Proverbs Chapter 10
|
|||
|
|
1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son makes a glad father; but a foolish son brings grief to his mother.
|
|||
|
|
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, but righteousness delivers from death.
|
|||
|
|
3 Yahweh will not allow the soul of the righteous to go hungry, but he thrusts away the desire of the wicked.
|
|||
|
|
4 He becomes poor who works with a lazy hand, but the hand of the diligent brings wealth.
|
|||
|
|
5 He who gathers in summer is a wise son, but he who sleeps during the harvest is a son who causes shame.
|
|||
|
|
6 Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
|
|||
|
|
7 The memory of the righteous is blessed, but the name of the wicked will rot.
|
|||
|
|
8 The wise in heart accept commandments, but a chattering fool will fall.
|
|||
|
|
9 He who walks blamelessly walks surely, but he who perverts his ways will be found out.
|
|||
|
|
10 One who winks with the eye causes sorrow, but a chattering fool will fall.
|
|||
|
|
11 The mouth of the righteous is a spring of life, but violence covers the mouth of the wicked.
|
|||
|
|
12 Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all wrongs.
|
|||
|
|
13 Wisdom is found on the lips of him who has discernment, but a rod is for the back of him who is void of understanding.
|
|||
|
|
14 Wise men lay up knowledge, but the mouth of the foolish is near ruin.
|
|||
|
|
15 The rich man’s wealth is his strong city. The destruction of the poor is their poverty.
|
|||
|
|
16 The labor of the righteous leads to life. The increase of the wicked leads to sin.
|
|||
|
|
17 He is in the way of life who heeds correction, but he who forsakes reproof leads others astray.
|
|||
|
|
18 He who hides hatred has lying lips. He who utters a slander is a fool.
|
|||
|
|
19 In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely.
|
|||
|
|
20 The tongue of the righteous is like choice silver. The heart of the wicked is of little worth.
|
|||
|
|
21 The lips of the righteous feed many, but the foolish die for lack of understanding.
|
|||
|
|
22 Yahweh’s blessing brings wealth, and he adds no trouble to it.
|
|||
|
|
23 It is a fool’s pleasure to do wickedness, but wisdom is a man of understanding’s pleasure.
|
|||
|
|
24 What the wicked fear will overtake them, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.
|
|||
|
|
25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more; but the righteous stand firm forever.
|
|||
|
|
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to those who send him.
|
|||
|
|
27 The fear of Yahweh prolongs days, but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
|
|||
|
|
28 The prospect of the righteous is joy, but the hope of the wicked will perish.
|
|||
|
|
29 The way of Yahweh is a stronghold to the upright, but it is a destruction to the workers of iniquity.
|
|||
|
|
30 The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not dwell in the land.
|
|||
|
|
31 The mouth of the righteous produces wisdom, but the perverse tongue will be cut off.
|
|||
|
|
32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked is perverse.
