Proverbs 21
-
1 Rivulets of waters
is the heart of a king in the hand of Jehovah, Wherever He pleaseth He inclineth it. -
2 Every way of a man
is right in his own eyes, And Jehovah is pondering hearts. - 3 To do righteousness and judgment, Is chosen of Jehovah rather than sacrifice.
-
4 Loftiness of eyes, and breadth of heart, Tillage of the wicked
is sin. -
5 The purposes of the diligent
are only to advantage, And of every hasty one, only to want. -
6 The making of treasures by a lying tongue,
Is a vanity driven away of those seeking death. - 7 The spoil of the wicked catcheth them, Because they have refused to do judgment.
-
8 Froward
is the way of a man who is vile, And the pure--upright is his work. -
9 Better to sit on a corner of the roof, Than
with a woman of contentions and a house of company. - 10 The soul of the wicked hath desired evil, Not gracious in his eyes is his neighbour.
- 11 When the scorner is punished, the simple becometh wise, And in giving understanding to the wise He receiveth knowledge.
- 12 The Righteous One is acting wisely Towards the house of the wicked, He is overthrowing the wicked for wickedness.
- 13 Whoso is shutting his ear from the cry of the poor, He also doth cry, and is not answered.
- 14 A gift in secret pacifieth anger, And a bribe in the bosom strong fury.
-
15 To do justice
is joy to the righteous, But ruin to workers of iniquity. - 16 A man who is wandering from the way of understanding, In an assembly of Rephaim resteth.
-
17 Whoso
is loving mirth is a poor man, Whoso is loving wine and oil maketh no wealth. -
18 The wicked
is an atonement for the righteous, And for the upright the treacherous dealer. -
19 Better to dwell in a wilderness land, Than
with a woman of contentions and anger. -
20 A treasure to be desired, and oil,
Is in the habitation of the wise, And a foolish man swalloweth it up. - 21 Whoso is pursuing righteousness and kindness, Findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
- 22 A city of the mighty hath the wise gone up, And bringeth down the strength of its confidence.
- 23 Whoso is keeping his mouth and his tongue, Is keeping from adversities his soul.
-
24 Proud, haughty, scorner
is his name, Who is working in the wrath of pride. - 25 The desire of the slothful slayeth him, For his hands have refused to work.
- 26 All the day desiring he hath desired, And the righteous giveth and withholdeth not.
-
27 The sacrifice of the wicked
is abomination, Much more when in wickedness he bringeth it. - 28 A false witness doth perish, And an attentive man for ever speaketh.
- 29 A wicked man hath hardened by his face, And the upright--he prepareth his way.
- 30 There is no wisdom, nor understanding, Nor counsel, over-against Jehovah.
-
31 A horse is prepared for a day of battle, And the deliverance
is of Jehovah!
