1
He that separateth himself seeketh his own desire, And rageth against all sound wisdom.
2
A fool hath no delight in understanding, But only that his heart may reveal itself.
3
When the wicked cometh, there cometh also contempt, And with ignominy cometh reproach.
4
The words of a mans mouth are as deep waters; The wellspring of wisdom is as a flowing brook.
5
To respect the person of the wicked is not good, Nor to turn aside the righteous in judgment.
6
A fools lips enter into contention, And his mouth calleth for stripes.
7
A fools mouth is his destruction, And his lips are the snare of his soul.
8
The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, And they go down into the innermost parts.
9
He also that is slack in his work Is brother to him that is a destroyer.
10
The name of Jehovah is a strong tower; The righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
11
The rich mans wealth is his strong city, And as a high wall in his own imagination.
12
Before destruction the heart of man is haughty; And before honor goeth humility.
13
He that giveth answer before he heareth, It is folly and shame unto him.
14
The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; But a broken spirit who can bear?
15
The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; And the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16
A mans gift maketh room for him, And bringeth him before great men.
17
He that pleadeth his cause first seemeth just; But his neighbor cometh and searcheth him out.
18
The lot causeth contentions to cease, And parteth between the mighty.
19
A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city; And such contentions are like the bars of a castle.
20
A mans belly shall be filled with the fruit of his mouth; With the increase of his lips shall he be satisfied.
21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue; And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
22
Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, And obtaineth favor of Jehovah.
23
The poor useth entreaties; But the rich answereth roughly.
24
He that maketh many friends doeth it to his own destruction; But there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
