Job:5:17 @ "Behold, happy is the man whom God reproves; therefore despise not the chastening of the Almighty.
rsv@Job:6:25 @ How forceful are honest words! But what does reproof from you reprove?
rsv@Job:6:26 @ Do you think that you can reprove words, when the speech of a despairing man is wind?
rsv@Job:9:20 @ Though I am innocent, my own mouth would condemn me; though I am blameless, he would prove me perverse.
rsv@Job:13:12 @ Your maxims are proverbs of ashes, your defenses are defenses of clay.
rsv@Job:22:4 @ Is it for your fear of him that he reproves you, and enters into judgment with you?
rsv@Job:24:25 @ If it is not so, who will prove me a liar, and show that there is nothing in what I say?"
rsv@Job:29:11 @ When the ear heard, it called me blessed, and when the eye saw, it approved;
rsv@Psalms:18:31 @ This God--his way is perfect; the promise of the LORD proves true; he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.
rsv@Psalms:26:3 @ Prove me, O LORD, and try me; test my heart and my mind.
rsv@Psalms:49:5 @ I will incline my ear to a proverb; I will solve my riddle to the music of the lyre.
rsv@Psalms:50:9 @ I do not reprove you for your sacrifices; your burnt offerings are continually before me.
rsv@Proverbs:1:1 @ The proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel:
rsv@Proverbs:1:2 @ That men may know wisdom and instruction, understand words of insight,
rsv@Proverbs:1:3 @ receive instruction in wise dealing, righteousness, justice, and equity;
rsv@Proverbs:1:4 @ that prudence may be given to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the youth--
rsv@Proverbs:1:5 @ the wise man also may hear and increase in learning, and the man of understanding acquire skill,
rsv@Proverbs:1:6 @ to understand a proverb and a figure, the words of the wise and their riddles.
rsv@Proverbs:1:7 @ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction.
rsv@Proverbs:1:8 @ Hear, my son, your father's instruction, and reject not your mother's teaching;
rsv@Proverbs:1:9 @ for they are a fair garland for your head, and pendants for your neck.
rsv@Proverbs:1:10 @ My son, if sinners entice you, do not consent.
rsv@Proverbs:1:11 @ If they say, "Come with us, let us lie in wait for blood, let us wantonly ambush the innocent;
rsv@Proverbs:1:12 @ like Sheol let us swallow them alive and whole, like those who go down to the Pit;
rsv@Proverbs:1:13 @ we shall find all precious goods, we shall fill our houses with spoil;
rsv@Proverbs:1:14 @ throw in your lot among us, we will all have one purse"--
rsv@Proverbs:1:15 @ my son, do not walk in the way with them, hold back your foot from their paths;
rsv@Proverbs:1:16 @ for their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood.
rsv@Proverbs:1:17 @ For in vain is a net spread in the sight of any bird;
rsv@Proverbs:1:18 @ but these men lie in wait for their own blood, they set an ambush for their own lives.
rsv@Proverbs:1:19 @ Such are the ways of all who get gain by violence; it takes away the life of its possessors.
rsv@Proverbs:1:20 @ Wisdom cries aloud in the street; in the markets she raises her voice;
rsv@Proverbs:1:21 @ on the top of the walls she cries out; at the entrance of the city gates she speaks:
rsv@Proverbs:1:22 @ "How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple? How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing and fools hate knowledge?
rsv@Proverbs:1:23 @ Give heed to my reproof; behold, I will pour out my thoughts to you; I will make my words known to you.
rsv@Proverbs:1:24 @ Because I have called and you refused to listen, have stretched out my hand and no one has heeded,
rsv@Proverbs:1:25 @ and you have ignored all my counsel and would have none of my reproof,
rsv@Proverbs:1:26 @ I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when panic strikes you,
rsv@Proverbs:1:27 @ when panic strikes you like a storm, and your calamity comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you.
rsv@Proverbs:1:28 @ Then they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently but will not find me.
rsv@Proverbs:1:29 @ Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD,
rsv@Proverbs:1:30 @ would have none of my counsel, and despised all my reproof,
rsv@Proverbs:1:31 @ therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way and be sated with their own devices.
rsv@Proverbs:1:32 @ For the simple are killed by their turning away, and the complacence of fools destroys them;
rsv@Proverbs:1:33 @ but he who listens to me will dwell secure and will be at ease, without dread of evil."
rsv@Proverbs:2:1 @ My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you,
rsv@Proverbs:2:2 @ making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding;
rsv@Proverbs:2:3 @ yes, if you cry out for insight and raise your voice for understanding,
rsv@Proverbs:2:4 @ if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures;
rsv@Proverbs:2:5 @ then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God.
rsv@Proverbs:2:6 @ For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
rsv@Proverbs:2:7 @ he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity,
rsv@Proverbs:2:8 @ guarding the paths of justice and preserving the way of his saints.
rsv@Proverbs:2:9 @ Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity, every good path;
rsv@Proverbs:2:10 @ for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
rsv@Proverbs:2:11 @ discretion will watch over you; understanding will guard you;
rsv@Proverbs:2:12 @ delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech,
rsv@Proverbs:2:13 @ who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness,
rsv@Proverbs:2:14 @ who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil;
rsv@Proverbs:2:15 @ men whose paths are crooked, and who are devious in their ways.
rsv@Proverbs:2:16 @ You will be saved from the loose woman, from the adventuress with her smooth words,
rsv@Proverbs:2:17 @ who forsakes the companion of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God;
rsv@Proverbs:2:18 @ for her house sinks down to death, and her paths to the shades;
rsv@Proverbs:2:19 @ none who go to her come back nor do they regain the paths of life.
rsv@Proverbs:2:20 @ So you will walk in the way of good men and keep to the paths of the righteous.
rsv@Proverbs:2:21 @ For the upright will inhabit the land, and men of integrity will remain in it;
rsv@Proverbs:2:22 @ but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the treacherous will be rooted out of it.
rsv@Proverbs:3:1 @ My son, do not forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments;
rsv@Proverbs:3:2 @ for length of days and years of life and abundant welfare will they give you.
rsv@Proverbs:3:3 @ Let not loyalty and faithfulness forsake you; bind them about your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.
rsv@Proverbs:3:4 @ So you will find favor and good repute in the sight of God and man.
rsv@Proverbs:3:5 @ Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight.
rsv@Proverbs:3:6 @ In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
rsv@Proverbs:3:7 @ Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD, and turn away from evil.
rsv@Proverbs:3:8 @ It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones.
rsv@Proverbs:3:9 @ Honor the LORD with your substance and with the first fruits of all your produce;
rsv@Proverbs:3:10 @ then your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will be bursting with wine.
rsv@Proverbs:3:11 @ My son, do not despise the LORD's discipline or be weary of his reproof,
rsv@Proverbs:3:12 @ for the LORD reproves him whom he loves, as a father the son in whom he delights.
rsv@Proverbs:3:13 @ Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gets understanding,
rsv@Proverbs:3:14 @ for the gain from it is better than gain from silver and its profit better than gold.
rsv@Proverbs:3:15 @ She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her.
rsv@Proverbs:3:16 @ Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.
rsv@Proverbs:3:17 @ Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
rsv@Proverbs:3:18 @ She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called happy.
rsv@Proverbs:3:19 @ The LORD by wisdom founded the earth; by understanding he established the heavens;
rsv@Proverbs:3:20 @ by his knowledge the deeps broke forth, and the clouds drop down the dew.
rsv@Proverbs:3:21 @ My son, keep sound wisdom and discretion; let them not escape from your sight,
rsv@Proverbs:3:22 @ and they will be life for your soul and adornment for your neck.
rsv@Proverbs:3:23 @ Then you will walk on your way securely and your foot will not stumble.
rsv@Proverbs:3:24 @ If you sit down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.
rsv@Proverbs:3:25 @ Do not be afraid of sudden panic, or of the ruin of the wicked, when it comes;
rsv@Proverbs:3:26 @ for the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught.
rsv@Proverbs:3:27 @ Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it.
rsv@Proverbs:3:28 @ Do not say to your neighbor, "Go, and come again, tomorrow I will give it"--when you have it with you.
rsv@Proverbs:3:29 @ Do not plan evil against your neighbor who dwells trustingly beside you.
rsv@Proverbs:3:30 @ Do not contend with a man for no reason, when he has done you no harm.
rsv@Proverbs:3:31 @ Do not envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways;
rsv@Proverbs:3:32 @ for the perverse man is an abomination to the LORD, but the upright are in his confidence.
rsv@Proverbs:3:33 @ The LORD's curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the abode of the righteous.
rsv@Proverbs:3:34 @ Toward the scorners he is scornful, but to the humble he shows favor.
rsv@Proverbs:3:35 @ The wise will inherit honor, but fools get disgrace.
rsv@Proverbs:4:1 @ Hear, O sons, a father's instruction, and be attentive, that you may gain insight;
rsv@Proverbs:4:2 @ for I give you good precepts: do not forsake my teaching.
rsv@Proverbs:4:3 @ When I was a son with my father, tender, the only one in the sight of my mother,
rsv@Proverbs:4:4 @ he taught me, and said to me, "Let your heart hold fast my words; keep my commandments, and live;
rsv@Proverbs:4:5 @ do not forget, and do not turn away from the words of my mouth. Get wisdom; get insight.
rsv@Proverbs:4:6 @ Do not forsake her, and she will keep you; love her, and she will guard you.
rsv@Proverbs:4:7 @ The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom, and whatever you get, get insight.
rsv@Proverbs:4:8 @ Prize her highly, and she will exalt you; she will honor you if you embrace her.
rsv@Proverbs:4:9 @ She will place on your head a fair garland; she will bestow on you a beautiful crown."
rsv@Proverbs:4:10 @ Hear, my son, and accept my words, that the years of your life may be many.
rsv@Proverbs:4:11 @ I have taught you the way of wisdom; I have led you in the paths of uprightness.
rsv@Proverbs:4:12 @ When you walk, your step will not be hampered; and if you run, you will not stumble.
rsv@Proverbs:4:13 @ Keep hold of instruction, do not let go; guard her, for she is your life.
rsv@Proverbs:4:14 @ Do not enter the path of the wicked, and do not walk in the way of evil men.
rsv@Proverbs:4:15 @ Avoid it; do not go on it; turn away from it and pass on.
rsv@Proverbs:4:16 @ For they cannot sleep unless they have done wrong; they are robbed of sleep unless they have made some one stumble.
rsv@Proverbs:4:17 @ For they eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence.
rsv@Proverbs:4:18 @ But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, which shines brighter and brighter until full day.
rsv@Proverbs:4:19 @ The way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know over what they stumble.
rsv@Proverbs:4:20 @ My son, be attentive to my words; incline your ear to my sayings.
rsv@Proverbs:4:21 @ Let them not escape from your sight; keep them within your heart.
rsv@Proverbs:4:22 @ For they are life to him who finds them, and healing to all his flesh.
rsv@Proverbs:4:23 @ Keep your heart with all vigilance; for from it flow the springs of life.
rsv@Proverbs:4:24 @ Put away from you crooked speech, and put devious talk far from you.
rsv@Proverbs:4:25 @ Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you.
rsv@Proverbs:4:26 @ Take heed to the path of your feet, then all your ways will be sure.
rsv@Proverbs:4:27 @ Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your foot away from evil.
rsv@Proverbs:5:1 @ My son, be attentive to my wisdom, incline your ear to my understanding;
rsv@Proverbs:5:2 @ that you may keep discretion, and your lips may guard knowledge.
rsv@Proverbs:5:3 @ For the lips of a loose woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil;
rsv@Proverbs:5:4 @ but in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.
rsv@Proverbs:5:5 @ Her feet go down to death; her steps follow the path to Sheol;
rsv@Proverbs:5:6 @ she does not take heed to the path of life; her ways wander, and she does not know it.
rsv@Proverbs:5:7 @ And now, O sons, listen to me, and do not depart from the words of my mouth.
rsv@Proverbs:5:8 @ Keep your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house;
rsv@Proverbs:5:9 @ lest you give your honor to others and your years to the merciless;
rsv@Proverbs:5:10 @ lest strangers take their fill of your strength, and your labors go to the house of an alien;
rsv@Proverbs:5:11 @ and at the end of your life you groan, when your flesh and body are consumed,
rsv@Proverbs:5:12 @ and you say, "How I hated discipline, and my heart despised reproof!
rsv@Proverbs:5:13 @ I did not listen to the voice of my teachers or incline my ear to my instructors.
rsv@Proverbs:5:14 @ I was at the point of utter ruin in the assembled congregation."
rsv@Proverbs:5:15 @ Drink water from your own cistern, flowing water from your own well.
rsv@Proverbs:5:16 @ Should your springs be scattered abroad, streams of water in the streets?
rsv@Proverbs:5:17 @ Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you.
rsv@Proverbs:5:18 @ Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
rsv@Proverbs:5:19 @ a lovely hind, a graceful doe. Let her affection fill you at all times with delight, be infatuated always with her love.
rsv@Proverbs:5:20 @ Why should you be infatuated, my son, with a loose woman and embrace the bosom of an adventuress?
rsv@Proverbs:5:21 @ For a man's ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and he watches all his paths.
rsv@Proverbs:5:22 @ The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is caught in the toils of his sin.
rsv@Proverbs:5:23 @ He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is lost.
rsv@Proverbs:6:1 @ My son, if you have become surety for your neighbor, have given your pledge for a stranger;
rsv@Proverbs:6:2 @ if you are snared in the utterance of your lips, caught in the words of your mouth;
rsv@Proverbs:6:3 @ then do this, my son, and save yourself, for you have come into your neighbor's power: go, hasten, and importune your neighbor.
rsv@Proverbs:6:4 @ Give your eyes no sleep and your eyelids no slumber;
rsv@Proverbs:6:5 @ save yourself like a gazelle from the hunter, like a bird from the hand of the fowler.
rsv@Proverbs:6:6 @ Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.
rsv@Proverbs:6:7 @ Without having any chief, officer or ruler,
rsv@Proverbs:6:8 @ she prepares her food in summer, and gathers her sustenance in harvest.
rsv@Proverbs:6:9 @ How long will you lie there, O sluggard? When will you arise from your sleep?
rsv@Proverbs:6:10 @ A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,
rsv@Proverbs:6:11 @ and poverty will come upon you like a vagabond, and want like an armed man.
rsv@Proverbs:6:12 @ A worthless person, a wicked man, goes about with crooked speech,
rsv@Proverbs:6:13 @ winks with his eyes, scrapes with his feet, points with his finger,
rsv@Proverbs:6:14 @ with perverted heart devises evil, continually sowing discord;
rsv@Proverbs:6:15 @ therefore calamity will come upon him suddenly; in a moment he will be broken beyond healing.
rsv@Proverbs:6:16 @ There are six things which the LORD hates, seven which are an abomination to him:
rsv@Proverbs:6:17 @ haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
rsv@Proverbs:6:18 @ a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil,
rsv@Proverbs:6:19 @ a false witness who breathes out lies, and a man who sows discord among brothers.
rsv@Proverbs:6:20 @ My son, keep your father's commandment, and forsake not your mother's teaching.
rsv@Proverbs:6:21 @ Bind them upon your heart always; tie them about your neck.
rsv@Proverbs:6:22 @ When you walk, they will lead you; when you lie down, they will watch over you; and when you awake, they will talk with you.
rsv@Proverbs:6:23 @ For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching a light, and the reproofs of discipline are the way of life,
rsv@Proverbs:6:24 @ to preserve you from the evil woman, from the smooth tongue of the adventuress.
rsv@Proverbs:6:25 @ Do not desire her beauty in your heart, and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes;
rsv@Proverbs:6:26 @ for a harlot may be hired for a loaf of bread, but an adulteress stalks a man's very life.
rsv@Proverbs:6:27 @ Can a man carry fire in his bosom and his clothes not be burned?
rsv@Proverbs:6:28 @ Or can one walk upon hot coals and his feet not be scorched?
rsv@Proverbs:6:29 @ So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife; none who touches her will go unpunished.
rsv@Proverbs:6:30 @ Do not men despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his appetite when he is hungry?
rsv@Proverbs:6:31 @ And if he is caught, he will pay sevenfold; he will give all the goods of his house.
rsv@Proverbs:6:32 @ He who commits adultery has no sense; he who does it destroys himself.
rsv@Proverbs:6:33 @ Wounds and dishonor will he get, and his disgrace will not be wiped away.
rsv@Proverbs:6:34 @ For jealousy makes a man furious, and he will not spare when he takes revenge.
rsv@Proverbs:6:35 @ He will accept no compensation, nor be appeased though you multiply gifts.
rsv@Proverbs:7:1 @ My son, keep my words and treasure up my commandments with you;
rsv@Proverbs:7:2 @ keep my commandments and live, keep my teachings as the apple of your eye;
rsv@Proverbs:7:3 @ bind them on your fingers, write them on the tablet of your heart.
rsv@Proverbs:7:4 @ Say to wisdom, "You are my sister," and call insight your intimate friend;
rsv@Proverbs:7:5 @ to preserve you from the loose woman, from the adventuress with her smooth words.
rsv@Proverbs:7:6 @ For at the window of my house I have looked out through my lattice,
rsv@Proverbs:7:7 @ and I have seen among the simple, I have perceived among the youths, a young man without sense,
rsv@Proverbs:7:8 @ passing along the street near her corner, taking the road to her house
rsv@Proverbs:7:9 @ in the twilight, in the evening, at the time of night and darkness.
rsv@Proverbs:7:10 @ And lo, a woman meets him, dressed as a harlot, wily of heart.
rsv@Proverbs:7:11 @ She is loud and wayward, her feet do not stay at home;
rsv@Proverbs:7:12 @ now in the street, now in the market, and at every corner she lies in wait.
rsv@Proverbs:7:13 @ She seizes him and kisses him, and with impudent face she says to him:
rsv@Proverbs:7:14 @ "I had to offer sacrifices, and today I have paid my vows;
rsv@Proverbs:7:15 @ so now I have come out to meet you, to seek you eagerly, and I have found you.
rsv@Proverbs:7:16 @ I have decked my couch with coverings, colored spreads of Egyptian linen;
rsv@Proverbs:7:17 @ I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
rsv@Proverbs:7:18 @ Come, let us take our fill of love till morning; let us delight ourselves with love.
rsv@Proverbs:7:19 @ For my husband is not at home; he has gone on a long journey;
rsv@Proverbs:7:20 @ he took a bag of money with him; at full moon he will come home."
rsv@Proverbs:7:21 @ With much seductive speech she persuades him; with her smooth talk she compels him.
rsv@Proverbs:7:22 @ All at once he follows her, as an ox goes to the slaughter, or as a stag is caught fast
rsv@Proverbs:7:23 @ till an arrow pierces its entrails; as a bird rushes into a snare; he does not know that it will cost him his life.
rsv@Proverbs:7:24 @ And now, O sons, listen to me, and be attentive to the words of my mouth.
rsv@Proverbs:7:25 @ Let not your heart turn aside to her ways, do not stray into her paths;
rsv@Proverbs:7:26 @ for many a victim has she laid low; yea, all her slain are a mighty host.
rsv@Proverbs:7:27 @ Her house is the way to Sheol, going down to the chambers of death.
rsv@Proverbs:8:1 @ Does not wisdom call, does not understanding raise her voice?
rsv@Proverbs:8:2 @ On the heights beside the way, in the paths she takes her stand;
rsv@Proverbs:8:3 @ beside the gates in front of the town, at the entrance of the portals she cries aloud:
rsv@Proverbs:8:4 @ "To you, O men, I call, and my cry is to the sons of men.
rsv@Proverbs:8:5 @ O simple ones, learn prudence; O foolish men, pay attention.
rsv@Proverbs:8:6 @ Hear, for I will speak noble things, and from my lips will come what is right;
rsv@Proverbs:8:7 @ for my mouth will utter truth; wickedness is an abomination to my lips.
rsv@Proverbs:8:8 @ All the words of my mouth are righteous; there is nothing twisted or crooked in them.
rsv@Proverbs:8:9 @ They are all straight to him who understands and right to those who find knowledge.
rsv@Proverbs:8:10 @ Take my instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than choice gold;
rsv@Proverbs:8:11 @ for wisdom is better than jewels, and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.
rsv@Proverbs:8:12 @ I, wisdom, dwell in prudence, and I find knowledge and discretion.
rsv@Proverbs:8:13 @ The fear of the LORD is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate.
rsv@Proverbs:8:14 @ I have counsel and sound wisdom, I have insight, I have strength.
rsv@Proverbs:8:15 @ By me kings reign, and rulers decree what is just;
rsv@Proverbs:8:16 @ by me princes rule, and nobles govern the earth.
rsv@Proverbs:8:17 @ I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me.
rsv@Proverbs:8:18 @ Riches and honor are with me, enduring wealth and prosperity.
rsv@Proverbs:8:19 @ My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold, and my yield than choice silver.
rsv@Proverbs:8:20 @ I walk in the way of righteousness, in the paths of justice,
rsv@Proverbs:8:21 @ endowing with wealth those who love me, and filling their treasuries.
rsv@Proverbs:8:22 @ The LORD created me at the beginning of his work, the first of his acts of old.
rsv@Proverbs:8:23 @ Ages ago I was set up, at the first, before the beginning of the earth.
rsv@Proverbs:8:24 @ When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water.
rsv@Proverbs:8:25 @ Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth;
rsv@Proverbs:8:26 @ before he had made the earth with its fields, or the first of the dust of the world.
rsv@Proverbs:8:27 @ When he established the heavens, I was there, when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,
rsv@Proverbs:8:28 @ when he made firm the skies above, when he established the fountains of the deep,
rsv@Proverbs:8:29 @ when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth,
rsv@Proverbs:8:30 @ then I was beside him, like a master workman; and I was daily his delight, rejoicing before him always,
rsv@Proverbs:8:31 @ rejoicing in his inhabited world and delighting in the sons of men.
rsv@Proverbs:8:32 @ And now, my sons, listen to me: happy are those who keep my ways.
rsv@Proverbs:8:33 @ Hear instruction and be wise, and do not neglect it.
rsv@Proverbs:8:34 @ Happy is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting beside my doors.
rsv@Proverbs:8:35 @ For he who finds me finds life and obtains favor from the LORD;
rsv@Proverbs:8:36 @ but he who misses me injures himself; all who hate me love death."
rsv@Proverbs:9:1 @ Wisdom has built her house, she has set up her seven pillars.
rsv@Proverbs:9:2 @ She has slaughtered her beasts, she has mixed her wine, she has also set her table.
rsv@Proverbs:9:3 @ She has sent out her maids to call from the highest places in the town,
