Proverbs 24:1-34

Be not thou envious
<07065> (8762)

against evil
<07451>

men
<0582>_,

neither desire
<0183> (8691)

to be with them.

For their heart
<03820>

studieth
<01897> (8799)

destruction
<07701>_,

and their lips
<08193>

talk
<01696> (8762)

of mischief
<05999>_.

Through wisdom
<02451>

is an house
<01004>

builded
<01129> (8735)_;

and by understanding
<08394>

it is established
<03559> (8709)_:

And by knowledge
<01847>

shall the chambers
<02315>

be filled
<04390> (8735)

with all precious
<03368>

and pleasant
<05273>

riches
<01952>_.

A wise
<02450>

man
<01397>

[is] strong
<05797>_;

yea, a man
<0376>

of knowledge
<01847>

increaseth
<0553> (8764)

strength
<03581>_.

{is strong: Heb. is in strength} {increaseth...: Heb. strengtheneth might}

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>_.

Wisdom
<02454>

[is] too high
<07311> (8802)

for a fool
<0191>_:

he openeth
<06605> (8799)

not his mouth
<06310>

in the gate
<08179>_.

He that deviseth
<02803> (8764)

to do evil
<07489> (8687)

shall be called
<07121> (8799)

a mischievous
<04209>

person
<01167>_.

The thought
<02154>

of foolishness
<0200>

[is] sin
<02403>_:

and the scorner
<03887> (8801)

[is] an abomination
<08441>

to men
<0120>_.

[If] thou faint
<07503> (8694)

in the day
<03117>

of adversity
<06869>_,

thy strength
<03581>

[is] small
<06862>_.

{small: Heb. narrow}

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>_;

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>_?

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>_:

{to...: Heb. upon thy palate}

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)_.

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>_:

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>_.

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)_:

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. {it displeaseth...: Heb. it be evil in his eyes}

Fret
<02734> (8691)

not thyself because of evil
<07489> (8688)

[men], neither be thou envious
<07065> (8762)

at the wicked
<07563>_;

{Fret...: or, Keep not company with the wicked}

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)_.

{candle: or, lamp}

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)_:

{them...: Heb. changers}

For their calamity
<0343>

shall rise
<06965> (8799)

suddenly
<06597>_;

and who knoweth
<03045> (8802)

the ruin
<06365>

of them both
<08147>_?

These [things] also [belong] to the wise
<02450>_.

[It is] not good
<02896>

to have respect
<05234> (8687)

of persons
<06440>

in judgment
<04941>_.

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:

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. {a good...: Heb. a blessing of good}

[Every man] shall kiss
<05401> (8799)

[his] lips
<08193>

that giveth
<07725> (8688)

a right
<05228>

answer
<01697>_.

{that...: Heb. that answereth right words}

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>_.

Be not a witness
<05707>

against thy neighbour
<07453>

without cause
<02600>_;

and deceive
<06601> (8765)

[not] with thy lips
<08193>_.

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>_.

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>_;

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)_.

Then I saw
<02372> (8799)_,

[and] considered [it] well
<07896> (8799) <03820>_:

I looked
<07200> (8804)

upon [it, and] received
<03947> (8804)

instruction
<04148>_.

{considered...: Heb. set my heart}

[Yet] a little
<04592>

sleep
<08142>_,

a little
<04592>

slumber
<08572>_,

a little
<04592>

folding
<02264>

of the hands
<03027>

to sleep
<07901> (8800)_:

So shall thy poverty
<07389>

come
<0935> (8804)

[as] one that travelleth
<01980> (8693)_;

and thy want
<04270>

as an armed
<04043>

man
<0376>_.

{an...: Heb. a man of shield}
