1
The wicked
flee
when no one
is pursuing,
But the righteous
are bold
as a lion.
2
By the transgression
of a land
many
are its princes,
But by a man
of understanding
and knowledge,
so
it endures.
3
A poor
man
who oppresses
the lowly
Is like a driving
rain
which leaves no
food.
4
Those who forsake
the law
praise
the wicked,
But those who keep
the law
strive
with them.
5
Evil
men
do not
understand
justice,
But those who seek
the LORD
understand
all things.
6
Better
is the poor
who walks
in his integrity
Than
he who is crooked
though he be rich.
7
He who keeps
the law
is a discerning
son,
But he who is a companion
of gluttons
humiliates
his father.
8
He who increases
his wealth
by interest
and usury
Gathers
it for him who is gracious
to the poor.
9
He who turns away
his ear
from listening
to the law,
Even
his prayer
is an abomination.
10
He who leads
the upright
astray
in an evil
way
Will himself
fall
into his own pit,
But the blameless
will inherit
good.
11
The rich
man
is wise
in his own eyes,
But the poor
who has understanding
sees through
him.
12
When the righteous
triumph,
there is great
glory,
But when the wicked
rise,
men
hide
themselves.
13
He who conceals
his transgressions
will not prosper,
But he who confesses
and forsakes
them will find compassion.
14
How blessed
is the man
who fears
always,
But he who hardens
his heart
will fall
into calamity.
15
Like a roaring
lion
and a rushing
bear
Is a wicked
ruler
over
a poor
people.
16
A leader
who is a great
oppressor
lacks
understanding,
But he who hates
unjust gain
will prolong
his days.
17
A man
who is laden
with the guilt of human
blood
Will be a fugitive
until
death;
let no
one support
him.
18
He who walks
blamelessly
will be delivered,
But he who is crooked
will fall
all at once.
19
He who tills
his land
will have
plenty
of food,
But he who follows
empty
pursuits
will have
poverty
in
plenty
.
20
A faithful
man
will abound
with blessings,
But he who makes haste
to be rich
will not go unpunished.
21
To show partiality
is not good,
Because
for a piece
of bread
a man
will transgress.
22
A man
with an evil
eye
hastens
after wealth
And does not know
that want
will come
upon him.
23
He who rebukes
a man
will afterward
find
more favor
Than
he who flatters
with the tongue.
24
He who robs
his father
or his mother
And says,
"It is not a transgression,"
Is the companion
of a man
who destroys.
25
An arrogant
man stirs
up strife,
But he who trusts
in the LORD
will prosper.
26
He who trusts
in his own heart
is a fool,
But he who walks
wisely
will be delivered.
27
He who gives
to the poor
will never
want,
But he who shuts
his eyes
will have many
curses.
28
When the wicked
rise,
men
hide
themselves; But when they perish,
the righteous
increase.
