1
Better
is a dry
morsel
and quietness
with it Than
a house
full
of feasting
with strife.
2
A servant
who acts wisely
will rule
over a son
who acts shamefully,
And will share
in the inheritance
among
brothers.
3
The refining pot
is for silver
and the furnace
for gold,
But the LORD
tests
hearts.
4
An evildoer
listens
to wicked
lips;
A liar
pays attention
to a destructive
tongue.
5
He who mocks
the poor
taunts
his Maker;
He who rejoices
at calamity
will not go unpunished.
6
Grandchildren
are the crown
of old men,
And the glory
of sons
is their fathers.
7
Excellent
speech
is not fitting
for a fool,
Much
less
are lying
lips
to a prince.
8
A bribe
is a charm
in the sight
of its owner;
Wherever
he turns,
he prospers.
9
He who conceals
a transgression
seeks
love,
But he who repeats
a matter
separates
intimate friends.
10
A rebuke
goes deeper
into one who has understanding
Than
a hundred
blows
into a fool.
11
A rebellious man
seeks
only
evil,
So a cruel
messenger
will be sent
against him.
12
Let a man
meet
a bear
robbed of her cubs,
Rather
than a fool
in his folly.
13
He who returns
evil
for good,
Evil
will not depart
from his house.
14
The beginning
of strife
is like letting
out water,
So abandon
the quarrel
before
it breaks
out.
15
He who justifies
the wicked
and he who condemns
the righteous,
Both
of them alike
are an abomination
to the LORD.
16
Why
is there a price
in the hand
of a fool
to buy
wisdom,
When he has no
sense?
17
A friend
loves
at all
times,
And a brother
is born
for adversity.
18
A man
lacking
in sense
pledges
And becomes
guarantor
in the presence
of his neighbor.
19
He who
loves
transgression
loves
strife;
He who raises
his door
seeks
destruction.
20
He who has a crooked
mind
finds
no
good,
And he who is perverted
in his language
falls
into evil.
21
He who sires
a fool
does so to his sorrow,
And the father
of
a fool
has
no
joy.
22
A joyful
heart
is good
medicine,
But a broken
spirit
dries
up the bones.
23
A wicked man
receives
a bribe
from the bosom
To pervert
the ways
of justice.
24
Wisdom
is in the presence
of the one who has understanding,
But the eyes
of a fool
are on the ends
of the earth.
25
A foolish
son
is a grief
to his father
And bitterness
to her who bore
him.
26
It is also
not good
to fine
the righteous,
Nor to strike
the noble
for their uprightness.
27
He who restrains
his words
has
knowledge,
And he who
has
a cool
spirit
is a man
of understanding.
28
Even
a fool,
when he keeps silent,
is considered
wise;
When he closes
his lips,
he
is considered
prudent.
