Proverbs, Chapter 19

1 Than he who is perverse ina Lit his lipsspeech and is a fool.
2 Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity
2 Also it is not good for a person to be without knowledge,
And he who hurriesb Lit with his feethis footstepsc Lit sinserrs.
3 The foolishness of man ruins his way,
And his heart rages against the LORD.
4 Wealth adds many friends,
But a poor man is separated from his friend.
5 A false witness will not go unpunished,
And he whod Lit breathestells lies will not escape.
6 Many will seek the favor of ae Or noblegenerous man,
And every man is a friend to him who gives gifts.
7 All the brothers of a poor man hate him;
How much more do his friends abandon him!
He pursues them with words, but they aref Lit notgone.
8 He who getsg Lit heartwisdom loves his own soul;
He who keeps understanding will find good.
9 A false witness will not go unpunished,
And he whoh Lit breathestells lies will perish.
10 Luxury is not fitting for a fool;
Much less for a slave to rule over princes.
11 A man’s discretion makes him slow to anger,
And it is his glory to overlook a transgression.
12 The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion,
But his favor is like dew on the grass.
13 A foolish son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.
14 House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers,
But a prudent wife is from the LORD.
15 Laziness casts into a deep sleep,
And an idlei Lit soulman will suffer hunger.
16 He who keeps the commandment keeps his soul,
But he whoj Lit despisesis careless ofk Lit waysconduct will die.
17 One who is gracious to a poor man lends to the LORD,
And He will repay him for hisl Or benefitsgood deed.
18 Discipline your son while there is hope,
And do not desirem Lit causing him to diehis death.
19 A man of great anger will bear the penalty,
For if you rescue him, you will only have to do it again.
20 Listen to counsel and accept discipline,
That you may be wisen Lit in your latter endthe rest of your days.
21 Many plans are in a man’s heart,
But the counsel of the LORD will stand.
22 What is desirable in a man is hiso Or loyaltykindness,
And it is better to be a poor man than a liar.
23 Thep Or reverencefear of the LORD leads to life,
So that one may sleep satisfied,q Lit not visiteduntouched by evil.
24 The sluggard buries his hand in the dish,
But will not even bring it back to his mouth.
25 Strike a scoffer and ther Lit simplenaive may become shrewd,
But reprove one who has understanding and he wills Lit discerngain knowledge.
26 He who assaults his father and drives his mother away
Is a shameful and disgraceful son.
27 Cease listening, my son, to discipline,
And you will stray from the words of knowledge.
28 A rascally witness makes a mockery of justice,
And the mouth of the wickedt Or swallowsspreads iniquity.
29 u Gr RodsJudgments are prepared for scoffers,
And blows for the back of fools.
