1The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel;H4912H8010H1121H1732H4428H34782To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding;H3045H2451H4148H995H561H9983To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;H3947H4148H7919H6664H4941H43394To give subtilty to the simple, to the young man knowledge and discretion.H5414H6195H6612H5288H1847H42095A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:H2450H8085H3254H3948H995H7069H84586To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings.H995H4912H4426H1697H2450H24207The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.H3374H3068H7225H1847H191H936H2451H41488My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:H1121H8085H4148H1H5203H8451H5179For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.H3880H2580H7218H6060H162110My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not.H1121H2400H6601H1411If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:H559H3212H693H1818H6845H5355H260012Let us swallow them up alive as the grave; and whole, as those that go down into the pit:H1104H2416H7585H8549H3381H95313We shall find all precious substance, we shall fill our houses with spoil:H4672H3368H1952H4390H1004H799814Cast in thy lot among us; let us all have one purse:H5307H1486H8432H259H359915My son, walk not thou in the way with them; refrain thy foot from their path:H1121H3212H1870H4513H7272H541016For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.H7272H7323H7451H4116H8210H181817Surely in vain the net is spread in the sight of any bird.H2600H7568H2219H5869H1167H367118And they lay wait for their own blood; they lurk privily for their own lives.H693H1818H6845H531519So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; which taketh away the life of the owners thereof.H734H1214H1215H3947H5315H116720Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:H2454H7442H2351H5414H6963H733921She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,H7121H7218H1993H6607H8179H5892H559H56122How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?H6612H157H6612H3887H2530H3944H3684H8130H184723Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.H7725H8433H5042H7307H3045H169724Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;H7121H3985H5186H3027H718125But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:H6544H6098H14H843326I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;H7832H343H3932H6343H93527When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.H6343H935H7722H7584H343H857H5492H6869H6695H93528Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:H7121H6030H7836H467229For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:H8130H1847H977H3374H306830They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.H14H6098H5006H843331Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.H398H6529H1870H7646H415632For the turning away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall destroy them.H4878H6612H2026H7962H3684H633But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.H8085H7931H983H7599H6343H7451
