The Lord made me as the start of his way, the first of his works in the past.

When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

To call to them that pass by, Who go right on their ways:

But he does not know that the spirits of the dead are there,
And that her guests are [already] in the depths of Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead).

Loving and favorable is the face of the righteous; but the forehead of the ungodly is past shame, and presumptuous.

The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life; but the mouth of the ungodly is past shame, and presumptuous.

When the storm-wind is past, the sinner is seen no longer, but the upright man is safe for ever.

Hope deferred maketh the heart sick; but the desire that cometh to pass is a tree of life.

When a desire is brought to pass, it delighteth the soul; but fools count it abomination to depart from evil.

He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.

The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Or he who hears it will reproach you,
And the evil report about you will not pass away.

As an archer that woundeth all, So is he that hireth a fool and he that hireth them that pass by.

A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Give strong drink [as medicine] to him who is ready to pass away,
And wine to him whose life is bitter.
