| 1 Hear, O children, a father's instruction, be attentive, that you may gain understanding! | 1 Slušajte, djeco, pouku očevu i pazite kako biste spoznali mudrost, |
| 2 Yes, excellent advice I give you; my teaching do not forsake. | 2 jer dobar vam nauk dajem: ne prezrite moga naputka. |
| 3 When I was my father's child, frail, yet the darling of my mother, | 3 I ja sam bio sin u svoga oca i nježan jedinac u svoje matere; |
| 4 He taught me, and said to me: "Let your heart hold fast my words: keep my commands, that you may live! | 4 i mene je on učio i govorio mi: »Zadrži moje riječi u svojem srcu, poštuj moje zapovijedi i živjet ćeš. |
| 5 "Get wisdom, get understanding! Do not forget or turn aside from the words I utter. | 5 Steci mudrost, steci razbor, ne smeći ih s uma i ne odstupi od riječi mojih usta. |
| 6 Forsake her not, and she will preserve you; love her, and she will safeguard you; | 6 Ne ostavljaj je i čuvat će te; ljubi je i obranit će te. |
| 7 The beginning of wisdom is: get wisdom; at the cost of all you have, get understanding. | 7 Početak je mudrosti: steci sebi mudrost i svim svojim imanjem steci razboritost. |
| 8 Extol her, and she will exalt you; she will bring you honors if you embrace her; | 8 Veličaj je i uzvisit će te; donijet će ti čast kad je prigrliš. |
| 9 She will put on your head a graceful diadem; a glorious crown will she bestow on you." | 9 Stavit će ti ljupki vijenac na glavu i obdarit će te krasnom krunom.« |
| 10 Hear, my son, and receive my words, and the years of your life shall be many. | 10 Poslušaj, sine moj, primi moje riječi i umnožit će se godine tvojeg života. |
| 11 On the way of wisdom I direct you, I lead you on straightforward paths. | 11 Poučih te putu mudrosti, navratih te na prave staze; |
| 12 When you walk, your step will not be impeded, and should you run, you will not stumble. | 12 neće ti se zapletati koraci kad staneš hoditi; potrčiš li, nećeš posrnuti. |
| 13 Hold fast to instruction, never let her go; keep her, for she is your life. | 13 Čvrsto se drži pouke, ne puštaj je, čuvaj je, jer ona ti je život. |
| 14 The path of the wicked enter not, walk not on the way of evil men; | 14 Ne idi stazom opakih i ne stupaj putem zlikovaca. |
| 15 Shun it, cross it not, turn aside from it, and pass on. | 15 Ostavi ga, ne hodi njime; kloni ga se i zaobiđi ga. |
| 16 For they cannot rest unless they have done evil; to have made no one stumble steals away their sleep. | 16 Jer oni ne spavaju ako ne učine zla, i san im ne dolazi ako koga ne obore. |
| 17 For they eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence. | 17 Jer jedu kruh opačine i piju vino nasilja. |
| 18 But the path of the just is like shining light, that grows in brilliance till perfect day. | 18 A pravednička je staza kao svjetlost svanuća, koja je sve jasnija do potpunog dana. |
| 19 The way of the wicked is like darkness; they know not on what they stumble. | 19 A put je opakih kao mrkli mrak: ne znaju o što će se spotaknuti. |
| 20 My son, to my words be attentive, to my sayings incline your ear; | 20 Sine moj, pazi na moje riječi, prigni uho svoje mojim besjedama. |
| 21 Let them not slip out of your sight, keep them within your heart; | 21 Ne gubi ih nikad iz očiju, pohrani ih usred srca svoga. |
| 22 For they are life to those who find them, to man's whole being they are health. | 22 Jer su život onima koji ih nalaze i ozdravljenje svemu tijelu njihovu. |
| 23 With closest custody, guard your heart, for in it are the sources of life. | 23 A svrh svega, čuvaj svoje srce, jer iz njega izvire život. |
| 24 Put away from you dishonest talk, deceitful speech put far from you. | 24 Drži daleko od sebe lažna usta i udalji od sebe usne prijevarne. |
| 25 Let your eyes look straight ahead and your glance be directly forward. | 25 Nek’ tvoje oči gledaju u lice i neka ti je pogled uvijek prav. |
| 26 Survey the path for your feet, and let all your ways be sure. | 26 Pazi na stazu kojom kročiš i neka ti svi putovi budu pouzdani. |
| 27 Turn neither to right nor to left, keep your foot far from evil. | 27 Ne skreći ni desno ni lijevo, drži svoj korak daleko odà zla. |
