Young's Literal Translation: Proverbs Page 23

18:11 The wealth of the rich [is] the city of his strength, And as a wall set on high in his own imagination.

18:12 Before destruction the heart of man is high, And before honour [is] humility.

18:13 Whoso is answering a matter before he heareth, Folly it is to him and shame.

18:14 The spirit of a man sustaineth his sickness, And a smitten spirit who doth bear?

18:15 The heart of the intelligent getteth knowledge, And the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

18:16 The gift of a man maketh room for him, And before the great it leadeth him.

18:17 Righteous [is] the first in his own cause, His neighbour cometh and hath searched him.

18:18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, And between the mighty it separateth.

18:19 A brother transgressed against is as a strong city, And contentions as the bar of a palace.

18:20 From the fruit of a man's mouth is his belly satisfied, [From the] increase of his lips he is satisfied.

18:21 Death and life [are] in the power of the tongue, And those loving it eat its fruit.

18:22 [Whoso] hath found a wife hath found good, And bringeth out good-will from Jehovah.

18:23 [With] supplications doth the poor speak, And the rich answereth fierce things.

18:24 A man with friends [is] to show himself friendly, And there is a lover adhering more than a brother!

19:1 Better [is] the poor walking in his integrity, Than the perverse [in] his lips, who [is] a fool.

19:2 Also, without knowledge the soul [is] not good, And the hasty in feet is sinning.

19:3 The folly of man perverteth his way, And against Jehovah is his heart wroth.

19:4 Wealth addeth many friends, And the poor from his neighbour is separated.

19:5 A false witness is not acquitted, Whoso breatheth out lies is not delivered.

19:6 Many entreat the face of the noble, And all have made friendship to a man of gifts.

19:7 All the brethren of the poor have hated him, Surely also his friends have been far from him, He is pursuing words -- they are not!

19:8 Whoso is getting heart is loving his soul, He is keeping understanding to find good.

19:9 A false witness is not acquitted, And whoso breatheth out lies perisheth.

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
