A wise{H2450} son{H1121} heareth his father's{H1} instruction{H4148}: but a scorner{H3887}{(H8801)} heareth{H8085}{(H8804)} not rebuke{H1606}.

A man{H376} shall eat{H398}{(H8799)} good{H2896} by the fruit{H6529} of his mouth{H6310}: but the soul{H5315} of the transgressors{H898}{(H8802)} shall eat violence{H2555}.

He that keepeth{H5341}{(H8802)} his mouth{H6310} keepeth{H8104}{(H8802)} his life{H5315}: but he that openeth wide{H6589}{(H8802)} his lips{H8193} shall have destruction{H4288}.

The soul{H5315} of the sluggard{H6102} desireth{H183}{(H8693)}, and hath nothing: but the soul{H5315} of the diligent{H2742} shall be made fat{H1878}{(H8792)}.

A righteous{H6662} man hateth{H8130}{(H8799)} lying{H1697}{H8267}: but a wicked{H7563} man is loathsome{H887}{(H8686)}, and cometh to shame{H2659}{(H8686)}.

Righteousness{H6666} keepeth{H5341}{(H8799)} him that is upright{H8537} in the way{H1870}: but wickedness{H7564} overthroweth{H5557}{(H8762)} the sinner{H2403}.

There is{H3426} that maketh himself rich{H6238}{(H8693)}, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor{H7326}{(H8711)}, yet{H3605} hath great{H7227} riches{H1952}.

The ransom{H3724} of a man's{H376} life{H5315} are his riches{H6239}: but the poor{H7326}{(H8802)} heareth{H8085}{(H8804)} not rebuke{H1606}.

The light{H216} of the righteous{H6662} rejoiceth{H8055}{(H8799)}: but the lamp{H5216} of the wicked{H7563} shall be put out{H1846}{(H8799)}.

Only by pride{H2087} cometh{H5414}{(H8799)} contention{H4683}: but with the well advised{H3289}{(H8737)} is wisdom{H2451}.

Wealth{H1952} gotten by vanity{H1892} shall be diminished{H4591}{(H8799)}: but he that gathereth{H6908}{(H8802)} by labour{H3027} shall increase{H7235}{(H8686)}.

Hope{H8431} deferred{H4900}{(H8794)} maketh the heart{H3820} sick{H2470}{(H8688)}: but when the desire{H8378} cometh{H935}{(H8802)}, it is a tree{H6086} of life{H2416}.

Whoso despiseth{H936}{(H8802)} the word{H1697} shall be destroyed{H2254}{(H8735)}: but he that feareth{H3373} the commandment{H4687} shall be rewarded{H7999}{(H8792)}.

The law{H8451} of the wise{H2450} is a fountain{H4726} of life{H2416}, to depart{H5493}{(H8800)} from the snares{H4170} of death{H4194}.

Good{H2896} understanding{H7922} giveth{H5414}{(H8799)} favour{H2580}: but the way{H1870} of transgressors{H898}{(H8802)} is hard{H386}.

Every prudent{H6175} man dealeth{H6213}{(H8799)} with knowledge{H1847}: but a fool{H3684} layeth open{H6566}{(H8799)} his folly{H200}.

A wicked{H7563} messenger{H4397} falleth{H5307}{(H8799)} into mischief{H7451}: but a faithful{H529} ambassador{H6735} is health{H4832}.

Poverty{H7389} and shame{H7036} shall be to him that refuseth{H6544}{(H8802)} instruction{H4148}: but he that regardeth{H8104}{(H8802)} reproof{H8433} shall be honoured{H3513}{(H8792)}.

The desire{H8378} accomplished{H1961}{(H8738)} is sweet{H6149}{(H8799)} to the soul{H5315}: but it is abomination{H8441} to fools{H3684} to depart{H5493}{(H8800)} from evil{H7451}.

He that walketh{H1980}{(H8802)} with wise{H2450} men shall be wise{H2449}{(H8799)}: but a companion{H7462}{(H8802)} of fools{H3684} shall be destroyed{H7321}{(H8735)}.

Evil{H7451} pursueth{H7291}{(H8762)} sinners{H2400}: but to the righteous{H6662} good{H2896} shall be repayed{H7999}{(H8762)}.

A good{H2896} man leaveth an inheritance{H5157}{(H8686)} to his children's{H1121} children{H1121}: and the wealth{H2428} of the sinner{H2398}{(H8802)} is laid up{H6845}{(H8803)} for the just{H6662}.

Much{H7230} food{H400} is in the tillage{H5215} of the poor{H7218}{(H8676)}{H7326}{(H8802)}: but there is{H3426} that is destroyed{H5595}{(H8737)} for want{H3808} of judgment{H4941}.

He that spareth{H2820}{(H8802)} his rod{H7626} hateth{H8130}{(H8802)} his son{H1121}: but he that loveth{H157}{(H8802)} him chasteneth{H4148} him betimes{H7836}{(H8765)}.

The righteous{H6662} eateth{H398}{(H8802)} to the satisfying{H7648} of his soul{H5315}: but the belly{H990} of the wicked{H7563} shall want{H2637}{(H8799)}.
