Douai-Rheims Peshitta ܦܫܝܼܛܬܵܐ
1 He that sheweth mercy, lendeth to his neighbour: and he that is stronger in hand, keepeth the commandments.1 ܪ̇ܡܐ ܚܘ̈ܒܠܐ ܛܒ̈ܐ ܡ̇ܢ ܕܡܘܙܦ ܠܚܒܪܗ ܘܕܐ̇ܚܕ ܒܐܝܕܐ ܢ̇ܛܪ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܗܘ
2 Lend to thy neighbour in the time of his need, and pay thou thy neighbour again in due time.2 ܐܘܙܦ ܠܚܒܪܟ ܒܥܕܢܐ ܕܨܪܝܟܘܬܗ ܘܐܬܟܠ ܚܒܪܟ ܘܒܥܕܢ ܙܒܢܐ ܐܫܪ ܡܠܬܟ
3 Reap thy word, and deal faithfully with him: and thou shalt always find that which is necessary for thee.3 ܘܐܩܝܡ ܡܠܬܟ ܘܐܬܩܝܡ ܥܡ ܚܒܪܟ ܘܒܟܠ ܥܕܢ ܬܫܟܚ ܨܒܝܢܟ ܡܢܗ
4 Many have looked upon a thing lent as a thing found, and have given trouble to them that helped them.4 ܣܓ̈ܝܐܐ ܓܝܪ ܝܙܘ̈ܦܐ ܕܒܥܘ ܝܙܦܬܐ ܘܐܗܪܘ ܠܡܘܙ̈ܦܢܝܗܘܢ
5 Till they receive, they kiss the hands of the lender, and in promises they humble their voice:5 ܒܥܕܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܝ̇ܙܦ ܢ̇ܫܩ ܐܝܕܗ ܕܡܘܙܦܢܐ ܘܥܠ ܢܟܣ̈ܐ ܕܚܒܪܗ ܡܪܝܡ ܩܠܗ ܘܒܥܕܢܐ ܕܡܝܬܐ ܝܙܦܬܐ ܡܦܝܚ ܢܦܫܗ ܘܠܙܒܢܐ ܣܓܝܐܐ ܝܗ̇ܒ ܠܗ̇
6 But when they should repay, they will ask time, and will return tedious and murmuring words, and will complain of the time:6 ܕܐܢ ܢܫܟܚ ܢܬܦܪܥ ܦܠܓܐ ܘܚ̇ܫܒ ܠܗ̇ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܫܟܚܘ ܐܫܟܚܗ̇ ܣ̈ܠܩܢ ܐܝ̈ܕܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܢܟܣ̈ܘܗܝ ܣܪܝܩܐܝܬ ܘܩ̇ܢܐ ܠܗ ܣܢܐܐ ܘܐܫܬܘܦ ܕܝܢ ܡܓܢ ܡܨܘ̈ܬܐ ܘܨܘ̈ܚܝܬܐ ܦܪ̈ܥ ܠܗ ܘܚܠܦ ܐܝܩܪܐ ܨܥܪܐ
7 And if he be able to pay, he will stand off, he will scarce pay one half, and will count it as if he had found it:7 ܣܓܝܐ̈ܐ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܒܝܫܘܬܐ ܐܬܟܠܝܘ ܠܡܘܙܦܘ ܐܠܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܕܚܠܝܢ ܡܢ ܗܪܬܐ ܣܪܝܩܬܐ
8 But if not, he will defraud him of his money, and he shall get him for an enemy without cause:8 ܒܪܡ ܥܡ ܡܣܟܢܐ ܐܓܪ ܪܘܚܟ ܥܡܗ
9 And he will pay him with reproaches and curses, and instead of honour and good turn will repay him injuries.9 ܘܐܝܟ ܕܠܡܛܪ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܐܪܘܚܝܗܝ ܘܐܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܚܘܣܪܢܐ ܠܐ ܬܝܬܐ ܥܠ ܒܠܟ
10 Many have refused to lend, not out of wickedness, but they were afraid to be defrauded without cause.10 ܐܘܒܕ ܟܣܦܟ ܥܠ ܐܚܘܟ ܘܥܠ ܚܒܪܟ ܘܠܐ ܬܣܝܡܝܘܗܝ ܬܚܝܬ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܣܬܐ
11 But yet towards the poor be thou more hearty, and delay not to shew him mercy.11 ܣܝܡ ܠܟ ܣܝܡܬܐ ܒܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܘܒܚܘܒܐ ܘܗ̣ܝ ܛܒܐ ܠܟ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܡܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܟ
12 Help the poor because of the commandment: and send him not away empty handed because of his poverty.12 ܨܘܪ ܙܕܩܬܐ ܘܣܝܡ ܒܝܬ ܓܙܟ ܘܗ̣ܝ ܬܦܪܩܟ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܕܒܝܫ
13 Lose thy money for thy brother and thy friend: and hide it not under a stone to be lost.13 ܣܟܪ̈ܐ ܕܬܘܩܦܐ ܘܪܘܡܚܐ ܘܫܘܪܐ ܠܩܪܒܐ ܘܠܘܩܒܠ ܣܓܝܐ̈ܐ ܗ̣ܝ ܬܢܝܚܟ
14 Place thy treasure in the commandments of the most High, and it shall bring thee more profit than gold.14 ܓܒܪܐ ܛܒܐ ܡ̇ܢ ܕܥ̇ܪܒ ܠܚܒܪܗ ܘܡ̇ܢ ܕܡܘܒܕ ܒܗܬܬܐ ܥ̇ܪܩ ܡܢ ܥܪܒܗ
15 Shut up alms in the heart of the poor, and it shall obtain help for thee against all evil.
16 Better than the shield of the mighty, and better than the spear:16 ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܥ̇ܪܒܐ ܢܫܒܘܩ ܥ̇ܘܠܐ
17 It shall fight for thee against thy enemy.17 ܘܕܫܒ̇ܩ ܒܪܝܗ ܫܒ̇ܩ ܦܪܩܗ
18 A good man is surety for his neighbour: and he that hath lost shame, will leave him to himself.18 ܥܪܒܘܬܐ ܠܣܓ̈ܝܐܐ ܐܘܒܕܬ ܘܫܒܩܘ ܢܟܣ̈ܝܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܓ̈ܠܠܐ ܕܝܡܐ ܘܐܦ ܠܡܪ̈ܝ ܢܟܣ̈ܐ ܣܪܩܬ ܘܐܙܠܘ ܠܥܡܐ ܢܘܟܪܝܐ
19 Forget not the kindness of thy surety: for he hath given his life for thee.19 ܚܛܝܐ ܕܥ̇ܒܪ ܥܠ ܦܘ̈ܩܕܢܘܗܝ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܒܥܪܒܘܬܐ ܢܦ̇ܠ ܘܕܪܕܦ ܠܡܩܒܠܘ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܚܛܗ̈ܐ ܢ̇ܦܠ ܒܕܝܢܐ ܚܛܗ̈ܐ ܣܓܝܐ̈ܐ ܡܝܬܝܐ ܥܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܡܬܐܠܨ ܡܓܢ ܘܡܫܟܚ ܕܝܢܐ
20 The sinner and the unclean fleeth from his surety.20 ܥܪܘܒ ܠܚܒܪܟ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܡܨܐ ܐܢܬ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܘܦܨܐ ܢܦܫܟ ܡܢ ܐܥܦܐ
21 A sinner attributeth to himself the goods of his surety: and he that is of an unthankful mind will leave him that delivered him.21 ܪܝܫ ܚܝܘܗܝ ܕܒܪ ܐܢܫܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܘܡ̈ܝܐ ܘܬܟܣܝܬܐ ܘܒܝܬܐ ܡܟ̇ܣܐ ܨܥܪܐ
22 A man is surety for his neighbour: and when he hath lost all shame, he shall forsake him.22 ܛܒܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܚܝ̈ܘܗܝ ܕܡܣܟܢܐ ܬܚܝܬ ܛܠܠܐ ܕܩܪ̈ܝܬܗ̇ ܡܢ ܥܘܬܪܐ ܣܓܝܐܐ ܒܐܟܣܢܝܘܬܐ
23 Evil suretyship hath undone many of good estate, and hath tossed them as a wave of the sea.23 ܥܡ ܣ̇ܓܝ ܘܥܡ ܙܥܘܪ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܝܕ̇ܥ ܘܡܢܐ ܥ̇ܒܕ ܒܓܘ ܒܝܬܗ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܚ̇ܙܐ ܠܗ
24 It hath made powerful men to go from place to place round about, and they have wandered in strange countries.24 ܚ̈ܝܐ ܒܝ̈ܫܐ ܡܢ ܒܝ ܠܒܝ ܘܥܠ ܕܝ̈ܢܐ ܪ̈ܘܪܒܐ ܠܐ ܐܫܟܚ ܠܡܦܬܚ ܦܘܡܗ
25 A sinner that transgresseth the commandment of the Lord, shall fall into an evil suretyship: and he that undertaketh many things, shall fall into judgment.25 ܐܟܣܢܝܐ ܐܢܬ ܘܫ̇ܬܐ ܨܥܪܐ ܘܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ ܬܫܡܥ ܡܪ̈ܝܪܬܐ
26 Recover thy neighbour according to thy power, and take heed to thyself that thou fall not.26 ܐܟܣܢܝܐ ܐܢܬ ܥ̣ܒܪ ܬ̇ܩܢ ܦܬܘܪܐ ܘܠ̣ܥܣ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܝܬ ܒܐܝ̈ܕܝܟ
27 The chief thing for man's life is water and bread, and clothing, and a house to cover shame.27 ܦܘܩ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܐܝܩܪܐ ܐܪܚܐ ܓܝܪ ܥ̣ܪܨ ܥܠܝ
28 Better is the poor man's fare under a roof of boards, than sumptuous cheer abroad in another man's house.28 ܘܠܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܡܘܙܦ ܐܢܬ ܘܗܘ ܦ̇ܪܥ ܠܟ ܚܕ ܒܫܒܥܐ
29 Be contented with little instead of much, and thou shalt not hear the reproach of going abroad.
30 It is a miserable life to go as a guest from house to house: for where a man is a stranger, he shall not deal confidently, nor open his mouth.
31 He shall entertain and feed, and give drink to the unthankful, and moreover he shall hear bitter words.
32 Go, stranger, and furnish the table, and give others to eat what thou hast in thy hand.
33 Give place to the honourable presence of my friends: for I want my house, my brother being to be lodged with me.
34 These things are grievous to a man of understanding: the upbraiding of houseroom, and the reproaching of the lender.
