Pwovèb 14
Haitian Creole Version
14 ¶ Bon konprann yon fanm fè kay li mache byen. Men, yon fanm sòt ap kraze kay li ak pwòp men li.
2 ¶ Moun ki mache dwat, se yo ki gen krentif pou Seyè a. Men, moun k'ap mache kwochi pa pran Bondye pou anyen.
3 ¶ Pawòl nan bouch moun san konprann, se fwèt pou dèyè yo. Men, pawòl nan bouch moun ki gen bon konprann, se pwoteksyon yo.
4 ¶ Kote ki pa gen bèf pou rale chari pa gen rekòt. Lè bèt ou anfòm w'ap fè bon rekòt.
5 ¶ Yon bon temwen p'ap bay manti. Yon fo temwen p'ap di verite.
6 ¶ Moun ki gen lògèy plen kè yo, yo mèt chache konesans, yo p'ap janm jwenn li. Men, pou moun ki gen lespri, se bagay fasil.
7 ¶ Pa pwoche bò kote moun san konprann. Se pa anba bouch yo w'ap pran anyen.
8 ¶ Moun ki gen bon konprann konnen sa l'ap fè. Moun sòt mete nan tèt li li konnen, men se tèt li l'ap twonpe.
9 ¶ Moun sòt pran peche sèvi jwèt. Men, moun k'ap mache dwat pare pou rekonèt tò yo.
10 ¶ Lè ou nan lapenn, se ou ki konnen sa w'ap soufri. Konsa tou, lè kè ou kontan, pesonn pa ka kontan avè ou.
11 ¶ Fanmi mechan yo gen pou disparèt. Men, fanmi moun k'ap mache dwat yo gen pou devlope.
12 ¶ Chemen ou kwè ki bon an, se li ki mennen tou dwat nan lanmò.
13 ¶ Ou mèt ap ri, kè ou ka nan lapenn. Apre kontantman, se kè sere.
14 ¶ Moun k'ap fè sa ki mal ap jwenn sa l'ap chache a. Konsa tou, moun k'ap fè byen an ap jwenn rekonpans li.
15 ¶ Yon moun sòt ap kwè tou sa yo di l'. Men, moun ki gen konprann veye kote l'ap mete pye l'.
16 ¶ Moun ki gen bon konprann pran prekosyon yo, yo egzante malè. Moun sòt yo awogan, yo toujou konprann zafè yo bon.
17 ¶ Lè yon moun gen san wo, l'ap toujou fè betiz. Men, moun ki kalkile anvan ap toujou rete kè pòpòz.
18 ¶ Moun san konprann aji tankou moun fou. Men, rekonpans moun ki gen lespri se konesans.
19 ¶ Move moun gen pou wete chapo devan bon moun. Moun mechan gen pou bese tèt devan moun k'ap mache dwat yo.
20 ¶ Lè ou pòv, ou pa gen zanmi. Lè ou rich, ou plen zanmi.
21 ¶ Se yon peche ou fè lè ou meprize frè parèy ou. Men, ala bon sa bon pou moun ki gen pitye pou pòv malere!
22 ¶ Lè w'ap chache fè sa ki mal, ou pèdi chemen ou. Men, lè w'ap chache fè sa ki byen, moun ap toujou renmen ou, yo p'ap janm lage ou.
23 ¶ Travay, w'a jwenn tou sa ou bezwen. Rete chita ap pale anpil ap rann ou pòv.
24 ¶ Rekonpans moun ki gen konprann se konesans. Moun san konprann ap toujou aji tankou moun sòt.
25 ¶ Lè yon temwen di laverite, li sove lavi inonsan. Lè li bay manti, li twonpe jij yo.
26 ¶ Lè yon moun gen krentif pou Bondye, li gen kote pou l' apiye. Pitit li yo ap jwenn pwoteksyon bò kot Bondye.
27 Gen krentif pou Bondye, w'a gen lavi. Ou p'ap tonbe lè lavi ou an danje.
28 ¶ Tout pouvwa yon wa, se lè peyi l'ap kòmande a gen anpil moun. Men, lè pa gen moun nan peyi a, wa a pa vo anyen.
29 ¶ Moun ki pa fè kòlè fasil, se moun ki gen bon konprann. Men, moun ki gen san wo fè wè jan li sòt.
30 ¶ Lè ou gen kè ou poze, ou kenbe kò ou an sante. Men, anvye sò lòt moun se tankou yon maladi k'ap manje ou nan zo.
31 ¶ Lè w'ap peze pòv malere, se Bondye ki fè l' la w'ap derespekte. Men, lè ou aji byen ak pòv, se pi bèl sèvis ou ka rann Bondye.
32 ¶ Mechanste mechan an, se sa k'ap jete l' atè. Men, moun ki fè sa ki byen, y'ap pwoteje l' menm lè lavi l' an danje.
33 ¶ Moun ki gen konprann, se tout tan y'ap chache konnen. Men, moun sòt pa chache konnen anyen.
34 ¶ Lè gen jistis nan yon peyi, sa leve peyi a. Men, peche lenjistis se yon wont pou yon nasyon.
35 ¶ Wa a kontan lè moun k'ap travay avè l' yo fè travay yo byen. Men, l'ap move sou moun k'ap fè travay yo mal.
Proverbs 14
New International Version
Proverbs 14
New International Version
14 The wise woman builds her house,(A)
but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down.
2 Whoever fears the Lord walks uprightly,
but those who despise him are devious in their ways.
4 Where there are no oxen, the manger is empty,
but from the strength of an ox(D) come abundant harvests.
5 An honest witness does not deceive,
but a false witness pours out lies.(E)
6 The mocker seeks wisdom and finds none,
but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.(F)
7 Stay away from a fool,
for you will not find knowledge on their lips.
8 The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways,(G)
but the folly of fools is deception.(H)
9 Fools mock at making amends for sin,
but goodwill is found among the upright.
10 Each heart knows its own bitterness,
and no one else can share its joy.
13 Even in laughter(M) the heart may ache,
and rejoicing may end in grief.
15 The simple believe anything,
but the prudent give thought to their steps.(P)
17 A quick-tempered person(S) does foolish things,(T)
and the one who devises evil schemes is hated.(U)
18 The simple inherit folly,
but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
19 Evildoers will bow down in the presence of the good,
and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.(V)
20 The poor are shunned even by their neighbors,
but the rich have many friends.(W)
22 Do not those who plot evil go astray?(Z)
But those who plan what is good find[a] love and faithfulness.
23 All hard work brings a profit,
but mere talk leads only to poverty.
24 The wealth of the wise is their crown,
but the folly of fools yields folly.(AA)
25 A truthful witness saves lives,
but a false witness is deceitful.(AB)
26 Whoever fears the Lord has a secure fortress,(AC)
and for their children it will be a refuge.(AD)
28 A large population is a king’s glory,
but without subjects a prince is ruined.(AG)
29 Whoever is patient has great understanding,(AH)
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.(AI)
30 A heart at peace gives life to the body,
but envy rots the bones.(AJ)
31 Whoever oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker,(AK)
but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.(AL)
32 When calamity comes, the wicked are brought down,(AM)
but even in death the righteous seek refuge in God.(AN)
33 Wisdom reposes in the heart of the discerning(AO)
and even among fools she lets herself be known.[b]
34 Righteousness exalts a nation,(AP)
but sin condemns any people.
35 A king delights in a wise servant,
but a shameful servant arouses his fury.(AQ)
