Catholic Public Domain Bible	Hrvatska Biblija
¹ Because of need, many have sinned. And whoever seeks to be enriched, averts his eye.	¹ Radi probitka mnogi griješe, i tko traži bogatstvo, biva nemilosrdan.
² Like a post fixed in the middle of adjoining stones, so also will sin become wedged between selling and buying.	² Kolac se zabija između dva kamena, a grijeh se utiskuje između kupnje i prodaje.
³ Sin will be crushed with the one who sins.	³ Tko se čvrsto ne drži straha Gospodnjeg, kuća će mu brzo propasti.
⁴ If you do not hold yourself steadfastly to the fear of the Lord, your house will be quickly overthrown.	⁴ Kad se sito trese, mekinje ostaju: tako i nedostaci čovjekovi izbijaju u govoru njegovu.
⁵ Just as the dust remains when one shakes a sieve, so will the doubt of a man remain in his thoughts.	⁵ Lončareve posude peć iskušava, a čovjeka njegov govor.
⁶ The furnace tests the potter’s vessels, and the trial of the tribulation tests just men.	⁶ Obradu voćke očituje njezin plod: tako i riječi čovjekove otkrivaju njegove osjećaje.
⁷ As the pruning of a tree reveals its fruit, so does a word reveal the thoughts in the heart of a man.	⁷ Nikoga ne hvali prije no što progovori, jer govor je kušnja ljudi.
⁸ You should not praise a man before he speaks; for such is the testing of men.	⁸ Ako težiš pravdi, naći ćeš je i obući ćeš je kao svečanu odoru.
⁹ If you pursue justice, you will obtain it. And you will be clothed with justice, as with a long robe of honor. And you will live with justice. And justice will protect you continually. And on the day of reckoning, you will find a strong foundation.	⁹ Ptice se jate sa sebi sličnima, i pravica se svraća onima koji je vrše.
¹⁰ Birds flock to their own kind. And truth will return to those who practice it.	¹⁰ Lav vreba svoju lovinu, tako i grijeh one koji čine nepravdu.
¹¹ The lion lies in wait for its prey continually. So also do sins lie in wait for those who work iniquity.	¹¹ Govor je pobožna čovjeka uvijek pun mudrosti, a luđak se mijenja poput mjeseca.
¹² A holy man persists in wisdom like the sun. But a senseless man changes like the moon.	¹² Kad si među bezumnicima, pazi na vrijeme, a s ljudima mudrim boravi bez straha.
¹³ In the midst of the senseless, retain a word for the proper time. But be continually in the midst those who are thoughtful.	¹³ Sablažnjiv je govor luđački i smijeh je njihov grešna razuzdanost.
¹⁴ The discussions of sinners are hateful, and their laughter is a delight in sin.	¹⁴ Govor s mnogim zakletvama podiže čovjeku vlasi, i kad se takvi svađaju, začepiti je uši.
¹⁵ The speech that swears many oaths will cause the hair of the head to stand upright; and its irreverence will cause the ears to be blocked.	¹⁵ Svađa oholih ljudi završava se krvlju, i mučno se slušaju grdnje njihove.
¹⁶ The shedding of blood is in the quarrels of the arrogant; and their evil talk is grievous to hear.	¹⁶ Tko otkriva tajne, gubi povjerenje i neće više naći prijatelja po srcu svojem.
¹⁷ Whoever discloses the secret of a friend breaks faith; and he will not find a friend for his soul.	¹⁷ Ljubi prijatelja i budi mu vjeran, ali ako si izdao njegove tajne, ne idi više za njim.
¹⁸ Love your neighbor, and be united with him faithfully.	¹⁸ Jer kao što čovjek uništava svojeg neprijatelja, tako si ti uništio prijateljstvo svojega bližnjeg.
¹⁹ But if you disclose his secrets, you should not continue to follow after him.	¹⁹ Ili kao što si ispustio pticu iz šake, tako si ispustio prijatelja svoga i nećeš ga uhvatiti više.
²⁰ For like a man who destroys his friend, so also is he who destroys the friendship of his neighbor.	²⁰ Ne trči za njim jer je daleko odmakao i utekao poput gazele iz zamke.
²¹ And like someone releasing a bird from his hand, so have you abandoned your neighbor, and you will not obtain him again.	²¹ Jer se rana može povezati i pogrda oprostiti, ali za onoga tko je izdao tajnu nema nade.
²² You should no longer seek him, for he is now far away; he has fled like a roe-deer from a snare. For his soul has been wounded.	²² Tko žmirka očima kuje zlo, i nitko ga od toga ne može odvratiti.
²³ You will no longer be able to bind his wound. For there may be a reconciliation from cursing.	²³ Pred tobom je medenih usta i divi se tvojim riječima, ali iza tvojih leđa mijenja svoj jezik i u sablazan izvrće tvoje riječi.
²⁴ But to disclose the secrets of a friend is the hopeless act of an unhappy soul.	²⁴ Mnogo što mrzim, ali ništa kao takva čovjeka, a i Gospod ga mrzi.
²⁵ One who winks with the eye fabricates iniquity, and no one will cast him aside.	²⁵ Tko baca kamen uvis, na glavu mu pada; podmukao udarac protuudarcem rađa.
²⁶ In the sight of your eyes, he will sweeten his mouth, and he will admire your talk. But at the very end, he will pervert his mouth, and he will offer a scandal from your own words.	²⁶ Tko jamu kopa, u nju pada, i tko zamku namješta, u nju se hvata.
²⁷ I have hated many things, but I have not done as he has done, and the Lord will hate him.	²⁷ Tko čini zlo, zlo mu se vraća, iako on ne zna odakle dolazi.
²⁸ Whoever throws a stone straight up will find that it falls on his own head. And a deceitful wound will return to wound the deceitful.	²⁸ Ruglo i sramota oholici, i osveta na nj vreba kao lav.
²⁹ And whoever digs a pit will fall into it. And whoever positions a stone against his neighbor will stumble over it. And whoever lays a trap for another will perish by it.	²⁹ U zamku se hvataju koji se raduju padu pobožnika, i bol će ih izjesti prije smrti njihove.
³⁰ Whoever sets in motion a wicked plan will find that it rolls back over him, and he will not know from which direction it will arrive.	³⁰ Mržnja i srdžba jednako su gnusne, i grešan ih čovjek obje u sebi nosi.
³¹ Mockery and derision are of the arrogant, and vengeance will lie in wait for them, like a lion.
³² Whoever enjoys the fall of the just will perish in a snare, and grief will consume them before they die.
³³ Anger and fury are both abominable, and the sinful man will be held by them.
