Proverbs 1:1 (NIRV) New International Reader's Version

1 These are the proverbs of Solomon. He was the son of David and the king of Israel.
2 Proverbs teach you wisdom and train you. They help you understand wise sayings.
3 They provide you with training and help you live wisely. They lead to what is right and honest and fair.
4 They give understanding to childish people. They give knowledge and good sense to those who are young.
5 Let wise people listen and add to what they have learned. Let those who understand what is right get guidance.
6 What I'm teaching also helps you understand proverbs and stories. It helps you understand the sayings and riddles of those who are wise.
7 If you really want to gain knowledge, you must begin by having respect for the Lord. But foolish people hate wisdom and training.
8 My son, listen to your father's advice. Don't turn away from your mother's teaching.
9 What they teach you will be like a beautiful crown on your head. It will be like a chain to decorate your neck.
10 My son, if sinners tempt you, don't give in to them.
11 They might say, "Come along with us. Let's hide and wait to spill someone's blood. Let's catch some harmless people in our trap.
12 Let's swallow them alive, as the grave does. Let's swallow them whole, like those who go down into the pit.
13 We'll get all kinds of valuable things. We'll fill our houses with what we steal.
14 Come and join our gang. We'll share everything we have."
15 My son, don't go along with them. Don't even set your feet on their paths.
16 They are always in a hurry to sin. They are quick to spill someone's blood.
17 How useless it is to spread a net while all the birds are watching!
18 Those who hide and wait will spill their own blood. They will be caught in their own trap.
19 That's what happens to everyone who goes after money in the wrong way. That kind of money takes away the lives of those who get it.
20 Wisdom calls out in the street. She raises her voice in public places.
21 At the noisy street corners she cries out. Here is what she says near the gates of the city.
22 "How long will you childish people love your childish ways? How long will you rude people enjoy making fun of God and others? How long will you foolish people hate knowledge?
23 Suppose you had paid attention to my warning. Then I would have poured out my heart to you. I would have told you what I was thinking.
24 But you turned away from me when I called out to you. None of you paid attention when I reached out my hand.
25 You turned away from all my advice. You wouldn't accept my warning.
26 So I will laugh at you when you are in danger. I will make fun of you when hard times come.
27 I will laugh when hard times hit you like a storm. I will laugh when danger comes your way like a windstorm. I will make fun of you when suffering and trouble come.
28 "Then you will call to me. But I won't answer. You will look for me. But you won't find me.
29 You hated knowledge. You didn't choose to have respect for the Lord.
30 You wouldn't accept my advice. You turned your backs on my warnings.
31 So you will eat the fruit of the way you have lived. You will choke on the fruit of what you have planned.
32 "Childish people go down the wrong path. They will die. Foolish people are satisfied with the way they live. They will be destroyed.
33 But those who listen to me will live in safety. They will not worry. They won't be afraid of getting hurt."
1 The proverbs H4912 CMP of Solomon H8010 MMS the son H1121 CMS of David H1732 MMS , king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 LMS ;
2 To know H3045 L-VQFC wisdom H2451 NFS and instruction H4148 W-NMS ; to perceive H995 L-VHFC the words H561 CMP of understanding H998 NFS ;
3 To receive H3947 L-VQFC the instruction H4148 CMS of wisdom H7919 VHFA , justice H6664 NMS , and judgment H4941 W-NMS , and equity H4339 W-NMP ;
4 To give H5414 L-VQFC subtlety H6195 NFS to the simple H6612 L-NMP , to the young man H5288 L-NMS knowledge H1847 NFS and discretion H4209 W-NFS .
5 A wise H2450 AMS man will hear H8085 VQY3MS , and will increase H3254 W-VHI3MS learning H3948 NMS ; and a man of understanding H995 W-VNPMS shall attain H7069 VQY3MS unto wise counsels H8458 NFP :
6 To understand H995 L-VHFC a proverb H4912 NMS , and the interpretation H4426 W-NFS ; the words H1697 CMP of the wise H2450 AMP , and their dark sayings H2420 W-CFS-3MP .
7 The fear H3374 CFS of the LORD H3068 EDS is the beginning H7225 CFS of knowledge H1847 NFS : but fools H191 NMP despise H936 VQQ3MP wisdom H2451 NFS and instruction H4148 W-NMS .
8 My son H1121 NMS-1MS , hear H8085 VQI2MS the instruction H4148 CMS of thy father H1 NMS , and forsake H5203 VQY2MS not H408 W-NPAR the law H8451 CFS of thy mother H517 CFS-2MS :
9 For H3588 CONJ they H1992 PPRO-3MP shall be an ornament H3880 CFS of grace H2580 NMS unto thy head H7218 L-CMS-2MS , and chains H6060 W-NMP about thy neck H1621 L-CFP-2MS .
10 My son H1121 NMS-1MS , if H518 PART sinners H2400 AMP entice H6601 VPY3MP-2MS thee , consent H14 thou not H408 NPAR .
11 If H518 PART they say H559 VQY3MP , Come H1980 VQI2MS-3FS with H854 PREP-1MP us , let us lay wait H693 VQI1MP for blood H1818 L-NMS , let us lurk privily H6845 VQY1MP for the innocent H5355 L-AMS without cause H2600 ADV :
12 Let us swallow them up H1104 VQI1MP-3MP alive H2416 NMP as the grave H7585 K-NMS ; and whole H8549 W-AMP , as those that go down H3381 K-VQCMP into the pit H953 NMS :
13 We shall find H4672 VNQ3MS all H3605 NMS precious H3368 AMS substance H1952 NMS , we shall fill H4390 VPI2MS our houses H1004 CMP-1MP with spoil H7998 NMS :
14 Cast in H5307 VHY2MS thy lot H1486 CMS-2MS among H8432 B-CMS-1MP us ; let us all H3605 L-CMS-1MP have H1961 VQY3MS one H259 MMS purse H3599 NMS :
15 My son H1121 NMS-1MS , walk H1980 VQY2MS not H408 NPAR thou in the way H1870 B-NMS with H854 PREP-3MP them ; refrain H4513 VQI2MS thy foot H7272 CFS-2MS from their path H5410 M-CFS-3MP :
16 For H3588 CONJ their feet H7272 CFD-3MP run H7323 VQY3MP to evil H7451 LD-AMS , and make haste H4116 W-VPY3MP to shed H8210 L-VQFC blood H1818 NMS .
17 Surely H3588 CONJ in vain H2600 ADV the net H7568 D-NFS is spread H2219 VUPFS in the sight H5869 B-CMP of any H3605 CMS bird H1167 CMS .
18 And they H1992 W-PPRO-3MP lay wait H693 VQY3MP for their own blood H1818 L-CMS-3MP ; they lurk privily H6845 VQY3MP for their own lives H5315 L-CFP-3MP .
19 So H3651 ADV are the ways H734 CFP of every one H3605 NMS that is greedy H1214 NMS of gain H1215 NMS ; which taketh away H3947 VQY3MS the life H5315 GFS of the owners H1167 CMP-3MS thereof .
20 Wisdom H2454 NFP crieth H7442 VQY3FP without H2351 BD-NMS ; she uttereth H5414 VQY2MS her voice H6963 CMS-3FS in the streets H7339 BD-NFP :
21 She crieth H7121 VQI2MS in the chief H7218 B-NMS place of concourse H1993 VQPFP , in the openings H6607 B-CMP of the gates H8179 NMP : in the city H5892 BD-NFS she uttereth H559 VQY3FS her words H561 CMP-3FS , saying ,
22 How long H5704 PREP , ye simple ones H6612 NMP , will ye love H157 VQY2MP simplicity H6612 NMS ? and the scorners H3887 W-VQPMP delight H2530 VQQ3MP in their scorning H3944 NMS , and fools H3684 W-NMP hate H8130 VQY3MP knowledge H1847 NFS ?
23 Turn H7725 VQY2MP you at my reproof H8433 L-CFS-1MS : behold H2009 IJEC , I will pour out H5042 VHI1MS my spirit H7307 CFS-1MS unto you , I will make known H3045 VHI1MS my words H1697 CMP-1MS unto you .
24 Because H3282 ADV I have called H7121 VQQ1CS , and ye refused H3985 W-VPY2MP ; I have stretched out H5186 VQQ1MS my hand H3027 CFS-1MS , and no man H369 W-NPAR regarded H7181 VHPMS ;
25 But ye have set at naught H6544 W-VQY2MP all H3605 CMS my counsel H6098 CFS-1MS , and would H14 VQQ2MP none H3808 NADV of my reproof H8433 W-CFS-1MS :
26 I H589 PPRO-1MS also H1571 CONJ will laugh H7832 VQY1MS at your calamity H343 B-CMS-2MP ; I will mock H3932 VQY1MS when your fear H6343 CMS-2MP cometh H935 B-VQFC ;
27 When your fear H6343 CMS-2MP cometh H935 B-VQFC as desolation H7722 , and your destruction H343 W-CMS-3MP cometh H857 VQY3MS as a whirlwind H5492 K-VQFC ; when distress H6869 NFS and anguish H6695 W-NFS cometh H935 B-VQFC upon H5921 PREP-2MP you .
28 Then H227 ADV shall they call upon H7121 VQY3MP-3FP-1MS me , but I will not H3808 W-NPAR answer H6030 VQY1MS ; they shall seek me early H7836 VPY3MP-3FP-1MS , but they shall not H3808 W-NPAR find H4672 VQY3MP-3FP-1MS me :
29 For that NMS they hated H8130 VQQ3MP knowledge H1847 NFS , and did not H3808 NADV choose H977 VQQ3MP the fear H3374 W-CFS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS :
30 They would H14 VQQ3MP none H3808 NADV of my counsel H6098 L-CFS-1MS : they despised H5006 VQQ3MP all H3605 NMS my reproof H8433 CFS-1MS .
31 Therefore shall they eat H398 W-VQY3MP of the fruit H6529 M-CMS of their own way H1870 CMS-3MP , and be filled H7646 VQY3MP with their own devices H4156 WM-CFP-3MP .
32 For H3588 CONJ the turning away H4878 CFS of the simple H6612 NMP shall slay H2026 VQY3FS-3MP them , and the prosperity H7962 W-CFS of fools H3684 NMP shall destroy H6 VPY3FS-3MP them .
33 But whoso hearkeneth H8085 W-VQPMS unto me shall dwell H7931 VQY3MS safely H983 NMS , and shall be quiet H7599 W-VPQ3MS from fear H6343 M-CMS of evil H7451 AFS .
