1 I ovo su priče Solomunove koje sabraše ljudi Jezekije cara Judinog.
1 TAMBIÉN estos son proverbios de Salomón, los cuales copiaron los varones de Ezechîas, rey de Judá.
1 These also are proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied out.
2 Slava je Božija skrivati stvar, a slava je carska istraživati stvar.
2 Gloria de Dios es encubrir la palabra; mas honra del rey es escudriñar la palabra.
2 It is the glory of God to conceal a thing, but the glory of kings is to search out a matter.
3 Visina nebu i dubina zemlji i srce carevima ne može se dosegnuti.
3 Para la altura de los cielos, y para la profundidad de la tierra, y para el corazón de los reyes, no hay investigación.
3 As the heavens for height, and the earth for depth, so the hearts of kings are unsearchable.
4 Uzmi od srebra trosku, i izaći će livcu zaklad.
4 Quita las escorias de la plata, y saldrá vaso al fundidor.
4 Take away the dross from the silver, and material comes out for the refiner.
5 Uzmi bezbožnika ispred cara, i utvrdiće se pravdom presto njegov.
5 Aparta al impío de la presencia del rey, y su trono se afirmará en justicia.
5 Take away the wicked from the king’s presence, and his throne will be established in righteousness.
6 Ne veličaj se pred carem i ne staj na mesto gde stoje vlastelji.
6 No te alabes delante del rey, ni estés en el lugar de los grandes:
6 Don’t exalt yourself in the presence of the king, or claim a place among great men;
7 Jer je bolje da ti se kaže: Hodi gore, nego da te ponize pred knezom da vidiš svojim očima.
7 Porque mejor es que se te diga, Sube acá, que no que seas humillado delante del príncipe que miraron tus ojos.
7 for it is better that it be said to you, “Come up here,” than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince, whom your eyes have seen.
8 Ne idi odmah da se preš, gledaj šta bi činio naposletku ako bi te osramotio bližnji tvoj.
8 No salgas á pleito presto, no sea que no sepas qué hacer al fin, después que tu prójimo te haya dejado confuso.
8 Don’t be hasty in bringing charges to court. What will you do in the end when your neighbor shames you?
9 Raspravi stvar svoju s bližnjim svojim, ali tuđe tajne ne otkrivaj,
9 Trata tu causa con tu compañero y no descubras el secreto á otro.
9 Debate your case with your neighbor, and don’t betray the confidence of another,
10 Da te ne bi psovao ko čuje, i sramota tvoja da ne bi ostala na tebi.
10 No sea que te deshonre el que lo oyere, y tu infamia no pueda repararse.
10 lest one who hears it put you to shame, and your bad reputation never depart.
11 Zlatne jabuke u srebrnim sudima jesu zgodne reči.
11 Manzana de oro con figuras de plata es la palabra dicha como conviene.
11 A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.
12 Zlatna je grivna i nakit od najboljeg zlata mudri karač onome koji sluša.
12 [Como] zarcillo de oro y joyel de oro fino, es el que reprende al sabio que tiene oído dócil.
12 As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover to an obedient ear.
13 Veran je poslanik kao studen snežna o žetvi onima koji ga pošalju, i rashlađuje dušu svojim gospodarima.
13 Como frío de nieve en tiempo de la siega, [así es] el mensajero fiel á los que lo envían: pues al alma de su señor da refrigerio.
13 As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to those who send him; for he refreshes the soul of his masters.
14 Ko se hvali darom lažnim, on je kao oblaci i vetar bez dažda.
14 [Como] nubes y vientos sin lluvia, [así es] el hombre que se jacta de vana liberalidad.
14 As clouds and wind without rain, so is he who boasts of gifts deceptively.
15 Strpljenjem se ublažava knez, i mek jezik lomi kosti.
15 Con larga paciencia se aplaca el príncipe; y la lengua blanda quebranta los huesos.
15 By patience a ruler is persuaded. A soft tongue breaks the bone.
16 Kad nađeš med, jedi koliko ti je dosta, da ne bi najedavši ga se izbljuvao ga.
16 ¿Hallaste la miel? come lo que te basta; no sea que te hartes de ella, y la vomites.
16 Have you found honey? Eat as much as is sufficient for you, lest you eat too much, and vomit it.
17 Retko neka ti noga stupa u kuću bližnjeg tvog, da ne bi nasitivši se tebe omrzao na te.
17 Detén tu pie de la casa de tu vecino, porque harto de ti no te aborrezca.
17 Let your foot be seldom in your neighbor’s house, lest he be weary of you, and hate you.
18 Ko god govori lažno svedočanstvo na bližnjeg svog, on je kao malj i mač i oštra strela.
18 Martillo y cuchillo y saeta aguda, es el hombre que habla contra su prójimo falso testimonio.
18 A man who gives false testimony against his neighbor is like a club, a sword, or a sharp arrow.
19 Uzdanje je u nevernika u nevolji zub slomljen i noga uganuta.
19 Diente quebrado y pie resbalador, es la confianza en el prevaricador en tiempo de angustia.
19 Confidence in someone unfaithful in time of trouble is like a bad tooth or a lame foot.
20 Ko peva pesme žalosnom srcu, on je kao onaj koji svlači haljinu na zimi, i kao ocat na salitru.
20 El que canta canciones al corazón afligido, [es como] el que quita la ropa en tiempo de frío, ó el que sobre el jabón [echa] vinagre.
20 As one who takes away a garment in cold weather, or vinegar on soda, so is one who sings songs to a heavy heart.
21 Ako je gladan nenavidnik tvoj, nahrani ga hleba, i ako je žedan napoj ga vode.
21 Si el que te aborrece tuviere hambre, dale de comer pan; y si tuviere sed, dale de beber agua:
21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat. If he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22 Jer ćeš živo ugljevlje zgrnuti na glavu njegovu, i Gospod će ti platiti.
22 Porque ascuas allegas sobre su cabeza, y Jehová te lo pagará.
22 for you will heap coals of fire on his head, and Yahweh will reward you.
23 Severni vetar nosi dažd, a potajni jezik lice srdito.
23 El viento del norte ahuyenta la lluvia, y el rostro airado la lengua detractora.
23 The north wind produces rain; so a backbiting tongue brings an angry face.
24 Bolje je sedeti u uglu od krova nego sa ženom svadljivom u kući zajedničkoj.
24 Mejor es estar en un rincón de casa, que con la mujer rencillosa en espaciosa casa.
24 It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop than to share a house with a contentious woman.
25 Dobar je glas iz daleke zemlje kao studena voda žednoj duši.
25 [Como] el agua fría al alma sedienta, así son las buenas nuevas de lejanas tierras.
25 Like cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
26 Pravednik koji pada pred bezbožnikom jeste kao izvor nogama zamućen i kao studenac pokvaren.
26 [Como] fuente turbia y manantial corrompido, [es] el justo que cae delante del impío.
26 Like a muddied spring and a polluted well, so is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked.
27 Jesti mnogo meda nije dobro, i istraživati slavu nije slavno.
27 Comer mucha miel no es bueno: ni el buscar la propia gloria es gloria.
27 It is not good to eat much honey, nor is it honorable to seek one’s own honor.
28 Ko nema vlasti nad duhom svojim, on je grad razvaljen bez zidova.
28 [Como] ciudad derribada y sin muro, es el hombre cuyo espíritu no tiene rienda.
28 Like a city that is broken down and without walls is a man whose spirit is without restraint.

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).
… that the enemy should not know when we do our alms, how shall we do with the enemy himself so as to fulfil that precept, "If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink"?
