28 dusht nathde han bhave ohna da koi pichha vi na kar reha hove,
2 je desh vich gunah hunda rahe,* taa ik haakam aavega, dooja javega,+
par soojh-boojh vale atey giaanvaan aadmi di madad naal haakam* lambe same tak tikya rahega.+
3 jehrra gareeb aadmi dukhiye nu thaggda hai,+
oh ajehe meeh varga hai jo sare anaaj nu rorr ke lai janda hai.
4 jehrre kaide-kanoon nu mann-na chhadd dinde han, oh dusht di tareef karde han,
par kaide-kanoon nu mannan vale ohna te gusse hunde han.+
5 bure aadmi niya nu samajh nahi sakde,
par yahovah nu bhalan vale sabh kujh samajh sakde han.+
6 khare raah te chalan vala gareeb,
os ameer aadmi nalo changa hai jis de raah puthe han.+
7 samajhdar puttar kaide-kanoon nu mannda hai,
par petuaa da saathi apne pita nu sharminda karda hai.+
8 jehrra viaaj atey munafe naal apni dhan-daulat vadhaunda hai,+
oh gareeb te daya karan vale layi is nu ikattha karda hai.+
9 jehrra kanoon val kann laun to inkaar karda hai,
os di taa prarthna vi ghinauni hai.+
10 nek insaan nu bure raah paaun vala apne hi putte toye vich dig pavega,+
par nirdosh nu changi virasat milegi.+
11 ameer aadmi apnia hi nazra vich budhiman hunda hai,+
par soojh-boojh vala gareeb aadmi os nu bhanp lainda hai.+
12 jado dharmi jittda hai, taa khushiya manaiya jandiya han,
par jado dusht satta vich aaunda hai, taa lok lukde firde han.+
13 jehrra apne apradha nu luko lainda hai, oh safal nahi hovega,+
par jehrra ohna nu mann lainda hai atey chhadd dinda hai, os utte rehem keeta javega.+
14 khush hai oh insaan jo hamesha chukanna rehnda hai,*
par apne dil nu kathor kar lain vala bipta vich pai javega.+
15 lachar lokaa utte dusht haakam,
daharran vale sher atey hamla karan vale richh varga hai.+
16 soojh-boojh to kamm na lain vala aagu apni takat da galat istemal karda hai,+
par beimaani di kamayi to nafrat karan vala apni umar lambi karega.+
17 jo aadmi kise de khoon da doshi hai, oh eh bojh chukki kabar* vich jaan tak bhajjda rahega.+
koi vi os da saath na deve.
19 jehrra apni zameen nu vahunda hai, os kol bharpoor khana hovega,
par fazool kamma vich lagge rehen vale nu anta di gareebi aa gheregi.+
20 vafadar aadmi dher sariya barkata pavega,+
par jehrra rato-raat ameer ban-na chahunda hai, oh nirdosh nahi rahega.+
21 pakhpaat karna changi gall nahi;+
par insaan shayad roti di burki layi galat kamm kar baithe.
22 eerkhalu* aadmi dhan-daulat paaun layi utavla rehnda hai,
par os nu eh nahi pata ki gareebi os nu aa gheregi.
23 jo kise nu taarrda hai,+ os nu baad vich os aadmi nalo ziada pasand keeta janda hai+
jo apni jeebh naal chaploosi karda hai.
24 jehrra apne mata-pita nu lutt ke kehnda hai, “eh galat nahi,”+
oh tabahi liaaun vale aadmi da saathi hai.+
27 jehrra gareeb nu dinda hai, os nu kise cheez di kami nahi hovegi,+
par jehrra ohna to akkha meech lainda hai, os nu bahut sare saraap milange.
28 jado dusht satta vich aaunde han, taa aadmi apne aap nu lukaa lainda hai,
par jado oh mit jande han, taa dharmiya di ginti vadh jandi hai.+
