5Counsel in the heart of a man is deep water, And a man of understanding draweth it up.
6A multitude of men proclaim each his kindness, And a man of stedfastness who doth find?
7The righteous is walking habitually in his integrity, O the happiness of his sons after him!
8A king sitting on a throne of judgment, Is scattering with his eyes all evil,
9Who saith, 'I have purified my heart, I have been cleansed from my sin?'
10A stone and a stone, an ephah and an ephah, Even both of them are an abomination to Jehovah.
11Even by his actions a youth maketh himself known, Whether his work be pure or upright.
12A hearing ear, and a seeing eye, Jehovah hath made even both of them.
13Love not sleep, lest thou become poor, Open thine eyes — be satisfied with bread.
14'Bad, bad,' saith the buyer, And going his way then he boasteth himself.
15Substance, gold, and a multitude of rubies, Yea, a precious vessel, are lips of knowledge.
