Young's Literal Translation: Proverbs Page 12

10:16 The wage of the righteous [is] for life, The increase of the wicked for sin.

10:17 A traveller to life [is] he who is keeping instruction, And whoso is forsaking rebuke is erring.

10:18 Whoso is covering hatred with lying lips, And whoso is bringing out an evil report is a fool.

10:19 In the abundance of words transgression ceaseth not, And whoso is restraining his lips [is] wise.

10:20 The tongue of the righteous [is] chosen silver, The heart of the wicked -- as a little thing.

10:21 The lips of the righteous delight many, And fools for lack of heart die.

10:22 The blessing of Jehovah -- it maketh rich, And He addeth no grief with it.

10:23 To execute inventions [is] as play to a fool, And wisdom to a man of understanding.

10:24 The feared thing of the wicked it meeteth him, And the desire of the righteous is given.

10:25 As the passing by of a hurricane, So the wicked is not, And the righteous is a foundation age-during.

10:26 As vinegar to the teeth, And as smoke to the eyes, So [is] the slothful to those sending him.

10:27 The fear of Jehovah addeth days, And the years of the wicked are shortened.

10:28 The hope of the righteous [is] joyful, And the expectation of the wicked perisheth.

10:29 The way of Jehovah [is] strength to the perfect, And ruin to workers of iniquity.

10:30 The righteous to the age is not moved, And the wicked inhabit not the earth.

10:31 The mouth of the righteous uttereth wisdom, And the tongue of frowardness is cut out.

10:32 The lips of the righteous know a pleasing thing, And the mouth of the wicked perverseness!

11:1 Balances of deceit [are] an abomination to Jehovah, And a perfect weight [is] His delight.

11:2 Pride hath come, and shame cometh, And with the lowly [is] wisdom.

11:3 The integrity of the upright leadeth them, And the perverseness of the treacherous destroyeth them.

11:4 Wealth profiteth not in a day of wrath, And righteousness delivereth from death.

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
