Young's Literal Translation: Proverbs Page 13

11:5 The righteousness of the perfect maketh right his way, And by his wickedness doth the wicked fall.

11:6 The righteousness of the upright delivereth them, And in mischief the treacherous are captured.

11:7 In the death of a wicked man, hope perisheth, And the expectation of the iniquitous hath been lost.

11:8 The righteous from distress is drawn out, And the wicked goeth in instead of him.

11:9 With the mouth a hypocrite corrupteth his friend, And by knowledge the righteous are drawn out.

11:10 In the good of the righteous a city exulteth, And in the destruction of the wicked [is] singing.

11:11 By the blessing of the upright is a city exalted, And by the mouth of the wicked thrown down.

11:12 Whoso is despising his neighbour lacketh heart, And a man of understanding keepeth silence.

11:13 A busybody is revealing secret counsel, And the faithful of spirit is covering the matter.

11:14 Without counsels do a people fall, And deliverance [is] in a multitude of counsellors.

11:15 Evil [one] suffereth when he hath been surety [for] a stranger, And whoso is hating suretyship is confident.

11:16 A gracious woman retaineth honour, And terrible [men] retain riches.

11:17 A kind man is rewarding his own soul, And the fierce is troubling his own flesh.

11:18 The wicked is getting a lying wage, And whoso is sowing righteousness -- a true reward.

11:19 Rightly [is] righteousness for life, And whoso is pursuing evil -- for his own death.

11:20 An abomination to Jehovah [are] the perverse of heart, And the perfect of the way [are] His delight.

11:21 Hand to hand, the wicked is not acquitted, And the seed of the righteous hath escaped.

11:22 A ring of gold in the nose of a sow -- A fair woman and stubborn of behaviour.

11:23 The desire of the righteous [is] only good, The hope of the wicked [is] transgression.

11:24 There is who is scattering, and yet is increased, And who is keeping back from uprightness, only to want.

29:6 In the transgression of the evil [is] a snare , And the righteous doth sing and rejoice. 29:7 The righteous knoweth the plea of the poor , The wicked understandeth not knowledge. 29:8 Men of scorning ensnare a city , And the wise turn back anger. 29:9 A wise man is judged by the foolish man, And he hath been angry , And he hath laughed, and there is no rest. 29:10 Men of blood hate the perfect , And the upright seek his soul. 29:11 A fool bringeth out all his mind , And the wise till afterwards restraineth it. 29:12 A ruler who is attending to lying words , All his ministers [are] wicked. 29:13 The poor and the man of frauds have met together , Jehovah is enlightening the eyes of them both. 29:14 a king that is judging truly the poor , His throne for ever is established. 29:15 A rod and reproof give wisdom , And a youth let away is shaming his mother. 29:16 In the multiplying of the wicked transgression multiplieth,

30:24 Four [are] little ones of earth , And they are made wiser than the wise: 30:25 The ants [are] a people not strong , And they prepare in summer their food, 30:26 Conies [are] a people not strong , And they place in a rock their house, 30:27 A king there is not to the locust , And it goeth out -- each one shouting, 30:28 A spider with two hands taketh hold, And is in the palaces of a king. 30:29 Three there are going well , Yea, four are good in going: 30:30 An old lion -- mighty among beasts , That turneth not back from the face of any, 30:31 A girt one of the loins , or a he-goat, And a king -- no rising up with him. 30:32 If thou hast been foolish in lifting up thyself, And if thou hast devised evil -- hand to mouth! 30:33 For the churning of milk bringeth out butter , And the wringing of the nose bringeth out blood , And the forcing of anger bringeth out strife! 31:1 Words of Lemuel a king , a declaration that his mother

25:9 Thy cause plead with thy neighbour, And the secret counsel of another reveal not, 25:10 Lest the hearer put thee to shame , And thine evil report turn not back. 25:11 Apples of gold in imagery of silver , [Is] the word spoken at its fit times. 25:12 A ring of gold , and an ornament of pure gold, [Is] the wise reprover to an attentive ear. 25:13 As a vessel of snow in a day of harvest , [So is] a faithful ambassador to those sending him, And the soul of his masters he refresheth. 25:14 Clouds and wind , and rain there is none, [Is] a man boasting himself in a false gift. 25:15 By long-suffering is a ruler persuaded , And a soft tongue breaketh a bone. 25:16 Honey thou hast found -- eat thy sufficiency, Lest thou be satiated [with] it, and hast vomited it. 25:17 Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house , Lest he be satiated [with] thee, and have hated thee. 25:18 A maul, and a sword , and a sharp arrow , [Is] the man
