< Proverbs 10 >

1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son [is] the heaviness of his mother.
Solomon ak awicyih taw: capa ak cyi ing pa ak kaw zeel sak nawh, capa ak qaw ing nu ak kaw seet sak hy.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death.
