Proverbs 1:1-33
The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.A wise[ man] will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.The fear of the LORD[ is] the beginning of knowledge:[ but] fools despise wisdom and instruction.My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:For they[ shall be] an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.And they lay wait for their[ own] blood; they lurk privily for their[ own] lives.So[ are] the ways of every one that is greedy of gain;[ which] taketh away the life of the owners thereof.Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words,[ saying],How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

Job 33:14-16

Proverbs 27:1-28:28
Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.A stone[ is] heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrath[ is] heavier than them both.Wrath[ is] cruel, and anger[ is] outrageous; but who[ is] able to stand before envy?Open rebuke[ is] better than secret love.Faithful[ are] the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy[ are] deceitful.The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet.As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so[ is] a man that wandereth from his place.Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so[ doth] the sweetness of a man’s friend by hearty counsel.Thine own friend, and thy father’s friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy calamity:[ for] better[ is] a neighbour[ that is] near than a brother far off.My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me.A prudent[ man] foreseeth the evil,[ and] hideth himself;[ but] the simple pass on,[ and] are punished.Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman.He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him.A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand,[ which] bewrayeth[ itself].Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured.As in water face[ answereth] to face, so the heart of man to man.Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.[ As] the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so[ is] a man to his praise.Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle,[ yet] will not his foolishness depart from him.Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks,[ and] look well to thy herds.For riches[ are] not for ever: and doth the crown[ endure] to every generation?The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.The lambs[ are] for thy clothing, and the goats[ are] the price of the field.And[ thou shalt have] goats’ milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and[ for] the maintenance for thy maidens.The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.For the transgression of a land many[ are] the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding[ and] knowledge the state[ thereof] shall be prolonged.A poor man that oppresseth the poor[ is like] a sweeping rain which leaveth no food.They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them.Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all[ things].Better[ is] the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than[ he that is] perverse[ in his] ways, though he[ be] rich.Whoso keepeth the law[ is] a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous[ men] shameth his father.He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer[ shall be] abomination.Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good[ things] in possession.The rich man[ is] wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out.When righteous[ men] do rejoice,[ there is] great glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden.He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh[ them] shall have mercy.Happy[ is] the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.[ As] a roaring lion, and a ranging bear;[ so is] a wicked ruler over the poor people.The prince that wanteth understanding[ is] also a great oppressor:[ but] he that hateth covetousness shall prolong[ his] days.A man that doeth violence to the blood of[ any] person shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him.Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but[ he that is] perverse[ in his] ways shall fall at once.He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain[ persons] shall have poverty enough.A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.To have respect of persons[ is] not good: for for a piece of bread[ that] man will transgress.He that hasteth to be rich[ hath] an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him.He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue.Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith,[ It is] no transgression; the same[ is] the companion of a destroyer.He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat.He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase.
