Proverbs 19:1-15

Better
<02896>
[is] the poor
<07326> (8802)
that walketh
<01980> (8802)
in his integrity
<08537>_,
than [he that is] perverse
<06141>
in his lips
<08193>_,
and is a fool
<03684>_.
Also, [that] the soul
<05315>
[be] without knowledge
<01847>_,
[it is] not good
<02896>_;
and he that hasteth
<0213> (8801)
with [his] feet
<07272>
sinneth
<02398> (8802)_.
The foolishness
<0200>
of man
<0120>
perverteth
<05557> (8762)
his way
<01870>_:
and his heart
<03820>
fretteth
<02196> (8799)
against the LORD
<03068>_.
Wealth
<01952>
maketh
<03254> (8686)
many
<07227>
friends
<07453>_;
but the poor
<01800>
is separated
<06504> (8735)
from his neighbour
<07453>_.
A false
<08267>
witness
<05707>
shall not be unpunished
<05352> (8735)_,
and [he that] speaketh
<06315> (8686)
lies
<03577>
shall not escape
<04422> (8735)_.
{unpunished: Heb. held innocent}
Many
<07227>
will intreat
<02470> (8762)
the favour
<06440>
of the prince
<05081>_:
and every man [is] a friend
<07453>
to him
<0376>
that giveth gifts
<04976>_.
{him...: Heb. a man of gifts}
All the brethren
<0251>
of the poor
<07326> (8802)
do hate
<08130> (8804)
him: how much more do his friends
<04828>
go far
<07368> (8804)
from him? he pursueth
<07291> (8764)
[them with] words
<0561>_,
[yet] they [are] wanting [to him].
He that getteth
<07069> (8802)
wisdom
<03820>
loveth
<0157> (8802)
his own soul
<05315>_:
he that keepeth
<08104> (8802)
understanding
<08394>
shall find
<04672> (8800)
good
<02896>_.
{wisdom: Heb. an heart}
A false
<08267>
witness
<05707>
shall not be unpunished
<05352> (8735)_,
and [he that] speaketh
<06315> (8686)
lies
<03577>
shall perish
<06> (8799)_.
Delight
<08588>
is not seemly
<05000>
for a fool
<03684>_;
much less for a servant
<05650>
to have rule
<04910> (8800)
over princes
<08269>_.
The discretion
<07922>
of a man
<0120>
deferreth
<0748> (8689)
his anger
<0639>_;
and [it is] his glory
<08597>
to pass over
<05674> (8800)
a transgression
<06588>_.
{discretion: or, prudence}
The king's
<04428>
wrath
<02197>
[is] as the roaring
<05099>
of a lion
<03715>_;
but his favour
<07522>
[is] as dew
<02919>
upon the grass
<06212>_.
A foolish
<03684>
son
<01121>
[is] the calamity
<01942>
of his father
<01>_:
and the contentions
<04079>
of a wife
<0802>
[are] a continual
<02956> (8802)
dropping
<01812>_.
House
<01004>
and riches
<01952>
[are] the inheritance
<05159>
of fathers
<01>_:
and a prudent
<07919> (8688)
wife
<0802>
[is] from the LORD
<03068>_.
Slothfulness
<06103>
casteth
<05307> (8686)
into a deep sleep
<08639>_;
and an idle
<07423>
soul
<05315>
shall suffer hunger
<07456> (8799)_.
