ReinaValera⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ El que pasando se deja llevar de la ira en pleito ajeno, Es como el que toma al perro por las orejas. ¹⁸ Como el que enloquece, y echa llamas Y saetas y muerte, ¹⁹ Tal es el hombre que daña á su amigo, Y dice: Ciertamente me chanceaba. ²⁰ Sin leña se apaga el fuego: Y donde no hay chismoso, cesa la contienda. ²¹ El carbón para brasas, y la leña para el fuego: Y el hombre rencilloso para encender contienda. ²² Las palabras del chismoso parecen blandas; Mas ellas entran hasta lo secreto del vientre.

Albanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Kalimtari që përzihet në një grindje që nuk i përket, është si ai që kap nga veshët një qen. ¹⁸ Ashtu si një i marrë që gjuan me ura zjarri, me shigjeta dhe me vdekje, ¹⁹ kështu është ai që mashtron të afërmin dhe thotë: "E bëra për shaka!". ²⁰ Kur mungojnë drutë, zjarri shuhet; dhe kur nuk ka një gojë të keqe, grindja merr fund. ²¹ Ashtu si qymyri jep shpuzën dhe drutë zjarrin, kështu njeriu grindavec i nxit grindjet. ²² Fjalët e gojëkeqit janë si ushqime shumë të shijshme dhe depërtojnë deri në thellësi të zorrëve.

RST⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Хватает пса за уши, кто, проходя мимо, вмешивается в чужую ссору. ¹⁸ Как притворяющийся помешанным бросает огонь, стрелы и смерть, ¹⁹ так – человек, который коварно вредит другу своему и потом говорит: „я только пошутил". ²⁰ Где нет больше дров, огонь погасает, и где нет наушника, раздор утихает. ²¹ Уголь – для жара и дрова – для огня, а человек сварливый – дляразжжения ссоры. ²² Слова наушника – как лакомства, и они входят во внутренность чрева.

Arabic⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ كممسك اذني كلب هكذا من يعبر ويتعرض لمشاجرة لا تعنيه. ¹⁸ مثل المجنون الذي يرمي نارا وسهاما وموتا ¹⁹ هكذا الرجل الخادع قريبه ويقول ألم العب انا. ²⁰ بعدم الحطب تنطفئ النار وحيث لا نمّام يهدأ الخصام. ²¹ فحم للجمر وحطب للنار هكذا الرجل المخاصم لتهييج النزاع. ²² كلام النمّام مثل لقم حلوة فينزل الى مخادع البطن

Bulgarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Както един, който хваща куче за ушите, така е минувачът, който се бърка в чужда разправия. ¹⁸ Както е луд, който хвърля главни, стрели и смърт, ¹⁹ така е и човекът, който измамва ближния си и казва: Не се ли пошегувах! ²⁰ Където няма дърва, огънят изгасва и където няма клюкар, раздорът престава. ²¹ Както въглища за жар и дърва за огън, така е и свадлив човек да разпалва свада. ²² Думите на клюкаря са като сладки залъци и слизат вътре в корема.

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Psa za uši hvata tko se, u prolazu, umiješa u raspru koja ga se ne tiče. ¹⁸ Kao bjesomučnik koji baca zublje, strelice i sije smrt, ¹⁹ takav je čovjek koji vara bližnjega svoga i veli: "Samo se našalih." ²⁰ Kad nestane drva, oganj se gasi, i kad više nema klevetnika, prestaje svađa. ²¹ Ugljen je za žeravnicu i drvo za oganj, a svadljivac da raspaljuje svađu. ²² Klevetnikove su riječi kao slastice: spuštaju se u dno utrobe.

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Psa za uši lapá, kdož odcházeje, hněvá se ne v své při. ¹⁸ Jako nesmyslný vypouští jiskry a šípy smrtelné, ¹⁹ Tak jest každý, kdož oklamává bližního, a říká: Zdaž jsem nežertoval? ²⁰ Když není drev, hasne oheň; tak když nebude klevetníka, utichne svár. ²¹ Uhel mrtvý k roznícení, a drva k ohni, tak člověk svárlivý k roznícení svady. ²² Slova utrhače jako ubitých, ale však sstupují do vnitřností života.

Danish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Som den, der griber Hunden fat ved Ørene, saa er den, der gaar forbi og kommer i Vrede over en Trætte, der ikke kommer ham ved. ¹⁸ Som en gal, der udkaster Gnister, Pile og Død, ¹⁹ saa er den siger: Skæmter jeg ikke? ²⁰ Naar der intet Ved er mere udslukkes Ilden; og naar der inæn Bagvadsker er, stilles Trætte. ²¹ Kul til Gløder og Ved til Ild: Saa er en trættekær Mand til at optænde Kiv. ²² En Bagvadskers Ord lyde som Skæmt, dog trænge de irld i inderste Bug.

Esperanto⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Pasanto, kiu sin miksas en malpropran disputon, Estas kiel iu, kiu kaptas hundon je la oreloj. ¹⁸ Kiel frenezulo, kiu jxetas fajron, Sagojn, kaj morton, ¹⁹ Tiel estas homo, kiu trompas sian proksimulon, Kaj diras:Mi ja sxercas. ²⁰ Kie ne estas ligno, estingigxas la fajro; Kaj se ne estas kalumnianto, cxesigxas malpaco. ²¹ Karbo servas por ardajxo, ligno por fajro, Kaj homo malpacema por provoki malpacon. ²² La vortoj de kalumnianto estas kiel frandajxoj, Kaj ili penetras en la profundon de la ventro.

Finnish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Joka käy ohitse ja sekoittaa itsensä muiden riitoihin, hän on senkaltainen, joka koiraa korvista vetää. ¹⁸ Niinkuin se, joka salaa ampuu, tarkoittaa joutsella ja tappaa, ¹⁹ Niin on petollinen ihminen hänen lähimmäisillensä, ja sanoo: leikillä minä sen tein. ²⁰ Kuin halot loppuvat, niin tuli sammuu, ja kuin kielikellot pannaan pois, niin riidat lakkaavat. ²¹ Niinkuin hiilet tuleen, ja puut liekkiin, niin riitainen ihminen saattaa metelin. ²² Panettelian sanat ovat niinkuin haavat, ja käyvät läpi sydämen.

FinnishPR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Kulkukoiraa korviin tarttuu se, joka syrjäisten riidasta suuttuu. ¹⁸ Kuin mieletön, joka ammuskelee tulisia surmannuolia, ¹⁹ on mies, joka pettää lähimmäisensä ja sanoo: "Leikillähän minä sen tein". ²⁰ Halkojen loppuessa sammuu tuli, ja panettelijan poistuessa taukoaa tora. ²¹ Hehkuksi hiilet, tuleksi halot, riidan lietsomiseksi toraisa mies. ²² Panettelijan puheet ovat kuin herkkupalat ja painuvat sisusten kammioihin asti.

Haitian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Moun k'ap foure bouch nan koze ki pa gade l', se tankou moun k'ap rale ke chen li jwenn sou gran chemen. ¹⁸ -(we vèsè pwochen) ¹⁹ Moun k'ap mache twonpe moun, apre sa pou li di: Aa monchè! Se jwe mwen t'ap jwe, moun konsa tankou moun fou k'ap voye bwa dife ak wòch pou touye moun. ²⁰ Kote ki pa gen bwa, pa gen dife. Kote ki pa gen tripòt, pa gen kont. ²¹ Chabon kenbe recho a limen. Bwa pa kite dife a mouri. Konsa tou, moun ki renmen chache kont toujou ap pouse dife. ²² Tripotay dous nan zòrèy moun ki vle tande yo. Sa mache nan san yo.

Hungarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Kóbor ebet ragad fülön, a ki felháborodik a perpatvaron, a mely õt nem illeti. ¹⁸ Mint a balga, a ki tüzet, nyilakat és halálos szerszámokat lövöldöz, ¹⁹ Olyan [az], a ki megcsalja az õ felebarátját, és azt mondja: csak tréfáltam! ²⁰ Ha a fa elfogy, kialuszik a tûz; ha nincs súsárló, megszûnik a háborgás. ²¹ Mint az elevenszénre a holtszén, és a fa a tûzre, [olyan] a háborúságszerzõ ember a patvarkodásnak felgyujtására. ²² A fondorlónak beszédei hízelkedõk, és azok áthatják a szív belsejét.

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Orang yang ikut campur dalam pertengkaran yang bukan urusannya sama seperti orang yang menangkap anjing liar pada telinganya. ¹⁸ Orang yang menipu, lalu berkata, "Aku hanya bergurau saja," sama dengan orang gila yang bermain dengan senjata berbahaya. ¹⁹ (26:18) ²⁰ Jika kayu telah habis, padamlah api; jika si bocor mulut sudah tiada, pertengkaran pun berhenti. ²¹ Seperti arang dan kayu membuat api tetap menyala; begitulah orang yang suka bertengkar membakar suasana. ²² Fitnah itu enak rasanya; orang suka menelannya.

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Colui che passando trascorre in ira per una questione che non gli tocca, È come chi afferra un cane per gli orecchi. ¹⁸ Quale è colui che, infingendosi di scherzare, avventa razzi, Saette, e cose mortifere; ¹⁹ Tale è colui che inganna il suo prossimo, E dice: Non ischerzo io? ²⁰ Il fuoco si spegne, quando mancano legne; Così le contese si acquetano, quando non vi son rapportatori. ²¹ Il carbone è per far brace, e le legne per far fuoco; E l’uomo rissoso per accender contese. ²² Le parole del rapportatore paiono lusinghevoli; Ma scendono fin dentro al ventre.

ItalianRiveduta⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Il passante che si riscalda per una contesa che non lo concerne, è come chi afferra un cane per le orecchie. ¹⁸ Come un pazzo che avventa tizzoni, frecce e morte, ¹⁹ così è colui che inganna il prossimo, e dice: "Ho fatto per ridere!" ²⁰ Quando mancan le legna, il fuoco si spegne; e quando non c’è maldicente, cessan le contese. ²¹ Come il carbone da la brace, e le legna dànno la fiamma, così l’uomo rissoso accende le liti. ²² Le parole del maldicente son come ghiottonerie, e penetrano fino nell’intimo delle viscere.

Korean⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ 길로 지나다가 자기에게 상관없는 다툼을 간섭하는 자는 개 귀를 잡는 자와 같으니라 ¹⁸ 횃불을 던지며 살을 쏘아서 사람을 죽이는 미친 사람이 있나니 ¹⁹ 자기 이웃을 속이고 말하기를 내가 희롱하였노라 하는 자도 그러하니라 ²⁰ 나무가 다하면 불이 꺼지고 말장이가 없어지면 다툼이 쉬느니라 ²¹ 숯불 위에 숯을 더하는 것과 타는 불에 나무를 더하는 것 같이 다툼을 좋아하는 자는 시비를 일으키느니라 ²² 남의 말하기를 좋아하는 자의 말은 별식과 같아서 뱃 속 깊은 데로 내려가느니라

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Kas praeidamas įsikiša į vaidus, kurie jo neliečia, elgiasi kaip tas, kuris šunį griebia už ausų. ¹⁸ Kaip beprotis, kuris mėto žarijas, laido strėles ir žudo, ¹⁹ yra tas, kas apgauna artimą ir sako: “Aš pajuokavau”. ²⁰ Kai nėra malkų, gęsta ugnis; pašalinus apkalbėtoją, baigiasi ginčai. ²¹ Kaip iš anglių atsiranda žarijos ir iš malkų ugnis, taip vaidingas žmogus sukelia kivirčus. ²² Apkalbos yra lyg skanėstas, kuris pasiekia žmogaus vidurius.

PBG⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Jakoby też psa za uszy łapał, kto się mimo idąc w cudzą zwadę wdaje. ¹⁸ Jako szalony wypuszcza iskry i strzały śmiertelne: ¹⁹ Tak jest każdy, który podchodzi przyjaciela swego, a mówi: Azam ja nie żartował? ²⁰ Gdy niestaje drew, gaśnie ogień; tak gdy nie będzie klatecznika, ucichnie zwada. ²¹ Jako węgiel martwy służy do rozniecenia, i drwa do ognia; tak człowiek swarliwy do rozniecenia zwady. ²² Słowa obmówcy są jako słowa zranionych; a wszakże przenikają do wnętrzności żywota.

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ O que, passando, se mete em questão alheia é como aquele que toma um cão pelas orelhas. ¹⁸ Como o louco que atira tições, flechas, e morte, ¹⁹ assim é o homem que engana o seu próximo, e diz: Fiz isso por brincadeira. ²⁰ Faltando lenha, apaga-se o fogo; e não havendo difamador, cessa a contenda. ²¹ Como o carvão para as brasas, e a lenha para o fogo, assim é o homem contencioso para acender rixas. ²² As palavras do difamador são como bocados deliciosos, que descem ao íntimo do ventre.

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Un trecător care se amestecă într'o ceartă care nu -l priveşte, este ca unul care apucă un cîne de urechi. ¹⁸ Ca nebunul care aruncă săgeţi aprise şi ucigătoare, ¹⁹ aşa este omul care înşală pe aproapele său, şi apoi zice:,,Am vrut doar să glumesc!`` - ²⁰ Cînd nu mai sînt lemne, focul se stinge; şi cînd nu mai este niciun clevetitor, cearta se potoleşte. ²¹ După cum cărbunele face jăratic, şi lemnul foc, tot aşa şi omul gîlcevitor aprinde cearta. ²² Cuvintele clevetitorului sînt ca nişte prăjituri, alunecă pînă în fundul măruntaielor. -

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ Пса за вуха хапає, хто, йдучи, устряває до сварки чужої. ¹⁸ Як той, хто вдає божевільного, кидає іскри, стріли та смерть, ¹⁹ так і людина, що обманює друга свого та каже: Таж це я жартую!... ²⁰ З браку дров огонь гасне, а без пліткаря мовкне сварка. ²¹ Вугілля для жару, а дрова огневі, а людина сварлива щоб сварку розпалювати. ²² Слова обмовника мов ті присмаки, й у нутро живота вони сходять.
