Proverbs 22:1-18

A [good] name
<08034>
[is] rather to be chosen
<0977> (8737)
than great
<07227>
riches
<06239>_,
[and] loving
<02896>
favour
<02580>
rather than silver
<03701>

The rich
<06223>
and poor
<07326> (8802)
meet together
<06298> (8738)_:
the LORD
<03068>
[is] the maker
<06213> (8802)
of them all.
A prudent
<06175>

the evil
<07451>_,
and hideth
<05641> (8738) (8675) <05641> (8799)
himself: but the simple
<06612>
pass on
<05674> (8804)_,

By
<06118>
humility
<06038>
[and] the fear
<03374>
of the LORD
<03068>
[are] riches
<06239>_,
and honour
<03519>_,
and life
<02416>_.
{By...: or, The reward of humility, etc}
Thorns
<06791>
[and] snares
<06341>
[are] in the way
<01870>
of the froward
<06141>_:
he that doth keep
<08104> (8802)
his soul
<05315>
shall be far
<07368> (8799)
from them.
Train up
<02596> (8798)
a child

from it. {Train...: or, Catechise} {in...: Heb. in his way}

<06223>
ruleth
<04910> (8799)

[is] servant
<05650>
to the lender
<0376> <03867> (8688)_.
{the lender: Heb. the man that lendeth}
He that soweth
<02232> (8802)

<0205>_:
and the rod
<07626>
of his anger
<05678>
shall fail

<02896>
eye

<05414> (8804)
of his bread
<03899>
to the poor
<01800>_.

Cast out
<01644> (8763)
the scorner
<03887> (8801)_,
and contention
<04066>
shall go out
<03318> (8799)_;
yea, strife
<01779>
and reproach
<07036>
shall cease
<07673> (8799)_.
He that loveth
<0157> (8802)
pureness
<02890> (8675) <02889>
of heart
<03820>_,
[for] the grace
<02580>
of his lips
<08193>
the king
<04428>
[shall be] his friend
<07453>_.
{for...: or, and hath grace in his lips}
The eyes
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>
preserve

<01847>_,

<05557> (8762)
the words
<01697>
of the transgressor
<0898> (8802)_.
{the words: or, the matters}

I shall be slain
<07523> (8735)
in

the streets

The mouth
<06310>

of the LORD
<03068>
shall fall
<05307> (8799)
therein.
Foolishness
<0200>

<07194> (8803)
in the heart
<03820>
of a child
<05288>_;

<07626>
of correction
<04148>
shall drive it far
<07368> (8686)
from him.
He that oppresseth
<06231> (8802)

<01800>
to increase
<07235> (8687)
his [riches, and] he that giveth

thine ear

of the wise
<02450>_,
and apply
<07896> (8799)
thine heart
<03820>
unto my knowledge
<01847>_.

thee; they shall withal

<03559> (8735)
in thy lips
<08193>_.
