Proverbs 27:1-18

Boast
<01984> (8691)

not thyself of to morrow
<04279>_;

for thou knowest
<03045> (8799)

not what a day
<03117>

may bring forth
<03205> (8799)_.

{to...: Heb. to morrow day}

Let another man
<02114> (8801)

praise
<01984> (8762)

thee, and not thine own mouth
<06310>_;

a stranger
<05237>_,

and not thine own lips
<08193>_.

A stone
<068>

[is] heavy
<03514>_,

and the sand
<02344>

weighty
<05192>_;

but a fool's
<0191>

wrath
<03708>

[is] heavier
<03515>

than them both
<08147>_.

{heavy: Heb. heaviness}

Wrath
<02534>

[is] cruel
<0395>_,

and anger
<0639>

[is] outrageous
<07858>_;

but who [is] able to stand
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

envy
<07068>_?

{Wrath...: Heb. Wrath is cruelty, and anger an overflowing} {envy: or, jealousy?}

Open
<01540> (8794)

rebuke
<08433>

[is] better
<02896>

than secret
<05641> (8794)

love
<0160>_.

Faithful
<0539> (8737)

[are] the wounds
<06482>

of a friend
<0157> (8802)_;

but the kisses
<05390>

of an enemy
<08130> (8802)

[are] deceitful
<06280> (8737)_.

{deceitful: or, earnest, or, frequent}

The full
<07649>

soul
<05315>

loatheth
<0947> (8799)

an honeycomb
<05317>_;

but to the hungry
<07457>

soul
<05315>

every bitter thing
<04751>

is sweet
<04966>_.

{loatheth: Heb. treadeth under foot}

As a bird
<06833>

that wandereth
<05074> (8802)

from her nest
<07064>_,

so [is] a man
<0376>

that wandereth
<05074> (8802)

from his place
<04725>_.

Ointment
<08081>

and perfume
<07004>

rejoice
<08055> (8762)

the heart
<03820>_:

so [doth] the sweetness
<04986>

of a man's friend
<07453>

by hearty
<05315>

counsel
<06098>_.

{by...: Heb. from the counsel of the soul}

Thine own friend
<07453>_,

and thy father's
<01>

friend
<07453>_,

forsake
<05800> (8799)

not; neither go
<0935> (8799)

into thy brother's
<0251>

house
<01004>

in the day
<03117>

of thy calamity
<0343>_:

[for] better
<02896>

[is] a neighbour
<07934>

[that is] near
<07138>

than a brother
<0251>

far off
<07350>_.

My son
<01121>_,

be wise
<02449> (8798)_,

and make my heart
<03820>

glad
<08055> (8761)_,

that I may answer
<07725> (8686) <01697>

him that reproacheth
<02778> (8802)

me.

A prudent
<06175>

[man] foreseeth
<07200> (8804)

the evil
<07451>_,

[and] hideth
<05641> (8738)

himself; [but] the simple
<06612>

pass on
<05674> (8804)_,

[and] are punished
<06064> (8738)_.

Take
<03947> (8798)

his garment
<0899>

that is surety
<06148> (8804)

for a stranger
<02114> (8801)_,

and take a pledge
<02254> (8798)

of him for a strange woman
<05237>_.

He that blesseth
<01288> (8764)

his friend
<07453>

with a loud
<01419>

voice
<06963>_,

rising early
<07925> (8687)

in the morning
<01242>_,

it shall be counted
<02803> (8735)

a curse
<07045>

to him.

A continual
<02956> (8802)

dropping
<01812>

in a very rainy
<05464>

day
<03117>

and a contentious
<04079> (8675) <04066>

woman
<0802>

are alike
<07737> (8739)_.

Whosoever hideth
<06845> (8802)

her hideth
<06845> (8804)

the wind
<07307>_,

and the ointment
<08081>

of his right hand
<03225>_,

[which] bewrayeth
<07121> (8799)

[itself].

Iron
<01270>

sharpeneth
<02300> (8799)

iron
<01270>_;

so a man
<0376>

sharpeneth
<02300> (8686)

the countenance
<06440>

of his friend
<07453>_.

Whoso keepeth
<05341> (8802)

the fig tree
<08384>

shall eat
<0398> (8799)

the fruit
<06529>

thereof: so he that waiteth
<08104> (8802)

on his master
<0113>

shall be honoured
<03513> (8792)_.
