acv@Proverbs:4:22 @ For they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh.
acv@Proverbs:4:23 @ Keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.
acv@Proverbs:4:24 @ Put away from thee a wayward mouth, and put perverse lips far from thee.
acv@Proverbs:4:25 @ Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
acv@Proverbs:4:26 @ Make the path of thy feet level, and let all thy ways be established.
acv@Proverbs:4:27 @ Turn not to the right hand nor to the left. Remove thy foot from evil.
acv@Proverbs:5:1 @ My son, attend to my wisdom. Incline thine ear to my understanding,
acv@Proverbs:5:2 @ that thou may preserve discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge.
acv@Proverbs:5:3 @ For the lips of an interloping woman drop honey, and her mouth is smoother than oil.
acv@Proverbs:5:4 @ But in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.
acv@Proverbs:5:5 @ Her feet go down to death. Her steps take hold on Sheol,
acv@Proverbs:5:6 @ so that she does not find the level path of life. Her ways are unstable, [and] she does not know.
acv@Proverbs:5:7 @ Now therefore, ye sons, hearken to me, and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
acv@Proverbs:5:8 @ Remove thy way far from her, and do not come near the door of her house,
acv@Proverbs:5:9 @ lest thou give thine honor to others, and thy years to the cruel,
acv@Proverbs:5:10 @ lest strangers be filled with thy strength, and thy labors [be] in the house of an alien,
acv@Proverbs:5:11 @ and thou mourn at thy latter end when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,
acv@Proverbs:5:12 @ and say, How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof.
acv@Proverbs:5:13 @ Neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined my ear to those who instructed me!
acv@Proverbs:5:14 @ I was almost in all evil in the midst of the assembly and congregation.
acv@Proverbs:5:15 @ Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
acv@Proverbs:5:16 @ Should thy springs be dispersed abroad, and streams of water in the streets?
acv@Proverbs:5:17 @ Let them be for thyself alone, and not for strangers with thee.
acv@Proverbs:5:18 @ Let thy fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of thy youth:
acv@Proverbs:5:19 @ a loving hind and a pleasant doe. Let her breasts satisfy thee at all times, and be thou ravished always with her love.
acv@Proverbs:5:20 @ For why should thou, my son, be ravished with an interloping woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
acv@Proverbs:5:21 @ For the ways of man are before the eyes of LORD, and he makes level all his paths.
acv@Proverbs:5:22 @ His own iniquities shall take a wicked man, and he shall be held with the cords of his sin.
acv@Proverbs:5:23 @ He shall die for lack of instruction. And in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.
acv@Proverbs:6:1 @ My son, if thou have become surety for thy neighbor, if thou have struck thy hands for a stranger,
acv@Proverbs:6:2 @ thou are snared with the words of thy mouth, thou are taken with the words of thy mouth.
acv@Proverbs:6:3 @ Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself, since thou have come into the hand of thy neighbor. Go, humble thyself, and importune thy neighbor.
acv@Proverbs:6:4 @ Do not give sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.
acv@Proverbs:6:5 @ Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
acv@Proverbs:6:6 @ Go to the ant, thou sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise.
acv@Proverbs:6:7 @ Which, having no chief, overseer, or ruler,
acv@Proverbs:6:8 @ provides her bread in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.
acv@Proverbs:6:9 @ How long will thou sleep, O sluggard? When will thou arise out of thy sleep?
acv@Proverbs:6:10 @ A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep,
acv@Proverbs:6:11 @ so thy poverty shall come as a robber, and thy want as an armed man.
acv@Proverbs:6:12 @ A worthless person, a man of iniquity, is he who walks with a perverse mouth,
acv@Proverbs:6:13 @ who winks with his eyes, who speaks with his feet, who makes signs with his fingers,
acv@Proverbs:6:14 @ in whose heart is perverseness, who devises evil continually, who sows discord.
acv@Proverbs:6:15 @ Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly. Suddenly he shall be broken, and that without remedy.
acv@Proverbs:6:16 @ There are six things which LORD hates, yea, seven which are an abomination to him:
acv@Proverbs:6:17 @ haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
acv@Proverbs:6:18 @ a heart that devises wicked purposes, feet that are swift in running to mischief,
acv@Proverbs:6:19 @ a FALSE witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers.
acv@Proverbs:6:20 @ My son, keep the commandment of thy father, and do not forsake the law of thy mother.
acv@Proverbs:6:21 @ Bind them continually upon thy heart. Tie them about thy neck.
acv@Proverbs:6:22 @ When thou walk, it shall lead thee. When thou sleep, it shall watch over thee. And when thou awake, it shall talk with thee.
acv@Proverbs:6:23 @ For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light, and reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
acv@Proverbs:6:24 @ to keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the stranger's tongue.
acv@Proverbs:6:25 @ Do not lust after her beauty in thy heart, nor let her take thee with her eyelids.
acv@Proverbs:6:26 @ For the price of a harlot is as much as a piece of bread, but the adulteress hunts for the precious life.
acv@Proverbs:6:27 @ Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
acv@Proverbs:6:28 @ Or can a man walk upon hot coals, and his feet not be scorched?
acv@Proverbs:6:29 @ So [is] he who goes in to his neighbor's wife. Whoever touches her shall not be unpunished.
acv@Proverbs:6:30 @ Men do not despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry.
acv@Proverbs:6:31 @ Yet if he is found, he shall restore sevenfold. He shall give all the substance of his house.
acv@Proverbs:6:32 @ He who commits adultery with a woman is void of understanding. He who would destroy his own soul does it.
acv@Proverbs:6:33 @ Wounds and dishonor he shall get, and his reproach shall not be wiped away.
acv@Proverbs:6:34 @ For jealousy is a man's fury, and he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
acv@Proverbs:6:35 @ He will not regard any ransom, nor will he be satisfied, though thou give many gifts.
acv@Proverbs:7:1 @ My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
acv@Proverbs:7:2 @ Keep my commandments and live, and my law as the apple of thine eye.
acv@Proverbs:7:3 @ Bind them upon thy fingers. Write them upon the tablet of thy heart.
acv@Proverbs:7:4 @ Say to wisdom, Thou are my sister, and call understanding [thy] kinswoman,
acv@Proverbs:7:5 @ that they may keep thee from the interloping woman, from the stranger who flatters with her words.
acv@Proverbs:7:6 @ For at the window of my house I looked forth through my lattice,
acv@Proverbs:7:7 @ and I beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding
acv@Proverbs:7:8 @ passing through the street near her corner. And he went the way to her house,
acv@Proverbs:7:9 @ in the twilight, in the evening of the day, in the middle of the night and in the darkness.
acv@Proverbs:7:10 @ And, behold, there met him a woman attired like a harlot, and wily of heart.
acv@Proverbs:7:11 @ She is loud and headstrong. Her feet abide not in her house.
acv@Proverbs:7:12 @ Now she is in the streets, now in the broad places, and lays in wait at every corner.
acv@Proverbs:7:13 @ So she caught him, and kissed him. With an impudent face she said to him,
acv@Proverbs:7:14 @ Sacrifices of peace-offerings are with me. I have paid my vows this day.
acv@Proverbs:7:15 @ Therefore I came forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee.
acv@Proverbs:7:16 @ I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, with striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.
acv@Proverbs:7:17 @ I have perfumed my bed With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
acv@Proverbs:7:18 @ Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning. Let us solace ourselves with love.
acv@Proverbs:7:19 @ For the man is not at home. He has gone a long journey.
acv@Proverbs:7:20 @ He has taken a bag of money with him. He will come home at the full moon.
acv@Proverbs:7:21 @ With her much fair speech she causes him to yield. With the flattering of her lips she forces him along.
acv@Proverbs:7:22 @ He goes after her straightaway, as an ox goes to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks,
acv@Proverbs:7:23 @ till an arrow strikes through his liver, as a bird hastens to the snare. And he does not know that it is for his life.
acv@Proverbs:7:24 @ Now therefore, ye sons, hearken to me, and attend to the words of my mouth.
acv@Proverbs:7:25 @ Let not thy heart decline to her ways. Go not astray in her paths.
acv@Proverbs:7:26 @ For she has cast down many wounded. Yea, all her slain are a mighty host.
acv@Proverbs:7:27 @ Her house is the way to Sheol, going down to the chambers of death.
acv@Proverbs:8:1 @ Does not wisdom cry out, and understanding put forth her voice?
acv@Proverbs:8:2 @ On the top of high places by the way, where the paths meet, she stands.
acv@Proverbs:8:3 @ Beside the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors, she cries aloud:
acv@Proverbs:8:4 @ To you, O men, I call. And my voice is to the sons of men.
acv@Proverbs:8:5 @ O ye simple, understand prudence, and, ye fools, be of an understanding heart.
acv@Proverbs:8:6 @ Hear, for I will speak excellent things. And the opening of my lips shall be right things.
acv@Proverbs:8:7 @ For my mouth shall utter truth. And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
acv@Proverbs:8:8 @ All the words of my mouth are in righteousness. There is nothing crooked or perverse in them.
acv@Proverbs:8:9 @ They are all plain to him who understands, and right to those who find knowledge.
acv@Proverbs:8:10 @ Receive my instruction, and not silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold.
acv@Proverbs:8:11 @ For wisdom is better than rubies, and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
acv@Proverbs:8:12 @ I, wisdom, have made prudence my dwelling, and find out knowledge [and] discretion.
acv@Proverbs:8:13 @ The fear of LORD is to hate evil. Pride, and arrogance, and the evil way, and the perverse mouth, do I hate.
acv@Proverbs:8:14 @ Counsel is mine, and sound knowledge. I am understanding, I have might.
acv@Proverbs:8:15 @ By me kings reign, and rulers decree justice.
acv@Proverbs:8:16 @ By me rulers rule, and ranking men, [even] all the judges of the earth.
acv@Proverbs:8:17 @ I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently shall find me.
acv@Proverbs:8:18 @ Riches and honor are with me, durable wealth and righteousness.
acv@Proverbs:8:19 @ My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold, and my revenue than choice silver.
acv@Proverbs:8:20 @ I walk in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of justice,
acv@Proverbs:8:21 @ that I may cause those who love me to inherit substance, and that I may fill their treasuries.
acv@Proverbs:8:22 @ LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
acv@Proverbs:8:23 @ I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, before the earth was,
acv@Proverbs:8:24 @ when there were no depths. I was brought forth when there were no fountains abounding with water,
acv@Proverbs:8:25 @ before the mountains were settled, before the hills. I was brought forth
acv@Proverbs:8:26 @ while as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the beginning of the dust of the world.
acv@Proverbs:8:27 @ When he established the heavens, I was there. When he set a circle upon the face of the deep,
acv@Proverbs:8:28 @ when he made firm the skies above, when the fountains of the deep became strong,
acv@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,
acv@Proverbs:8:30 @ then I was by him, a master workman. And I was daily [his] delight, rejoicing always before him,
acv@Proverbs:8:31 @ rejoicing in his habitable earth. And my delight was with the sons of men.
acv@Proverbs:8:32 @ Now therefore, ye sons, hearken to me. For blessed are those who keep my ways.
acv@Proverbs:8:33 @ Hear instruction, and be wise, and do not refuse it.
acv@Proverbs:8:34 @ Blessed is the man who hears me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
