Proverbs 28:10-28

28:10

Whoso causeth the righteous
<03477>

to go astray
<07686> (8688)

in an evil
<07451>

way
<01870>_,

he shall fall
<05307> (8799)

himself into his own pit
<07816>_:

but the upright
<08549>

shall have good
<02896>

[things] in possession
<05157> (8799)_.

28:11

The rich
<06223>

man
<0376>

[is] wise
<02450>

in his own conceit
<05869>_;

but the poor
<01800>

that hath understanding
<0995> (8688)

searcheth him out
<02713> (8799)_.

{own...: Heb. eyes}

28:12

When righteous
<06662>

[men] do rejoice
<05970> (8800)_,

[there is] great
<07227>

glory
<08597>_:

but when the wicked
<07563>

rise
<06965> (8800)_,

a man
<0120>

is hidden
<02664> (8792)_.

{hidden: or, sought for}

28:13

He that covereth
<03680> (8764)

his sins
<06588>

shall not prosper
<06743> (8686)_:

but whoso confesseth
<03034> (8688)

and forsaketh
<05800> (8802)

[them] shall have mercy
<07355> (8792)_.

28:14

Happy
<0835>

[is] the man
<0120>

that feareth
<06342> (8764)

alway
<08548>_:

but he that hardeneth
<07185> (8688)

his heart
<03820>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

into mischief
<07451>_.

28:15

[As] a roaring
<05098> (8802)

lion
<0738>_,

and a ranging
<08264> (8802)

bear
<01677>_;

[so is] a wicked
<07563>

ruler
<04910> (8802)

over the poor
<01800>

people
<05971>_.

28:16

The prince
<05057>

that wanteth
<02638>

understanding
<08394>

[is] also a great
<07227>

oppressor
<04642>_:

[but] he that hateth
<08130> (8802)

covetousness
<01215>

shall prolong
<0748> (8686)

[his] days
<03117>_.

28:17

A man
<0120>

that doeth violence
<06231> (8803)

to the blood
<01818>

of [any] person
<05315>

shall flee
<05127> (8799)

to the pit
<0953>_;

let no man stay
<08551> (8799)

him.

28:18

Whoso walketh
<01980> (8802)

uprightly
<08549>

shall be saved
<03467> (8735)_:

but [he that is] perverse
<06140> (8737)

[in his] ways
<01870>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

at once
<0259>_.

28:19

He that tilleth
<05647> (8802)

his land
<0127>

shall have plenty
<07646> (8799)

of bread
<03899>_:

but he that followeth
<07291> (8764)

after vain
<07386>

[persons] shall have poverty enough
<07389>_.

28:20

A faithful
<0530>

man
<0376>

shall abound
<07227>

with blessings
<01293>_:

but he that maketh haste
<0213> (8801)

to be rich
<06238> (8687)

shall not be innocent
<05352> (8735)_.

{innocent: or, unpunished}

28:21

To have respect
<05234> (8687)

of persons
<06440>

[is] not good
<02896>_:

for for a piece
<06595>

of bread
<03899>

[that] man
<01397>

will transgress
<06586> (8799)_.

28:22

He
<0376>

that hasteth
<0926> (8737)

to be rich
<01952>

[hath] an evil
<07451>

eye
<05869>_,

and considereth
<03045> (8799)

not that poverty
<02639>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

upon him. {hasteth...: or, hath and evil eye hasteth to be rich}

28:23

He that rebuketh
<03198> (8688)

a man
<0120>

afterwards
<0310>

shall find
<04672> (8799)

more favour
<02580>

than he that flattereth
<02505> (8688)

with the tongue
<03956>_.

28:24

Whoso robbeth
<01497> (8802)

his father
<01>

or his mother
<0517>_,

and saith
<0559> (8802)_,

[It is] no transgression
<06588>_;

the same [is] the companion
<02270>

of a destroyer
<0376> <07843> (8688)_.

{a destroyer: Heb. a man destroying}

28:25

He that is of a proud
<07342>

heart
<05315>

stirreth up
<01624> (8762)

strife
<04066>_:

but he that putteth his trust
<0982> (8802)

in the LORD
<03068>

shall be made fat
<01878> (8792)_.

28:26

He that trusteth
<0982> (8802)

in his own heart
<03820>

is a fool
<03684>_:

but whoso walketh
<01980> (8802)

wisely
<02451>_,

he shall be delivered
<04422> (8735)_.

28:27

He that giveth
<05414> (8802)

unto the poor
<07326> (8802)

shall not lack
<04270>_:

but he that hideth
<05956> (8688)

his eyes
<05869>

shall have many
<07227>

a curse
<03994>_.

28:28

When the wicked
<07563>

rise
<06965> (8800)_,

men
<0120>

hide
<05641> (8735)

themselves: but when they perish
<06> (8800)_,

the righteous
<06662>

increase
<07235> (8799)_.
