|
|||
|
|
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
|
|||
|
|
1. The proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:
|
|||
|
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
|
2. To know wisdom and instruction, to understand words of insight,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
|
3. to receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness, justice, and equity;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
|
4. to give prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth—
|
|||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
|
5. Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|
|
6. to understand a proverb and a saying, the words of the wise and their riddles.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
|||
|
|
7. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
|
8. Hear, my son, your father’s instruction, and forsake not your mother’s teaching,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
|
9. for they are a graceful garland for your head and pendants for your neck.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
|
10. My son, if sinners entice you, do not consent.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
|
11. If they say, “Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood; let us ambush the innocent without reason;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
|
12. like Sheol let us swallow them alive, and whole, like those who go down to the pit;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
|||
|
|
13. we shall find all precious goods, we shall fill our houses with plunder;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
|||
|
|
14. throw in your lot among us; we will all have one purse”—
|
|||
|
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
|||
|
|
15. my son, do not walk in the way with them; hold back your foot from their paths,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
|||
|
|
16. for their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
|||
|
|
17. For in vain is a net spread in the sight of any bird,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
|
18. but these men lie in wait for their own blood; they set an ambush for their own lives.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
|||
|
|
19. Such are the ways of everyone who is greedy for unjust gain; it takes away the life of its possessors.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
|
|||
|
|
20. Wisdom cries aloud in the street, in the markets she raises her voice;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="21" name="21"></a>
|
|||
|
|
21. at the head of the noisy streets she cries out; at the entrance of the city gates she speaks:
|
|||
|
|
<a id="22" name="22"></a>
|
|||
|
|
22. “How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple? How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing and fools hate knowledge?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="23" name="23"></a>
|
|||
|
|
23. If you turn at my reproof, behold, I will pour out my spirit to you; I will make my words known to you.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="24" name="24"></a>
|
|||
|
|
24. Because I have called and you refused to listen, have stretched out my hand and no one has heeded,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="25" name="25"></a>
|
|||
|
|
25. because you have ignored all my counsel and would have none of my reproof,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="26" name="26"></a>
|
|||
|
|
26. I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when terror strikes you,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="27" name="27"></a>
|
|||
|
|
27. when terror strikes you like a storm and your calamity comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="28" name="28"></a>
|
|||
|
|
28. Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently but will not find me.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="29" name="29"></a>
|
|||
|
|
29. Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="30" name="30"></a>
|
|||
|
|
30. would have none of my counsel and despised all my reproof,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="31" name="31"></a>
|
|||
|
|
31. therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way, and have their fill of their own devices.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="32" name="32"></a>
|
|||
|
|
32. For the simple are killed by their turning away, and the complacency of fools destroys them;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="33" name="33"></a>
|
|||
|
|
33. but whoever listens to me will dwell secure and will be at ease, without dread of disaster.”
