Pwovèb 13
Haitian Creole Version
13 ¶ Yon pitit gason ki gen bon konprann ap koute lè papa l' ap rale zòrèy li. Men, moun k'ap pase moun nan betiz p'ap janm koute lè y'ap fè l' obsèvasyon pou korije l'.
2 ¶ Rekonpans yon moun chita sou sa li di ak bouch li. Men, moun ki ipokrit renmen fè mechanste.
3 ¶ Veye pawòl ki soti nan bouch ou, w'a pwoteje lavi ou. Moun k'ap prese louvri bouch yo pale ap detwi pwòp tèt yo.
4 ¶ Parese p'ap janm jwenn sa yo ta renmen genyen. Men, moun k'ap travay di ap jwenn tou sa yo ta renmen genyen.
5 ¶ Moun k'ap mache dwat pa vle wè moun k'ap bay manti. Men, sa mechan yo ap fè a se yon wont, se yon dezonè pou tèt yo.
6 ¶ Lè ou toujou fè sa ki byen, lajistis ap pwoteje ou. Men, peche lakòz mechan yo disparèt.
7 ¶ Gen moun ki pa gen anyen men ki pran pòz moun rich yo. Gen moun ki pran pòz moun pòv yo, epi se yo ki gen fòtin.
8 ¶ Yon moun rich sèvi ak lajan l' pou l' sove lavi l'. Moun ki pòv pa vle tande lè w'ap rele dèyè l'.
9 ¶ Moun k'ap mache dwat yo tankou lanp k'ap klere byen klere. Men, mechan yo tankou yon lanp ki prèt pou mouri.
10 ¶ Moun awogan yo toujou ap pouse dife. Men, moun ki koute konsèy, se moun ki gen bon konprann.
11 ¶ Lajan ou fè fasil pa lwen fini. Lajan ou fè nan di ap toujou fè pitit.
12 ¶ Lè ou pa jwenn sa ou t'ap tann lan, se bagay ki pou fè ou malad. Men, lè ou jwenn sa ou te anvi a, se lavi pou ou.
13 ¶ Lè ou pa respekte pawòl ki nan lalwa Bondye a, se dèt ou fè. Men, moun ki fè sa lalwa mande yo fè a ap jwenn rekonpans yo.
14 ¶ Sa moun ki gen bon konprann ap moutre a bay lavi. L'ap ede ou pou ou pa tonbe lè lavi ou an danje.
15 ¶ Lè ou gen bon konprann, sa fè moun renmen ou. Men, lè moun pa ka fè ou konfyans, ou nan di.
16 ¶ Tout moun ki gen konprann kalkile byen anvan yo fè yon bagay. Men, moun san konprann yo ap fè ou wè jan yo sòt.
17 ¶ Yon move komisyonè ap mete moun nan ka. Men, yon komisyonè serye ap bay moun kè poze.
18 ¶ Yon moun ki refize aprann ap toujou pòv, l'ap toujou wont. Men, y'ap respekte moun ki koute lè yo rale zòrèy yo.
19 ¶ Ala bon sa bon lè ou jwenn sa ou te anvi a! Moun san konprann derefize kite move chemen yo pran an.
20 ¶ Fè zanmi ak moun ki gen konesans, ou menm tou w'a vin gen konesans. Fè zanmi ak moun ki san konprann, ou nan pwoblèm.
21 ¶ Malè ap pousib moun k'ap fè sa ki mal. Men, moun ki mache dwat ap jwenn bon rekonpans.
22 ¶ Yon moun ki gen bon kè ap kite byen pou pitit pitit li. Men, richès moun k'ap fè sa ki mal, se moun ki mache dwat yo k'ap jwi li.
23 ¶ Jaden malere bay kont manje. Men, lenjistis fè l' mouri grangou.
24 ¶ Si ou pè bat pitit gason ou, ou pa renmen l'. Si ou renmen l', se pou ou korije l'.
25 ¶ Moun k'ap mache dwat toujou gen ase pou yo manje. Men, vant mechan yo pa janm plen.
Proverbs 13
New International Version
Proverbs 13
New International Version
13 A wise son heeds his father’s instruction,
but a mocker does not respond to rebukes.(A)
2 From the fruit of their lips people enjoy good things,(B)
but the unfaithful have an appetite for violence.
3 Those who guard their lips(C) preserve their lives,(D)
but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.(E)
4 A sluggard’s appetite is never filled,(F)
but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.
5 The righteous hate what is false,(G)
but the wicked make themselves a stench
and bring shame on themselves.
6 Righteousness guards the person of integrity,
but wickedness overthrows the sinner.(H)
7 One person pretends to be rich, yet has nothing;(I)
another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.(J)
8 A person’s riches may ransom their life,
but the poor cannot respond to threatening rebukes.(K)
9 The light of the righteous shines brightly,
but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out.(L)
10 Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice.(M)
11 Dishonest money dwindles away,(N)
but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.
12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick,
but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.(O)
15 Good judgment wins favor,
but the way of the unfaithful leads to their destruction.[a]
18 Whoever disregards discipline comes to poverty and shame,(Y)
but whoever heeds correction is honored.(Z)
19 A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul,(AA)
but fools detest turning from evil.
20 Walk with the wise and become wise,
for a companion of fools suffers harm.(AB)
22 A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children,
but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous.(AF)
23 An unplowed field produces food for the poor,
but injustice sweeps it away.
24 Whoever spares the rod(AG) hates their children,
but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline(AH) them.(AI)
25 The righteous eat to their hearts’ content,
but the stomach of the wicked goes hungry.(AJ)
