15My sonH1121, ifH518 your heartH3820 isH2449 1wiseH2449, My own heartH3820 alsoH1571 will beH8055 gladH8055,16And my 2innermostH3629 beingH3629 will rejoiceH5937 When your lipsH8193 speakH1696 3whatH4339 isH4339 rightH4339.

174Do not let your heartH3820 envyH7065 sinnersH2400, But live in 5the 6fearH3374 of the LordH3068 7alwaysH3605H3117.18CertainlyH3588H518 thereH3426 isH3426 a 89futureH319, And your 10hopeH8615 will not be cutH3772 offH3772.19ListenH8085, my sonH1121, and 11beH2449 wiseH2449, And 12directH833 your heartH3820 in the wayH1870.20Do not be with 13heavyH5433 drinkersH5433 of wineH3196, Or with 14gluttonousH2151 eatersH2151 of meatH1320;21For the 15heavyH5433 drinkerH5433 and the gluttonH2151 will comeH3423 to povertyH3423, And 16drowsinessH5124 will clotheH3847 one with ragsH7168.

2217ListenH8085 to your fatherH1, who fatheredH3205 you, And 18do not despiseH936 your motherH517 whenH3588 she isH2204 oldH2204.2319BuyH7069 truthH571, and do not sellH4376 it, Get wisdomH2451, instructionH4148, and understandingH998.

24The fatherH1 of the righteousH6662 will greatlyH1524 rejoiceH1523, And 20he who fathersH3205 a wiseH2450 sonH2450 will beH8055 gladH8055 in him.25Let your 21fatherH1 and your motherH517 beH8055 gladH8055, And let her rejoiceH1523 who gaveH3205 birthH3205 to you.

2622GiveH5414 me your heartH3820, my sonH1121, And let your eyesH5869 2324delightH7521 in my waysH1870.27For a prostituteH2181 is a 25deepH6013 pitH7745, And a 2627strangeH5237 womanH5237 is a narrowH6862 wellH875.28CertainlyH637 she 28lurksH693 as a robberH2863, And increasesH3254 the treacherousH898 among mankindH120.

29WhoH4310 has 29woeH190? WhoH4310 has sorrowH17? WhoH4310 has contentionsH4066? WhoH4310 has complainingH7879? WhoH4310 has woundsH6482 withoutH2600 causeH2600? WhoH4310 has redH2448 eyesH5869?30Those who 30lingerH309 long overH5921 wineH3196, Those who goH935 to 31tasteH2713 32mixedH4469 wineH4469.31Do not lookH7200 at wineH3196 whenH3588 it is redH119, WhenH3588 it 33sparklesH5414H5869 in the cupH3563, When it 34goesH1980 downH1980 smoothlyH4339;32In the endH319 it 35bitesH5391 like a snakeH5175 And stingsH6567 like a 36viperH6848.33Your eyesH5869 will seeH7200 strangeH2114 thingsH2114 And your 37mindH3820 will 38sayH1696 perverseH8419 thingsH8419.34And you will be like one who liesH7901 downH7901 in the 39middleH3820 of the seaH3220, Or like one who liesH7901 downH7901 on the topH7218 of a 40mastH2260.35“They 41struckH5221 me, but I did not becomeH2470 42illH2470; They beatH1986 me, but I did not knowH3045 it. WhenH4970 will I awakeH7019? I will 43seekH1245 44anotherH5750H3254 drink.”
