Притчи 25
New Russian Translation
Другие мудрые изречения Соломона
25 Вот еще изречения Соломона, собранные людьми Езекии, царя Иудеи[a]:
2 Божья слава – окутывать дело тайной,
слава царя – исследовать дело.
3 Как небеса высотой и земля глубиной,
так и царское сердце непостижимо.
4 Удали примесь из серебра,
и у ювелира будет сырье для сосуда;
5 удали нечестивого от царя,
и его престол утвердится праведностью.
6 Не заносись перед царем
и не занимай места между великими;
7 лучше пусть он тебе скажет: «Сюда поднимись»,
чем унизит тебя перед знатным.
То, что ты видел своими глазами,
8 не спеши принести на суд.
Что ты станешь делать в конце,
если ближний твой тебя пристыдит?
9 Если ведешь с ближним тяжбу,
не открывай чужой тайны,
10 иначе услышавший[b] пристыдит тебя,
и слава дурная от тебя не отстанет.
11 Слово, сказанное уместно,
подобно золотым яблокам в оправе из серебра.
12 Что золотая серьга или из чистого золота украшение,
то упрек мудреца для уха внимательного.
13 Что холод снега в жатвенный зной,
то верный посланник для того, кто его посылает;
душу хозяина он бодрит.
14 Что облака и ветер без дождя –
тот, кто хвастается подарками, которых не дарил.
15 Терпением можно убедить повелителя;
и кроткий язык кость переламывает.
16 Нашел мед – ешь лишь сколько потребно,
иначе объешься, и тебя стошнит.
17 Пореже ходи в дом друга,
иначе, устав от тебя, он тебя возненавидит.
18 Что булава, меч или острая стрела –
человек, лжесвидетельствующий против ближнего.
19 Что зуб гнилой или хромая нога –
надежда на вероломного в день беды.
20 Как снимающий одежду в холодный день
или как уксус на соду[c],
так и поющий печальному сердцу песни.
21 Если враг твой голоден – накорми его;
если он хочет пить – напои водой.
22 Поступая так, ты соберешь горящие угли ему на голову[d],
а тебя наградит Господь.
23 Северный ветер приносит дождь,
а язык клеветника – гневные лица.
24 Лучше жить на углу крыши,
чем делить дом со сварливой женой.
25 Что холодная вода для измученной жаждой души –
добрые вести из дальнего края.
26 Как мутный ключ или родник оскверненный –
праведник, уступающий нечестивым.
27 Нехорошо есть слишком много меда,
как и постоянно искать себе славы[e].
28 Каков город, чьи стены рухнули,
таков и человек, не владеющий собой.

Hulubaton 25
Ang Pulong Sang Dios
Ang Iban pa nga mga Hulubaton ni Solomon
25 Ari pa gid ang iban nga mga hulubaton ni Solomon nga ginkopya sang mga tinawo ni Haring Hezekia sang Juda:
2 Ginapadunggan naton ang Dios tungod sa mga butang nga wala niya ginapahayag sa aton; pero ginapadunggan naton ang mga hari tungod sa mga butang nga ginapahayag nila sa aton.
3 Subong nga indi matakos ang kataason sang langit kag ang kadalumon sang duta, indi man matungkad ang hunahuna sang mga hari.
4 Kinahanglan nga kuhaon anay ang mga nagasimbog sa pilak antes ini pormahon sang platero. 5 Kinahanglan nga pahalinon ang malaot nga mga katawhan[a] sang hari, kag magapadayon ang iya ginharian nga may pagkamatarong.
6 Kon ara ka sa atubangan sang hari, indi pagkabiga ang imo kaugalingon nga daw si sin-o ka na gid paagi sa pagpungko upod sa dungganon nga mga tawo. 7 Mas maayo kon hambalan ka sang hari nga magpungko didto sang sa hambalan ka niya nga maghalin, kag mahuy-an ka sa atubangan sang dungganon nga mga tawo.
8 Indi ka magpadasodaso sa pagsugid sa korte sang imo nakita. Kay kon mapamatud-an sang isa ka saksi nga sala ikaw, ano na lang ang imo himuon?
9 Kon may ginabaisan kamo sang imo kilala, baisi lang ninyo, pero indi ninyo pag-ipanugid ang sekreto sang kada isa sa inyo. 10 Kay kon mahibaluan ini sang iban, basi pakahuy-an nila kamo, kag ang inyo reputasyon maguba hasta san-o.
11 Kon ang imo ginahambal nagakabagay sa okasyon, matahom ini pareho sa bulawan nga mga mansanas sa pilak nga suludlan.
12 Ang pagsabdong sang maalamon nga tawo sa isa ka tawo nga luyag magpamati mas bilidhon pa sang sa mga alahas nga bulawan.
13 Ang masaligan nga mensahero makapanami sang balatyagon sang nagsugo sa iya, pareho sa mabugnaw nga tubig kon tig-ilinit.
14 Ang tawo nga wala nagatuman sa iya promisa pareho sa gal-om kag hangin nga wala nagadala sang ulan.
15 Ang pagpasensya kag ang malulo nga paghambal makahaylo sa mga manugdumala kag bisan sa mga matig-a sang tagipusuon.
16 Indi ka magpatama sing kaon sang dugos kay basi kon magsululuka ka. 17 Pareho man kon magsagi ka bisita sa imo kaingod, basi kon matak-an siya kag maugot sa imo.
18 Ang tawo nga nagasaksi sing butig kontra sa iya isigkatawo makahalit pareho sa espada, inuglampos, kag pana.
19 Ang pagsalig sa tawo nga indi masaligan sa tion sang kalisod wala sing pulos pareho sa guba nga ngipon ukon bali nga tiil.
20 Kon ginakantahan mo sing malipayon ang tawo nga ara sa puwerte nga kalisod, pareho lang nga ginaubahan mo siya sang bayo sa panahon sang tigtulugnaw ukon ginabutangan mo sang langgaw ang iya pilas.
21 Kon ang imo kaaway ginagutom, pakauna; kon ginauhaw, paimna. 22 Kay kon himuon mo ini mahuya siya sa iya ginahimo sa imo,[b] kag ang Ginoo magabalos sa imo.
23 Subong nga ang habagat nagadala sang ulan, ang kutsokutso nagadala sang kaakig.
24 Mas maayo pa nga mag-estar sa atop sang balay[c] sang sa mag-estar sa sulod sang balay upod sa asawa nga palaaway.
25 Ang maayong balita halin sa malayo nga lugar pareho sa mabugnaw nga tubig nga makapaumpaw sa tawo nga ginauhaw.
26 Ang matarong nga tawo nga nagapasugot sa malaot nga tawo pareho sa malubog nga tuburan ukon mahigko nga bubon.
27 Indi maayo ang sobra nga pagkaon sang dugos, amo man ang pagtinguha nga dayawon ka lang permi sang mga tawo.
28 Ang tawo nga indi makapugong sang iya kaugalingon dali lang malaglag pareho sa isa ka siyudad nga wala sing pader.

More Proverbs of Solomon
25 These are more proverbs(A) of Solomon, compiled by the men of Hezekiah king of Judah:(B)
2 It is the glory of God to conceal a matter;
to search out a matter is the glory of kings.(C)
3 As the heavens are high and the earth is deep,
so the hearts of kings are unsearchable.
4 Remove the dross from the silver,
and a silversmith can produce a vessel;
5 remove wicked officials from the king’s presence,(D)
and his throne will be established(E) through righteousness.(F)
6 Do not exalt yourself in the king’s presence,
and do not claim a place among his great men;
7 it is better for him to say to you, “Come up here,”(G)
than for him to humiliate you before his nobles.
What you have seen with your eyes
8 do not bring[a] hastily to court,
for what will you do in the end
if your neighbor puts you to shame?(H)
9 If you take your neighbor to court,
do not betray another’s confidence,
10 or the one who hears it may shame you
and the charge against you will stand.
11 Like apples[b] of gold in settings of silver(I)
is a ruling rightly given.
12 Like an earring of gold or an ornament of fine gold
is the rebuke of a wise judge to a listening ear.(J)
13 Like a snow-cooled drink at harvest time
is a trustworthy messenger to the one who sends him;
he refreshes the spirit of his master.(K)
14 Like clouds and wind without rain
is one who boasts of gifts never given.
16 If you find honey, eat just enough—
too much of it, and you will vomit.(N)
17 Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house—
too much of you, and they will hate you.
18 Like a club or a sword or a sharp arrow
is one who gives false testimony against a neighbor.(O)
19 Like a broken tooth or a lame foot
is reliance on the unfaithful in a time of trouble.
20 Like one who takes away a garment on a cold day,
or like vinegar poured on a wound,
is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat;
if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.
22 In doing this, you will heap burning coals(P) on his head,
and the Lord will reward you.(Q)
23 Like a north wind that brings unexpected rain
is a sly tongue—which provokes a horrified look.
24 Better to live on a corner of the roof
than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.(R)
25 Like cold water to a weary soul
is good news from a distant land.(S)
26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted well
are the righteous who give way to the wicked.
27 It is not good to eat too much honey,(T)
nor is it honorable to search out matters that are too deep.(U)
28 Like a city whose walls are broken through
is a person who lacks self-control.

Further Wise Sayings of Solomon
25 These(A) also are proverbs of Solomon which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied:
2 (B)It is the glory of God to conceal a matter,
But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.
3 As the heavens for height and the earth for depth,
So the heart of kings is unsearchable.
4 (C)Take away the dross from silver,
And it will go to the silversmith for jewelry.
5 Take away the wicked from before the king,
And his throne will be established in (D)righteousness.
6 Do not exalt yourself in the presence of the king,
And do not stand in the place of the great;
7 (E)For it is better that he say to you,
“Come up here,”
Than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince,
Whom your eyes have seen.
8 (F)Do not go hastily to [a]court;
For what will you do in the end,
When your neighbor has put you to shame?
9 (G)Debate your case with your neighbor,
And do not disclose the secret to another;
10 Lest he who hears it expose your shame,
And [b]your reputation be ruined.
11 A word fitly (H)spoken is like apples of gold
In settings of silver.
12 Like an earring of gold and an ornament of fine gold
Is a wise rebuker to an obedient ear.
13 (I)Like the cold of snow in time of harvest
Is a faithful messenger to those who send him,
For he refreshes the soul of his masters.
15 (L)By long forbearance a ruler is persuaded,
And a gentle tongue breaks a bone.
16 Have you found honey?
Eat only as much as you need,
Lest you be filled with it and vomit.
17 Seldom set foot in your neighbor’s house,
Lest he become weary of you and hate you.
18 (M)A man who bears false witness against his neighbor
Is like a club, a sword, and a sharp arrow.
19 Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble
Is like a bad tooth and a foot out of joint.
20 Like one who takes away a garment in cold weather,
And like vinegar on soda,
Is one who (N)sings songs to a heavy heart.
21 (O)If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat;
And if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22 For so you will heap coals of fire on his head,
(P)And the Lord will reward you.
23 The north wind brings forth rain,
And (Q)a backbiting tongue an angry countenance.
24 (R)It is better to dwell in a corner of a housetop,
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
25 As cold water to a weary soul,
So is (S)good news from a far country.
26 A righteous man who falters before the wicked
Is like a murky spring and a [c]polluted well.
27 It is not good to eat much honey;
So (T)to seek one’s own glory is not glory.
28 (U)Whoever has no rule over his own spirit
Is like a city broken down, without walls.
