Proverbs 24

[3] Though Wisdom is built a house; and with understanding it is established; and by knowledge the rooms will be filled with all riches precious and pleasant.

[3] Though Wisdom is built Her house; and with understanding it is made a home; and by knowledge the rooms will be filled with all riches precious and pleasant.

First comes wisdom, then understanding followed by knowledge.

not Do envy men of evil, and not do desire to be with them. For violence meditates their heart; and mischief their lips speak. Through wisdom is built a house; and with understanding it is established; and by knowledge the rooms will be filled with all riches precious and pleasant. a wise warrior (is) in strength; and a man of knowledge firms up might. For with wise advice you shall make for yourself war; and deliverance (is) by the great counselor. (is) too high for a fool Wisdom; in the gate not he does open his mouth. He who devises to do evil, to a him a lord of evil plots shall be called. the plot of foolishness (is) sin; and (is) hateful to men the scorner. (if) you faint in the day of distress (is) marrow your might. Deliver those being taken to death, and those stumbling for killing; unless you hold back. for you say, behold, not we did know this, does not He who weighs the hearts consider it? And the keeper of your soul, (does) he know? And He repays to a man according to his work? Eat, my son, honey for (it is) good; and the comb is sweet on your palate; so (shall) knowledge of wisdom (be) to your soul; when you have found that there is a hereafter and your hope not is cut off. not do lie in ambush, o wicked, at the abode the righteous; not do violate his resting place; for seven (times) falls a just one and rises again; but the wicked shall stumble into evil. When falls your enemy not do rejoice; and when he stumbles not do let be glad your heart; lest see Jehovah and (it) (be) evil in His eyes, and He turn away from him His anger not Do grow (in anger) because of evil doers, (and) do not envy the wicked; for not there shall be a here after to the evil; the lamp of the wicked shall be put out. Fear Jehovah, my son, and the King; with those who change not do associate. For suddenly shall rise their woe; and the ruin of both of them who knows? Also these (are) for the wise; to respect faces in judgement not (is) good. He who says to the wicked righteous you (are) shall curse him the people; shall abhor him the nations. But to those who rebuke it is pleasant; and on them comes a blessing good. the lips He shall kiss that return words straight. Prepare outside your work; and make it ready in the field, for you; afterwards, even build your house. not do be a witness causelessly against a neighbor, or deceive with your lips; not do say, As he has done to me, so I will do to him; I will repay to (each) Man according to his work. over the field of the man lazy I passed, and by the vineyard of the man heartless; and lo, it was grown up, all of it with thistles; had covered its surface nettles; and wall its stone was broken down. And I beheld; I set my heart; I looked I received instruction; A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to lie down; then comes walking about your poverty; and your want like a man (with) a shield.

Proverbs 23

[4] Not do labor to be rich; for your understanding cease.

[31 – 33] Not do look at the wine when it is red; when it gives in the cup its eye; when it goes down smoothly – at its last like a snake it bites; and like a viper it stings. Your eyes shall look on strange women; and your heart shall speak perverse things.

When you site down to eat with a ruler carefully consider what (is) before you: and put a knife to your throat,. if a possessor of a soul you (are). not Do desire his delicacies. for it (is) bread of lies not Do labor to be rich; for your understanding cease. Will fly your eyes on it, and (it) is not? For surely it will make for itself? wings like an eagle and will fly into the heavens. not Do eat the bread of an evil eye; and not do desire his delicacies; for as he reckons in his soul, so (is) he? eat and drink, he says to you; but his heart not (is) with you. Your bit you have eaten, you shall vomit up; and spoil our words pleasant. In the ears of a fool not do speak. for he will despise the prudence of your words. not do move the landmark old and into the fields of the fatherless not do enter; for their Redeemer is mighty; He shall plead their cause with you. Bring in for instruction your heart, and your ears to the words of knowledge. not Do withhold from a boy correction; for (if) you strike him with the rod not he will die. You with the rod shall beat him and his soul from Sheol you shall deliver. My son, if is wise your heart, shall rejoice my heart, even I. And shall exult my reins when speak our lips right things. not Do let envy your heart against sinners; but only (be) in the fear of Jehovah all the day. For surely there is a here after and your hope not shall be cut off. Hear you, my son, and be wise; and advances in the way your heart. not Do be with heavy drinkers of wine; with gluttons flesh to themselves For the drunkard and the glutton lose all; and (with) rags shall clothe (one) sleepiness. Listen to your father: this one begot you; and not do despise when she is old your mother. the truth obtain and not do sell (it); (also) wisdom, and instruction and understanding. greatly shall rejoice The father of the righteous; and the father of a wise one shall even be glad in him. Let be glad your father and your mother; and let rejoice she who bare you. Give, my son, your heart to me; and your eyes my ways let watch. For a pit deep (is) a harlot, and a well narrow a strange woman; surely she as for prey lies in wait; and the treacherous among men she increases. To who (is) woe? To whom (is) sorrow? To whom contentions; To whom babbling? To whom (are) wounds without cause? To whom dullness of eyes? Whose who stay long over the wine; those who go in to seek mixed wine. not Do look at the wine when it is red; when it gives in the cup its eye; when it goes (down) smoothly at its last like a snake it bites; and like  viper it stings your eyes shall look on strange women; and your heart shall speak perverse things. And you shall be as one who lies down in the heart of the seas; or as he who lies on the top of a mast. They struck me; not I was sick. They beat me; not I did know (it). When will I awaken, I will add, I will seek it still.

Proverbs 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; form 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.
