Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

3. Proverbs from Solomon (10:1–22:16)4. Sayings from wise men (22:17–24:22) * Introduction to the sayings (22:17–21) * The sayings (22:22–24:22)Chapter 22 concludes the section of the book written by Solomon that is filled mainly with short, individual proverbs. Solomon wrote all 375 proverbs in 10:1–22:16. In 22:17–21, it seems that Solomon himself introduces a section of proverbs written by an unknown group of people called “the wise ones.” Most of the proverbs of “the wise ones,” found in 22:22–24:22, are longer than one verse. Each of these longer proverbs will be marked in the notes.
Chapters 16–22 mostly contain proverbs in which the second of two parallel clauses completes, emphasizes, or qualifies the idea of the first clause. Chapter 22 also contains contrasting parallelism (22:3, 12) and parallelism in which both clauses have the same meaning for emphasis (22:1, 24, 26). (See: figs-parallelism)
In 22:20–21 and 27, the author uses rhetorical questions to emphasize the importance of what he is saying. (See: figs-rquestion)
