rotherham@Proverbs:1:5 @ A wise man, will hear, and will increase learning, and a, discreet man, wise counsels, will acquire,

rotherham@Proverbs:1:6 @ By gaining discernment of proverb, and satire, the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:7 @ The reverence of Yahweh, is the beginning of knowledge, Wisdom and correction, the foolish have despised.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:8 @ Hear, my son, the correction of thy father, and do not reject the instruction of thy mother;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:9 @ For, a wreath of beauty, shall they be to thy head, and chains of ornament, to thy neck.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:10 @ My son, if sinners entice thee, do not consent.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:11 @ If they say Come with us, Let us lie in wait for blood, Let us watch in secret for him who is needlessly innocent;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:12 @ Let us engulf them, like hades, alive, While in health, like them who are going down to the pit;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:13 @ All costly substance, shall we find, We shall fill our houses with spoil;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:14 @ Thy lot, shalt thou cast into our midst, One purse, shall there be, for us all.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:15 @ My son, do not walk in the way with them, Withhold thy foot from their path.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:16 @ For, their feet, to mischief, do run, and haste to the shedding of blood.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:17 @ Surely, in vain, is spread the net, in the sight of aught that hath wings!

rotherham@Proverbs:1:18 @ Yet, they, for their own blood, lie in wait, They watch in secret for their own life.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:19 @ Such are the ways of every one that graspeth with greed, The life of the owners thereof, it taketh away!

rotherham@Proverbs:1:20 @ Wisdom, in the open place, soundeth forth, in the broadways, she raiseth her voice;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:21 @ At the head of bustling streets, she crieth aloud, at the openings of the gates in the cityher sayings, she doth utter:

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

rotherham@Proverbs:1:23 @ Will ye turn, at my reproof? Lo! I will pour out to you my spirit, I will make known my words to you.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:24 @ Because I called, and ye refused, I stretched out my hand, and no one regarded;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:25 @ But ye dismissed all my counsel, and, to my rebuke, would not yield,

rotherham@Proverbs:1:26 @ I also, at your calamity, will laugh, I will mock, when cometh your dread;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:27 @ When cometh as a crashing your dread, and, your calamity, as a storm-wind, overtaketh, when there come upon you, distress and anguish.

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

rotherham@Proverbs:1:29 @ Because they hated knowledge, and, the reverence of Yahweh, did not choose;

rotherham@Proverbs:1:30 @ Consented not to my counsel, disdained all my rebuke,

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

rotherham@Proverbs:1:32 @ For, the turning away of the simple, will slay them, and, the carelessness of dullards, will destroy them.

rotherham@Proverbs:1:33 @ Whereas, he that hearkeneth unto me, shall dwell safely, and be at rest, without dread of misfortune.
