Proverbs 9:11-12 in English

¹¹ For by me thy days shall be multiplied, And the years of thy life shall be increased.

¹² If thou art wise, thou art wise for thyself; And if thou scoffest, thou alone shalt bear it.

¹¹ For in this way thou shalt live long, and years of thy life shall be added to thee.

¹² Son, if thou be wise for thyself, thou shalt also be wise for thy neighbours; and if thou shouldest prove wicked, thou alone wilt bear the evil.

^12a He that stays himself upon falsehoods, attempts to rule the winds, and the same will pursue birds in their flight:

^12b for he has forsaken the ways of his own vineyard, and he has caused the axles of his own husbandry to go astray;

^12c and he goes through a dry desert, and a land appointed to drought, and he gathers barrenness with his hands.

¹¹ For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
