Proverbs 10

1The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son the heaviness of his mother. 2Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death. 3The Yahuah will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked. 4He becometh poor that dealeth a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. 5He that gathereth in summer a wise son: he that sleepeth in harvest a son that causeth shame. 6Blessings upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked. 7The memory of the just blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot. 8The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool shall fall. 9He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth his ways shall be known. 10He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall. 11The mouth of a righteous a well of life: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked. 12Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins. 13In the lips of him that has understanding wisdom is found: but a rod for the back of him that is void of understanding. 14Wise lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish near destruction. 15The rich man's wealth his strong city: the destruction of the poor their poverty. 16The labour of the righteous to life: the fruit of the wicked to sin. 17He the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth. 18He that hideth hatred lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, a fool. 19In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that refraineth his lips wise. 20The tongue of the just choice silver: the heart of the wicked little worth. 21The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom. 22The blessing of the Yahuah, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. 23as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding has wisdom. 24The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: but the desire of the righteous shall be granted. 25As the whirlwind passeth, so the wicked no : but the righteous an everlasting foundation. 26As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so the sluggard to them that send him. 27The fear of the Yahuah prolongeth days: but the years of the wicked shall be shortened. 28The hope of the righteous gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish. 29The way of the Yahuah strength to the upright: but destruction to the workers of iniquity. 30The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth. 31The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward tongue shall be cut out. 32The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth of the wicked frowardness.
