Proverbs 21

Rano velona eo an-tànan'i Jehovah ny fon'ny mpanjaka, Ka tarihiny amin'izay tiany.

The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.

Ataon'ny olona ho marina avokoa ny lalana rehetra alehany; Fa Jehovah ihany no Mpandanja ny fo.

Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.

Ny hanao izay marina sy mahitsy No sitrak'i Jehovah mihoatra noho ny fanatitra alatsa-drà.

To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice.

Ny fiandranandran'ny maso sy ny fiavonavon'ny fo Izay jiron'ny ratsy fanahy dia ota.

An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin.

Ny hevitry ny mazoto dia mampanan-karena; Fa ny maimaika rehetra dia halahelo ihany.

The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.

Ny fahazoan-karena amin'ny lela mandainga Dia fofonaina mihelina ho an'izay mitady fahafatesana.

The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.

Ny fitohatohan'ny ratsy fanahy hamongotra azy, Satria mandà tsy hanao izay marina izy.

The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.

Miolikolika ny lalan'ny mavesa-keloka; Fa mahitsy ny ataon'ny madio.

The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.

Aleo mitoetra eo an-joron'ny tampon-trano Toy izay hiray trano amin'ny vehivavy tia ady.

It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.

Ny fanahin'ny ratsy fanahy maniry ny ratsy, Ka na dia ny havany aza tsy mahita fitia eo imasony.

The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes.

Raha ampijalina ny mpaniratsira, dia ho hendry ny kely saina; Ary raha toroan-kevitra ny hendry, dia hahazo fahalalana izy.

When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.

Ny Iray Marina no mandinika ny tranon'ny ratsy fanahy Ka mamarina azy ho amin'ny loza.

The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.

Izay manentsin-tadiny amin'ny fitarainan'ny malahelo, Dia mba hitaraina kosa izy, fa tsy hohenoina.

Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard.

Ny fanomezana mangingina mampionona ny fahatezerana, Ary ny kolikoly amin'ny takona mampitsahatra ny fahavinirana mafy.

A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath.

Fifalian'ny marina ny hanao araka ny rariny; Fa zava-mahatahotra ny mpanao ratsy kosa izany.

It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

Ny olona izay mivily miala amin'ny lalan'ny fahendrena Dia hitoetra ao amin'ny fivorian'ny fanahin'ny maty.

The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead.

Izay tia fanaranam-po dia olona halahelo, Eny, izay tia divay sy diloilo tsy mba hanan-karena.

He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich.

Ny ratsy fanahy dia ho avotry ny marina, Ary ny mpivadika ho solon'ny mahitsy.

The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright.

Aleo mitoetra any an-efitra Toy izay amin'ny vehivavy tia ady sady foizina.

It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.

Harena mahafinaritra sy diloilo no ao amin'ny tranon'ny hendry; Fa ny adala mandany azy.

There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up.

Izay fatra-panaraka fahamarinana sy famindram-po Dia hahazo fiainana sy fahamarinana ary voninahitra.

He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour.

Ny hendry mananika ny vohitry ny mahery Ka mandrodana ny fiarovana mafy izay itokiany.

A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.

Izay miambina ny vavany sy ny lelany Dia miaro ny fanahiny tsy ho azom-pahoriana.

Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.

Izay mirehareha sy miavonavona no atao hoe mpaniratsira, Dia izay olona fatra-piavonavona.

Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.

Ny fanirian'ny malaina hahafaty azy, Satria ny tànany tsy mety miasa tsinona;

The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour.

Maniry fatratra mandritra ny andro izy; Fa ny marina kosa manome ka tsy mba mahihitra.

He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not.

Ny fanatitry ny ratsy fanahy dia fahavetavetana, Ka indrindra raha amin'ny sain-dratsy no itondrany azy.

The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind?

Ho faty ny vavolombelona mandainga; Fa izay mihaino dia hiteny mandrakariva.

A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly.

Ny ratsy fanahy mampiseho ny fahasahisahiany amin'ny tarehiny; Fa ny marina kosa dia mihevitra izay halehany.

A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his way.

Tsy misy fahendrena, na fahalalana, Na fisainana mahaleo an'i Jehovah.

There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.

Voaomana ny soavaly ho amin'ny andro iadiana; Fa an'i Jehovah ihany ny fandresena.

The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.
