Wine{H3196} is a mocker,{H3887} strong drink{H7941} a brawler;{H1993} And whosoever erreth{H7686} thereby is not wise.{H2449}

The terror{H367} of a king{H4428} is as the roaring{H5099} of a lion:{H3715} He that provoketh him to anger{H5674} sinneth{H2398} [against] his own life.{H5315}

It is an honor{H3519} for a man{H376} to keep aloof from strife;{H7379} But every fool{H191} will be quarrelling.{H1566}

The sluggard{H6102} will not plow{H2790} by reason of the winter;{H2779} Therefore he shall beg{H7592} in harvest,{H7105} and have nothing.

Counsel{H6098} in the heart{H3820} of man{H376} is [like] deep{H6013} water;{H4325} But a man{H376} of understanding{H8394} will draw it out.{H1802}

Most{H7230} men{H120} will proclaim{H7121} every one{H376} his own kindness;{H2617} But a faithful{H529} man{H376} who can find?{H4672}

A righteous{H6662} man that walketh{H1980} in his integrity,{H8537} Blessed{H835} are his children{H1121} after{H310} him.

A king{H4428} that sitteth on{H3427} the throne{H3678} of judgment{H1779} Scattereth away{H2219} all evil{H7451} with his eyes.{H5869}

Who can say,{H559} I have made my heart{H3820} clean,{H2135} I am pure{H2891} from my sin?{H2403}

Diverse weights,{H68} and diverse measures,{H374} Both{H8147} of them alike{H1571} are an abomination{H8441} to Jehovah.{H3068}

Even a child{H5288} maketh himself known{H5234} by his doings,{H4611} Whether his work{H6467} be pure,{H2134} and whether it be right.{H3477}

The hearing{H8085} ear,{H241} and the seeing{H7200} eye,{H5869} Jehovah{H3068} hath made{H6213} even both{H8147} of them.

Love{H157} not sleep,{H8142} let thou come to poverty;{H3423} Open{H6491} thine eyes,{H5869} [and] thou shalt be satisfied{H7646} with bread.{H3899}

It is bad,{H7451} it is bad,{H7451} saith{H559} the buyer;{H7069} But when he is gone{H235} his way, then he boasteth.{H1984}

There is{H3426} gold,{H2091} and abundance{H7230} of rubies;{H6443} But the lips{H8193} of knowledge{H1847} are a precious{H3366} jewel.{H3627}

Take{H3947} his garment{H899} that is surety{H6148} for a stranger;{H2114} And hold him in pledge{H2254} [that is surety] for foreigners.{H5237}

Bread{H3899} of falsehood{H8267} is sweet{H6156} to a man;{H376} But afterwards{H310} his mouth{H6310} shall be filled{H4390} with gravel.{H2687}

Every purpose{H4284} is established{H3559} by counsel;{H6098} And by wise guidance{H8458} make{H6213} thou war.{H4421}

He that goeth about{H1980} as a tale-bearer{H7400} revealeth{H1540} secrets;{H5475} Therefore company{H6148} not with him that openeth{H6601} wide his lips.{H8193}

Whoso curseth{H7043} his father{H1} or his mother,{H517} His lamp{H5216} shall be put out{H1846} in blackness{H380} of darkness.{H2822}

An inheritance{H5159} [may be] gotten hastily{H926} at the beginning;{H7223} But the end{H319} thereof shall not be blessed.{H1288}

Say{H559} not thou, I will recompense{H7999} evil:{H7451} Wait for{H6960} Jehovah,{H3068} and he will save{H3467} thee.

Diverse weights{H68} are an abomination{H8441} to Jehovah;{H3068} And a false{H4820} balance{H3976} is not good.{H2896}

A man's{H1397} goings{H4703} are of Jehovah;{H3068} How then can man{H120} understand{H995} his way?{H1870}

It is a snare{H4170} to a man{H120} rashly{H3216} to say, [It is] holy,{H6944} And after{H310} vows{H5088} to make inquiry.{H1239}

A wise{H2450} king{H4428} winnoweth{H2219} the wicked,{H7563} And bringeth{H7725} the [threshing] -wheel{H212} over them.

The spirit{H5397} of man{H120} is the lamp{H5216} of Jehovah,{H3068} Searching{H2664} all his innermost{H2315} parts.{H2315}

Kindness{H2617} and truth{H571} preserve{H5341} the king;{H4428} And his throne{H3678} is upholden{H5582} by kindness.{H2617}

The glory{H8597} of young men{H970} is their strength;{H3581} And the beauty{H1926} of old men{H2205} is the hoary head.{H7872}

Stripes{H2250} that wound{H6482} cleanse{H8562} away evil;{H7451} And strokes{H4347} [reach] the innermost{H2315} parts.{H2315}
