The proverbs{H4912} of Solomon.{H8010} A wise{H2450} son{H1121} maketh a glad{H8055} father;{H1} But a foolish{H3684} son{H1121} is the heaviness{H8424} of his mother.{H517}

Treasures{H214} of wickedness{H7562} profit{H3276} nothing; But righteousness{H6666} delivereth{H5337} from death.{H4194}

Jehovah{H3068} will not suffer{H7456} the soul{H5315} of the righteous{H6662} to famish;{H7456} But he thrusteth away{H1920} the desire{H1942} of the wicked.{H7563}

He becometh poor{H7326} that worketh{H6213} with a slack{H7423} hand;{H3709} But the hand{H3027} of the diligent{H2742} maketh rich.{H6238}

He that gathereth{H103} in summer{H7019} is a wise{H7919} son;{H1121} [But] he that sleepeth{H7290} in harvest{H7105} is a son{H1121} that causeth shame.{H954}

Blessings{H1293} are upon the head{H7218} of the righteous;{H6662} But violence{H2555} covereth{H3680} the mouth{H6310} of the wicked.{H7563}

The memory{H2143} of the righteous{H6662} is blessed;{H1293} But the name{H8034} of the wicked{H7563} shall rot.{H7537}

The wise{H2450} in heart{H3820} will receive{H3947} commandments;{H4687} But a prating{H8193} fool{H191} shall fall.{H3832}

He that walketh{H3212} uprightly{H8537} walketh{H1980} surely;{H983} But he that perverteth{H6140} his ways{H1870} shall be known.{H3045}

He that winketh{H7169} with the eye{H5869} causeth{H5414} sorrow;{H6094} But a prating{H8193} fool{H191} shall fall.{H3832}

The mouth{H6310} of the righteous{H6662} is a fountain{H4726} of life;{H2416} But violence{H2555} covereth{H3680} the mouth{H6310} of the wicked.{H7563}

Hatred{H8135} stirreth up{H5782} strifes;{H4090} But love{H160} covereth{H3680} all transgressions.{H6588}

In the lips{H8193} of him that hath discernment{H995} wisdom{H2451} is found;{H4672} But a rod{H7626} is for the back{H1460} of him that is void{H2638} of understanding.{H3820}

Wise{H2450} men lay up{H6845} knowledge;{H1847} But the mouth{H6310} of the foolish{H191} is a present{H7138} destruction.{H4288}

The rich man's{H6223} wealth{H1952} is his strong{H5797} city:{H7151} The destruction{H4288} of the poor{H1800} is their poverty.{H7389}

The labor{H6468} of the righteous{H6662} [tendeth] to life;{H2416} The increase{H8393} of the wicked,{H7563} to sin.{H2403}

He is in the way{H734} of life{H2416} that heedeth{H8104} correction;{H4148} But he that forsaketh{H5800} reproof{H8433} erreth.{H8582}

He that hideth{H3680} hatred{H8135} is of lying{H8267} lips;{H8193} And he that uttereth{H3318} a slander{H1681} is a fool.{H3684}

In the multitude{H7230} of words{H1697} there wanteth{H2308} not transgression;{H6588} But he that refraineth{H2820} his lips{H8193} doeth wisely.{H7919}

The tongue{H3956} of the righteous{H6662} is [as] choice{H977} silver:{H3701} The heart{H3820} of the wicked{H7563} is little worth.{H4592}

The lips{H8193} of the righteous{H6662} feed{H7462} many;{H7227} But the foolish{H191} die{H4191} for lack{H2638} of understanding.{H3820}

The blessing{H1293} of Jehovah,{H3068} it maketh rich;{H6238} And he addeth{H3254} no sorrow{H6089} therewith.

It is as sport{H7814} to a fool{H3684} to do{H6213} wickedness;{H2154} And [so is] wisdom{H2451} to a man{H376} of understanding.{H8394}

The fear{H4034} of the wicked,{H7563} it shall come{H935} upon him; And the desire{H8378} of the righteous{H6662} shall be granted.{H5414}

When the whirlwind{H5492} passeth,{H5674} the wicked{H7563} is no more; But the righteous{H6662} is an everlasting{H5769} foundation.{H3247}

As vinegar{H2558} to the teeth,{H8127} and as smoke{H6227} to the eyes,{H5869} So is the sluggard{H6102} to them that send{H7971} him.

The fear{H3374} of Jehovah{H3068} prolongeth{H3254} days;{H3117} But the years{H8141} of the wicked{H7563} shall be shortened.{H7114}

The hope{H8431} of the righteous{H6662} [shall be] gladness;{H8057} But the expectation{H8615} of the wicked{H7563} shall perish.{H6}

The way{H1870} of Jehovah{H3068} is a stronghold{H4581} to the upright;{H8537} But it is a destruction{H4288} to the workers{H6466} of iniquity.{H205}

The righteous{H6662} shall never{H5769} be removed;{H4131} But the wicked{H7563} shall not dwell{H7931} in the land.{H776}

The mouth{H6310} of the righteous{H6662} bringeth forth{H5107} wisdom;{H2451} But the perverse{H8419} tongue{H3956} shall be cut off.{H3772}

The lips{H8193} of the righteous{H6662} know{H3045} what is acceptable;{H7522} But the mouth{H6310} of the wicked{H7563} [speaketh] perverseness.{H8419}
