Let us swallow them alive like Sheol (the place of the dead),
Even whole, as those who go down to the pit [of death];

Who is false to the husband of her early years, and does not keep the agreement of her God in mind:

She does not ponder the path of life;
Her ways are unstable, she does not know it.

Indeed, what a man does is always in the LORD's presence, and he weighs all his paths.

These six things does the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

The one who commits adultery with a woman is lacking sense;
He who would destroy himself does it.

(She is loud and rebellious, she does not remain at home --

Until an arrow pierces through his liver;
As a bird hastens to the snare,
So he does not know that it will cost him his life.

Does not wisdom call,
And understanding lift up her voice?

But he who does evil to me, does wrong to his soul: all my haters are in love with death.

The woman called Folly is brash, she is naive and does not know anything.

But he does not know that the dead are there,
That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

He who in summer gets together his store is a son who does wisely; but he who takes his rest when the grain is being cut is a son causing shame.

Where there is much talk there will be no end to sin, but he who keeps his mouth shut does wisely.

The blessing of the LORD establishes wealth, and difficulty does not accompany it.

Wealth does not profit in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from mortal danger.

At the death of an upright man his hope does not come to an end, but the hope of the evil-doer comes to destruction.

The merciful man does himself good,
But the cruel man does himself harm.

He who is steadfast in righteousness attains life,
But he who pursues evil attains his own death.

A person doesn't gain security by wickedness, but the righteous won't be uprooted.

He who does work on his land will not be short of bread; but he who goes after foolish men is without sense.

A lazy man does not roast his prey,
But the precious possession of a man is diligence.

A wise son accepts his father’s discipline,
But a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.

The hater of work does not get his desires, but the soul of the hard workers will be made fat.

The ransom for a man’s life is his wealth,
But the poor man does not even have to listen to a rebuke or threats [from the envious].

A sharp man does everything with knowledge, but a foolish man makes clear his foolish thoughts.

Whoever does not discipline his son hates him, but whoever loves him is diligent to correct him.

A true witness does not say what is false, but a false witness is breathing out deceit.

The hater of authority, searching for wisdom, does not get it; but knowledge comes readily to the open-minded man.

The heart knows its own bitterness,
And a stranger does not share its joy.

A quick tempered person does foolish things, and a devious man is hated.

The king has pleasure in a servant who does wisely, but his wrath is against him who is a cause of shame.

The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish does not so.

A scoffer does not love one who reproves him,
He will not go to the wise.

Everything a person does seems pure in his own opinion, but the LORD weighs intentions.

A divine sentence is in the lips of the king; his mouth does not transgress in judgment.

He who winks his eyes does so to devise perverse things;
He who compresses his lips brings evil to pass.

A servant who does wisely will have rule over a son causing shame, and will have his part in the heritage among brothers.

He who does evil listens to lips of wickedness, [and] the liar gives heed to the tongue of mischief.

Excellent speech does not benefit a fool [who is spiritually blind],
Much less do lying lips benefit a prince.

An offering of money is like a stone of great price in the eyes of him who has it: wherever he goes, he does well.

Why does a fool have money in his hand
with no intention of buying wisdom?

The person whose mind is perverse does not find good, and anyone with perverted speech falls into trouble.

He who sires a fool does so to his sorrow,
And the father of a fool has no joy.

A merry heart does good like a medicine: but a broken spirit dries the bones.

A fool does not delight in understanding,
But only in revealing his own mind.

When a wicked man comes, contempt also does,
and along with dishonor, disgrace.

He who does not give his mind to his work is brother to him who makes destruction.

He who makes many friends [does it] to his own destruction, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

Fearing the Lord leads to life, and one who does so will live satisfied; he will not be afflicted by calamity.

The lazy person buries his hand in his dish and doesn't bother to bring it back to his mouth.

He who assaults his father and chases away his mother
Is a son who brings shame and disgrace.

The wrath of a king is like the loud cry of a lion: he who makes him angry does wrong against himself.

The sluggard does not plow after the autumn,
So he begs during the harvest and has nothing.

Even a boy is known and distinguished by his acts,
Whether his conduct is pure and right.

Take the garment of anyone who puts up collateral for a stranger; hold it in pledge if he does it for an unfamiliar woman.

Pleasure lovers become poor; loving wine and oil doesn't bring riches.

All day long he is craving,
While the righteous gives and does not hold back.

Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse: he that does keep his soul shall be far from them.

Wisdom is too exalted for a fool,
He does not open his mouth in the gate.

If you say, See, we had no knowledge of this: does not the tester of hearts give thought to it? and he who keeps your soul, has he no knowledge of it? and will he not give to every man the reward of his work?

Like clouds and wind without rain
Is a man who boasts falsely of gifts [he does not give].

Taking your coat off when it's cold or pouring vinegar on soda that's what singing songs does to a heavy heart.

The north wind brings forth rain;
And a backbiting tongue, an angry countenance.

A man who does not control his temper
is like a city whose wall is broken down.

>

As the sparrow in her wandering and the swallow in her flight, so the curse does not come without a cause.

As the door turns on its hinges,
So does the sluggard on his bed.

Wrath is cruel, and angry feeling an overflowing stream; but who does not give way before envy?

Oil and perfume make the heart glad;
So does the sweetness of a friend’s counsel that comes from the heart.

For wealth is not for ever, and money does not go on for all generations.

He who conceals his sins doesn't prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.

A man that does violence to the blood of any person shall flee to a pit; let no man help him.

He who is ever desiring wealth goes running after money, and does not see that need will come on him.

In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous does sing and rejoice.

The righteous is concerned for the rights of the poor,
The wicked does not understand such concern.

A slave cannot be disciplined by words;
though he understands, he doesn’t respond.

An angry man is the cause of fighting, and a man given to wrath does much wrong.

Whoever shares with a thief is his own enemy; he hears the oath to testify, but does not talk.

There is a kind of man who curses his father
And does not bless his mother.

Sheol, and the barren womb, the earth that is not satisfied with water, and the fire that does not say, Enough.

The lion which is mighty among beasts
And does not retreat before any,

The heart of her husband does safely trust in her, so that he shall have no lack of gain.

She does him good and not evil
All the days of her life.

She senses that her gain is good;
Her lamp does not go out at night.

She does not fear for her house [when] it snows, for {her entire household} is clothed [in] crimson.

She looks well to the ways of her household,
And does not eat the bread of idleness.

Her children stand up and encourage her, as does her husband, who praises her:
