Proverbs, Chapter 18

1 Hea Lit breaks outquarrels against all sound wisdom.
2 He who separates himself seeks his own desire,
2 A fool does not delight in understanding,
But only in revealing his ownb Lit heartmind.
3 When a wicked man comes, contempt also comes,
And with dishonor comes scorn.
4 The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters;
c Or A bubbling brook, a fountain of wisdomThe fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook.
5 To show partiality to the wicked is not good,
Nor to thrust aside the righteous in judgment.
6 A fool’s lipsd Lit come withbring strife,
And his mouth calls for blows.
7 A fool’s mouth is his ruin,
And his lips are the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a whisperer are like dainty morsels,
And they go down into thee Lit chambers of the bellyinnermost parts of the body.
9 He also who is slack in his work
Is brother to him who destroys.
10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower;
The righteous runs into it and isf Lit set on highsafe.
11 A rich man’s wealth is his strong city,
And like a high wall in his own imagination.
12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty,
But humility goes before honor.
13 He who gives an answer before he hears,
It is folly and shame to him.
14 The spirit of a man can endure his sickness,
But as for a broken spirit who can bear it?
15 Theg Lit heartmind of the prudent acquires knowledge,
And the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
16 A man’s gift makes room for him
And brings him before great men.
17 The firsth Lit in his pleato plead his case seems right,
Untili Lit his neighboranother comes and examines him.
18 The cast lot puts an end to strife
Andj Lit makes a divisiondecides between the mighty ones.
19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city,
And contentions are like the bars of a citadel.
20 With thek I.e. speechfruit of a man’s mouth his stomach will be satisfied;
He will be satisfied with the product of his lips.
21 Death and life are in thel Lit handpower of the tongue,
And those who love it will eat its fruit.
22 He who finds a wife finds a good thing
And obtains favor from the LORD.
23 The poor man utters supplications,
But the rich man answers roughly.
24 A man of too many friends comes tom Lit be broken in piecesruin,
But there is an Or loverfriend who sticks closer than a brother.
