1 Proverbs of Solomon: A wise son makes his father happy, but a foolish son is the grief of his mother.
2 Treasures of wickedness will not avail, but charity will save from death.
3 The Lord will not starve the soul of the righteous, but the destruction [wrought by] the wicked will cast [them] down.
4 A poor man makes a deceitful scale, and the hand of those who make true decisions will make [them] rich.
5 An intelligent son gathers in the summer, whereas an embarrassing son sleeps soundly during the harvest.
6 Blessings [shall come] upon the head of a righteous man, but violence shall cover the mouth of the wicked.
7 The mention of a righteous man is for a blessing, but the name of the wicked shall rot.
8 The wise-hearted takes commandments, but he who talks foolishly will weary.
9 He who walks in innocence walks securely, but he who perverts his ways will be broken.
10 He who winks his eye causes grief, and he who talks foolishly will weary.
11 The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life, but the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.
12 Hatred arouses quarrels, but love covers all transgressions.
13 Wisdom is found in the lips of the understanding, but a rod is for the body of one devoid of sense.
14 Wise men store up knowledge, but the mouth of a fool [causes] destruction to come near.
15 The wealth of the rich is the city of his strength; the destruction of the poor is their poverty.
16 The act of the righteous is for life; what the wicked bring in is for sin.
17 The way to life is if one keeps discipline, but he who forsakes reproof misleads.
18 He who covers up hatred has false lips, and he who spreads slander is a fool.
19 In a multitude of words, transgression will not be avoided, and he who holds back his lips is wise.
20 The tongue of the righteous is choice silver; the heart of the wicked is worth little.
21 The lips of the righteous will feed many, but the fools will die for lack of sense.
22 The blessing of the Lord will bring riches, and toil will add nothing to it.
23 As it is sport for a fool to carry out a sinful plot, [so is] wisdom for a man of understanding.
24 The dread of a wicked man-that will befall him, but the desire of the righteous He will grant.
25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked man is no more, but the righteous is the foundation of the world.
26 Like vinegar to the teeth and like smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to those who send him.
27 Fear of the Lord will add days, but the years of the wicked will be shortened.
28 The expectation of the righteous [will result in] joy, but the hope of the wicked shall be lost.
29 The way of the Lord is a stronghold for the innocent, but ruin for those who work iniquity.
30 The righteous will not collapse forever, but the wicked shall not dwell in the land.
31 The mouth of a righteous man speaks wisdom, but a perverse tongue shall be cut off.
32 The lips of a righteous man know how to please, but the mouth of the wicked [knows] how to distort.
