ylt@Proverbs:1:1 @Proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:

ylt@Proverbs:1:2 @For knowing wisdom and instruction, For understanding sayings of intelligence,

ylt@Proverbs:1:3 @For receiving the instruction of wisdom, Righteousness, judgment, and uprightness,

ylt@Proverbs:1:4 @For giving to simple ones -- prudence, To a youth -- knowledge and discretion.

ylt@Proverbs:1:5 @(The wise doth hear and increaseth learning, And the intelligent doth obtain counsels.)

ylt@Proverbs:1:6 @For understanding a proverb and its sweetness, Words of the wise and their acute sayings.

ylt@Proverbs:1:7 @Fear of Jehovah [is] a beginning of knowledge, Wisdom and instruction fools have despised!

ylt@Proverbs:1:8 @Hear, my son, the instruction of thy father, And leave not the law of thy mother,

ylt@Proverbs:1:9 @For a graceful wreath [are] they to thy head, And chains to thy neck.

ylt@Proverbs:1:10 @My son, if sinners entice thee be not willing.

ylt@Proverbs:1:11 @If they say, 'Come with us, we lay wait for blood, We watch secretly for the innocent without cause,

ylt@Proverbs:1:12 @We swallow them as Sheol -- alive, And whole -- as those going down [to] the pit,

ylt@Proverbs:1:13 @Every precious substance we find, We fill our houses [with] spoil,

ylt@Proverbs:1:14 @Thy lot thou dost cast among us, One purse is -- to all of us.'

ylt@Proverbs:1:15 @My son! go not in the way with them, Withhold thy foot from their path,

ylt@Proverbs:1:16 @For their feet to evil do run, And they haste to shed blood.

ylt@Proverbs:1:17 @Surely in vain is the net spread out before the eyes of any bird.

ylt@Proverbs:1:18 @And they for their own blood lay wait, They watch secretly for their own lives.

ylt@Proverbs:1:19 @So [are] the paths of every gainer of dishonest gain, The life of its owners it taketh.

ylt@Proverbs:1:20 @Wisdom in an out-place crieth aloud, In broad places she giveth forth her voice,

ylt@Proverbs:1:21 @At the head of the multitudes she calleth, In the openings of the gates, In the city her sayings she saith:

ylt@Proverbs:1:22 @'Till when, ye simple, do ye love simplicity? And have scorners their scorning desired? And do fools hate knowledge?

ylt@Proverbs:1:23 @Turn back at my reproof, lo, I pour forth to you my spirit, I make known my words with you.

ylt@Proverbs:1:24 @Because I have called, and ye refuse, I stretched out my hand, and none is attending,

ylt@Proverbs:1:25 @And ye slight all my counsel, And my reproof ye have not desired.

ylt@Proverbs:1:26 @I also in your calamity do laugh, I deride when your fear cometh,

ylt@Proverbs:1:27 @When your fear cometh as destruction, And your calamity as a hurricane doth come, When on you come adversity and distress.

ylt@Proverbs:1:28 @Then they call me, and I do not answer, They seek me earnestly, and find me not.

ylt@Proverbs:1:29 @Because that they have hated knowledge, And the fear of Jehovah have not chosen.

ylt@Proverbs:1:30 @They have not consented to my counsel, They have despised all my reproof,

ylt@Proverbs:1:31 @And they eat of the fruit of their way, And from their own counsels they are filled.

ylt@Proverbs:1:32 @For the turning of the simple slayeth them, And the security of the foolish destroyeth them.

ylt@Proverbs:1:33 @And whoso is hearkening to me dwelleth confidently, And [is] quiet from fear of evil!'
