9:11 For by me do thy days multiply, And added to thee are years of life.

9:12 If thou hast been wise, thou hast been wise for thyself, And thou hast scorned -- thyself bearest [it].

9:13 A foolish woman [is] noisy, Simple, and hath not known what.

9:14 And she hath sat at the opening of her house, On a throne -- the high places of the city,

9:15 To call to those passing by the way, Who are going straight [on] their paths.

9:16 `Who [is] simple? let him turn aside hither.' And whoso lacketh heart -- she said to him,

9:17 `Stolen waters are sweet, And hidden bread is pleasant.'

9:18 And he hath not known that Rephaim [are] there, In deep places of Sheol her invited ones!

10:1 Proverbs of Solomon. A wise son causeth a father to rejoice, And a foolish son [is] an affliction to his mother.

10:2 Treasures of wickedness profit not, And righteousness delivereth from death.

10:3 Jehovah causeth not the soul of the righteous to hunger, And the desire of the wicked He thrusteth away.

10:4 Poor [is] he who is working -- a slothful hand, And the hand of the diligent maketh rich.

10:5 Whoso is gathering in summer [is] a wise son, Whoso is sleeping in harvest [is] a son causing shame.

10:6 Blessings [are] for the head of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked cover doth violence.

10:7 The remembrance of the righteous [is] for a blessing, And the name of the wicked doth rot.

10:8 The wise in heart accepteth commands, And a talkative fool kicketh.

10:9 Whoso is walking in integrity walketh confidently, And whoso is perverting his ways is known.

10:10 Whoso is winking the eye giveth grief, And a talkative fool kicketh.

10:11 A fountain of life [is] the mouth of the righteous, And the mouth of the wicked cover doth violence.

10:12 Hatred awaketh contentions, And over all transgressions love covereth.

10:13 In the lips of the intelligent is wisdom found, And a rod [is] for the back of him who is lacking understanding.

10:14 The wise lay up knowledge, and the mouth of a fool [is] near ruin.

10:15 The wealth of the rich [is] his strong city, The ruin of the poor [is] their poverty.

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
