1 Wine H3196 is a mocker H3887 , strong drink H7941 is raging H1993 : and whosoever H3605 W-CMS is deceived H7686 thereby is not H3808 NADV wise H2449 .
2 The fear H367 of a king H4428 NMS is as the roaring H5099 of a lion H3715 : whoso provoketh him to anger H5674 sinneth H2398 against his own soul H5315 CFS-3MS .
3 It is an honor H3519 for a man H376 LD-NMS to cease H7674 from strife H7379 : but every H3605 W-CMS fool H191 AMS will be meddling H1566 .
4 The sluggard H6102 will not H3808 NADV plow H2790 by reason of the cold H2779 ; therefore shall he beg H7592 in harvest H7105 , and have nothing H369 .
5 Counsel H6098 NFS in the heart H3820 of man H376 NMS is like deep H6013 water H4325 OMD ; but a man H376 NMS of understanding H8394 NFS will draw it out H1802 .
6 Most H7230 men H120 NMS will proclaim H7121 VQY3MS every one H376 NMS his own goodness H2617 : but a faithful H529 man H376 NMS who H4310 IPRO can find H4672 ?
7 The just H6662 AMS man walketh H1980 VTPMS in his integrity H8537 : his children H1121 CMP-3MS are blessed H835 CMP after H310 him .
8 A king H4428 NMS that sitteth H3427 VQPMS in H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of judgment H1779 scattereth away H2219 all H3605 NMS evil H7451 AMS with his eyes H5869 .
9 Who H4310 IPRO can say H559 VQY3MS , I have made my heart H3820 NMS-1MS clean H2135 , I am pure H2891 from my sin H2403 ?
10 Divers weights H68 GFS , and divers measures H374 , both H8147 of them are alike H1571 CONJ abomination H8441 to the LORD H3068 EDS .
11 Even H1571 CONJ a child H5288 is known H5234 by his doings H4611 , whether H518 PART his work H6467 be pure H2134 AMS , and whether H518 PART it be right H3477 AMS .
12 The hearing H8085 ear H241 NFS , and the seeing H7200 eye H5869 W-NMS , the LORD H3068 EDS hath made H6213 VQQ3MS even H1571 CONJ both H8147 of them .
13 Love H157 not H408 NPAR sleep H8142 , lest H6435 CONJ thou come to poverty H3423 ; open H6491 thine eyes H5869 CMD-2MS , and thou shalt be satisfied H7646 with bread H3899 NMS .
14 It is naught H7451 AMS , it is naught H7451 AMS , saith H559 VQY3MS the buyer H7069 : but when he is gone his way H235 , then H227 ADV he boasteth H1984 .
15 There is H3426 PART gold H2091 NMS , and a multitude H7230 of rubies H6443 : but the lips H8193 of knowledge H1847 NFS are a precious H3366 NMS jewel H3627 .
16 Take H3947 his garment H899 NMS-3MS that H3588 CONJ is surety H6148 VQQ3MS for a stranger H2114 VQPMS : and take a pledge H2254 VPI2MS-3MS of him for H1157 W-PREP a strange woman H5237 .
17 Bread H3899 NMS of deceit H8267 NMS is sweet H6156 to a man H376 LD-NMS ; but afterwards H310 W-ADV his mouth H6310 shall be filled H4390 with gravel H2687 .
18 Every purpose H4284 is established H3559 by counsel H6098 : and with good advice H8458 make H6213 VQI2MS war H4421 .
19 He that goeth about H1980 VQPMS as a talebearer H7400 revealeth H1540 secrets H5475 : therefore meddle H6148 not H3808 NADV with him that flattereth H6601 with his lips H8193 CFD-3MS .
20 Whoso curseth H7043 his father H1 CMS-3MS or his mother H517 , his lamp H5216 CMS-3MS shall be put out H1846 in obscure H380 darkness H2822 NMS .
21 An inheritance H5159 NFS may be gotten hastily H926 at the beginning H7223 BD-AFS ; but the end H319 thereof shall not H3808 NADV be blessed H1288 .
22 Say H559 not H408 NPAR thou , I will recompense H7999 evil H7451 AMS ; but wait H6960 on the LORD H3068 L-EDS , and he shall save H3467 thee .
23 Divers weights H68 GFS are an abomination H8441 unto the LORD H3068 EDS ; and a false H4820 NFS balance H3976 is not H3808 NADV good H2896 AMS .
24 Man H1397 \'s goings H4703 are of the LORD H3068 ; how H4100 IPRO can a man H120 W-NMS then understand H995 his own way H1870 ?
25 It is a snare H4170 to the man H120 NMS who devoureth H3216 that which is holy H6944 , and after H310 W-ADV vows H5088 to make inquiry H1239 .
26 A wise H2450 AMS king H4428 NMS scattereth H2219 the wicked H7563 AMP , and bringeth H7725 W-VHY3MS the wheel H212 over H5921 PREP-3MP them .
27 The spirit H5397 CFS of man H120 NMS is the candle H5216 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , searching H2664 all H3605 NMS the inward parts H2315 of the belly H990 .
28 Mercy H2617 NMS and truth H571 preserve H5341 the king H4428 NMS : and his throne H3678 is upheld H5582 by mercy H2617 .
29 The glory H8597 of young men H970 is their strength H3581 : and the beauty H1926 of old men H2205 AMP is the gray head H7872 .
30 The blueness H2250 of a wound H6482 cleanseth away H8562 evil H7451 : so do stripes H4347 the inward parts H2315 of the belly H990 .
