1The proverbs H4912 of Solomon H8010 the son H1121 of David H1732, king H4428 of Israel H3478;

2To know H3045 (H8800) wisdom H2451 and instruction H4148; to perceive H995 (H8687) the words H561 of understanding H998;

3To receive H3947 (H8800) the instruction H4148 of wisdom H7919 (H8687), justice H6664, and judgment H4941, and equity H4339;

4To give H5414 (H8800) subtilty H6195 to the simple H6612, to the young man H5288 knowledge H1847 and discretion H4209.

5A wise H2450 man will hear H8085 (H8799), and will increase H3254 (H8686) learning H3948; and a man of understanding H995 (H8737) shall attain H7069 (H8799) unto wise counsels H8458:

6To understand H995 (H8687) a proverb H4912, and the interpretation H4426; the words H1697 of the wise H2450, and their dark sayings H2420.

7The fear H3374 of the LORD H3068 is the beginning H7225 of knowledge H1847: but fools H191 despise H936 (H8804) wisdom H2451 and instruction H4148.

8My son H1121, hear H8085 (H8798) the instruction H4148 of thy father H1, and forsake H5203 (H8799) not the law H8451 of thy mother H517:

9For they shall be an ornament H3880 of grace H2580 unto thy head H7218, and chains H6060 about thy neck H1621.

10My son H1121, if sinners H2400 entice H6601 (H8762) thee, consent H14 (H8799) thou not.

11If they say H559 (H8799), Come H3212 (H8798) with us, let us lay wait H693 (H8799) for blood H1818, let us lurk H6845 (H8799) privily for the innocent H5355 without cause H2600:

12Let us swallow them up H1104 (H8799) alive H2416 as the grave H7585; and whole H8549, as those that go down H3381 (H8802) into the pit H953:

13We shall find H4672 (H8799) all precious H3368 substance H1952, we shall fill H4390 (H8762) our houses H1004 with spoil H7998:

14Cast H5307 (H8686) in thy lot H1486 among H8432 us; let us all have one H259 purse H3599:

15My son H1121, walk H3212 (H8799) not thou in the way H1870 with them; refrain H4513 (H8798) thy foot H7272 from their path H5410:

16For their feet H7272 run H7323 (H8799) to evil H7451, and make haste H4116 (H8762) to shed H8210 (H8800) blood H1818.

17Surely in vain H2600 the net H7568 is spread H2219 (H8794) in the sight H5869 of any bird H1167 H3671.

18And they lay wait H693 (H8799) for their own blood H1818; they lurk privily H6845 (H8799) for their own lives H5315.

19So are the ways H734 of every one that is greedy H1214 (H8802) of gain H1215; which taketh away H3947 (H8799) the life H5315 of the owners H1167 thereof.

20Wisdom H2454 crieth H7442 (H8799) without H2351; she uttereth H5414 (H8799) her voice H6963 in the streets H7339:

21She crieth H7121 (H8799) in the chief place H7218 of concourse H1993 (H8802), in the openings H6607 of the gates H8179: in the city H5892 she uttereth H559 (H8799) her words H561, saying,

22How long, ye simple ones H6612, will ye love H157 (H8799) simplicity H6612? and the scorners H3887 (H8801) delight H2530 (H8804) in their scorning H3944, and fools H3684 hate H8130 (H8799) knowledge H1847?

23Turn H7725 (H8799) you at my reproof H8433: behold, I will pour out H5042 (H8686) my spirit H7307 unto you, I will make known H3045 (H8686) my words H1697 unto you.

24Because I have called H7121 (H8804), and ye refused H3985 (H8762); I have stretched out H5186 (H8804) my hand H3027, and no man regarded H7181 (H8688);

25But ye have set at nought H6544 (H8799) all my counsel H6098, and would H14 (H8804) none of my reproof H8433:

26I also will laugh H7832 (H8799) at your calamity H343; I will mock H3932 (H8799) when your fear H6343 cometh H935 (H8800);

27When your fear H6343 cometh H935 (H8800) as desolation H7722 (H8675) H7584, and your destruction H343 cometh H857 (H8799) as a whirlwind H5492; when distress H6869 and anguish H6695 cometh H935 (H8800) upon you.

28Then shall they call H7121 (H8799) upon me, but I will not answer H6030 (H8799); they shall seek me early H7836 (H8762), but they shall not find H4672 (H8799) me:

29For that they hated H8130 (H8804) knowledge H1847, and did not choose H977 (H8804) the fear H3374 of the LORD H3068:

30They would H14 (H8804) none of my counsel H6098: they despised H5006 (H8804) all my reproof H8433.

31Therefore shall they eat H398 (H8799) of the fruit H6529 of their own way H1870, and be filled H7646 (H8799) with their own devices H4156.

32For the turning away H4878 of the simple H6612 shall slay H2026 (H8799) them, and the prosperity H7962 of fools H3684 shall destroy H6 (H8762) them.

33But whoso hearkeneth H8085 (H8802) unto me shall dwell H7931 (H8799) safely H983, and shall be quiet H7599 (H8768) from fear H6343 of evil H7451.
