1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother. | 1 מִשְׁלֵ֗י שְׁלֹ֫מֹ֥ה בֵּ֣ן חָ֭כָם יְשַׂמַּח־אָ֑ב וּבֵ֥ן כְּ֝סִ֗יל תּוּגַ֥ת אִמֹּֽו׃ | |
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death. | 2 לֹא־יֹ֭ועִילוּ אֹוצְרֹ֣ות רֶ֑שַׁע וּ֝צְדָקָ֗ה תַּצִּ֥יל מִמָּֽוֶת׃ | |
3 The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked. | 3 לֹֽא־יַרְעִ֣יב יְ֭הוָה נֶ֣פֶשׁ צַדִּ֑יק וְהַוַּ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים יֶהְדֹּֽף׃ | |
4 He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. | 4 רָ֗אשׁ עֹשֶׂ֥ה כַף־רְמִיָּ֑ה וְיַ֖ד חָרוּצִ֣ים תַּעֲשִֽׁיר׃ | |
5 He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame. | 5 אֹגֵ֣ר בַּ֭קַּיִץ בֵּ֣ן מַשְׂכִּ֑יל נִרְדָּ֥ם בַּ֝קָּצִ֗יר בֵּ֣ן מֵבִֽישׁ׃ | |
6 Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked. | 6 בְּ֭רָכֹות לְרֹ֣אשׁ צַדִּ֑יק וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יְכַסֶּ֥ה חָמָֽס׃ | |
7 The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall perish. | 7 זֵ֣כֶר צַ֭דִּיק לִבְרָכָ֑ה וְשֵׁ֖ם רְשָׁעִ֣ים יִרְקָֽב׃ | |
8 The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall. | 8 חֲכַם־לֵ֭ב יִקַּ֣ח מִצְוֹ֑ת וֶאֱוִ֥יל פָתַ֗יִם יִלָּבֵֽט׃ | |
9 He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known. | 9 הֹולֵ֣ךְ בַּ֭תֹּם יֵ֣לֶךְ בֶּ֑טַח וּמְעַקֵּ֥שׁ דְּ֝רָכָ֗יו יִוָּדֵֽעַ׃ | |
10 He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall. | 10 קֹ֣רֵֽץ3 עַ֭יִן יִתֵּ֣ן עַצָּ֑בֶת וֶאֱוִ֥יל פָתַ֗יִם יִלָּבֵֽט׃ | |
11 The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked. | 11 מְקֹ֣ור חַ֭יִּים פִּ֣י צַדִּ֑יק וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יְכַסֶּ֥ה חָמָֽס׃ | |
12 Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins. | 12 נְאָה תְּעֹורֵ֣ר מְדָנִ֑ים וְעַ֥ל כָּל־פְּ֝שָׁעִ֗ים תְּכַסֶּ֥ה אַהֲבָֽה׃ | |
13 In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding. | 13 בְּשִׂפְתֵ֣י נָ֭בֹון תִּמָּצֵ֣א חָכְמָ֑ה וְ֝שֵׁ֗בֶט לְגֵ֣ו חֲסַר־לֵֽב׃ | |
14 Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction. | 14 חֲכָמִ֥ים יִצְפְּנוּ־דָ֑עַת וּפִֽי־אֱ֝וִיל מְחִתָּ֥ה קְרֹבָֽה׃ | |
15 The rich man's wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the poor is their poverty. | 15 הֹ֣ון עָ֭שִׁיר קִרְיַ֣ת עֻזֹּ֑ו מְחִתַּ֖ת דַּלִּ֣ים רֵישָֽׁם׃ | |
16 The labor of the righteous tendeth to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin. | 16 פְּעֻלַּ֣ת צַדִּ֣יק לְחַיִּ֑ים תְּבוּאַ֖ת רָשָׁ֣ע לְחַטָּֽאת׃ | |
17 He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth. | 17 אֹ֣רַח לְ֭חַיִּים שֹׁומֵ֣ר מוּסָ֑ר וְעֹוזֵ֖ב תֹּוכַ֣חַת מַתְעֶֽה׃ | |
18 He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool. | 18 מְכַסֶּ֣ה נְאָה שִׂפְתֵי־שָׁ֑קֶר וּמֹוצִ֥א דִ֝בָּ֗ה ה֣וּא כְסִֽיל׃ | |
19 In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that restraineth his lips is wise. | 19 בְּרֹ֣ב דְּ֭בָרִים לֹ֣א יֶחְדַּל־פָּ֑שַׁע וְחֹשֵׂ֖ךְ שְׂפָתָ֣יו מַשְׂכִּֽיל׃ | |
20 The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth. | 20 כֶּ֣סֶף נִ֭בְחָר לְשֹׁ֣ון צַדִּ֑יק לֵ֖ב רְשָׁעִ֣ים כִּמְעָֽט׃ | |
21 The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom. | 21 שִׂפְתֵ֣י צַ֭דִּיק יִרְע֣וּ רַבִּ֑ים וֶֽ֝אֱוִילִ֗ים בַּחֲסַר־לֵ֥ב יָמֽוּתוּ׃ | |
22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. | 22 בִּרְכַּ֣ת יְ֭הוָה הִ֣יא תַעֲשִׁ֑יר וְלֹֽא־יֹוסִ֖ף עֶ֣צֶב עִמָּֽהּ׃ | |
23 It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom. | 23 כִּשְׂחֹ֣וק לִ֭כְסִיל עֲשֹׂ֣ות זִמָּ֑ה וְ֝חָכְמָ֗ה לְאִ֣ישׁ תְּבוּנָֽה׃ | |
24 The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: but the desire of the righteous shall be granted. | 24 מְגֹורַ֣ת רָ֭שָׁע הִ֣יא תְבֹואֶ֑נּוּ וְתַאֲוַ֖ת צַדִּיקִ֣ים יִתֵּֽן׃ | |
25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation. | 25 כַּעֲבֹ֣ור ס֭וּפָה3 וְאֵ֣ין רָשָׁ֑ע וְ֝צַדִּ֗יק יְסֹ֣וד עֹולָֽם׃ | |
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him. | 26 כַּחֹ֤מֶץ׀ לַשִּׁנַּ֗יִם וְכֶעָשָׁ֥ן לָעֵינָ֑יִם כֵּ֥ן הֶ֝עָצֵ֗ל לְשֹׁלְחָֽיו׃ | |
27 The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the wicked shall be shortened. | 27 יִרְאַ֣ת יְ֭הוָה תֹּוסִ֣יף יָמִ֑ים וּשְׁנֹ֖ות רְשָׁעִ֣ים תִּקְצֹֽרְנָה׃ | |
28 The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish. | 28 תֹּוחֶ֣לֶת צַדִּיקִ֣ים שִׂמְחָ֑ה וְתִקְוַ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים תֹּאבֵֽד׃ | |
29 The way of the LORD is strength to the upright: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity. | 29 מָעֹ֣וז לַ֭תֹּם דֶּ֣רֶךְ יְהוָ֑ה וּ֝מְחִתָּ֗ה לְפֹ֣עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃ | |
30 The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth. | 30 צַדִּ֣יק לְעֹולָ֣ם בַּל־יִמֹּ֑וט וּ֝רְשָׁעִ֗ים לֹ֣א יִשְׁכְּנוּ־אָֽרֶץ׃ | |
31 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out. | 31 פִּֽי־צַ֭דִּיק יָנ֣וּב חָכְמָ֑ה וּלְשֹׁ֥ון תַּ֝הְפֻּכֹ֗ות תִּכָּרֵֽת׃ | |
32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness. | 32 שִׂפְתֵ֣י צַ֭דִּיק יֵדְע֣וּן רָצֹ֑ון וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים תַּהְפֻּכֹֽות׃ | |
