‏ Proverbs 20

1Divai en jajaro to kongʼo en koko;
ngʼat motelne kodgi onge rieko.

2Mirimb ruoth chalo gi ruto mar sibuor;
ngʼat momiyo obedo gi gero lalo ngimane.

3Enobed luor maduongʼ ne ngʼatno ma dagi dhawo,
to joma ofuwo duto ohero dhawo.

4Jasamuoyo ok pur puothe e kinde mowinjore;
omiyo e kinde mar keyo omanyo, to ok oyud gimoro.

5Dwaro mar chuny dhano chalo gi pi matut,
to ngʼat man-gi winjo twomogi.

6Ji mangʼeny wacho ni gin gihera ma adiera;
to ngʼat ma ja-adiera, en ngʼa ma diyude?

7Ngʼat makare nigi ngima ma ok ocha;
nyithinde nigi gweth bangʼe.

8Ka ruoth obedo e kome mondo ongʼad bura;
opiedho weche maricho duto gi wangʼe.

9En ngʼa manyalo wacho niya, “Aserito chunya maler;
aler kendo aonge richo?”

10Rapim ma ok nikare gi pimo ma ok kare,
Jehova Nyasaye mon kodgi duto.

11Kata mana nyathi ingʼeyo gi timbene,
omiyo ingʼeyo ka kite obidhore kata ni kare.

12It mawinjo gi wangʼ maneno,
Jehova Nyasaye ema osechweyo gik moko ariyogo.

13Kik iher nindo nono to ibiro bedo jachan,
bed kineno to ok ibi chando chiemo.

14Jangʼiewo wacho niya, “Ok ber ngangʼ, ok ber ngangʼ!”
To bangʼe owuok odhiyo ka osungore ni ongʼiewo gi nengo mayot.

15Dhahabu nitie, kendo kite ma nengogi tek bende nitie mogundho,
to dhok mawacho weche mag ngʼeyo gin kaka mula mabeyo mayudo tek.

16Kaw law ngʼat mochungʼne ngʼat mokia kaka singo;
mak gino mosingorego, ka otimo kamano ni dhako majabayo.

17Chiemo moyud e yo ma ok kare mit ne ngʼato,
to achien omuodore mana ka kuoyo.

18Los chenro ka ikonyori gi ngʼado rieko;
ka ichako lweny to dwar ikruok maber.

19Fuongʼo wach ketho genruok;
omiyo tangʼ ni ngʼato ma wuoyo mathoth.

20Ka ngʼato okwongʼo wuon mare kata min mare,
to ngimane norum mana ka taya motho e mudho molil.

21Mwandu moyud motelo e yo mayot
ok bi bedo konyruok e kinde machien.

22Kik iwach niya, “Abiro chulo kuor kuom rachni motimna!”
Bed kirito Jehova Nyasaye to obiro resi.

23Jehova Nyasaye mon gi rapim mag miriambo,
kendo rapim ma ok kare ok miye mor.

24Okange mag ngʼato ichiko gi Jehova Nyasaye.
Ere kaka ngʼato nyalo ngʼeyo yore owuon?

25En obadho ne ngʼato masingo gimoro ka ok oparo,
to achien eka oparo singruokne.

26Ruoth mariek riembo joma timbegi richo;
okumogi ma ok okechogi.

27Taya mar Jehova Nyasaye manyo chuny dhano,
kendo omanyo chunye ma iye.

28Hera kod adiera miyo ruoth bedo gi kwe,
nikech hera, lochne bedo motegno.

29Sunga ma yawuowi nigo e teko margi,
to lwar en duongʼ ne jodongo.

30Goch kod adhonde pwodho richo,
to chwat loso maler chuny maiye.
