ScornfulH3944 menH582 bringH6315 a cityH7151 into a snareH6315: but wiseH2450 men turn awayH7725 wrathH639. {bring…: or, set a city on fire}
If a wiseH2450 manH376 contendethH8199 with a foolishH191 manH376, whether he rageH7264 or laughH7832, there is no restH5183.
The bloodthirstyH582+H1818 hateH8130 the uprightH8535: but the justH3477 seekH1245 his soulH5315. {The bloodthirsty: Heb. Men of blood}
A foolH3684 utterethH3318 all his mindH7307: but a wiseH2450 man keepethH7623 it in till afterwardsH268.
Wherefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, ye scornfulH3944 menH582, that ruleH4910 this peopleH5971 which is in JerusalemH3389.
And he wentH5674 through all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 unto AbelH59, and to BethmaachahH1038, and all the BeritesH1276: and they were gathered togetherH6950+H7035, and wentH935 also afterH310 him.
And they cameH935 and besiegedH6696 him in AbelH59 of BethmaachahH1038, and they cast upH8210 a bankH5550 against the cityH5892, and it stoodH5975 in the trenchH2426: and all the peopleH5971 that were with JoabH3097 batteredH7843 the wallH2346, to throw it downH5307. {in the trench: or, against the outmost wall} {battered: Heb. marred to throw down}
Then criedH7121 a wiseH2450 womanH802 out of the cityH5892, HearH8085, hearH8085; sayH559, I pray you, unto JoabH3097, Come nearH7126 hither, that I may speakH1696 with thee.
And when he was come nearH7126 unto her, the womanH802 saidH559, Art thou JoabH3097? And he answeredH559, I am he. Then she saidH559 unto him, HearH8085 the wordsH1697 of thine handmaidH519. And he answeredH559, I do hearH8085.
Then she spakeH559, sayingH559, They were wontH1696 to speakH1696 in old timeH7223, sayingH559, They shall surelyH7592 askH7592 counsel at AbelH59: and so they endedH8552 the matter. {They were…: or, They plainly spake in the beginning, saying, Surely they will ask of Abel, and so make an end}
I am one of them that are peaceableH7999 and faithfulH539 in IsraelH3478: thou seekestH1245 to destroyH4191 a cityH5892 and a motherH517 in IsraelH3478: why wilt thou swallow upH1104 the inheritanceH5159 of the LORDH3068?
And JoabH3097 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Far be itH2486, far be itH2486 from me, that I should swallow upH1104 or destroyH7843.
The matterH1697 is not so: but a manH376 of mountH2022 EphraimH669, ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075 by nameH8034, hath lifted upH5375 his handH3027 against the kingH4428, even against DavidH1732: deliverH5414 him only, and I will departH3212 from the cityH5892. And the womanH802 saidH559 unto JoabH3097, Behold, his headH7218 shall be thrownH7993 to thee overH1157 the wallH2346. {by name: Heb. by his name}
Then the womanH802 wentH935 unto all the peopleH5971 in her wisdomH2451. And they cut offH3772 the headH7218 of ShebaH7652 the sonH1121 of BichriH1075, and castH7993 it out to JoabH3097. And he blewH8628 a trumpetH7782, and they retiredH6327 from the cityH5892, every manH376 to his tentH168. And JoabH3097 returnedH7725 to JerusalemH3389 unto the kingH4428. {retired: Heb. were scattered}
HeH376, that being often reprovedH8433 hardenethH7185 his neckH6203, shall suddenlyH6621 be destroyedH7665, and that without remedyH4832. {He…: Heb. A man of reproofs}
When the righteousH6662 are in authorityH7235, the peopleH5971 rejoiceH8055: but when the wickedH7563 beareth ruleH4910, the peopleH5971 mournH584. {in…: or, increased}
WhosoH376 lovethH157 wisdomH2451 rejoicethH8055 his fatherH1: but he that keepeth companyH7462 with harlotsH2181 spendethH6 his substanceH1952.
The kingH4428 by judgmentH4941 establishethH5975 the landH776: but heH376 that receiveth giftsH8641 overthrowethH2040 it. {he…: Heb. a man of oblations}
A manH1397 that flatterethH2505 his neighbourH7453 spreadethH6566 a netH7568 for his feetH6471.
In the transgressionH6588 of an evilH7451 manH376 there is a snareH4170: but the righteousH6662 doth singH7442 and rejoiceH8056.
The righteousH6662 considerethH3045 the causeH1779 of the poorH1800: but the wickedH7563 regardethH995 not to knowH1847 it.
ScornfulH3944 menH582 bringH6315 a cityH7151 into a snareH6315: but wiseH2450 men turn awayH7725 wrathH639. {bring…: or, set a city on fire}

A foolH3684 utterethH3318 all his mindH7307: but a wiseH2450 man keepethH7623 it in till afterwardsH268.
If a rulerH4910 hearkenH7181 to liesH1697+H8267, all his servantsH8334 are wickedH7563.
The poorH7326 and the deceitfulH8501 manH376 meet togetherH6298: the LORDH3068 lightenethH215 bothH8147 their eyesH5869. {the deceitful…: or, the usurer}
The kingH4428 that faithfullyH571 judgethH8199 the poorH1800, his throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 for everH5703.
The rodH7626 and reproofH8433 giveH5414 wisdomH2451: but a childH5288 leftH7971 to himself bringeth his motherH517 to shameH954.
When the wickedH7563 are multipliedH7235, transgressionH6588 increasethH7235: but the righteousH6662 shall seeH7200 their fallH4658.
CorrectH3256 thy sonH1121, and he shall give thee restH5117; yea, he shall giveH5414 delightH4574 unto thy soulH5315.
Where there is no visionH2377, the peopleH5971 perishH6544: but he that keepethH8104 the lawH8451, happyH835 is he. {perish: or, is made naked}
A servantH5650 will not be correctedH3256 by wordsH1697: for though he understandH995 he will not answerH4617.
SeestH2372 thou a manH376 that is hastyH213 in his wordsH1697? there is more hopeH8615 of a foolH3684 than of him. {words: or, matters?}
He that delicately bringeth upH6445 his servantH5650 from a childH5290 shall have him become his sonH4497 at the lengthH319.
An angryH639 manH376 stirreth upH1624 strifeH4066, and a furiousH2534 manH1167 aboundeth inH7227 transgressionH6588.
A man'sH120 prideH1346 shall bring him lowH8213: but honourH3519 shall upholdH8551 the humbleH8217 in spiritH7307.
Whoso is partnerH2505 with a thiefH1590 hatethH8130 his own soulH5315: he hearethH8085 cursingH423, and bewrayethH5046 it not.
The fearH2731 of manH120 bringethH5414 a snareH4170: but whoso putteth his trustH982 in the LORDH3068 shall be safeH7682. {safe: Heb. set on high}
ManyH7227 seekH1245 the ruler'sH4910 favourH6440; but every man'sH376 judgmentH4941 cometh from the LORDH3068. {the ruler's…: Heb. the face of a ruler}
An unjustH5766 manH376 is an abominationH8441 to the justH6662: and he that is uprightH3477 in the wayH1870 is abominationH8441 to the wickedH7563.
But unto CainH7014 and to his offeringH4503 he had not respectH8159. And CainH7014 was veryH3966 wrothH2734, and his countenanceH6440 fellH5307.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto CainH7014, Why art thou wrothH2734? and why is thy countenanceH6440 fallenH5307?
IfH518 thou doest wellH3190, shalt thou not be acceptedH7613? and if thou doest not wellH3190, sinH2403 liethH7257 at the doorH6607. And unto thee shall be his desireH8669, and thou shalt ruleH4910 over him. {be accepted: or, have the excellency} {unto…: or, subject unto thee}
And CainH7014 talkedH559 withH413 AbelH1893 his brotherH251: and it came to pass, when they were in the fieldH7704, that CainH7014 rose upH6965 againstH413 AbelH1893 his brotherH251, and slew himH2026.
NotG3756 asG2531 CainG2535, who wasG2258 ofG1537 that wicked oneG4190, andG2532 slewG4969 hisG846 brotherG80. AndG2532 whereforeG5484+G5101 slewG4969 he himG846? BecauseG3754 his ownG846 worksG2041 wereG2258 evilG4190, andG1161 hisG846 brother'sG80 righteousG1342.
MarvelG2296 notG3361, myG3450 brethrenG80, ifG1487 the worldG2889 hateG3404 youG5209.
ButG235 I sayG3004 unto youG5213 whichG3588 hearG191, LoveG25 yourG5216 enemiesG2190, doG4160 goodG2573 to them whichG3588 hateG3404 youG5209,
HeH376, that being often reprovedH8433 hardenethH7185 his neckH6203, shall suddenlyH6621 be destroyedH7665, and that without remedyH4832. {He…: Heb. A man of reproofs}
