Proverbs 10

Darby Bible

1The ProverbsH4912 of SolomonH8010. A wiseH2450 sonH1121 maketh a gladH8055 fatherH1; but a foolish sonH1121 is the griefH8424 of his motherH517. 2TreasuresH214 of wickednessH7562 profitH3276 nothing; but righteousnessH6666 delivereth from deathH4194. 3Jehovah suffereth not the soulH5315 of the righteousH6662 [man] to famish; but he repelleth the craving of the wickedH7563. 4He cometh to want that dealeth with a slack handH3027; but the handH3027 of the diligent maketh richH6238. 5He that gathereth in summerH7019 is a wiseH7919 sonH1121; he that sleepeth in harvestH7105 is a sonH1121 that causeth shameH954. 6BlessingsH1293 are upon the headH7218 of a righteousH6662 [man]; but the mouthH6310 of the wickedH7563 covereth violenceH2555. 7The memoryH2143 of the righteousH6662 [man] shall be blessed; but the nameH8034 of the wickedH7563 shall rotH7537. 8The wiseH2450 in heartH3820 receiveth commandmentsH4687; but a prating foolH191 shall fall. 9He that walketh in integrityH8537 walketh securely; but he that perverteth his waysH1870 shall be knownH3045. 10He that winketh with the eyeH5869 causeth grief, and a prating foolH191 shall fall. 11The mouthH6310 of a righteousH6662 [man] is a fountainH4726 of lifeH2416; but the mouthH6310 of the wickedH7563 covereth violenceH2555. 12HatredH8135 stirreth up strifes; but loveH160 covereth all transgressionsH6588. 13In the lipsH8193 of an intelligent [man] wisdomH2451 is foundH4672; but a rodH7626 is for the back of him that is void of understandingH995. 14The wiseH2450 lay up knowledgeH1847; but the mouthH6310 of the foolH191 is near destruction. 15The richH6223 man's wealthH1952 is his strong city; the destruction of the poorH1800 is their povertyH7389. 16The labour of a righteousH6662 [man] [tendeth] to lifeH2416; the revenue of a wickedH7563 [man], to sinH2403. 17KeepingH8104 instruction is the pathH734 to lifeH2416; but he that forsaketh reproof goeth astrayH8582. 18He that covereth hatredH8135 hath lyingH8267 lipsH8193, and he that sendeth forthH3318 a slander is a foolH3684. 19In the multitudeH7230 of wordsH1697 there wanteth not transgressionH6588; but he that restraineth his lipsH8193 doeth wisely. 20The tongueH3956 of the righteousH6662 [man] is [as] choice silverH3701; the heartH3820 of the wickedH7563 is littleH4592 worth. 21The lipsH8193 of a righteousH6662 [man] feedH7462 manyH7227; but foolsH191 dieH4191 for want of understanding. 22The blessingH1293 of Jehovah, it maketh richH6238, and he addeth no sorrow to it. 23It is as sport to a foolish [manH376] to do wickednessH2154; but a manH376 of understandingH8394 hath wisdomH2451. 24The fear of a wickedH7563 [man], it shall comeH935 upon him; but the desireH8378 of the righteousH6662 shall be granted. 25As a whirlwind passeth, so is the wickedH7563 no [more]; but the righteousH6662 is an everlasting foundationH3247. 26As vinegarH2558 to the teethH8127, and as smokeH6227 to the eyesH5869, soH3651 is the sluggardH6102 to them that sendH7971 him. 27The fearH3374 of Jehovah prolongeth daysH3117; but the yearsH8141 of the wickedH7563 shall be shortened. 28The hopeH8615 of the righteousH6662 is joyH8057; but the expectation of the wickedH7563 shall perishH6. 29The wayH1870 of Jehovah is strength to the perfect [man], but destruction to the workers of iniquity. 30The righteousH6662 [man] shall never be moved; but the wickedH7563 shall not inhabit the landH776. 31The mouthH6310 of a righteousH6662 [man] putteth forth wisdomH2451; but the froward tongueH3956 shall be cutH3772 out. 32The lipsH8193 of a righteousH6662 [man] knowH3045 what is acceptable; but the mouthH6310 of the wickedH7563 is frowardness.
