Priče Solomunove
Capitolo 28
1
Beže bezbožnici kad ih niko ne goni,
a pravednici su kao lavići bez straha.
2
Kad se u zemlji zla čine, nastaju joj mnogi knezovi;
ali kad se nađe čovek razuman i vešt, ostaje dugo.
3
Čovek siromah koji čini krivo ubogima
jeste kao silan dažd iza kog nestaje hleba.
4
Koji ostavljaju zakon, hvale bezbožnike;
a koji drže zakon, protive im se.
5
Zli ljudi ne razumeju šta je pravo;
a koji traže Gospoda, razumeju sve.
6
Bolji je siromah koji hodi u bezazlenosti svojoj
nego ko ide krivim putevima ako je i bogat.
7
Ko čuva zakon, sin je razuman;
a ko se druži s izjelicama, sramoti oca svog.
8
Ko umnožava dobro svoje ujmom i pridavkom,
sabira onome koji će razdavati siromasima.
9
Ko odvraća uho svoje da ne čuje zakon,
i molitva je njegova mrska.
10
Ko zavodi prave na zao put, pašće u jamu svoju,
a bezazleni naslediće dobro.
11
Bogat čovek misli da je mudar,
ali razuman siromah ispituje ga.
12
Kad se raduju pravedni, velika je slava;
a kad se podižu bezbožnici, traži se čovek.
13
Ko krije prestupe svoje, neće biti srećan;
a ko priznaje i ostavlja, dobiće milost.
14
Blago čoveku koji se svagda boji;
a ko je tvrdoglav, upada u zlo.
15
Bezbožnik koji vlada narodom siromašnim,
lav je koji riče i medved gladan.
16
Knez bez razuma čini mnogo nepravde,
a koji mrzi na lakomstvo, živeće dugo.
17
Čovek koji čini nasilje krvi ljudskoj,
bežaće do groba, a niko ga neće zadržati.
18
Ko hodi u bezazlenosti, spašće se;
a ko je opak na putevima, pašće u jedan mah.
19
Ko radi svoju zemlju, biće sit hleba;
a ko ide za besposlicama, nasitiće se sirotinje.
20
Čovek veran obiluje blagoslovima;
a ko nagli da se obogati, neće biti bez krivice.
21
Nije dobro gledati ko je ko,
jer za zalogaj hleba čovek će učiniti zlo.
22
Nagli da se obogati čovek zavidljiv,
a ne zna da će mu doći siromaštvo.
23
Ko ukorava čoveka naći će posle veću milost
nego koji laska jezikom.
24
Ko krade oca svog i mater svoju,
i govori: Nije greh,
on je drug krvniku.
25
Oholi zameće svađu;
a ko se uzda u Gospoda, izobilovaće.
26
Ko se uzda u svoje srce, bezuman je;
a ko hodi mudro, izbaviće se.
27
Ko daje siromahu, neće mu nedostajati;
a ko odvraća oči svoje, biće mu mnogo kletava.
28
Kad se podižu bezbožnici, sakriva se čovek;
a kad ginu, umnožavaju se pravedni.
Proverbs
Capitolo 28
1
The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.
2
For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged.
3
A poor man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.
4
They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.
5
Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things.
6
Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.
7
Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father.
8
He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.
9
He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.
10
Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.
11
The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.
12
When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden.
13
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.
14
Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
15
As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over the poor people.
16
The prince that wanteth understanding is also a great oppressor: but he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days.
17
A man that doeth violence to the blood of any person shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him.
18
Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.
19
He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough.
20
A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.
21
To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
22
He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.
23
He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue.
24
Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer.
25
He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.
26
He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.
27
He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
28
When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase.
