Proverbs 13:1--15:19

A wise
<02450>
son
<01121>
[heareth] his father's
<01>
instruction
<04148>_:
but a scorner
<03887> (8801)
heareth
<08085> (8804)
not rebuke
<01606>_.
A man
<0376>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)
good
<02896>
by the fruit
<06529>
of [his] mouth
<06310>_:
but the soul
<05315>
of the transgressors
<0898> (8802)
[shall eat] violence
<02555>_.
He that keepeth
<05341> (8802)
his mouth
<06310>
keepeth
<08104> (8802)
his life
<05315>_:
[but] he that openeth wide
<06589> (8802)
his lips
<08193>
shall have destruction
<04288>_.
The soul
<05315>
of the sluggard
<06102>
desireth
<0183> (8693)_,
and [hath] nothing: but the soul
<05315>
of the diligent
<02742>
shall be made fat
<01878> (8792)_.
A righteous
<06662>
[man] hateth
<08130> (8799)
lying
<01697> <08267>_:
but a wicked
<07563>
[man] is loathsome
<0887> (8686)_,
and cometh to shame
<02659> (8686)_.
Righteousness
<06666>
keepeth
<05341> (8799)
[him that is] upright
<08537>
in the way
<01870>_:
but wickedness
<07564>
overthroweth
<05557> (8762)
the sinner
<02403>_.
{the sinner: Heb. sin}
There is
<03426>
that maketh himself rich
<06238> (8693)_,
yet [hath] nothing: [there is] that maketh himself poor
<07326> (8711)_,
yet
<03605>
[hath] great
<07227>
riches
<01952>_.
The ransom
<03724>
of a man's
<0376>
life
<05315>
[are] his riches
<06239>_:
but the poor
<07326> (8802)
heareth
<08085> (8804)
not rebuke
<01606>_.
The light
<0216>
of the righteous
<06662>
rejoiceth
<08055> (8799)_:
but the lamp
<05216>
of the wicked
<07563>
shall be put out
<01846> (8799)_.
{lamp: or, candle}
Only by pride
<02087>
cometh
<05414> (8799)
contention
<04683>_:
but with the well advised
<03289> (8737)
[is] wisdom
<02451>_.
Wealth
<01952>
[gotten] by vanity
<01892>
shall be diminished
<04591> (8799)_:
but he that gathereth
<06908> (8802)
by labour
<03027>
shall increase
<07235> (8686)_.
{by labour: Heb. with the hand}
Hope
<08431>
deferred
<04900> (8794)
maketh the heart
<03820>
sick
<02470> (8688)_:
but [when] the desire
<08378>
cometh
<0935> (8802)_,
[it is] a tree
<06086>
of life
<02416>_.
Whoso despiseth
<0936> (8802)
the word
<01697>
shall be destroyed
<02254> (8735)_:
but he that feareth
<03373>
the commandment
<04687>
shall be rewarded
<07999> (8792)_.
{shall be rewarded: or, shall be in peace}
The law
<08451>
of the wise
<02450>
[is] a fountain
<04726>
of life
<02416>_,
to depart
<05493> (8800)
from the snares
<04170>
of death
<04194>_.
Good
<02896>
understanding
<07922>
giveth
<05414> (8799)
favour
<02580>_:
but the way
<01870>
of transgressors
<0898> (8802)
[is] hard
<0386>_.
Every prudent
<06175>
[man] dealeth
<06213> (8799)
with knowledge
<01847>_:
but a fool
<03684>
layeth open
<06566> (8799)
[his] folly
<0200>_.
{layeth...: Heb. spreadeth}
A wicked
<07563>
messenger
<04397>
falleth
<05307> (8799)
into mischief
<07451>_:
but a faithful
<0529>
ambassador
<06735>
[is] health
<04832>_.
{a faithful...: Heb. an ambassador of faithfulness}
Poverty
<07389>
and shame
<07036>
[shall be to] him that refuseth
<06544> (8802)
instruction
<04148>_:
but he that regardeth
<08104> (8802)
reproof
<08433>
shall be honoured
<03513> (8792)_.
The desire
<08378>
accomplished
<01961> (8738)
is sweet
<06149> (8799)
to the soul
<05315>_:
but [it is] abomination
<08441>
to fools
<03684>
to depart
<05493> (8800)
from evil
<07451>_.
He that walketh
<01980> (8802)
with wise
<02450>
[men] shall be wise
<02449> (8799)_:
but a companion
<07462> (8802)
of fools
<03684>
shall be destroyed
<07321> (8735)_.
{destroyed: Heb. broken}
Evil
<07451>
pursueth
<07291> (8762)
sinners
<02400>_:
but to the righteous
<06662>
good
<02896>
shall be repayed
<07999> (8762)_.
A good
<02896>
[man] leaveth an inheritance
<05157> (8686)
to his children's
<01121>
children
<01121>_:
and the wealth
<02428>
of the sinner
<02398> (8802)
[is] laid up
<06845> (8803)
for the just
<06662>_.
Much
<07230>
food
<0400>
[is in] the tillage
<05215>
of the poor
<07218> (8676) <07326> (8802)_:
but there is
<03426>
[that is] destroyed
<05595> (8737)
for want
<03808>
of judgment
<04941>_.
He that spareth
<02820> (8802)
his rod
<07626>
hateth
<08130> (8802)
his son
<01121>_:
but he that loveth
<0157> (8802)
him chasteneth
<04148>
him betimes
<07836> (8765)_.
The righteous
<06662>
eateth
<0398> (8802)
to the satisfying
<07648>
of his soul
<05315>_:
but the belly
<0990>
of the wicked
<07563>
shall want
<02637> (8799)_.
Every wise
<02454>
woman
<0802>
buildeth
<01129> (8804)
her house
<01004>_:
but the foolish
<0200>
plucketh it down
<02040> (8799)
with her hands
<03027>_.
He that walketh
<01980> (8802)
in his uprightness
<03476>
feareth
<03373>
the LORD
<03068>_:
but [he that is] perverse
<03868> (8737)
in his ways
<01870>
despiseth
<0959> (8802)
him.
In the mouth
<06310>
of the foolish
<0191>
[is] a rod
<02415>
of pride
<01346>_:
but the lips
<08193>
of the wise
<02450>
shall preserve
<08104> (8799)
them.
Where no oxen
<0504>
[are], the crib
<018>
[is] clean
<01249>_:
but much
<07230>
increase
<08393>
[is] by the strength
<03581>
of the ox
<07794>_.
A faithful
<0529>
witness
<05707>
will not lie
<03577>_:
but a false
<08267>
witness
<05707>
will utter
<06315> (8686)
lies
<03576> (8762)_.
A scorner
<03887> (8801)
seeketh
<01245> (8765)
wisdom
<02451>_,
and [findeth it] not: but knowledge
<01847>
[is] easy
<07043> (8738)
unto him that understandeth
<0995> (8737)_.
Go
<03212> (8798)
from the presence
<05048>
of a foolish
<03684>
man
<0376>_,
when thou perceivest
<03045> (8804)
not [in him] the lips
<08193>
of knowledge
<01847>_.
The wisdom
<02451>
of the prudent
<06175>
[is] to understand
<0995> (8687)
his way
<01870>_:
but the folly
<0200>
of fools
<03684>
[is] deceit
<04820>_.
Fools
<0191>
make a mock
<03887> (8686)
at sin
<0817>_:
but among the righteous
<03477>
[there is] favour
<07522>_.
The heart
<03820>
knoweth
<03045> (8802)
his own
<05315>
bitterness
<04787>_;
and a stranger
<02114> (8801)
doth not intermeddle
<06148> (8691)
with his joy
<08057>_.
{his own...: Heb. the bitterness of his soul}
The house
<01004>
of the wicked
<07563>
shall be overthrown
<08045> (8735)_:
but the tabernacle
<0168>
of the upright
<03477>
shall flourish
<06524> (8686)_.
There is
<03426>
a way
<01870>
which seemeth right
<03477>
unto
<06440>
a man
<0376>_,
but the end
<0319>
thereof [are] the ways
<01870>
of death
<04194>_.
Even in laughter
<07814>
the heart
<03820>
is sorrowful
<03510> (8799)_;
and the end
<0319>
of that mirth
<08057>
[is] heaviness
<08424>_.
The backslider
<05472> (8803)
in heart
<03820>
shall be filled
<07646> (8799)
with his own ways
<01870>_:
and a good
<02896>
man
<0376>
[shall be satisfied] from himself.
The simple
<06612>
believeth
<0539> (8686)
every word
<01697>_:
but the prudent
<06175>
[man] looketh well
<0995> (8799)
to his going
<0838>_.
A wise
<02450>
[man] feareth
<03373>_,
and departeth
<05493> (8802)
from evil
<07451>_:
but the fool
<03684>
rageth
<05674> (8693)_,
and is confident
<0982> (8802)_.
[He that is] soon
<07116>
angry
<0639>
dealeth
<06213> (8799)
foolishly
<0200>_:
and a man
<0376>
of wicked devices
<04209>
is hated
<08130> (8735)_.
The simple
<06612>
inherit
<05157> (8804)
folly
<0200>_:
but the prudent
<06175>
are crowned
<03803> (8686)
with knowledge
<01847>_.
The evil
<07451>
bow
<07817> (8804)
before
<06440>
the good
<02896>_;
and the wicked
<07563>
at the gates
<08179>
of the righteous
<06662>_.
The poor
<07326> (8802)
is hated
<08130> (8735)
even of his own neighbour
<07453>_:
but the rich
<06223>
[hath] many
<07227>
friends
<0157> (8802)_.
{the rich...: Heb. many are the lovers of the rich}
He that despiseth
<0936> (8802)
his neighbour
<07453>
sinneth
<02398> (8802)_:
but he that hath mercy
<02603> (8781)
on the poor
<06035> (8675) <06041>_,
happy
<0835>
[is] he.
Do they not err
<08582> (8799)
that devise
<02790> (8802)
evil
<07451>_?
but mercy
<02617>
and truth
<0571>
[shall be] to them that devise
<02790> (8802)
good
<02896>_.
In all labour
<06089>
there is profit
<04195>_:
but the talk
<01697>
of the lips
<08193>
[tendeth] only to penury
<04270>_.
The crown
<05850>
of the wise
<02450>
[is] their riches
<06239>_:
[but] the foolishness
<0200>
of fools
<03684>
[is] folly
<0200>_.
A true
<0571>
witness
<05707>
delivereth
<05337> (8688)
souls
<05315>_:
but a deceitful
<04820>
[witness] speaketh
<06315> (8686)
lies
<03577>_.
In the fear
<03374>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] strong
<05797>
confidence
<04009>_:
and his children
<01121>
shall have a place of refuge
<04268>_.
The fear
<03374>
of the LORD
<03068>
[is] a fountain
<04726>
of life
<02416>_,
to depart
<05493> (8800)
from the snares
<04170>
of death
<04194>_.
In the multitude
<07230>
of people
<05971>
[is] the king's
<04428>
honour
<01927>_:
but in the want
<0657>
of people
<03816>
[is] the destruction
<04288>
of the prince
<07333>_.
[He that is] slow
<0750>
to wrath
<0639>
[is] of great
<07227>
understanding
<08394>_:
but [he that is] hasty
<07116>
of spirit
<07307>
exalteth
<07311> (8688)
folly
<0200>_.
{hasty...: Heb. short of spirit}
A sound
<04832>
heart
<03820>
[is] the life
<02416>
of the flesh
<01320>_:
but envy
<07068>
the rottenness
<07538>
of the bones
<06106>_.
He that oppresseth
<06231> (8802)
the poor
<01800>
reproacheth
<02778> (8765)
his Maker
<06213> (8802)_:
but he that honoureth
<03513> (8764)
him hath mercy
<02603> (8802)
on the poor
<034>_.
The wicked
<07563>
is driven away
<01760> (8735)
in his wickedness
<07451>_:
but the righteous
<06662>
hath hope
<02620> (8802)
in his death
<04194>_.
Wisdom
<02451>
resteth
<05117> (8799)
in the heart
<03820>
of him that hath understanding
<0995> (8737)_:
but [that which is] in the midst
<07130>
of fools
<03684>
is made known
<03045> (8735)_.
Righteousness
<06666>
exalteth
<07311> (8787)
a nation
<01471>_:
but sin
<02403>
[is] a reproach
<02617>
to any people
<03816>_.
{to any...: Heb. to nations}
The king's
<04428>
favour
<07522>
[is] toward a wise
<07919> (8688)
servant
<05650>_:
but his wrath
<05678>
is [against] him that causeth shame
<0954> (8688)_.
A soft
<07390>
answer
<04617>
turneth
<07725> (8686)
away wrath
<02534>_:
but grievous
<06089>
words
<01697>
stir up
<05927> (8686)
anger
<0639>_.
The tongue
<03956>
of the wise
<02450>
useth knowledge
<01847>
aright
<03190> (8686)_:
but the mouth
<06310>
of fools
<03684>
poureth out
<05042> (8686)
foolishness
<0200>_.
{poureth: Heb. belcheth, or, bubbleth}
The eyes
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>
[are] in every place
<04725>_,
beholding
<06822> (8802)
the evil
<07451>
and the good
<02896>_.
A wholesome
<04832>
tongue
<03956>
[is] a tree
<06086>
of life
<02416>_:
but perverseness
<05558>
therein [is] a breach
<07667>
in the spirit
<07307>_.
{A wholesome...: Heb. The healing of the tongue}
A fool
<0191>
despiseth
<05006> (8799)
his father's
<01>
instruction
<04148>_:
but he that regardeth
<08104> (8802)
reproof
<08433>
is prudent
<06191> (8686)_.
In the house
<01004>
of the righteous
<06662>
[is] much
<07227>
treasure
<02633>_:
but in the revenues
<08393>
of the wicked
<07563>
is trouble
<05916> (8737)_.
The lips
<08193>
of the wise
<02450>
disperse
<02219> (8762)
knowledge
<01847>_:
but the heart
<03820>
of the foolish
<03684>
[doeth] not so.
The sacrifice
<02077>
of the wicked
<07563>
[is] an abomination
<08441>
to the LORD
<03068>_:
but the prayer
<08605>
of the upright
<03477>
[is] his delight
<07522>_.
The way
<01870>
of the wicked
<07563>
[is] an abomination
<08441>
unto the LORD
<03068>_:
but he loveth
<0157> (8799)
him that followeth
<07291> (8764)
after righteousness
<06666>_.
Correction
<04148>
[is] grievous
<07451>
unto him that forsaketh
<05800> (8802)
the way
<0734>_:
[and] he that hateth
<08130> (8802)
reproof
<08433>
shall die
<04191> (8799)_.
{Correction: or, Instruction}
Hell
<07585>
and destruction
<011>
[are] before the LORD
<03068>_:
how much more then the hearts
<03826>
of the children
<01121>
of men
<0120>_?
A scorner
<03887> (8801)
loveth
<0157> (8799)
not one that reproveth
<03198> (8687)
him: neither will he go
<03212> (8799)
unto the wise
<02450>_.
A merry
<08056>
heart
<03820>
maketh a cheerful
<03190> (8686)
countenance
<06440>_:
but by sorrow
<06094>
of the heart
<03820>
the spirit
<07307>
is broken
<05218>_.
The heart
<03820>
of him that hath understanding
<0995> (8737)
seeketh
<01245> (8762)
knowledge
<01847>_:
but the mouth
<06310> (8675) <06440>
of fools
<03684>
feedeth
<07462> (8799)
on foolishness
<0200>_.
All the days
<03117>
of the afflicted
<06041>
[are] evil
<07451>_:
but he that is of a merry
<02896>
heart
<03820>
[hath] a continual
<08548>
feast
<04960>_.
Better
<02896>
[is] little
<04592>
with the fear
<03374>
of the LORD
<03068>
than great
<07227>
treasure
<0214>
and trouble
<04103>
therewith.
Better
<02896>
[is] a dinner
<0737>
of herbs
<03419>
where love
<0160>
is, than a stalled
<075> (8803)
ox
<07794>
and hatred
<08135>
therewith.
A wrathful
<02534>
man
<0376>
stirreth up
<01624> (8762)
strife
<04066>_:
but [he that is] slow
<0750>
to anger
<0639>
appeaseth
<08252> (8686)
strife
<07379>_.
The way
<01870>
of the slothful
<06102>
[man is] as an hedge
<04881>
of thorns
<02312>_:
but the way
<0734>
of the righteous
<03477>
[is] made plain
<05549> (8803)_.
{is made...: Heb. is raised up as a causey}
