Proverbs 7

[6 – 9] For at the window of my house through my lattice i looked down, and i saw among the simple ones i observed among the sons of youth lacking heart; passing through the street beside her corner; and the way to her house he walked, in the twilight, at the evening of day, in the black of night and darkness.

Proverbs 7

My son, keep my words, and my commands treasure  hearts Say to wisdom, my sister you (are); and a kinsman to understanding call; to words smooth, For at the window of my house through my lattice I looked down, and I saw among the simple ones I observed amount the sons of youth lacking heart; passing through street the beside her corner; and the way to her house he walked, in the twilight, at the evening of day, in the black of night and darkness And behold, a women to meet him, (with) dress a harlot’s, and a guarded heart; loud she (is) and stubborn; in her own house not do dwell her feet; now (is she) outside, now in the streets, and at every corner she lies in wait. and she seizes him and disses him; she hardens her face and says to him, sacrifices of peace offering are on me, today I have repaid my vows; therefore I came out to meet you, to seek early your face and I have found you (with) coverings I have spread my couch, stripped clothes of linen of Egypt; I have sprinkled my bed (with) myrh, aloes and cinnamon. Come, let us drink our fill of love until the morning; let us delight ourselves with caresses. For is not (my) husband in his house; he is going in the way far off; a bag of silver he has taken in his hand at the day of the full moon he will enter his house she turned him aside by the sum of her word, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. (He is) going after her at once, as an ox to the slaughter goes; as one chained to chastisement of a fool; until strikes through a dart his liver. Like hastening a bird’s to the snare, and not knowing that for his soul it (is). And now, sons, listen to me, and incline to the words of m mouth; not do turn aside to her ways your heart, not do go astray in her paths. For many (are) the wounded she has made fall; and numerous all her slain ones. The ways of Sheol (are) her house, going down to the rooms of death.

Proverbs 6

[20 – 22] Keep, my son, commands your fathers; and not do forsake the law of you mother. Tie them on your heart continually, bind them on your neck. When you go, it shall lead you, when you lie down, it shall watch over you; and when you awaken, it shall talk with you.

Proverbs 6

My son, if you are surety for your friends; (if) you struck with an alien your palms; you are snared with the words of your mouth, you are captured with the words of your mouth; to this then, my son, and save yourself when you come into the palm of your friend go, humble yourself and be bold (to) your friend. Not do give sleep to your eyes or slumber to your eyelids. Deliver yourself as a gazelle from a hand; and as a bird from hand the fowler’s. Go to the ant, lazy man; see her ways and be wise; of whom not is to her a leader, overseer or ruler, provides in the summer her bread, gathers in the harvest her food. Until when, O lazy man, will you lie down? When you will arise out of your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest; so shall come as one stalking your poverty, and your want as a man of a shield. A man worthless a man of evil, walk (with) a crocked mouth, winking with his eyes. scraping with his feet; pointing with his fingers; perverse things (are) in his heart, he is plotting evil at every time; strife he sends out. Therefore suddenly shall come his calamity, quickly he is broken, and is not healing. Six (things) these hates Jehovah, and seven are hateful to His soul. eyes high, a tongue lying and hands shedding blood innocent, a heart that plots plans evil; feet hurrying to run to evil. He breathes lies, a witness lying, and one sending out strife between brothers. Keep, my son, commands your father’s; and not do forsake the law of your mother. Tie them on your heart continually, bind them on your neck. When you go, it shall lead you; when you lie down. It shall watch over you; and (when) you awaken, it shall talk (with) you. For (is) a lamp the command and the law a light; and the way of life (is) reproofs of instruction; to keep you from the women evil from the smooth tongue of the strange women Not do lust after her beauty in your heart; and not do let her take you with her eyelids. For on behalf of a woman a harlot to the loaf (last) of bread; and wife (another) man’s the soul precious hunts for can take a man fire into his bosom and his clothes not be burned? Or can walk a man onhot coals and his feet not be burned? So (is) one going in to wife his neighbor’s; not shall be innocent everyone touching her. Do not they despise a thief, when he steals to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; but (if) he is found he shall restore sevenfold. all the goods of his house he shall give one doing adultery (with) a woman lacks heart; a destroyer of his own soul he (is) (who) does it. A wound and dishonor he shall find; and his reproach not shall be wiped away. For jealousy (is) the rage of a man; and not he will spare in the day of vengeance. Not he will lift the face of every ransom; and not he will consent when you multiply the bribes.

Proverbs 5

[5:1] My son, to my wisdom listen; to my understanding bow your ear; to keep discretion, and knowledge your lip may guard

[5:3] For honey drip the lips of a strange woman, and smoother than oil is her palate.

Proverbs 5

My son, to my wisdom listen; to my understanding bow your ear; to keep discretion, and knowledge your lips may guard. For honey drip the lips of a strange women, and smoother than oil (is) her palate. But she afterwards (is as) bitter as wormwood, sharp as a sword of edges. Her feet go down (to) death; Sheol her steps take hold on. The path of life lest you ponder, are moveable her tracks not you can know (it). And now, O sons, hear me; and do not depart from the words of my mouth. Remove far from her your ways; and not do come near to the door of her house, lest you give to others your vigor, and your years to the cruel one; lest be filled strangers (with) your strength; and your toil in house an alien’s and you moan when your end (comes) when are consumed your flesh and muscle. And you say, How I have hated instruction! And correction despised my heart! and not I have obeyed the voice of my teachers and to those teaching me not turned my ear. As a little I was in all evil, in the midst of the assembly and congregation. Drink waters from your own cistern and flowing waters from the midst of your own well. Should be dispersed your springs outside in the streets (like) rivers of water? Let them be for you, you alone, and not for strangers with you. Let be your fountain blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth. (she is) a deer loving, and a doe graceful her breast let satisfy you at time every, in her love be ravished always. And why will you be ravished, my son by an alien women, and hug bosom a foreigner’s. For (are) before the eyes of Jehovah the ways of a man, and all his tracks He is pondering. His own iniquities will capture him, the wicked; and with the cords of his sin he shall be seized He shall die in absence of instruction and in greatness his folly’s he goes astray.

Proverbs 4

[4:20] My son, to my words listen; to what i say bow your ear; not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the center of your heart… With all diligence keep your heart for out of it (are) the issues of life.

Proverbs 4

Proverbs 4

Hear, sons, teaching a fathers and listen to know understanding. For teaching good I give to you my law, not do forsake. For son I was to my father tender and only (son) before my mother. And he taught me and said to me, may cling my words to your heart; keep my commands and live. Get wisdom, get understanding; and not do forget, and not stretch away from the words of my mouth. Not do forsake her and she will keep you; love her and she will guard you. The first thing (is) wisdom; get wisdom, and with all your getting, get understanding. Exalt her, and she will lift you up; she will honor you when you embrace her. She shall give to your head a wreath of grace; a crown of glory she shall shield you with. 

Hear, my son, and receive my saying; and shall be many to you the years of life. In the way of wisdom I have taught you; I have made you walk in the tracks of uprightness. When you go not shall be narrowed your steps, and if you run not you shall stumble. Take hold on instruction; not do let go; keep her for she (is) your life. On the path of the wicked not do enter, and not do advance in the way of evil ones. Ignore it; not do pass into it; turn aside from upon it and pass on. For not do they sleep if not they have done evil; and is taken away their sleep if not they cause to stumble. For they eat the bread of wickedness, and wine of violence they drink. But the path of the righteous (is) as bright a light going and shining till is established the day. The way of the wicked (is) as darkness; not they do know at what they stumble. My son, to my words listen; to what I say bow your ear; not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the center of your heart; For life they (are) to those who find them and to all his flesh healing. With all diligence keep your heart for out of it (are) the issues of life. Turn away from you the crooked mouth, and devious lips put far from you. Your eyes to the front let look; and yours eyelids let look straight before you. Ponder the track of your feet, and all your ways will be set. Not do turn right or left; turn aside your foot from evil.

Proverbs 3

[3:1 – 8] My son, my teaching not do forget; but my commands let guard your heart; for length of days and years of life and peace they shall add to you. Mercy and truth not will forsake you; tie them on your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart… Trust to Jehovah with all your heart; and to your own understanding not do lean. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.

Proverbs 3

Proverbs 3

My son, my teaching not do forget; but my command let guard your heart; for length of days and years of life and peace they shall add to you. Mercy and truth not will forsake you; tie them on your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart; and find favor and wisdom good in the eyes of God and man. Trust to Jehovah with all your heart; and to your (own) understanding not do lean, in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths Not do be wise in your own eyes; fear Jehovah and depart from evil. 

Healing shall be to your navel and moisture to your bones. Honor Jehovah from your substance and from the first fruits of all your produce; and shall be filled your barns (with) plenty; and (with) new wine your wine vats shall burst. 

The chastening of Jehovah, my son, not do despise; and not do loathe His correction; for whom loves Jehovah He corrects, even as a father the son he is pleased with Blessed (is) the man finding wisdom, and the man getting understanding For is better its gain than the gain of silver; and more than gold its produce. 

(More) precious she than jewels; and all your delights not are likened with her Length of days (is) in her right (hand) in her left (hand) riches and honor. Her ways (are) ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. A tree of life she (is) for those taking hold on her; and those holding her (are) blessed. 

Jehovah by wisdom founded the earth; He fixed the heavens by understanding. By His knowledge the depths were broken up; and the clouds dropped down dew. My son, let not them depart from your eyes; keep sound wisdom and discretion; and they shall be life to your soul, and grace to your neck. Then you shall walk with safety (in) your way; and your foot not shall stumble. When you rest, not you shall dread and you shall lie and shall be sweet your sleep. Not do be afraid from dread sudden, and of the ruin of the wicked, for it is coming. For Jehovah shall be at your loins, and He shall keep your foot from capture. 

Not do withhold good from its owners. When it is in the power of your hand to do (it). Not do plot against your neighbor evil and he dwells securely with you. Not do strive with a man without cause, if not he has dealt you evil. Not do envy against a man of violence, and not do choose among all his ways. For hateful to Jehovah (is) the devious but with the upright (is) His intimacy. The curse of Jehovah (is) on house the wicked; but the abode of the righteous He blesses. If at the scorners He scorns, yet to the lowly He gives grace. 

Honor the wise inherit, but the foolish (are) exalting shame.

Proverbs 2

[2:10 – 12] When enters wisdom into your heart; and knowledge to your soul is pleasing; discretion shall keep you; understanding shall watch over you to deliver you from the way evil; from the man speaking perverse things.

Proverbs 2

Proverbs 2

My son, if you will receive my words, and my commands hide with you, so that you bow to wisdom your ear. you shall extend your ear to understanding; for, understanding you cry, for understanding lifting up your voice; if you seek her as silver, and as hidden treasures you search for her; then you shall know the fear of Jehovah, and the knowledge of God find. 

For Jehovah gives wisdom, from His mouth (are) knowledge and understanding. And He lays up for the upright sound wisdom; (He is) a shield, for those walking in integrity, to guard the paths of judgement; and the way of His saints He guards. 

Then you shall understand righteousness and judgement and honesty, every path good. When enters wisdom into your heart; and knowledge to your soul is pleasing; discretion shall keep you; understanding shall watch over you to deliver you from the way evil; from the man speaking perverse things, the one leaving the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness; rejoicing to do evil; they delight in the perversities of the evil; whose paths (are) crooked, and (are) devious in their tracks 

(These) will deliver you from the woman strange, from the foreigner (by) her words flattering; who forsakes the guide of her youth, and the covenant of her God forgets. 

For leads down to death her house, and to the dead her tracks. All going in to her not return; and not they reach the paths of life. In order that you may walk in the paths of the good, and the paths of the righteous may keep. For the upright shall dwell (in) the land; and the blameless shall remain in it. But the wicked from the earth shall be cut off; and the treacherous shall be rooted up from it.

Proverbs 1

Wisdom is a she

[1:20] wisdom in the street cries aloud; in the square she give her voice

[20] wisdom cries aloud in the plaza; she gives her voice in the square

Proverbs 1

Proverbs 1

The Proverbs of Solomon, son of David , king of Israel; to know wisdom and instruction to understand the words of understanding; to receive instruction in prudence rightness and judgement and uprightness; to give to the simple prudence; to the young man knowledge and discretion. 

Hears the wise and increases learning, and the understanding wise counsel will get to understand a proverb and an enigma and the words of the wise and their riddles. The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge; wisdom and instructions fools despise.

Hear, my son, instructions your fathers; and not do forsake teachings your mothers, for an ornament of grace they are to your head, and necklaces for your neck. 

My son, if lure you sinners; not do be willing. If they say, walk with us, let us lie in wait for blood; let us lurk for the innocent without cause; let us swallow them as Sheol alive; and whole, as those going into the pit. All wealth precious we shall find; we shall fill our houses with spoil. your lot let fall with us; purse one shall be for all of us. 

My son, not do walk in the way with them! Hold back your foot from their path; for their feet to evil run, and they hasten to shed blood. For in vain is spread the net in the eyes of every lord of the wing. And they for their own blood lie in wait; they lurk secretly for their own souls. So are the ways of everyone who gets unjust gain; the soul of his owner takes. 

Wisdom in the street cries aloud; in the square she gives her voice. At the head of the common places she calls; at the opening of the gates; in the city her words she speaks: Until when, simple ones, you will love simplicity? And scorners scorn will desire for them? And fools will hate knowledge? 

Turn back at my warning; behold, I will pour out to you my spirit; I will make known my words to you. Because I have called, and you refused I extend a hand yet none inclines. And you ignored all my advice, and my warning not you wanted. Also I in your calamity will laugh; I will mock when comes your dread; when comes like a storm your dread; and your calamity like a tempest arrives; when comes upon you distress and constraint. Then they shall call on me and not I will answer; they shall seek me early but not shall find me. That they hated knowledge, and fear of Jehovah not chose. Not they want my counsel, they despised all my reproof; and they shall eat of the fruit of their own way, and with their own devices be filled. For the going astray of the simple slay them; and the ease of fools destroys them. 

But one listening to me shall dwell securely, and shall be at ease from the fear of evil.
