Proverbs 28:1--29:27
For the transgression
<06588>
<06588>
of a land
<0776>
<0776>
many
<07227>
<07227>
[are] the princes
<08269>
<08269>
thereof: but by a man
<0120>
<0120>
the state
<03651>
{by...: or, by men of understanding and wisdom shall they likewise be prolonged}<03651>
man
<01397>
<01397>
the poor
<01800>
<01800>
rain
<04306>
<04306>
which leaveth no food
<03899>_.
{which...: Heb. without food}<03899>_.
Better
<02896>
<02896>
in his uprightness
<08537>_,
<08537>_,
than [he that is] perverse
<06141>
<06141>
[in his] ways
<01870>_,
<01870>_,
though he [be] rich
<06223>_.
<06223>_.
He that by usury
<05392>
<05392>
and unjust gain
<08636>
<08636>
his substance
<01952>_,
<01952>_,
the poor
<01800>_.
{unjust...: Heb. by increase}<01800>_.
Whoso causeth the righteous
<03477>
<03477>
in an evil
<07451>
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
<01870>_,
himself into his own pit
<07816>_:
<07816>_:
but the upright
<08549>
<08549>
shall have good
<02896>
<02896>
The rich
<06223>
<06223>
man
<0376>
<0376>
[is] wise
<02450>
<02450>
in his own conceit
<05869>_;
<05869>_;
but the poor
<01800>
{own...: Heb. eyes}<01800>
When righteous
<06662>
<06662>
[there is] great
<07227>
<07227>
glory
<08597>_:
<08597>_:
but when the wicked
<07563>
<07563>
a man
<0120>
{hidden: or, sought for}<0120>
his sins
<06588>
<06588>
The prince
<05057>
<05057>
that wanteth
<02638>
<02638>
understanding
<08394>
<08394>
[is] also a great
<07227>
<07227>
oppressor
<04642>_:
<04642>_:
covetousness
<01215>
<01215>
[his] days
<03117>_.
<03117>_.
A faithful
<0530>
<0530>
man
<0376>
<0376>
shall abound
<07227>
<07227>
with blessings
<01293>_:
{innocent: or, unpunished}<01293>_:
of persons
<06440>
<06440>
[is] not good
<02896>_:
<02896>_:
for for a piece
<06595>
<06595>
of bread
<03899>
<03899>
[that] man
<01397>
<01397>
He
<0376>
<0376>
to be rich
<01952>
<01952>
[hath] an evil
<07451>
<07451>
eye
<05869>_,
<05869>_,
not that poverty
<02639>
upon him. {hasteth...: or, hath and evil eye hasteth to be rich}<02639>
his father
<01>
<01>
or his mother
<0517>_,
<0517>_,
[It is] no transgression
<06588>_;
<06588>_;
the same [is] the companion
<02270>
{a destroyer: Heb. a man destroying}<02270>
He
<0376>_,
<0376>_,
that being often reproved
<08433>
<08433>
[his] neck
<06203>_,
<06203>_,
shall suddenly
<06621>
<06621>
and that without remedy
<04832>_.
{He...: Heb. A man of reproofs}<04832>_.
When the righteous
<06662>
<06662>
the people
<05971>
<05971>
but when the wicked
<07563>
<07563>
the people
<05971>
{in...: or, increased}<05971>
The king
<04428>
<04428>
by judgment
<04941>
<04941>
the land
<0776>_:
<0776>_:
but he
<0376>
<0376>
that receiveth gifts
<08641>
it. {he...: Heb. a man of oblations}<08641>
In the transgression
<06588>
<06588>
of an evil
<07451>
<07451>
man
<0376>
<0376>
[there is] a snare
<04170>_:
<04170>_:
but the righteous
<06662>
<06662>
and rejoice
<08056>_.
<08056>_.
The righteous
<06662>
<06662>
the cause
<01779>
<01779>
of the poor
<01800>_:
<01800>_:
[but] the wicked
<07563>
<07563>
not to know
<01847>
[it].<01847>
Scornful
<03944>
<03944>
men
<0582>
<0582>
a city
<07151>
<07151>
but wise
<02450>
<02450>
wrath
<0639>_.
{bring...: or, set a city on fire}<0639>_.
[are] wicked
<07563>_.
<07563>_.
and the deceitful
<08501>
<08501>
man
<0376>
<0376>
the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
both
<08147>
<08147>
their eyes
<05869>_.
{the deceitful...: or, the usurer}<05869>_.
The rod
<07626>
<07626>
and reproof
<08433>
<08433>
wisdom
<02451>_:
<02451>_:
but a child
<05288>
<05288>
[to himself] bringeth his mother
<0517>
<0517>
Where [there is] no vision
<02377>_,
<02377>_,
the people
<05971>
<05971>
the law
<08451>_,
<08451>_,
happy
<0835>
[is] he. {perish: or, is made naked}<0835>
thou a man
<0376>
<0376>
in his words
<01697>_?
<01697>_?
[there is] more hope
<08615>
<08615>
of a fool
<03684>
than of him. {words: or, matters?}<03684>
his servant
<05650>
<05650>
from a child
<05290>
<05290>
shall have him become [his] son
<04497>
<04497>
at the length
<0319>_.
<0319>_.
An angry
<0639>
<0639>
man
<0376>
<0376>
strife
<04066>_,
<04066>_,
and a furious
<02534>
<02534>
man
<01167>
<01167>
aboundeth in
<07227>
<07227>
transgression
