DK latinica Serbian Bible: Daničić–Karadžić (Latin script)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Čovek sprema srce, ali je od Gospoda šta će jezik govoriti.
1 The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from Yahweh.
2 Čoveku se svi putevi njegovi čine čisti, ali Gospod ispituje duhove.
2 All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes, but Yahweh weighs the motives.
3 Ostavi na Gospoda dela svoja, i biće tvrde namere tvoje.
3 Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed.
4 Gospod je stvorio sve sam za se, i bezbožnika za zli dan.
4 Yahweh has made everything for its own end— yes, even the wicked for the day of evil.
5 Mrzak je Gospodu ko je god ponositog srca, i neće ostati bez kara ako će i druge uzeti u pomoć.
5 Everyone who is proud in heart is an abomination to Yahweh; they shall certainly not be unpunished.
6 Milošću i istinom očišća se bezakonje, i strahom Gospodnjim uklanja se čovek oda zla.
6 By mercy and truth iniquity is atoned for. By the fear of Yahweh men depart from evil.
7 Kad su čiji putevi mili Gospodu, miri s njim i neprijatelje njegove.
7 When a man’s ways please Yahweh, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Bolje je malo s pravdom nego mnogo dohodaka s nepravdom.
8 Better is a little with righteousness, than great revenues with injustice.
9 Srce čovečije izmišlja sebi put, ali Gospod upravlja korake njegove.
9 A man’s heart plans his course, but Yahweh directs his steps.
10 Proroštvo je na usnama carevim, u sudu neće pogrešiti usta njegova.
10 Inspired judgments are on the lips of the king. He shall not betray his mouth.
11 Merila i potezi pravi od Gospoda su, i sve kamenje u tobocu njegovo je delo.
11 Honest balances and scales are Yahweh’s; all the weights in the bag are his work.
12 Gadno je carevima činiti nepravdu, jer se pravdom utvrđuje presto.
12 It is an abomination for kings to do wrong, for the throne is established by righteousness.
13 Mile su carevima usne pravedne, i oni ljube onog koji govori pravo.
13 Righteous lips are the delight of kings. They value one who speaks the truth.
14 Gnev je carev glasnik, ali mudar čovek ublažiće ga.
14 The king’s wrath is a messenger of death, but a wise man will pacify it.
15 U veselu je licu carevom život, i ljubav je njegova kao oblak s poznim daždem.
15 In the light of the king’s face is life. His favor is like a cloud of the spring rain.
16 Koliko je bolje teći mudrost nego zlato! I teći razum koliko je lepše nego srebro!
16 How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! Yes, to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
17 Put je pravednih uklanjanje oda zla; čuva dušu svoju ko pazi na put svoj.
17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil. He who keeps his way preserves his soul.
18 Oholost dolazi pred pogibao, i ponosit duh pred propast.
18 Pride goes before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.
19 Bolje je biti poniznog duha s krotkima nego deliti plen s oholima.
19 It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, than to divide the plunder with the proud.
20 Ko pazi na reč, nalazi dobro, i ko se uzda u Gospoda, blago njemu.
20 He who heeds the Word finds prosperity. Whoever trusts in Yahweh is blessed.
21 Ko je mudrog srca, zove se razuman, a slast na usnama umnožava nauku.
21 The wise in heart shall be called prudent. Pleasantness of the lips promotes instruction.
22 Izvor je životu razum onima koji ga imaju, a nauka bezumnih bezumlje je.
22 Understanding is a fountain of life to one who has it, but the punishment of fools is their folly.
23 Srce mudroga razumno upravlja ustima njegovim, i dodaje nauku usnama njegovim.
23 The heart of the wise instructs his mouth, and adds learning to his lips.
24 Ljubazne su reči saće meda, slast duši i zdravlje kostima.
24 Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
25 Neki se put čini čoveku prav, a kraj mu je put k smrti.
25 There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.
26 Ko se trudi sebi se trudi, jer ga nagone usta njegova.
26 The appetite of the laboring man labors for him, for his mouth urges him on.
27 Čovek nevaljao kopa zlo, i na usnama mu je kao oganj koji pali.
27 A worthless man devises mischief. His speech is like a scorching fire.
28 Opak čovek zameće svađu, i opadač rastavlja glavne prijatelje.
28 A perverse man stirs up strife. A whisperer separates close friends.
29 Nasilnik mami druga svog i zavodi ga na put koji nije dobar;
29 A man of violence entices his neighbor, and leads him in a way that is not good.
30 Namiguje očima, kad misli naopako; kad miče usnama, čini zlo.
30 One who winks his eyes to plot perversities, one who compresses his lips, is bent on evil.
31 Seda je kosa slavna kruna, nalazi se na putu pravednom.
31 Gray hair is a crown of glory. It is attained by a life of righteousness.
32 Bolji je spor na gnev nego junak, i gospodar od svog srca bolji je nego onaj koji uzme grad.
32 One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty; one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.
33 Ždreb se baca u krilo, ali je od Gospoda sve što izlazi.
33 The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from Yahweh.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

Lest then he repay them that recompense evil, he overcomes his anger rather than another man, being instructed too by those writings, wherein it is written, "Better is he that overcometh his anger, than he that taketh a city."
