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.
