Proverbs 9:12 - Bera saman allar útgáfur

Deildu

If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if you scoff, you alone will bear it.

If you become wise, you will be the one to benefit. If you scorn wisdom, you will be the one to suffer.

If you are wise, you are wise for your own benefit;  if you mock, you alone will bear the consequences.”

If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, And if you scoff, you will bear it alone.”

If you reason with an arrogant cynic, you’ll get slapped in the face; confront bad behavior and get a kick in the shins. So don’t waste your time on a scoffer; all you’ll get for your pains is abuse. But if you correct those who care about life, that’s different—they’ll love you for it! Save your breath for the wise—they’ll be wiser for it; tell good people what you know—they’ll profit from it. Skilled living gets its start in the Fear-of-GOD, insight into life from knowing a Holy God. It’s through me, Lady Wisdom, that your life deepens, and the years of your life ripen. Live wisely and wisdom will permeate your life; mock life and life will mock you.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, And if you scoff, you alone will suffer from it.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself [for your own benefit]; If you scoff [thoughtlessly ridicule and disdain], you alone will pay the penalty.

If you are wise, you are wise to your own advantage, but if you are a mocker, you alone must bear it.
