A wise H2450 AMS [ man ] will hear H8085 VQY3MS , and will increase H3254 W-VHI3MS learning H3948 NMS ; and a man of understanding H995 W-VNPMS shall attain H7069 VQY3MS unto wise counsels H8458 NFP :
To understand H995 L-VHFC a proverb H4912 NMS , and the interpretation H4426 W-NFS ; the words H1697 CMP of the wise H2450 AMP , and their dark sayings H2420 W-CFS-3MP .
The fear H3374 CFS of the LORD H3068 EDS [ is ] the beginning H7225 CFS of knowledge H1847 NFS : [ but ] fools H191 NMP despise H936 VQQ3MP wisdom H2451 NFS and instruction H4148 W-NMS .
My son H1121 NMS-1MS , hear H8085 VQI2MS the instruction H4148 CMS of thy father H1 NMS , and forsake H5203 VQY2MS not H408 W-NPAR the law H8451 CFS of thy mother H517 CFS-2MS :
For H3588 CONJ they H1992 PPRO-3MP [ shall ] [ be ] an ornament H3880 CFS of grace H2580 NMS unto thy head H7218 L-CMS-2MS , and chains H6060 W-NMP about thy neck H1621 L-CFP-2MS .
If H518 PART they say H559 VQY3MP , Come H1980 VQI2MS-3FS with H854 PREP-1MP us , let us lay wait H693 VQI1MP for blood H1818 L-NMS , let us lurk privily H6845 VQY1MP for the innocent H5355 L-AMS without cause H2600 ADV :
Let us swallow them up H1104 VQI1MP-3MP alive H2416 NMP as the grave H7585 K-NMS ; and whole H8549 W-AMP , as those that go down H3381 K-VQCMP into the pit H953 NMS :
My son H1121 NMS-1MS , walk H1980 VQY2MS not H408 NPAR thou in the way H1870 B-NMS with H854 PREP-3MP them ; refrain H4513 VQI2MS thy foot H7272 CFS-2MS from their path H5410 M-CFS-3MP :
And they H1992 W-PPRO-3MP lay wait H693 VQY3MP for their [ own ] blood H1818 L-CMS-3MP ; they lurk privily H6845 VQY3MP for their [ own ] lives H5315 L-CFP-3MP .
So H3651 ADV [ are ] the ways H734 CFP of every one H3605 NMS that is greedy H1214 NMS of gain H1215 NMS ; [ which ] taketh away H3947 VQY3MS the life H5315 GFS of the owners H1167 CMP-3MS thereof .
She crieth H7121 VQI2MS in the chief H7218 B-NMS place of concourse H1993 VQPFP , in the openings H6607 B-CMP of the gates H8179 NMP : in the city H5892 BD-NFS she uttereth H559 VQY3FS her words H561 CMP-3FS , [ saying ] ,
How long H5704 PREP , ye simple ones H6612 NMP , will ye love H157 VQY2MP simplicity H6612 NMS ? and the scorners H3887 W-VQPMP delight H2530 VQQ3MP in their scorning H3944 NMS , and fools H3684 W-NMP hate H8130 VQY3MP knowledge H1847 NFS ?
Turn H7725 VQY2MP you at my reproof H8433 L-CFS-1MS : behold H2009 IJEC , I will pour out H5042 VHI1MS my spirit H7307 CFS-1MS unto you , I will make known H3045 VHI1MS my words H1697 CMP-1MS unto you .
Because H3282 ADV I have called H7121 VQQ1CS , and ye refused H3985 W-VPY2MP ; I have stretched out H5186 VQQ1MS my hand H3027 CFS-1MS , and no man H369 W-NPAR regarded H7181 VHPMS ;
I H589 PPRO-1MS also H1571 CONJ will laugh H7832 VQY1MS at your calamity H343 B-CMS-2MP ; I will mock H3932 VQY1MS when your fear H6343 CMS-2MP cometh H935 B-VQFC ;
When your fear H6343 CMS-2MP cometh H935 B-VQFC as desolation H7722 , and your destruction H343 W-CMS-3MP cometh H857 VQY3MS as a whirlwind H5492 K-VQFC ; when distress H6869 NFS and anguish H6695 W-NFS cometh H935 B-VQFC upon H5921 PREP-2MP you .
Then H227 ADV shall they call upon H7121 VQY3MP-3FP-1MS me , but I will not H3808 W-NPAR answer H6030 VQY1MS ; they shall seek me early H7836 VPY3MP-3FP-1MS , but they shall not H3808 W-NPAR find H4672 VQY3MP-3FP-1MS me :
Therefore shall they eat H398 W-VQY3MP of the fruit H6529 M-CMS of their own way H1870 CMS-3MP , and be filled H7646 VQY3MP with their own devices H4156 WM-CFP-3MP .
For H3588 CONJ the turning away H4878 CFS of the simple H6612 NMP shall slay H2026 VQY3FS-3MP them , and the prosperity H7962 W-CFS of fools H3684 NMP shall destroy H6 VPY3FS-3MP them .
But whoso hearkeneth H8085 W-VQPMS unto me shall dwell H7931 VQY3MS safely H983 NMS , and shall be quiet H7599 W-VPQ3MS from fear H6343 M-CMS of evil H7451 AFS .
