The wise one will hear and he will add learning: and he understanding, shall obtain guidance:

To understand a proverb, and an enigma: the words of the wise and their parables.

The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge: the foolish despised wisdom and instruction.

If they shall say, Go with us, we will lie in wait for blood, we will hide for the innocent gratuitously;

We will swallow them down living, as hades, and whole, as they going down to the pit:

Wilt thou cast thy lot in the midst of us; one purse shall be to all:

In your terror coming as a destroying tempest, and your ruin shall come as a whirlwind; in the coming upon you of straits and distress.

If thou wilt seek her as silver, and dig for her as hidden treasure;

Whose paths are perverted, and in their tracks are bent aside:

Thou shalt not be wise in thine eyes: fear Jehovah and depart from evil.

For whom Jehovah shall love he will rebuke, as a father the son he will delight in.

She is precious above red corals: and all thy delights shall not be equal with her.

She is a tree of life to all holding upon her: and happy he holding her fast

Thou shalt not say to thy neighbor, Go, and turn back, and to-morrow I will give; and there is with thee.

For the perverse is an abomination of Jehovah: and his intercourse with the upright

The curse of Jehovah is in the house of the unjust one: and he will bless the dwelling of the just

The wise shall inherit glory, and the foolish exalt dishonor.

Lay hold upon instruction, thou shalt not let go: guard her for she is thy life.

The path of the just as the light shining, going and shining even to the day prepared.

The way of the unjust as darkness: they shall not know in what they shall stumble.

For the lips of the strange woman will drop droppings of the honeycomb, and her palate is smooth above oil:

And her latter state being bitter as wormwood; sharp as a two-mouthed sword.

As I was almost in all evil in the midst of the convocation and the assembly.

Deliver thyself as the roe from the hand, and as the bird from the hand of the fowler.

Go to the ant, thou slothful one; see her ways, and be wise:

And thy poverty came as he going, and thy want as a man of the shield.

For the command is a lamp, and the law a light; and the way of life the reproof of instruction:

For jealousy is the wrath of man, and he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

Watch my commands, and live; and my law as the pupil of thine eyes.

He went after her suddenly as the ox will go to the slaughter, and as the fetter for the correction of the foolish.

Till an arrow shall cleave his liver; as a bird hastening to the snare, and not knowing that it is for his soul.

To you, ye men, I shall call, and my voice is to the sons of man.

For my palate shall meditate the truth, and evil is the abomination of my lips.

For wisdom is good above pearls, and all delights shall not be made equal with her.

To me counsel and wisdom: I am understanding; to me is strength.

My fruit is good above gold, and above pure gold; and my gain above tried silver.

Hear ye instructions, and be wise, and ye shall not reject it

Thou shalt not reprove him mocking, lest he shall hate thee: reprove to the wise one and he will love thee.

Thou shalt give to the wise one and he will be more wise: make known to the just one and he will add receiving.

The beginning of wisdom is the fear of Jehovah, and the knowledge of the holy ones is understanding.

If thou wert wise, thou wert wise for thyself: and thou mockedst, thou alone shalt suffer.

Who is simple, he shall turn aside here: and he wanting heart, and she said to him,

Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son will gladden a father: and a son of the foolish will grieve his mother.

He gathering in summer, is a prudent son: he lying in deep sleep in harvest, a son causing shame.

The wise of heart will receive commands: and the foolish of lips shall fall.

The wise shall hide knowledge: and the mouth of the foolish drew near destruction.

The path to life is watching instruction: and he forsaking reproof goes astray.

He covering hatred with lips of falsehood, and he bringing forth slander, is foolish.

In the multitude of words transgression shall not cease: and he withholding his lips is prudent

The tongue of the just is choice silver: the heart of the unjust is as little.

As laughter to the foolish one, to do mischief: and wisdom is to the man of understanding.

As the whirlwind passing away the unjust one is not: and the just one a foundation forever.

As vinegar to the teeth and as smoke to the eyes, so is the slothful one to those sending him.

The hope of the just is gladness: and the expectation of the unjust shall perish.

The way of Jehovah is a fortress to the upright one: and destruction to those doing iniquity.

The desire of the just is only good: the expectation of the unjust, wrath.

There is scattering and yet adding; and the withholding more than right, only to want

He trusting in his riches himself shall fall: and the just shall flourish as the foliage.

He troubling his house shall inherit wind: and the foolish is servant to the wise of heart

The fruit of the just a tree of life; and he taking souls is wise.

He loving instruction loved knowledge: and he hating reproof, is stupid.

A woman of strength is a crown to her husband: and she causing shame, as rottenness in his bones.

He is good being despised, and a servant to him above him, honoring himself, and wanting bread.

In the transgression of the lips is the snare of evil: and the just one shall come forth out of straits.

The way of the foolish is right in his eyes: and the wise one heard to counsel.

There is he talking idly as the piercings of the sword: and the tongue of the wise is healing.

The slothful one shall not ensnare his hunting: and the substance of the active man is precious.

In the way of justice is life; and the way of its beaten path not death.

A wise son the instruction of a father: and he. mocking heard not reproof.

There is he making himself rich, and not anything: making himself poor, and much wealth.

The expiating of a man's soul is his riches: and the poor will not hear rebuke.

The law of the wise one a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

Good understanding shall give grace: and the way of the transgressing is perpetuity.

The unjust messenger shall fall into evil: and a messenger of faithfulness is healing.

He going with the wise, and he is wise: and the companion of the foolish shall become evil.

Much food to the fallow ground of the poor: and in no judgment there is destroying

The wise woman built her house but the foolish will pull it down with her hands.

In the month of the foolish one a rod of pride: and the lips of the wise shall watch them.

The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: and the folly of the foolish is deceit

There is a way straight before man, and its latter state the ways of death.

The wise one feared and departed from evil: and the foolish overflowing, and being confident .

He despising to his neighbor, sins: and he compassionating the poor, he is happy.

The crown of the wise is their riches: the folly of the foolish, folly.

The tongue of the wise will make knowledge good: and the mouth of the foolish will gush forth folly.

The lips of the wise will disperse knowledge: and the heart of the foolish not so.

Correction is evil to him forsaking the way: he hating reproof shall die.

He mocking will not love him reproving him: to the wise he will not go.

Good is little with the fear of Jehovah more than much treasure and confusion with it

The way of the slothful as the cutting of the thorn: and the path of the upright was raised up.

A wise son will gladden the father: and the foolish man despised his mother.

Folly is joy to him wanting heart: and the man of understanding will make straight to go.

The path of life is above to the understanding one, to depart from hades below.

Jehovah is far off from the unjust: and he will hear the prayer of the just

The ear hearing the reproof of life shall lodge in the midst of the wise.

The king's wrath, messengers of death: and a wise man shall expiate it

In the light of the king's face is life, and his acceptance as the cloud of the latter rain.

The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: to watch his ways the guarding of his soul.

He understanding shall call to the wise of heart: and sweetness of lips shall add knowledge

The understanding of him possessing it is a fountain of life: and the instruction of the foolish is folly.

The heart of the wise shall attend to his mouth, and he shall add knowledge to his lips.
