Mithali 13:8
Proverbs 13:8 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015
Utajiri wa mtu waweza kukomboa maisha yake, bali mtu maskini hasikii kitisho.
Proverbs 13:8 in English
Proverbs 13:8 · Berean Standard Bible
Riches may ransom a man’s life, but a poor man hears no threat.
Context
6Haki humlinda mtu mwadilifu,
bali uovu humwangusha mwenye dhambi. 7Mtu mmoja hujifanya tajiri, kumbe hana chochote;
mwingine hujifanya maskini, kumbe ana utajiri mwingi. 8Utajiri wa mtu waweza kukomboa maisha yake,
bali mtu maskini hasikii kitisho. 9Nuru ya mwenye haki hungʼaa sana,
bali taa ya mwovu itazimwa. 10Kiburi huzalisha magomvi tu,
bali hekima hupatikana kwa wale wanaozingatia ushauri.
