Proverbs 22
New International Version (1984) Help
22A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.H8034H977H7227H6239H2896H2580H3701H2091 2Rich and poor have this in common: The LORD is the Maker of them all.H6223H7326H6298H3068H6213 3A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.H6175H7200H7451H5641H5641H6612H5674H6064 4Humility and the fear of the LORD bring wealth and honor and life.H6118H6038H3374H3068H6239H3519H2416 5In the paths of the wicked lie thorns and snares, but he who guards his soul stays far from them.H6791H6341H1870H6141H8104H5315H7368 6Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.H2596H5288H1870H6310H2204H5493 7The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.H6223H4910H7326H3867H5650H376H3867 8He who sows wickedness reaps trouble, and the rod of his fury will be destroyed.H2232H5766H7114H205H7626H5678H3615 9A generous man will himself be blessed, for he shares his food with the poor.H2896H5869H1288H5414H3899H1800 10Drive out the mocker, and out goes strife; quarrels and insults are ended.H1644H3887H4066H3318H1779H7036H7673 11He who loves a pure heart and whose speech is gracious will have the king for his friend.H157H2890H2889H3820H2580H8193H4428H7453 12The eyes of the LORD keep watch over knowledge, but he frustrates the words of the unfaithful.H5869H3068H5341H1847H5557H1697H898 13The sluggard says, "There is a lion outside!" or, "I will be murdered in the streets!"H6102H559H738H2351H7523H8432H7339 14The mouth of an adulteress is a deep pit; he who is under the LORD'S wrath will fall into it.H6310H2114H6013H7745H2194H3068H5307 15Folly is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline will drive it far from him.H200H7194H3820H5288H7626H4148H7368 16He who oppresses the poor to increase his wealth and he who gives gifts to the rich--both come to poverty.H6231H1800H7235H5414H6223H4270 17Pay attention and listen to the sayings of the wise; apply your heart to what I teach,H5186H241H8085H1697H2450H7896H3820H1847 18for it is pleasing when you keep them in your heart and have all of them ready on your lips.H5273H8104H990H3162H3559H8193 19So that your trust may be in the LORD, I teach you today, even you.H4009H3068H3045H3117 20Have I not written thirty sayings for you, sayings of counsel and knowledge,H3789H8032H7991H4156H1847 21teaching you true and reliable words, so that you can give sound answers to him who sent you?H3045H7189H561H571H7725H561H571H7971 22Do not exploit the poor because they are poor and do not crush the needy in court,H1497H1800H1800H1792H6041H8179 23for the LORD will take up their case and will plunder those who plunder them.H3068H7378H7379H6906H5315H6906 24Do not make friends with a hot-tempered man, do not associate with one easily angered,H7462H639H1167H2534H376H935 25or you may learn his ways and get yourself ensnared.H502H734H3947H4170H5315 26Do not be a man who strikes hands in pledge or puts up security for debts;H8628H3709H6148H4859 27if you lack the means to pay, your very bed will be snatched from under you.H7999H3947H4904 28Do not move an ancient boundary stone set up by your forefathers.H5253H5769H1366H1H6213 29Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve before kings; he will not serve before obscure men.H2372H376H4106H4399H3320H6440H4428H3320H6440H2823
