Proverbs 27

Not do boast in the day of tomorrow, for not you do know what may bring forth a day. Let praise you an alien, and not your mouth; one foreign, and not your own lips. (is) heavy A stone and a burden sand; but vexation a fool’s (is) heavier than both of them. Fierce (is) Fury and is overflowing anger; but who can stand before jealousy? Better (is) reproof revealed than love concealed. Faithful (are) wounds a lover’s but (are) plentiful the kisses of a hated one. soul A sated tramples a honeycomb; but (to) a soul hungry, every bitter thing (is) sweet. Like a bird wandering from its nest, so (is) a man wandering from his place. Oil and perfume give joy to the heart; and (is) sweet one’s friend from the counsel of the soul. Your friend, nor friend your father’s not do forsake; and house your brother’s not do go into in the day of your calamity; (for is) better, a neighbor near than a brother far away. Be wise, my son, and give joy to my heart; so that I may return my reproaches a word. a sensible one sees the evil and hides himself; the simple pass on (and) are punished. Take his garment when he is surety for a stranger; and for a strange woman bind him in pledge. He who blesses his friend with a voice loud in the morning rising early, cursing it will be deemed as to him. dripping A constant on a day of steady rain; and a women of strivings are alike, he who hides her hides the wind; and oil his right hand meets. Iron on iron sharpens and a man sharpens face his friends. The keeper of a fig tree eats its fruit; and he who keeps his master is honored. As (in) the water face (reflects) face, so the heart of a man (reflects) the man. Sheol and destruction not are satisfied; and the eyes of a man not are satisfied. The refining pot for silver and the furnace for gold; but a man by the mouth of his praise. through you pound a fool in the mortar amidst the grain with a pestle, not will turn from him his folly. Well know face your flock’s set your heart on your herbs, for (are) not forever rich; nor the crown to generation (and) generation. One moves the grass, and is seen the new grass, and are gathered the plants of the mountains the lambs (will be) for your clothing; and a price of a field the he-goats; and enough goats’ milk for your food. for the food of your household, and for the lives of your maidens.
