Proverbs 20
The fear
<0367>
<0367>
of a king
<04428>
<04428>
[is] as the roaring
<05099>
<05099>
of a lion
<03715>_:
<03715>_:
[against] his own soul
<05315>_.
<05315>_.
[It is] an honour
<03519>
<03519>
for a man
<0376>
<0376>
to cease
<07674>
<07674>
from strife
<07379>_:
<07379>_:
but every fool
<0191>
<0191>
The sluggard
<06102>
<06102>
by reason of the cold
<02779>_;
<02779>_;
in harvest
<07105>_,
and [have] nothing. {cold: or, winter}<07105>_,
Counsel
<06098>
<06098>
in the heart
<03820>
<03820>
of man
<0376>
<0376>
[is like] deep
<06013>
<06013>
water
<04325>_;
<04325>_;
but a man
<0376>
<0376>
of understanding
<08394>
<08394>
Most
<07230>
<07230>
men
<0120>
<0120>
every one
<0376>
<0376>
his own goodness
<02617>_:
<02617>_:
but a faithful
<0529>
<0529>
man
<0376>
{goodness: or, bounty}<0376>
The just
<06662>
<06662>
in his integrity
<08537>_:
<08537>_:
his children
<01121>
<01121>
[are] blessed
<0835>
<0835>
after
<0310>
him.<0310>
both
<08147>
<08147>
of them [are] alike
<01571>
<01571>
abomination
<08441>
<08441>
to the LORD
<03068>_.
{Divers weights: Heb. A stone and a stone} {divers measures: Heb. an ephah and an ephah}<03068>_.
Even a child
<05288>
<05288>
by his doings
<04611>_,
<04611>_,
whether his work
<06467>
<06467>
[be] pure
<02134>_,
<02134>_,
and whether [it be] right
<03477>_.
<03477>_.
There is
<03426>
<03426>
gold
<02091>_,
<02091>_,
and a multitude
<07230>
<07230>
of rubies
<06443>_:
<06443>_:
but the lips
<08193>
<08193>
of knowledge
<01847>
<01847>
[are] a precious
<03366>
<03366>
jewel
<03627>_.
<03627>_.
Bread
<03899>
<03899>
of deceit
<08267>
<08267>
[is] sweet
<06156>
<06156>
to a man
<0376>_;
<0376>_;
but afterwards
<0310>
<0310>
his mouth
<06310>
<06310>
with gravel
<02687>_.
{deceit: Heb. lying, or, falsehood}<02687>_.
[are] an abomination
<08441>
<08441>
unto the LORD
<03068>_;
<03068>_;
and a false
<04820>
<04820>
balance
<03976>
<03976>
[is] not good
<02896>_.
{a false...: Heb. balance of deceit}<02896>_.
[It is] a snare
<04170>
<04170>
to the man
<0120>
<0120>
[that which is] holy
<06944>_,
<06944>_,
and after
<0310>
<0310>
vows
<05088>
<05088>
The spirit
<05397>
<05397>
of man
<0120>
<0120>
[is] the candle
<05216>
<05216>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
all the inward parts
<02315>
<02315>
of the belly
<0990>_.
{candle: or, lamp}<0990>_.
