{{Old Testament TRV}}
 +
 
 +
1 A man through desire who seperates himself; seeks and intermingles with all wisdom.
 +
 
 +
2 A fool has no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
 +
 
 +
3 When the wicked comes, ''then'' contempt comes also; and with dishonor ''is'' reproach.
 +
 
 +
4 The words of a man’s mouth ''are'' deep waters; ''and'' the wellspring of wisdom is a flowing brook.
 +
 
 +
5 ''It is'' not good to accept the personality of the wicked, or to overthrow the righteous in judgment.
 +
 
 +
6 A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calls for smacks.
 +
 
 +
7 A fool’s mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
 +
 
 +
8 The words of a talebearer are like wounds, and they go down into the deepest part of the stomach.
 +
 
 +
9 He who is slothful in his work is also a brother to him who is a great squanderer.
 +
 
 +
10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are safe.
 +
 
 +
11 The rich man’s wealth ''is'' his strong city, and like a high wall in his own estimation.
 +
 
 +
12 Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, and before honor ''is'' humility.
 +
 
 +
13 He who answers a matter before he hears ''it'', it ''is'' folly and shame to him.
 +
 
 +
14 The spirit of a man will sustain him in sickness, but who can bear a wounded spirit?

15 The heart of the prudent gets knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
 +

16 A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men.

 +
17 ''He who is'' in his own cause seems just, but his neighbor comes and examines him.

18 The lot causes contentions to cease, and divides between the mighty.
 +
 
 +
19 A brother offended ''is harder'' to be won over than a strong city, and ''their'' contentions ''are'' like the bars of a castle.
 +
 
 +
20 A man’s stomach will be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth; ''and'' with the abundance of his lips he will be filled.
 +

21 Death and life ''are'' in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat the fruit of it.

22 He who finds a wife finds a good ''thing'', and obtains favor from the Lord.
