Kama mtu yeyote akikataa kusikia sheria, hata maombi yake ni chukizo.
Proverbs 28:9 in English
Proverbs 28:9 · Berean Standard Bible
Whoever turns his ear away from hearing the law, even his prayer is detestable.
Context
7Yeye ashikaye sheria ni mwana mwenye ufahamu,
bali rafiki wa walafi humwaibisha baba yake. 8Yeye aongezaye utajiri wake kwa riba kubwa mno
hukusanya kwa ajili ya mwingine,
ambaye atawahurumia maskini. 9Kama mtu yeyote akikataa kusikia sheria,
hata maombi yake ni chukizo. 10Yeye ambaye humwongoza mwenye haki kwenye mapito mabaya,
ataanguka kwenye mtego wake mwenyewe,
bali wasio na lawama watapokea urithi mwema. 11Mtu tajiri anaweza kuwa na hekima machoni pake mwenyewe,
bali mtu maskini mwenye ufahamu atamfichua.
