Don\'t be envious of evil men; Neither desire to be with them: |
2
|
For their hearts plot violence, And their lips talk about mischief. |
3
|
Through wisdom a house is built; By understanding it is established; |
4
|
By knowledge the rooms are filled With all rare and beautiful treasure. |
5
|
A wise man has great power; And a knowledgeable man increases strength; |
6
|
For by wise guidance you wage your war; And victory is in many advisors. |
7
|
Wisdom is too high for a fool: He doesn\'t open his mouth in the gate. |
8
|
One who plots to do evil Will be called a schemer. |
9
|
The schemes of folly are sin. The mocker is detested by men. |
10
|
If you falter in the time of trouble, Your strength is small. |
11
|
Rescue those who are being led away to death! Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter! |
12
|
If you say, "Behold, we didn\'t know this;" Doesn\'t he who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, doesn\'t he know it? Shall he not render to every man according to his work? |
13
|
My son, eat honey, for it is good; The droppings of the honeycomb, which are sweet to your taste: |
14
|
So you shall know wisdom to be to your soul; If you have found it, then there will be a reward, Your hope will not be cut off. |
15
|
Don\'t lay in wait, wicked man, against the habitation of the righteous. Don\'t destroy his resting-place: |
16
|
For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises up again; But the wicked are overthrown by calamity. |
17
|
Don\'t rejoice when your enemy falls. Don\'t let your heart be glad when he is overthrown; |
18
|
Lest Yahweh see it, and it displease him, And he turn away his wrath from him. |
19
|
Don\'t fret yourself because of evildoers; Neither be envious of the wicked: |
20
|
For there will be no reward to the evil man; And the lamp of the wicked shall be snuffed out. |
21
|
My son, fear Yahweh and the king. Don\'t join those who are rebellious: |
22
|
For their calamity will rise suddenly; The destruction from them both�who knows? |
23
|
These also are sayings of the wise. To show partiality in judgment is not good. |
24
|
He who says to the wicked, "You are righteous;" Peoples shall curse him, and nations shall abhor him� |
25
|
But it will go well with those who convict the guilty, And a rich blessing will come on them. |
26
|
An honest answer Is like a kiss on the lips. |
27
|
Prepare your work outside, And get your fields ready. Afterwards, build your house. |
28
|
Don\'t be a witness against your neighbor without cause. Don\'t deceive with your lips. |
29
|
Don\'t say, "I will do to him as he has done to me; I will render to the man according to his work." |
30
|
I went by the field of the sluggard, By the vineyard of the man void of understanding; |
31
|
Behold, it was all grown over with thorns. Its surface was covered with nettles, And its stone wall was broken down. |
32
|
Then I saw, and considered well. I saw, and received instruction: |
33
|
A little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep; |
34
|
So shall your poverty come as a robber, And your want as an armed man. |
