This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
22 A good reputation is more desirable than great wealth,
≈ and good favour more than gold or silver.
2 Rich and poor meet each other at their end.
≈ Yahweh is the creator of all of them.
3 A prudent person notices trouble and avoids it,
whereas naive people just blunder onwards and suffer.
4 The consequence of humility and respecting and honouring Yahweh
→ is riches and honour and life.
5 Thorns and traps are on the perverse person’s path,
^ but those who guard their own self-esteem keep far away from them.
6 Train your children in the way they should go,
→ then when they’re older they won’t turn away from it.
7 A rich person rules over those who are poor,
≈ and the one who borrows is enslaved to the lender.
8 The person who sows evil will harvest trouble,
and the power from his anger will end.
9 Generous people will be blessed,
because they share their food with the poor.
10 Drive away a mocker and then strife will disappear,
→ and abuse and disputes will stop.
11 The person who values pure motives, who speaks graciously,
→ will have the king for a friend.
12 Yahweh’s eyes guard knowledge,
^ but he overthrows the plans of those who behave treacherously.
13 The lazy person says, “There’s a lion outside—
→ I’ll be killed if I go outside!”
14 The mouth of a loose woman is a deep pit.
→ Those who are cursed by Yahweh will fall into it.
15 Foolish ideas are natural in the mind of a youth.
→ but the rod bringing discipline drives it far from them.
16 Those who oppress the poor or give to the rich, in order to make a profit,
→ will just end up in poverty themselves.
