A sensible son heeds what his father tells him,
but a scoffer will not listen to rebuke.
2A good man reaps the fruit of his goodness,
but evil souls come to an untimely end.
3He guards his life who guards His lips:
he who talks freely--it is ruin to him!
4The lazy man has longings, but gets nothing:
the diligent man is amply supplied.
5A good man hates deception:
an evil life is odious and disgraceful.
6Goodness safeguards men of integrity,
but vice is the downfall of sinful men.
7One man pretends to be rich, though he has nothing:
another pretends to be poor, though he has plenty.
8A rich man may buy off his life:
a poor man can ignore the robber’s threat.
9The light of good men shines out bright:
the lamp of bad men will go out.
10’Tis insolence that leads to strife,
but wise men give themselves no airs.
11Wealth won in haste will dwindie,
but, gathered gradually it will grow.
12Hope deferred is sickening
it is new life to have desire fulfilled.
13He who despises God’s decree shall perish:
to stand in awe of God’s command is safety.
14A sage’s teaching is a fount of life,
it shows how to evade the nets of Death.
15A man of tact is popular:
the way fools live stirs up dislike.
16A shrewd man never vaunts his wisdom,
but fools display their folly.
17A careless messenger is a calamity:
with a reliable envoy, all is well.
18Poverty and shame are his who will not take advice,
but he who takes a warning is respected.
19It is delicious to obtain the heart’s desire . . .
but fools hate to give up evil-doing.
20Mix with wise men, and you will be wise,
but a companion of fools will come to grief.
21Misfortune follows up the sinful,
but prosperity will overtake the pious.
22A pious man leaves wealth to his children’s children:
the sinner lays up treasure--to enrich the good!
23Good men enjoy their wealth for many a year,
but bad men perish rapidly.
24He hates his son who fails to ply the rod:
the man who loves his son chastises him.
25The good man has enough to meet his needs:
wicked men are in want of food.
