Proverbs 14
- 1 Every wise woman hath builded her house, And the foolish with her hands breaketh it down.
-
2 Whoso is walking in his uprightness is fearing Jehovah, And the perverted
in his ways is despising Him. -
3 In the mouth of a fool
is a rod of pride, And the lips of the wise preserve them. -
4 Without oxen a stall
is clean, And great is the increase by the power of the ox. - 5 A faithful witness lieth not, And a false witness breatheth out lies.
-
6 A scorner hath sought wisdom, and it is not, And knowledge to the intelligent
is easy. - 7 Go from before a foolish man, Or thou hast not known the lips of knowledge.
-
8 The wisdom of the prudent
is to understand his way, And the folly of fools is deceit. - 9 Fools mock at a guilt-offering, And among the upright--a pleasing thing.
- 10 The heart knoweth its own bitterness, And with its joy a stranger doth not intermeddle.
- 11 The house of the wicked is destroyed, And the tent of the upright flourisheth.
-
12 There is a way--right before a man, And its latter end
are ways of death. -
13 Even in laughter is the heart pained, And the latter end of joy
is affliction. - 14 From his ways is the backslider in heart filled, And a good man--from his fruits.
- 15 The simple giveth credence to everything, And the prudent attendeth to his step.
- 16 The wise is fearing and turning from evil, And a fool is transgressing and is confident.
- 17 Whoso is short of temper doth folly, And a man of wicked devices is hated.
-
18 The simple have inherited folly, And the prudent are crowned
with knowledge. - 19 The evil have bowed down before the good, And the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
-
20 Even of his neighbour is the poor hated, And those loving the rich
are many. - 21 Whoso is despising his neighbour sinneth, Whoso is favouring the humble, O his happiness.
-
22 Do not they err who are devising evil? And kindness and truth
are to those devising good, -
23 In all labour there is advantage, And a thing of the lips
is only to want. -
24 The crown of the wise is their wealth, The folly of fools
is folly. - 25 A true witness is delivering souls, And a deceitful one breatheth out lies.
-
26 In the fear of Jehovah
is strong confidence, And to His sons there is a refuge. -
27 The fear of Jehovah
is a fountain of life, To turn aside from snares of death. -
28 In the multitude of a people
is the honour of a king, And in lack of people the ruin of a prince. -
29 Whoso is slow to anger
is of great understanding, And whoso is short in temper is exalting folly. -
30 A healed heart
is life to the flesh, And rottenness to the bones is envy. - 31 An oppressor of the poor reproacheth his Maker, And whoso is honouring Him Is favouring the needy.
-
32 In his wickedness is the wicked driven away, And trustful in his death
is the righteous. - 33 In the heart of the intelligent wisdom doth rest. And in the midst of fools it is known.
-
34 Righteousness exalteth a nation, And the goodliness of peoples
is a sin-offering. -
35 The favour of a king
is to a wise servant, And an object of his wrath is one causing shame!
