As snowH7950 in summerH7019, and as rainH4306 in harvestH7105, so honourH3519 is not seemlyH5000 for a foolH3684.
As the birdH6833 by wanderingH5110, as the swallowH1866 by flyingH5774, so the curseH7045 causelessH2600 shall not comeH935.
A whipH7752 for the horseH5483, a bridleH4964 for the assH2543, and a rodH7626 for the fool'sH3684 backH1460.
AnswerH6030 not a foolH3684 according to his follyH200, lest thou also be likeH7737 unto him.
AnswerH6030 a foolH3684 according to his follyH200, lest he be wiseH2450 in his own conceitH5869. {conceit: Heb. eyes}
He that sendethH7971 a messageH1697 by the handH3027 of a foolH3684 cutteth offH7096 the feetH7272, and drinkethH8354 damageH2555. {damage: or, violence}
The legsH7785 of the lameH6455 are not equalH1809: so is a parableH4912 in the mouthH6310 of foolsH3684. {are…: Heb. are lifted up}
As he that bindethH6872+H6887 a stoneH68 in a slingH4773, so is he that givethH5414 honourH3519 to a foolH3684. {bindeth…: or, putteth a precious stone in an heap of stones}
As a thornH2336 goeth upH5927 into the handH3027 of a drunkardH7910, so is a parableH4912 in the mouthH6310 of foolsH3684.
The greatH7227 God that formedH2342 all things both rewardethH7936 the foolH3684, and rewardethH7936 transgressorsH5674. {The great…: or, A great man grieveth all, and he hireth the fool, he hireth also transgressors}
As a dogH3611 returnethH7725 to his vomitH6892, so a foolH3684 returnethH8138 to his follyH200. {returneth to his folly: Heb. iterateth his folly}
SeestH7200 thou a manH376 wiseH2450 in his own conceitH5869? there is more hopeH8615 of a foolH3684 than of him.
The slothfulH6102 man saithH559, There is a lionH7826 in the wayH1870; a lionH738 is in the streetsH7339.
As the doorH1817 turnethH5437 upon his hingesH6735, so doth the slothfulH6102 upon his bedH4296.
The slothfulH6102 hidethH2934 his handH3027 in his bosomH6747; it grievethH3811 him to bring it againH7725 to his mouthH6310. {it grieveth…: or, he is weary}
The sluggardH6102 is wiserH2450 in his own conceitH5869 than seven menH7651 that can renderH7725 a reasonH2940.
He that passeth byH5674, and meddlethH5674 with strifeH7379 belonging not to him, is like one that takethH2388 a dogH3611 by the earsH241. {meddleth: or, is enraged}
As a madH3856 man who castethH3384 firebrandsH2131, arrowsH2671, and deathH4194, {firebrands: Heb. flames, or, sparks}
So is the manH376 that deceivethH7411 his neighbourH7453, and saithH559, Am not I in sportH7832?
Where noH657 woodH6086 is, there the fireH784 goeth outH3518: so where there is no talebearerH5372, the strifeH4066 ceasethH8367. {Where no…: Heb. Without wood} {talebearer: or, whisperer} {ceaseth: Heb. is silent}
As coalsH6352 are to burning coalsH1513, and woodH6086 to fireH784; so is a contentiousH4079+H4066 manH376 to kindleH2787 strifeH7379.
The wordsH1697 of a talebearerH5372 are as woundsH3859, and they go downH3381 into the innermost partsH2315 of the bellyH990. {innermost…: Heb. chambers}
BurningH1814 lipsH8193 and a wickedH7451 heartH3820 are like a potsherdH2789 coveredH6823 with silverH3701 drossH5509.
He that hatethH8130 dissemblethH5234 with his lipsH8193, and layeth upH7896 deceitH4820 withinH7130 him; {dissembleth: or, is known}
When he speakethH6963 fairH2603, believeH539 him not: for there are sevenH7651 abominationsH8441 in his heartH3820. {speaketh…: Heb. maketh his voice gracious}
Whose hatredH8135 is coveredH3680 by deceitH4860, his wickednessH7451 shall be shewedH1540 before the whole congregationH6951. {by…: or, in secret}
Whoso diggethH3738 a pitH7845 shall fallH5307 therein: and he that rollethH1556 a stoneH68, it will returnH7725 upon him.
A lyingH8267 tongueH3956 hatethH8130 those that are afflictedH1790 by it; and a flatteringH2509 mouthH6310 workethH6213 ruinH4072.

And all the king'sH4428 servantsH5650, that were in the king'sH4428 gateH8179, bowedH3766, and reverencedH7812 HamanH2001: for the kingH4428 had so commandedH6680 concerning him. But MordecaiH4782 bowedH3766 not, nor did him reverenceH7812.

And the lettersH5612 were sentH7971 byH3027 postsH7323 into all the king'sH4428 provincesH4082, to destroyH8045, to killH2026, and to cause to perishH6, all JewsH3064, both youngH5288 and oldH2205, little childrenH2945 and womenH802, in oneH259 dayH3117, even upon the thirteenthH7969+H6240 day of the twelfthH8147+H6240 monthH2320, which is the monthH2320 AdarH143, and to take the spoilH7998 of them for a preyH962.
The copyH6572 of the writingH3791 for a commandmentH1881 to be givenH5414 in every provinceH4082 was publishedH1540 unto all peopleH5971, that they should be readyH6264 against that dayH3117.
The postsH7323 went outH3318, being hastenedH1765 by the king'sH4428 commandmentH1697, and the decreeH1881 was givenH5414 in ShushanH7800 the palaceH1002. And the kingH4428 and HamanH2001 sat downH3427 to drinkH8354; but the cityH5892 ShushanH7800 was perplexedH943.
So HatachH2047 went forthH3318 to MordecaiH4782 unto the streetH7339 of the cityH5892, which was beforeH6440 the king'sH4428 gateH8179.
