Proverbs 13

A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

اَلابْنُ الْحَكِيمُ يَقْبَلُ تَأْدِيبَ أَبِيهِ، وَالْمُسْتَهْزِئُ لاَ يَسْمَعُ انْتِهَارًا.

A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence.

مِنْ ثَمَرَةِ فَمِهِ يَأْكُلُ الإِنْسَانُ خَيْرًا، وَمَرَامُ الْغَادِرِينَ ظُلْمٌ.

He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

مَنْ يَحْفَظُ فَمَهُ يَحْفَظُ نَفْسَهُ. مَنْ يَشْحَرْ شَفَتَيْهِ فَلَهُ هَلاَكٌ.

The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

نَفْسُ الْكَسْلاَنِ تَشْتَهِي وَلاَ شَيْءَ لَهَا، وَنَفْسُ الْمُجْتَهِدِينَ تَسْمَنُ.

A righteous man hateth lying: but a wicked man is loathsome, and cometh to shame.

اَلصِّدِّيقُ يُبْغِضُ كَلاَمَ كَذِبٍ، وَالشِّرِّيرُ يُخْزِي وَيُخْجِلُ.

Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

اَلْبِرُّ يَحْفَظُ الْكَامِلَ طَرِيقَهُ، وَالشَّرُّ يَقْلِبُ الْخَاطِئَ.

There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.

يُوجَدُ مَنْ يَتَغَانَى وَلاَ شَيْءَ عِنْدَهُ، وَمَنْ يَتَفَاقَرُ وَعِنْدَهُ غِنًى جَزِيلٌ.

The ransom of a man's life are his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke.

فِدْيَةُ نَفْسِ رَجُل غِنَاهُ، أَمَّا الْفَقِيرُ فَلاَ يَسْمَعُ انْتِهَارًا.

The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.

نُورُ الصِّدِّيقِينَ يُفَرِّحُ، وَسِرَاجُ الأَشْرَارِ يَنْطَفِئُ.

Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.

اَلْخِصَامُ إِنَّمَا يَصِيرُ بِالْكِبْرِيَاءِ، وَمَعَ الْمُتَشَاوِرِينَ حِكْمَةٌ.

Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.

غِنَى الْبُطْلِ يَقِلُّ، وَالْجَامِعُ بِيَدِهِ يَزْدَادُ.

Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

الرَّجَاءُ الْمُمَاطَلُ يُمْرِضُ الْقَلْبَ، وَالشَّهْوَةُ الْمُتَمَّمَةُ شَجَرَةُ حَيَاةٍ.

Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.

مَنِ ازْدَرَى بِالْكَلِمَةِ يُخْرِبُ نَفْسَهُ، وَمَنْ خَشِيَ الْوَصِيَّةَ يُكَافَأُ.

The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

شَرِيعَةُ الْحَكِيمِ يَنْبُوعُ حَيَاةٍ لِلْحَيَدَانِ عَنْ أَشْرَاكِ الْمَوْتِ.

Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard.

اَلْفِطْنَةُ الْجَيِّدَةُ تَمْنَحُ نِعْمَةً، أَمَّا طَرِيقُ الْغَادِرِينَ فَأَوْعَرُ.

Every prudent man dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open his folly.

كُلُّ ذَكِيٍّ يَعْمَلُ بِالْمَعْرِفَةِ، وَالْجَاهِلُ يَنْشُرُ حُمْقًا.

A wicked messenger falleth into mischief: but a faithful ambassador is health.

اَلرَّسُولُ الشِّرِّيرُ يَقَعُ فِي الشَّرِّ، وَالسَّفِيرُ الأَمِينُ شِفَاءٌ.

Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.

فَقْرٌ وَهَوَانٌ لِمَنْ يَرْفُضُ التَّأْدِيبَ، وَمَنْ يُلاَحِظ التَّوْبِيخَ يُكْرَمُ.

The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul: but it is abomination to fools to depart from evil.

اَلشَّهْوَةُ الْحَاصِلَةُ تَلُذُّ النَّفْسَ، أَمَّا كَرَاهَةُ الْجُهَّالِ فَهِيَ الْحَيَدَانُ عَنِ الشَّرِّ.

He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

اَلْمُسَايِرُ الْحُكَمَاءَ يَصِيرُ حَكِيمًا، وَرَفِيقُ الْجُهَّالِ يُضَرُّ.

Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repayed.

اَلشَّرُّ يَتْبَعُ الْخَاطِئِينَ، وَالصِّدِّيقُونَ يُجَازَوْنَ خَيْرًا.

A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

اَلصَّالِحُ يُورِثُ بَنِي الْبَنِينَ، وَثَرْوَةُ الْخَاطِئِ تُذْخَرُ لِلصِّدِّيقِ.

Much food is in the tillage of the poor: but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment.

فِي حَرْثِ الْفُقَرَاءِ طَعَامٌ كَثِيرٌ، وَيُوجَدُ هَالِكٌ مِنْ عَدَمِ الْحَقِّ.

He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

مَنْ يَمْنَعُ عَصَاهُ يَمْقُتِ ابْنَهُ، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّهُ يَطْلُبُ لَهُ التَّأْدِيبَ.

The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want.

اَلصِّدِّيقُ يَأْكُلُ لِشَبَعِ نَفْسِهِ، أَمَّا بَطْنُ الأَشْرَارِ فَيَحْتَاجُ.
