Proverbs 28
- 1 The wicked have fled and there is no pursuer. And the righteous as a young lion is confident.
-
2 By the transgression of a land many
are its heads. And by an intelligent man, Who knoweth right--it is prolonged. -
3 A man--poor and oppressing the weak,
Is a sweeping rain, and there is no bread. - 4 Those forsaking the law praise the wicked, Those keeping the law plead against them.
- 5 Evil men understand not judgment, And those seeking Jehovah understand all.
-
6 Better
is the poor walking in his integrity, Than the perverse of ways who is rich. - 7 Whoso is keeping the law is an intelligent son, And a friend of gluttons, Doth cause his father to blush.
- 8 Whoso is multiplying his wealth by biting and usury, For one favouring the poor doth gather it.
-
9 Whoso is turning his ear from hearing the law, Even his prayer
is an abomination. - 10 Whoso is causing the upright to err in an evil way, Into his own pit he doth fall, And the perfect do inherit good.
- 11 A rich man is wise in his own eyes, And the intelligent poor searcheth him.
-
12 In the exulting of the righteous the glory
is abundant, And in the rising of the wicked man is apprehensive. - 13 Whoso is covering his transgressions prospereth not, And he who is confessing and forsaking hath mercy.
- 14 O the happiness of a man fearing continually, And whoso is hardening his heart falleth into evil.
-
15 A growling lion, and a ranging bear,
Is the wicked ruler over a poor people. - 16 A leader lacking understanding multiplieth oppressions, Whoso is hating dishonest gain prolongeth days.
- 17 A man oppressed with the blood of a soul, Unto the pit fleeth, none taketh hold on him.
- 18 Whoso is walking uprightly is saved, And the perverted of ways falleth at once.
-
19 Whoso is tilling his ground is satisfied
with bread, And whoso is pursuing vanity, Is filled with poverty. - 20 A stedfast man hath multiplied blessings, And whoso is hasting to be rich is not acquitted.
- 21 To discern faces is not good, And for a piece of bread doth a man transgress.
-
22 Troubled for wealth
is the man with an evil eye, And he knoweth not that want doth meet him. - 23 Whoso is reproving a man afterwards findeth grace, More than a flatterer with the tongue.
- 24 Whoso is robbing his father, or his mother, And is saying, `It is not transgression,' A companion he is to a destroyer.
- 25 Whoso is proud in soul stirreth up contention, And whoso is trusting on Jehovah is made fat.
- 26 Whoso is trusting in his heart is a fool, And whoso is walking in wisdom is delivered.
- 27 Whoso is giving to the poor hath no lack, And whoso is hiding his eyes multiplied curses.
- 28 In the rising of the wicked a man is hidden, And in their destruction the righteous multiply!
