ti panangisuro.
16 He that oppresseth the poor, it is to enrich him; he that giveth to the rich, [bringeth] only to want.
Ti mangidaddadanes kadagiti nakurapay a tattao tapno umadu ti kinabaknangna, wenno ti mangmangted kadagiti nabaknang a tattao, ket pumanglawto.
17 Incline thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thy heart unto my knowledge.
Ipangagmo ken denggem dagiti sasao dagiti masirib, ket imulam dita pusom ti pannakaammo nga isursurok,
18 For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee: they shall be together fitted on thy lips.
ta nasayaat para kenka no salimetmetam dagitoy iti kaunggam, no nakasagana amin dagitoy kadagiti bibigmo.
19 That thy confidence may be in Jehovah, I have made [them] known to thee this day, even to thee.
Tapno ti panagtalekmo ket adda kenni Yahweh, isurok dagitoy ita kenka-uray pay kenka.
20 Have not I written to thee excellent things, in counsels and knowledge,
Saan kadi a nangisuratak para kenka iti tallopulo a bilbilin ken pannakaammo,
21 that I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest carry back words of truth to them that send thee?
a mangisuro kenka iti kinapudno nga adda kadagitoy a sasao, tapno makaitedka kadagiti nasayaat a sungbat kadagiti nangibaon kenka?
22 Rob not the poor, because he is poor, neither oppress the afflicted in the gate;
Saanmo a takawan ti napanglaw a tao, gapu ta napanglaw isuna, wenno ibaddebaddek dagiti marigrigat nga adda iti ruangan,
23 for Jehovah will plead their cause, and despoil the soul of those that despoil them.
ta ninto Yahweh ti mangikalintegan iti kasoda, ket pukawennanto ti biag dagiti nagtakaw kadakuada.
24 Make no friendship with an angry man, and go not with a furious man;
Saanka a makigayyem iti tao nga iturturayan ti unget, ken saanka a makikuykuyog iti tao a managpungpungtot,
25 lest thou learn his paths, and get a snare to thy soul.
amangan no masursuromton dagiti wagasna, ket saankaton a makalapsut iti silo.
26 Be not of them that strike hands, of them that are sureties for debts:
Saanka nga agkari no maipapan iti kuarta, ken saanka a mangted iti pammaneknek iti utang ti sabali.
27 if thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed from under thee?
No saankanto a makabayad, ania koma ngay ti makalapped iti tao a nagkariam inton alaenna ti katre a pagid-iddaam?
28 Remove not the ancient landmark which thy fathers have set.
Saanmo nga ikkaten ti nagkakauna a mohon nga impasdek dagiti ammayo.
29 Hast thou seen a man diligent in his work? He shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before the mean.
Makakitaka ngata iti tao a nalaing iti trabahona? Iti sangoanan ngarud dagiti ar-ari ti pagtakderanna; saan nga iti sangoanan dagiti kadawyan a tattao.
