Proverbs 10 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

The proverbs ^H4912 of Solomon ^H8010.

A wise ^H2450 son ^H1121 makes ^H8055 a father ^H1 glad ^H8055,

But a foolish ^H3684 son ^H1121 is a grief ^H8424 to his mother ^H517.

[fn]Ill-gotten ^H7562 gains ^H214 do not benefit ^H3276,

But righteousness ^H6666 rescues ^H5337 from death ^H4194.

The LORD ^H3068 will not allow the [fn]righteous ^H6662 to hunger ^H7456,

But He will [fn]reject ^H1920 the craving ^H1942 of the wicked ^H7563.

Poor ^H7326 is one who works ^H6213 with [fn]a lazy ^H7423 hand ^H3709,

But the hand ^H3027 of the diligent ^H2742 makes ^H6238 rich ^H6238.

He who gathers ^H103 in ^H103 summer ^H7019 is a son ^H1121 who acts ^H7919 wisely ^H7919,

But he who sleeps ^H7290 in harvest ^H7105 is a son ^H1121 who acts ^H954 shamefully ^H954.

Blessings ^H1293 are on the head ^H7218 of the righteous ^H6662,

But the mouth ^H6310 of the wicked ^H7563 conceals ^H3680 violence ^H2555.

The mentioning ^H2143 of the righteous ^H6662 is a blessing ^H1293,

But the name ^H8034 of the wicked ^H7563 will rot ^H7537.

The wise ^H2450 of heart ^H3820 will receive ^H3947 commands ^H4687,

But [fn]a babbling ^H8193 fool ^H191 will come to ruin ^H3832.

One who walks ^H1980 in integrity ^H8537 walks ^H1980 securely ^H983,

But one who perverts ^H6140 his ways ^H1870 will be found ^H3045 out.

He who winks ^H7169 the eye ^H5869 causes ^H5414 trouble ^H6094,

And [fn]a babbling ^H8193 fool ^H191 will come to ruin ^H3832.

The mouth ^H6310 of the righteous ^H6662 is a fountain ^H4726 of life ^H2416,

But the mouth ^H6310 of the wicked ^H7563 conceals ^H3680 violence ^H2555.

Hatred ^H8135 stirs ^H5782 up ^H5782 strife ^H4090,

But love ^H160 covers ^H3680 all ^H3605 offenses ^H6588.

On the lips ^H8193 of the discerning ^H995, wisdom ^H2451 is found ^H4672,

But a rod ^H7626 is for the back ^H1460 of him who ^H2638 has ^H2638 no ^H2638 [fn]sense ^H3820.

Wise ^H2450 people ^H2450 store ^H6845 up knowledge ^H1847,

But with the mouth ^H6310 of the foolish ^H191, ruin ^H4288 is at ^H7138 hand ^H7138.

The rich ^H6223 person’s ^H6223 wealth ^H1952 is his [fn]fortress ^H7151 H5797,

The ruin ^H4288 of the poor ^H1800 is their poverty ^H7389.

The [fn]wages ^H6468 of the righteous ^H6662 is life ^H2416,

The income ^H8393 of the wicked ^H7563, punishment ^H2403.

One who is on the path ^H734 of life ^H2416 follows ^H8104 instruction ^H4148,

But one who ignores ^H5800 a rebuke ^H8433 goes ^H8582 astray ^H8582.

One who conceals ^H3680 hatred ^H8135 has lying ^H8267 lips ^H8193,

And one who spreads ^H3318 slander ^H1681 is a fool ^H3684.

When there are many ^H7230 words ^H1697, wrongdoing ^H6588 is unavoidable ^H2308 H3808,

But one who restrains ^H2820 his lips ^H8193 is wise ^H7919.

The tongue ^H3956 of the righteous ^H6662 is like choice ^H977 silver ^H3701,

The heart ^H3820 of the wicked ^H7563 is worth little ^H4592.

The lips ^H8193 of the righteous ^H6662 feed ^H7462 many ^H7227,

But fools ^H191 die ^H4191 for lack ^H2638 of [fn]understanding ^H3820.

It is the blessing ^H1293 of the LORD ^H3068 that makes ^H6238 rich ^H6238,

And He adds ^H3254 no ^H3808 sorrow ^H6089 to it.

Doing ^H6213 wickedness ^H2154 is like sport ^H7814 to a fool ^H3684,

And so is wisdom ^H2451 to a person ^H376 of understanding ^H8394.

What ^H4034 the wicked ^H7563 fears ^H4034 will come ^H935 upon him,

But the desire ^H8378 of the righteous ^H6662 will be granted ^H5414.

When the whirlwind ^H5492 passes ^H5674, the wicked ^H7563 is no ^H369 more ^H369,

But the righteous ^H6662 has an everlasting ^H5769 foundation ^H3247.

Like vinegar ^H2558 to the teeth ^H8127 and smoke ^H6227 to the eyes ^H5869,

So ^H3651 is the [fn]lazy ^H6102 one ^H6102 to those who send ^H7971 him.

The fear ^H3374 of the LORD ^H3068 prolongs ^H3254 [fn]life ^H3117,

But the years ^H8141 of the wicked ^H7563 will be shortened ^H7114.

The hope ^H8431 of the righteous ^H6662 is gladness ^H8057,

But the expectation ^H8615 of the wicked ^H7563 perishes ^H6.

The way ^H1870 of the LORD ^H3068 is a stronghold ^H4581 for the upright ^H8537,

But ruin ^H4288 to the workers ^H6466 of injustice ^H205.

The righteous ^H6662 will never ^H5769 H1077 be shaken ^H4131,

But the wicked ^H7563 will not live ^H7931 in ^H7931 the land ^H776.

The mouth ^H6310 of the righteous ^H6662 flows ^H5107 with wisdom ^H2451,

But the perverted ^H8419 tongue ^H3956 will be cut ^H3772 out.

The lips ^H8193 of the righteous ^H6662 know ^H3045 what ^H7522 is ^H7522 acceptable ^H7522,

But the mouth ^H6310 of the wicked ^H7563, what ^H8419 is ^H8419 perverted ^H8419.
