updv@Proverbs:4:19 @ The way of the wicked is as darkness: They don't know at what they stumble.

updv@Proverbs:4:20 @ My son, attend to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings.

updv@Proverbs:4:21 @ Don't let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart.

updv@Proverbs:4:22 @ For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.

updv@Proverbs:4:23 @ Keep your heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life.

updv@Proverbs:4:24 @ Put away from you a wayward mouth, And perverse lips put far from you.

updv@Proverbs:4:25 @ Let your eyes look right on, And let your eyelids look straight before you.

updv@Proverbs:4:26 @ Make level the path of your feet, And let all your ways be established.

updv@Proverbs:4:27 @ Don't turn to the right hand nor to the left: Remove your foot from evil.

updv@Proverbs:5:1 @ My son, attend to my wisdom; Incline your ear to my understanding:

updv@Proverbs:5:2 @ That you may preserve discretion, And that your lips may keep knowledge.

updv@Proverbs:5:3 @ For the lips of a strange woman drop honey, And her mouth is smoother than oil:

updv@Proverbs:5:4 @ But in the end she is bitter as wormwood, Sharp as a two-edged sword.

updv@Proverbs:5:5 @ Her feet go down to death; Her steps take hold on Sheol;

updv@Proverbs:5:6 @ If she does not find the level path of life: Her ways are unstable, [and] she will not know.

updv@Proverbs:5:7 @ Now therefore, [my] sons, listen to me, And do not depart from the words of my mouth.

updv@Proverbs:5:8 @ Remove your way far from her, And don't come near the door of her house;

updv@Proverbs:5:9 @ Or else you will give your honor to others, And your years to the cruel;

updv@Proverbs:5:10 @ Or else strangers will be filled with your strength, And your labors [be] in the house of an alien,

updv@Proverbs:5:11 @ And you mourn at your latter end, When your flesh and your body are consumed,

updv@Proverbs:5:12 @ And say, How I have hated instruction, And my heart despised reproof;

updv@Proverbs:5:13 @ Neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, Nor inclined my ear to those who instructed me!

updv@Proverbs:5:14 @ I was well-near in all evil In the midst of the assembly and congregation.

updv@Proverbs:5:15 @ Drink waters out of your own cistern, And running waters out of your own well.

updv@Proverbs:5:16 @ Should your springs be dispersed abroad, And streams of water in the streets?

updv@Proverbs:5:17 @ Let them be for yourself alone, And not for strangers with you.

updv@Proverbs:5:18 @ Let your fountain be blessed; And rejoice in the wife of your youth.

updv@Proverbs:5:19 @ [As] a loving hind and a pleasant doe, Let her nipples immerse you at all times; And be ravished always with her love.

updv@Proverbs:5:20 @ For why should you, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, And embrace the bosom of a foreigner?

updv@Proverbs:5:21 @ For the ways of man are before the eyes of Yahweh; And he makes level all his paths.

updv@Proverbs:5:22 @ His own iniquities will take the wicked, And he will be held with the cords of his sin.

updv@Proverbs:5:23 @ He will die for lack of instruction; And in the greatness of his folly he will go astray.

updv@Proverbs:6:1 @ My son, if you have become surety for your fellow man, If you have stricken your hands for a stranger;

updv@Proverbs:6:2 @ You are snared with the words of your mouth, You are taken with the words of your mouth.

updv@Proverbs:6:3 @ Do this now, my son, and deliver yourself, Seeing you have come into the hand of your fellow man: Go, humble yourself, and importune your fellow man;

updv@Proverbs:6:4 @ Don't give sleep to your eyes, Nor slumber to your eyelids;

updv@Proverbs:6:5 @ Deliver yourself as a roe from the hand [of the hunter], And as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

updv@Proverbs:6:6 @ Go to the ant, you sluggard; Consider her ways, and be wise:

updv@Proverbs:6:7 @ Which having no chief, Overseer, or ruler,

updv@Proverbs:6:8 @ Provides her bread in the summer, And gathers her food in the harvest.

updv@Proverbs:6:9 @ How long will you sleep, O sluggard? When will you arise out of your sleep?

updv@Proverbs:6:10 @ [Yet] a little sleep, a little slumber, A little folding of the hands to sleep:

updv@Proverbs:6:11 @ So will your poverty come as a robber, And your want as an armed man.

updv@Proverbs:6:12 @ [A] worthless man, a man of iniquity, Is he who walks with a perverse mouth;

updv@Proverbs:6:13 @ That winks with his eyes, that speaks with his feet, That makes signs with his fingers;

updv@Proverbs:6:14 @ In whose heart is perverseness, Who devises evil continually, Who sows discord.

updv@Proverbs:6:15 @ Therefore will his calamity come suddenly; All of a sudden he will be broken, and that without remedy.

updv@Proverbs:6:16 @ There are six things which Yahweh hates; Yes, seven which are disgusting to him:

updv@Proverbs:6:17 @ Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood;

updv@Proverbs:6:18 @ A heart that devises wicked purposes, Feet that are swift in running to mischief,

updv@Proverbs:6:19 @ A false witness that utters lies, And he who sows discord among brothers.

updv@Proverbs:6:20 @ My son, keep the commandment of your father, And don't forsake the law of your mother:

updv@Proverbs:6:21 @ Bind them continually on your heart; Tie them about your neck.

updv@Proverbs:6:22 @ When you walk, it will lead you; When you sleep, it will watch over you; And when you awake, it will talk with you.

updv@Proverbs:6:23 @ For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is a light; And reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

updv@Proverbs:6:24 @ To keep you from the evil woman, From the flattery of the foreigner's tongue.

updv@Proverbs:6:25 @ Don't lust after her beauty in your heart; Neither let her take you with her eyelids.

updv@Proverbs:6:26 @ For on account of a prostitute [a man is brought] to a piece of bread; And the adulteress hunts for the precious life.

updv@Proverbs:6:27 @ Can a man take fire in his bosom, And his clothes not be burned?

updv@Proverbs:6:28 @ Or can one walk on hot coals, And his feet not be scorched?

updv@Proverbs:6:29 @ So he who goes in to his fellow man's wife; Whoever has any sex with her will not be unpunished.

updv@Proverbs:6:30 @ Men do not despise a thief, if he steals To satisfy himself when he is hungry:

updv@Proverbs:6:31 @ But if he is found, he will restore sevenfold; He will give all the substance of his house.

updv@Proverbs:6:32 @ He who commits adultery with a woman is void of understanding: He who does it destroys his own soul.

updv@Proverbs:6:33 @ Wounds and dishonor he will get; And his reproach will not be wiped away.

updv@Proverbs:6:34 @ For jealousy is the rage of a [noble] man; And he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

updv@Proverbs:6:35 @ He will not regard any ransom; Neither will he rest content, though you give many gifts.

updv@Proverbs:7:1 @ My son, keep my words, And lay up my commandments with you.

updv@Proverbs:7:2 @ Keep my commandments and live; And my law as the apple of your eye.

updv@Proverbs:7:3 @ Bind them on your fingers; Write them on the tablet of your heart.

updv@Proverbs:7:4 @ Say to wisdom, You are my sister; And call understanding [your] kinswoman:

updv@Proverbs:7:5 @ That they may keep you from the strange woman, From the foreigner who flatters with her words.

updv@Proverbs:7:6 @ For at the window of my house I looked forth through my lattice;

updv@Proverbs:7:7 @ And I saw among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, A young man void of understanding,

updv@Proverbs:7:8 @ Passing through the street near her corner; And he went the way to her house,

updv@Proverbs:7:9 @ In the twilight, in the evening of the day, In the middle of the night and in the darkness.

updv@Proverbs:7:10 @ And, look, there met him a woman With the attire of a prostitute, and wily of heart.

updv@Proverbs:7:11 @ She is clamorous and willful; Her feet do not stay in her house:

updv@Proverbs:7:12 @ Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, And lies in wait at every corner.

updv@Proverbs:7:13 @ So she caught him, and kissed him, [And] with an impudent face she said to him:

updv@Proverbs:7:14 @ Sacrifices of peace-offerings are with me; This day I have paid my vows.

updv@Proverbs:7:15 @ Therefore I came forth to meet you, Diligently to seek your face, and I have found you.

updv@Proverbs:7:16 @ I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, With striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.

updv@Proverbs:7:17 @ I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

updv@Proverbs:7:18 @ Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; Let us solace ourselves with loves.

updv@Proverbs:7:19 @ For the man is not at home; He has gone on a long journey:

updv@Proverbs:7:20 @ He has taken a bag of money with him; He will come home at the full moon.

updv@Proverbs:7:21 @ With her much fair speech she causes him to yield; With the flattering of her lips she forces him along.

updv@Proverbs:7:22 @ He goes after her right away, As an ox goes to the slaughter, Or as [one in] fetters to the correction of the fool;

updv@Proverbs:7:23 @ Until an arrow strikes through his liver; As a bird hurries to the snare, And does not know that it is for his life.

updv@Proverbs:7:24 @ Now therefore, [my] sons, listen to me, And attend to the words of my mouth.

updv@Proverbs:7:25 @ Don't let your heart decline to her ways; Don't go astray in her paths.

updv@Proverbs:7:26 @ For she has cast down many wounded: Yes, all her slain are a mighty host.

updv@Proverbs:7:27 @ Her house is the way to Sheol, Going down to the chambers of death.

updv@Proverbs:8:1 @ Does not wisdom cry, And understanding put forth her voice?

updv@Proverbs:8:2 @ On the top of high places by the way, Where the paths meet, she stands;

updv@Proverbs:8:3 @ Beside the gates, at the entry of the city, At the coming in at the doors, she cries aloud:

updv@Proverbs:8:4 @ To you(note:){+}(:note), O men, I call; And my voice is to the sons of man.

updv@Proverbs:8:5 @ O you(note:){+}(:note) simple, understand prudence; And, you{+} fools, be of an understanding heart.

updv@Proverbs:8:6 @ Hear, for I will speak excellent things; And the opening of my lips will be right things.

updv@Proverbs:8:7 @ For my mouth will utter truth; And wickedness is disgusting to my lips.

updv@Proverbs:8:8 @ All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; There is nothing crooked or perverse in them.

updv@Proverbs:8:9 @ They are all plain to him who understands, And right to those who find knowledge.

updv@Proverbs:8:10 @ Receive my instruction, and not silver; And knowledge rather than choice gold.

updv@Proverbs:8:11 @ For wisdom is better than rubies; And all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

updv@Proverbs:8:12 @ I, wisdom, stay with prudence, And find out knowledge [and] discretion.

updv@Proverbs:8:13 @ The fear of Yahweh is to hate evil: Pride, and arrogance, and the evil way, And the perverse mouth, I hate.

updv@Proverbs:8:14 @ Counsel is mine, and sound knowledge: I am understanding; I have might.

updv@Proverbs:8:15 @ By me kings reign, And princes decree justice.

updv@Proverbs:8:16 @ By me princes rule, And nobles, [even] all those who govern righteously.

updv@Proverbs:8:17 @ I love those who love me; And those who seek me diligently will find me.

updv@Proverbs:8:18 @ Riches and honor are with me; [Yes], durable wealth and righteousness.

updv@Proverbs:8:19 @ My fruit is better than gold, yes, than fine gold; And my revenue than choice silver.

updv@Proverbs:8:20 @ I walk in the way of righteousness, In the midst of the paths of justice;

updv@Proverbs:8:21 @ That I may cause those who love me to inherit substance, And that I may fill their treasuries.

updv@Proverbs:8:22 @ Yahweh possessed me in the beginning of his way, Before his works of old.

updv@Proverbs:8:23 @ I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, Before the earth was.

updv@Proverbs:8:24 @ When there were no depths, I was brought forth, When there were no fountains abounding with water.

updv@Proverbs:8:25 @ Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills I was brought forth;

updv@Proverbs:8:26 @ While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, Nor the beginning of the dust of the world.

updv@Proverbs:8:27 @ When he established the heavens, I was there: When he set a circle on the face of the deep,

updv@Proverbs:8:28 @ When he made firm the skies above, When the fountains of the deep became strong,

updv@Proverbs:8:29 @ When he gave to the sea its bound, That the waters should not transgress his commandment, When he marked out the foundations of the earth;

updv@Proverbs:8:30 @ Then I was by him, [as] a master craftsman; And I was daily [his] delight, Rejoicing always before him,

updv@Proverbs:8:31 @ Rejoicing in his habitable earth; And my delight was with the sons of man.

updv@Proverbs:8:32 @ Now therefore, [my] sons, listen to me; For blessed are those who keep my ways.

updv@Proverbs:8:33 @ Hear instruction, and be wise, And don't refuse it.

updv@Proverbs:8:34 @ Blessed is [the] man who hears me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at the posts of my doors.

updv@Proverbs:8:35 @ For whoever finds me finds life, And will obtain favor of Yahweh.

updv@Proverbs:8:36 @ But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul: All those who hate me love death.

updv@Proverbs:9:1 @ Wisdom has built her house; She has cut out her seven pillars:

updv@Proverbs:9:2 @ She has killed her beasts; She has mingled her wine; She has also furnished her table:

updv@Proverbs:9:3 @ She has sent forth her maidens; She cries on the highest places of the city:

updv@Proverbs:9:4 @ Whoever is simple, let him turn in here: As for him who is void of understanding, she says to him,

updv@Proverbs:9:5 @ Come, eat(note:){+}(:note) of my bread, And drink of the wine which I have mingled.

updv@Proverbs:9:6 @ Leave off, you(note:){+}(:note) simple ones, and live; And walk in the way of understanding.

updv@Proverbs:9:7 @ He who corrects a scoffer gets to himself reviling; And he who reproves a wicked man [gets] himself a blot.

updv@Proverbs:9:8 @ Don't reprove a scoffer, or else he will hate you: Reprove a wise man, and he will love you.

updv@Proverbs:9:9 @ Give [instruction] to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: Teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.

updv@Proverbs:9:10 @ The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom; And knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

updv@Proverbs:9:11 @ For by me your days will be multiplied, And the years of your life will be increased.

updv@Proverbs:9:12 @ If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; And if you scoff, you alone will bear it.

updv@Proverbs:9:13 @ The foolish woman is clamorous; [She is] simple, and knows nothing.

updv@Proverbs:9:14 @ And she sits at the door of her house, On a seat in the high places of the city,

updv@Proverbs:9:15 @ To call to those who pass by, Who go right on their ways:

updv@Proverbs:9:16 @ Whoever is simple, let him turn in here; And as for him who is void of understanding, she says to him,

updv@Proverbs:9:17 @ Stolen waters are sweet, And bread [eaten] in secret is pleasant.

updv@Proverbs:9:18 @ But he does not know that the spirits of the dead are there; That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.
