Proverbs 18
-
1 For
an object of desire he who is separated doth seek, With all wisdom he intermeddleth. - 2 A fool delighteth not in understanding, But--in uncovering his heart.
- 3 With the coming of the wicked come also hath contempt, And with shame--reproach.
-
4 Deep waters
are the words of a man's mouth, The fountain of wisdom is a flowing brook. -
5 Acceptance of the face of the wicked
is not good, To turn aside the righteous in judgment. - 6 The lips of a fool enter into strife, And his mouth for stripes calleth.
-
7 The mouth of a fool
is ruin to him, And his lips are the snare of his soul. -
8 The words of a tale-bearer
are as self-inflicted wounds, And they have gone down to the inner parts of the heart. -
9 He also that is remiss in his work, A brother he
is to a destroyer. -
10 A tower of strength
is the name of Jehovah, Into it the righteous runneth, and is set on high. -
11 The wealth of the rich
is the city of his strength, And as a wall set on high in his own imagination. -
12 Before destruction the heart of man is high, And before honour
is humility. - 13 Whoso is answering a matter before he heareth, Folly it is to him and shame.
- 14 The spirit of a man sustaineth his sickness, And a smitten spirit who doth bear?
- 15 The heart of the intelligent getteth knowledge, And the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
- 16 The gift of a man maketh room for him, And before the great it leadeth him.
-
17 Righteous
is the first in his own cause, His neighbour cometh and hath searched him. - 18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, And between the mighty it separateth.
- 19 A brother transgressed against is as a strong city, And contentions as the bar of a palace.
-
20 From the fruit of a man's mouth is his belly satisfied,
From the increase of his lips he is satisfied. -
21 Death and life
are in the power of the tongue, And those loving it eat its fruit. -
22
Whoso hath found a wife hath found good, And bringeth out good-will from Jehovah. -
23
With supplications doth the poor speak, And the rich answereth fierce things. -
24 A man with friends
is to show himself friendly, And there is a lover adhering more than a brother!
