New Revised Standard Version Help
24Do not envy the wicked, nor desire to be with them;H7065H7451H582H183 2for their minds devise violence, and their lips talk of mischief.H3820H1897H7701H8193H1696H5999 3By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established;H2451H1004H1129H8394H3559 4by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches.H1847H2315H4390H3368H5273H1952 5Wise warriors are mightier than strong ones, and those who have knowledge than those who have strength;H2450H1397H5797H376H1847H553H3581 6for by wise guidance you can wage your war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory.H8458H6213H4421H7230H3289H8668 7Wisdom is too high for fools; in the gate they do not open their mouths.H2454H7311H191H6605H6310H8179 8Whoever plans to do evil will be called a mischief-maker.H2803H7489H7121H4209H1167 9The devising of folly is sin, and the scoffer is an abomination to all.H2154H200H2403H3887H8441H120 10If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength being small;H7503H3117H6869H3581H6862 11if you hold back from rescuing those taken away to death, those who go staggering to the slaughter;H2820H5337H3947H4194H4131H2027 12if you say, "Look, we did not know this"—does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it? And will he not repay all according to their deeds?H559H3045H8505H3826H995H5341H5315H3045H7725H120H6467 13My child, eat honey, for it is good, and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste.H1121H398H1706H2896H5317H4966H2441 14Know that wisdom is such to your soul; if you find it, you will find a future, and your hope will not be cut off.H3045H2451H5315H4672H3426H319H8615H3772 15Do not lie in wait like an outlaw against the home of the righteous; do no violence to the place where the righteous live;H693H7563H5116H6662H7703H7258 16for though they fall seven times, they will rise again; but the wicked are overthrown by calamity.H6662H5307H7651H6965H7563H3782H7451 17Do not rejoice when your enemies fall, and do not let your heart be glad when they stumble,H8055H341H5307H3820H1523H3782 18or else the LORD will see it and be displeased, and turn away his anger from them.H3068H7200H7489H5869H7725H639 19Do not fret because of evildoers. Do not envy the wicked;H2734H7489H7065H7563 20for the evil have no future; the lamp of the wicked will go out.H319H7451H5216H7563H1846 21My child, fear the LORD and the king, and do not disobey either of them;H1121H3372H3068H4428H6148H8138 22for disaster comes from them suddenly, and who knows the ruin that both can bring?H343H6965H6597H3045H6365H8147 23These also are sayings of the wise: Partiality in judging is not good.H2450H2896H5234H6440H4941 24Whoever says to the wicked, "You are innocent," will be cursed by peoples, abhorred by nations;H559H7563H6662H5971H5344H3816H2194 25but those who rebuke the wicked will have delight, and a good blessing will come upon them.H3198H5276H2896H1293H935 26One who gives an honest answer gives a kiss on the lips.H5401H8193H7725H5228H1697 27Prepare your work outside, get everything ready for you in the field; and after that build your house.H3559H4399H2351H6257H7704H310H1129H1004 28Do not be a witness against your neighbor without cause, and do not deceive with your lips.H5707H7453H2600H6601H8193 29Do not say, "I will do to others as they have done to me; I will pay them back for what they have done."H559H6213H6213H7725H376H6467 30I passed by the field of one who was lazy, by the vineyard of a stupid person;H5674H7704H376H6102H3754H120H2638H3820 31and see, it was all overgrown with thorns; the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down.H5927H7063H2738H3680H6440H68H1444H2040 32Then I saw and considered it; I looked and received instruction.H2372H7896H3820H7200H3947H4148 33A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest,H4592H8142H4592H8572H4592H2264H3027H7901 34and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want, like an armed warrior.H7389H935H1980H4270H4043H376
