Proverbs - Chapter: 1

>
1:1The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;
1:2To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;
1:3To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
1:4To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.
1:5A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:
1:6To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.
1:7The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
1:8My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
1:9For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.
1:10My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.
1:11If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:
1:12Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:
1:13We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:
1:14Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:
1:15My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:
1:16For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
1:17Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.
1:18And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.
1:19So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.
1:20Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
1:21She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,
1:22How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
1:23Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
1:24Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
1:25But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
1:26I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
1:27When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
1:28Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
1:29For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
1:30They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
1:31Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.
1:32For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.
1:33But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.

 

1:1משׁלי שׁלמה בן דוד מלך ישׂראל׃
1:2לדעת חכמה ומוסר להבין אמרי בינה׃
1:3לקחת מוסר השׂכל צדק ומשׁפט ומישׁרים׃
1:4לתת לפתאים ערמה לנער דעת ומזמה׃
1:5ישׁמע חכם ויוסף לקח ונבון תחבלות יקנה׃
1:6להבין משׁל ומליצה דברי חכמים וחידתם׃
1:7יראת יהוה ראשׁית דעת חכמה ומוסר אוילים בזו׃
1:8שׁמע בני מוסר אביך ואל תטשׁ תורת אמך׃
1:9כי לוית חן הם לראשׁך וענקים לגרגרתיך׃
1:10בני אם יפתוך חטאים אל תבא׃
1:11אם יאמרו לכה אתנו נארבה לדם נצפנה לנקי חנם׃
1:12נבלעם כשׁאול חיים ותמימים כיורדי בור׃
1:13כל הון יקר נמצא נמלא בתינו שׁלל׃
1:14גורלך תפיל בתוכנו כיס אחד יהיה לכלנו׃
1:15בני אל תלך בדרך אתם מנע רגלך מנתיבתם׃
1:16כי רגליהם לרע ירוצו וימהרו לשׁפך דם׃
1:17כי חנם מזרה הרשׁת בעיני כל בעל כנף׃
1:18והם לדמם יארבו יצפנו לנפשׁתם׃
1:19כן ארחות כל בצע בצע את נפשׁ בעליו יקח׃
1:20חכמות בחוץ תרנה ברחבות תתן קולה׃
1:21בראשׁ המיות תקרא בפתחי שׁערים בעיר אמריה תאמר׃
1:22עד מתי פתים תאהבו פתי ולצים לצון חמדו להם וכסילים ישׂנאו דעת׃
1:23תשׁובו לתוכחתי הנה אביעה לכם רוחי אודיעה דברי אתכם׃
1:24יען קראתי ותמאנו נטיתי ידי ואין מקשׁיב׃
1:25ותפרעו כל עצתי ותוכחתי לא אביתם׃
1:26גם אני באידכם אשׂחק אלעג בבא פחדכם׃
1:27בבא כשׁאוה פחדכם ואידכם כסופה יאתה בבא עליכם צרה וצוקה׃
1:28אז יקראנני ולא אענה ישׁחרנני ולא ימצאנני׃
1:29תחת כי שׂנאו דעת ויראת יהוה לא בחרו׃
1:30לא אבו לעצתי נאצו כל תוכחתי׃
1:31ויאכלו מפרי דרכם וממעצתיהם ישׂבעו׃
1:32כי משׁובת פתים תהרגם ושׁלות כסילים תאבדם׃
1:33ושׁמע לי ישׁכן בטח ושׁאנן מפחד רעה׃

 

1:1Proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:
1:2For knowing wisdom and instruction, For understanding sayings of intelligence,
1:3For receiving the instruction of wisdom, Righteousness, judgment, and uprightness,
1:4For giving to simple ones -- prudence, To a youth -- knowledge and discretion.
1:5(The wise doth hear and increaseth learning, And the intelligent doth obtain counsels.)
1:6For understanding a proverb and its sweetness, Words of the wise and their acute sayings.
1:7Fear of Jehovah `is' a beginning of knowledge, Wisdom and instruction fools have despised!
1:8Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,
1:9For a graceful wreath `are' they to thy head, And chains to thy neck.
1:10My son, if sinners entice thee be not willing.
1:11If they say, `Come with us, we lay wait for blood, We watch secretly for the innocent without cause,
1:12We swallow them as Sheol -- alive, And whole -- as those going down `to' the pit,
1:13Every precious substance we find, We fill our houses `with' spoil,
1:14Thy lot thou dost cast among us, One purse is -- to all of us.'
1:15My son! go not in the way with them, Withhold thy foot from their path,
1:16For their feet to evil do run, And they haste to shed blood.
1:17Surely in vain is the net spread out before the eyes of any bird.
1:18And they for their own blood lay wait, They watch secretly for their own lives.
1:19So `are' the paths of every gainer of dishonest gain, The life of its owners it taketh.
1:20Wisdom in an out-place crieth aloud, In broad places she giveth forth her voice,
1:21At the head of the multitudes she calleth, In the openings of the gates, In the city her sayings she saith:
1:22`Till when, ye simple, do ye love simplicity? And have scorners their scorning desired? And do fools hate knowledge?
1:23Turn back at my reproof, lo, I pour forth to you my spirit, I make known my words with you.
1:24Because I have called, and ye refuse, I stretched out my hand, and none is attending,
1:25And ye slight all my counsel, And my reproof ye have not desired.
1:26I also in your calamity do laugh, I deride when your fear cometh,
1:27When your fear cometh as destruction, And your calamity as a hurricane doth come, When on you come adversity and distress.
1:28Then they call me, and I do not answer, They seek me earnestly, and find me not.
1:29Because that they have hated knowledge, And the fear of Jehovah have not chosen.
1:30They have not consented to my counsel, They have despised all my reproof,
1:31And they eat of the fruit of their way, And from their own counsels they are filled.
1:32For the turning of the simple slayeth them, And the security of the foolish destroyeth them.
1:33And whoso is hearkening to me dwelleth confidently, And `is' quiet from fear of evil!'
