| 001:001 | The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel; |
| 001:002 | To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; |
| 001:003 | To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity; |
| 001:004 | To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion. |
| 001:005 | A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels: |
| 001:006 | To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings. |
| 001:007 | The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. |
| 001:008 | My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: |
| 001:009 | For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck. |
| 001:010 | My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. |
| 001:011 | If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause: |
| 001:012 | Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit: |
| 001:013 | We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil: |
| 001:014 | Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse: |
| 001:015 | My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path: |
| 001:016 | For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood. |
| 001:017 | Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird. |
| 001:018 | And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives. |
| 001:019 | So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof. |
| 001:020 | Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets: |
| 001:021 | She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying, |
| 001:022 | How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? |
| 001:023 | Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. |
| 001:024 | Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; |
| 001:025 | But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: |
| 001:026 | I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; |
| 001:027 | When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. |
| 001:028 | Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: |
| 001:029 | For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: |
| 001:030 | They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof. |
| 001:031 | Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices. |
| 001:032 | For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them. |
| 001:033 | But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil. |
| 002:001 | My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; |
| 002:002 | So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; |
| 002:003 | Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; |
| 002:004 | If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; |
| 002:005 | Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God. |
| 002:006 | For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. |
| 002:007 | He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. |
| 002:008 | He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints. |
| 002:009 | Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path. |
| 002:010 | When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul; |
| 002:011 | Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee: |
| 002:012 | To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things; |
| 002:013 | Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness; |
| 002:014 | Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked; |
| 002:015 | Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths: |
| 002:016 | To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words; |
| 002:017 | Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God. |
| 002:018 | For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead. |
| 002:019 | None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life. |
| 002:020 | That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous. |
| 002:021 | For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it. |
| 002:022 | But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it. |
| 003:001 | My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: |
| 003:002 | For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee. |
| 003:003 | Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: |
| 003:004 | So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man. |
| 003:005 | Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. |
| 003:006 | In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. |
| 003:007 | Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. |
| 003:008 | It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. |
| 003:009 | Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: |
| 003:010 | So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine. |
| 003:011 | My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction: |
| 003:012 | For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth. |
| 003:013 | Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. |
| 003:014 | For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold. |
| 003:015 | She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. |
| 003:016 | Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour. |
| 003:017 | Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. |
| 003:018 | She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her. |
| 003:019 | The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens. |
| 003:020 | By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew. |
| 003:021 | My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion: |
| 003:022 | So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck. |
| 003:023 | Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble. |
| 003:024 | When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. |
| 003:025 | Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. |
| 003:026 | For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken. |
| 003:027 | Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. |
| 003:028 | Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee. |
| 003:029 | Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee. |
| 003:030 | Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm. |
| 003:031 | Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways. |
| 003:032 | For the froward is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous. |
| 003:033 | The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just. |
| 003:034 | Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly. |
| 003:035 | The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools. |
| 004:001 | Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding. |
| 004:002 | For I give you good doctrine, forsake ye not my law. |
| 004:003 | For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother. |
| 004:004 | He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live. |
| 004:005 | Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. |
| 004:006 | Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee. |
| 004:007 | Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. |
| 004:008 | Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her. |
| 004:009 | She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee. |
| 004:010 | Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many. |
| 004:011 | I have taught thee in the way of wisdom; I have led thee in right paths. |
| 004:012 | When thou goest, thy steps shall not be straitened; and when thou runnest, thou shalt not stumble. |
| 004:013 | Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is thy life. |
| 004:014 | Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men. |
| 004:015 | Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away. |
| 004:016 | For they sleep not, except they have done mischief; and their sleep is taken away, unless they cause some to fall. |
| 004:017 | For they eat the bread of wickedness, and drink the wine of violence. |
| 004:018 | But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. |
| 004:019 | The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble. |
| 004:020 | My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. |
| 004:021 | Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. |
| 004:022 | For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. |
| 004:023 | Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. |
| 004:024 | Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee. |
| 004:025 | Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. |
| 004:026 | Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. |
| 004:027 | Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil. |
