Proverbs 20:15 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015

Dhahabu kunayo, na marijani kwa wingi, lakini midomo inenayo maarifa ni kito cha thamani kilicho adimu.

Proverbs 20:15 in English

There is an abundance of gold and rubies, but lips of knowledge are a rare treasure.

Context

13Usiupende usingizi la sivyo utakuwa maskini, uwe macho nawe utakuwa na chakula cha akiba. 14“Haifai, haifai!” asema mnunuzi, kisha huondoka akijisifia ununuzi wake. 15Dhahabu kunayo, na marijani kwa wingi, lakini midomo inenayo maarifa ni kito cha thamani kilicho adimu. 16Chukua vazi la yule awekaye dhamana kwa ajili ya mgeni; lishikilie iwe dhamana kama anafanya hivyo kwa ajili ya mwanamke mpotovu. 17Chakula kilichopatikana kwa hila ni kitamu kwa mwanadamu, bali huishia na kinywa kilichojaa changarawe.
