My son, do not walk in the way with them! Keep back your foot from their path,

for their feet run to evil and make haste to shed blood.

then you shall walk in your way safely, and your foot shall not stumble.

For Jehovah shall be your hope, and shall keep your foot from being taken.

Ponder the path of your feet, and all your ways will be established.

Do not turn to the right hand nor to the left; remove your foot from evil.

Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell,

provides her food in the summer and gathers her food in the harvest.

winking with his eyes, speaking with his feet, teaching with his fingers;

a heart that plots wicked plans, feet hurrying to run to evil,

Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

She is loud and stubborn; her feet do not stay in her house;

The lips of the righteous feed many; but fools die for lack of wisdom.

The soul who gives freely shall be made fat; and he who waters shall also be watered himself.

The soul of the sluggard desires and has nothing; but the soul of the hard worker shall be made fat.

Much food is in the plowed ground of the poor, but when there is no justice, it is swept away.

The light of the eyes rejoices the heart; a good report makes the bones fat.

Also without knowledge the soul is not good, and he who hurries with his feet sins.

Do not desire his delicacies, for they are deceitful food.

Prepare your work outside, and make it fit for yourself in the field; and afterwards build your house.

Do not go forth quickly to fight, lest you know not what to do in the end of it, when your neighbor has put you to shame.

Withdraw your foot from your neighbor's house, lest he be weary of you and hate you.

Trust in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.

He who sends a message by the hand of a fool cuts off the feet and drinks down damage.

And you shall have goats' milk enough for your food, for the food of your household, and a living for your young women.

A poor man who crushes the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaves no food.

He who is of a proud heart stirs up fighting; but he who puts his trust in Jehovah shall be made fat.

A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.

for a servant when he reigns; and a fool when he is filled with food;

the ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their food in the summer;

She is like the merchants' ships; she brings her food from afar.

She also rises while it is still night, and gives food to her household, and a share to her young women.
