Pro 01:01 ¶ The proverbs <04912> of Solomon <08010> the son 
<01121> of David <01732>, king <04428> of Israel <03478>;

Pro 01:02  To know <03045> (8800) wisdom <02451> and instruction 
<04148>; to perceive <0995> (8687) the words <0561> of 
understanding <0998>;

Pro 01:03  To receive <03947> (8800) the instruction <04148> of 
wisdom <07919> (8687), justice <06664>, and judgment <04941>, 
and equity <04339>;

Pro 01:04  To give <05414> (8800) subtilty <06195> to the simple 
<06612>, to the young man <05288> knowledge <01847> and 
discretion <04209>.

Pro 01:05  A wise <02450> man will hear <08085> (8799), and will 
increase <03254> (8686) learning <03948>; and a man of 
understanding <0995> (8737) shall attain <07069> (8799) unto 
wise counsels <08458>:

Pro 01:06  To understand <0995> (8687) a proverb <04912>, and 
the interpretation <04426>; the words <01697> of the wise 
<02450>, and their dark sayings <02420>.

Pro 01:07 ¶ The fear <03374> of the LORD <03068> is the 
beginning <07225> of knowledge <01847>: but fools <0191> despise 
<0936> (8804) wisdom <02451> and instruction <04148>.

Pro 01:08  My son <01121>, hear <08085> (8798) the instruction 
<04148> of thy father <01>, and forsake <05203> (8799) not the 
law <08451> of thy mother <0517>:

Pro 01:09  For they shall be an ornament <03880> of grace 
<02580> unto thy head <07218>, and chains <06060> about thy neck 
<01621>.

Pro 01:10 ¶ My son <01121>, if sinners <02400> entice <06601> 
(8762) thee, consent <014> (8799) thou not.

Pro 01:11  If they say <0559> (8799), Come <03212> (8798) with 
us, let us lay wait <0693> (8799) for blood <01818>, let us lurk 
<06845> (8799) privily for the innocent <05355> without cause 
<02600>:

Pro 01:12  Let us swallow them up <01104> (8799) alive <02416> 
as the grave <07585>; and whole <08549>, as those that go down 
<03381> (8802) into the pit <0953>:

Pro 01:13  We shall find <04672> (8799) all precious <03368> 
substance <01952>, we shall fill <04390> (8762) our houses 
<01004> with spoil <07998>:

Pro 01:14  Cast <05307> (8686) in thy lot <01486> among <08432> 
us; let us all have one <0259> purse <03599>:

Pro 01:15  My son <01121>, walk <03212> (8799) not thou in the 
way <01870> with them; refrain <04513> (8798) thy foot <07272> 
from their path <05410>:

Pro 01:16  For their feet <07272> run <07323> (8799) to evil 
<07451>, and make haste <04116> (8762) to shed <08210> (8800) 
blood <01818>.

Pro 01:17  Surely in vain <02600> the net <07568> is spread 
<02219> (8794) in the sight <05869> of any bird <01167> <03671>.

Pro 01:18  And they lay wait <0693> (8799) for their own blood 
<01818>; they lurk privily <06845> (8799) for their own lives 
<05315>.

Pro 01:19  So are the ways <0734> of every one that is greedy 
<01214> (8802) of gain <01215>; which taketh away <03947> (8799) 
the life <05315> of the owners <01167> thereof.

Pro 01:20 ¶ Wisdom <02454> crieth <07442> (8799) without <02351>;
 she uttereth <05414> (8799) her voice <06963> in the streets 
<07339>:

Pro 01:21  She crieth <07121> (8799) in the chief place <07218> 
of concourse <01993> (8802), in the openings <06607> of the 
gates <08179>: in the city <05892> she uttereth <0559> (8799) 
her words <0561>, saying,

Pro 01:22  How long, ye simple ones <06612>, will ye love <0157> 
(8799) simplicity <06612>? and the scorners <03887> (8801) 
delight <02530> (8804) in their scorning <03944>, and fools 
<03684> hate <08130> (8799) knowledge <01847>?

Pro 01:23  Turn <07725> (8799) you at my reproof <08433>: behold,
 I will pour out <05042> (8686) my spirit <07307> unto you, I 
will make known <03045> (8686) my words <01697> unto you.

Pro 01:24  Because I have called <07121> (8804), and ye refused 
<03985> (8762); I have stretched out <05186> (8804) my hand 
<03027>, and no man regarded <07181> (8688);

Pro 01:25  But ye have set at nought <06544> (8799) all my 
counsel <06098>, and would <014> (8804) none of my reproof 
<08433>:

Pro 01:26  I also will laugh <07832> (8799) at your calamity 
<0343>; I will mock <03932> (8799) when your fear <06343> cometh 
<0935> (8800);

Pro 01:27  When your fear <06343> cometh <0935> (8800) as 
desolation <07722> (8675) <07584>, and your destruction <0343> 
cometh <0857> (8799) as a whirlwind <05492>; when distress 
<06869> and anguish <06695> cometh <0935> (8800) upon you.

Pro 01:28  Then shall they call <07121> (8799) upon me, but I 
will not answer <06030> (8799); they shall seek me early <07836> 
(8762), but they shall not find <04672> (8799) me:

Pro 01:29  For that they hated <08130> (8804) knowledge <01847>, 
and did not choose <0977> (8804) the fear <03374> of the LORD 
<03068>:

Pro 01:30  They would <014> (8804) none of my counsel <06098>: 
they despised <05006> (8804) all my reproof <08433>.

Pro 01:31  Therefore shall they eat <0398> (8799) of the fruit 
<06529> of their own way <01870>, and be filled <07646> (8799) 
with their own devices <04156>.

Pro 01:32  For the turning away <04878> of the simple <06612> 
shall slay <02026> (8799) them, and the prosperity <07962> of 
fools <03684> shall destroy <06> (8762) them.

Pro 01:33  But whoso hearkeneth <08085> (8802) unto me shall 
dwell <07931> (8799) safely <0983>, and shall be quiet <07599> 
(8768) from fear <06343> of evil <07451>.

Pro 02:01 ¶ My son <01121>, if thou wilt receive <03947> (8799) 
my words <0561>, and hide <06845> (8799) my commandments <04687> 
with thee;

Pro 02:02  So that thou incline <07181> (8687) thine ear <0241> 
unto wisdom <02451>, and apply <05186> (8686) thine heart 
<03820> to understanding <08394>;

Pro 02:03  Yea, if thou criest <07121> (8799) after knowledge 
<0998>, and liftest up <05414> (8799) thy voice <06963> for 
understanding <08394>;

Pro 02:04  If thou seekest <01245> (8762) her as silver <03701>, 
and searchest <02664> (8799) for her as for hid treasures 
<04301>;

Pro 02:05  Then shalt thou understand <0995> (8799) the fear 
<03374> of the LORD <03068>, and find <04672> (8799) the 
knowledge <01847> of God <0430>.

Pro 02:06  For the LORD <03068> giveth <05414> (8799) wisdom 
<02451>: out of his mouth <06310> cometh knowledge <01847> and 
understanding <08394>.

Pro 02:07  He layeth up <06845> (8799) (8675) <06845> (8804) 
sound wisdom <08454> for the righteous <03477>: he is a buckler 
<04043> to them that walk <01980> (8802) uprightly <08537>.

Pro 02:08  He keepeth <05341> (8800) the paths <0734> of 
judgment <04941>, and preserveth <08104> (8799) the way <01870> 
of his saints <02623>.

Pro 02:09  Then shalt thou understand <0995> (8799) 
righteousness <06664>, and judgment <04941>, and equity <04339>; 
yea, every good <02896> path <04570>.

Pro 02:10 ¶ When wisdom <02451> entereth <0935> (8799) into 
thine heart <03820>, and knowledge <01847> is pleasant <05276> 
(8799) unto thy soul <05315>;

Pro 02:11  Discretion <04209> shall preserve <08104> (8799) thee,
 understanding <08394> shall keep <05341> (8799) thee:

Pro 02:12  To deliver <05337> (8687) thee from the way <01870> 
of the evil <07451> man, from the man <0376> that speaketh 
<01696> (8764) froward things <08419>;

Pro 02:13  Who leave <05800> (8802) the paths <0734> of 
uprightness <03476>, to walk <03212> (8800) in the ways <01870> 
of darkness <02822>;

Pro 02:14  Who rejoice <08056> to do <06213> (8800) evil <07451>,
 and delight <01523> (8799) in the frowardness <08419> of the 
wicked <07451>;

Pro 02:15  Whose ways <0734> are crooked <06141>, and they 
froward <03868> (8737) in their paths <04570>:

Pro 02:16  To deliver <05337> (8687) thee from the strange 
<02114> (8801) woman <0802>, even from the stranger <05237> 
which flattereth <02505> (8689) with her words <0561>;

Pro 02:17  Which forsaketh <05800> (8802) the guide <0441> of 
her youth <05271>, and forgetteth <07911> (8804) the covenant 
<01285> of her God <0430>.

Pro 02:18  For her house <01004> inclineth <07743> (8804) unto 
death <04194>, and her paths <04570> unto the dead <07496>.

Pro 02:19  None that go <0935> (8802) unto her return again 
<07725> (8799), neither take they hold <05381> (8686) of the 
paths <0734> of life <02416>.

Pro 02:20  That thou mayest walk <03212> (8799) in the way 
<01870> of good <02896> men, and keep <08104> (8799) the paths 
<0734> of the righteous <06662>.

Pro 02:21  For the upright <03477> shall dwell <07931> (8799) in 
the land <0776>, and the perfect <08549> shall remain <03498> 
(8735) in it.

Pro 02:22  But the wicked <07563> shall be cut off <03772> 
(8735) from the earth <0776>, and the transgressors <0898> 
(8802) shall be rooted out <05255> (8799) of it.

Pro 03:01 ¶ My son <01121>, forget <07911> (8799) not my law 
<08451>; but let thine heart <03820> keep <05341> (8799) my 
commandments <04687>:

Pro 03:02  For length <0753> of days <03117>, and long <08141> 
life <02416>, and peace <07965>, shall they add <03254> (8686) 
to thee.

Pro 03:03  Let not mercy <02617> and truth <0571> forsake 
<05800> (8799) thee: bind <07194> (8798) them about thy neck 
<01621>; write <03789> (8798) them upon the table <03871> of 
thine heart <03820>:

Pro 03:04  So shalt thou find <04672> (8798) favour <02580> and 
good <02896> understanding <07922> in the sight <05869> of God 
<0430> and man <0120>.

Pro 03:05  Trust <0982> (8798) in the LORD <03068> with all 
thine heart <03820>; and lean <08172> (8735) not unto thine own 
understanding <0998>.

Pro 03:06  In all thy ways <01870> acknowledge <03045> (8798) 
him, and he shall direct <03474> (8762) thy paths <0734>.

Pro 03:07 ¶ Be not wise <02450> in thine own eyes <05869>: fear 
<03372> (8798) the LORD <03068>, and depart <05493> (8798) from 
evil <07451>.

Pro 03:08  It shall be health <07500> to thy navel <08270>, and 
marrow <08250> to thy bones <06106>.

Pro 03:09  Honour <03513> (8761) the LORD <03068> with thy 
substance <01952>, and with the firstfruits <07225> of all thine 
increase <08393>:

Pro 03:10  So shall thy barns <0618> be filled <04390> (8735) 
with plenty <07647>, and thy presses <03342> shall burst out 
<06555> (8799) with new wine <08492>.

Pro 03:11  My son <01121>, despise <03988> (8799) not the 
chastening <04148> of the LORD <03068>; neither be weary <06973> 
(8799) of his correction <08433>:

Pro 03:12  For whom the LORD <03068> loveth <0157> (8799) he 
correcteth <03198> (8686); even as a father <01> the son <01121> 
in whom he delighteth <07521> (8799).

Pro 03:13 ¶ Happy <0835> is the man <0120> that findeth <04672> 
(8804) wisdom <02451>, and the man <0120> that getteth <06329> 
(8686) understanding <08394>.

Pro 03:14  For the merchandise <05504> of it is better <02896> 
than the merchandise <05505> of silver <03701>, and the gain 
<08393> thereof than fine gold <02742>.

Pro 03:15  She is more precious <03368> than rubies <06443>: and 
all the things thou canst desire <02656> are not to be compared 
<07737> (8799) unto her.

Pro 03:16  Length <0753> of days <03117> is in her right hand 
<03225>; and in her left hand <08040> riches <06239> and honour 
<03519>.

Pro 03:17  Her ways <01870> are ways <01870> of pleasantness 
<05278>, and all her paths <05410> are peace <07965>.

Pro 03:18  She is a tree <06086> of life <02416> to them that 
lay hold <02388> (8688) upon her: and happy <0833> (8794) is 
every one that retaineth <08551> (8802) her.

Pro 03:19  The LORD <03068> by wisdom <02451> hath founded 
<03245> (8804) the earth <0776>; by understanding <08394> hath 
he established <03559> (8790) the heavens <08064>.

Pro 03:20  By his knowledge <01847> the depths <08415> are 
broken up <01234> (8738), and the clouds <07834> drop down 
<07491> (8799) the dew <02919>.

Pro 03:21 ¶ My son <01121>, let not them depart <03868> (8799) 
from thine eyes <05869>: keep <05341> (8798) sound wisdom 
<08454> and discretion <04209>:

Pro 03:22  So shall they be life <02416> unto thy soul <05315>, 
and grace <02580> to thy neck <01621>.

Pro 03:23  Then shalt thou walk <03212> (8799) in thy way 
<01870> safely <0983>, and thy foot <07272> shall not stumble 
<05062> (8799).

Pro 03:24  When thou liest down <07901> (8799), thou shalt not 
be afraid <06342> (8799): yea, thou shalt lie down <07901> 
(8804), and thy sleep <08142> shall be sweet <06149> (8804).

Pro 03:25  Be not afraid <03372> (8799) of sudden <06597> fear 
<06343>, neither of the desolation <07722> of the wicked <07563>,
 when it cometh <0935> (8799).

Pro 03:26  For the LORD <03068> shall be thy confidence <03689>, 
and shall keep <08104> (8804) thy foot <07272> from being taken 
<03921>.

Pro 03:27 ¶ Withhold <04513> (8799) not good <02896> from them 
to whom it is due <01167>, when it is in the power <0410> of 
thine hand <03027> to do <06213> (8800) it.

Pro 03:28  Say <0559> (8799) not unto thy neighbour <07453>, Go 
<03212> (8798), and come again <07725> (8798), and to morrow 
<04279> I will give <05414> (8799); when thou hast <03426> it by 
thee.

Pro 03:29  Devise <02790> (8799) not evil <07451> against thy 
neighbour <07453>, seeing he dwelleth <03427> (8802) securely 
<0983> by thee.

Pro 03:30  Strive <07378> (8799) not with a man <0120> without 
cause <02600>, if he have done <01580> (8804) thee no harm 
<07451>.

Pro 03:31  Envy <07065> (8762) thou not the oppressor <0376> 
<02555>, and choose <0977> (8799) none of his ways <01870>.

Pro 03:32  For the froward <03868> (8737) is abomination <08441> 
to the LORD <03068>: but his secret <05475> is with the 
righteous <03477>.

Pro 03:33  The curse <03994> of the LORD <03068> is in the house 
<01004> of the wicked <07563>: but he blesseth <01288> (8762) 
the habitation <05116> of the just <06662>.

Pro 03:34  Surely he scorneth <03887> (8686) the scorners 
<03887> (8801): but he giveth <05414> (8799) grace <02580> unto 
the lowly <06035> (8675) <06041>.

Pro 03:35  The wise <02450> shall inherit <05157> (8799) glory 
<03519>: but shame <07036> shall be the promotion <07311> (8688) 
of fools <03684>.

Pro 04:01 ¶ Hear <08085> (8798), ye children <01121>, the 
instruction <04148> of a father <01>, and attend <07181> (8685) 
to know <03045> (8800) understanding <0998>.

Pro 04:02  For I give <05414> (8804) you good <02896> doctrine 
<03948>, forsake <05800> (8799) ye not my law <08451>.

Pro 04:03  For I was my father’s <01> son <01121>, tender 
<07390> and only <03173> beloved in the sight <06440> of my 
mother <0517>.

Pro 04:04  He taught <03384> (8686) me also, and said <0559> 
(8799) unto me, Let thine heart <03820> retain <08551> (8799) my 
words <01697>: keep <08104> (8798) my commandments <04687>, and 
live <02421> (8798).

Pro 04:05  Get <07069> (8798) wisdom <02451>, get <07069> (8798) 
understanding <0998>: forget <07911> (8799) it not; neither 
decline <05186> (8799) from the words <0561> of my mouth <06310>.

Pro 04:06  Forsake <05800> (8799) her not, and she shall 
preserve <08104> (8799) thee: love <0157> (8798) her, and she 
shall keep <05341> (8799) thee.

Pro 04:07  Wisdom <02451> is the principal thing <07225>; 
therefore get <07069> (8798) wisdom <02451>: and with all thy 
getting <07075> get understanding <0998>.

Pro 04:08  Exalt <05549> (8769) her, and she shall promote 
<07311> (8787) thee: she shall bring thee to honour <03513> 
(8762), when thou dost embrace <02263> (8762) her.

Pro 04:09  She shall give <05414> (8799) to thine head <07218> 
an ornament <03880> of grace <02580>: a crown <05850> of glory 
<08597> shall she deliver <04042> (8762) to thee.

Pro 04:10  Hear <08085> (8798), O my son <01121>, and receive 
<03947> (8798) my sayings <0561>; and the years <08141> of thy 
life <02416> shall be many <07235> (8799).

Pro 04:11  I have taught <03384> (8689) thee in the way <01870> 
of wisdom <02451>; I have led <01869> (8689) thee in right 
<03476> paths <04570>.

Pro 04:12  When thou goest <03212> (8800), thy steps <06806> 
shall not be straitened <03334> (8799); and when thou runnest 
<07323> (8799), thou shalt not stumble <03782> (8735).

Pro 04:13  Take fast hold <02388> (8685) of instruction <04148>; 
let her not go <07503> (8686): keep <05341> (8798) her; for she 
is thy life <02416>.

Pro 04:14 ¶ Enter <0935> (8799) not into the path <0734> of the 
wicked <07563>, and go <0833> (8762) not in the way <01870> of 
evil <07451> men.

Pro 04:15  Avoid <06544> (8798) it, pass <05674> (8799) not by 
it, turn <07847> (8798) from it, and pass away <05674> (8798).

Pro 04:16  For they sleep <03462> (8799) not, except they have 
done mischief <07489> (8686); and their sleep <08142> is taken 
away <01497> (8738), unless they cause some to fall <03782> 
(8686) (8675) <03782> (8799).

Pro 04:17  For they eat <03898> (8804) the bread <03899> of 
wickedness <07562>, and drink <08354> (8799) the wine <03196> of 
violence <02555>.

Pro 04:18  But the path <0734> of the just <06662> is as the 
shining <05051> light <0216>, that shineth <0215> (8804) more 
<01980> (8802) and more unto the perfect <03559> (8737) day 
<03117>.

Pro 04:19  The way <01870> of the wicked <07563> is as darkness 
<0653>: they know <03045> (8804) not at what they stumble 
<03782> (8735).

Pro 04:20 ¶ My son <01121>, attend <07181> (8685) to my words 
<01697>; incline <05186> (8685) thine ear <0241> unto my sayings 
<0561>.

Pro 04:21  Let them not depart <03868> (8686) from thine eyes 
<05869>; keep <08104> (8798) them in the midst <08432> of thine 
heart <03824>.

Pro 04:22  For they are life <02416> unto those that find 
<04672> (8802) them, and health <04832> to all their flesh 
<01320>.

Pro 04:23  Keep <05341> (8798) thy heart <03820> with all 
diligence <04929>; for out of it are the issues <08444> of life 
<02416>.

Pro 04:24  Put away <05493> (8685) from thee a froward <06143> 
mouth <06310>, and perverse <03891> lips <08193> put far <07368> 
(8685) from thee.

Pro 04:25  Let thine eyes <05869> look <05027> (8686) right on 
<05227>, and let thine eyelids <06079> look straight <03474> 
(8686) before thee.

Pro 04:26  Ponder <06424> (8761) the path <04570> of thy feet 
<07272>, and let all thy ways <01870> be established <03559> 
(8735).

Pro 04:27  Turn <05186> (8799) not to the right hand <03225> nor 
to the left <08040>: remove <05493> (8685) thy foot <07272> from 
evil <07451>.

Pro 05:01 ¶ My son <01121>, attend <07181> (8685) unto my wisdom 
<02451>, and bow <05186> (8685) thine ear <0241> to my 
understanding <08394>:

Pro 05:02  That thou mayest regard <08104> (8800) discretion 
<04209>, and that thy lips <08193> may keep <05341> (8799) 
knowledge <01847>.

Pro 05:03  For the lips <08193> of a strange woman <02114> 
(8801) drop <05197> (8799) as an honeycomb <05317>, and her 
mouth <02441> is smoother <02509> than oil <08081>:

Pro 05:04  But her end <0319> is bitter <04751> as wormwood 
<03939>, sharp <02299> as a twoedged <06310> sword <02719>.

Pro 05:05  Her feet <07272> go down <03381> (8802) to death 
<04194>; her steps <06806> take hold <08551> (8799) on hell 
<07585>.

Pro 05:06  Lest thou shouldest ponder <06424> (8762) the path 
<0734> of life <02416>, her ways <04570> are moveable <05128> 
(8804), that thou canst not know <03045> (8799) them.

Pro 05:07  Hear <08085> (8798) me now therefore, O ye children 
<01121>, and depart <05493> (8799) not from the words <0561> of 
my mouth <06310>.

Pro 05:08  Remove <07368> <00> thy way <01870> far <07368> 
(8685) from her, and come not nigh <07126> (8799) the door 
<06607> of her house <01004>:

Pro 05:09  Lest thou give <05414> (8799) thine honour <01935> 
unto others <0312>, and thy years <08141> unto the cruel <0394>:

Pro 05:10  Lest strangers <02114> (8801) be filled <07646> 
(8799) with thy wealth <03581>; and thy labours <06089> be in 
the house <01004> of a stranger <05237>;

Pro 05:11  And thou mourn <05098> (8804) at the last <0319>, 
when thy flesh <01320> and thy body <07607> are consumed <03615> 
(8800),

Pro 05:12  And say <0559> (8804), How have I hated <08130> 
(8804) instruction <04148>, and my heart <03820> despised 
<05006> (8804) reproof <08433>;

Pro 05:13  And have not obeyed <08085> (8804) the voice <06963> 
of my teachers <03384> (8688), nor inclined <05186> (8689) mine 
ear <0241> to them that instructed <03925> (8764) me!

Pro 05:14  I was almost <04592> in all evil <07451> in the midst 
<08432> of the congregation <06951> and assembly <05712>.

Pro 05:15 ¶ Drink <08354> (8798) waters <04325> out of thine own 
cistern <0953>, and running waters <05140> (8802) out of <08432> 
thine own well <0875>.

Pro 05:16  Let thy fountains <04599> be dispersed <06327> (8799) 
abroad <02351>, and rivers <06388> of waters <04325> in the 
streets <07339>.

Pro 05:17  Let them be only thine own, and not strangers <02114> 
(8801)‘ with thee.

Pro 05:18  Let thy fountain <04726> be blessed <01288> (8803): 
and rejoice <08055> (8798) with the wife <0802> of thy youth 
<05271>.

Pro 05:19  Let her be as the loving <0158> hind <0365> and 
pleasant <02580> roe <03280>; let her breasts <01717> satisfy 
<07301> (8762) thee at all times <06256>; and be thou ravished 
<07686> (8799) always <08548> with her love <0160>.

Pro 05:20  And why wilt thou, my son <01121>, be ravished 
<07686> (8799) with a strange woman <02114> (8801), and embrace 
<02263> (8762) the bosom <02436> of a stranger <05237>?

Pro 05:21  For the ways <01870> of man <0376> are before <05227> 
the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and he pondereth <06424> 
(8764) all his goings <04570>.

Pro 05:22  His own iniquities <05771> shall take <03920> (8799) 
the wicked <07563> himself, and he shall be holden <08551> 
(8735) with the cords <02256> of his sins <02403>.

Pro 05:23  He shall die <04191> (8799) without instruction 
<04148>; and in the greatness <07230> of his folly <0200> he 
shall go astray <07686> (8799).

Pro 06:01 ¶ My son <01121>, if thou be surety <06148> (8804) for 
thy friend <07453>, if thou hast stricken <08628> (8804) thy 
hand <03709> with a stranger <02114> (8801),

Pro 06:02  Thou art snared <03369> (8738) with the words <0561> 
of thy mouth <06310>, thou art taken <03920> (8738) with the 
words <0561> of thy mouth <06310>.

Pro 06:03  Do <06213> (8798) this now <0645>, my son <01121>, 
and deliver <05337> (8734) thyself, when thou art come <0935> 
(8804) into the hand <03709> of thy friend <07453>; go <03212> 
(8798), humble <07511> (8690) thyself, and make sure <07292> 
(8798) thy friend <07453>.

Pro 06:04  Give <05414> (8799) not sleep <08142> to thine eyes 
<05869>, nor slumber <08572> to thine eyelids <06079>.

Pro 06:05  Deliver <05337> (8734) thyself as a roe <06643> from 
the hand <03027> of the hunter, and as a bird <06833> from the 
hand <03027> of the fowler <03353>.

Pro 06:06 ¶ Go <03212> (8798) to the ant <05244>, thou sluggard 
<06102>; consider <07200> (8798) her ways <01870>, and be wise 
<02449> (8798):

Pro 06:07  Which having no guide <07101>, overseer <07860> 
(8802), or ruler <04910> (8802),

Pro 06:08  Provideth <03559> (8686) her meat <03899> in the 
summer <07019>, and gathereth <0103> (8804) her food <03978> in 
the harvest <07105>.

Pro 06:09  How long wilt thou sleep <07901> (8799), O sluggard 
<06102>? when wilt thou arise <06965> (8799) out of thy sleep 
<08142>?

Pro 06:10  Yet a little <04592> sleep <08142>, a little <04592> 
slumber <08572>, a little <04592> folding <02264> of the hands 
<03027> to sleep <07901> (8800):

Pro 06:11  So shall thy poverty <07389> come <0935> (8804) as 
one that travelleth <01980> (8764), and thy want <04270> as an 
armed <04043> man <0376>.

Pro 06:12 ¶ A naughty <01100> person <0120>, a wicked <0205> man 
<0376>, walketh <01980> (8802) with a froward <06143> mouth 
<06310>.

Pro 06:13  He winketh <07169> (8802) with his eyes <05869>, he 
speaketh <04448> (8802) with his feet <07272>, he teacheth 
<03384> (8688) with his fingers <0676>;

Pro 06:14  Frowardness <08419> is in his heart <03820>, he 
deviseth <02790> (8802) mischief <07451> continually <06256>; he 
soweth <07971> (8762) discord <04066> (8675) <04090>.

Pro 06:15  Therefore shall his calamity <0343> come <0935> 
(8799) suddenly <06597>; suddenly <06621> shall he be broken 
<07665> (8735) without remedy <04832>.

Pro 06:16  These six <08337> things doth the LORD <03068> hate 
<08130> (8804): yea, seven <07651> are an abomination <08441> 
unto him <05315>:

Pro 06:17  A proud <07311> (8802) look <05869>, a lying <08267> 
tongue <03956>, and hands <03027> that shed <08210> (8802) 
innocent <05355> blood <01818>,

Pro 06:18  An heart <03820> that deviseth <02790> (8802) wicked 
<0205> imaginations <04284>, feet <07272> that be swift <04116> 
(8764) in running <07323> (8800) to mischief <07451>,

Pro 06:19  A false <08267> witness <05707> that speaketh <06315> 
(8686) lies <03577>, and he that soweth <07971> (8764) discord 
<04090> among brethren <0251>.

Pro 06:20 ¶ My son <01121>, keep <05341> (8798) thy father’s 
<01> commandment <04687>, and forsake <05203> (8799) not the law 
<08451> of thy mother <0517>:

Pro 06:21  Bind <07194> (8798) them continually <08548> upon 
thine heart <03820>, and tie <06029> (8798) them about thy neck 
<01621>.

Pro 06:22  When thou goest <01980> (8692), it shall lead <05148> 
(8686) thee; when thou sleepest <07901> (8800), it shall keep 
<08104> (8799) thee; and when thou awakest <06974> (8689), it 
shall talk <07878> (8799) with thee.

Pro 06:23  For the commandment <04687> is a lamp <05216>; and 
the law <08451> is light <0216>; and reproofs <08433> of 
instruction <04148> are the way <01870> of life <02416>:

Pro 06:24  To keep <08104> (8800) thee from the evil <07451> 
woman <0802>, from the flattery <02513> of the tongue <03956> of 
a strange woman <05237>.

Pro 06:25  Lust <02530> (8799) not after her beauty <03308> in 
thine heart <03824>; neither let her take <03947> (8799) thee 
with her eyelids <06079>.

Pro 06:26  For by means of <01157> a whorish <02181> (8802) 
woman <0802> a man is brought to a piece <03603> of bread 
<03899>: and the adulteress <0802> <0376> will hunt <06679> 
(8799) for the precious <03368> life <05315>.

Pro 06:27  Can a man <0376> take <02846> (8799) fire <0784> in 
his bosom <02436>, and his clothes <0899> not be burned <08313> 
(8735)?

Pro 06:28  Can one <0376> go <01980> (8762) upon hot coals 
<01513>, and his feet <07272> not be burned <03554> (8735)?

Pro 06:29  So he that goeth in <0935> (8802) to his neighbour’s 
<07453> wife <0802>; whosoever toucheth <05060> (8802) her shall 
not be innocent <05352> (8735).

Pro 06:30  Men do not despise <0936> (8799) a thief <01590>, if 
he steal <01589> (8799) to satisfy <04390> (8763) his soul 
<05315> when he is hungry <07456> (8799);

Pro 06:31  But if he be found <04672> (8738), he shall restore 
<07999> (8762) sevenfold <07659>; he shall give <05414> (8799) 
all the substance <01952> of his house <01004>.

Pro 06:32  But whoso committeth adultery <05003> (8802) with a 
woman <0802> lacketh <02638> understanding <03820>: he that 
doeth <06213> (8799) it destroyeth <07843> (8688) his own soul 
<05315>.

Pro 06:33  A wound <05061> and dishonour <07036> shall he get 
<04672> (8799); and his reproach <02781> shall not be wiped away 
<04229> (8735).

Pro 06:34  For jealousy <07068> is the rage <02534> of a man 
<01397>: therefore he will not spare <02550> (8799) in the day 
<03117> of vengeance <05359>.

Pro 06:35  He will not regard <05375> (8799) <06440> any ransom 
<03724>; neither will he rest content <014> (8799), though thou 
givest many <07235> (8686) gifts <07810>.

Pro 07:01 ¶ My son <01121>, keep <08104> (8798) my words <0561>, 
and lay up <06845> (8799) my commandments <04687> with thee.

Pro 07:02  Keep <08104> (8798) my commandments <04687>, and live 
<02421> (8798); and my law <08451> as the apple <0380> of thine 
eye <05869>.

Pro 07:03  Bind <07194> (8798) them upon thy fingers <0676>, 
write <03789> (8798) them upon the table <03871> of thine heart 
<03820>.

Pro 07:04  Say <0559> (8798) unto wisdom <02451>, Thou art my 
sister <0269>; and call <07121> (8799) understanding <0998> thy 
kinswoman <04129>:

Pro 07:05  That they may keep <08104> (8800) thee from the 
strange <02114> (8801) woman <0802>, from the stranger <05237> 
which flattereth <02505> (8689) with her words <0561>.

Pro 07:06 ¶ For at the window <02474> of my house <01004> I 
looked <08259> (8738) through my casement <0822>,

Pro 07:07  And beheld <07200> (8799) among the simple ones 
<06612>, I discerned <0995> (8799) among the youths <01121>, a 
young man <05288> void <02638> of understanding <03820>,

Pro 07:08  Passing through <05674> (8802) the street <07784> 
near <0681> her corner <06434>; and he went <06805> (8799) the 
way <01870> to her house <01004>,

Pro 07:09  In the twilight <05399>, in the evening <03117> 
<06153>, in the black <0380> and dark <0653> night <03915>:

Pro 07:10  And, behold, there met <07125> (8800) him a woman 
<0802> with the attire <07897> of an harlot <02181> (8802), and 
subtil <05341> (8803) of heart <03820>.

Pro 07:11  (She is loud <01993> (8802) and stubborn <05637> 
(8802); her feet <07272> abide <07931> (8799) not in her house 
<01004>:

Pro 07:12  Now <06471> is she without <02351>, now <06471> in 
the streets <07339>, and lieth in wait <0693> (8799) at <0681> 
every corner <06438>.)

Pro 07:13  So she caught <02388> (8689) him, and kissed <05401> 
(8804) him, and with an impudent <05810> (8689) face <06440> 
said <0559> (8799) unto him,

Pro 07:14  I have peace <08002> offerings <02077> with me; this 
day <03117> have I payed <07999> (8765) my vows <05088>.

Pro 07:15  Therefore came I forth <03318> (8804) to meet <07125> 
(8800) thee, diligently to seek <07836> (8763) thy face <06440>, 
and I have found <04672> (8799) thee.

Pro 07:16  I have decked <07234> (8804) my bed <06210> with 
coverings <04765> of tapestry, with carved <02405> works, with 
fine linen <0330> of Egypt <04714>.

Pro 07:17  I have perfumed <05130> (8804) my bed <04904> with 
myrrh <04753>, aloes <0174>, and cinnamon <07076>.

Pro 07:18  Come <03212> (8798), let us take our fill <07301> 
(8799) of love <01730> until the morning <01242>: let us solace 
<05965> (8691) ourselves with loves <0159>.

Pro 07:19  For the goodman <0376> is not at home <01004>, he is 
gone <01980> (8804) a long <07350> journey <01870>:

Pro 07:20  He hath taken <03947> (8804) a bag <06872> of money 
<03701> with him <03027>, and will come <0935> (8799) home 
<01004> at the day <03117> appointed <03677>.

Pro 07:21  With her much <07230> fair speech <03948> she caused 
him to yield <05186> (8689), with the flattering <02506> of her 
lips <08193> she forced <05080> (8686) him.

Pro 07:22  He goeth <01980> (8802) after <0310> her straightway 
<06597>, as an ox <07794> goeth <0935> (8799) to the slaughter 
<02874>, or as a fool <0191> to the correction <04148> of the 
stocks <05914>;

Pro 07:23  Till a dart <02671> strike <06398> (8762) through his 
liver <03516>; as a bird <06833> hasteth <04116> (8763) to the 
snare <06341>, and knoweth <03045> (8804) not that it is for his 
life <05315>.

Pro 07:24 ¶ Hearken <08085> (8798) unto me now therefore, O ye 
children <01121>, and attend <07181> (8685) to the words <0561> 
of my mouth <06310>.

Pro 07:25  Let not thine heart <03820> decline <07847> (8799) to 
her ways <01870>, go not astray <08582> (8799) in her paths 
<05410>.

Pro 07:26  For she hath cast down <05307> (8689) many <07227> 
wounded <02491>: yea, many strong <06099> men have been slain 
<02026> (8803) by her.

Pro 07:27  Her house <01004> is the way <01870> to hell <07585>, 
going down <03381> (8802) to the chambers <02315> of death 
<04194>.

Pro 08:01 ¶ Doth not wisdom <02451> cry <07121> (8799)? and 
understanding <08394> put forth <05414> (8799) her voice <06963>?

Pro 08:02  She standeth <05324> (8738) in the top <07218> of 
high places <04791>, by the way <01870> in the places <01004> of 
the paths <05410>.

Pro 08:03  She crieth <07442> (8799) at <03027> the gates 
<08179>, at the entry <06310> of the city <07176>, at the coming 
<03996> in at the doors <06607>.

Pro 08:04  Unto you, O men <0376>, I call <07121> (8799); and my 
voice <06963> is to the sons <01121> of man <0120>.

Pro 08:05  O ye simple <06612>, understand <0995> (8685) wisdom 
<06195>: and, ye fools <03684>, be ye of an understanding <0995> 
(8685) heart <03820>.

Pro 08:06  Hear <08085> (8798); for I will speak <01696> (8762) 
of excellent things <05057>; and the opening <04669> of my lips 
<08193> shall be right things <04339>.

Pro 08:07  For my mouth <02441> shall speak <01897> (8799) truth 
<0571>; and wickedness <07562> is an abomination <08441> to my 
lips <08193>.

Pro 08:08  All the words <0561> of my mouth <06310> are in 
righteousness <06664>; there is nothing froward <06617> (8737) 
or perverse <06141> in them.

Pro 08:09  They are all plain <05228> to him that understandeth 
<0995> (8688), and right <03477> to them that find <04672> 
(8802) knowledge <01847>.

Pro 08:10  Receive <03947> (8798) my instruction <04148>, and 
not silver <03701>; and knowledge <01847> rather than choice 
<0977> (8737) gold <02742>.

Pro 08:11  For wisdom <02451> is better <02896> than rubies 
<06443>; and all the things that may be desired <02656> are not 
to be compared <07737> (8799) to it.

Pro 08:12 ¶ I wisdom <02451> dwell <07931> (8804) with prudence 
<06195>, and find out <04672> (8799) knowledge <01847> of witty 
inventions <04209>.

Pro 08:13  The fear <03374> of the LORD <03068> is to hate 
<08130> (8800) evil <07451>: pride <01344>, and arrogancy 
<01347>, and the evil <07451> way <01870>, and the froward 
<08419> mouth <06310>, do I hate <08130> (8804).

Pro 08:14  Counsel <06098> is mine, and sound wisdom <08454>: I 
am understanding <0998>; I have strength <01369>.

Pro 08:15  By me kings <04428> reign <04427> (8799), and princes 
<07336> (8802) decree <02710> (8779) justice <06664>.

Pro 08:16  By me princes <08269> rule <08323> (8799), and nobles 
<05081>, even all the judges <08199> (8802) of the earth <0776>.

Pro 08:17  I love <0157> (8799) them that love <0157> (8802) me; 
and those that seek me early <07836> (8764) shall find <04672> 
(8799) me.

Pro 08:18  Riches <06239> and honour <03519> are with me; yea, 
durable <06276> riches <01952> and righteousness <06666>.

Pro 08:19  My fruit <06529> is better <02896> than gold <02742>, 
yea, than fine gold <06337>; and my revenue <08393> than choice 
<0977> (8737) silver <03701>.

Pro 08:20  I lead <01980> (8762) in the way <0734> of 
righteousness <06666>, in the midst <08432> of the paths <05410> 
of judgment <04941>:

Pro 08:21  That I may cause those that love <0157> (8802) me to 
inherit <05157> (8687) substance <03426>; and I will fill 
<04390> (8762) their treasures <0214>.

Pro 08:22 ¶ The LORD <03068> possessed <07069> (8804) me in the 
beginning <07225> of his way <01870>, before <06924> his works 
<04659> of old.

Pro 08:23  I was set up <05258> (8738) from everlasting <05769>, 
from the beginning <07218>, or ever <06924> the earth <0776> was.

Pro 08:24  When there were no depths <08415>, I was brought 
forth <02342> (8797); when there were no fountains <04599> 
abounding <03513> (8737) with water <04325>.

Pro 08:25  Before the mountains <02022> were settled <02883> 
(8717), before <06440> the hills <01389> was I brought forth 
<02342> (8797):

Pro 08:26  While as yet he had not made <06213> (8804) the earth 
<0776>, nor the fields <02351>, nor the highest part <07218> of 
the dust <06083> of the world <08398>.

Pro 08:27  When he prepared <03559> (8687) the heavens <08064>, 
I was there: when he set <02710> (8800) a compass <02329> upon 
the face <06440> of the depth <08415>:

Pro 08:28  When he established <0553> (8763) the clouds <07834> 
above <04605>: when he strengthened <05810> (8800) the fountains 
<05869> of the deep <08415>:

Pro 08:29  When he gave <07760> (8800) to the sea <03220> his 
decree <02706>, that the waters <04325> should not pass <05674> 
(8799) his commandment <06310>: when he appointed <02710> (8800) 
the foundations <04144> of the earth <0776>:

Pro 08:30  Then I was by him <0681>, as one brought up <0525> 
with him: and I was daily <03117> <03117> his delight <08191>, 
rejoicing <07832> (8764) always <06256> before <06440> him;

Pro 08:31  Rejoicing <07832> (8764) in the habitable part 
<08398> of his earth <0776>; and my delights <08191> were with 
the sons <01121> of men <0120>.

Pro 08:32 ¶ Now therefore hearken <08085> (8798) unto me, O ye 
children <01121>: for blessed <0835> are they that keep <08104> 
(8799) my ways <01870>.

Pro 08:33  Hear <08085> (8798) instruction <04148>, and be wise 
<02449> (8798), and refuse <06544> (8799) it not.

Pro 08:34  Blessed <0835> is the man <0120> that heareth <08085> 
(8802) me, watching <08245> (8800) daily <03117> <03117> at my 
gates <01817>, waiting <08104> (8800) at the posts <04201> of my 
doors <06607>.

Pro 08:35  For whoso findeth <04672> (8802) me findeth <04672> 
(8804) (8675) <04672> (8802) life <02416>, and shall obtain 
<06329> (8686) favour <07522> of the LORD <03068>.

Pro 08:36  But he that sinneth <02398> (8802) against me 
wrongeth <02554> (8802) his own soul <05315>: all they that hate 
<08130> (8764) me love <0157> (8804) death <04194>.

Pro 09:01 ¶ Wisdom <02454> hath builded <01129> (8804) her house 
<01004>, she hath hewn out <02672> (8804) her seven <07651> 
pillars <05982>:

Pro 09:02  She hath killed <02873> (8804) her beasts <02874>; 
she hath mingled <04537> (8804) her wine <03196>; she hath also 
furnished <06186> (8804) her table <07979>.

Pro 09:03  She hath sent forth <07971> (8804) her maidens 
<05291>: she crieth <07121> (8799) upon <01610> the highest 
places <04791> of the city <07176>,

Pro 09:04  Whoso is simple <06612>, let him turn in <05493> 
(8799) hither: as for him that wanteth <02638> understanding 
<03820>, she saith <0559> (8804) to him,

Pro 09:05  Come <03212> (8798), eat <03898> (8798) of my bread 
<03899>, and drink <08354> (8798) of the wine <03196> which I 
have mingled <04537> (8804).

Pro 09:06  Forsake <05800> (8798) the foolish <06612>, and live 
<02421> (8798); and go <0833> (8798) in the way <01870> of 
understanding <0998>.

Pro 09:07  He that reproveth <03256> (8802) a scorner <03887> 
(8801) getteth <03947> (8802) to himself shame <07036>: and he 
that rebuketh <03198> (8688) a wicked <07563> man getteth 
himself a blot <03971>.

Pro 09:08  Reprove <03198> (8686) not a scorner <03887> (8801), 
lest he hate <08130> (8799) thee: rebuke <03198> (8685) a wise 
man <02450>, and he will love <0157> (8799) thee.

Pro 09:09  Give <05414> (8798) instruction to a wise <02450> man,
 and he will be yet wiser <02449> (8799): teach <03045> (8685) a 
just <06662> man, and he will increase <03254> (8686) in 
learning <03948>.

Pro 09:10  The fear <03374> of the LORD <03068> is the beginning 
<08462> of wisdom <02451>: and the knowledge <01847> of the holy 
<06918> is understanding <0998>.

Pro 09:11  For by me thy days <03117> shall be multiplied 
<07235> (8799), and the years <08141> of thy life <02416> shall 
be increased <03254> (8686).

Pro 09:12  If thou be wise <02449> (8804), thou shalt be wise 
<02449> (8804) for thyself: but if thou scornest <03887> (8804), 
thou alone shalt bear <05375> (8799) it.

Pro 09:13 ¶ A foolish <03687> woman <0802> is clamorous <01993> 
(8802): she is simple <06615>, and <01077> knoweth <03045> 
(8804) nothing <04100>.

Pro 09:14  For she sitteth <03427> (8804) at the door <06607> of 
her house <01004>, on a seat <03678> in the high places <04791> 
of the city <07176>,

Pro 09:15  To call <07121> (8800) passengers <05674> (8802) 
<01870> who go right <03474> (8764) on their ways <0734>:

Pro 09:16  Whoso is simple <06612>, let him turn in <05493> 
(8799) hither: and as for him that wanteth <02638> understanding 
<03820>, she saith <0559> (8804) to him,

Pro 09:17  Stolen <01589> (8803) waters <04325> are sweet 
<04985> (8799), and bread <03899> eaten in secret <05643> is 
pleasant <05276> (8799).

Pro 09:18  But he knoweth <03045> (8804) not that the dead 
<07496> are there; and that her guests <07121> (8803) are in the 
depths <06012> of hell <07585>.

Pro 10:01 ¶ The proverbs <04912> of Solomon <08010>. A wise 
<02450> son <01121> maketh a glad <08055> (8762) father <01>: 
but a foolish <03684> son <01121> is the heaviness <08424> of 
his mother <0517>.

Pro 10:02 ¶ Treasures <0214> of wickedness <07562> profit 
<03276> (8686) nothing: but righteousness <06666> delivereth 
<05337> (8686) from death <04194>.

Pro 10:03  The LORD <03068> will not suffer <07456> <00> the 
soul <05315> of the righteous <06662> to famish <07456> (8686): 
but he casteth away <01920> (8799) the substance <01942> of the 
wicked <07563>.

Pro 10:04 ¶ He becometh poor <07326> (8802) that dealeth <06213> 
(8802) with a slack <07423> hand <03709>: but the hand <03027> 
of the diligent <02742> maketh rich <06238> (8686).

Pro 10:05 ¶ He that gathereth <0103> (8802) in summer <07019> is 
a wise <07919> (8688) son <01121>: but he that sleepeth <07290> 
(8737) in harvest <07105> is a son <01121> that causeth shame 
<0954> (8688).

Pro 10:06 ¶ Blessings <01293> are upon the head <07218> of the 
just <06662>: but violence <02555> covereth <03680> (8762) the 
mouth <06310> of the wicked <07563>.

Pro 10:07 ¶ The memory <02143> of the just <06662> is blessed 
<01293>: but the name <08034> of the wicked <07563> shall rot 
<07537> (8799).

Pro 10:08 ¶ The wise <02450> in heart <03820> will receive 
<03947> (8799) commandments <04687>: but a prating <08193> fool 
<0191> shall fall <03832> (8735).

Pro 10:09 ¶ He that walketh <03212> (8799) uprightly <08537> 
walketh <01980> (8802) surely <0983>: but he that perverteth 
<06140> (8764) his ways <01870> shall be known <03045> (8735).

Pro 10:10 ¶ He that winketh <07169> (8802) with the eye <05869> 
causeth <05414> (8799) sorrow <06094>: but a prating <08193> 
fool <0191> shall fall <03832> (8735).

Pro 10:11 ¶ The mouth <06310> of a righteous <06662> man is a 
well <04726> of life <02416>: but violence <02555> covereth 
<03680> (8762) the mouth <06310> of the wicked <07563>.

Pro 10:12 ¶ Hatred <08135> stirreth up <05782> (8787) strifes 
<04090>: but love <0160> covereth <03680> (8762) all sins 
<06588>.

Pro 10:13 ¶ In the lips <08193> of him that hath understanding 
<0995> (8737) wisdom <02451> is found <04672> (8735): but a rod 
<07626> is for the back <01460> of him that is void <02638> of 
understanding <03820>.

Pro 10:14 ¶ Wise <02450> men lay up <06845> (8799) knowledge 
<01847>: but the mouth <06310> of the foolish <0191> is near 
<07138> destruction <04288>.

Pro 10:15 ¶ The rich man’s <06223> wealth <01952> is his strong 
<05797> city <07151>: the destruction <04288> of the poor 
<01800> is their poverty <07389>.

Pro 10:16 ¶ The labour <06468> of the righteous <06662> tendeth 
to life <02416>: the fruit <08393> of the wicked <07563> to sin 
<02403>.

Pro 10:17 ¶ He is in the way <0734> of life <02416> that keepeth 
<08104> (8802) instruction <04148>: but he that refuseth <05800> 
(8802) reproof <08433> erreth <08582> (8688).

Pro 10:18 ¶ He that hideth <03680> (8764) hatred <08135> with 
lying <08267> lips <08193>, and he that uttereth <03318> (8688) 
a slander <01681>, is a fool <03684>.

Pro 10:19 ¶ In the multitude <07230> of words <01697> there 
wanteth <02308> (8799) not sin <06588>: but he that refraineth 
<02820> (8802) his lips <08193> is wise <07919> (8688).

Pro 10:20 ¶ The tongue <03956> of the just <06662> is as choice 
<0977> (8737) silver <03701>: the heart <03820> of the wicked 
<07563> is little worth <04592>.

Pro 10:21  The lips <08193> of the righteous <06662> feed 
<07462> (8799) many <07227>: but fools <0191> die <04191> (8799) 
for want <02638> of wisdom <03820>.

Pro 10:22 ¶ The blessing <01293> of the LORD <03068>, it maketh 
rich <06238> (8686), and he addeth <03254> (8686) no sorrow 
<06089> with it.

Pro 10:23 ¶ It is as sport <07814> to a fool <03684> to do 
<06213> (8800) mischief <02154>: but a man <0376> of 
understanding <08394> hath wisdom <02451>.

Pro 10:24 ¶ The fear <04034> of the wicked <07563>, it shall 
come <0935> (8799) upon him: but the desire <08378> of the 
righteous <06662> shall be granted <05414> (8799).

Pro 10:25  As the whirlwind <05492> passeth <05674> (8800), so 
is the wicked <07563> no more: but the righteous <06662> is an 
everlasting <05769> foundation <03247>.

Pro 10:26 ¶ As vinegar <02558> to the teeth <08127>, and as 
smoke <06227> to the eyes <05869>, so is the sluggard <06102> to 
them that send <07971> (8802) him.

Pro 10:27 ¶ The fear <03374> of the LORD <03068> prolongeth

spirit <07307> with the lowly <06035> (8675) <06041>, than to

Pro 16:21 ¶ The wise <02450> in heart <03820> shall be called

Pro 16:22 ¶ Understanding <07922> is a wellspring <04726> of

Pro 16:23 ¶ The heart <03820> of the wise <02450> teacheth 
<07919> (8686) his mouth <06310>, and addeth <03254> (8686) 
learning <03948> to his lips <08193>.

Pro 16:24 ¶ Pleasant <05278> words <0561> are as an honeycomb

Pro 16:26 ¶ He <05315> that laboureth <06001> laboureth <05998>

it of him.

Pro 16:27 ¶ An ungodly <01100> man <0376> diggeth up <03738>

his neighbour <07453>, and leadeth <03212> (8689) him into the 
way <01870> that is not good <02896>.

Pro 16:30  He shutteth <06095> (8802) his eyes <05869> to devise

<03615> (8765).

<02896> than the mighty <01368>; and he that ruleth <04910>

city <05892>.

<03068>.

Pro 17:01 ¶ Better <02896> is a dry <02720> morsel <06595>, and

Pro 17:08 ¶ A gift <07810> is as a precious <02580> stone <068>

(8688) very friends <0441>.

Pro 17:10 ¶ A reproof <01606> entereth <05181> (8799) more into

(8687) into a fool <03684>.

Pro 17:11 ¶ An evil <07451> man seeketh <01245> (8762) only

Pro 17:12 ¶ Let a bear <01677> robbed <07909> of her whelps meet

<04185> (8686) from his house <01004>.

Pro 17:14 ¶ The beginning <07225> of strife <04066> is as when

meddled <01566> (8694) with.

Pro 17:15 ¶ He that justifieth <06663> (8688) the wicked <07563>,

<03027> of a fool <03684> to get <07069> (8800) wisdom <02451>, 
seeing he hath no heart <03820> to it?

Pro 17:17 ¶ A friend <07453> loveth <0157> (8802) at all times

destruction <07667>.

Pro 17:20 ¶ He that hath a froward <06141> heart <03820> findeth

mischief <07451>.

Pro 17:22 ¶ A merry <08056> heart <03820> doeth good <03190>

Pro 17:23 ¶ A wicked <07563> man taketh <03947> (8799) a gift

Pro 17:25 ¶ A foolish <03684> son <01121> is a grief <03708> to

(8802) him.

Pro 17:26 ¶ Also to punish <06064> (8800) the just <06662> is 
not good <02896>, nor to strike <05221> (8687) princes <05081> 
for equity <03476>.

Pro 17:27 ¶ He that hath <03045> (8802) knowledge <01847> 
spareth <02820> (8802) his words <0561>: and a man <0376> of

Pro 18:02 ¶ A fool <03684> hath no delight <02654> (8799) in 
understanding <08394>, but that his heart <03820> may discover 
<01540> (8692) itself.

Pro 18:03 ¶ When the wicked <07563> cometh <0935> (8800), then

<07036> reproach <02781>.

Pro 18:04 ¶ The words <01697> of a man’s <0376> mouth <06310> 
are as deep <06013> waters <04325>, and the wellspring <04726>

<05315>.

Pro 18:08 ¶ The words <01697> of a talebearer <05372> are as

Pro 18:10 ¶ The name <08034> of the LORD <03068> is a strong

(8799) into it, and is safe <07682> (8738).

Pro 18:11 ¶ The rich man’s <06223> wealth <01952> is his strong

in his own conceit <04906>.

Pro 18:12 ¶ Before <06440> destruction <07667> the heart <03820> 
of man <0376> is haughty <01361> (8799), and before <06440> 
honour <03519> is humility <06038>.

Pro 18:13 ¶ He that answereth <07725> (8688) a matter <01697> 
before he heareth <08085> (8799) it, it is folly <0200> and 
shame <03639> unto him.

Pro 18:14 ¶ The spirit <07307> of a man <0376> will sustain 
<03557> (8770) his infirmity <04245>; but a wounded <05218> 
spirit <07307> who can bear <05375> (8799)?

Pro 18:15 ¶ The heart <03820> of the prudent <0995> (8737) 
getteth <07069> (8799) knowledge <01847>; and the ear <0241> of

great men <01419>.

Pro 18:17 ¶ He that is first <07223> in his own cause <07379> 
seemeth just <06662>; but his neighbour <07453> cometh <0935>

Pro 18:18 ¶ The lot <01486> causeth contentions <04079> to cease 
<07673> (8686), and parteth <06504> (8686) between the mighty 
<06099>.

Pro 18:19 ¶ A brother <0251> offended <06586> (8737) is harder 
to be won than a strong <05797> city <07151>: and their 
contentions <04079> (8675) <04066> are like the bars <01280> of 
a castle <0759>.

Pro 18:20 ¶ A man’s <0376> belly <0990> shall be satisfied 
<07646> (8799) with the fruit <06529> of his mouth <06310>; and

(8799) roughly <05794>.

Pro 18:24 ¶ A man <0376> that hath friends <07453> must shew 
himself friendly <07489> (8710): and there is <03426> a friend

Pro 19:01 ¶ Better <02896> is the poor <07326> (8802) that

Pro 19:02 ¶ Also, that the soul <05315> be without knowledge 
<01847>, it is not good <02896>; and he that hasteth <0213>

Pro 19:07  All the brethren <0251> of the poor <07326> (8802) do 
hate <08130> (8804) him: how much more do his friends <04828> go

with words <0561>, yet they are wanting to him.

Pro 19:10 ¶ Delight <08588> is not seemly <05000> for a fool 
<03684>; much less for a servant <05650> to have rule <04910> 
(8800) over princes <08269>.

Pro 19:11 ¶ The discretion <07922> of a man <0120> deferreth

of the LORD <03068> shall fall <05307> (8799) therein.

Pro 22:15 ¶ Foolishness <0200> is bound <07194> (8803) in the 
heart <03820> of a child <05288>; but the rod <07626> of 
correction <04148> shall drive it far <07368> (8686) from him.

Pro 22:16 ¶ He that oppresseth <06231> (8802) the poor <01800> 
to increase <07235> (8687) his riches, and he that giveth 
<05414> (8802) to the rich <06223>, shall surely come to want 
<04270>.

Pro 22:17 ¶ Bow down <05186> (8685) thine ear <0241>, and hear 
<08085> (8798) the words <01697> of the wise <02450>, and apply 
<07896> (8799) thine heart <03820> unto my knowledge <01847>.

Pro 22:18  For it is a pleasant thing <05273> if thou keep 
<08104> (8799) them within <0990> thee; they shall withal 
<03162> be fitted <03559> (8735) in thy lips <08193>.

Pro 22:19  That thy trust <04009> may be in the LORD <03068>, I 
have made known <03045> (8689) to thee this day <03117>, even to 
thee.

Pro 22:20  Have not I written <03789> (8804) to thee <08032> 
excellent things <07991> in counsels <04156> and knowledge 
<01847>,

Pro 22:21  That I might make thee know <03045> (8687) the 
certainty <07189> of the words <0561> of truth <0571>; that thou 
mightest answer <07725> (8687) the words <0561> of truth <0571> 
to them that send <07971> (8802) unto thee?

Pro 22:22 ¶ Rob <01497> (8799) not the poor <01800>, because he 
is poor <01800>: neither oppress <01792> (8762) the afflicted 
<06041> in the gate <08179>:

Pro 22:23  For the LORD <03068> will plead <07378> (8799) their 
cause <07379>, and spoil <06906> (8804) the soul <05315> of 
those that spoiled <06906> (8802) them.

Pro 22:24 ¶ Make no friendship <07462> (8691) with an angry 
<0639> man <01167>; and with a furious <02534> man <0376> thou 
shalt not go <0935> (8799):

Pro 22:25  Lest thou learn <0502> (8799) his ways <0734>, and 
get <03947> (8804) a snare <04170> to thy soul <05315>.

Pro 22:26 ¶ Be not thou one of them that strike <08628> (8802) 
hands <03709>, or of them that are sureties <06148> (8802) for 
debts <04859>.

Pro 22:27  If thou hast nothing to pay <07999> (8763), why 
should he take away <03947> (8799) thy bed <04904> from under 
thee?

Pro 22:28 ¶ Remove <05253> (8686) not the ancient <05769> 
landmark <01366>, which thy fathers <01> have set <06213> (8804).

Pro 22:29 ¶ Seest <02372> (8804) thou a man <0376> diligent 
<04106> in his business <04399>? he shall stand <03320> (8691) 
before <06440> kings <04428>; he shall not stand <03320> (8691) 
before <06440> mean <02823> men.

Pro 23:01 ¶ When thou sittest <03427> (8799) to eat <03898> 
(8800) with a ruler <04910> (8802), consider <0995> (8799) 
diligently <0995> (8800) what is before <06440> thee:

Pro 23:02  And put <07760> (8804) a knife <07915> to thy throat 
<03930>, if thou be a man given <01167> to appetite <05315>.

Pro 23:03  Be not desirous <0183> (8691) of his dainties <04303>:
 for they are deceitful <03577> meat <03899>.

Pro 23:04 ¶ Labour <03021> (8799) not to be rich <06238> (8687): 
cease <02308> (8798) from thine own wisdom <0998>.

Pro 23:05  Wilt thou set <05774> (8686) (8675) <05774> (8799) 
thine eyes <05869> upon that which is not? for riches certainly 
<06213> (8800) make <06213> (8799) themselves wings <03671>; 
they fly away <05774> (8799) (8675) <05774> (8687) as an eagle 
<05404> toward heaven <08064>.

Pro 23:06 ¶ Eat <03898> (8799) thou not the bread <03899> of him 
that hath an evil <07451> eye <05869>, neither desire <0183> 
(8691) thou his dainty meats <04303>:

Pro 23:07  For as he thinketh <08176> (8804) in his heart 
<05315>, so is he: Eat <0398> (8798) and drink <08354> (8798), 
saith <0559> (8799) he to thee; but his heart <03820> is not 
with thee.

Pro 23:08  The morsel <06595> which thou hast eaten <0398> 
(8804) shalt thou vomit up <06958> (8686), and lose <07843> 
(8765) thy sweet <05273> words <01697>.

Pro 23:09 ¶ Speak <01696> (8762) not in the ears <0241> of a 
fool <03684>: for he will despise <0936> (8799) the wisdom 
<07922> of thy words <04405>.

Pro 23:10 ¶ Remove <05253> (8686) not the old <05769> landmark 
<01366>; and enter <0935> (8799) not into the fields <07704> of 
the fatherless <03490>:

Pro 23:11  For their redeemer <01350> (8802) is mighty <02389>; 
he shall plead <07378> (8799) their cause <07379> with thee.

Pro 23:12 ¶ Apply <0935> (8685) thine heart <03820> unto 
instruction <04148>, and thine ears <0241> to the words <0561> 
of knowledge <01847>.

Pro 23:13  Withhold <04513> (8799) not correction <04148> from 
the child <05288>: for if thou beatest <05221> (8686) him with 
the rod <07626>, he shall not die <04191> (8799).

Pro 23:14  Thou shalt beat <05221> (8686) him with the rod 
<07626>, and shalt deliver <05337> (8686) his soul <05315> from 
hell <07585>.

Pro 23:15  My son <01121>, if thine heart <03820> be wise 
<02449> (8804), my heart <03820> shall rejoice <08055> (8799), 
even mine <0589>.

Pro 23:16  Yea, my reins <03629> shall rejoice <05937> (8799), 
when thy lips <08193> speak <01696> (8763) right things <04339>.

Pro 23:17 ¶ Let not thine heart <03820> envy <07065> (8762) 
sinners <02400>: but be thou in the fear <03374> of the LORD 
<03068> all the day <03117> long.

Pro 23:18  For surely there is <03426> an end <0319>; and thine 
expectation <08615> shall not be cut off <03772> (8735).

Pro 23:19 ¶ Hear <08085> (8798) thou, my son <01121>, and be 
wise <02449> (8798), and guide <0833> (8761) thine heart <03820> 
in the way <01870>.

Pro 23:20  Be not among winebibbers <03196> <05433> (8802); 
among riotous eaters <02151> (8802) of flesh <01320>:

Pro 23:21  For the drunkard <05433> (8802) and the glutton 
<02151> (8802) shall come to poverty <03423> (8735): and 
drowsiness <05124> shall clothe <03847> (8686) a man with rags 
<07168>.

Pro 23:22  Hearken <08085> (8798) unto thy father <01> that 
begat <03205> (8804) thee, and despise <0936> (8799) not thy 
mother <0517> when she is old <02204> (8804).

Pro 23:23  Buy <07069> (8798) the truth <0571>, and sell <04376> 
(8799) it not; also wisdom <02451>, and instruction <04148>, and 
understanding <0998>.

Pro 23:24  The father <01> of the righteous <06662> shall 
greatly <01524> rejoice <01523> (8799): and he that begetteth 
<03205> (8802) a wise <02450> child shall have joy <08055> 
(8799) of him.

Pro 23:25  Thy father <01> and thy mother <0517> shall be glad 
<08055> (8799), and she that bare <03205> (8802) thee shall 
rejoice <01523> (8799).

Pro 23:26  My son <01121>, give <05414> (8798) me thine heart 
<03820>, and let thine eyes <05869> observe <07521> (8799) 
<05341> (8799) my ways <01870>.

Pro 23:27  For a whore <02181> (8802) is a deep <06013> ditch 
<07745>; and a strange woman <05237> is a narrow <06862> pit 
<0875>.

Pro 23:28  She also lieth in wait <0693> (8799) as for a prey 
<02863>, and increaseth <03254> (8686) the transgressors <0898> 
(8802) among men <0120>.

Pro 23:29 ¶ Who hath woe <0188>? who hath sorrow <017>? who hath 
contentions <04079> (8675) <04066>? who hath babbling <07879>? 
who hath wounds <06482> without cause <02600>? who hath redness 
<02448> of eyes <05869>?

Pro 23:30  They that tarry long <0309> (8764) at the wine 
<03196>; they that go <0935> (8802) to seek <02713> (8800) mixed 
wine <04469>.

Pro 23:31  Look <07200> (8799) not thou upon the wine <03196> 
when it is red <0119> (8691), when it giveth <05414> (8799) his 
colour <05869> in the cup <03563> (8675) <03599>, when it moveth 
<01980> (8691) itself aright <04339>.

Pro 23:32  At the last <0319> it biteth <05391> (8799) like a 
serpent <05175>, and stingeth <06567> (8686) like an adder 
<06848>.

Pro 23:33  Thine eyes <05869> shall behold <07200> (8799) 
strange women <02114> (8801), and thine heart <03820> shall 
utter <01696> (8762) perverse things <08419>.

Pro 23:34  Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down <07901> 
(8802) in the midst <03820> of the sea <03220>, or as he that 
lieth <07901> (8802) upon the top <07218> of a mast <02260>.

Pro 23:35  They have stricken <05221> (8689) me, shalt thou say, 
and I was not sick <02470> (8804); they have beaten <01986> 
(8804) me, and I felt <03045> (8804) it not: when shall I awake 
<06974> (8686)? I will seek <01245> (8762) it yet <03254> (8686) 
again.

Pro 24:01 ¶ Be not thou envious <07065> (8762) against evil 
<07451> men <0582>, neither desire <0183> (8691) to be with them.

Pro 24:02  For their heart <03820> studieth <01897> (8799) 
destruction <07701>, and their lips <08193> talk <01696> (8762) 
of mischief <05999>.

Pro 24:03 ¶ Through wisdom <02451> is an house <01004> builded 
<01129> (8735); and by understanding <08394> it is established 
<03559> (8709):

Pro 24:04  And by knowledge <01847> shall the chambers <02315> 
be filled <04390> (8735) with all precious <03368> and pleasant 
<05273> riches <01952>.

Pro 24:05  A wise <02450> man <01397> is strong <05797>; yea, a 
man <0376> of knowledge <01847> increaseth <0553> (8764) 
strength <03581>.

Pro 24:06  For by wise counsel <08458> thou shalt make <06213> 
(8799) thy war <04421>: and in multitude <07230> of counsellors 
<03289> (8802) there is safety <08668>.

Pro 24:07 ¶ Wisdom <02454> is too high <07311> (8802) for a fool 
<0191>: he openeth <06605> (8799) not his mouth <06310> in the 
gate <08179>.

Pro 24:08  He that deviseth <02803> (8764) to do evil <07489> 
(8687) shall be called <07121> (8799) a mischievous <04209> 
person <01167>.

Pro 24:09  The thought <02154> of foolishness <0200> is sin 
<02403>: and the scorner <03887> (8801) is an abomination 
<08441> to men <0120>.

Pro 24:10 ¶ If thou faint <07503> (8694) in the day <03117> of 
adversity <06869>, thy strength <03581> is small <06862>.

Pro 24:11 ¶ If thou forbear <02820> (8799) to deliver <05337> 
(8685) them that are drawn <03947> (8803) unto death <04194>, 
and those that are ready <04131> (8801) to be slain <02027>;

Pro 24:12  If thou sayest <0559> (8799), Behold, we knew <03045> 
(8804) it not; doth not he that pondereth <08505> (8802) the 
heart <03826> consider <0995> (8799) it? and he that keepeth 
<05341> (8802) thy soul <05315>, doth not he know <03045> (8799) 
it? and shall not he render <07725> (8689) to every man <0120> 
according to his works <06467>?

Pro 24:13 ¶ My son <01121>, eat <0398> (8798) thou honey <01706>,
 because it is good <02896>; and the honeycomb <05317>, which is 
sweet <04966> to thy taste <02441>:

Pro 24:14  So shall the knowledge <03045> (8798) of wisdom 
<02451> be unto thy soul <05315>: when thou hast found <04672> 
(8804) it, then there shall be <03426> a reward <0319>, and thy 
expectation <08615> shall not be cut off <03772> (8735).

Pro 24:15 ¶ Lay not wait <0693> (8799), O wicked <07563> man, 
against the dwelling <05116> of the righteous <06662>; spoil 
<07703> (8762) not his resting place <07258>:

Pro 24:16  For a just <06662> man falleth <05307> (8799) seven 
times <07651>, and riseth up again <06965> (8804): but the 
wicked <07563> shall fall <03782> (8735) into mischief <07451>.

Pro 24:17 ¶ Rejoice <08055> (8799) not when thine enemy <0341> 
(8802) falleth <05307> (8800), and let not thine heart <03820> 
be glad <01523> (8799) when he stumbleth <03782> (8736):

Pro 24:18  Lest the LORD <03068> see <07200> (8799) it, and it 
displease <07489> (8804) <05869> him, and he turn away <07725> 
(8689) his wrath <0639> from him.

Pro 24:19 ¶ Fret <02734> (8691) not thyself because of evil 
<07489> (8688) men, neither be thou envious <07065> (8762) at 
the wicked <07563>;

Pro 24:20  For there shall be no reward <0319> to the evil 
<07451> man; the candle <05216> of the wicked <07563> shall be 
put out <01846> (8799).

Pro 24:21 ¶ My son <01121>, fear <03372> (8798) thou the LORD 
<03068> and the king <04428>: and meddle <06148> (8691) not with 
them that are given to change <08138> (8802):

Pro 24:22  For their calamity <0343> shall rise <06965> (8799) 
suddenly <06597>; and who knoweth <03045> (8802) the ruin 
<06365> of them both <08147>?

Pro 24:23 ¶ These things also belong to the wise <02450>. It is 
not good <02896> to have respect <05234> (8687) of persons 
<06440> in judgment <04941>.

Pro 24:24  He that saith <0559> (8802) unto the wicked <07563>, 
Thou art righteous <06662>; him shall the people <05971> curse 
<05344> (8799), nations <03816> shall abhor <02194> (8799) him:

Pro 24:25  But to them that rebuke <03198> (8688) him shall be 
delight <05276> (8799), and a good <02896> blessing <01293> 
shall come <0935> (8799) upon them.

Pro 24:26  Every man shall kiss <05401> (8799) his lips <08193> 
that giveth <07725> (8688) a right <05228> answer <01697>.

Pro 24:27 ¶ Prepare <03559> (8685) thy work <04399> without 
<02351>, and make it fit <06257> (8761) for thyself in the field 
<07704>; and afterwards <0310> build <01129> (8804) thine house 
<01004>.

Pro 24:28 ¶ Be not a witness <05707> against thy neighbour 
<07453> without cause <02600>; and deceive <06601> (8765) not 
with thy lips <08193>.

Pro 24:29  Say <0559> (8799) not, I will do <06213> (8799) so to 
him as he hath done <06213> (8804) to me: I will render <07725> 
(8686) to the man <0376> according to his work <06467>.

Pro 24:30 ¶ I went <05674> (8804) by the field <07704> of the 
slothful <0376> <06102>, and by the vineyard <03754> of the man 
<0120> void <02638> of understanding <03820>;

Pro 24:31  And, lo, it was all grown over <05927> (8804) with 
thorns <07063>, and nettles <02738> had covered <03680> (8795) 
the face <06440> thereof, and the stone <068> wall <01444> 
thereof was broken down <02040> (8738).

Pro 24:32  Then I saw <02372> (8799), and considered it well 
<07896> (8799) <03820>: I looked <07200> (8804) upon it, and 
received <03947> (8804) instruction <04148>.

Pro 24:33  Yet a little <04592> sleep <08142>, a little <04592> 
slumber <08572>, a little <04592> folding <02264> of the hands 
<03027> to sleep <07901> (8800):

Pro 24:34  So shall thy poverty <07389> come <0935> (8804) as 
one that travelleth <01980> (8693); and thy want <04270> as an 
armed <04043> man <0376>.

Pro 25:01 ¶ These are also proverbs <04912> of Solomon <08010>, 
which the men <0582> of Hezekiah <02396> king <04428> of Judah 
<03063> copied out <06275> (8689).

Pro 25:02 ¶ It is the glory <03519> of God <0430> to conceal 
<05641> (8687) a thing <01697>: but the honour <03519> of kings 
<04428> is to search out <02713> (8800) a matter <01697>.

Pro 25:03  The heaven <08064> for height <07312>, and the earth 
<0776> for depth <06011>, and the heart <03820> of kings <04428> 
is unsearchable <02714>.

Pro 25:04 ¶ Take away <01898> (8800) the dross <05509> from the 
silver <03701>, and there shall come forth <03318> (8799) a 
vessel <03627> for the finer <06884> (8802).

Pro 25:05  Take away <01898> (8800) the wicked <07563> from 
before <06440> the king <04428>, and his throne <03678> shall be 
established <03559> (8735) in righteousness <06664>.

Pro 25:06 ¶ Put not forth <01921> (8691) thyself in the presence 
<06440> of the king <04428>, and stand <05975> (8799) not in the 
place <04725> of great <01419> men:

Pro 25:07  For better <02896> it is that it be said <0559> 
(8800) unto thee, Come up <05927> (8798) hither; than that thou 
shouldest be put lower <08213> (8687) in the presence <06440> of 
the prince <05081> whom thine eyes <05869> have seen <07200> 
(8804).

Pro 25:08 ¶ Go not forth <03318> (8799) hastily <04118> to 
strive <07378> (8800), lest thou know not what to do <06213> 
(8799) in the end <0319> thereof, when thy neighbour <07453> 
hath put thee to shame <03637> (8687).

Pro 25:09  Debate <07378> (8798) thy cause <07379> with thy 
neighbour <07453> himself; and discover <01540> (8762) not a 
secret <05475> to another <0312>:

Pro 25:10  Lest he that heareth <08085> (8802) it put thee to 
shame <02616> (8762), and thine infamy <01681> turn not away 
<07725> (8799).

Pro 25:11 ¶ A word <01697> fitly <0212> (8675) <0655> spoken 
<01696> (8803) is like apples <08598> of gold <02091> in 
pictures <04906> of silver <03701>.

Pro 25:12  As an earring <05141> of gold <02091>, and an 
ornament <02481> of fine gold <03800>, so is a wise <02450> 
reprover <03198> (8688) upon an obedient <08085> (8802) ear 
<0241>.

Pro 25:13 ¶ As the cold <06793> of snow <07950> in the time 
<03117> of harvest <07105>, so is a faithful <0539> (8737) 
messenger <06735> to them that send <07971> (8802) him: for he 
refresheth <07725> (8686) the soul <05315> of his masters <0113>.

Pro 25:14 ¶ Whoso <0376> boasteth <01984> (8693) himself of a 
false <08267> gift <04991> is like clouds <05387> and wind 
<07307> without rain <01653>.

Pro 25:15 ¶ By long <0753> forbearing <0639> is a prince <07101> 
persuaded <06601> (8792), and a soft <07390> tongue <03956> 
breaketh <07665> (8799) the bone <01634>.

Pro 25:16 ¶ Hast thou found <04672> (8804) honey <01706>? eat 
<0398> (8798) so much as is sufficient <01767> for thee, lest 
thou be filled <07646> (8799) therewith, and vomit <06958> 
(8689) it.

Pro 25:17 ¶ Withdraw <03365> (8685) thy foot <07272> from thy 
neighbour’s <07453> house <01004>; lest he be weary <07646> 
(8799) of thee, and so hate <08130> (8804) thee.

Pro 25:18 ¶ A man <0376> that beareth <06030> (8802) false 
<08267> witness <05707> against his neighbour <07453> is a maul 
<04650>, and a sword <02719>, and a sharp <08150> (8802) arrow 
<02671>.

Pro 25:19 ¶ Confidence <04009> in an unfaithful man <0898> 
(8802) in time <03117> of trouble <06869> is like a broken 
<07465> tooth <08127>, and a foot <07272> out of joint <04154>.

Pro 25:20 ¶ As he that taketh away <05710> (8688) a garment 
<0899> in cold <07135> weather <03117>, and as vinegar <02558> 
upon nitre <05427>, so is he that singeth <07891> (8802) songs 
<07892> to an heavy <07451> heart <03820>.

Pro 25:21 ¶ If thine enemy <08130> (8802) be hungry <07457>, 
give him bread <03899> to eat <0398> (8685); and if he be 
thirsty <06771>, give him water <04325> to drink <08248> (8685):

Pro 25:22  For thou shalt heap <02846> (8802) coals of fire 
<01513> upon his head <07218>, and the LORD <03068> shall reward 
<07999> (8762) thee.

Pro 25:23 ¶ The north <06828> wind <07307> driveth away <02342> 
(8787) rain <01653>: so doth an angry <02194> (8737) countenance 
<06440> a backbiting <05643> tongue <03956>.

Pro 25:24 ¶ It is better <02896> to dwell <03427> (8800) in the 
corner <06438> of the housetop <01406>, than with a brawling 
<04079> (8675) <04066> woman <0802> and in a wide <02267> house 
<01004>.

Pro 25:25 ¶ As cold <07119> waters <04325> to a thirsty <05889> 
soul <05315>, so is good <02896> news <08052> from a far <04801> 
country <0776>.

Pro 25:26 ¶ A righteous <06662> man falling down <04131> (8801) 
before <06440> the wicked <07563> is as a troubled <07515> 
(8737) fountain <04599>, and a corrupt <07843> (8716) spring 
<04726>.

Pro 25:27 ¶ It is not good <02896> to eat <0398> (8800) much 
<07235> (8687) honey <01706>: so for men to search <02714> their 
own glory <03519> is not glory <03519>.

Pro 25:28 ¶ He <0376> that hath no rule <04623> over his own 
spirit <07307> is like a city <05892> that is broken down 
<06555> (8803), and without walls <02346>.

Pro 26:01 ¶ As snow <07950> in summer <07019>, and as rain 
<04306> in harvest <07105>, so honour <03519> is not seemly 
<05000> for a fool <03684>.

Pro 26:02 ¶ As the bird <06833> by wandering <05110> (8800), as 
the swallow <01866> by flying <05774> (8800), so the curse 
<07045> causeless <02600> shall not come <0935> (8799).

Pro 26:03 ¶ A whip <07752> for the horse <05483>, a bridle 
<04964> for the ass <02543>, and a rod <07626> for the fool’s 
<03684> back <01460>.

Pro 26:04 ¶ Answer <06030> (8799) not a fool <03684> according 
to his folly <0200>, lest thou also be like <07737> (8799) unto 
him.

Pro 26:05  Answer <06030> (8798) a fool <03684> according to his 
folly <0200>, lest he be wise <02450> in his own conceit <05869>.

Pro 26:06 ¶ He that sendeth <07971> (8802) a message <01697> by 
the hand <03027> of a fool <03684> cutteth off <07096> (8764) 
the feet <07272>, and drinketh <08354> (8802) damage <02555>.

Pro 26:07  The legs <07785> of the lame <06455> are not equal 
<01809> (8804): so is a parable <04912> in the mouth <06310> of 
fools <03684>.

Pro 26:08  As he that bindeth <06872> (8675) <06887> (8800) a 
stone <068> in a sling <04773>, so is he that giveth <05414> 
(8802) honour <03519> to a fool <03684>.

Pro 26:09  As a thorn <02336> goeth up <05927> (8804) into the 
hand <03027> of a drunkard <07910>, so is a parable <04912> in 
the mouth <06310> of fools <03684>.

Pro 26:10 ¶ The great <07227> God that formed <02342> (8789) all 
things both rewardeth <07936> (8802) the fool <03684>, and 
rewardeth <07936> (8802) transgressors <05674> (8802).

Pro 26:11 ¶ As a dog <03611> returneth <07725> (8804) to his 
vomit <06892>, so a fool <03684> returneth <08138> (8802) to his 
folly <0200>.

Pro 26:12 ¶ Seest <07200> (8804) thou a man <0376> wise <02450> 
in his own conceit <05869>? there is more hope <08615> of a fool 
<03684> than of him.

Pro 26:13 ¶ The slothful <06102> man saith <0559> (8804), There 
is a lion <07826> in the way <01870>; a lion <0738> is in the 
streets <07339>.

Pro 26:14 ¶ As the door <01817> turneth <05437> (8735) upon his 
hinges <06735>, so doth the slothful <06102> upon his bed 
<04296>.

Pro 26:15 ¶ The slothful <06102> hideth <02934> (8804) his hand 
<03027> in his bosom <06747>; it grieveth <03811> (8738) him to 
bring it again <07725> (8687) to his mouth <06310>.

Pro 26:16 ¶ The sluggard <06102> is wiser <02450> in his own 
conceit <05869> than seven men <07651> that can render <07725> 
(8688) a reason <02940>.

Pro 26:17 ¶ He that passeth by <05674> (8802), and meddleth 
<05674> (8693) with strife <07379> belonging not to him, is like 
one that taketh <02388> (8688) a dog <03611> by the ears <0241>.

Pro 26:18 ¶ As a mad <03856> (8700) man who casteth <03384> 
(8802) firebrands <02131>, arrows <02671>, and death <04194>,

Pro 26:19  So is the man <0376> that deceiveth <07411> (8765) 
his neighbour <07453>, and saith <0559> (8804), Am not I in 
sport <07832> (8764)?

Pro 26:20 ¶ Where no <0657> wood <06086> is, there the fire 
<0784> goeth out <03518> (8799): so where there is no talebearer 
<05372>, the strife <04066> ceaseth <08367> (8799).

Pro 26:21  As coals <06352> are to burning coals <01513>, and 
wood <06086> to fire <0784>; so is a contentious <04079> (8675) 
<04066> man <0376> to kindle <02787> (8771) strife <07379>.

Pro 26:22  The words <01697> of a talebearer <05372> are as 
wounds <03859> (8693), and they go down <03381> (8804) into the 
innermost parts <02315> of the belly <0990>.

Pro 26:23 ¶ Burning <01814> (8801) lips <08193> and a wicked 
<07451> heart <03820> are like a potsherd <02789> covered 
<06823> (8794) with silver <03701> dross <05509>.

Pro 26:24 ¶ He that hateth <08130> (8802) dissembleth <05234> 
(8735) with his lips <08193>, and layeth up <07896> (8799) 
deceit <04820> within <07130> him;

Pro 26:25  When he speaketh <06963> fair <02603> (8762), believe 
<0539> (8686) him not: for there are seven <07651> abominations 
<08441> in his heart <03820>.

Pro 26:26  Whose hatred <08135> is covered <03680> (8691) by 
deceit <04860>, his wickedness <07451> shall be shewed <01540> 
(8735) before the whole congregation <06951>.

Pro 26:27 ¶ Whoso diggeth <03738> (8802) a pit <07845> shall 
fall <05307> (8799) therein: and he that rolleth <01556> (8802) 
a stone <068>, it will return <07725> (8799) upon him.

Pro 26:28 ¶ A lying <08267> tongue <03956> hateth <08130> (8799) 
those that are afflicted <01790> by it; and a flattering <02509> 
mouth <06310> worketh <06213> (8799) ruin <04072>.

Pro 27:01 ¶ Boast <01984> (8691) not thyself of to morrow 
<04279>; for thou knowest <03045> (8799) not what a day <03117> 
may bring forth <03205> (8799).

Pro 27:02 ¶ Let another man <02114> (8801) praise <01984> (8762) 
thee, and not thine own mouth <06310>; a stranger <05237>, and 
not thine own lips <08193>.

Pro 27:03 ¶ A stone <068> is heavy <03514>, and the sand <02344> 
weighty <05192>; but a fool’s <0191> wrath <03708> is heavier 
<03515> than them both <08147>.

Pro 27:04  Wrath <02534> is cruel <0395>, and anger <0639> is 
outrageous <07858>; but who is able to stand <05975> (8799) 
before <06440> envy <07068>?

Pro 27:05 ¶ Open <01540> (8794) rebuke <08433> is better <02896> 
than secret <05641> (8794) love <0160>.

Pro 27:06  Faithful <0539> (8737) are the wounds <06482> of a 
friend <0157> (8802); but the kisses <05390> of an enemy <08130> 
(8802) are deceitful <06280> (8737).

Pro 27:07 ¶ The full <07649> soul <05315> loatheth <0947> (8799) 
an honeycomb <05317>; but to the hungry <07457> soul <05315> 
every bitter thing <04751> is sweet <04966>.

Pro 27:08 ¶ As a bird <06833> that wandereth <05074> (8802) from 
her nest <07064>, so is a man <0376> that wandereth <05074> 
(8802) from his place <04725>.

Pro 27:09 ¶ Ointment <08081> and perfume <07004> rejoice <08055> 
(8762) the heart <03820>: so doth the sweetness <04986> of a 
man’s friend <07453> by hearty <05315> counsel <06098>.

Pro 27:10  Thine own friend <07453>, and thy father’s <01> 
friend <07453>, forsake <05800> (8799) not; neither go <0935> 
(8799) into thy brother’s <0251> house <01004> in the day 
<03117> of thy calamity <0343>: for better <02896> is a 
neighbour <07934> that is near <07138> than a brother <0251> far 
off <07350>.

Pro 27:11 ¶ My son <01121>, be wise <02449> (8798), and make my 
heart <03820> glad <08055> (8761), that I may answer <07725> 
(8686) <01697> him that reproacheth <02778> (8802) me.

Pro 27:12 ¶ A prudent <06175> man foreseeth <07200> (8804) the 
evil <07451>, and hideth <05641> (8738) himself; but the simple 
<06612> pass on <05674> (8804), and are punished <06064> (8738).

Pro 27:13 ¶ Take <03947> (8798) his garment <0899> that is 
surety <06148> (8804) for a stranger <02114> (8801), and take a 
pledge <02254> (8798) of him for a strange woman <05237>.

Pro 27:14 ¶ He that blesseth <01288> (8764) his friend <07453> 
with a loud <01419> voice <06963>, rising early <07925> (8687) 
in the morning <01242>, it shall be counted <02803> (8735) a 
curse <07045> to him.

Pro 27:15 ¶ A continual <02956> (8802) dropping <01812> in a 
very rainy <05464> day <03117> and a contentious <04079> (8675) 
<04066> woman <0802> are alike <07737> (8739).

Pro 27:16  Whosoever hideth <06845> (8802) her hideth <06845> 
(8804) the wind <07307>, and the ointment <08081> of his right 
hand <03225>, which bewrayeth <07121> (8799) itself.

Pro 27:17 ¶ Iron <01270> sharpeneth <02300> (8799) iron <01270>; 
so a man <0376> sharpeneth <02300> (8686) the countenance 
<06440> of his friend <07453>.

Pro 27:18 ¶ Whoso keepeth <05341> (8802) the fig tree <08384> 
shall eat <0398> (8799) the fruit <06529> thereof: so he that 
waiteth <08104> (8802) on his master <0113> shall be honoured 
<03513> (8792).

Pro 27:19 ¶ As in water <04325> face <06440> answereth to face 
<06440>, so the heart <03820> of man <0120> to man <0120>.

Pro 27:20 ¶ Hell <07585> and destruction <011> (8675) <010> are 
never <03808> full <07646> (8799); so the eyes <05869> of man 
<0120> are never satisfied <07646> (8799).

Pro 27:21 ¶ As the fining pot <04715> for silver <03701>, and 
the furnace <03564> for gold <02091>; so is a man <0376> to 
<06310> his praise <04110>.

Pro 27:22 ¶ Though thou shouldest bray <03806> (8799) a fool 
<0191> in a mortar <04388> among <08432> wheat <07383> with a 
pestle <05940>, yet will not his foolishness <0200> depart 
<05493> (8799) from him.

Pro 27:23 ¶ Be thou diligent <03045> (8799) to know <03045> 
(8800) the state <06440> of thy flocks <06629>, and look <07896> 
(8798) well <03820> to thy herds <05739>.

Pro 27:24  For riches <02633> are not for ever <05769>: and doth 
the crown <05145> endure to every <01755> generation <01755>?

Pro 27:25  The hay <02682> appeareth <01540> (8804), and the 
tender grass <01877> sheweth <07200> (8738) itself, and herbs 
<06212> of the mountains <02022> are gathered <0622> (8738).

Pro 27:26  The lambs <03532> are for thy clothing <03830>, and 
the goats <06260> are the price <04242> of the field <07704>.

Pro 27:27  And thou shalt have goats <05795>‘ milk <02461> 
enough <01767> for thy food <03899>, for the food <03899> of thy 
household <01004>, and for the maintenance <02416> for thy 
maidens <05291>.

Pro 28:01 ¶ The wicked <07563> flee <05127> (8804) when no man 
pursueth <07291> (8802): but the righteous <06662> are bold 
<0982> (8799) as a lion <03715>.

Pro 28:02 ¶ For the transgression <06588> of a land <0776> many 
<07227> are the princes <08269> thereof: but by a man <0120> of 
understanding <0995> (8688) and knowledge <03045> (8802) the 
state <03651> thereof shall be prolonged <0748> (8686).

Pro 28:03 ¶ A poor <07326> (8802) man <01397> that oppresseth 
<06231> (8802) the poor <01800> is like a sweeping <05502> 
(8802) rain <04306> which leaveth no food <03899>.

Pro 28:04 ¶ They that forsake <05800> (8802) the law <08451> 
praise <01984> (8762) the wicked <07563>: but such as keep 
<08104> (8802) the law <08451> contend <01624> (8691) with them.

Pro 28:05 ¶ Evil <07451> men <0582> understand <0995> (8799) not 
judgment <04941>: but they that seek <01245> (8764) the LORD 
<03068> understand <0995> (8799) all things.

Pro 28:06 ¶ Better <02896> is the poor <07326> (8802) that 
walketh <01980> (8802) in his uprightness <08537>, than he that 
is perverse <06141> in his ways <01870>, though he be rich 
<06223>.

Jakeh <03348>, even the prophecy <04853>: the man <01397> spake 
<05002> (8803) unto Ithiel <0384>, even unto Ithiel <0384> and 
Ucal <0401>,

<08064>, or descended <03381> (8799)? who hath gathered <0622> 
(8804) the wind <07307> in his fists <02651>? who hath bound 
<06887> (8804) the waters <04325> in a garment <08071>? who hath 
established <06965> (8689) all the ends <0657> of the earth 
<0776>? what is his name <08034>, and what is his son’s <01121> 
name <08034>, if thou canst tell <03045> (8799)?

Pro 30:05  Every word <0565> of God <0433> is pure <06884>

thee; deny <04513> (8799) me them not before I die <04191> 
(8799):

(8765) thee, and say <0559> (8804), Who is the LORD <03068>? or 
lest I be poor <03423> (8735), and steal <01589> (8804), and 
take <08610> (8804) the name <08034> of my God <0430> in vain.

Pro 30:10 ¶ Accuse <03960> (8686) not a servant <05650> unto his

found guilty <0816> (8804).

Pro 30:11  There is a generation <01755> that curseth <07043> 
(8762) their father <01>, and doth not bless <01288> (8762) 
their mother <0517>.

from their filthiness <06675>.

(8804) are their eyes <05869>! and their eyelids <06079> are 
lifted up <05375> (8735).

Pro 30:14  There is a generation <01755>, whose teeth <08127> 
are as swords <02719>, and their jaw teeth <04973> as knives 
<03979>, to devour <0398> (8800) the poor <06041> from off the 
earth <0776>, and the needy <034> from among men <0120>.

Pro 30:15 ¶ The horseleach <05936> hath two <08147> daughters 
<01323>, crying, Give <03051> (8798), give <03051> (8798). There 
are three <07969> things that are never satisfied <07646> (8799),
 yea, four <0702> things say <0559> (8804) not, It is enough 
<01952>:

Pro 30:16  The grave <07585>; and the barren <06115> womb 
<07356>; the earth <0776> that is not filled <07646> (8804) with 
water <04325>; and the fire <0784> that saith <0559> (8804) not, 
It is enough <01952>.

Pro 30:17  The eye <05869> that mocketh <03932> (8799) at his 
father <01>, and despiseth <0936> (8799) to obey <03349> his 
mother <0517>, the ravens <06158> of the valley <05158> shall 
pick it out <05365> (8799), and the young <01121> eagles <05404> 
shall eat <0398> (8799) it.

Pro 30:18 ¶ There be three <07969> things which are too 
wonderful <06381> (8738) for me, yea, four <0702> which I know 
<03045> (8804) not:

Pro 30:19  The way <01870> of an eagle <05404> in the air 
<08064>; the way <01870> of a serpent <05175> upon a rock 
<06697>; the way <01870> of a ship <0591> in the midst <03820> 
of the sea <03220>; and the way <01870> of a man <01397> with a 
maid <05959>.

Pro 30:20  Such is the way <01870> of an adulterous <05003> 
(8764) woman <0802>; she eateth <0398> (8804), and wipeth 
<04229> (8804) her mouth <06310>, and saith <0559> (8804), I 
have done <06466> (8804) no wickedness <0205>.

Pro 30:21  For three <07969> things the earth <0776> is 
disquieted <07264> (8804), and for four <0702> which it cannot 
<03201> (8799) bear <05375> (8800):

Pro 30:22  For a servant <05650> when he reigneth <04427> (8799);
 and a fool <05036> when he is filled <07646> (8799) with meat 
<03899>;

Pro 30:23  For an odious <08130> (8803) woman when she is 
married <01166> (8735); and an handmaid <08198> that is heir 
<03423> (8799) to her mistress <01404>.

Pro 30:24 ¶ There be four <0702> things which are little <06996> 
upon the earth <0776>, but they are exceeding <02449> (8794) 
wise <02450>:

Pro 30:25  The ants <05244> are a people <05971> not strong 
<05794>, yet they prepare <03559> (8686) their meat <03899> in 
the summer <07019>;

Pro 30:26  The conies <08227> are but a feeble <06099> folk 
<05971>, yet make <07760> (8799) they their houses <01004> in 
the rocks <05553>;

Pro 30:27  The locusts <0697> have no king <04428>, yet go they 
forth <03318> (8799) all of them by bands <02686> (8802);

Pro 30:28  The spider <08079> taketh hold <08610> (8762) with 
her hands <03027>, and is in kings <04428>‘ palaces <01964>.

<03190> (8688), yea, four <0702> are comely <02895> (8688) in 
going <03212> (8800):

Pro 30:30  A lion <03918> which is strongest <01368> among 
beasts <0929>, and turneth not away <07725> (8799) for <06440> 
any;

Pro 30:31  A greyhound <04975> <02223>; an he goat <08495> also 
<0176>; and a king <04428>, against whom there is no rising up 
<0510>.

Pro 30:32  If thou hast done foolishly <05034> (8804) in lifting 
up <05375> (8692) thyself, or if thou hast thought evil <02161> 
(8804), lay thine hand <03027> upon thy mouth <06310>.

Pro 30:33  Surely the churning <04330> of milk <02461> bringeth 
forth <03318> (8686) butter <02529>, and the wringing <04330> of 
the nose <0639> bringeth forth <03318> (8686) blood <01818>: so 
the forcing <04330> of wrath <0639> bringeth forth <03318> 
(8686) strife <07379>.

Pro 31:01 ¶ The words <01697> of king <04428> Lemuel <03927>, 
the prophecy <04853> that his mother <0517> taught <03256> 
(8765) him.

Pro 31:02  What, my son <01248>? and what, the son <01248> of my 
womb <0990>? and what, the son <01248> of my vows <05088>?

Pro 31:03  Give <05414> (8799) not thy strength <02428> unto 
women <0802>, nor thy ways <01870> to that which destroyeth 
<04229> (8687) kings <04428>.

Pro 31:04  It is not for kings <04428>, O Lemuel <03927>, it is 
not for kings <04428> to drink <08354> (8800) wine <03196>; nor 
for <0335> (8675) <0176> princes <07336> (8802) strong drink 
<07941>:

Pro 31:05  Lest they drink <08354> (8799), and forget <07911> 
(8799) the law <02710> (8794), and pervert <08138> (8762) the 
judgment <01779> of any of the afflicted <01121> <06040>.

Pro 31:06  Give <05414> (8798) strong drink <07941> unto him 
that is ready to perish <06> (8802), and wine <03196> unto those 
that be of heavy <04751> hearts <05315>.

Pro 31:07  Let him drink <08354> (8799), and forget <07911> 
(8799) his poverty <07389>, and remember <02142> (8799) his 
misery <05999> no more.

Pro 31:08  Open <06605> (8798) thy mouth <06310> for the dumb 
<0483> in the cause <01779> of all such as are appointed <01121> 
to destruction <02475>.

Pro 31:09  Open <06605> (8798) thy mouth <06310>, judge <08199> 
(8798) righteously <06664>, and plead <01777> (8798) the cause 
of the poor <06041> and needy <034>.

Pro 31:10 ¶ Who can find <04672> (8799) a virtuous <02428> woman 
<0802>? for her price <04377> is far <07350> above rubies 
<06443>.

Pro 31:11  The heart <03820> of her husband <01167> doth safely 
trust <0982> (8804) in her, so that he shall have no need 
<02637> (8799) of spoil <07998>.

Pro 31:12  She will do <01580> (8804) him good <02896> and not 
evil <07451> all the days <03117> of her life <02416>.

Pro 31:13  She seeketh <01875> (8804) wool <06785>, and flax 
<06593>, and worketh <06213> (8799) willingly <02656> with her 
hands <03709>.

Pro 31:14  She is like the merchants <05503> (8802)‘ ships 
<0591>; she bringeth <0935> (8686) her food <03899> from afar 
<04801>.

Pro 31:15  She riseth <06965> (8799) also while it is yet night 
<03915>, and giveth <05414> (8799) meat <02964> to her household 
<01004>, and a portion <02706> to her maidens <05291>.

Pro 31:16  She considereth <02161> (8804) a field <07704>, and 
buyeth <03947> (8799) it: with the fruit <06529> of her hands 
<03709> she planteth <05193> (8804) a vineyard <03754>.

Pro 31:17  She girdeth <02296> (8804) her loins <04975> with 
strength <05797>, and strengtheneth <0553> (8762) her arms 
<02220>.

Pro 31:18  She perceiveth <02938> (8804) that her merchandise 
<05504> is good <02896>: her candle <05216> goeth not out 
<03518> (8799) by night <03915>.

Pro 31:19  She layeth <07971> (8765) her hands <03027> to the 
spindle <03601>, and her hands <03709> hold <08551> (8804) the 
distaff <06418>.

Pro 31:20  She stretcheth out <06566> (8804) her hand <03709> to 
the poor <06041>; yea, she reacheth forth <07971> (8765) her 
hands <03027> to the needy <034>.

Pro 31:21  She is not afraid <03372> (8799) of the snow <07950> 
for her household <01004>: for all her household <01004> are 
clothed <03847> (8803) with scarlet <08144>.

Pro 31:22  She maketh <06213> (8804) herself coverings of 
tapestry <04765>; her clothing <03830> is silk <08336> and 
purple <0713>.

Pro 31:23  Her husband <01167> is known <03045> (8737) in the 
gates <08179>, when he sitteth <03427> (8800) among the elders 
<02205> of the land <0776>.

Pro 31:24  She maketh <06213> (8804) fine linen <05466>, and 
selleth <04376> (8799) it; and delivereth <05414> (8804) girdles 
<02289> unto the merchant <03669>.

Pro 31:25  Strength <05797> and honour <01926> are her clothing 
<03830>; and she shall rejoice <07832> (8799) in time <03117> to 
come <0314>.

Pro 31:26  She openeth <06605> (8804) her mouth <06310> with 
wisdom <02451>; and in her tongue <03956> is the law <08451> of 
kindness <02617>.

Pro 31:27  She looketh well <06822> (8802) to the ways <01979> 
(8675) <01979> of her household <01004>, and eateth <0398> 
(8799) not the bread <03899> of idleness <06104>.

Pro 31:28  Her children <01121> arise up <06965> (8804), and 
call her blessed <0833> (8762); her husband <01167> also, and he 
praiseth <01984> (8762) her.

Pro 31:29  Many <07227> daughters <01323> have done <06213> 
(8804) virtuously <02428>, but thou excellest <05927> (8804) 
them all.

Pro 31:30  Favour <02580> is deceitful <08267>, and beauty 
<03308> is vain <01892>: but a woman <0802> that feareth <03373> 
the LORD <03068>, she shall be praised <01984> (8691).

Pro 31:31  Give <05414> (8798) her of the fruit <06529> of her 
hands <03027>; and let her own works <04639> praise <01984> 
(8762) her in the gates <08179>.
