< Proverbs 1 >

1 The proverbs of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel:
Dagiti proverbio ni Solomon nga anak ni David, ti ari ti Israel.
2 To know wisdom and instruction, to discern the words of understanding.
Mangisuro dagitoy a proverbio iti kinasirib ken sursuro, mangisuro kadagiti sasao iti pudno a pannakaawat,
3 To receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice, and equity.
tapno maawatyo koma ti pannakailinteg tapno agbiagkayo babaen iti panangaramid iti umno, nalinteg, ken maiparbeng.
4 To give shrewdness to the inexperienced, knowledge and discretion to the young man.
Mangted met dagitoy a proverbio iti kinasirib kadagiti saan a nasuroan, ken mangted iti pannakaammo ken kinatimbeng kadagiti agtutubo.
5 A wise man will hear and increase in learning, and a man of understanding will attain to sound counsel.
Dumngeg koma dagiti nasirib a tattao ket manayunan ti pannakasursuroda, ken makagun-od koma dagiti mannakaawat a tattao iti pannakatarabay,
6 To understand a proverb, and parables, the words and riddles of the wise.
tapno maawatanda dagiti proverbio, pagsasao, ken dagiti sasao dagiti nasirib a tattao ken dagiti burburtiada.
7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; but the foolish despise wisdom and instruction.
Ti panagbuteng kenni Yahweh ket isu ti pangrugian iti pannakaammo— laisen dagiti maag ti kinasirib ken disiplina.
8 My son, listen to your father's instruction, and do not forsake your mother's teaching:
Anakko, denggem dagiti sursuro ti amam, ken saanmo a baybay-an dagiti annuroten ti inam;
9 for they will be a garland to grace your head, and a necklace around your neck.
agbalindanto a makaay-ayo a balangat ti ulom ken kuwintas iti tengngedmo.
10 My son, if sinners entice you, do not consent.
Anakko, no awisendaka dagiti managbasol iti basolda, agkedkedka a sumurot kadakuada.
11 If they say, "Come with us, Let's lie in wait for blood; let's lurk secretly for the innocent without cause;
No kunaenda, “Kumuyogka kadakami, mangpadaantayo iti patayentayo, aglemmengtayo ket mangdaruptayo lattan kadagiti inosente a tattao.
12 let's swallow them up alive like Sheol, and whole, like those who go down into the pit. (Sheol h7585)
Alun-onentayo ida a sibibiag, kas iti panangala ti sheol kadagiti nasalun-at, ket pagbalinentayo ida a kas kadagiti matmatnag iti abut. (Sheol h7585)
13 We'll find all valuable wealth. We'll fill our houses with spoil.
Makasaraktayo kadagiti amin a kita dagiti napapateg a banbanag; punnoentayo dagiti balbalaytayo kadagiti tinakawtayo kadagiti dadduma.
14 Throw in your lot with us. We'll all have one purse."
Makikappengka kadakami; pagbalinentayo a maymaysa ti supottayo.”
15 My son, do not walk in the way with them. Keep your foot from their path,
Anakko, saanka a makipagna kadakuada iti dayta a dalan; saanmo nga idisdiso ta sakam iti pagpagnaanda;
16 for their feet run to evil. They hurry to shed blood.
tumartaray dagiti sakada iti kinadakes ken agdardarasda a mangpasayasay iti dara.
17 For in vain is the net spread in the sight of any bird:
Ta awan serserbina nga agipakatka iti iket a mangtiliw iti billit kabayatan a kumitkita ti billit.
18 but these lie in wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.
Agpadpadaan dagitoy a tattao a mangpapatayto met laeng kadagiti mismo a bagbagida— mangipakpakatda iti palab-og para kadagiti mismo a bagbagida.
19 So are the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain. It takes away the life of its owners.
Kasta dagiti wagas ti amin a tao a manggunggun-od kadagiti kinabaknang babaen iti kinakillo; dagiti banag a nagun-od babaen iti saan a maiparbeng a wagas ti mangpukawto kadagiti biag dagiti kumpet iti daytoy.
20 Wisdom calls aloud in the street. She utters her voice in the public squares.
Agpukpukkaw ti kinasirib iti kalsada, ipigpigsana ti timekna kadagiti nagtengngaan ti ili;
21 She calls at the head of noisy places. At the entrance of the city gates, she utters her words:
aglaawlaaw isuna iti nagsasabatan dagiti kalsada, iti pagserkan dagiti ruangan ti siudad ket kunkunana,
22 "How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery, and fools hate knowledge?
“Dakayo nga awanan iti kinasirib, kasano pay kapaut aya ti panangay-ayatyo iti saanyo a maaw-awatan? Dakayo a mananglais, kasano pay kabayag aya ti panangragragsakyo iti pananglalaisyo, ken dakayo a maag, kasano pay kabayag aya a gurguraenyo ti kinalaing?
23 Turn at my reproof. Look, I will pour out my spirit on you. I will make known my words to you.
Denggenyo ti panangbabalawko; ibukbukkonto dagiti kapanunotak kadakayo; ipakaammokto dagiti sasaok kadakayo.
24 Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;
Immawagak ket saankayo a dimngeg; Inyunnatko ti imak, ngem awan ti nangikaskaso.
25 but you have ignored all my counsel, and wanted none of my reproof;
Ngem saanyo nga inkankano dagiti amin a sursurok ken saanyo nga impangag ti panangtubtubngarko.
26 I also will laugh at your disaster. I will mock when calamity overtakes you;
Katawaakto ti pannakadidigrayo, laisenkayonto inton dumteng ti panagbuteng—
27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when your disaster comes on like a whirlwind; when distress and anguish come on you.
inton dumteng a kasla bagyo ti kasta unay a butengyo ket iyanginnakayo ti didigra a kas iti alipugpog, inton dumteng ti panagrigat ken panagtuok kadakayo.
28 Then will they call on me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me;
Iti kasta ket awagandakto, ngem saanakto a sumungbat; kastanto unay ti panangawagda kaniak, ngem saandakto a masarakan.
29 because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD.
Gapu ta kagurada ti pannakaammo ken saanda a pinili ti agbuteng kenni Yahweh,
30 They wanted none of my counsel. They despised all my reproof.
saanda a sinurot ti sursurok, ken linaisda amin a panangilintegko.
31 Therefore they will eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own schemes.
Kanendanto ti bunga dagiti aramidda, ket mapnekdanto babaen iti bunga dagiti panggepda.
32 For the backsliding of the simple will kill them. The careless ease of fools will destroy them.
Mapapatayto dagiti saan a nasuroan inton tumallikudda, ket ti di panangikaskaso dagiti maag ti mangdadaelto kadakuada.
33 But whoever listens to me will dwell securely, and will be at ease, without fear of harm."
Ngem ti siasinoman a dumngeg kaniak ket agbiagto a sitatalged ken aginananto a sitatalged nga awanan iti panagbuteng iti didigra.”
