Proverbs
Chapter 10
1 The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: but a
foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness
delivereth from death.
3 The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but
he casteth away the substance of the wicked.
4 He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of
the diligent maketh rich.
5 He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth
in harvest is a son that causeth shame.
6 Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth
the mouth of the wicked.
7 The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked
shall rot.
8 The wise in heart will receive commandments: but a prating fool
shall fall.
9 He that walketh uprightly walketh surely: but he that perverteth
his ways shall be known.
10 He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool
shall fall.
11 The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life: but violence
covereth the mouth of the wicked.
12 Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.
13 In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found: but
a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.
14 Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near
destruction.
15 The rich man's wealth is his strong city: the destruction of the
poor is their poverty.
16 The labour of the righteous tendeth to life: the fruit of the
wicked to sin.
17 He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that
refuseth reproof erreth.
18 He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a
slander, is a fool.
19 In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin: but he that
refraineth his lips is wise.
20 The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the
wicked is little worth.
21 The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of
wisdom.
22 The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no
sorrow with it.
23 It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of
understanding hath wisdom.
24 The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him: but the desire
of the righteous shall be granted.
25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the
righteous is an everlasting foundation.
26 As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the
sluggard to them that send him.
27 The fear of the LORD prolongeth days: but the years of the
wicked shall be shortened.
28 The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation
of the wicked shall perish.
29 The way of the LORD is strength to the upright: but destruction
shall be to the workers of iniquity.
30 The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not
inhabit the earth.
31 The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom: but the froward
tongue shall be cut out.
32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable: but the mouth
of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
