Warnings and Instructions
1Orang fasik lari, walaupun tidak ada yang mengejarnya, tetapi orang benar merasa aman seperti singa muda. 2Karena pemberontakan negeri banyaklah penguasa-penguasanya, tetapi karena orang yang berpengertian dan berpengetahuan tetaplah hukum. 3Orang miskin yang menindas orang-orang yang lemah adalah seperti hujan deras, tetapi tidak memberi makanan. 4Orang yang mengabaikan hukum memuji orang fasik, tetapi orang yang berpegang pada hukum menentangnya.
1The wicked flee when no one is pursuing,
But the righteous are bold as a lion. 2Due to a wrongdoing of a land its leaders are many,
But by a person of understanding and knowledge, so it endures. 3A poor man who oppresses the helpless
Is like a driving rain which leaves no food. 4Those who abandon the Law praise the wicked,
But those who keep the Law strive against them.

5Orang yang jahat tidak mengerti keadilan, tetapi orang yang mencari TUHAN mengerti segala sesuatu. 6Lebih baik orang miskin yang bersih kelakuannya dari pada orang yang berliku-liku jalannya, sekalipun ia kaya. 7Orang yang memelihara hukum adalah anak yang berpengertian, tetapi orang yang bergaul dengan pelahap mempermalukan ayahnya. 8Orang yang memperbanyak hartanya dengan riba dan bunga uang, mengumpulkan itu untuk orang-orang yang mempunyai belas kasihan kepada orang-orang lemah. 9Siapa memalingkan telinganya untuk tidak mendengarkan hukum, juga doanya adalah kekejian. 10Siapa menyesatkan orang jujur ke jalan yang jahat akan jatuh ke dalam lobangnya sendiri, tetapi orang-orang yang tak bercela akan mewarisi kebahagiaan. 11Orang kaya menganggap dirinya bijak, tetapi orang miskin yang berpengertian mengenal dia. 12Jika orang benar menang, banyaklah pujian orang, tetapi jika orang fasik mendapat kekuasaan, orang menyembunyikan diri. 13Siapa menyembunyikan pelanggarannya tidak akan beruntung, tetapi siapa mengakuinya dan meninggalkannya akan disayangi. 14Berbahagialah orang yang senantiasa takut akan TUHAN, tetapi orang yang mengeraskan hatinya akan jatuh ke dalam malapetaka. 15Seperti singa yang meraung atau beruang yang menyerbu, demikianlah orang fasik yang memerintah rakyat yang lemah. 16Seorang pemimpin yang tidak mempunyai pengertian keras penindasannya, tetapi orang yang membenci laba yang tidak halal, memperpanjang umurnya.
5Evil people do not understand justice,
But those who seek the LORD understand everything. 6Better is a poor person who walks in his integrity,
Than a person who is crooked, though he is rich. 7He who keeps the Law is a discerning son,
But he who is a companion of gluttons humiliates his father. 8One who increases his wealth by interest of any kind,
Collects it for one who is gracious to the poor. 9One who turns his ear away from listening to the Law,
Even his prayer is an abomination. 10One who leads the upright astray in an evil way
Will himself fall into his own pit,
But the blameless will inherit good. 11The rich person is wise in his own eyes,
But the poor who has understanding sees through him. 12When the righteous triumph, there is great glory,
But when the wicked rise, people hide themselves. 13One who conceals his wrongdoings will not prosper,
But one who confesses and abandons them will find compassion. 14How blessed is the person who fears always,
But one who hardens his heart will fall into disaster. 15Like a roaring lion and a rushing bear
Is a wicked ruler over a poor people. 16A leader who is a great oppressor lacks understanding,
But a person who hates unjust gain will prolong his days.

17Orang yang menanggung darah orang lain akan lari sampai ke liang kubur. Janganlah engkau menahannya ! 18Siapa berlaku tidak bercela akan diselamatkan, tetapi siapa berliku-liku jalannya akan jatuh ke dalam lobang. 19Siapa mengerjakan tanahnya akan kenyang dengan makanan, tetapi siapa mengejar barang yang sia-sia akan kenyang dengan kemiskinan. 20Orang yang dapat dipercaya mendapat banyak berkat, tetapi orang yang ingin cepat menjadi kaya, tidak akan luput dari hukuman. 21Memandang bulu tidaklah baik, tetapi untuk sekerat roti orang membuat pelanggaran. 22Orang yang kikir tergesa-gesa mengejar harta, dan tidak mengetahui bahwa ia akan mengalami kekurangan. 23Siapa menegur orang akan kemudian lebih disayangi dari pada orang yang menjilat. 24Siapa merampasi ayah dan ibunya dan menyangka bahwa itu bukan suatu pelanggaran, ia sendiri adalah kawan si perusak. 25Orang yang loba, menimbulkan pertengkaran, tetapi siapa percaya kepada TUHAN, diberi kelimpahan. 26Siapa percaya kepada hatinya sendiri adalah orang bebal, tetapi siapa berlaku dengan bijak akan selamat. 27Siapa memberi kepada orang miskin tak akan berkekurangan, tetapi orang yang menutup matanya akan sangat dikutuki. 28Jika orang fasik mendapat kekuasaan, orang menyembunyikan diri, tetapi jika mereka binasa, bertambahlah jumlah orang benar.
17A person who is burdened with the guilt of human blood
Will be a fugitive until death; no one is to support him! 18One who walks blamelessly will receive help,
But one who is crooked will fall all at once. 19One who works his land will have plenty of food,
But one who follows empty pursuits will have plenty of poverty. 20A faithful person will abound with blessings,
But one who hurries to be rich will not go unpunished. 21To show partiality is not good,
Because for a piece of bread a man will do wrong. 22A person with an evil eye hurries after wealth
And does not know that poverty will come upon him. 23One who rebukes a person will afterward find more favor
Than one who flatters with the tongue. 24He who robs his father or his mother
And says, “There is no wrong done,”
Is the companion of a person who destroys. 25An arrogant person stirs up strife,
But one who trusts in the LORD will prosper. 26One who trusts in his own heart is a fool,
But one who walks wisely will flee to safety. 27One who gives to the poor will never lack anything,
But one who shuts his eyes will have many curses. 28When the wicked rise, people hide themselves;
But when they perish, the righteous increase.
