2Whoso is walking in his uprightness is fearing Jehovah, And the perverted in his ways is despising Him.
3In the mouth of a fool is a rod of pride, And the lips of the wise preserve them.
4Without oxen a stall is clean, And great is the increase by the power of the ox.
5A faithful witness lieth not, And a false witness breatheth out lies.
6A scorner hath sought wisdom, and it is not, And knowledge to the intelligent is easy.
7Go from before a foolish man, Or thou hast not known the lips of knowledge.
8The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way, And the folly of fools is deceit.
9Fools mock at a guilt-offering, And among the upright — a pleasing thing.
10The heart knoweth its own bitterness, And with its joy a stranger doth not intermeddle.
11The house of the wicked is destroyed, And the tent of the upright flourisheth.
12There is a way — right before a man, And its latter end are ways of death.
13Even in laughter is the heart pained, And the latter end of joy is affliction.
14From his ways is the backslider in heart filled, And a good man — from his fruits.
15The simple giveth credence to everything, And the prudent attendeth to his step.
16The wise is fearing and turning from evil, And a fool is transgressing and is confident.
17Whoso is short of temper doth folly, And a man of wicked devices is hated.
18The simple have inherited folly, And the prudent are crowned with knowledge.
19The evil have bowed down before the good, And the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
