ProverbsChapter 20 |
|
1 WINE is grievous, drunkenness is shameful; and whosoever drinks excessively is not wise. |
|
2 The anger of the king is as the roaring of a lion; he who provokes him to anger sins against his own life. |
|
3 It is an honor for a man to cease from strife; but every fool will delight in it. |
|
4 The lazy man is reproached and he will not cease from talking; therefore he shall beg during harvest but will not receive even water. |
|
5 The counsel in a king's heart is deep; but a wise man will draw it out. |
|
6 Many men are considered merciful; but a faithful man who can find? |
|
7 The just man walks in his integrity; blessed are his children after him. |
|
8 A king who sits on the throne of judgment scatters away all evil things from before him. |
|
9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sins? |
|
10 Diverse weights and diverse measures, both alike, are an abomination in the presence of the LORD. |
|
11 Even a child is known by his doings, whether his works are pure and whether they are right. |
|
12 The hearing ear and the seeing eye, the LORD has made even both of them. |
|
13 Love not sleep test you come to poverty; open your eyes and you shall be satisfied with bread. |
|
14 A friend says to his friend, I have made a gain; then he boasts. |
|
15 Again he says, Here is gold and a multitude of precious stones and precious vessels; but the lips of knowledge are precious jewels. |
|
16 Take the garment of him who is surety for a stranger; and take his pledge for the sake of a stranger. |
|
17 He who becomes surety for a man by means of deceitful gain will afterwards have his mouth filled with gravel. |
|
18 A good purpose is established by counsel; but by provocation war is made. |
|
19 He who reveals a secret causes slander; therefore do not meddle with him who is hasty with his lips. |
|
20 He who curses his father or his mother, his lamp shall be extinguished. |
|
21 An inheritance hastily acquired in the beginning, shall not be blessed in the end. |
|
22 Do not say, I will recompense evil; but wait for the LORD that he may save you. |
|
23 Diverse weights are an abomination in the presence of the LORD; and false scales are not good. |
|
24 A man's steps are directed by the LORD; who is the man, then, who can direct his own way? |
|
25 It is a snare for a man who vows to give something to a holy place, and regrets after he has vowed. |
|
26 A wise king scatters the wicked and crushes them under the wheel. |
|
27 The soul of a man is the lamp of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the heart. |
|
28 Mercy and truth preserve a king; and his throne is established by grace. |
|
29 The glory of young men is their strength; and the beauty of old men is their grey hair. |
|
30 Misery and torment befall the evil men; and wounds smite the inner parts of their body. |
