acv@Proverbs:1:1 @ The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel,

acv@Proverbs:1:2 @ to know wisdom and instruction, to discern the words of understanding,

acv@Proverbs:1:3 @ to receive instruction in wise dealing, in righteousness and justice and equity,

acv@Proverbs:1:4 @ to give prudence to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion,

acv@Proverbs:1:5 @ that the wise man may hear, and increase in learning, and that the man of understanding may attain to sound counsels,

acv@Proverbs:1:6 @ to understand a proverb, and a figure, the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.

acv@Proverbs:1:7 @ The fear of LORD is the beginning of knowledge. The foolish despise wisdom and instruction.

acv@Proverbs:1:8 @ My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother.

acv@Proverbs:1:9 @ For they shall be a garland of grace to thy head, and chains about thy neck.

acv@Proverbs:1:10 @ My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.

acv@Proverbs:1:11 @ If they say, Come with us. Let us lay wait for blood. Let us lurk secretly for the innocent without cause.

acv@Proverbs:1:12 @ Let us swallow them up alive as Sheol, and whole, as those who go down into the pit.

acv@Proverbs:1:13 @ We shall find all precious substance. We shall fill our houses with spoil.

acv@Proverbs:1:14 @ Thou shall cast thy lot among us. We will all have one bag.

acv@Proverbs:1:15 @ My son, walk not thou in the way with them. Restrain thy foot from their path.

acv@Proverbs:1:16 @ For their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood.

acv@Proverbs:1:17 @ For in vain is the net spread in the sight of any bird,

acv@Proverbs:1:18 @ and these lay wait for their own blood. They lurk secretly for their own lives.

acv@Proverbs:1:19 @ So are the ways of everyone who is greedy of gain. It takes away the life of the owners of it.

acv@Proverbs:1:20 @ Wisdom cries aloud in the street. She utters her voice in the broad places.

acv@Proverbs:1:21 @ She cries in the chief place of concourse, at the entrance of the gates, in the city. She utters her words:

acv@Proverbs:1:22 @ How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? And scoffers delight them in scoffing, and fools hate knowledge?

acv@Proverbs:1:23 @ Turn back at my reproof. Behold, I will pour out my spirit upon you. I will make my words known to you.

acv@Proverbs:1:24 @ Because I have called, and ye have refused, I have stretched out my hand, and no man has regarded,

acv@Proverbs:1:25 @ but ye have made all my counsel void, and want none of my reproof,

acv@Proverbs:1:26 @ I also will laugh at your calamity. I will mock when your fear comes,

acv@Proverbs:1:27 @ when your fear comes as a storm, and your calamity comes on as a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you.

acv@Proverbs:1:28 @ Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they shall not find me,

acv@Proverbs:1:29 @ because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of LORD.

acv@Proverbs:1:30 @ They wanted none of my counsel. They despised all my reproof.

acv@Proverbs:1:31 @ Therefore they shall eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

acv@Proverbs:1:32 @ For the backsliding of the simple shall kill them, and the careless ease of fools shall destroy them.

acv@Proverbs:1:33 @ But he who hearkens to me shall dwell securely, and shall be quiet without fear of evil.
