1The Proverbs of Solomon: A wise child makes a father rejoice, but a foolish child is a grief to his mother. 1מִשְׁלֵ֗י שְׁלֹ֫מֹ֥ה פ בֵּ֣ן חָ֭כָם יְשַׂמַּח־ אָ֑ב וּבֵ֥ן כְּ֝סִ֗יל תּוּגַ֥ת אִמּֽוֹ׃
2Treasures gained by wickedness do not profit, but righteousness delivers from mortal danger. 2לֹא־ י֭וֹעִילוּ אוֹצְר֣וֹת רֶ֑שַׁע וּ֝צְדָקָ֗ה תַּצִּ֥יל מִמָּֽוֶת׃
3The LORD satisfies the appetite of the righteous, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked. 3לֹֽא־ יַרְעִ֣יב יְ֭הוָה נֶ֣פֶשׁ צַדִּ֑יק וְהַוַּ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים יֶהְדֹּֽף׃
4The one who is lazy becomes poor, but the one who works diligently becomes wealthy. 4רָ֗אשׁ עֹשֶׂ֥ה כַף־ רְמִיָּ֑ה וְיַ֖ד חָרוּצִ֣ים תַּעֲשִֽׁיר׃
5The one who gathers crops in the summer is a wise son, but the one who sleeps during the harvest is a son who brings shame to himself. 5אֹגֵ֣ר בַּ֭קַּיִץ בֵּ֣ן מַשְׂכִּ֑יל נִרְדָּ֥ם בַּ֝קָּצִ֗יר בֵּ֣ן מֵבִֽישׁ׃
6Blessings are on the head of the righteous, but the speech of the wicked conceals violence. 6בְּ֭רָכוֹת לְרֹ֣אשׁ צַדִּ֑יק וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יְכַסֶּ֥ה חָמָֽס׃
7The memory of the righteous is a blessing, but the reputation of the wicked will rot. 7זֵ֣כֶר צַ֭דִּיק לִבְרָכָ֑ה וְשֵׁ֖ם רְשָׁעִ֣ים יִרְקָֽב׃
8The wise person accepts instructions, but the one who speaks foolishness will come to ruin. 8חֲכַם־ לֵ֭ב יִקַּ֣ח מִצְוֺ֑ת וֶאֱוִ֥יל שְׂ֝פָתַ֗יִם יִלָּבֵֽט׃
9The one who conducts himself in integrity will live securely, but the one who behaves perversely will be found out. 9הוֹלֵ֣ךְ בַּ֭תֹּם יֵ֣לֶךְ בֶּ֑טַח וּמְעַקֵּ֥שׁ דְּ֝רָכָ֗יו יִוָּדֵֽעַ׃
10The one who winks his eye causes trouble, and the one who speaks foolishness will come to ruin. 10קֹ֣רֵֽץ‪‬ עַ֭יִן יִתֵּ֣ן עַצָּ֑בֶת וֶאֱוִ֥יל שְׂ֝פָתַ֗יִם יִלָּבֵֽט׃
11The teaching of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the speech of the wicked conceals violence. 11מְק֣וֹר חַ֭יִּים פִּ֣י צַדִּ֑יק וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יְכַסֶּ֥ה חָמָֽס׃
12Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers all transgressions. 12שִׂ֭נְאָה תְּעוֹרֵ֣ר מְדָנִ֑ים וְעַ֥ל כָּל־ פְּ֝שָׁעִ֗ים תְּכַסֶּ֥ה אַהֲבָֽה׃
13Wisdom is found in the words of the discerning person, but the one who lacks wisdom will be disciplined. 13בְּשִׂפְתֵ֣י נָ֭בוֹן תִּמָּצֵ֣א חָכְמָ֑ה וְ֝שֵׁ֗בֶט לְגֵ֣ו חֲסַר־ לֵֽב׃
14Those who are wise store up knowledge, but foolish speech leads to imminent destruction. 14חֲכָמִ֥ים יִצְפְּנוּ־ דָ֑עַת וּפִֽי־ אֱ֝וִיל מְחִתָּ֥ה קְרֹבָֽה׃
15The wealth of a rich person is like a fortified city, but the poor are brought to ruin by their poverty. 15ה֣וֹן עָ֭שִׁיר קִרְיַ֣ת עֻזּ֑וֹ מְחִתַּ֖ת דַּלִּ֣ים רֵישָֽׁם׃
16The reward which the righteous receive is life; the recompense which the wicked receive is judgment. 16פְּעֻלַּ֣ת צַדִּ֣יק לְחַיִּ֑ים תְּבוּאַ֖ת רָשָׁ֣ע לְחַטָּֽאת׃
17The one who heeds instruction is on the way to life, but the one who rejects rebuke goes astray. 17אֹ֣רַח לְ֭חַיִּים שׁוֹמֵ֣ר מוּסָ֑ר וְעוֹזֵ֖ב תּוֹכַ֣חַת מַתְעֶֽה׃
18The one who conceals hatred utters lies, and the one who spreads slander is certainly a fool. 18מְכַסֶּ֣ה שִׂ֭נְאָה שִׂפְתֵי־ שָׁ֑קֶר וּמוֹצִ֥א דִ֝בָּ֗ה ה֣וּא כְסִֽיל׃
19When words abound, transgression is inevitable, but the one who restrains his words is wise. 19בְּרֹ֣ב דְּ֭בָרִים לֹ֣א יֶחְדַּל־ פָּ֑שַׁע וְחֹשֵׂ֖ךְ שְׂפָתָ֣יו מַשְׂכִּֽיל׃
20What the righteous say is like the best silver, but what the wicked think is of little value. 20כֶּ֣סֶף נִ֭בְחָר לְשׁ֣וֹן צַדִּ֑יק לֵ֖ב רְשָׁעִ֣ים כִּמְעָֽט׃
21The teaching of the righteous feeds many, but fools die for lack of wisdom. 21שִׂפְתֵ֣י צַ֭דִּיק יִרְע֣וּ רַבִּ֑ים וֶֽ֝אֱוִילִ֗ים בַּחֲסַר־ לֵ֥ב יָמֽוּתוּ׃
22The blessing from the LORD makes a person rich, and he adds no sorrow to it. 22בִּרְכַּ֣ת יְ֭הוָה הִ֣יא תַעֲשִׁ֑יר וְלֹֽא־ יוֹסִ֖ף עֶ֣צֶב עִמָּֽהּ׃
23Carrying out a wicked scheme is enjoyable to a fool, and so is wisdom for the one who has discernment. 23כִּשְׂח֣וֹק לִ֭כְסִיל עֲשׂ֣וֹת זִמָּ֑ה וְ֝חָכְמָ֗ה לְאִ֣ישׁ תְּבוּנָֽה׃
24What the wicked fears will come on him; what the righteous desire will be granted. 24מְגוֹרַ֣ת רָ֭שָׁע הִ֣יא תְבוֹאֶ֑נּוּ וְתַאֲוַ֖ת צַדִּיקִ֣ים יִתֵּֽן׃
25When the storm passes through, the wicked are swept away, but the righteous are an everlasting foundation. 25כַּעֲב֣וֹר ס֭וּפָה וְאֵ֣ין רָשָׁ֑ע וְ֝צַדִּ֗יק יְס֣וֹד עוֹלָֽם׃
26Like vinegar to the teeth and like smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to those who send him. 26כַּחֹ֤מֶץ ׀ לַשִּׁנַּ֗יִם וְכֶעָשָׁ֥ן לָעֵינָ֑יִם כֵּ֥ן הֶ֝עָצֵ֗ל לְשֹׁלְחָֽיו׃
27Fearing the LORD prolongs life, but the life span of the wicked will be shortened. 27יִרְאַ֣ת יְ֭הוָה תּוֹסִ֣יף יָמִ֑ים וּשְׁנ֖וֹת רְשָׁעִ֣ים תִּקְצֹֽרְנָה׃
28The hope of the righteous is joy, but the expectation of the wicked will remain unfulfilled. 28תּוֹחֶ֣לֶת צַדִּיקִ֣ים שִׂמְחָ֑ה וְתִקְוַ֖ת רְשָׁעִ֣ים תֹּאבֵֽד׃
29The way of the LORD is like a stronghold for the upright, but it is destruction to evildoers. 29מָע֣וֹז לַ֭תֹּם דֶּ֣רֶךְ יְהוָ֑ה וּ֝מְחִתָּ֗ה לְפֹ֣עֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
30The righteous will never be moved, but the wicked will not inhabit the land. 30צַדִּ֣יק לְעוֹלָ֣ם בַּל־ יִמּ֑וֹט וּ֝רְשָׁעִ֗ים לֹ֣א יִשְׁכְּנוּ־ אָֽרֶץ׃
31The speech of the righteous bears the fruit of wisdom, but the one who speaks perversion will be destroyed. 31פִּֽי־ צַ֭דִּיק יָנ֣וּב חָכְמָ֑ה וּלְשׁ֥וֹן תַּ֝הְפֻּכ֗וֹת תִּכָּרֵֽת׃
32The lips of the righteous know what is pleasing, but the speech of the wicked is perverse. 32שִׂפְתֵ֣י צַ֭דִּיק יֵדְע֣וּן רָצ֑וֹן וּפִ֥י רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים תַּהְפֻּכֽוֹת׃
