ULT PRO Chapter 19

◄ PRO 19 ► ║ ©

19 Better is one who is poor who walks in his integrity

than one who is crooked in his lips and he is a stupid one.

2 Also, a life with no knowledge is not good,

and one who hurries with feet sins.

3 The folly of a man will lead astray his way,

and his heart will rage against Yahweh.

4 Wealth adds many companions,

but a lowly one is separated from his companions.

5 A witness of falsehoods will not be blameless,

and he who breathes out lies will not escape.

6 Many will entreat the face of a noble,

and everyone is the friend of a man of gift.

7 All the brothers of one who is poor hate him;

how much more do his friends go far away from him!

He pursues with words; they are not.

8 One who acquires heart loves his life;

one who keeps understanding is to find good.

9 A witness of falsehoods will not be blameless,

and one who breathes out lies will perish.

10 Luxury is not suitable for a stupid one;

how much less for a slave to rule over princes!

11 The insight of a man makes his nose long,

and his splendor is to pass over a transgression.

12 The rage of a king is a growling like the young lion,

but his favor is like dew on vegetation.

13 A stupid son is destruction to his father,

and a continual dripping, the quarrels of a wife.

14 A house and wealth are the inheritance of fathers,

but from Yahweh is a wife who has insight.

15 Laziness causes deep sleep to fall,

and a life of idleness is hungry.

16 One who keeps a commandment keeps his life;

one who despises his ways will die.

17 One who is gracious to a lowly one lends to Yahweh,

and his dealing he will repay to him.

18 Discipline your son when there is hope,

and do not lift up your soul to put him to death.

19 One great of heat lifts up a fine;

for if you rescue, then you will continue to do so again.

20 Listen to counsel and accept instruction,

so that you will become wise in your end.

21 Many are the plans in the heart of a man,

but the counsel of Yahweh, it will stand.

22 The desire of a man is his covenant faithfulness,

and better is one who is poor than a man of lying.

23 The fear of Yahweh is to life

and the satisfied one will stay overnight;

he will not be visited by evil.

24 A lazy one hides his hand in the dish;

he will not even return it to his mouth.

25 Strike a mocker and a naive one will become prudent,

and rebuke an understanding one, he will understand knowledge.

26 One who does violence to a father, who causes a mother to flee,

is a son who causes shame and causes embarrassment.

27 My son, cease to hear instruction

to stray from the words of knowledge.

28 A witness of worthlessness mocks justice

and the mouth of the wicked ones swallows iniquity.

29 Judgments are prepared for the mockers,

and blows for the back of stupid ones.
