  5 G2296 To admire G4383 the face G765 of the impious G3756 is not G2570 good; G3761 nor G3741 is it sacred G1578 to turn aside G3588 the G1342 just G1722 in G2920 a judgment.

  8 G3636 The lazy G2598 are thrown down G5401 by fear; G5590 and the souls G1161   G407.1 of effeminate ones G3983 shall hunger.
  9 G3588 The one G3361 not G2390 repairing G1438 himself G1722 by G3588   G2041 his works G1473   G80 is brother G1510.2.3   G3588 of the one G3075 laying himself waste. G1438

  15 G2588 The heart G5429 of an intelligent man G2932 acquires G144 perception; G3775 and ears G1161   G4680 of the wise G2212 seek G1771 insight.
  16 G1390 A gift G444 of a man G1706.2 widens G1473 him; G2532 and G3844 [3by G1413 4monarchs G2522.2 1sits G1473 2him].

  20 G575 From G2590 fruits G4750 of the mouth G435 a man G4130 fills G2836 his belly; G1473   G575 and from G1161   G2590 fruits G5491 of his lips G1473   G1705 he shall be filled up.
  21 G2288 Death G2532 and G2222 life G1722 are in G5495 the handle G1100 of the tongue; G3588 and the ones G1161   G2902 holding G1473 it G2068 shall eat G3588   G2590 of its fruits. G1473  
  22 G3739 The one who G2147 found G1135 [2wife G18 1a good], G2147 found G5484 favors; G2983 and he received G1161   G3844 [2from G2962 3 the lord G2432 1happiness]. G3739 The one who G1544 casts out G1135 [2woman G18 1a good], G1544 casts out G3588   G18 good things; G3588 but the one G1161   G2722 holding on to G3428 an adulteress G878 is foolish G2532 and G765 impious.
  23 G1162 [3of supplications G5350 2utter sounds G3993 1 The needy]; G3588 but the G1161   G4145 rich G611 man responds G4642 harsh.
  24 G435 A man G2083 having friends G4314 is for G2082.3 friendship; G2532 and G1510.2.3 there is G5384 a friend G4347 cleaving to G5228 over G80 a brother.

  1 H8378 Through desire H6504 [H8737] a man, having separated H1245 [H8762] himself, seeketh H1566 [H8691] and intermeddleth H8454 with all sound wisdom.
  2 H3684 A fool H2654 [H8799] hath no delight H8394 in understanding, H3820 but that his heart H1540 [H8692] may discover itself.
  3 H7563 When the wicked H935 [H8800] cometh, H935 [H8804] then cometh H937 also contempt, H7036 and with ignominy H2781 reproach.
  4 H1697 The words H376 of a man's H6310 mouth H6013 are as deep H4325 waters, H4726 and the wellspring H2451 of wisdom H5042 [H8802] as a flowing H5158 brook.
  5 H2896 It is not good H5375 [H8800] to accept H6440 the person H7563 of the wicked, H5186 [H8687] to overthrow H6662 the righteous H4941 in judgment.
  6 H3684 A fool's H8193 lips H935 [H8799] enter H7379 into contention, H6310 and his mouth H7121 [H8799] calleth H4112 for strokes.
  7 H3684 A fool's H6310 mouth H4288 is his dissolution, H8193 and his lips H4170 are the snare H5315 of his breath.
  8 H1697 The words H5372 of a talebearer H3859 [H8693] are as wounds, H3381 [H8804] and they go down H2315 into the innermost parts H990 of the belly.
  9 H7503 [H8693] He also that is slothful H4399 in his work H251 is brother H1167 to him that is a great H7843 [H8688] decayer.
  10 H8034 The name H3068 of the LORD H5797 is a strong H4026 tower: H6662 the righteous H7323 [H8799] runneth H7682 [H8738] into it, and is safe.
  11 H6223 The rich man's H1952 wealth H5797 is his strong H7151 city, H7682 [H8737] and as an high H2346 wall H4906 in his own conceit.
  12 H6440 Before H7667 fracture H3820 the heart H376 of man H1361 [H8799] is haughty, H6440 and at the face of H3519 glory H6038 is humility.
  13 H7725 [H8688] He that answereth H1697 a matter H8085 [H8799] before he heareth H200 it, it is folly H3639 and disgrace to him.
  14 H7307 The spirit H376 of a man H3557 [H8770] will sustain H4245 his infirmity; H5218 but a wounded H7307 spirit H5375 [H8799] who can bear?
  15 H3820 The heart H995 [H8737] of the prudent H7069 [H8799] getteth H1847 knowledge; H241 and the ear H2450 of the wise H1245 [H8762] seeketh H1847 knowledge.
  16 H120 A man's H4976 gift H7337 [H8686] maketh room H5148 [H8686] for him, and bringeth H6440 him at the face of H1419 great men.
  17 H7223 He that is first H7379 in his own cause H6662 seemeth just; H7453 but his neighbour H935 H935 [H8804] cometh H2713 [H8804] and searcheth him.
  18 H1486 The lot H4079 causeth contentions H7673 [H8686] to cease, H6504 [H8686] and parteth H6099 between the mighty.
  19 H251 A brother H6586 [H8737] offended H5797 is harder to be won than a strong H7151 city: H4079 H4066 [H8675] and their contentions H1280 are like the bars H759 of a castle.
  20 H376 A man's H990 belly H7646 [H8799] shall be satisfied H6529 with the fruit H6310 of his mouth; H8393 and with the increase H8193 of his lips H7646 [H8799] shall he be filled.
  21 H4194 Death H2416 and life H3027 are in the hand H3956 of the tongue: H157 [H8802] and they that love H398 [H8799] it shall eat H6529 the fruit of it.
  22 H4672 [H8804] Whoever findeth H802 a wife H4672 [H8804] findeth H2896 a good H6329 [H8686] thing, and obtaineth H7522 delight H3068 from the LORD.
  23 H7326 [H8802] The poor H1696 [H8762] useth H8469 entreaties; H6223 but the rich H6030 [H8799] answereth H5794 roughly.
  24 H376 A man H7453 of associates H7489 [H8710] may be broken: H3426 and there is H157 [H8802] one who has affection H1695 that adhereth closer H251 than a brother.

Clementine_Vulgate(i) 1 [Occasiones quærit qui vult recedere ab amico: omni tempore erit exprobrabilis. 2 Non recipit stultus verba prudentiæ, nisi ea dixeris quæ versantur in corde ejus. 3 Impius, cum in profundum venerit peccatorum, contemnit; sed sequitur eum ignominia et opprobrium. 4 Aqua profunda verba ex ore viri, et torrens redundans fons sapientiæ. 5 Accipere personam impii non est bonum, ut declines a veritate judicii.] 6 [Labia stulti miscent se rixis, et os ejus jurgia provocat. 7 Os stulti contritio ejus, et labia ipsius ruina animæ ejus. 8 Verba bilinguis quasi simplicia, et ipsa perveniunt usque ad interiora ventris.

Wycliffe(i) 1 He that wole go a wei fro a frend, sekith occasiouns; in al tyme he schal be dispisable. 2 A fool resseyueth not the wordis of prudence; `no but thou seie tho thingis, that ben turned in his herte. 3 A wickid man, whanne he cometh in to depthe of synnes, dispisith; but sclaundre and schenschipe sueth hym. 4 Deep watir is the wordis of the mouth of a man; and a stronde fletinge ouer is the welle of wisdom. 5 It is not good to take the persoone of a wickid man in doom, that thou bowe awei fro the treuthe of dom. 6 The lippis of a fool medlen hem silf with chidyngis; and his mouth excitith stryues. 7 The mouth of a fool is defoulyng of hym; and hise lippis ben the fallynge of his soule. 8 The wordis of a double tungid man ben as symple; and tho comen `til to the ynnere thingis of the wombe. Drede castith doun a slowe man; forsothe the soulis of men turned in to wymmens condicioun schulen haue hungur. 9 He that is neisch, and vnstidfast in his werk, is the brother of a man distriynge hise werkis. 10 A strongeste tour is the name of the Lord; a iust man renneth to hym, and schal be enhaunsid. 11 The catel of a riche man is the citee of his strengthe; and as a stronge wal cumpassinge hym. 12 The herte of man is enhaunsid, bifor that it be brokun; and it is maad meke, bifore that it be glorified. 13 He that answerith bifore that he herith, shewith hym silf to be a fool; and worthi of schenschipe. 14 The spirit of a man susteyneth his feblenesse; but who may susteyne a spirit liyt to be wrooth? 15 The herte of a prudent man schal holde stidfastli kunnyng; and the eere of wise men sekith techyng. 16 The yift of a man alargith his weie; and makith space to hym bifore princes. 17 A iust man is the first accusere of hym silf; his frend cometh, and schal serche hym. 18 Lot ceessith ayenseiyngis; and demeth also among miyti men. 19 A brother that is helpid of a brothir, is as a stidfast citee; and domes ben as the barris of citees. 20 A mannus wombe schal be fillid of the fruit of his mouth; and the seedis of hise lippis schulen fille hym. 21 Deth and lijf ben in the werkis of tunge; thei that louen it, schulen ete the fruytis therof. 22 He that fyndith a good womman, fyndith a good thing; and of the Lord he schal drawe vp myrthe. He that puttith a wey a good womman, puttith awei a good thing; but he that holdith auowtresse, is a fool and vnwijs. 23 A pore man schal speke with bisechingis; and a riche man schal speke sterneli. 24 A man freendli to felouschipe schal more be a frend, than a brothir.
Coverdale(i) 1 Who so hath pleasure to sowe discorde, piketh a quarell in euery thinge. 2 A foole hath no delyte in vnderstodinge, but only in those thinges wherin his herte reioyseth. 3 Where vngodlynes is, there is also di?dayne: & so there foloweth shame & dishonor. 4 The wordes of a mas mouth are like depe waters, and the well of wy?dome is like a full streame. 5 It is not good to regarde ye personne of the vngodly, or to put backe ye righteous in iudgmet. 6 A fooles lippes are euer brawlinge, and his mouth prouoketh vnto batayll. 7 A fooles mouth is his owne destruccion, and his lippes are ye snare for his owne soule. 8 The wordes of a slaunderer are very woudes, and go thorow vnto the ynmost partes of the body. 9 Who so is slouthfull and slacke in his labor, is ye brother of him ye is a waister. 10 The name of ye LORDE is a stronge castell, ye righteous flyeth vnto it, and shalbe saued. 11 But ye rich mas goodes are his stronge holde, yee he taketh them for an hye wall roude aboute him. 12 After pryde cometh destruccio, and honor after lowlynes. 13 He that geueth sentece in a matter before he heare it, is a foole, and worthy to be confounded. 14 A good stomacke dryueth awaye a mas disease, but wha ye sprete is vexed, who maye abyde it? 15 A wyse herte laboureth for knowlege, and a prudent eare seketh vnderstondinge. 16 Liberalite bryngeth a man to honor and worshipe, & setteth him amonge greate men. 17 The righteous accuseth hi self first of all, yf his neghbor come, he shal fynde him. 18 The lot pacifieth ye variauce, & parteth ye mightie asunder. 19 The vnite of brethren is stronger then a castell, and they that holde together are like the barre of a palace. 20 A mans bely shalbe satisfied with the frute of his owne mouth, and with the increase of his lippes shal he be fylled. 21 Death and life stonde in the power of the tonge, he that loueth it, shal enioye the frute therof. 22 Who so fyndeth a wife fyndeth a good thynge, & receaueth an wholsome benefite of the LORDE. 23 The poore maketh supplicacion and prayeth mekely, but the riche geueth a rough answere. 24 A frende that delyteth in loue, doth a man more fredshipe, and sticketh faster vnto him then a brother.
MSTC(i) 1 He accompanieth himself with all steadfast and healthsome doctrine, that hath a desire to it and is sequestered from company. 2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but only in those things wherein his heart rejoiceth. 3 Where ungodliness is, there is also disdain; and so there followeth shame and dishonour. 4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters; and the well of wisdom is like a full stream. 5 It is not good to regard the person of the ungodly, or to put back the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips are ever brawling, and his mouth provoketh unto battle. 7 A fool's mouth is his own destruction, and his lips are the snare for his own soul. 8 The words of a slanderer are very wounds, and go through unto the inmost parts of the body. 9 Whoso is slothful and slack in his labor, is the brother of him that is a waster. 10 The name of the LORD is a strong castle, the righteous flyeth unto it, and shall be saved. 11 But the rich man's goods are his stronghold, yea he taketh them for a high wall round about him. 12 After pride cometh destruction; and honour after lowliness. 13 He that giveth sentence in a matter before he hear it, is a fool, and worthy to be confounded. 14 A good stomach driveth away a man's disease; but when the spirit is vexed, who may abide it? 15 A wise heart laboureth for knowledge; and a prudent ear seeketh understanding. 16 Liberality bringeth a man to honour and worship, and setteth him among great men. 17 The righteous accuseth himself first of all; if his neighbour come, he shall find him. 18 The lot pacifieth the variance, and parteth the mighty asunder. 19 The unity of brethren is stronger than a castle, and they that hold together are like the bar of a palace. 20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his own mouth, and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. 21 Death and life stand in the power of the tongue; he that loveth it, shall enjoy the fruit thereof. 22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and receiveth an wholesome benefit of the LORD. 23 The poor maketh supplication and prayeth meekly; but the rich giveth a rough answer. 24 A friend that delighteth in love, doth a man more friendship, and sticketh faster unto him than a brother.
Matthew(i) 1 Who so hath pleasure to sow dyscorde, pyketh a quarel in euery thyng. 2 A foole hath no delite in understanding, but only in those thynges wherin his herte reioyseth. 3 Wher vngodlynes is, there is also disdayne: and so there foloweth shame and dishonoure. 4 The wordes of mans mouth are lyke depe waters, and the well of wysdome is lyke a full streame. 5 It is not good to a regarde the personne of the vngodly, or to put backe the ryghteous in iudgmente. 6 A fooles lippes are euer brawling, and his mouth prouoketh vnto battayll. 7 A fooles mouth is hys owne destruccion and his lippes are the snare for his owne soule. 8 The words of a sclanderer are very woundes, and go thorow vnto the inmost parts of the body. 9 Who so is slouthful & slacke in his laboure, is the brother of him that is a waster. 10 The name of the Lord is a strong castel, the righteous flieth vnto it, and shalbe saued. 11 But the rich mans goods are his strong hold, yea he taketh them for an hie wall rounde aboute hym. 12 After pryde commeth destruccion, and honour after lowlines. 13 He that geueth sentence in a matter before he heare it, is a foole, & worthy to be confounded. 14 A good stomacke driueth awaye a mans disease, but when the sptrite is vexed, who may abide it? 15 A wyse herte laboureth for knowledge, and a prudent eare seketh vnderstanding 16 Liberalitye bryngeth a man to honoure and worship, and setteth him among great men. 17 The rightuous accuseth hym selfe firste of al, if his neyghbour come, he shal fynd him. 18 The lot pacifieth the variaunce, and parteth the mighty a sunder. 19 The vnitie of brethren is stronger then a castel, and they that hold together are like the barre of a palayce. 20 A mans belly shalbe satisfied wyth the fruyte of hys owne mouthe, and wyth the increase of hys lyppes shall he be fylled. 21 Death & lyfe stand in the power of the tong, he that loueth it shal enioy the frute thereof. 22 Who so fyndeth a wyfe fyndeth a good thynge, and receyueth an wholsome benefyte of the Lord. 23 The poore maketh supplicacyon & prayeth mekelye, but the ryche geueth a rough aunswere. 24 A frende that delyteth in loue, doeth a man more frenshyppe, and stycketh faster vnto hym then a brother.
Great(i) 1 He accompanieth hym selfe with all steadfast & helth some doctryne, that hath a feruent desyre to it and is sequestrate from companye. 2 A foole hath no delyte in vnderstandinge, but onely in those thinges wherin his herte reioyseth. 3 When the vngodly commeth, them commeth also dysdayne, and with the dishonest person commeth shame and dishonour. 4 The wordes of a wyse mans mouth are lyke depe waters, and the well of wysdome is lyke a full streame. 5 It is not good to regarde the personne of the vngodly, or to put backe the ryghteous in iudgement. 6 A fooles lyppes are euer brawelynge, and his mouth prouoketh vnto battayll. 7 A fooles mouth is hys awne destruccyon, and hys lyppes are the snare for hys awne soule 8 The wordes of a sclaunderer are very woundes, and go thorowe vnto the ynmost partes of the body. 9 Who so is slouthfull and slacke in hys laboure, is the brother of him that is a waster. 10 The name of the Lord is a stronge castell, the ryghteous flyeth vnto it, and is in saue garde. 11 But the ryche mans goodes are his stronge holde, ye he taketh them for an hye wall rounde aboute him. 12 After pryde commeth destruccyon, and honour after lowlynes. 13 He that geueth sentence in a matter before he heare it, is a foole, and worthy to be confounded. 14 A good stomacke dryueth awaye a mans disease, but when the sprete is vexed, who maye byde it? 15 A wyse herte laboureth for knowledge and a prudent eare seketh vnderstandynge. 16 Lyberalite bryngeth a man to honoure and worshyppe, and setteth him amonge great men. 17 The righteous declareth his awne cause first him selfe, yf his neyghbour come, he shall finde him. 18 The lott pacifyeth the variaunce, & parteth the myghtye a sunder. 19 A brother though he be greued wt offence, yet is he more worth then a very stronge castell: and they that holde together are lyke the barre of a palace. 20 A mans bely shalbe satisfyed wt the frute of his awne mouth, and with the increase of hys lyppes shall he be fylled. 21 Death and lyfe are in the instrument of the tonge: and they that loue it, shall enioye the frute therof. 22 Who so fyndeth a wyfe fyndeth a good thynge, and receaueth an wholsome benefyte of the Lorde. 23 The poore maketh supplicacyon & praieth mekely: but the riche geueth a rough answere. 24 A man that loueth his frendes wyll be compinable with them: and some frende sticketh faster to a man then his brother.
Geneva(i) 1 For the desire thereof hee will separate himselfe to seeke it, and occupie himselfe in all wisdome. 2 A foole hath no delite in vnderstanding: but that his heart may be discouered. 3 When the wicked commeth, then commeth contempt, and with the vile man reproch. 4 The words of a mans mouth are like deepe waters, and the welspring of wisdome is like a flowing riuer. 5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to cause ye righteous to fall in iudgement. 6 A fooles lips come with strife, and his mouth calleth for stripes. 7 A fooles mouth is his owne destruction, and his lips are a snare for his soule. 8 The wordes of a tale bearer are as flatterings, and they goe downe into the bowels of the belly. 9 He also that is slouthfull in his worke, is euen the brother of him that is a great waster. 10 The Name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth vnto it, and is exalted. 11 The rich mans riches are his strong citie: and as an hie wall in his imagination. 12 Before destruction the heart of a man is hautie, and before glory goeth lowlines. 13 He that answereth a matter before hee heare it, it is folly and shame vnto him. 14 The spirit of a man will susteine his infirmitie: but a wounded spirit who can beare it? 15 A wise heart getteth knowledge, and the eare of the wise seeketh learning. 16 A mans gift enlargeth him, and leadeth him before great men. 17 He that is first in his owne cause, is iust: then commeth his neighbour, and maketh inquirie of him. 18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and maketh a partition among the mightie. 19 A brother offended is harder to winne then a strong citie, and their contentions are like the barre of a palace. 20 With the fruite of a mans mouth shall his belly be satisfied, and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. 21 Death and life are in the power of ye tongue, and they that loue it, shall eate the fruite thereof. 22 He that findeth a wife, findeth a good thing, and receiueth fauour of the Lord. 23 The poore speaketh with prayers: but the rich answereth roughly. 24 A man that hath friends, ought to shew him selfe friendly: for a friend is neerer then a brother.

DouayRheims(i) 1 He that hath a mind to depart from a friend, seeketh occasions: he shall ever be subject to reproach. 2 A fool receiveth not the words of prudence: unless thou say those things which are in his heart. 3 The wicked man, when he is come into the depths of sins, contemneth: but ignominy and reproach follow him. 4 Words from the mouth of a man are as deep water: and the fountain of wisdom is an overflowing stream. 5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to decline from the truth of judgment. 6 The lips of a fool intermeddle with strife: and his mouth provoketh quarrels. 7 The mouth of a fool is his destruction: and his lips are the ruin of his soul. 8 The words of the double tongued are as if they were harmless: and they reach even to the inner parts of the bowels. Fear casteth down the slothful: and the souls of the effeminate shall be hungry. 9 He that is loose and slack in his work, is the brother of him that wasteth his own works. 10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the just runneth to it, and shall be exalted. 11 The substance of the rich man is the city of his strength, and as a strong wall compassing him about. 12 Before destruction, the heart of a man is exalted: and before he be glorified, it is humbled. 13 He that answereth before he heareth, sheweth himself to be a fool, and worthy of confusion. 14 The spirit of a man upholdeth his infirmity: but a spirit that is easily angered, who can bear? 15 A wise heart shall acquire knowledge: and the ear of the wise seeketh instruction. 16 A man's gift enlargeth his way, and maketh him room before princes. 17 The just is first accuser of himself: his friend cometh, and shall search him. 18 The lot suppresseth contentions, and determineth even between the mighty. 19 A brother that is helped by his brother, is like a strong city: and judgments are like the bars of cities. 20 Of the fruit of a man's mouth shall his belly be satisfied: and the offspring of his lips shall fill him. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: they that love it, shall eat the fruits thereof. 22 He that hath found a good wife, hath found a good thing, and shall receive a pleasure from the Lord. He that driveth away a good wife, driveth away a good thing: but he that keepeth an adulteress, is foolish and wicked. 23 The poor will speak with supplications, and the rich will speak roughly. 24 A man amiable in society, shall be more friendly than a brother.

Thomson(i) 1 He who desireth to part with friends seeketh excuses; but he will always be liable to reproach. 2 He who is void of understanding hath no use for wisdom; for he is rather led by folly. 3 When a wicked man cometh to a depth of evils he sheweth contempt; but ignominy and reproach come upon him. 4 A speech in a man's heart is deep water; but a stream issueth forth and a flowing spring. 5 To respect the person of a wicked man is not good; nor is it consistent with piety to pervert justice in judgment. 6 The lips of a fool lead him into trouble; and his mouth when bold provoketh death. 7 The mouth of a fool is his destruction, and his lips are a snare for his soul. 8 Fear depresseth the slothful; and the souls of the effeminate shall suffer want. 9 He who doth not use his endeavours to cure himself is brother to him who destroyeth himself. 10 The name of the Lord is of majestic power; and the righteous having recourse to it shall be exalted. 11 A rich man's wealth is a strong city, and the glory of it casteth a great shadow. 12 Before destruction a man's heart is haughty, and before honour it is humble. 13 He who answereth a matter before he heareth it, exposeth his folly and incurreth contempt. 14 A wise servant appeaseth a man's anger; but a mean spirited man who can bear? 15 The heart of a prudent man getteth knowledge; and the ears of the wise seek understanding. 16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and procureth him a seat among the mighty. 17 A just man is his own accuser in his first speech; but when he is accused his adversary is refuted. 18 The silent lot putteth an end to contention, and determineth among the mighty. 19 A brother assisted by a brother is like a fortified and lofty city, and is strong as a well founded palace. 20 With the fruits of his mouth a man filleth his belly, and with the fruits of his lips he shall be satisfied. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and they who have the command of it shall eat the fruits thereof. 22 He who hath found a good wife hath found favour, and hath received joy from God. He who putteth away a good wife, putteth away good things; but he who retaineth an adulteress is foolish and wicked.
Webster(i) 1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. 2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may reveal itself. 3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach. 4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the well-spring of wisdom as a flowing brook. 5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes. 7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. 8 The words of a tale-bearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. 9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster. 10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as a high wall in his own conceit. 12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honor is humility. 13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame to him. 14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear? 15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. 16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men. 17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbor cometh and searcheth him. 18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty. 19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle. 20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit of it. 22 Whoever findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favor from the LORD. 23 The poor useth entreaties; but the rich answereth roughly. 24 A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

Brenton(i) 1 A man who wishes to separate from friends seeks excuses; but at all times he will be liable to reproach. 2 A senseless man feels no need of wisdom, for he is rather led by folly. 3 When an ungodly man comes into a depth of evils, he despises them; but dishonour and reproach come upon him. 4 A word in the heart of a man is a deep water, and a river and fountain of life spring forth. 5 It is not good to accept the person of the ungodly, nor is it holy to pervert justice in judgment. 6 The lips of a fool bring him into troubles, and his bold mouth calls for death. 7 A fool's mouth is ruin to him, and his lips are a snare to his soul. 8 Fear casts down the slothful; and the souls of the effeminate shall hunger. 9 A man who helps not himself by his labour is brother of him that ruins himself. 10 The name of the Lord is of great strength; and the righteous running to it are exalted. 11 The wealth of a rich man is a strong city; and its glory casts a broad shadow. 12 Before ruin a man's heart is exalted, and before honour it is humble. 13 Whoso answers a word before he hears a cause, it is folly and reproach to him. 14 A wise servant calms a man's anger; but who can endure a faint-hearted man? 15 The heart of the sensible man purchases discretion; and the ears of the wise seek understanding. 16 A man's gift enlarges him, and seats him among princes. 17 A righteous man accuses himself at the beginning of his speech, but when he has entered upon the attack, the adversary is reproved. 18 A silent man quells strifes, and determines between great powers. 19 A brother helped by a brother is as a strong and high city; and is as strong as a well-founded palace. 20 A man fills his belly with the fruits of his mouth; and he shall be satisfied with the fruits of his lips. 21 Life and death are in the power of the tongue; and they that rule it shall eat the fruits thereof. 22 He that has found a good wife has found favours, and has received gladness from God. (18:22A) {\I He that puts away a good wife, puts away a good thing, and he that keeps an adulteress is foolish and ungodly.} 23 (OMITTED TEXT) 24 (OMITTED TEXT)

Leeser(i) 1 He that separateth himself from God seeketh his own desires: at every sound wisdom is he enraged. 2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but in laying open what is in his heart. 3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with dishonorable acts, disgrace. 4 Like deep waters are the words of a wise man’s mouth, and a bubbling brook is the well-spring of wisdom. 5 It is not good to favor the person of the wicked, to wrest the cause of the righteous in judgment. 6 The lips of the fool come with contention, and his mouth calleth for blows. 7 The mouth of the fool is a destruction to himself, and his lips are the snare of his soul. 8 The words of a whisperer are as wounds, and they go down indeed into the innermost parts of the body. 9 He also that showeth himself slothful in his work is a brother to the destroyer. 10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower, whereunto the righteous runneth, and is placed in safety. 11 The rich man’s wealth is his strong town, and as a towering wall in his own conceit. 12 Before downfall the heart of man becometh haughty, and before honor goeth humility. 13 When one returneth an answer before he understandeth the question, it is folly unto him and shame. 14 The spirit of a man will readily bear his disease; but a depressed spirit who can bear: 15 The heart of the man of understanding will obtain knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. 16 A man’s gift maketh room for him, and before great men will it lead him. 17 He that is first in his cause seemeth just; but when his neighbor cometh, then will it be investigated. 18 The lot causeth disputes to cease, and it decideth between the mighty. 19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong town; and quarrels among brothers are like the bars of a castle. 20 From the fruit of a man’s mouth is his body satisfied; with the product of his lips doth he satisfy himself. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it will eat its fruit. 22 Whoso hath found a wife hath found happiness, and hath obtained favor from the Lord. 23 The poor speaketh entreatingly; but the rich answereth roughly. 24 A man’s many companions are hurtful to him; but there is many a friend that cleaveth closer than a brother.
YLT(i) 1 For an object of desire he who is separated doth seek, With all wisdom he intermeddleth.
2 A fool delighteth not in understanding, But—in uncovering his heart.
3 With the coming of the wicked come also hath contempt, And with shame—reproach.
4 Deep waters are the words of a man's mouth, The fountain of wisdom is a flowing brook.
5 Acceptance of the face of the wicked is not good, To turn aside the righteous in judgment.
6 The lips of a fool enter into strife, And his mouth for stripes calleth. 7 The mouth of a fool is ruin to him, And his lips are the snare of his soul.
8 The words of a tale-bearer are as self-inflicted wounds, And they have gone down to the inner parts of the heart.
9 He also that is remiss in his work, A brother he is to a destroyer.
10 A tower of strength is the name of Jehovah, Into it the righteous runneth, and is set on high.
11 The wealth of the rich is the city of his strength, And as a wall set on high in his own imagination.
12 Before destruction the heart of man is high, And before honour is humility.
13 Whoso is answering a matter before he heareth, Folly it is to him and shame.
14 The spirit of a man sustaineth his sickness, And a smitten spirit who doth bear?
15 The heart of the intelligent getteth knowledge, And the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
16 The gift of a man maketh room for him, And before the great it leadeth him.
17 Righteous is the first in his own cause, His neighbour cometh and hath searched him.
18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, And between the mighty it separateth.
19 A brother transgressed against is as a strong city, And contentions as the bar of a palace.
20 From the fruit of a man's mouth is his belly satisfied, From the increase of his lips he is satisfied.
21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those loving it eat its fruit.
22 Whoso hath found a wife hath found good, And bringeth out good-will from Jehovah.
23 With supplications doth the poor speak, And the rich answereth fierce things.
24 A man with friends is to show himself friendly, And there is a lover adhering more than a brother!
JuliaSmith(i) 1 He separating himself will Seek according to desire; he will be irritated with every purpose. 2 The foolish one will not delight in understanding, but in, the disclosings of his heart 3 In the coming of the unjust also came contempt, and with dishonor, reproach. 4 Deep waters are the words of man's mouth, the fountain of wisdom a gushing stream. 5 To lift up the face of the unjust one is not good; to turn aside the just one in judgment. 6 The lips of the foolish one will come into contention, and his mouth will call for blows. 7 The mouth of the foolish is destruction to him, and his lips the snare of his soul. 8 The words of the tale-bearer as dainty morsels, and they will go down to the chambers of the belly. 9 Also he being slothful in his work, he the brother of the master of destruction. 10 The name of Jehovah a tower of strength: into it the just one shall run and be exalted. 11 The rich one's wealth his strong city, and as a wall lifted up in his imagination. 12 Before a breaking a man's heart will be lifted up, and before honor, humility. 13 He turning back the word before he shall hear it, is folly and shame to him. 14 The spirit of man will sustain his disease; and a dejected spirit who shall lift up? 15 The heart of him understanding will obtain knowledge and the ear of the wise will seek knowledge. 16 The gift of a man will enlarge to him, and shall conduct him before the great 17 The first one just in his cause; his neighbor will come and search him. 18 The lot will cause contentions to cease, and will separate between the strong, 19 A brother falling away, above a city of strength; and strifes as the bars of a fortress. 20 From the fruit of a man's mouth his belly shall be filled; and he shall be filled with the increase of his lips. 21 Death and life in the hand of the tongue: and they loving it shall eat its fruit 22 He finding a wife found good, and shall obtain acceptance from Jehovah. 23 The poor one will speak supplications; and the rich one will answer with vehemence. 24 A man of friends for making friendship: and there is love attaching more than a brother.

13 He that answereth before he heareth, a folly, it is to him, and, a reproach.
14 The spirit of a man, sustaineth his sickness, but, a dejected spirit, who can bear it?
15 The heart of the intelligent, acquireth knowledge, yea, the ear of the wise, seeketh knowledge.
16 The gift of a man, maketh room for him, and, before great men, setteth him down.
17 Righteous is he that is first in his own cause, then cometh his neighbour, and thoroughly searcheth him.
18 The lot causeth, contentions, to cease, and, the mighty, it parteth.
19 A brother estranged, [is worse] than a strong city,––and, contentions, are as the bar of a citadel.
20 Of the fruit of a man’s mouth, shall his inmost mind be satisfied, with the product of his lips, shall he be satisfied.
21 Death and life, are in the power of the tongue, and, its friends, shall eat its fruits.
22 Who hath found a wife, hath found a blessing, and hath obtained favour from Yahweh.
23 Supplications, doth the poor man utter, but, the rich, answereth fiercely.
24 A man having [many] friends, shall come to ruin, but there is a loving one, who sticketh closer than a brother.
CLV(i) 1 He shall seek for a pretext who wishes to be parted from friends; Against all sagacity shall he rail. 2 The stupid man does not delight in comprehension, But rather in exposing his heart to others." 3 When wickedness comes, so also comes contempt, And with dishonor comes reproach." 4 The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; The fountain of wisdom is a watercourse bubbling forth. 5 To show partiality to the wicked is not good, Or to turn aside the righteous in judgment." 6 The lips of a stupid man bring him into contention, And his mouth calls for beatings." 7 The mouth of a stupid man is his undoing, And his lips are a trap for his soul." 8 The words of a babbler are like tidbits; They descend to the chambers of one's belly. 9 One who is slack in his work, He is brother to a ruinous person." 10 The name of Yahweh is a strong tower; The righteous one runs to it and is made impregnable. 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong town, And in his fancy it is like an impregnable wall." 12 The heart of a man is haughty before a breaking, Yet humility comes before glory." 13 He who replies with speech ere he has heard, It is folly to him and confounding." 14 A man's spirit sustains him in his illness, Yet a despondent spirit, who can bear it? 15 The heart of one who understands acquires knowledge, And the ear of the wise seeks knowledge." 16 A man's gift widens the way for him, And guides him before the great." 17 The first pleader seems right in his contention Until his associate comes and investigates him. 18 Casting the lot causes quarrels to cease, And keeps staunch foes apart." 19 A brother transgressed against is more unyielding than a strong town, And quarrels are like bars of a citadel." 20 From the fruit of a man's mouth, his belly is satisfied; He must be satisfied with the yield from his lips." 21 Death and life lie in the hand of the tongue, And they who love to use it must eat its fruit." 22 If one finds a wife he finds good, And he gains hold of benevolence from Yahweh." 23 One who is destitute speaks with supplications, Yet the rich man responds with roughness." 24 There are associates disposed to be evildoers, Yet there is one with love more loyal than a brother's."
BBE(i) 1 He who keeps himself separate for his private purpose goes against all good sense. 2 A foolish man has no pleasure in good sense, but only to let what is in his heart come to light. 3 When the evil-doer comes, a low opinion comes with him, and with the loss of honour comes shame. 4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters: the fountain of wisdom is like a flowing stream. 5 To have respect for the person of the evil-doer is not good, or to give a wrong decision against the upright. 6 A foolish man's lips are a cause of fighting, and his mouth makes him open to blows. 7 The mouth of a foolish man is his destruction, and his lips are a net for his soul. 8 The words of one who says evil of his neighbour secretly are like sweet food, and go down into the inner parts of the stomach. 9 He who does not give his mind to his work is brother to him who makes destruction. 10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the upright man running into it is safe. 11 The property of a man of wealth is his strong town, and it is as a high wall in the thoughts of his heart. 12 Before destruction the heart of man is full of pride, and before honour goes a gentle spirit. 13 To give an answer before hearing is a foolish thing and a cause of shame. 14 The spirit of a man will be his support when he is ill; but how may a broken spirit be lifted up? 15 The heart of the man of good sense gets knowledge; the ear of the wise is searching for knowledge. 16 A man's offering makes room for him, letting him come before great men. 17 The man who first puts his cause before the judge seems to be in the right; but then his neighbour comes and puts his cause in its true light. 18 The decision of chance puts an end to argument, parting the strong. 19 A brother wounded is like a strong town, and violent acts are like a locked tower. 20 With the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach will be full; the produce of his lips will be his in full measure. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and those to whom it is dear will have its fruit for their food. 22 Whoever gets a wife gets a good thing, and has the approval of the Lord. 23 The poor man makes requests for grace, but the man of wealth gives a rough answer. 24 There are friends who may be a man's destruction, but there is a lover who keeps nearer than a brother.
MKJV(i) 1 He that separates himself seeks his own desire; he breaks out against all sound wisdom. 2 A fool has no delight in understanding, but only that his heart may lay itself bare. 3 When the wicked comes, scorn also comes, and with shame comes reproach. 4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is like a flowing stream. 5 It is not good to favor the person of the wicked, nor to overthrow the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips enter into argument, and his mouth calls for strokes. 7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. 8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. 9 Also he who is slack in his work is brother to a great destroyer. 10 The name of Jehovah is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe. 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as a high wall in his own mind. 12 Before shattering, the heart of man is proud, and before honor is humility. 13 If one answers a matter before he hears, it is folly and shame to him. 14 The spirit of a man will nourish his sickness, but a wounded spirit who can bear? 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 The first in his cause seems just, but his neighbor comes and searches him. 18 The lot causes arguments to cease, and divides between the mighty. 19 A brother offended is like a strong city; and their disagreements are like the bars of a fortress. 20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; he shall be satisfied with the product of his lips. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it shall eat the fruit of it. 22 Whoever finds a wife finds good and gets favor from Jehovah. 23 The poor speaks humble requests, but the rich answers roughly. 24 A man who has friends may be broken up, but there is a Lover who sticks closer than a brother.
LITV(i) 1 He who separates himself seeks his own desire, he breaks out against all sound wisdom. 2 A fool has no delight in understanding, but only in uncovering his heart. 3 When the wicked comes, scorn also comes, and with shame comes reproach. 4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters, the fountain of wisdom like a flowing stream. 5 To lift up the face of the wicked is not good, nor to turn aside the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips enter into strife, and his mouth calls for strokes. 7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are a snare of his soul. 8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds; yea, they go down into the innermost chambers of the belly. 9 And he who is slack in his work, he is a brother to a master destroyer. 10 The name of Jehovah is a tower of strength, the righteous runs into it and is set on high. 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as a high wall in his imagination. 12 Before shattering, a man's heart is haughty, but humility goes before honor. 13 If one rejects a matter before he hears, it is folly and shame to him. 14 The spirit of a man will nourish his 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 first in his cause seems just, but his neighbor comes and searches him. 18 The lot causes arguments to cease, and divides between the mighty. 19 An offended brother is worse than a fortified city; yea, their contentions are like the bars of a castle. 20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; he shall be satisfied with the produce of his lips. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it shall eat its fruit. 22 Whoever finds a wife finds good, and gets favor from Jehovah. 23 The poor speak with entreaties, but the rich answer fiercely. 24 A man of friends may be broken up, but there is a Lover who sticks closer than a brother.
ECB(i) 1 He who seeks his own desire separates himself and quarrels with all evidence. 2 A fool has no delight in discernment; but to expose his heart. 3 When the wicked come, then also comes disrespect; and with abasement, reproach. 4 The words of the mouth of a man are as deep waters, and the fountain of wisdom as a gushing wadi. 5 It is not good - to lift the face of the wicked - to pervert the just in judgment. 6 The lips of a fool enter contention and his mouth calls for poundings. 7 The mouth of a fool is his ruin and his lips the snare of his soul. 8 The words of a whisperer inflame - descending to the chambers of the belly. 9 He also who slacks his work is brother to a master of ruin. 10 The name of Yah Veh is a tower of strength; the just run to it and are lofted. 11 The wealth of the rich is his city of strength - as a lofted wall in his own imagination. 12 At the face of the breech the heart of man is lifted; at the face of honor is humility. 13 He who responds to a word ere he hears - folly and shame to him. 14 The spirit of a man sustains his disease; and a stricken spirit who can bear? 15 The heart of the discerning chattelizes knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge. 16 The gift of a human enlarges him - leads him at the face of the great. 17 He who presents his own defence first, is just; and his friend comes and probes him. 18 The pebble causes contentions to shabbathize and separates between the mighty. 19 A brother rebelled against, is as a city of strength; and their contentions, as the bars of a citadel. 20 The belly of man satiates with the fruit of his mouth - satiates with the produce of his lips. 21 Death and life are in the hand of the tongue; and they who love it eat the fruit thereof. 22 Whoever finds a woman finds good and produces pleasure from Yah Veh. 23 The impoverished word supplications; and the rich answer strongly. 24 A man with friends shows himself friendly; and there is a lover who adheres closer than a brother.

KJ2000(i) 1 A man, having separated himself, seeks his own desire, and rages against all sound wisdom. 2 A fool has no delight in understanding, but that his heart may express itself. 3 When the wicked comes, then comes also contempt, and with dishonor comes reproach. 4 The words of a man's mouth are like deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom like a flowing brook. 5 It is not good to be partial to the wicked, or to overthrow the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calls for blows. 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 tasty morsels, and they go down into the innermost parts of the body. 9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster. 10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runs into it, and is safe. 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and like a high wall in his own esteem. 12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honor is humility. 13 He that answers a matter before he hears it, it is folly and shame unto him. 14 The spirit of a man will sustain him in sickness; but a wounded spirit who can bear? 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 that speaks first in his own cause seems just; until his neighbor comes and examines him. 18 The lot causes contentions to cease, and decides between the mighty. 19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and contentions are like the bars of a castle. 20 A man's stomach shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. 22 Whosoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of the LORD. 23 The poor uses entreaties; but the rich answers roughly. 24 A man that has friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticks closer than a brother.

NSB(i) 1 A man of solitude (who keeps to himself) (isolates himself) seeks his own (selfish) desire. He objects to sound wisdom. 2 A fool (stupid person) does not like understanding when revealing his thoughts. 3 When the wicked comes contempt also comes. Dishonor brings reproach. 4 The words of a man's mouth are deep waters. It is like a flowing brook and a wellspring of wisdom. 5 It is not good to accept the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips want to argue. His mouth calls for blows. 7 A fool's mouth is his ruin. His lips are the snares of his life. 8 The words of a talebearer cause wounds. They plunge down to the innermost parts. 9 He is lazy in his work. His brother destroys. 10 The name of Jehovah is a strong tower. The righteous runs into it for protection. 11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city. It is his high wall of vanity. 12 Before destruction the heart of man is prideful. Humility comes before honor and glory. 13 It is foolishness and shame to answer a matter before you hear it. 14 The spirit of a man will sustain him in sickness. So who can tolerate a wounded spirit? 15 The mind of the prudent acquires knowledge. The ear of the wise one searches for knowledge. 16 A man's gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men. 17 The first to present his cause seems right. But another comes and examines him. 18 The cast lot causes contentions to cease and decides between the mighty ones. 19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city. Their arguments are like the bars of a castle. 20 A man's stomach will be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth. He will be filled with the produce from his lips. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue. Those who love it will eat the fruit. 22 The man who finds a wife finds a good thing. He obtains favor from Jehovah. 23 The poor man requests and the rich man answers out of greed. 24 A man with friends must be friendly! A friend sticks closer than a brother.
ISV(i) 1 How Fools Talk Whoever isolates himself pursues selfish ends; he resists all sound advice. 2 A fool finds no satisfaction in trying to understand, for he would rather express his own opinion. 3 When an evil person comes, contempt also comes, along with dishonor and disgrace. 4 The words a man says are as deep waters— a fountain of wisdom is an overflowing stream. 5 It’s not good to be partial towards an evil person, thereby depriving the righteous of justice. 6 A fool’s words bring strife, and his mouth invites fighting. 7 A fool’s mouth is his unraveling, and his lips entrap himself. 8 The words of a gossip are like choice morsels as they descend to the innermost parts of the body.
9 Avoiding Fools and Their FoolishnessWhoever is lazy regarding his work is also a brother to the master of destruction. 10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; a righteous person rushes to it and is lifted up above the danger. 11 The wealth of a rich person is his fortified city; in his own imagination, it is like a high wall. 12 Before a man’s downfall, his mind is arrogant, but humility precedes honor. 13 Whoever answers before listening is both foolish and shameful. 14 A man’s spirit can sustain him during his illness, but who can bear a crushed spirit? 15 The mind of a discerning person gains knowledge, while the ears of wise people seek out knowledge. 16 A person’s gift opens doors for him, bringing him access to important people. 17 The first to put forth his case seems right, until someone else steps forward and cross-examines him. 18 Casting dice settles a dispute, deciding between strong contenders. 19 An offended brother is more unyielding than a fortified city, and his disputes are like the bars of a fortress. 20 The positive words that a man speaks fill his stomach; he will be satisfied with what his lips produce. 21 The power of the tongue is life and death— those who love to talk will eat what it produces. 22 Whoever finds a wife finds what is good, and receives favor from the LORD. 23 The poor person pleads for mercy, but the wealthy man responds harshly. 24 A man with many friends can still be ruined, but a true friend sticks closer than a brother.
LEB(i) 1 He who is selfish seeks a craving;* against all sound judgment he shows contempt. 2 A fool will not take pleasure in understanding, but in expressing his heart.* 3 With the coming of wickedness comes contempt also, and with dishonor, disgrace. 4 Deep waters are words of the mouth of a man; a gushing stream is a fountain of wisdom. 5 Being partial to faces of evil is not good, nor to subvert the righteous at the judgment. 6 The lips of a fool will bring strife, and his mouth calls out for a flogging. 7 The mouth of a fool is ruin to him, and his lips are a snare to his soul.* 8 The words of a whisper are like delicious morsels, and they themselves go down to inner parts of the body. 9 Even he who is slack in his work, he is brother to a master* of destruction. 10 A tower of strength is the name of Yahweh; into him* the righteous will run and be safe. 11 The wealth of the rich is ⌊his strong city⌋,* and like a wall, it is high in his imagination. 12 In the presence of destruction, the heart* of a man will be haughty, but in the presence of honor, humble. 13 He who returns a word before he will hear, folly itself belongs to him as well as* shame. 14 The spirit of a man will endure his sickness, but a broken spirit, who may bear it? 15 An intelligent ⌊mind⌋* will acquire knowledge, and the ear of the wise will seek knowledge. 16 The gift of a person will open doors for him, and before the great, it gives him access. 17 The first in his dispute is deemed righteous, but his neighbor will come and examine him. 18 The lot will put an end to disputes, and between powerful contenders it will decide. 19 A brother who is offended is worse than a city of strength, and quarrels are like the bars of a fortification. 20 From the fruit of a man's mouth, his stomach will be satisfied, as for the yield of his lips, it will satisfy. 21 Death and life are in the ⌊power⌋* of the tongue, and those who love her* will eat of her fruit. 22 He who finds a wife* finds good, and he will obtain favor from Yahweh. 23 The poor may speak entreaties, but the rich will answer roughly. 24 A man of many friends will come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
BSB(i) 1 He who isolates himself pursues selfish desires; he rebels against all sound judgment. 2 A fool does not delight in understanding, but only in airing his opinions. 3 With a wicked man comes contempt as well, and shame is accompanied by disgrace. 4 The words of a man’s mouth are deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook. 5 Showing partiality to the wicked is not good, nor is depriving the innocent of justice. 6 A fool’s lips bring him strife, and his mouth invites a beating. 7 A fool’s mouth is his ruin, and his lips are a snare to his soul. 8 The words of a gossip are like choice morsels that go down into the inmost being. 9 Whoever is slothful in his work is brother to him who destroys. 10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. 11 A rich man’s wealth is his fortified city; it is like a high wall in his imagination. 12 Before his downfall a man’s heart is proud, but humility comes before honor. 13 He who answers a matter before he hears it—this is folly and disgrace to him. 14 The spirit of a man can endure his sickness, but who can survive a broken spirit? 15 The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks it out. 16 A man’s gift opens doors for him, and brings him before great men. 17 The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him. 18 Casting the lot ends quarrels and separates strong opponents. 19 An offended brother is harder to win than a fortified city, and disputes are like the bars of a castle. 20 From the fruit of his mouth a man’s belly is filled; with the harvest from his lips he is satisfied. 21 Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. 22 He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD. 23 The poor man pleads for mercy, but the rich man answers harshly. 24 A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who stays closer than a brother.

VIN(i) 1 An unfriendly man pursues selfishness, and defies all sound judgment. 2 A fool has no delight in understanding, but only in revealing his own opinion. 3 When wickedness comes, contempt also comes, and with shame comes disgrace. 4 The words of a man`s mouth are deep waters, [and] the fountain of wisdom is a gushing brook. 5 It is not good to be partial to the wicked, or to overthrow the righteous in judgment. 6 A fool's lips come into strife, and his mouth invites beatings. 7 A fool's mouth is ruin to him, and his lips are a snare to his soul. 8 The words of a gossip are like tasty morsels: they go down into a person's innermost parts. 9 Also he who is slack in his work is brother to a great destroyer. 10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are safe. 11 The wealth of a rich person is his fortified city; in his own imagination, it is like a high wall. 12 Before shattering, a man's heart is haughty, but humility goes before honor. 13 He who answers before he hears, that is folly and shame to him. 14 A man's spirit will sustain him in sickness, but a crushed spirit, who can bear? 15 The heart of the discerning gets knowledge; the ear of the wise seeks knowledge. 16 A man's gift widens the way for him, And guides him before the great." 17 The first to present his cause seems right. But another comes and examines him. 18 The lot settles disputes, and keeps strong ones apart. 19 An offended brother is more unyielding than a fortified city, and his disputes are like the bars of a fortress. 20 With the fruits of his mouth a man filleth his belly, and with the fruits of his lips he shall be satisfied. 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it shall eat its fruit. 22 Whoever finds a wife finds what is good, and receives favor from the LORD. 23 The poor plead for mercy, but the rich answer harshly. 24 A man of many companions may be ruined, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
Luther1545(i) 1 Wer sich absondert, der sucht, was ihn gelüstet, und setzt sich wider alles, was gut ist. 2 Ein Narr hat nicht Lust am Verstand, sondern was in seinem Herzen steckt. 3 Wo der Gottlose hinkommt, da kommt Verachtung und Schmach mit Hohn. 4 Die Worte in eines Munde sind wie tiefe Wasser, und die Quelle der Weisheit ist ein voller Strom. 5 Es ist nicht gut, die Person des Gottlosen achten, zu beugen den Gerechten im Gericht. 6 Die Lippen des Narren bringen Zank, und sein Mund ringet nach Schlägen. 7 Der Mund des Narren schadet ihm selbst, und seine Lippen fahen seine eigene Seele. 8 Die Worte des Verleumders sind Schläge und gehen einem durchs Herz. 9 Wer laß ist in seiner Arbeit, der ist ein Bruder des, der das Seine umbringet. 10 Der Name des HERRN ist ein festes Schloß; der Gerechte läuft dahin und wird beschirmet. 11 Das Gut des Reichen ist ihm eine feste Stadt und wie eine hohe Mauer um ihn her. 12 Wenn einer zugrund gehen soll, wird sein Herz zuvor stolz; und ehe man zu Ehren kommt, muß man zuvor leiden. 13 Wer antwortet, ehe er höret, dem ist's Narrheit und Schande. 14 Wer ein fröhlich Herz hat, der weiß sich in seinem Leiden zu halten; wenn aber der Mut liegt, wer kann's tragen? 15 Ein verständig Herz weiß sich vernünftiglich zu halten, und die Weisen hören gern, daß man vernünftiglich handelt. 16 Das Geschenk des Menschen macht ihm Raum und bringt ihn vor die großen HERREN. 17 Der Gerechte ist seiner Sache zuvor gewiß; kommt sein Nächster, so findet er ihn also. 18 Das Los stillet den Hader und scheidet zwischen den Mächtigen. 19 Ein verletzter Bruder hält härter denn eine feste Stadt; und Zank hält härter denn Riegel am Palast. 20 Einem Mann wird vergolten, danach sein Mund geredet hat, und wird gesättiget von der Frucht seiner Lippen. 21 Tod und Leben steht in der Zunge Gewalt; wer sie liebet, der wird von ihrer Frucht essen. 22 Wer eine Ehefrau findet, der findet was Gutes und bekommt Wohlgefallen vom HERRN. 23 Ein Armer redet mit Flehen; ein Reicher antwortet stolz. 24 Ein treuer Freund liebet mehr und steht fester bei denn ein Bruder.

  10 H8034 De Naam H3068 des HEEREN H5797 is een Sterke H4026 Toren H6662 ; de rechtvaardige H7323 H8799 zal daarhenen lopen H7682 H8738 , en in een Hoog Vertrek gesteld worden.
  11 H6223 Des rijken H1952 goed H7151 is de stad H5797 zijner sterkte H7682 H8737 , en als een verheven H2346 muur H4906 in zijn inbeelding.
  12 H6440 Voor H7667 de verbreking H376 zal des mensen H3820 hart H1361 H8799 zich verheffen H6038 ; en de nederigheid H6440 gaat voor H3519 de eer.
  13 H7725 H8688 Die antwoord geeft H1697 H8085 H8799 , eer hij zal gehoord hebben H200 , dat is hem dwaasheid H3639 en schande.
  14 H7307 De geest H376 eens mans H4245 zal zijn krankheid H3557 H8770 ondersteunen H5218 ; maar een verslagen H7307 geest H5375 H8799 , wie zal dien opheffen?
  15 H3820 Het hart H995 H8737 der verstandigen H7069 H8799 bekomt H1847 wetenschap H241 , en het oor H2450 der wijzen H1245 H8762 zoekt H1847 wetenschap.
  16 H4976 De gift H120 des mensen H7337 H8686 maakt hem ruimte H5148 H8686 , en zij geleidt H6440 hem voor het aangezicht H1419 der groten.
  17 H7223 Die de eerste H7379 is in zijn twistzaak H6662 , [schijnt] rechtvaardig H7453 te zijn; maar zijn naaste H935 H8804 H8675 H935 H8799 komt H2713 H8804 , en hij onderzoekt hem.
  18 H1486 Het lot H4079 doet de geschillen H7673 H8686 ophouden H6504 H8686 , en maakt scheiding H6099 tussen machtigen.
  19 H251 Een broeder H6586 H8737 is wederspanniger H5797 dan een sterke H7151 stad H4079 H8675 H4066 ; en de geschillen H1280 zijn als een grendel H759 van een paleis.
  20 H6529 Van de vrucht H376 van ieders H6310 mond H990 zal zijn buik H7646 H8799 verzadigd worden H7646 H8799 ; hij zal verzadigd worden H8393 van de inkomst H8193 zijner lippen.
  21 H4194 Dood H2416 en leven H3027 zijn in het geweld H3956 der tong H157 H8802 ; en een ieder, die ze liefheeft H6529 , zal haar vrucht H398 H8799 eten.
  22 H802 Die een vrouw H4672 H8804 gevonden heeft H2896 , heeft een goede H4672 H8804 zaak gevonden H7522 , en hij heeft welgevallen H6329 H8686 getrokken H3068 van den HEERE.
  23 H7326 H8802 De arme H1696 H8762 spreekt H8469 smekingen H6223 ; maar de rijke H6030 H8799 antwoordt H5794 harde dingen.
  24 H376 Een man H7453 , die vrienden H7489 H8710 heeft, heeft zich vriendelijk te houden H3426 ; want er is H157 H8802 een liefhebber H1695 , die meer aankleeft H251 dan een broeder.
Giguet(i) 1 ¶ L’homme qui veut rompre avec ses amis cherche des prétextes, et en tout temps il sera digne de blâme. 2 ¶ Celui qui manque de sens n’a que faire de la sagesse; il est plutôt conduit par la folie. 3 ¶ Lorsque l’impie est tombé en un abîme de fautes, il n’en tient compte; mais la honte et les ignominies lui arrivent. 4 ¶ La parole dans le cœur de l’homme est une eau profonde; un fleuve en jaillit, et une fontaine de vie. 5 ¶ Il n’est pas bien d’avoir égard à la parole de l’impie; se détourner de l’équité dans la jeunesse est une impiété. 6 ¶ Les lèvres de l’insensé le mènent à mal, et sa bouche hardie appelle la mort. 7 La bouche de l’insensé est sa ruine; ses lèvres sont un piège pour son âme. 8 ¶ La crainte abat les paresseux; les âmes des efféminés sont toujours affamées. 9 ¶ Qui n’a point d’ardeur en ses travaux est frère de celui qui se détruit lui-même. 10 ¶ Le Nom du Seigneur est d’une force toute-puissante; les justes qui courent à Lui sont glorifiés. 11 ¶ Les biens du riche sont une forteresse; sa gloire projette au loin de l’ombre. 12 ¶ Le cœur de l’homme s’exalte avant d’être brisé; ils s’humilie avant d’être glorifié. 13 ¶ Répondre avant d’avoir entendu, c’est insensé et blâmable. 14 ¶ Un serviteur prudent apaise la colère de l’homme; qui peut supporter un homme pusillanime? 15 ¶ Le cœur de l’homme sensé possède la doctrine; les oreilles du sage cherchent l’intelligence. 16 ¶ Les présents que fait un homme le grandissent et le font siéger parmi les puissants. 17 ¶ Le juste s’accuse le premier; mais s’il est ensuite attaqué, c’est son adversaire qu’on blâme. 18 ¶ L’homme silencieux apaise les contradictions; il juge entre les puissants. 19 ¶ Un frère, soutenu par son frère, est comme une puissante et haute cité; il est fort comme un palais solidement bâti. 20 ¶ L’homme remplit ses entrailles des fruits de sa bouche, et se rassasiera du fruit de ses lèvres. 21 ¶ La mort et la vie sont au pouvoir de la langue; ceux qui la maîtrisent mangeront ses fruits. 22 ¶ Celui qui a trouvé une femme bonne a trouvé des grâces; il a reçu de Dieu l’allégresse. Celui qui répudie une femme bonne répudie une bonne fortune; celui qui garde une adultère est impie et insensé. 2324
DarbyFR(i) 1
Celui qui se tient à l'écart recherche ce qui lui plaît; il conteste contre toute sagesse. 2
Le sot ne prend pas plaisir à l'intelligence, mais à ce que son coeur soit manifesté. 3
Quand vient le méchant, le mépris vient aussi, et avec l'ignominie, l'opprobre. 4
Les paroles de la bouche d'un homme sont des eaux profondes, et la fontaine de la sagesse est un torrent qui coule. 5
Ce n'est pas bien d'avoir acception de la personne du méchant pour faire frustrer le juste dans le jugement. 6
Les lèvres du sot entrent en dispute, et sa bouche appelle les coups. 7 La bouche du sot est sa ruine, et ses lèvres sont un piège pour son âme. 8
Les paroles du rapporteur sont comme des friandises, et elles descendent jusqu'au dedans des entrailles. 9
Celui-là aussi qui est lâche dans son ouvrage est frère du destructeur. 10
Le nom de l'Éternel est une forte tour; le juste y court et s'y trouve en une haute retraite. 11
Les biens du riche sont sa ville forte, et comme une haute muraille, dans son imagination. 12
Avant la ruine le coeur de l'homme s'élève, et la débonnaireté va devant la gloire. 13
Répondre avant d'avoir entendu, c'est un folie et une confusion pour qui le fait. 14
L'esprit d'un homme soutient son infirmité; mais l'esprit abattu, qui le supportera? 15
Le coeur de l'homme intelligent acquiert la connaissance, et l'oreille des sages cherche la connaissance. 16
Le don d'un homme lui fait faire place et l'introduit devant les grands. 17
Celui qui est le premier dans son procès est juste; son prochain vient, et l'examine. 18
Le sort fait cesser les querelles et sépare les puissants. 19
Un frère offensé est plus difficile à gagner qu'une ville forte, et les querelles sont comme les verrous d'un palais. 20
Le ventre d'un homme est rassasié du fruit de sa bouche; du revenu de ses lèvres il est rassasié. 21
La mort et la vie sont au pouvoir de la langue, et celui qui l'aime mangera de son fruit. 22
Celui qui a trouvé un femme a trouvé une bonne chose, et il a obtenu faveur de la part de l'Éternel. 23
Le pauvre parle en supplications, mais le riche répond des choses dures. 24
L'homme qui a beaucoup de compagnons va se ruinant; mais il est tel ami plus attaché qu'un frère.
Martin(i) 1 L'homme particulier cherche ce qui lui fait plaisir, et se mêle de savoir comment tout doit aller. 2 Le fou ne prend point plaisir à l'intelligence, mais à ce que son coeur soit manifesté. 3 Quand le méchant vient, le mépris vient aussi, et le reproche avec l'ignominie. 4 Les paroles de la bouche d'un digne personnage sont comme des eaux profondes; et la source de la sagesse est un torrent qui bouillonne. 5 Il n'est pas bon d'avoir égard à l'apparence de la personne du méchant, pour renverser le juste en jugement. 6 Les lèvres du fou entrent en querelle, et sa bouche appelle les combats. 7 La bouche du fou lui est une ruine, et ses lèvres sont un piège à son âme. 8 Les paroles du flatteur sont comme de ceux qui ne font pas semblant d'y toucher, mais elles descendent jusqu'au dedans du ventre. 9 Celui aussi qui se porte lâchement dans son ouvrage, est frère de celui qui dissipe ce qu'il a. 10 Le nom de l'Eternel est une forte tour, le juste y courra, et il y sera en une haute retraite. 11 Les biens du riche sont la ville de sa force, et comme une haute muraille de retraite, selon son imagination. 12 Le coeur de l'homme s'élève avant que la ruine arrive; mais l'humilité précède la gloire. 13 Celui qui répond à quelque propos avant que de l' avoir ouï, c'est à lui une folie et une confusion. 14 L'esprit d'un homme fort soutiendra son infirmité; mais l'esprit abattu, qui le relèvera ? 15 Le coeur de l'homme intelligent acquiert de la science, et l'oreille des sages cherche la science. 16 Le présent d'un homme lui fait faire place, et le conduit devant les grands. 17 Celui qui plaide le premier, est juste; mais sa partie vient, et examine le tout. 18 Le sort fait cesser les procès, et fait les partages entre les puissants. 19 Un frère offensé se rend plus difficile qu'une ville forte, et les discordes en sont comme les verrous d'un palais. 20 Le ventre de chacun sera rassasié du fruit de sa bouche; il sera rassasié du revenu de ses lèvres. 21 La mort et la vie sont au pouvoir de la langue, et celui qui l'aime mangera de ses fruits. 22 Celui qui trouve une digne femme trouve le bien, et il a obtenu une faveur de l'Eternel. 23 Le pauvre ne prononce que des supplications, mais le riche ne répond que des paroles rudes. 24 Que l'homme qui a des intimes amis, se tienne à leur amitié; parce qu'il y a tel ami qui est plus attaché que le frère.
Segond(i) 1 Celui qui se tient à l'écart cherche ce qui lui plaît, Il s'irrite contre tout ce qui est sage. 2 Ce n'est pas à l'intelligence que l'insensé prend plaisir, C'est à la manifestation de ses pensées. 3 Quand vient le méchant, vient aussi le mépris; Et avec la honte, vient l'opprobre. 4 Les paroles de la bouche d'un homme sont des eaux profondes; La source de la sagesse est un torrent qui jaillit. 5 Il n'est pas bon d'avoir égard à la personne du méchant, Pour faire tort au juste dans le jugement. 6 Les lèvres de l'insensé se mêlent aux querelles, Et sa bouche provoque les coups. 7 La bouche de l'insensé cause sa ruine, Et ses lèvres sont un piège pour son âme. 8 Les paroles du rapporteur sont comme des friandises, Elles descendent jusqu'au fond des entrailles. 9 Celui qui se relâche dans son travail Est frère de celui qui détruit. 10 Le nom de l'Eternel est une tour forte; Le juste s'y réfugie, et se trouve en sûreté. 11 La fortune est pour le riche une ville forte; Dans son imagination, c'est une haute muraille. 12 Avant la ruine, le coeur de l'homme s'élève; Mais l'humilité précède la gloire. 13 Celui qui répond avant d'avoir écouté Fait un acte de folie et s'attire la confusion. 14 L'esprit de l'homme le soutient dans la maladie; Mais l'esprit abattu, qui le relèvera? 15 Un coeur intelligent acquiert la science, Et l'oreille des sages cherche la science. 16 Les présents d'un homme lui élargissent la voie, Et lui donnent accès auprès des grands. 17 Le premier qui parle dans sa cause paraît juste; Vient sa partie adverse, et on l'examine. 18 Le sort fait cesser les contestations, Et décide entre les puissants. 19 Des frères sont plus intraitables qu'une ville forte, Et leurs querelles sont comme les verrous d'un palais. 20 C'est du fruit de sa bouche que l'homme rassasie son corps, C'est du produit de ses lèvres qu'il se rassasie. 21 La mort et la vie sont au pouvoir de la langue; Quiconque l'aime en mangera les fruits. 22 Celui qui trouve une femme trouve le bonheur; C'est une grâce qu'il obtient de l'Eternel. 23 Le pauvre parle en suppliant, Et le riche répond avec dureté. 24 Celui qui a beaucoup d'amis les a pour son malheur, Mais il est tel ami plus attaché qu'un frère.

SE(i) 1 Segun su antojo busca el que se desvía; en toda doctrina se envolverá. 2 No toma placer el loco en la inteligencia, sino en lo que descubre su corazón. 3 Cuando viene el impío, viene también el menosprecio, y con el deshonrador la afrenta. 4 Aguas profundas son las palabras de la boca del hombre; y arroyo revertiente, la fuente de la sabiduría. 5 Tener respeto a la persona del impío, para hacer caer al justo de su derecho, no es bueno. 6 Los labios del loco vienen con pleito; y su boca a plaga llama. 7 La boca del loco es quebrantamiento para sí, y sus labios son lazos para su alma. 8 Las palabras del chismoso parecen blandas, mas ellas descienden hasta lo íntimo del vientre. 9 También el que es negligente en su obra es hermano del dueño disipador. 10 Torre fuerte es el nombre del SEÑOR; a él correrá el justo, y será levantado. 11 Las riquezas del rico son la ciudad de su fortaleza, y como un muro alto en su imaginación. 12 Antes del quebrantamiento se eleva el corazón del hombre, y antes de la honra es el abatimiento. 13 El que responde palabra antes de oír, le es locura y oprobio. 14 El ánimo del hombre soportará su enfermedad; mas ¿quién soportará al ánimo angustiado? 15 El corazón del entendido adquiere sabiduría; y el oído de los sabios busca la ciencia. 16 La dádiva del hombre le ensancha el camino, y le lleva delante de los grandes. 17 El justo es el primero en su pleito; y su adversario viene, y le busca. 18 La suerte pone fin a los pleitos, y desparte los fuertes. 19 El hermano ofendido es más tenaz que una ciudad fuerte; y las contiendas de los hermanos son como cerrojos de alcázar. 20 Del fruto de la boca del hombre se llenará su vientre; se saciará del producto de sus labios. 21 La muerte y la vida están en poder de la lengua; y el que la ama comerá de sus frutos. 22 El que halló esposa halló el bien, y alcanzó la benevolencia del SEÑOR. 23 El pobre habla con ruegos; mas el rico responde durezas. 24 El hombre que tiene amigos, ha de mostrarse amigo; y amigo hay más unido que un hermano.

Albanian(i) 1 Kush veçohet kërkon kënaqësinë e tij dhe zemërohet kundër gjithë diturisë së vërtetë. 2 Budallai nuk gjen kënaqësi te maturia, por vetëm në të vënit në dukje të zemrës së tij. 3 Kur vjen i pabesi vjen edhe përçmimi dhe bashkë me humbjen e nderit vjen turpi. 4 Fjalët e gojës së një njeriu janë ujëra të thella; burimi i diturisë është si një rrjedhë uji që shkon duke gurgulluar. 5 Nuk është mirë të preferosh të pabesin, apo të shkaktosh humbjen e të drejtit në gjyq. 6 Buzët e budallait të çojnë në grindje, dhe goja e tij kërkon goditje. 7 Goja e budallait është shkatërrimi i tij dhe buzët e tij janë një lak për jetën e tij. 8 Fjalët e shpifësit janë si një gjellë shumë e shijshme që zbret thellë në zorrë. 9 Edhe ai që është përtac në punën e tij është vëlla i planprishësit. 10 Emri i Zotit është një kala e fortë, tek ai turret i drejti dhe gjen siguri. 11 Pasuria e kamësit është qyteti i tij i fortë dhe simbas mendimit të tij ajo është si një mur i lartë. 12 Përpara shkatërrimit, zemra e njeriut ngrihet, por para lavdisë vjen përulësia. 13 Kush jep përgjigje për një çështje para se ta ketë dëgjuar, tregon marrëzinë e tij për turp të vet. 14 Fryma e njeriut i jep krahë në sëmundjen e tij, por kush mund ta ngrerë një frymë të demoralizuar? 15 Zemra e njeriut të matur fiton dituri, edhe veshi i të urtëve kërkon diturinë. 16 Dhurata e njeriut i hap rrugën dhe e çon në prani të të mëdhenjve. 17 I pari që mbron çështjen e vet duket sikur ka të drejtë; por pastaj vjen tjetri dhe e shqyrton. 18 Fati u jep fund grindjeve dhe i ndan të fuqishmit. 19 Një vëlla i fyer është si një qytet i fortë; dhe grindjet janë si shulat e një kalaje. 20 Njeriu e ngop barkun me frytin e gojës së tij, ai ngopet me prodhimin e buzëve të tij. 21 Vdekja dhe jeta janë nën pushtetin e gjuhës; ata që e duan do të hanë frytet e saj. 22 Kush ka gjetur grua ka gjetur një gjë të mirë dhe ka siguruar një favor nga Zoti. 23 I varfëri flet duke u lutur, kurse i pasuri përgjigjet me ashpërsi. 24 Njeriu që ka shumë miq duhet gjithashtu të tregohet mik, por është një mik që është më i lidhur se një vëlla.
RST(i) 1 Прихоти ищет своенравный, восстает против всего умного. 2 Глупый не любит знания, а только бы выказать свой ум. 3 С приходом нечестивого приходит и презрение, а с бесславием – поношение. 4 Слова уст человеческих – глубокие воды; источник мудрости – струящийся поток. 5 Нехорошо быть лицеприятным к нечестивому, чтобы ниспровергнуть праведного на суде. 6 Уста глупого идут в ссору, и слова его вызывают побои. 7 Язык глупого – гибель для него, и уста его – сеть для души его. 8 Слова наушника – как лакомства, и они входят во внутренность чрева. 9 Нерадивый в работе своей – брат расточителю. 10 Имя Господа – крепкая башня: убегает в нее праведник – и безопасен. 11 Имение богатого – крепкий город его, и как высокая ограда в его воображении. 12 Перед падением возносится сердце человека, а смирение предшествует славе. 13 Кто дает ответ не выслушав, тот глуп, и стыд ему. 14 Дух человека переносит его немощи; а пораженный дух – кто может подкрепить его? 15 Сердце разумного приобретает знание, и ухо мудрых ищет знания. 16 Подарок у человека дает ему простор и до вельмождоведет его. 17 Первый в тяжбе своей прав, но приходит соперник его и исследывает его. 18 Жребий прекращает споры и решает между сильными. 19 Озлобившийся брат неприступнее крепкого города, и ссорыподобны запорам замка. 20 От плода уст человека наполняется чрево его; произведением устсвоих он насыщается. 21 Смерть и жизнь – во власти языка, и любящие его вкусят от плодов его. 22 Кто нашел добрую жену, тот нашел благо и получил благодать от Господа. 23 С мольбою говорит нищий, а богатый отвечает грубо. 24 Кто хочет иметь друзей, тот и сам должен быть дружелюбным; и бываетдруг, более привязанный, нежели брат.
Arabic(i) 1 المعتزل يطلب شهوته. بكل مشورة يغتاظ. 2 الجاهل لا يسرّ بالفهم بل بكشف قلبه. 3 اذا جاء الشرير جاء الاحتقار ايضا ومع الهوان عار. 4 كلمات فم الانسان مياه عميقة. نبع الحكمة نهر مندفق. 5 رفع وجه الشرير ليس حسنا لاخطاء الصدّيق في القضاء. 6 شفتا الجاهل تداخلان في الخصومة وفمه يدعو بضربات. 7 فم الجاهل مهلكة له وشفتاه شرك لنفسه. 8 كلام النمّام مثل لقم حلوة وهو ينزل الى مخادع البطن. 9 ايضا المتراخي في عمله هو اخو المسرف 10 اسم الرب برج حصين. يركض اليه الصدّيق ويتمنّع. 11 ثروة الغني مدينته الحصينة ومثل سور عال في تصوره. 12 قبل الكسر يتكبر قلب الانسان وقبل الكرامة التواضع. 13 من يجيب عن امر قبل ان يسمعه فله حماقة وعار. 14 روح الانسان تحتمل مرضه. اما الروح المكسورة فمن يحملها. 15 قلب الفهيم يقتني معرفة واذن الحكماء تطلب علما. 16 هدية الانسان ترحب له وتهديه الى امام العظماء. 17 الاول في دعواه محق. فياتي رفيقه ويفحصه. 18 القرعة تبطل الخصومات وتفصل بين الاقوياء. 19 الاخ امنع من مدينة حصينة والمخاصمات كعارضة قلعة 20 من ثمر فم الانسان يشبع بطنه. من غلة شفتيه يشبع. 21 الموت والحياة في يد اللسان واحباؤه ياكلون ثمره. 22 من يجد زوجة يجد خيرا وينال رضى من الرب. 23 بتضرعات يتكلم الفقير. والغني يجاوب بخشونة. 24 المكثر الاصحاب يخرب نفسه. ولكن يوجد محب ألزق من الاخ
Bulgarian(i) 1 Човек, който се отлъчва, търси своето си желание и се противи на всеки здрав разум. 2 Безумният не се наслаждава на благоразумието, а само на това — да изявява сърцето си. 3 С идването на безбожния идва и презрение и с позора идва и безчестие. 4 Думите от устата на човека са дълбоки води, изворът на мъдростта е бликащ поток. 5 Не е добре да се показва пристрастие към безбожния, за да се онеправдава праведният в съда. 6 Устните на безумния причиняват препирня и устата му предизвиква бой. 7 Устата на безумния е гибел за него и устните му са примка на душата му. 8 Думите на клюкаря са като сладки залъци и слизат вътре в корема. 9 Който е небрежен в работата си, е брат на разсипника. 10 Името на ГОСПОДА е здрава кула, праведният прибягва в нея и е в безопасност. 11 Имотът на богатия е неговият укрепен град и е като висока стена във въображението му. 12 Преди гибелта сърцето на човека се превъзнася, а смирението предхожда славата. 13 Да отговаря някой, преди да чуе, е безумие и позор за него. 14 Духът на човека ще го подкрепя в немощта му, но кой ще повдигне унилия дух? 15 Сърцето на благоразумния придобива разум и ухото на мъдрите търси знание. 16 Подаръкът на човека му отваря място и го довежда пред големци. 17 Първият, който защищава делото си, изглежда прав, но идва ближният му и го изпитва. 18 Жребият прекратява разприте и решава между силните. 19 Излъган брат е по-недостъпен от укрепен град и разногласията са като резета на крепост. 20 От плодовете на устата на човека ще се насити коремът му, от произведението на устните си ще се насити. 21 Смърт и живот има в силата на езика и които го обичат, ще ядат плодовете му. 22 Който е намерил добра жена, е намерил добро и е получил благоволение от ГОСПОДА. 23 Сиромахът говори с умолявания, а богатият отговаря грубо. 24 Човек с много приятели, идва до унищожение, но има приятел, по-близък и от брат.
Croatian(i) 1 Vlastitoj požudi popušta onaj tko zastranjuje, i svađa se usprkos svakom razboru. 2 Bezumnomu nije mio razum; stalo mu je dati srcu oduška. 3 Kad dolazi opačina, dolazi i prezir i bruka sa sramotom. 4 Duboke su vode riječi iz usta nečijih, izvor mudrosti bujica što se razlijeva. 5 Ne valja se obazirati na opaku osobu, da se pravedniku nanese nepravda na sudu. 6 Bezumnikove se usne upuštaju u svađu i njegova usta izazivlju udarce. 7 Bezumnomu su propast vlastita usta i usne su mu zamka životu. 8 Klevetnikove su riječi kao poslastice: spuštaju se u dno utrobe. 9 Tko je nemaran u svom poslu, brat je onomu koji rasipa. 10 Tvrda je kula ime Jahvino: njemu se pravednik utječe i nalazi utočišta. 11 Bogatstvo je bogatašu njegova tvrđava i kao visok zid u mašti njegovoj. 12 Pred slomom se oholi srce čovječje, a pred slavom ide poniznost. 13 Tko odgovara prije nego što sasluša, na ludost mu je i sramotu. 14 Kad je čovjek bolestan, njegov ga duh podiže, a ubijen duh tko će podići? 15 Razumno srce stječe znanje i uho mudrih traži znanje. 16 Dar čovjeku otvara put i vodi ga pred velikaše. 17 Prvi je pravedan u svojoj parnici, a kad dođe njegov protivnik, opovrgne ga. 18 Ždrijeb poravna svađe, pa i među moćnicima odlučuje. 19 Uvrijeđen brat jači je od tvrda grada i svađe su kao prijevornice na tvrđavi. 20 Svatko siti trbuh plodom usta svojih, nasićuje se rodom usana svojih. 21 Smrt i život u vlasti su jeziku, a tko ga miluje, jede od ploda njegova. 22 Tko je našao ženu, našao je sreću i stekao milost od Jahve. 23 Ponizno moleći govori siromah, a grubo odgovara bogataš. 24 Ima prijatelja koji vode u propast, a ima i prijatelja privrženijih od brata.
BKR(i) 1 Svémyslný hledá toho, což se jemu líbí, a ve všelijakou věc plete se. 2 Nezalibuje sobě blázen v rozumnosti, ale v tom, což zjevuje srdce jeho. 3 Když přijde bezbožný, přichází také pohrdání, a s lehkomyslným útržka. 4 Slova úst muže vody hluboké, potok rozvodnilý pramen moudrosti. 5 Přijímati osobu bezbožného není dobré, abys převrátil spravedlivého v soudu. 6 Rtové blázna směřují k svadě, a ústa jeho bití se domluví. 7 Ústa blázna k setření jemu, a rtové jeho osídlem duši jeho. 8 Slova utrhače jsou jako ubitých, ale však sstupují do vnitřností života. 9 Také ten, kdož jest nedbalý v práci své, bratr jest mrhače. 10 Věže pevná jest jméno Hospodinovo; k němu se uteče spravedlivý, a bude povýšen. 11 Zboží bohatého jest město pevné jeho, a jako zed vysoká v mysli jeho. 12 Před setřením vyvyšuje se srdce člověka, ale před povýšením bývá ponížení. 13 Kdož odpovídá něco, prvé než vyslyší, počítá se to za bláznovství jemu a za lehkost. 14 Duch muže snáší nemoc svou, ducha pak zkormouceného kdo snese? 15 Srdce rozumného dosahuje umění, a ucho moudrých hledá umění. 16 Dar člověka uprostranňuje jemu, a před oblíčej mocných přivodí jej. 17 Spravedlivý zdá se ten, kdož jest první v své při, ale když přichází bližní jeho, tedy stihá jej. 18 Los pokojí svady, a mezi silnými rozeznává. 19 Bratr křivdou uražený tvrdší jest než město nedobyté, a svárové jsou jako závora u hradu. 20 Ovocem úst jednoho každého nasyceno bývá břicho jeho, úrodou rtů svých nasycen bude. 21 Smrt i život jest v moci jazyka, a ten, kdož jej miluje, bude jísti ovoce jeho. 22 Kdo nalezl manželku, nalezl věc dobrou, a navážil lásky od Hospodina. 23 Poníženě mluví chudý, ale bohatý odpovídá tvrdě. 24 Ten, kdož má přátely, má se míti přátelsky, poněvadž přítel bývá vlastnější než bratr.
Danish(i) 1 Særlingen søger sin egen Lyst; han vælter sig ind paa alt det, som staar fast. 2 Daaren har ikke Behag i Forstand, men deri, at hans Hjerte aabenbarer sig. 3 Naar en ugudelig kommer, kommer ogsaa Foragt og med Skammen Forhaanelse. 4 Ord i en Mands Mund ere dybe Vande, en sprudlende Bæk Visdoms Kilde. 5 Det er ikke godt at anse den ugudeliges Person, at gøre en retfærdig Uret i Dommen. 6 Daarens Læber blande sig i Trætte, og hans Mund raaber efter Slag. 7 Daarens Mund er en Fordærvelse for ham selv, og hans Læber ere en Snare for hans Sjæl. 8 En Bagvadskers Ord lyde som Skæmt, dog trænge de ind i inderste Bug. 9 Ogsaa den, som er efterladen i sin Gerning, er Broder til den, som er en Ødeland. 10 HERRENS Navn er et fast Taarn, den retfærdige løber til det og bliver beskyttet. 11 Den riges Gods er hans faste Stad og som en høj Mur i hans egen Tanke. 12 Foran Undergang hovmoder en Mands Hjerte sig; og foran Ære gaar Ydmyghed. 13 Naar nogen giver Svar, før han hører, er det ham en Daarskab og Skam. 14 En Mands Mod opholder ham i hans Sygdom; men naar Modet er nedslaaet, hvo kan bære det? 15 Den forstandiges Hjerte køber Kundskab, og de vises Øre søger efter Kundskab. 16 Et Menneskes Gave gør Rum for ham og fører ham frem for store Herrer. 17 Den, som er den første i sin mætte, synes at have Ret; men hans Modpart kommer og prøver ham. 18 Lodden gør, at Trætter ophøre, og den gør Skel imellem de mægtige. 19 En Broder er mere genstridig end en fast Stad, og Trætter med ham ere som Stænger for et Palads. 20 En Mands Bug skal mættes af hans Munds Frugt, han skal mættes af sine Læbers Frembringelser. 21 Død og Liv ere i Tungens Vold, og hvo den elsker, skal æde dens Frugt. 22 Hvo der har fundet en Hustru, har fundet en god Ting og bekommer en Velbehagelighed af HERREN. 23 Den fattige taler med ydmyg Bøn; men en rig svarer med haarde Ord. 24 En Mand med mange Venner vil finde sig ilde stedt; men der er den Ven, som hænger fnstere ved end en Broder.

CUVS(i) 1 与 众 寡 合 的 ， 独 自 寻 求 心 愿 ， 并 恼 恨 一 切 真 智 慧 。 2 愚 昧 人 不 喜 爱 明 哲 ， 只 喜 爱 显 露 心 意 。 3 恶 人 来 ， 藐 视 随 来 ； 羞 耻 到 ， 辱 骂 同 到 。 4 人 口 中 的 言 语 如 同 深 水 ； 智 慧 的 泉 源 好 象 涌 流 的 河 水 。 5 瞻 徇 恶 人 的 情 面 ， 偏 断 义 人 的 案 件 ， 都 为 不 善 。 6 愚 昧 人 张 嘴 启 争 端 ， 幵 口 招 鞭 打 。 7 愚 昧 人 的 口 自 取 败 坏 ； 他 的 嘴 是 他 生 命 的 网 罗 。 8 传 舌 人 的 言 语 如 同 美 食 ， 深 入 人 的 心 腹 。 9 做 工 懈 怠 的 ， 与 浪 费 人 为 弟 兄 。 10 耶 和 华 的 名 是 坚 固 臺 ； 义 人 奔 入 便 得 安 稳 。 11 富 足 人 的 财 物 是 他 的 坚 城 ， 在 他 心 想 ， 犹 如 高 墙 。 12 败 坏 之 先 ， 人 心 骄 傲 ； 尊 荣 以 前 ， 必 冇 谦 卑 。 13 未 曾 听 完 先 回 答 的 ， 便 是 他 的 愚 昧 和 羞 辱 。 14 人 冇 疾 病 ， 心 能 忍 耐 ； 心 灵 忧 伤 ， 谁 能 承 当 呢 ？ 15 聪 明 人 的 心 得 知 识 ； 智 慧 人 的 耳 求 知 识 。 16 人 的 礼 物 为 他 幵 路 ， 引 他 到 高 位 的 人 面 前 。 17 先 诉 情 由 的 ， 似 乎 冇 理 ； 但 邻 舍 来 到 ， 就 察 出 实 情 。 18 掣 籤 能 止 息 争 竞 ， 也 能 解 散 强 胜 的 人 。 19 弟 兄 结 怨 ， 劝 他 和 好 ， 比 取 坚 固 城 还 难 ； 这 样 的 争 竞 如 同 坚 寨 的 门 闩 。 20 人 口 中 所 结 的 果 子 ， 必 充 满 肚 腹 ； 他 嘴 所 出 的 ， 必 使 他 饱 足 。 21 生 死 在 舌 头 的 权 下 ， 喜 爱 他 的 ， 必 吃 他 所 结 的 果 子 。 22 得 着 贤 妻 的 ， 是 得 着 好 处 ， 也 是 蒙 了 耶 和 华 的 恩 惠 。 23 贫 穷 人 说 哀 求 的 话 ； 富 足 人 用 威 吓 的 话 回 答 。 24 滥 交 朋 友 的 ， 自 取 败 坏 ； 但 冇 一 朋 友 比 弟 兄 更 亲 密 。

Finnish(i) 1 Eripurainen etsii mitä hänelle kelpaa, ja sekoittaa itsensä kaikkiin asioihin. 2 Tyhmällä ei ole himo ymmärrykseen, vaan niitä ilmoittamaan, mitkä ovat hänen sydämessänsä. 3 Jumalattoman tullessa tulee ylönkatse, pilkka ja häpiä. 4 Sanat ihmisen suussa ovat niinkuin syvät vedet, ja viisauden lähde on täynnä virtaa. 5 Ei ole hyvä katsoa jumalattomain muotoa, ja sortaa vanhurskasta tuomiossa. 6 Tyhmän huulet saattavat toran, ja hänen suunsa noudattaa haavoja. 7 Tyhmän suu häpäisee itsensä, ja hänen huulensa ovat paula omalle omalle sielulle. 8 Panetteian sanat ovat haavat, ja käyvät läpi sydämen. 9 Joka laiska on työssänsä, hän on sen veli, joka vahinkoa tekee. 10 Herran nimi on vahva linna: vanhurskas juoksee sinne, ja tulee varjelluksi. 11 Rikkaan tavara on hänelle vahva kaupunki, ja niinkuin korkea muuri hänen mielestänsä. 12 Kuin joku lankee, niin hänen sydämensä ensisti tulee ylpiäksi, ja ennenkuin joku kunniaan tulee, pitää hänen nöyrän oleman.. 13 Joka vastaa ennekuin hän kuulee, se on hänelle hulluudeksi ja häpiäksi. 14 Ihmisen henki pitää ylös hänen heikkoutensa; vaan murheellista henkeä kuka voi kärsiä? 15 Ymmärtäväinen sydän saa viisauden, ja viisasten korva etsii taitoa. 16 Ihmisen lahja tekee hänelle avaran sian, ja saattaa suurten herrain eteen. 17 Jokaisella on ensisti omassa asiassansa oikeus; vaan kuin hänen lähimmäisensä tulee, niin se löydetäään. 18 Arpa asettaa riidan, ja eroitaa voimallisten vaiheella. 19 Vihoitettu veli pitää puoltansa lujemmin kuin vahva kaupunki; ja riita pitää kovemmin puolensa kuin telki linnan edessä. 20 Sen jälkeen kullekin maksetaan, kuin hänen suunsa on puhunut; ja hän ravitaan huultensa hedelmästä. 21 Kuolema ja elämä on kielen voimassa: joka häntä rakastaa, se saa syösä hänen hedelmästänsä. 22 Joka aviovaimon osaa, hän löytäää hyvän kappaleen, ja saa mielisuosionsa Herralta. 23 Köyhä mies puhuu nöyrästi, vaan rikas vastaa ylpiästi. 24 Ihminen, jolla on ystävä, pitää oleman ystävällinen; sillä ystävä pitää lujemmin hänen kanssansa kuin veli.
FinnishPR(i) 1 Eriseurainen noudattaa omia pyyteitään; kaikin neuvoin hän riitaa haastaa. 2 Tyhmän halu ei ole ymmärrykseen, vaan tuomaan julki oma mielensä. 3 Kunne jumalaton tulee, tulee ylenkatsekin, ja häpeällisen menon mukana häväistys. 4 Syviä vesiä ovat sanat miehen suusta, ovat virtaava puro ja viisauden lähde. 5 Ei ole hyvä pitää syyllisen puolta ja vääräksi vääntää syyttömän asiaa oikeudessa. 6 Tyhmän huulet tuovat mukanaan riidan, ja hänen suunsa kutsuu lyöntejä. 7 Oma suu on tyhmälle turmioksi ja omat huulet ansaksi hänelle itselleen. 8 Panettelijan puheet ovat kuin herkkupalat ja painuvat sisusten kammioihin asti. 9 Joka on veltto toimessansa, se on jo tuhontekijän veli. 10 Herran nimi on vahva torni; hurskas juoksee sinne ja saa turvan. 11 Rikkaan tavara on hänen vahva kaupunkinsa, ja korkean muurin kaltainen hänen kuvitteluissaan. 12 Kukistumisen edellä miehen sydän ylpistyy, mutta kunnian edellä käy nöyryys. 13 Jos kuka vastaa, ennenkuin on kuullut, on se hulluutta ja koituu hänelle häpeäksi. 14 Miehekäs mieli pitää sairaankin pystyssä, mutta kuka voi kantaa murtunutta mieltä? 15 Tietoa hankkii ymmärtäväisen sydän, tietoa etsii viisasten korva. 16 Lahja avartaa alat ihmiselle ja vie hänet isoisten pariin. 17 Käräjissä on kukin ensiksi oikeassa, mutta sitten tulee hänen riitapuolensa ja ottaa hänestä selvän. 18 Arpa riidat asettaa ja ratkaisee väkevien välit. 19 Petetty veli on vaikeampi voittaa kuin vahva kaupunki, ja riidat ovat kuin linnan salvat. 20 Suunsa hedelmästä saa mies vatsansa kylläiseksi, saa kyllikseen huultensa satoa. 21 Kielellä on vallassansa kuolema ja elämä; jotka sitä rakastavat, saavat syödä sen hedelmää. 22 Joka vaimon löysi, se onnen löysi, sai Herralta mielisuosion. 23 Köyhä puhuu pyydellen, mutta rikas vastaa tylysti. 24 Häviökseen mies on monien ystävä, mutta on myös ystäviä, veljiäkin uskollisempia.
Haitian(i) 1 Moun k'ap viv apa se tèt li ase li konnen. Li move sou tout moun ki vle ba li bon konsèy. 2 Moun sòt pa pran plezi l' nan chache konprann. Tou sa l'ap chache se fè moun konprann li gen lespri. 3 Y'ap meprize moun k'ap fè mechanste. Moun ki pa fè respè tèt yo gen pou yo wont. 4 Pawòl moun ki gen konprann fon kou lanmè, fre tankou yon sous k'ap koule tout tan. 5 Sa pa bon pou ou pran pou moun mechan, ni pou ou enpoze yo rann moun inonsan jistis. 6 Depi moun sòt ap pale, se kont l'ap chache. Si ou koute pawòl nan bouch li, w'a ba l' kou. 7 Bouch moun sòt se kondannasyon li. Pawòl ki soti nan bouch li tounen pèlen pou li. 8 Tripotay dous nan zòrèy moun ki vle tande yo. Sa mache nan san yo. 9 Moun ki parese nan travay li se menmman parèyman ak moun k'ap defèt sa k'ap fèt. 10 Seyè a, se yon gwo ranpa byen solid. Se la moun k'ap mache dwat yo kouri al chache pwoteksyon. 11 Pou moun rich yo, byen yo tankou yon ranpa byen solid. Yo mete nan tèt yo se sa k'ap pwoteje yo. 12 Lè w'ap fè awogans, yo pa lwen kraze ou. Lè ou fè kò ou piti, y'a fè lwanj ou. 13 Moun ki prese reponn san koute sa y'ap di l', se moun sòt li ye. Li gen pou l' wont. 14 Lè yon moun anvi viv, sa ede l' anpil lè li malad. Men, si li dekouraje, ki moun ki ka remoute kouraj li? 15 Yon moun lespri ap toujou chache gen plis konesans. Zòrèy moun ki gen bon konprann toujou pare pou l' ka konnen plis toujou. 16 Kado ou fè louvri chemen pou ou toupatou, ata chemen ki mennen lakay grannèg. 17 Moun ki pale anvan nan tribinal toujou sanble li gen rezon. Lè lòt moun lan parèt, kat je kontre, manti kaba. 18 Lè de grannèg gen kont, jij yo fè tiraj osò pou konnen kilès pou yo bay rezon. 19 Li pi fasil pou mete lapè nan yon gwo lavil pase pou ou rekonsilye de frè ki nan kont. Lè yo fache, kè yonn se pòt prizon pou lòt. 20 Rekonpans yon moun chita sou sa ki soti nan bouch li. 21 Sa ou di ka lavi pou ou, li ka lanmò pou ou. Sa ou chwazi, se sa w'ap jwenn. 22 Lè yon nonm jwenn yon bon madanm, se yon bon bagay. Se yon gwo favè Seyè a fè l'. 23 Lè yon pòv ap pale, li toujou nan tanpri souple. Men, moun rich toujou ap rele sou moun. 24 Gen zanmi se pran yo vin pran. Men, gen zanmi tou yo plis pase frè.
Hungarian(i) 1 A maga kivánsága után megy az agyas ember, minden igaz bölcseség ellen dühösködik. 2 Nem gyönyörködik a bolond az értelemben, hanem abban, hogy az õ elméje nyilvánvalóvá legyen. 3 Mikor eljõ az istentelen, eljõ a megútálás; és a szidalommal a gyalázat. 4 Mély víz az ember szájának beszéde, buzogó patak a bölcseségnek kútfeje. 5 A gonosz személyének kedvezni nem jó, elfordítani az igazat az ítéletben. 6 A bolondnak beszédei szereznek versengést, és az õ szája ütésekért kiált. 7 A bolondnak szája az õ romlása, és az õ beszédei az õ életének tõre. 8 A susárlónak beszédei hizelkedõk; és azok a szív belsejét áthatják. 9 A ki lágyan viseli magát az õ dolgában, testvére annak, a ki tönkre tesz. 10 Erõs torony az Úrnak neve, ahhoz folyamodik az igaz, és bátorságos lészen. 11 A gazdagnak vagyona az õ erõs városa, és mint a magas kõfal, az õ gondolatja szerint. 12 A megromlás elõtt felfuvalkodik az ember elméje; a tisztesség elõtt pedig alázatosság van. 13 A ki felel valamit, míg meg nem hallja, ez bolondság és gyalázatos rá nézve. 14 A férfiú lelke elviseli a maga erõtlenségét; de a megtört lelket ki viseli el? 15 Az eszesnek elméje tudományt szerez, és a bölcseknek füle tudományt keres. 16 Az embernek ajándéka szabad útat szerez néki, és a nagyoknak orczája elé viszi õt. 17 Igaza van annak, a ki elsõ a perben; mígnem eljõ az õ peresfele, és megvizsgálja õt. 18 A versengéseket megszünteti a sorsvetés, és az erõseket elválasztja. 19 A felingerelt atyafiú [erõsb] az erõs városnál, és [az ilyen] versengések olyanok, mint a vár zárja. 20 A férfi szájának hasznával elégedik meg az õ belseje; az õ beszédének jövedelmével lakik jól. 21 Mind a halál, mind az élet a nyelv hatalmában [van], és a [miképen] kiki szeret azzal élni, [úgy ]eszi annak gyümölcsét. 22 Megnyerte a jót, a ki talált feleséget, és vett jóakaratot az Úrtól! 23 Alázatos kérést szól a szegény; a gazdag pedig keményen felel. 24 Az ember, a kinek [sok] barátja van, széttöretik; de van barát, a ki ragaszkodóbb a testvérnél.
Indonesian(i) 1 Orang yang memisahkan diri dari orang lain berarti memperhatikan diri sendiri saja; setiap pendapat orang lain ia bantah. 2 Orang bodoh tidak suka diberi pengertian; ia hanya ingin membeberkan isi hatinya. 3 Dosa dan kehinaan berjalan bersama; kalau sudah tercela, pasti pula dinista. 4 Perkataan orang dapat merupakan sumber kebijaksanaan dalam seperti samudra, segar seperti air yang mengalir. 5 Tidak baik berpihak kepada orang durhaka dan menindas orang yang tak bersalah. 6 Jika orang bodoh berbicara, ia menimbulkan pertengkaran dan minta dihajar. 7 Ucapan orang bodoh menghancurkan dirinya; ia terjerat oleh kata-katanya. 8 Fitnah itu enak rasanya; orang suka menelannya. 9 Orang yang melalaikan tugasnya sama buruknya dengan orang yang suka merusak. 10 TUHAN itu seperti menara yang kuat; ke sanalah orang jujur pergi dan mendapat tempat yang aman. 11 Tetapi orang kaya menyangka hartanyalah yang melindungi dia seperti tembok tinggi dan kuat di sekeliling kota. 12 Orang yang angkuh akan jatuh, orang yang rendah hati akan dihormati. 13 Menjawab sebelum mendengar adalah perbuatan yang bodoh dan tercela. 14 Oleh kemauan untuk hidup, orang dapat menanggung penderitaan; hilang kemauan itu, hilang juga segala harapan. 15 Orang berbudi selalu haus akan pengetahuan; orang bijaksana selalu ingin mendapat ajaran. 16 Hadiah membuka jalan dan mengantar orang kepada orang-orang besar. 17 Pembicara pertama dalam sidang pengadilan selalu nampaknya benar, tapi pernyataannya mulai diuji apabila datang lawannya. 18 Dengan undian, pertikaian dapat diakhiri, bahkan pertentangan antara orang berkuasa pun dapat diselesaikan. 19 Saudara yang telah disakiti hatinya lebih sukar didekati daripada kota yang kuat; pertengkaran bagaikan palang gerbang kota yang berbenteng. 20 Bagi kata-kata yang diucapkan ada akibat yang harus dirasakan. 21 Lidah mempunyai kuasa untuk menyelamatkan hidup atau merusaknya; orang harus menanggung akibat ucapannya. 22 Orang yang mendapat istri, mendapat keuntungan; istri adalah karunia dari TUHAN. 23 Orang miskin memohon dengan sopan; orang kaya menjawab dengan bentakan. 24 Ada sahabat yang tidak setia, ada pula yang lebih akrab dari saudara.
Italian(i) 1 Colui che si separa cerca le sue cupidità, E schernisce ogni legge e ragione. 2 Lo stolto non si diletta nella prudenza, Ma in ciò che il cuor suo si manifesti. 3 Quando viene un empio, viene anche lo sprezzo, E il vituperio con ignominia. 4 Le parole della bocca dell’uomo eccellente sono acque profonde; La fonte di sapienza è un torrente che sgorga. 5 Egli non è bene d’aver riguardo alla qualità dell’empio, Per far torto al giusto nel giudicio. 6 Le labbra dello stolto entrano in contesa, E la sua bocca chiama le percosse. 7 La bocca dello stolto è la sua ruina, E le sue labbra sono il laccio dell’anima sua. 8 Le parole di chi va bisbigliando paiono lusinghevoli; Ma scendono fin nell’interiora del ventre. 9 Chi si porta rimessamente nel suo lavoro, È fratello dell’uomo dissipatore. 10 Il Nome del Signore è una forte torre; Il giusto vi ricorrerà, e sarà in salvo in luogo elevato. 11 I beni del ricco son la sua città di fortezza, E come un alto muro alla sua immaginazione. 12 Il cuor dell’uomo s’innalza avanti la ruina; Ma l’umiltà va davanti alla gloria. 13 Chi fa risposta prima che abbia udito, Ciò gli è pazzia e vituperio. 14 Lo spirito dell’uomo sostiene l’infermità di esso; Ma chi solleverà lo spirito afflitto? 15 Il cuor dell’uomo intendente acquista scienza; E l’orecchio de’ savi cerca conoscimento. 16 Il presente dell’uomo gli fa far largo, E lo conduce davanti a’ grandi. 17 Chi è il primo a piatir la sua causa ha ragione; Ma il suo compagno vien poi, ed esamina quello ch’egli ha detto. 18 La sorte fa cessar le liti, E fa gli spartimenti fra i potenti. 19 Il fratello offeso è più inespugnabile che una forte città; E le contese tra fratelli son come le sbarre di un palazzo. 20 Il ventre dell’uomo sarà saziato del frutto della sua bocca; Egli sarà saziato della rendita delle sue labbra. 21 Morte e vita sono in poter della lingua; E chi l’ama mangerà del frutto di essa. 22 Chi ha trovata moglie ha trovata una buona cosa, Ed ha ottenuto favor del Signore. 23 Il povero parla supplichevolmente; Ma il ricco risponde duramente. 24 Un uomo che ha degli amici deve portarsi da amico; E vi è tale amico, che è più congiunto che un fratello.
ItalianRiveduta(i) 1 Chi si separa dagli altri cerca la propria soddisfazione e s’arrabbia contro tutto ciò ch’è profittevole. 2 Lo stolto prende piacere, non nella prudenza, ma soltanto nel manifestare ciò che ha nel cuore. 3 Quando viene l’empio, viene anche lo sprezzo; e, con la vergogna, viene l’obbrobrio. 4 Le parole della bocca d’un uomo sono acque profonde; la fonte di sapienza è un rivo che scorre perenne. 5 Non è bene aver per l’empio de’ riguardi personali, per far torto al giusto nel giudizio. 6 Le labbra dello stolto menano alle liti, e la sua bocca chiama le percosse. 7 La bocca dello stolto è la sua rovina, e le sue labbra sono un laccio per l’anima sua. 8 Le parole del maldicente son come ghiottonerie, e penetrano fino nell’intimo delle viscere. 9 Anche colui ch’è infingardo nel suo lavoro è fratello del dissipatore. 10 Il nome dell’Eterno è una forte torre; il giusto vi corre, e vi trova un alto rifugio. 11 I beni del ricco son la sua città forte; son come un’alta muraglia… nella sua immaginazione. 12 Prima della rovina, il cuor dell’uomo s’innalza, ma l’umiltà precede la gloria. 13 Chi risponde prima d’aver ascoltato, mostra la sua follia, e rimane confuso. 14 Lo spirito dell’uomo lo sostiene quand’egli è infermo; ma lo spirito abbattuto chi lo solleverà? 15 Il cuore dell’uomo intelligente acquista la scienza, e l’orecchio dei savi la cerca. 16 I regali che uno fa gli apron la strada e gli dànno adito ai grandi. 17 Il primo a perorare la propria causa par che abbia ragione; ma vien l’altra parte, e scruta quello a fondo. 18 La sorte fa cessare le liti e decide fra i grandi. 19 Un fratello offeso è più inespugnabile d’una città forte; e le liti tra fratelli son come le sbarre d’un castello. 20 Col frutto della sua bocca l’uomo sazia il corpo; si sazia col provento delle sue labbra. 21 Morte e vita sono in potere della lingua; chi l’ama ne mangerà i frutti. 22 Chi ha trovato moglie ha trovato un bene e ha ottenuto un favore dall’Eterno. 23 Il povero parla supplicando, il ricco risponde con durezza. 24 Chi ha molti amici li ha per sua disgrazia; ma v’è tale amico, ch’è più affezionato d’un fratello.

Lithuanian(i) 1 Dėl savo užgaidų žmogus atsiskiria nuo kitų ir prieštarauja tam, kas teisinga. 2 Kvailiui nerūpi išmintis, o tik parodyti, kas yra jo širdyje. 3 Kai ateina nedorėlis, ateina ir panieka, o su nešlove ateina gėda. 4 Žmogaus žodžiai yra gilus vanduo, išminties šaltinis­tekanti srovė. 5 Negerai būti šališku nedorėliui ir teisme nuskriausti teisųjį. 6 Kvailio lūpos sukelia vaidus, ir jis savo burna prašosi mušamas. 7 Kvailio burna jį pražudo; jo lūpos­pinklės jo sielai. 8 Apkalbos yra lyg skanėstas, kuris pasiekia žmogaus vidurius. 9 Kas tingi dirbti, yra naikintojo brolis. 10 Viešpaties vardas­tvirtas bokštas, teisieji bėga į jį ir yra saugūs. 11 Turtuolio lobis yra jo įtvirtintas miestas, ir jo nuosavybė yra kaip aukšta siena jam. 12 Prieš sunaikinimą žmogaus širdis pasididžiuoja, prieš pagerbimą eina nuolankumas. 13 Kas atsako, iki galo neišklausęs, tas kvailas ir begėdis. 14 Žmogaus dvasia palaiko jį negalioje, bet kas pakels sužeistą dvasią? 15 Supratingojo širdis įgyja pažinimo ir išmintingojo ausis pažinimo ieško. 16 Dovanos plačiai atidaro žmogui duris pas didžiūnus. 17 Pirmasis, kalbąs teisme, atrodo teisus, kol ateina jo kaimynas ir išklausinėja jį. 18 Metant burtus pašalinami nesutarimai ir padaromas sprendimas tarp galingųjų. 19 Įžeistas brolis yra kaip įtvirtintas miestas; ginčai atskiria lyg pilių užkaiščiai. 20 Žmogus pripildys pilvą savo burnos vaisiais, pasisotins savo lūpų derliumi. 21 Mirtis ir gyvenimas yra liežuvio galioje; kas jį mėgsta, valgys jo vaisių. 22 Kas randa gerą žmoną, randa laimės ir Viešpaties palankumą. 23 Beturtis kalba maldaudamas, o turtingas atsako šiurkščiai. 24 Kas nori turėti draugų, turi pats būti draugiškas; būna draugų, artimesnių už brolį.
PBG(i) 1 Człowiek swej myśli, szuka tego, co mu się podoba, a w każdą rzecz wtrąca się. 2 Nie kocha się głupi w roztropności, ale w tem, co mu objawia serce jego. 3 Gdy przychodzi niezbożny, przychodzi też wzgarda, a z mężem lekkomyślnym urąganie. 4 Słowa ust męża mądrego są jako wody głębokie, a źródło mądrości jako potok wylewający. 5 Nie dobra to, mieć wzgląd na osobę niezbożnego, aby był podwrócony sprawiedliwy w sądzie. 6 Wargi głupiego zmierzają do swaru, a usta jego do bitwy wyzywają. 7 Usta głupiego są upadkiem jego, a wargi jego sidłem duszy jego. 8 Słowa obmówcy są jako słowa zranionych, a wszakże przenikają do wnętrzności żywota. 9 Kto niedbały w sprawach swoich, bratem jest utratnika. 10 Imię Pańskie jest mocną wieżą; sprawiedliwy się do niej uciecze, a wywyższony będzie. 11 Majętność bogatego jest miastem jego mocnem, a jako mur wysoki w myśli jego. 12 Przed upadkiem podnosi się serce człowiecze, a sławę uprzedza poniżenie. 13 Kto odpowiada, pierwej niż wysłucha, głupstwo to jego i zelżywość. 14 Duch męża znosi niemoc swoję; ale ducha utrapionego któż zniesie? 15 Serce rozumne nabywa umiejętności, a ucho mądrych szuka jej. 16 Dar człowieczy plac mu czyni, i przed wielmożnych przywodzi go. 17 Sprawiedliwym zda się ten, kto pierwszy w sprawie swojej; ale gdy przychodzi bliźni jego, dochodzi go. 18 Los uśmierza zwady, i między możnymi rozsądek czyni. 19 Brat krzywdą urażony trudniejszy nad miasto niedobyte, a swary są jako zawory u pałacu. 20 Z owocu ust każdego nasycon bywa żywot jego; urodzajem warg swych będzie nasycony. 21 Śmierć i żywot jest w mocy języka, a kto go miłuje, będzie jadł owoce jego. 22 Kto znalazł żonę, znalazł rzecz dobrą, i dostąpił łaski od Pana. 23 Ubogi pokornie mówi; ale bogaty odpowiada surowie. 24 Człowiek, który ma przyjaciół, ma się obchodzić po przyjacielsku, ponieważ przyjaciel bywa przychylniejszy nad brata.
Portuguese(i) 1 Aquele que vive isolado busca seu próprio desejo; insurge-se contra a verdadeira sabedoria. 2 O tolo não toma prazer no entendimento, mas tão somente em revelar a sua opinião. 3 Quando vem o ímpio, vem também o desprezo; e com a desonra vem o opróbrio. 4 Águas profundas são as palavras da boca do homem; e a fonte da sabedoria é um ribeiro que corre. 5 Não é bom ter respeito à pessoa do ímpio, nem privar o justo do seu direito. 6 Os lábios do tolo entram em contendas, e a sua boca clama por açoites. 7 A boca do tolo é a sua própria destruição, e os seus lábios um laço para a sua alma. 8 As palavras do difamador são como bocados doces, que penetram até o íntimo das entranhas. 9 Aquele que é remisso na sua obra é irmão do que é destruidor. 10 Torre forte é o nome do Senhor; para ela corre o justo, e está seguro. 11 Os bens do rico são a sua cidade forte, e como um muro alto na sua imaginação. 12 Antes da ruína eleva-se o coração do homem; e adiante da honra vai a humildade. 13 Responder antes de ouvir, é estultícia e vergonha. 14 O espírito do homem o sustentará na sua enfermidade; mas ao espírito abatido quem o levantará? 15 O coração do entendido adquire conhecimento; e o ouvido dos sábios busca conhecimento; 16 O presente do homem alarga-lhe o caminho, e leva-o à presença dos grandes. 17 O que primeiro começa o seu pleito parece justo; até que vem o outro e o examina. 18 A sorte faz cessar os pleitos, e decide entre os poderosos. 19 um irmão ajudado pelo irmão é como uma cidade fortificada; é forte como os ferrolhos dum castelo. 20 O homem se fartará do fruto da sua boca; dos renovos dos seus lábios se fartará. 21 A morte e a vida estão no poder da língua; e aquele que a ama comerá do seu fruto. 22 Quem encontra uma esposa acha uma coisa boa; e alcança o favor do Senhor. 23 O pobre fala com rogos; mas o rico responde com durezas. 24 O homem que tem muitos amigos, tem-nos para a sua ruína; mas há um amigo que é mais chegado do que um irmão.
Romanian(i) 1 Cel ursuz caută ce -i place lui, se supără de orice lucru bun. - 2 Nebunului nu -i este de învăţătură, ci vrea să arate ce ştie el. - 3 Cînd vine cel rău, vine şi dispreţul; şi odată cu ruşinea, vine şi ocara. - 4 Cuvintele gurii unui om sînt ca nişte ape adînci; izvorul înţelepciunii este ca un şivoi care curge într'una. - 5 Nu este bine să ai în vedere faţa celui rău, ca să nedreptăţeşti pe cel neprihănit la judecată. - 6 Vorbele nebunului aduc ceartă, şi gura lui înjură pînă stîrneşte lovituri. - 7 Gura nebunului îi aduce pieirea, şi buzele îi sînt o cursă pentru suflet. - 8 Cuvintele bîrfitorului sînt ca prăjiturile: alunecă pînă în fundul măruntaielor. - 9 Cine se leneveşte în lucrul lui este frate cu cel ce nimiceşte. - 10 Numele Domnului este un turn tare; cel neprihănit fuge în el, şi stă la adăpost. - 11 Averea este o cetate întărită pentru cel bogat; în închipuirea lui, ea este un zid înalt. - 12 Înainte de pieire, inima omului se îngîmfă, dar smerenia merge înaintea slavei. - 13 Cine răspunde fără să fi ascultat, face o prostie şi îşi trage ruşinea. - 14 Duhul omului îl sprijineşte la boală; dar duhul doborît de întristare, cine -l va ridica? - 15 O inimă pricepută dobîndeşte ştiinţa, şi urechea celor înţelepţi caută ştiinţa. - 16 Darurile unui om îi fac loc, şi -i deschid intrarea înaintea celor mari. - 17 Cel care vorbeşte întîi în pricina lui, pare că are dreptate, dar vine celalt, şi -l ia la cercetare. - 18 Sorţul pune capăt neînţelegerilor, şi hotărăşte între cei puternici. - 19 Fraţii nedreptăţiţi sînt mai greu de cîştigat decît o cetate întărită, şi certurile lor sînt tot aşa de greu de înlăturat ca zăvoarele unei case împărăteşti. - 20 Din rodul gurii lui îşi satură omul trupul, din venitul buzelor lui se satură. - 21 Moartea şi viaţa sînt în puterea limbii; oricine o iubeşte, îi va mînca roadele. - 22 Cine găseşte o nevastă bună, găseşte fericirea; este un har pe care -l capătă dela Domnul. - 23 Săracul vorbeşte rugîndu-se, dar bogatul răspunde cu asprime. - 24 Cine îşi face mulţi prieteni, îi face spre nenorocirea lui, dar este un prieten care ţine mai mult la tine decît un frate. -
Ukrainian(i) 1 Примхливий шукає сваволі, стає проти всього розумного. 2 Нерозумний не хоче навчатися, а тільки свій ум показати. 3 З приходом безбожного й ганьба приходить, а з легковаженням сором. 4 Слова уст людини глибока вода, джерело премудрости бризкотливий потік. 5 Не добре вважати на обличчя безбожного, щоб праведного повалити на суді. 6 Уста нерозумного тягнуть до сварки, а слова його кличуть бійки. 7 Язик нерозумного загибіль для нього, а уста його то тенета на душу його. 8 Слова обмовника мов ті присмаки, і вони сходять у нутро утроби. 9 Теж недбалий у праці своїй то брат марнотратнику. 10 Господнє Ім'я сильна башта: до неї втече справедливий і буде безпечний. 11 Маєток багатому місто твердинне його, і немов міцний мур ув уяві його. 12 Перед загибіллю серце людини високо несеться, перед славою ж скромність. 13 Хто відповідає на слово, ще поки почув, то глупота та сором йому! 14 Дух дійсного мужа виносить терпіння своє, а духа прибитого хто піднесе? 15 Серце розумне знання набуває, і вухо премудрих шукає знання. 16 Дарунок людини виводить із утиску, і провадить її до великих людей. 17 Перший у сварці своїй уважає себе справедливим, але прийде противник його та й дослідить його. 18 Жереб перериває сварки, та відділює сильних один від одного. 19 Розлючений брат протиставиться більше за місто твердинне, а сварки, немов засуви замку. 20 Із плоду уст людини насичується її шлунок, вона насичується плодом уст своїх. 21 Смерть та життя у владі язика, хто ж кохає його, його плід поїдає. 22 Хто жінку чеснотну знайшов, знайшов той добро, і милість отримав від Господа. 23 Убогий говорить благально, багатий же відповідає зухвало. 24 Є товариші на розбиття, та є й приятель, більше від брата прив'язаний.
