The proverbsH4912 of SolomonH8010 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732, kingH4428 of IsraelH3478;
To knowH3045 wisdomH2451 and instructionH4148; to perceiveH995 the wordsH561 of understandingH998;
To receiveH3947 the instructionH4148 of wisdomH7919, justiceH6664, and judgmentH4941, and equityH4339; {equity: Heb. equities}
To giveH5414 subtiltyH6195 to the simpleH6612, to the young manH5288 knowledgeH1847 and discretionH4209. {discretion: or, advisement}
A wiseH2450 man will hearH8085, and will increaseH3254 learningH3948; and a man of understandingH995 shall attainH7069 unto wise counselsH8458:
To understandH995 a proverbH4912, and the interpretationH4426; the wordsH1697 of the wiseH2450, and their dark sayingsH2420. {the interpretation: or, an eloquent speech}
The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 is the beginningH7225 of knowledgeH1847: but foolsH191 despiseH936 wisdomH2451 and instructionH4148. {the beginning: or, the principal part}
My sonH1121, hearH8085 the instructionH4148 of thy fatherH1, and forsakeH5203 not the lawH8451 of thy motherH517:
For they shall be an ornamentH3880 of graceH2580 unto thy headH7218, and chainsH6060 about thy neckH1621. {an…: Heb. an adding}
My sonH1121, if sinnersH2400 enticeH6601 thee, consentH14 thou not.
If they sayH559, ComeH3212 with us, let us lay waitH693 for bloodH1818, let us lurkH6845 privily for the innocentH5355 without causeH2600:
Let us swallow them upH1104 aliveH2416 as the graveH7585; and wholeH8549, as those that go downH3381 into the pitH953:
We shall findH4672 all preciousH3368 substanceH1952, we shall fillH4390 our housesH1004 with spoilH7998:
CastH5307 in thy lotH1486 amongH8432 us; let us all have oneH259 purseH3599:
My sonH1121, walkH3212 not thou in the wayH1870 with them; refrainH4513 thy footH7272 from their pathH5410:
For their feetH7272 runH7323 to evilH7451, and make hasteH4116 to shedH8210 bloodH1818.
Surely in vainH2600 the netH7568 is spreadH2219 in the sightH5869 of any birdH1167+H3671. {in the…: Heb. in the eyes of every thing that hath a wing}
And they lay waitH693 for their own bloodH1818; they lurk privilyH6845 for their own livesH5315.
So are the waysH734 of every one that is greedyH1214 of gainH1215; which taketh awayH3947 the lifeH5315 of the ownersH1167 thereof.
WisdomH2454 criethH7442 withoutH2351; she utterethH5414 her voiceH6963 in the streetsH7339: {Wisdom: Heb. Wisdoms, that is, Excellent wisdom}
She criethH7121 in the chief placeH7218 of concourseH1993, in the openingsH6607 of the gatesH8179: in the cityH5892 she utterethH559 her wordsH561, saying,
How long, ye simple onesH6612, will ye loveH157 simplicityH6612? and the scornersH3887 delightH2530 in their scorningH3944, and foolsH3684 hateH8130 knowledgeH1847?
TurnH7725 you at my reproofH8433: behold, I will pour outH5042 my spiritH7307 unto you, I will make knownH3045 my wordsH1697 unto you.
Because I have calledH7121, and ye refusedH3985; I have stretched outH5186 my handH3027, and no man regardedH7181;
But ye have set at noughtH6544 all my counselH6098, and wouldH14 none of my reproofH8433:
I also will laughH7832 at your calamityH343; I will mockH3932 when your fearH6343 comethH935;
When your fearH6343 comethH935 as desolationH7722+H7584, and your destructionH343 comethH857 as a whirlwindH5492; when distressH6869 and anguishH6695 comethH935 upon you.
Then shall they callH7121 upon me, but I will not answerH6030; they shall seek me earlyH7836, but they shall not findH4672 me:
For that they hatedH8130 knowledgeH1847, and did not chooseH977 the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068:
They wouldH14 none of my counselH6098: they despisedH5006 all my reproofH8433.
Therefore shall they eatH398 of the fruitH6529 of their own wayH1870, and be filledH7646 with their own devicesH4156.
For the turning awayH4878 of the simpleH6612 shall slayH2026 them, and the prosperityH7962 of foolsH3684 shall destroyH6 them. {turning…: or, ease of the simple}
But whoso hearkenethH8085 unto me shall dwellH7931 safelyH983, and shall be quietH7599 from fearH6343 of evilH7451.
